Chapter 529: Chapter 529: This Matter is Somewhat Disgusting
"Hello, | am a delivery person from the courier company. Your package got wet in the rain and the delivery
address is unreadable. | see this phone number was used by a lady to purchase it. May | ask if you are the owner
of the phone?"
Lin Fan had originally planned to use the courier as a ploy to extract the other party's address, making it easy to
either tail them or visit them directly. Although a man had answered, perhaps he was her relative or husband,
which might make it even easier to inquire about the exact address.
"You must be mistaken, this is my phone, and there is no lady involved."
The man’s voice on the phone carried a tone of disgust.
"That can’t be right; the phone number matches perfectly, and the products inside are indeed for females...
Could it possibly be that a family member used your phone number instead?"
Lin Fan could only continue to maintain a calm tone, but this slight questioning caused the other party's voice to
turn angry: "Are you fucking brain-dead? | already told you this is my phone, there are no women in my house.
I'm warning you, don’t call here again, otherwise I'll file a complaint against you!"
After the phone was hung up, Lin Fan was stunned, sitting in his car. Judging from the tone of the other party, it
seemed to really be his phone. He checked again and he had indeed dialed the correct number. Having dealt
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwith Feng Xiaoxiao for over a year with mutual respect, Lin Fan suddenly realized something was off. This was
getting distasteful.
"Could this guy be gay... planning to use Feng Xiaoxiao’s nto get a wife while secretly being with someone
of the sgender... Provincial City really knows how to play!"
Although this made everything sound reasonable, Jiang Chun Nian would definitely not admit to it unless the
issue was clarified. Thus, Lin Fan dialed Gao Man's number again: "Inspector Gao, is it possible to pull the cell
phone user's info?"
"I can, but | can’t make it happen since we only have access to such data after filing an official case. For an out-
of-town number, getting you the call records was already tough. You think I'm the Provincial Public Security
Department or something? However, if you can get their ID number, | can help you check into hotel records,
although typically in cases of affairs they won't register together—usually one person books the room and the
other comes up later."
After learning roughly what was going on, Gao Man expressed her inability to help, as without filing a case, there
was not much she could do.
"Alright, Ill think of something else."
Lin Fan hung up, frowning. Involving the Public Security Bureau wouldn't be a big issue, but since it was through
Zhu Defu, bothering high-level leadership for such a trivial matter didn’t seem right. Just as he was about to put
the matter on hold and think of another plan, a thought suddenly struck him.
Yao Wan Jiao had mentioned her godmother, Boss Qi, had powerful connections in Provincial City. So, with a try-
it-and-see attitude, Lin Fan dialed the number Yao Wan Jiao had left him. After all, money makes many things
simpler.
"Hello, who is this?"
The phone connected, and a woman's sultry voice emanated from the receiver. Just from the sound, one could
almost conclude that the person was definitely a beauty.
"Hello, Boss Qi, I'm looking to find information about a phone number's user. | wonder if you could help with
that? How much would it cost?"
Lin Fan leaned back in his seat, finding the voice extremely pleasant to hear.
"County Magistrate Lin, for such a small matter, why should you spend any money? Just addon WeChat,
send over the details and | should have an answer for you in about half an hour."
Boss Qi’s laugh was crisp and melodious, and she unexpectedly addressed him directly by name, which took Lin
Fan aback.
"Boss Qi, you know me?"
"First, this is a private number, known by fewer than twenty people. It's clear that you have a pretty good
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmrelationship with my goddaughter. Besides, more than one person has toldabout your business trip to
Provincial City, askingto take good care of you. | was thinking as you're new around here, you'd definitely be
visiting friends and relatives. | planned to invite you to dinner tomorrow, but here you are callingtoday."
Boss Qi implied, though did not explicitly state, that both Su Yufei and Yao Wan Jiao had called her.
"I'm just here on a business trip; | didn’t expect to trouble Boss Qi. But business is business, and personal favors
are personal favors. It’s only right to make arrangements to get your help properly."
Lin Fan didn’t want to owe a huge favor for such a small matter, as money is easy to calculate, but personal
debts are not.
"Let's do this then—I'll take care of this small matter for you, and you grace my Drunken Immortal Building
tomorrow night. | quite like a place called Xu Ji Roasted Goose about three kilometers away. Could you buy a
goose from there and bring it along? How about that?"
Boss Qi’s words were clear; she wasn’t asking for money, but she could accept a favor.
"No problem, I'll definitely be there on time!"
With everything laid out so plainly, Lin Fan had nothing to refuse. After hanging up, he took two bottles of Moutai
from his trunk and headed towards his teacher's home.
Meanwhile, at Drunken Immortal Building in Provincial City, Boss Qi, while caressing Su Yufei’s delicate chest,
smiled and said, "This time, the prey has cstraight to our mouth. It's up to you now to see if you can get him
swallowed up."
