Chapter 237: What does the temperature of the steering wheel have to do with the female passenger in the co-driver seat?
It took about ten minutes. The officers finally arrived. This place was still some distance from the police station, and considering the traffic in Capital City... even though their vehicle could ignore many road rules, they couldn't just barge through everything, could they? A male and a female officer quickly walked in.
The female officer said formally, "Sorry for being a little late, it's rush hour. What happened here? Can you tell us the specifics?"
The male officer wasn't as stiff. "Heard a Ferrari was stolen? These days, I've seen plenty of BMW Benz thefts, but stealing a sports car like a Ferrari? That's a first for me!"
Bai Jie quickly stepped forward to explain, going over many specific details.
"May I ask who the owner of the car is?" the male officer asked.
"I'm the owner. I lent the car to this friend of mine to drive," Li Bo Kai stepped forward, pointing to Luofeng.
"Yes, I came back with my girlfriend yesterday, and the car was parked in the parking lot!" Luofeng chimed in.
After understanding the situation, the female officer said, "We will publish the information on our internal platform. Once there's any suspicious surveillance footage, we can follow the clues and figure out where the car went."
The female officer continued, "Mr. Luo, right? If you have your own resources, I recommend you check out various modified car markets or second-hand car markets; you might find something. After all, our capabilities are limited in such cases. If you're able, we can work together to find the car."
The male officer added, "The masked man in the video is a habitual offender, highly skilled at car theft. In the last few months, this is the fifth such car theft case. The first three cases yielded no results. According to our investigation, they likely modify and repaint the cars, change the license plates and chassis details, and make other alterations to evade our pursuit!"
"Alright, we'll also try our best to search," Li Bo Kai nodded.
"We will inform you if we have any news!" the female officer nodded.
When the two officers left, Li Bo Kai immediately started cursing, "It must be that Chen Ergou."
"I think so too. Chen Ergou is very familiar with such sneaky business!" Lin Xiaoyun seconded.
"I'll give him another call!"
As Li Bo Kai spoke, he dialed the number once more.
But this time, Chen Bolin didn't pick up. Li Bo Kai tried calling again, only to find he had been blocked.
"Heh, this Chen Ergou, he has completely infuriated me now!" Li Bo Kai complained.
"Alright, let's post on Moments Circle first," Chen Dali said. "Luofeng, I'm really sorry about this; this has been such a hassle for you. That Chen Ergou is truly despicable!"
Luofeng waved his hand. "Actually, it's fine. I was planning on getting Yunji a better car today anyway. Yesterday at Golden Harbour, Yunji had a spin on the track, and she doesn't actually like the Ferrari. I was planning to buy a new car, and now that this one's gone, it gives me a good excuse, doesn't it?"
"Hahaha, Brother Feng, you really know how to look on the bright side!" Lin Xiaoyun laughed out loud.
"Brother Feng, what car do you plan to buy for your sister-in-law? Let me know, and I'll gift you one too!" Li Bo Kai declared.
"Get outta here! I say, Spinach, when did you start channeling Zhang Shunyong? Can't you read the room? I must handle this matter myself," Luofeng laughed and scolded. "By the way, Xiaoyun, can you do something for me?"
"Oh? What's that?"
Luofeng said, "I plan to transfer this apartment to Duanmu Yunji. Can you help me with the paperwork? Oh, and I have her ID card."
"No problem at all!" Lin Xiaoyun nodded, but soon sighed. "Wow, Brother Feng, you're really going all out, huh?"
Luofeng rolled his eyes. "That's the talk of an old scumbag. This is true love; what do you mean 'going all out'?"
"Haha, it's mainly because Xiaoyun wasn't very well-off before. A 10 million yuan house, he calls that splurging? For Brother Feng, that's nothing!" Li Bo Kai chimed in. He was thinking of how their group had made nearly a billion last time, while Luofeng himself had easily cleared over a billion. To Luofeng, a 10 million yuan house, if not a trifle, then what was it?
"Speaking of which, Xiaoyun's reputation has actually improved recently, and it's all thanks to you, Brother Feng," Chen Dali said, looking at Luofeng. "Some of the young ladies in our circles are remarking that Lin Xiaoyun suddenly isn't so stingy anymore!"
"No, don't say it like that, I'm still stingy!" Lin Xiaoyun grumbled. "Especially with the ladies, I *like* being stingy!"
"..."
Luofeng was speechless. Was Xiaoyun already getting suggestive? It seemed Lin Xiaoyun was a veteran old goat.
"Brother Feng, what car do you plan to get for your sister-in-law? Since you want to take care of it yourself, let's go and try to get a discount!" Li Bo Kai said.
"The M8 Competition version," Luofeng said. "This model is suitable for daily driving and can also hit the track. Plus, it's fairly low-key; most people won't know it's a luxury car worth over 2 million. It's perfect for her to drive to school."
"Smooth as ever, Brother Feng!" Lin Xiaoyun gave a thumbs up.
"Brother Feng really knows how to take care of sister-in-law," Li Bo Kai commented with a smile. "It seems there's no doubt about the true love here!"
Luofeng just smiled without saying a word. After all, he wasn't stingy. AHEM. Though not stingy, he was willing to be generous to Duanmu Yunji. Besides, was it really a loss? He was profiting handsomely, wasn't he?
「Soon after.」
Riding in the BMW X3 that Lin Xiaoyun drove over, the group quickly arrived at the BMW 4S dealership.
The highest-end car launched by BMW at the time was undoubtedly the M8 Competition version. It started at 2.2 million, and selecting a few options would add another chunk to the price.
In fact, BMW had its own routines when it came to options, designed to get more money out of people. For example, the wireless charging function for front-seat smartphones? That was an option costing over ten thousand. Or the steering wheel heating feature, another six thousand yuan. After all, the winters in Capital City are indeed cold, aren't they?
Are you sure you don't want the steering wheel heating? You might be able to bear it, but what about your co-pilot?
So, the question is, what does steering wheel heating have to do with the co-pilot?
Don't ask.
If you do, it's because some male drivers, with a long-legged beauty in the co-pilot seat, can't keep their hands idle.
