Chapter 152: Chapter 152 Tom’s Analysis

Upon receiving Tom’s message, Fang Xiaocao always had a bad feeling which lingered in her mind, as if danger was silently approaching.

Fang Xiaocao always felt that Han Xue wouldn’t just simply run away. Knowing that she herself was in room 508, how could Han Xue escape without retaliating against her first?

This was unlike the modus operandi of that crazy woman.

Just then, a cry of alarm came from the corridor, and Fang Xiaocao was startled. She quickly accessed the surveillance video to see what happened in the corridor.

Upon seeing it, Fang Xiaocao was dumbfounded.

A team of forensic doctors had arrived at some point.

And from room 512, they carried out two people…

More accurately, one adult and one child—two dead bodies.

“How come there are two more dead bodies?”

Watching the surveillance video, Fang Xiaocao murmured.

“Wait a second…”

“One adult and one child—two dead bodies…”

Suddenly, Fang Xiaocao realized something.

“It can’t be this twisted…”

Fang Xiaocao couldn’t help shuddering.

Han Xue and Axi were actually carrying two dead bodies with them, sharing a room with the corpses.

Fang Xiaocao knew Han Xue and Axi were twisted.

But she had not expected them to be this perverse.

Anyway, since there were dead bodies in the room, Fang Xiaocao definitely wouldn’t dare to stay alone.

Fang Xiaocao: Spit…

Fang Xiaocao: Even with a group of people, I wouldn’t dare to stay.

Looking at the two bodies being carried away, Fang Xiaocao finally knew where Han Xue’s human skin mask on Tom’s mention had come from.

It was the poor mother and child’s skin!

In the surveillance video, the crime scene investigators had cordoned off room 512, and two detectives guarded the door, allowing no one in except for the forensic and technical investigators.

Clearly, whatever happened in room 512 had escalated to a serious level.

With both Wang Qiang and Song Lin injured in this hotel, Fang Xiaocao felt that the hotel’s feng shui might not be quite right for the detectives.

…

Tom, looking at Han Xue’s photo, imprinted her appearance and figure deeply into his memory.

Following the street, Tom kept searching.

Han Xue was now a wanted criminal.

From his brief contact with Han Xue, Tom found that this woman was extremely cautious.

Given such caution, and knowing that the hotel incident would lead to a manhunt, she probably wouldn’t take public transportation.

Because it might expose her identity.

In such a scenario, Han Xue’s caution would lead her to believe that leaving on foot was the safest option.

Walking wouldn’t leave any trace, nor would there be any signs from using mobile payment applications.

The street was crowded with people coming and going. Amid the vast sea of humanity, it was quite difficult to find one person on foot.

Even if one used surveillance cameras for tracking, it would require a lot of time and manpower to compare individuals one by one; even with computers, it would take a very long time.

Tom had thought about using his advanced technology to track Han Xue’s cell phone, but no sooner had the idea surfaced than he dismissed it.

If Han Xue could throw her disguise—a human skin mask—into the trash, how could she possibly keep her cell phone ‘alive’?

‘Alive’ is a term indicating that the cell phone is in a state of power-on, in use, connected to a network, etc., meaning it can be traced and located by any technical means.

Even if the cellphone was still active, it was definitely not on Han Xue anymore.

Tom conjectured that Han Xue must have placed the cellphone in some unlucky sod’s car or bag, letting that poor devil wander the world with her cellphone, drawing the police’s attention away from her.

By the time the police tracked and located Han Xue’s cellphone position through technical means, devised a capture plan, and searched and found the cellphone, they would realize they had wasted a lot of time and effort. After meticulously crafting a capture plan, the Han Xue they caught would be an unsuspecting unlucky sod.

Thinking of this, Tom’s mouth turned upwards, revealing a smug sneer.

“It’s not often you find someone as smart as me.”

Tom muttered to himself.

Tom continued walking, searching for traces of Han Xue while replaying in his mind everything about this woman, from his own encounters with her to what Fang Xiaocao had told him about her.

As he walked, Tom suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Standing still, his eyes gradually deepened while his brows knitted tighter and tighter.

“No!”

“My line of thinking seems to be wrong!”

Tom murmured to himself.

Taken aback for a moment, he turned on his heel and ran.

The direction Tom ran towards was that of the hotel.

After brief contemplation, Tom suddenly realized that he might have been chasing in the wrong direction.

Or rather…

His line of thinking had been wrong from the start.

Han Xue hadn’t gone anywhere but was nearby all along.

Now the police might not have confirmed Han Xue’s real identity, and even if they were to issue a warrant for her, it would be for her disguised with the Human Skin Mask.

Once Han Xue changed back to her original appearance, she didn’t need to run at all; simply hiding nearby would be safe.

Who would think that a fugitive, assuming the identity of another wanted criminal, would loiter under the noses of the police?

This was the darkness under the light!

When searching for something, especially a person, once a target’s characteristics are established, one tends to look for someone who fits the profile, subconsciously ignoring other potential targets nearby.

Unless it’s someone familiar, Han Xue could walk past right under the police’s noses and likely be overlooked subconsciously.

Realizing this, Tom immediately sensed that Han Xue might not have left but instead returned towards the direction of the hotel, or even was in the hotel’s…

Underground parking lot!

Secretly monitoring every move of the police.

And possibly looking for a chance…

…to infiltrate the hotel again and take action against Fang Xiaocao.

From what Fang Xiaocao had told him, Tom knew that Han Xue was a woman of crazy boldness beneath a cautious exterior.

Tom had also heard about Han Xue’s previous revenge exploits from Fang Xiaocao.

In Tom’s eyes, while Han Xue’s plans and details might not seem overly intricate, they were definitely daring yet meticulous.

Tom, the professional killer, couldn’t help but silently give Han Xue his approval.

Not finessed, but he thought it was perfect.

She had perfectly utilized her advantages to achieve her goal for revenge.

Apart from the slip-up with Fang Xiaocao due to being overly eager for retribution, she had successfully exacted revenge on all her other targets.

But Tom could understand why Han Xue was so anxious, for Shen Tao was an unpredictable card. Once Shen Tao found out that he had been vengefully infected by Han Xue with those filthy diseases, he would undoubtedly strike at Han Xue.

Then Han Xue would have no chance for revenge.

In other words, if no one came to the rescue for Fang Xiaocao, or if they were a moment too late, Han Xue might well have succeeded.

Even if she couldn’t kill Fang Xiaocao, she would at least transmit all those filthy diseases to her.
