Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

Chapter 446: Rescuing Li Mengmeng

The chain connected to the iron ring wasn't long, so Li Mengmeng's usual range of movement must have been very small.After Liu Qingxuan unlocked that iron ring, the young detective picked it up, forcefully snapped it shut again, restoring it to its locked state.

Afterwards, he pulled out a lock-picking tool he usually carried from his own pocket and tried to open it, but a minute passed. He was sweating profusely from the effort and still couldn't open it.

"Alright, since we've rescued the person, let's go quickly!"

Little Sherlock Holmes urged from the bedroom doorway.

The young detective turned his head: "Aren't we going to check places like the bathroom?"

Liu Qingxuan answered for him: "With this living fossil here, what don't we know?"

The living fossil referred to Li Mengmeng.

Because they found Li Mengmeng as slow and clumsy as a newborn baby, even getting off the bed and walking was a painstakingly slow process.

So, Liu Qingxuan had the young detective carry her on his back.

The young detective, by default, occupied the lowest position among the three, after all, his skills and brains were inferior to the other two. Thus, he became the one carrying Li Mengmeng.

Soon, the four of them left Room 1004, also suspending the search of other apartments, and returned to Room 404.

Live stream room.

Even though the detectives Zhou Yan had hired did not become lab rats in this round, the live stream's main camera still automatically focused on them.

After all, there weren't any other particularly exciting spots in the apartment right now.

And when the people in the live stream room saw the somewhat familiar face of Li Mengmeng,

they were all quite pleasantly surprised.

Fairy Sister: [I never thought I'd see Li Mengmeng again, I thought she was dead!]

Middle-aged Uncle: [She's lucky she encountered that middle-aged male doctor;if she'd met someone else, she probably would have ended up like the other lab rats from her round, rushing to be reborn early.]

Domineering Female CEO: [Her luck is really quite good. I guess now that these detectives have rescued her, she's essentially free. I hope she leaves Alice Apartment soon!]

[These lab rats who moved into Alice Apartment for money all end up with neither money earned nor their lives intact.]

Alice Apartment.

The three brought Li Mengmeng back to Room 404.

The detective in his fifties was in the living room watching TV at this time.

What he was watching was a recently popular historical romance drama.

It wasn't that he liked watching it, but TV shows nowadays were getting worse and worse, with nothing decent to watch.

Because of this, he had also watched a few popular historical romances starring young actors and actresses.

How to put it...

The good guys in the shows all wore white clothes or light-colored clothes.

The bad guys all wore black clothes or dark-colored clothes.

He wouldn't comment on the rest.

Because at that moment, he saw the door open.

Immediately after, he saw a strange woman besides the three.

He truly couldn't figure out why these three would bring a strange woman back?

Could it be that they infiltrated a place here, were discovered by the homeowner, and now she's here to demand compensation?

"Who is she?"

"Master, she's from the Room 1004."

"Oh, you were discovered? So she's going to sue you for trespassing?"

"No, no, I haven't finished. She was imprisoned by the person living in Room 1004."

The detective in his fifties, holding a black remote control, was about to turn off the TV but accidentally pressed the wrong button, hitting mute instead.

"Explain in detail?"

Liu Qingxuan said: "Her name is Li Mengmeng, a dance streamer. She was locked in the bedroom. The owner of Room 1004 seems to be a middle-aged male doctor. That's all we know. More details need to come from her."

The gazes of several people focused on Li Mengmeng, who was wearing a nurse's uniform.

It was unknown what kind of torment she had undergone, but after being brought here, Li Mengmeng kept turning her head left and right, showing extreme insecurity.

The detective in his fifties had his apprentice bring Li Mengmeng over and poured her a cup of warm water.

Li Mengmeng tightly gripped the glass. The warmth transmitted from her palm slightly eased her tense emotions.

The detective in his fifties didn't ask immediately either, but simply watched Li Mengmeng quietly.

Until about a quarter of an hour had passed.

The atmosphere in the living room of Room 404 began to settle into calm.

Only then did the detective in his fifties open his mouth to ask: "Can you tell us your story?"

Li Mengmeng turned her head to the left to glance at him, then twisted her head away without making a sound.

The young detective, Liu Qingxuan, and Little Sherlock Holmes all kept quite a distance from the two people on the sofa.

This was to avoid creating a sense of pressure for Li Mengmeng.

"Rest assured, this place is absolutely safe. Of course, if you want to guarantee your safety afterwards, it's best to let us know your situation. Otherwise, you surely don't want to return to the place that imprisoned you, right?"

Li Mengmeng covered her head, shaking it desperately: "No, no, I never want to go back there again!"

"I! I just want to leave this apartment right now!!!"

The detective in his fifties said: "Alright, after we understand your story, we will personally escort you out."

"Re... really?"

Eyes filled with hope, Li Mengmeng yearned for safety and freedom.

The detective in his fifties nodded: "Of course it's true. So, if you want freedom as soon as possible, then let us know your situation as soon as possible."

"And, you probably don't know our true identities yet, right?"

Li Mengmeng was stunned for a moment: "Tr... true identities?"

The detective in his fifties pulled a credential from his pocket and tossed it in front of Li Mengmeng.

It was a black leather credential holder.

Opening it revealed an identification card inside, with a photo of the detective in his fifties.

He then said: "America has the FBI, the UK has the CIA. Our Hua Country is the same;ours is called HEE. All four of us are HEE agents, specially here to investigate this apartment."

"HEE? How come I've never heard of such an organization in our country?"

"Isn't it normal that you haven't heard of it? If you had heard of it, it wouldn't be called a secret organization."

Li Mengmeng felt what he said made sense, and although she didn't know if this credential was real or fake, judging by its exquisite quality, it didn't seem fake.

She temporarily believed it.

Therefore, she said: "Alright, I'll tell you about myself."

She handed the credential back to the detective in his fifties.

The detective in his fifties took back the credential, thinking that this fake credential he spent over a thousand on was really useful;it had helped him out countless times already.

That's right, the HEE secret organization was fake, completely made up by him on the spot.

Li Mengmeng took a sip of the warm water these people had poured for her.

The lukewarm, gentle water filled her mouth, went down her throat.

Then slid into various parts of her body.

She began to speak:

"My name and profession, I've already told you, including the person who imprisoned me."

"What I'm going to tell you next, I'm afraid you won't believe..."

"It's fine, go ahead and say it!"

The detective in his fifties said.

"Mhm, I actually used to be a resident of this apartment too. I lived in Room 602."

Despite being imprisoned for such a long time, Li Mengmeng's brain wasn't completely addled.

This kind of sophisticated, self-interested, money-worshipping individual decided not to tell these strangers in front of her about the agreement she had signed.

However, she could talk about other things.
