- T City -
Qin Chu was the prime suspect, so he couldn't leave T City.
- Inside Marriott Hotel -
Rick called Qin Chu to apologize, "Qin Chu, I'm sorry… I didn't think Huo Siqian would lure us away from our base. I kept following him and forgot about T City because I thought he was going to plan something big in C City, I didn't think he would be so quick to kill."
"It's not your fault. If we could predict his next steps, then he wouldn't be Huo Siqian." Qin Chu never underestimated Huo Siqian and always knew that he was an extremely meticulous and ruthless individual.
Therefore, he wasn't surprised about Jiang Linyue's death. However, he wondered if Jiang Linyue's text was really directed to him, or if it was just a show that Huo Siqian's people put on.
"I saw Huo Mian last night." Rick suddenly changed the topic; upon mentioning Huo Mian, Qin Chu's voice softened. "My wife was with clients on my behalf."
"Mhm, she drank quite a lot…"
