Chapter 407: Blinding Trick

In the dead of night, the vast ocean beyond the window was tranquil and silent.

Lu Xining had changed into clothing both comfortable and suited for movement. She hadn't applied any makeup and appeared barefaced, her cool features now carrying a pristine and unadorned charm, like water blooming a lotus—refreshing and captivating.

To avoid attracting attention, Cheng Cang had already gone ahead carrying the recreated fingerprint gloves, heading to the morgue at the bottom of the ship's hold.

By leveraging the beauty strategically nurtured by Meng Lai and his men, he obtained key information, confirming that Meng Lai preferred to use his thumb for fingerprint setups.

Just to err on the side of caution, however, Cheng Cang still brought along the Danrus fingerprint gloves sent by Shang Lvxing.

At the agreed-upon time, Lu Xining and Shang Lvxing simultaneously opened their room doors. The man's eyes had traces of redness, as though he had been "moved" by something prior.
