Chapter 519 Missing
When Su Qing encountered the mixed school of yellowfin tuna and bonito for the first time, she caught them three times while the school was still there, and caught a total of 28 yellowfin tunas and more than 100 bonito. She then caught a conger eel and some other fish in the coral reef on the seabed.
Because she caught a lot of seafood, Su Qing was in a very good mood and had sweet dreams at night. However, when she woke up early the next morning, she found that the boat had stopped.
"What happened? Why did the boat stop?" Su Qing called the room butler Jim and asked.
Jim quickly responded, "Miss Susan, there was something wrong with the ship, so we need to stop for a while. I apologize for the inconvenience."
Su Qing nodded and asked, "How long will it take?"
"That, I don't know." said Jim.
Su Qing couldn't help but frowned when she heard this and asked, "What happened?"
"A guest is missing." Jim sighed. "He was discovered at night and has not been found until now. So, we need to stop the boat temporarily and maybe use a speedboat to search nearby."
Su Qing was shocked when she heard this. How could someone disappear on a boat? Sending a speedboat to look for him meant that the suspect was thrown into the sea.
Su Qing nodded without saying anything. Just stop the boat. After all, someone is missing, so it is more important to find that person first.
Then Jim continued, "By the way, Miss Susan, I think someone might come to ask you questions in a while. I'll say hello to you first so you won't be disturbed."
"Who are they?" Su Qing asked curiously, "Family members of the missing person?"
"No, it's a private detective." Jim said, "This detective is very famous in Hong Kong. He happened to be on this ship this time. When the captain found out, he asked the private detective to help investigate. After all, he didn't find the person in half a night. I'm afraid it's..."
Jim shook his head and sighed halfway through his speech, fearing that something bad was about to happen.
Su Qing frowned slightly: “Okay, I understand.”
As the two were talking, they heard someone knocking on the door, and Jim hurried forward to open the door.
Outside the door was a man in his fifties: "Hello, I'm looking for Miss Susan."
Jim turned around and said to Su Qing: "Miss Su Qing, this is Mr. Hua Zifeng, the famous detective in Hong Kong.
"Please come in, Mr. Hua." Su Qing didn't expect that this private detective would come to her to ask questions so soon. She had originally planned to go to the restaurant to have breakfast first.
"Mr. Hua, this matter cannot be related to Miss Susan." Hua Zifeng nodded at Su Qing. Just as he was about to enter the room, Yaen chased after him from behind and said to Hua Zifeng.
Seeing Yaen, Su Qing was stunned for a moment: "Who is the missing person?"
Hua Zifeng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this: "It seems that Miss Susan already knows that someone is missing? The news came very quickly."
Jim on the side said hurriedly: "Mr. Hua, it was Miss Susan who found that the ship had stopped and asked me to come and ask about the situation. I told Miss Susan, and you came just as I was talking about this."
After hearing this, Hua Zifeng just nodded without comment.
"Ms. Susan." Yaen looked at Su Qing helplessly: "The missing person is Angela."
"Miss Angela is missing?" Su Qing looked at Yan in surprise.
"Yes." Yaen nodded and said, "Angela has the habit of eating midnight snacks. Yesterday at midnight, her roomkeeper went to bring her midnight snacks, but found no one in the room. That's when he realized she was missing."
After listening to what Yan said, Su Qing looked at Hua Zifeng. Hua Zifeng was about fifty years old and his eyes were very sharp. At this moment, Hua Zifeng looked at Su Qing with inquiry in his eyes.
Su Qing raised her eyebrows: "Why, Mr. Hua, do you think I'm a suspect?"
"I heard that Miss Angela and Miss Susan seem to have some conflicts. Two days ago, Miss Susan even hit Miss Angela. Many people saw it. Moreover, there seem to be some emotional issues involved. So, I came here today to ask Miss Susan some questions." Hua Zifeng said, looking into Su Qing's eyes.
Su Qing said calmly: "You can ask questions, but please don't look at me like a criminal, Mr. Hua. I admit that I had some conflicts with Miss Angela a few days ago, but that matter has long passed. It was Miss Angela who came to pick a fight, and I just fought back appropriately. Mr. Yaen was also there at the time."
"Yes, I was there too." Yaen said hurriedly, "Mr. Hua, I just told you that Miss Susan couldn't have anything to do with Angela's disappearance. I hope you can investigate it quickly and identify the real suspect. Angela is in danger now. If you find her later, she will be in even greater danger."
Angela was missing, and Yarne was very anxious. Although he had no romantic feelings for Angela, and had developed some disgust towards her because of her pestering in the past two days, she was his childhood sweetheart after all, so it was impossible for him not to be anxious.
"Mr. Yan, Miss Susan has a conflict with Miss Angela, so she will naturally be temporarily listed as one of the suspects. Please don't interfere with my investigation, otherwise I will doubt whether you are protecting Miss Susan." Hua Zifeng said to Yan in a serious tone.
"You!" Yan couldn't help but choke upon hearing that.
Su Qing turned around and sat on the sofa, then said to Hua Zifeng: "Mr. Hua, please ask me anything you want to ask. I repeat, even if you have doubts, please don't look at me as if I were a criminal."
"Forgive me for being reckless." Hua Zifeng said calmly, "It's my job. I treat suspicious people like this when I'm at work. I hope Miss Susan will understand."
Su Qing smiled faintly and pointed to the sofa opposite: "Please sit down."
Hua Zifeng sat down, then took out a notebook and a pen, and looked at Su Qing: "Excuse me, Miss Su Qing, did you have a conflict with Miss Angela a few days ago?"
"Yes." Su Qing nodded.
Hua Zifeng then asked: "Can you explain the situation in detail?"
"Sure." Su Qing said, "This time on the Jixiang, Mr. Yaen and I happened to live next door to each other, so we met by chance. Because I had a few words with Mr. Yaen, Miss Angela seemed a little dissatisfied with me. She came to pick a fight with me that day, and I had a small conflict with her. Later, Mr. Yaen dragged Miss Angela away. Mr. Yaen and the guests living in the next room can testify to this."
Hua Zifeng recorded Su Qing's words in detail, and then asked: "Well, excuse me for asking, are Miss Susan and Mr. Yaen really having some ambiguity?"
