Chapter 156: The Persons in the Photo
She had no intention to pry into Lu Qi’s privacy, but she had seen the man and woman in this photo before.
She hadn’t seen them in real life but in her dreams. They were the man and woman in her recent dreams.
Cheng Ling’s hands were trembling as she was holding the photo. What was going on? Why did Lu Qi have this photo?
At this moment, Lu Qi came in with two glasses of water.
“Cheng Ling, what’s wrong?”
Cheng Ling raised her head with the photo in her hands. Her eyes were still filled with shock.
She randomly pointed at the drawer and said, “I’m sorry, I wanted to look for the medical kit, but when I opened the drawer, I saw this photo.”
Lu Qi placed the water on the bedside table and shook his head indicating it was alright.
“This photo was brought over by my brother. In the past few years, we have been looking for the person who poisoned me. This photo is what they have found, but we are still unable to determine who the persons were in the photo.”
Hearing Lu Qi’s words, Cheng Ling instantly felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head.
The persons in this photo were related to Lu Qi’s poisoning incident?
Lu Qi saw that Cheng Ling’s expression was not right.
“Cheng Ling, what’s wrong? Why are you looking so pale? Are you not feeling well?”
Cheng Ling shook her head and let Lu Qi help her sit down on the chair.
Cheng Ling was still holding the photo tightly in her hand. Lu Qi frowned and asked, “Cheng Ling, do you know the persons in the photo?”
Cheng Ling didn’t know what to say at this moment.
Did she know them?
She had only seen them in her dream.
Cheng Ling shook her head. “I don’t know them, but…”
“But what?”
“We’ll talk about it later. I might know these two persons. I’ll tell you about it in the future, okay?”
Lu Qi didn’t ask Cheng Ling further. Hearing what Cheng Ling had said, he nodded. “Of course.”
“Can I have this photo?”
“Yes, you can have it.”
Then, Cheng Ling helped Lu Qi treat his wound and left absent-mindedly.
After returning to her room, Cheng Ling sat in a daze.
She remembered the man and woman in the photo clearly. They were the two people in her dreams. But how could she confirm it?
She thought for a long time before she finally took out her phone to make a call to someone she knew.
“Hello, I have a photo and a USB flash drive here. Can you help me find some detailed information?”
The person on the other side quickly agreed and made an appointment with Cheng Ling to meet the next day.
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Ling went washing up. That night, she didn’t sleep well. She kept dreaming about the man and woman and the scene of them being killed.
Why were they killed?
Cheng Ling was awakened by the nightmare again. She kept thinking about this question.
When the sky slightly brightened up, Cheng Ling left a note to tell Xie Ying that she was going out. She then brought along the photo and the USB drive that was with her when she was born.
The place she went to was a small alley.
Cheng Ling took three buses before she reached the place.
She knocked on the door using the copper door knocker ring. It took a few minutes before someone came out.
“So early? Didn’t we have an appointment at noon?”
Cheng Ling ignored the complaint and entered the house.
“I can’t wait any longer. Quickly help me take a look.”
This person was wearing a black T-shirt and white pants. The fringe on his forehead was long and covered his eyes. If he walked out, everyone would probably think that he was just an ordinary boy. This person was actually the person who had dominated the hacker kingdom three years ago — Ah K. However, because of some matters, he quit three years ago.
As Cheng Ling had saved his life before, she had been keeping in touch with him.
“It’s rare to see you in such a hurry.”
Cheng Ling frowned and nodded. “Yes, this might help me know who my parents are.”
Ah K’s eyes widened. “Really? Then I’ll definitely do my best to help you find them.”
He inserted the USB into the computer and quickly typed on the keyboard. Some blue boxes immediately popped up on the computer screen.
His fingers were so fast that Cheng Ling was also dazzled.
“There’s also this photo. Let’s see if we can locate it.”
Ah K nodded.
He was very serious when he worked. He didn’t look sloppy at all, which was very convincing.
“How many years has this USB been around? It looks so old.”
Cheng Ling pursed her lips. “I had this when I was born.. When I was picked up, I only had this USB with me.”
