No Where To Run: Trapped With My Archenemy

Chapter 59 - The Worst Thing To Happen.

Even after Wan Yi Jun's car left Wisteria garden, Ming Yue couldn't move away from the spot where she stood.

She couldn't accept the fact that she was holding Wan Yi Jun's cellphone and his house key in her hands.

She was looking for ways to sneak into his phone and house, but never did she imagine that Wan Yi Jun would believe her so much that he was ready to give away two of his most private belongings.

She thought Wan YiJun was a meticulous police officer, but after watching him carelessly believing in an imposter, an enemy to be precise.

Ming Yue gently lowered her eyes to the phone and turned it on to check anything that may help them.

As soon as the mobile turned on, the blank screen got replaced with a photograph of a husky with a pair of blue and brown eyes,

'Mooney,'

Ming Yue's lips subconsciously uttered the name that was part of her childhood- her dog.

It was a gift from Wan Yi Jun on her birthday, and the name 'Mooney' was Han Ze Min's contribution.

Though she didn't show it outside, Ming Yue was very much concerned about her bi-coloured eyes since it was a feature everyone used to tease her.

She wasn't sure what had made Wan Yi Jun get her a dog who looked exactly like her, but she used to believe that he did it, just to tell her that her eyes were rare and special.

The day she was abandoned by the Wan family, Ming Yue was forced to believe that they had made sure to wipe her memories from Wan Yi Jun's life forever,

However, watching Wan Yi Jun holding onto their past, to her memories, was something she least expected from him.

"Why?" She mumbled while tightening her grip on the phone and quickly shoved it into her hoodie's pocket as if she got no courage to look into it.

"Don't let him fool you," She said and looked at the key engraved in the shape of a wisteria flower,

It was something that was supposed to hand over to the madam of the Wisteria garden, something that was given to the daughter in law of the family.

"Don't let anyone fool you." Ming Yue muttered under her breath as she turned around and stomped into the mansion.

At the same time, the eagle team's office was witnessing the burning debate between the members who were guessing the reason for the absence of the major two members of their team.

Wan Yi Jun and Han Ze Min, two diligent officers who were known for their punctuality were nowhere to see even after the official reporting time was over.

"I swear, they had a huge fight, at least over the phone. Otherwise, Captain Wan must have stayed in the office instead of going home." Bing Wen argued as he sat in a circle with the other team members.

"I don't think so. As far as I know, Captain Wan never took their relationship as serious enough to let it affect his career." Shen Junru made a counterargument, placing his bet on his beloved idol. "And Miss Cai even said that Captain never accepted Miss Zhi, so I don't think he is heartbroken enough to stay home."

"But whatever happened last night was a bit overboard. I have never seen captain trying so hard to hide his frustration." Lao Yating added in a concerned voice,

"Of course, anyone would have become frustrated when his 'girlfriend' supports a suspect who got no control over her words. Did you all see officer Han's face when that woman mentioned his 'dead girlfriend'? If I was in his shoes, I would have never allowed anyone to speak ill of a dead person like that." Bing Wen shared his own opinion,

"She could have avoided that term."

"Hmm, I feel the same. No matter how much Miss Cai hated officer Han, it is not so nice to drag some dead person and accuse the investigator that he got personal agendas against her. That's why I tried to stop her." Fei Yan justified his actions from last night's interrogation.

"But senior Fei, did you see how captain Wan took his cousin's side when that woman accused officer Han?" Bing Wen spoke like a fangirl, with a wide grin on his face, "Bros before girls, damn. That was so cool."

"Sometimes, I wonder whether it is true that both of them were rivals. All I can see is the perfect example of two headstrong people who pretend to hate, but secretly supports each other's back." Lao Yating added with a smile when he recalled the interactions between Wan Yi Jun and Han Ze Min. 

"Exactly, did you see how captain Wan made sure to leave some dumplings for officer Han in return for the morning coffee? Earlier it was even hard to stand in the same spot with those two, don't you remember, Senior Fei?"

"Of course, I do. I'm surprised that they seem closer than before." Fei Yan gave an agreeing nod and continued in a pleasant tone. 

"On their last mission together, those two were practically fighting with each other. But now that both of them are working together, it seems like they have come into an agreement. After all, time heals every wound." He sighed heavily as he recalled the cold war period between the brothers. 

"You have worked with officer Han, too? Have you seen officer Han's girlfriend, senior Fei?" Bing Wen asked all of a sudden when he remembered the dead girlfriend whom they mentioned earlier.

"No. Not at all. I'm hearing it for the first time." Fei Yan quickly rejected and saved himself from spilling any truth. 

"To be honest, there was a rumour going around that officer Han also liked miss Zhi." Lao Yating said in a doubting tone, 

"Is that why Captain rejected miss Zhi? Oh my god, did he also believe those rumours and move away so that miss Zhi would accept his cousin who lost his girlfriend" Bing Wen added in a breath and a pair of widened eyes as if he solved a mystery.

"Bing Wen, I think you should switch careers." Shen Junru, who got fed up with Bing Wen's excitement, said in a voice doused in sarcasm, "I damn sure that you will be a great scriptwriter."

"I totally agree with you." Lao Yating almost gave a hi-five to Shen Junru when his eyes fell on the familiar figure at the doorstep.

"Good morning, captain." He jumped up from the seat and stood in attention, making others do the same.

"Good morning, everyone." Wan Yi Jun bowed his head a little and took a seat next to Bing Wen, just to check whatever he was doing in the system.

"Have you checked Miss Cai's alibi?"

"Yes, captain. I have sorted the footage of  Miss Cai's car leaving the club around 10 pm and entering Miss Zhi's house in less than 45 minutes. Both of her phone signals were in the same cell tower territory as miss Zhi's." Bing Wen replied in a single breath, surprising everyone else. To be honest, everyone thought that he was slacking off his work and only interested in gossiping. But in reality, Bing Wen was so hellbound on impressing Wan Yi Jun, he made sure to complete his tasks before anything else.

"What about the call details of Cai Hong's assistant?"

"I'm cross-checking it, captain. Will be done by today evening."

"Good job," Wan Yi Jun gave a nod of appraisal. However, before he could say something, his phone rang loudly, and he quickly left the room to pick up the call.

"See, he is completely alright." Shen Junru shrugged his shoulders as if he proved others wrong with his assumptions regarding their captain being a strong willed person.

"But officer Han is still absent. That means one of them had got hurt last night's interrogation." Bing Wen who was not ready to yield in before Shen Junru, argued again.

"I told you, guys. He switched sides." 

"I didn't. I will always stay loyal to Captain Wan." The moment Bing Wen declared in a resilient tone, Wan Yi Jun returned to the room.

"Thank you, Bing Wen." He gently patted an embarrassed Bing Wen's shoulders with a sunny smile and took a seat. 

"And I'm sorry for coming late. Renovation works are still pending at my home."

"You still haven't settled, captain?" Fei Yan's creased in worry when he heard Wan Yi Jun's reply.

"I did, but my cook lives in the downtown. She had to travel a lot everyday, so I thought it would be better to accommodate her, too." 

"Do you live far away from the city, Captian?" Bing Wen asked in a curious tone to do a mental math.

"Yeah, more than one hour drive down the north side,"

"Oh you live in north side? Isn't the place where the historical ruins of old capital city situates?" Shen Junru who loves to remain silent, suddenly asked in an excited tone. 

"Yes, it is the same place."

"One of my friends took references of that place for his new game. It looked so magnificent."

"Does your friend works in Whoopie studios?" Wan Yi Jun asked, 

"Yes, but how do you know? Are you a fan of warring states, too? We are planning to go for a trip to northern city on this weekend. Do you want to join us, captain?"

"Actually, it is next to my house. Feel free to come over to when you come to north."

"Really, captain? Why are you inviting senior Shen only?" Bing Wen pouted his lips as if he was disappointed by Wan Yi Jun's words."

"No...no.. actually once the renovation is over, I would like to invite everyone for a meal at my place." Wan Yi Jun gladly offered. However, only he knew that it is never going to happen.

Because, it was the second time the construction workers refused to renovate Wisteria garden quoting the presence of a ghosts.
