Chapter 489: Emmanuel

Chapter 489 Aura

Shi Yan stared closely at the two who went out together, and kept rubbing the rag on the table.

Zhao Shangshu saw that the waiter's rag was about to rub onto the plate, and coughed uncontrollably: "Xiao Er, the customers haven't left yet, are you too anxious to clean up the table?"

Shi Yan suddenly came back to his senses, smiled awkwardly at Zhao Shangshu and stepped aside, his eyes still fixed on the door.

If the master finds that Miss Luo has been abducted by Lin Teng after returning from the war—I dare not think about it, the master is too pitiful.

Zhao Shangshu thought of a happy thing: Hey, if Lin Teng is taken by Miss Luo, wouldn't it be half the price to bring Lin Teng here in the future?

Maybe it’s free—ah, that’s a bit greedy to think so, let’s wait for half price first.

Old Shangshu took a sip of hot tea slowly and fell into a beautiful imagination.

Outside the wine shop, the wind was still cold, making people's clothes flutter.

Lin Teng spoke under the light of the moon: "Miss Luo knows about Miss Wang, right?"

Luo Sheng nodded: "Kuer told me."

Lin Teng stated his purpose: "The Wang family is unwilling to report to the officials. The second girl Wang came to find me privately. I told the second girl Wang that if I have any news, I will send it to the restaurant. Send a letter to Second Miss Wang."

Luo Sheng responded without hesitation: "It's a trivial matter, Mr. Lin, don't worry."

"Then thank you Miss Luo." Lin Teng stopped, and the cold moonlight and orange lights intertwined and sprinkled on his body, softening his serious expression a bit, "Miss Luo's wine shop opens at night, when I return home Be safe, too."

"Thank you, Mr. Lin, for reminding me." Luo Sheng hesitated slightly, and asked, "The one who disappeared recently... isn't Miss Wang the only one?"

Lin Teng had surprise in his eyes, and looked at her without speaking for a while.

Luo Sheng explained frankly: "Otherwise Master Lin would not have reminded me specifically, so I guess Master Lin is busy with this recently."

After a brief silence, Lin Teng nodded and admitted: "Miss Luo guessed right. Recently, she has received four reports one after another, all of which are related to the disappearance of the woman. I guess there may be more missing women in fact..."

"Are there any intersections between these women?"

Thinking of Miss Wang, Luo Sheng felt a little heavy.

A young girl disappearing suddenly may have a chance, but if girls disappear one after another, the result may be unimaginable.

Lin Teng shook his head: "So far no intersection has been found. The four missing women, plus Ms. Wang, some are young girls who have not left the court, and some are married women. There is no common origin. One is the daughter of the shopkeeper of a grocery store, One is the wife of a carpenter, the other is a girl from an official family, and the other is a helper in a rich family..."

"Aren't they all beautiful?"

Lin Teng smiled wryly: "No. In fact, women and young children disappear every year in the capital. Most of these people are abducted by human traffickers, but they are mainly concentrated on festivals such as Qixi Festival and Shangyuan. They don't happen so frequently on normal days. As Ms. Luo asked, most of the missing women are good-looking, so they are easy to be targeted by human traffickers. However, after asking their family members about the missing women recently, there are some with outstanding looks, and some with ordinary looks. For example, the daughter of the shopkeeper of the grocery store , because of a birthmark on her face, she couldn't find her husband's family..."

Speaking of these, Lin Teng rubbed his brows.

The five missing women have almost nothing in common, making the investigators seem to have crashed into the fog.

"Have nothing in common?"

Lin Teng pondered for a while, and said: "If I have to talk about something in common, it is that they are about the same age, both nineteen years old."

But this commonality cannot be the key to solving the case. Looking around the capital, there are too many nineteen-year-old girls.

Luo Sheng thought about this, and Fu Zhixin asked; "Did Mr. Lin ask the specific birthdays of several women?"

Lin Teng was taken aback.

The world believes that a person's birth date determines the fate of the person. Except for marriage and other necessary times, it needs to be taken out, and it is usually not mentioned casually.

When the sufferer comes to report the case, he will naturally not even report his birth date, and as a missing person, he will not ask about this.

But Luo Sheng's words seemed like a bolt of lightning splitting the chaos in Lin Teng's mind, making his eyes brighten.

If the missing women were born on the same day in the same year, the direction of investigation would have to be changed.

This may not be an ordinary disappearance case!

The feeling of seeing the sun through the clouds made Lin Teng feel excited, and he habitually reached out to give him a high-five with the person who reminded him.

Looking at the man with shining eyes, Luo Sheng was not shy. He gave him a high five and said, "I wish Master Lin to solve the case as soon as possible."

Lin Teng realized that the person in front of him was not his subordinate who was investigating the case with him, and his ears turned red.

He hurriedly put down his hands and put on a serious look: "Thank you, Miss Luo."

"Master Lin is polite. I just mentioned casually that if their birthdays are different, it will not help Master Lin to investigate the case."

Lin Teng still couldn't hold back his excitement, and the exhaustion of the past few days seemed to be swept away: "If it is different, at least one direction has been ruled out. Miss Luo's reminder mainly made me realize that I should not be blinded by experience. There must be something related to the missing woman. In short, I would like to thank Miss Luo, please ask Miss Wang about Miss Wang's birthday, and I will take my leave first."

Seeing Lin Teng striding away, Luo Sheng turned and walked back, and saw Baba standing at the door of the restaurant Shi Yan.

"Why are you standing here?" Luo Sheng asked casually.

Shi Yan laughed and said: "The humble official wants to protect your safety, otherwise we won't be able to explain when our master comes back."

The little guard said so, but he sighed deeply in his heart: It's over, it's over, it took Miss Luo longer to send Lin Teng off than to send off their master.

This shows that Miss Luo and Lin Teng have more to say!

Thinking of the two who used to stand silently under the persimmon tree, the little guard felt desperate, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Luo Sheng had already entered the wine shop.

The next morning, Luo Sheng went to the wine shop, and sent Hongdou to Wang's house to deliver a post, inviting Miss Wang to come and play.

The Wang family is in a low mood because of Miss Wang's disappearance, but they dare not stop Miss Luo's invitation. Miss Wang went out smoothly and came to the restaurant to meet Luo Sheng.

As soon as she saw Luo Sheng, Miss Wang couldn't wait to ask: "Miss Luo, is there any news about my sister from Master Lin?"

"Not yet. Master Lin asked me to ask about Sister Ling's birthday."

Even though Miss Wang was disappointed, she quickly said, "My sister is nineteen years old and was born on the seventh day of July. Why does Master Lin ask this?"

Luo Sheng's heart was shaken, and he couldn't care less about answering Miss Wang's question.

At the seventh day of the seventh month—

This is the birthday of the former her, Princess Qingyang.

It is also the birthday of her, Miss Luo.

The only difference is the year of birth.
