Huo Xiaoran glared at him fiercely. Since Huo Zhou made him feel uncomfortable, he would get Huo Zhou busy.
“Find out who this man is. He doesn’t look like a good person to me.”
Huo Zhou was dumbfounded. “He’s clearly a beautiful young man. How can you tell that he’s not a good person?”
Huo Xiaoran glared at him.
Huo Zhou did not dare to play up the youth’s strengths anymore.
Suddenly, Qiao An’s terrified scream came from outside. “Ah!”
Huo Xiaoran’s expression darkened and he immediately ran out in a panic.
The chandelier in the exhibition hall suddenly fell, almost hitting Qiao An. It was the young man who pushed her away.
Qiao An had no time to deal with the cut from the glass shard. Her hawk-sharp gaze went straight to the source of the chandelier’s tumble. Then she saw a black-clad man in sunglasses flash past.
Clearly, the young man had noticed him too.
Qiao An pointed to the top floor and said to the young man, “Quick, grab him.”
The young man suddenly ran nimbly.
Huo Xiaoran was stunned when he saw him climbing up the decorative pillar like a cat. He was clearly a martial artist.
But he was more concerned about whether Qiao An was hurt.
“Qiao An, where are you hurt?”
Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran and suddenly grabbed his hand excitedly. “Hurry up and close the mall. No one is allowed to go out.”
Huo Zhou followed Huo Xiaoran out. Hearing Qiao An’s special request, he refused straight away. “No, this will cause chaos in the mall. Qiao An, the reason for the chandelier’s fall remains to be investigated. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely give you a reasonable explanation.”
Qiao An barked, “It wasn’t an accident. Someone did it deliberately.”
Huo Xiaoran glanced at the agile youth and said to Huo Zhou, “Listen to Qiao An and close the mall immediately.”
Only then did Huo Zhou take out his phone and call the security guards. “Close all the exits.”
Qiao An breathed a sigh of relief.
Huo Zhou hung up the phone. He felt that Qiao An was making a mountain out of a molehill. He walked to the fallen chandelier and was stunned when he saw that the line connecting the chandelier was so smooth.
He stared at Qiao An blankly. “Just who did you offend?”
Huo Xiaoran became especially nervous when he heard that.
He suddenly thought of the last time Qiao An had been robbed in the street. He shuddered at the connection.
“Qiao An, do you know who the murderer is?” Huo Xiaoran asked nervously.
Qiao An looked straight at him, scrutinizing. Suddenly, she said, “I don’t know. All I know is that someone tried to harm me. That person has been haunting me for three years.”
Huo Xiaoran was terrified. He shouted excitedly, “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Qiao An, I’ll protect you.”
Qiao An looked away.
He was obviously a suspect too. How could she possibly ask him for help?
Huo Xiaoran thought of how Qiao An was in danger every day and felt extremely terrified. In order to eliminate the barriers to Qiao An’s safety, he was determined to catch the murderer.
“Zhou Zhou, get the members to register their IDs and let them in with their own IDs.”
“Get the customers who don’t have a membership to assemble at the service hall. I’ll be there in a minute.”
Huo Zhou looked at the scattered chandeliers with a sinister gaze. Whether this person was targeting Qiao An or not, his choice to cause trouble in the Huo family’s territory was the worst decision.
Huo Zhou left with a dark expression.
Huo Xiaoran carefully checked Qiao An’s injuries. Fortunately, they were all superficial wounds. Then, he helped Qiao An up.
“Can you walk?”
“I can,” Qiao An said.
‘Come with me to the service hall. Identify the attacker in person.’
Qiao An said, “Okay.”
When they arrived at the service hall, the young man was standing there dejectedly. When he saw Qiao An, he immediately greeted her.
“Sister, I’m sorry. He got away.”
Huo Xiaoran looked at the youth and understood. “Are you Qiao An’s bodyguard?”
The young man nodded.
“Did you see his face clearly?” Huo Xiaoran asked.
The young man said, “I’ve fought him. His face was covered, but he should be around 175 centimeters tall. He’s on the thin side. He’s very skilled. He looks like a trained killer.”
Qiao An immediately pictured the driver who had hit her three years ago.
Huo Xiaoran’s expression darkened.
He said angrily, “Even if he had wings today, he wouldn’t be able to fly out.”
The investigation went on for a long time. This mall was originally a consumer platform for the rich, so there were very few customers. Soon, the members had all left.
Only a dozen or so customers without IDs were already gathered in the service hall.
Qiao An identified the dozen customers one by one, then shook her head.
“It’s not them.”
Huo Xiaoran instructed the security guards, “Start a carpet search in the basement, bathroom, and every corner.”
Qiao An looked at Huo Xiaoran. He wanted to find the murderer more than anyone else. At that moment, she really believed that Xiaoran would not take her life.
Huo Xiaoran paced back and forth in the hall. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something. He walked up to the dozen or so people and observed them one by one.
Finally, he stopped in front of a young woman. His malicious gaze was fixed on her face.
“You, go remove your makeup.”
The young woman was furious. “That’s an unreasonable request. Why should I listen to you?”
Her voice was high-pitched. It sounded fake.
Huo Xiaoran suddenly reached out and pulled her ponytail. Her hair instantly left her scalp.
“Ah.” She screamed and questioned Huo Xiaoran, “Why did you expose my privacy in public? I’m going to sue you for violating my privacy.”
Huo Xiaoran said, “The others can leave. Stay and cooperate with our investigation.”
“Why should I? You’re detaining me illegally. I’m going to sue you?”
Huo Xiaoran was usually a gentle man, but at this moment, he was extremely domineering. His aura was terrifying. “You’re wrong. We’re the ones who want to sue you.”
“Did I do anything illegal? Are you going to sue me?”
Huo Xiaoran said, “I’m suing you for murder.”
The woman was completely flustered. “I don’t understand what you’re saying. You said I murdered someone, so show me the evidence.”
Huo Xiaoran said to Huo Zhou, “Call the police immediately and get them to collect fingerprints on the top floor.”
He then instructed the bodyguard, “Take her away and send her over after removing her makeup.”
It didn’t take long for the bodyguards to escort her up.
After removing her makeup, she was clearly a middle-aged man in his forties.
He kept his head down, not daring to look at Qiao An at all.
Huo Xiaoran ordered him, “Raise your head.”
The man looked up timidly.
Huo Xiaoran asked Qiao An, “Have you seen him before?”
Qiao An saw the man’s face clearly. It was the driver who had hit her three years ago. Qiao An’s eyes turned red.
