Shanghai.
This summer seemed to be unusually hot. Zhang Xiaoxi glanced at her cell phone after exercise and finally couldn't stand the slimy skin on her body and took a shower.
Twenty minutes later, she walked out of the bathroom and subconsciously picked up her phone to look at the screen. Suddenly, she saw an additional WeChat message.
Zhang Xiaoxi unlocked it immediately and clicked on the source of the message.
In the end, it was indeed sent by Lu Jia.
She subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief, but she hadn't completely relaxed yet. After seeing the words on the screen, Zhang Xiaoxi paused in confusion.
Lu Jia unexpectedly didn't answer any of her questions. Instead, she suddenly asked Zhang Xiaoxi to do another divination for Lu Jia.
... Why would he say that for no reason?
"Jiajia, what do you mean? Did you encounter something?"
"Is it convenient for you to reply to me?"
... no reply.
There were only a few minutes left, but Zhang Xiaoxi couldn't see the message and reply in time. As a result, Lu Jia couldn't be contacted.
Zhang Xiaoxi had a very bad feeling. The difference in Lu Jia's behavior made her acutely aware that something might have happened to her!
What was terrifying was that she couldn't even ask Zhang Xiaoxi for help!
Zhang Xiaoxi suddenly felt dizzy. She didn't even have time to dry her hair. She immediately opened her contact book and found Lu Jia's phone number. She dialed it.
The phone had been ringing for a long time. It was now past eight o'clock in the morning. Zhang Xiaoxi thought that Lu Jia's family might have gone out, so she decided to hang up and ask someone else.
However, just as he was about to press the button, a female voice came from the other end of the phone." Hello, who is it?"
Zhang Xiaoxi immediately put the phone to her ear." Auntie, I'm Lu Jia's classmate Zhang Xiaoxi. Has Lu Jia contacted you these past few days? I don't think I can reach her."
Zhou Xiuli's tone was gentle and slow." Classmate, Lu Jia has been traveling to the United States for the past few days. What do you want from her?"
“……”
Zhang Xiaoxi paused. Although she had heard from Lu Jia that her relationship with her mother wasn't very close, she was still very surprised that Lu Jia's mother didn't know anything, let alone that she didn't know that she was the partner who was originally going to go to America with Lu Jia.
Zhang Xiaoxi had no choice but to spend some time explaining the situation to the other party." Auntie, I originally wanted to go to America with Lu Jia, but I…had something to do at the last minute and couldn't go."
What happened later was a little strange, so Zhang Xiaoxi could only explain it in another way. She said that Lu Jia replied only one day later, and the content of her words was very strange. She felt very worried.
Zhou Xiuli hesitated." It can't be. Since she replied to you, there shouldn't be anything serious, right?"
"Lu Jia doesn't like to talk to me. I asked her on WeChat that she must be impatient…I guess she's just too busy. Why don't you take a look at the situation? It's not good to make mistakes."
“……”
Lu Jia's mother couldn't explain clearly, and Zhang Xiaoxi had no choice but to hang up the phone worriedly and think about what she could do now.
It was difficult to explain the matter between the two of them with "scientific" logic. Lu Jia replied on WeChat again. Even if Zhang Xiaoxi went to the police, she might not be able to file a case.
To be honest, even Zhang Xiaoxi herself could not fully believe the accuracy of her pinching Little Liuren.
If it weren't for the fact that she had taken the test countless times and most of the results were "medium" and "severe," she wouldn't have decided to cancel this trip to the United States so firmly.
This time, Zhang Xiaoxi didn't intend to strangle Lu Jia. She decided to give up believing in such superstitious behavior.
As long as there was hope, she did not intend to give up.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoxi immediately opened WeChat and sent a message to Lu Jia." Jiajia, that person probably doesn't understand Chinese. If you encounter danger, send me an emoji with a 'smile of death'."

Langley, Virginia.
The marked message was quickly transmitted to the superior, all the way unimpeded to Agent Dominica Skye.
As soon as he saw the surveillance footage, even though the other party had disguised himself as inconspicuously as possible, they were immediately sure that this was the person they were looking for-Caspar Phoenix!
No one could escape the eyes of the System, not even a former outstanding agent of the Bureau of Investigation!
Dominica and the rest of the team were immediately ready to board a dedicated plane to Las Vegas.
This time, Dominica, who was on the plane, did not dare to be careless. He called up all the relevant surveillance cameras at the BRICS Hotel in Las Vegas through the System and began to check them repeatedly, hoping to get more information from them to avoid being careless again.
Phoenix had something they needed. They had to control him before he could find it from the huge information base. Otherwise, with his intelligence, he would definitely use it to retaliate.
It's just that Dominica doesn't have many videos.
Perhaps due to the small size of the casino hotel, cameras are only distributed at the hotel entrance, parking lot entrance, lobby and main corridor, elevator interior and casino interior.
Click on the first paragraph, and it will be the relevant screen in the elevator.
Phoenix was wearing a beach shirt and shorts that didn't match his temperament at all. He walked in with an Asian woman with an ugly expression. The surveillance cameras couldn't record her voice. After a while, Phoenix suddenly pulled her into his arms and hugged the Asian woman from behind.
The girl was obviously very surprised and dissatisfied. She could even see a clear sense of struggle. She did not seem to be an accomplice, but more like she was coerced.
When the video ended, Dominica cut to the second segment, this time a higher-definition video of the casino's interior, which was why they could find Phoenix so quickly.
Phoenix was obviously trying to make cash through a loophole in the blackjack game. After all, everyone knew that cash was hard to track.
And the Asian girl stayed with Phoenix throughout the process.
Dominica had already had a strong idea that he must investigate the identity of this Asian girl immediately. Perhaps this was the shortcut to Phoenix.
He then clicked on the third video, and the camera on the main road of the hall recorded more information.
Phoenix seemed to be fondly caressing her cheek and saying something, but the girl in front of her revealed a frightened expression. A moment later, her expression turned into anger. With a snap, she opened her hand and even waved it straight at her face.
Dominica couldn't help but laugh at this, thinking that this so-called former outstanding agent was no more than this.
However, the scene changed again in the next second. Phoenix did not let the other party succeed. Instead, she carried the other party on her shoulder and walked quickly into the elevator.
Phoenix looked up just before the elevator closed and met Dominica's eyes off the screen.
As if he knew.
For a moment, Dominica had a feeling of being seen through. If he were not still sitting in the plane, he would even stand up in shock.
- What an honorable and terrible opponent.
Although his resistance was meaningless.
Apart from these surveillance videos, Dominica had no more information on hand.
Perhaps he deliberately evaded, or perhaps the hotel had slackened in the installation of surveillance cameras, and all information on how he entered the hotel was missing.
At the entrance of the underground garage, he vaguely captured a picture of a suspected Phoenix driving a car away, but the license plate was blocked. He did not take the EZPass (ETC) channel, but directly knocked open the cash exclusive channel.
In fact, Dominica felt that Phoenix's actions were meaningless. He would find out sooner or later. It was just a matter of time.
The priority was to find out the identity of the Asian girl Caspar Phoenix had coerced, so that everything would be solved.
The computer screen was paused on Lu Jia's face. The blurred but delicate face seemed to inadvertently face the camera and get enough facial information.
The system has started a new job.

Suddenly found that mother and friends are surnamed Zhang, changed mother's surname Zhou, the first few chapters involved tomorrow changed
Then I just got home at ten o'clock today. Most of this chapter was written on the subway. There are only so many (tears).
Also, I saw a comment on a little angel backstage today that was censored and deleted. Wuwu, maybe there are some abbreviations involved in sensitivity (good speechless
I really want a lot of comments. Please don't stop commenting on me because of this. QAQ
Finally, I don't support JJ at all, but I really can't help it.
