Rong Mu knew that every fifteenth day of the lunar new year, Mrs. Ye would come to Hanta Temple.
But he heard a monk speaking from Master Jingyun.
Today, old lady Ye came here with her granddaughter.
Rong Mu knew that that person must be Ye Chu.
So, he came to the hall and waited for Ye Chu to appear.
Ye Chu stood there, no one beside him.
Rong Mu seemed to have a chance.
Rong Mu walked to Ye Chu, but he always kept a proper distance from her and was very polite.
Rong Mu said in a warm tone: "You were from that day..."
Rong Mu pretended to be completely unaware, as if he only remembered that Ye Chu was the person who rescued A Yue that day, but did not know Ye Chu's true identity.
Ye Chu did not relax his vigilance because of Rong Mu's gentle appearance.
She still concentrated and was extremely cautious when dealing with Rong Mu.
Ye Chu nodded towards Rong Mu and called out, "Doctor Rong."
Rong Mu smiled, with a clear smile: "I walked in a hurry that day, and I haven't asked for the name of the lady."
Ye Chu knew that if Rong Mu was Mo Qinghan, then he must have investigated himself and knew her identity.
Ye Chu's voice was cold: "Ye Chu."
Rong Mu asked: "Miss Ye Er?"
Ye Chu pretended to be puzzled: "Do you recognize me?"
Rong Mu's voice was calm and quiet, and he smiled at Ye Chu: "I have heard people mention it."
Ye Chu is a daughter of a celebrity in Shanghai, with a lot of fame.
It is not surprising that Rong Mu has heard of Ye Chu's name.
Ye Chu kept observing Rong Mu calmly, wanting to see his reaction.
But Rong Mu seemed to have a good disguise, no matter what he said, his face was always calm and elegant.
Ye Chu's calm expression on Rongmu didn't see the problem at all.
Ye Chu didn't speak immediately. The two stood facing each other without speaking.
Rong Mu smiled and made a proposal to Ye Chu: "Miss Ye Er, let's go to the temple together."
Rong Mu has already started to leave, his steps are not hurried or slow, calmly.
As if waiting for her to come.
Ye Chu looked at Rong Mu's back and squinted slightly. She stayed in place for a few seconds.
After a little thought, Ye Chu followed.
In full view, Rong Mu would not do anything to her. What's more, now that she has such a good opportunity, she must check it out.
Rong Mu took a trail.
The road leads to the plum garden at the back, and there are people along the way. They are going to appreciate the plum.
Rong Mu watched Ye Chu follow, slowed down, and began to chat with Ye Chu.
The two were talking while walking.
Rong Mu said warmly: "What is Miss Ye Er doing here?"
Of course Rong Mu knew that Ye Chu came with his grandmother, but he still asked deliberately.
Ye Chu replied: "Come with my grandmother to offer incense."
In fact, she wanted to come here to see what was hidden in Hanta Temple.
Ye Chu's face remained as usual, as if he was answering Rong Mu's question seriously.
Rong Mu smiled, he didn't think Ye Chu would have other attempts.
In his eyes, Ye Chu is just a female student of Xinli Middle School, and at the same time, she is also a tool that can be used by him.
Rong Mu smiled: "Miss Ye Er is extremely filial."
Now that Rong Mu asked this, Ye Chu also asked Rong Mu: "Where is Doctor Rong? Why did you come to Hanta Temple?"
Ye Chu was suspicious, but he didn't show it on his face, and his expression was extremely calm.
Ye Chu didn't think that Rong Mu would answer truthfully, but she still wanted to get useful clues from his words.
Hearing Ye Chu's question, Rong Mu's tone was as usual: "I just came to listen to the abbot's lecture."
Rong Mu didn't say anything wrong, as long as Ye Chu found out at will, he would know that he would often come to Hanta Temple to listen to people's lectures.
At this time, the two stopped at the same time.
Just when they reached the plum blossom forest, they stood still by the tree.
There was a gust of wind, and there were many plum blossoms here, and the fragrance was very strong, lingering in the nose.
The chanting in the hall seemed to have become far away, almost dissipated in the wind.
There are people who appreciate plum blossoms, but Ye Chu and Rong Mu are very quiet here.
Ye Chu broke the silence at this time: "Oh? Doctor Rong and the abbot are friends?"
Rong Mu turned his head and looked at Ye Chu slowly.
The two eyes met.
Ye Chu's gaze fell straight into Rong Mu's, as if he wanted to see his secret.
Rong Mu looked into Ye Chu's eyes. He only felt that Ye Chu was serious, but he didn't know what she was thinking.
Rong Mu's every move was very natural.
Although Ye Chu told the truth, Rong Mu was very calm.
He smiled and didn't answer Ye Chu's question directly: "Everyone can be a friend, it just depends on the person's choice."
Ye Chuhu smiled: "Doctor Rong, you are right."
Ye Chu didn't want to be alone in such an environment with Rong Mu.
She had been guarding him from the beginning, her nerves tense and she did not dare to relax.
Now Ye Chu confirmed one thing, Rong Mu knew the abbot and came to Hanta Temple from time to time. He is most likely Mo Qinghan.
Therefore, she suddenly became nervous.
Ye Chu paused and said: "It's getting late, my grandmother is looking for me."
Ye Chu asked to leave, and Rong Mu naturally wouldn't stop it.
After bidding farewell to Rong Mu, Ye Chu immediately walked out of the courtyard and returned to the main hall.
After Ye Chu walked out of the yard, Rong Mu kept looking at the direction she left. He always stood there and didn't leave.
At this moment, Rong Mu's indifferent temperament disappeared immediately, as if he changed a person in an instant.
The fundus of his eyes is not as clean and peaceful as before, instead, there is a cloud of darkness.
Rong Mu's eyes darkened, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
…
The study room of the Warlord's Mansion.
The film in the miniature camera was taken out, and a blank sheet of paper was placed on the table.
That is Mo Qinghan's file.
It is clearly written in black and white.
Before Mo Qinghan entered Hanyang Prison, he had no criminal record and his background was extremely clean.
Mo Qinghan was imprisoned in this heavily guarded prison because he killed an entire tavern with very cruel methods.
However, the reason for his murder is unknown.
Lu Huai looked at the file in silence, his eyes sinking slightly, Ye Chu told him earlier about the relationship between Rong Mu and the abbot of Hanta Temple.
Now it seems that Mo Qinghan and Rong Mu have gradually overlapped.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Huai retracted his mind and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
The incoming person pushed the door in, his body was tall and straight, walked slowly in front of Lu Huai, and stood still.
He respectfully called out: "Three young masters."
It was Adjutant Zhou who had disappeared for a few months.
Lu Huai's voice was faint: "Thank you."
Adjutant Zhou: "This is my business."
Since the investigation of Mo Qinghan was extremely important, Lu Huai only wanted to hand it over to a trustworthy person.
In the past few months, Adjutant Zhou left Shanghai, whereabouts were secret, and contacted various dark guards.
It was announced to the public that Adjutant Zhou went home after being ill and would have to recuperate for a period of time.
Adjutant Zhou found out about the Hanyang Prison while investigating in Hubei Province.
While in Hanyang, Lu Huai and Ye Chu went to the black shop near the prison. The reason why Adjutant Zhou didn't show up was because he didn't want others to discover the abnormality.
"You go home and rest for a while." Lu Huai knew the hard work of Adjutant Zhou.
Adjutant Zhou hesitated for a few seconds, seeing Lu Huai's expression firm, he did not refuse.
The affairs of Hanyang Prison came to an end, and the follow-up conclusion has been reached. Adjutant Zhou's mission is over, and he will return to the Warlord's Mansion after a while.
After he left, Lu Huai picked up the phone on the desk and dialed a number.
This is a private line and belongs to Mr. Jiang.
Mr. Jiang's whereabouts are uncertain. He told Lu Huai that whether he can get through the phone depends on luck.
After a few rings, someone on the other end of the phone answered.
Lu Huai smiled: "Mr. Jiang."
Mr. Jiang's attitude is gentle: "Three young masters, what's the matter?"
Lu Huai is straight to the point: "I prepared a big gift and want to meet Mr. Jiang."
Mr. Jiang said, "Really?"
Mr. Jiang couldn't figure out Lu Huai's thoughts, so he became suspicious. Last time Lu Huai set a trap, but now, he has clearly agreed to cooperate...
I don't know what will be waiting for me.
Lu Huai said lightly: "Mr. Jiang doesn't have to think about it, I just found someone for you."
Lu Huai knew that Mr. Jiang was suspicious, and since they were a cooperative relationship, he would not hide it.
Mr. Jiang narrowed his eyes: "Who?"
Lu Huai's voice was extremely calm: "Wei Zheng."
There was a crack in Mr. Jiang's always calm voice: "Wei Zheng?"
Mr. Jiang searched for Wei Zheng for a long time, but he never found his whereabouts. Unexpectedly, Lu Sanshao could discover Wei Zheng's trace.
Lu Huai said: "Mr. Jiang find a place, let's meet."
Mr. Jiang already knew that Lu Huai was not hostile: "The gallery on White Road, where there are my people."
Because of Lu Huai's sincerity, Mr. Jiang told him a stronghold in the dark pavilion.
The gallery on White Road was opened by a hidden pavilion. It does not accept orders, but only accepts insiders from the secret pavilion.
Lu Huai: "This afternoon?"
Mr. Jiang: "Yes."
The two had reached an agreement and put aside the phone to prepare for the afternoon meeting.
Due to Wei Zheng's special status, after he returned to Shanghai, he was placed in a private house by Lu Huai.
This house is newly rented, and the personnel are all new faces, so as to avoid someone looking for him through the property under the name of the Lu family.
Lu Huai drove to the Peace Hotel and left after disguising himself.
The Peace Hotel was a mixed bag, with many people from various gangs in Shanghai. Lu Huai mixed in with that group of people and left soon.
Lu Huai went to the house to pick up Wei Zheng. They reached the gallery on White Road.
The entrance of the gallery was deserted and there was a sign on it that said it was closed.
The two opened the door and walked in.
After the turmoil in the dark pavilion, Wei Zheng escaped from the world, and there was no news. No one can find him. Everyone thinks he has suffered an accident.
The secret pavilion has already changed a group of people, and Mr. Jiang did not want others to know about this, so he dismissed the people here.
Only Mengba is left.
Meng Baming is the owner of the gallery. He doesn't talk much, he never asks about Mr. Jiang.
Two men in long robes and jackets entered the gallery. One of them was wearing a wide-brimmed hat, and the other was ordinary but with a cold temperament.
Mr. Jiang glanced: "Meng Ba, you go to the store."
Meng Baxin understood and understood that Mr. Jiang had something to discuss. After he answered, he walked quickly to the door, and the store door was completely locked.
Meng Ba stayed in the gallery and looked at the door to confirm the situation outside.
Mr. Jiang took the two into the secret room. Although his back was straight, he clenched his fists and his knuckles turned white.
Mr. Jiang stopped, he turned to look at the ordinary-faced man: "San Shao."
When Lu Huai entered the gallery just now, Mr. Jiang knew about it, and he made a disguise.
When Mr. Jiang appeared in front of people, he didn't show his true face. But Lu Huai was here, and Mr. Jiang didn't hide anything.
Last time, Mr. Jiang used this face when he saw Lu Huai. Anyway, no one will know his hidden true identity.
Lu Huai looked at the man beside him. He was wearing a long gray coat with a hat covering half of his face.
He took off his hat and showed a calm face.
Mr. Jiang scanned that face.
His facial features have not changed much, but his temperament has become sloppy, like a person from outsiders, not involved in red dust.
It is Wei Zheng.
Mr. Jiang slowly said: "Pavilion Master Wei, it's been a long time since I saw you."
He had been mentally prepared before, and his expression was calm and his tone was calm.
Wei Zheng's tone was calm: "Long time no see."
Lu Huai's gaze flicked across the faces of the two of them, their expressions calm. Reunited after a long absence, but there is a faintly depressed atmosphere.
It seems that they are keeping a secret at the same time.
It’s just that I don’t know what that secret is.
Mr. Jiang looked at Lu Huai: "San Young Master, where did you find Pavilion Master Wei?"
Lu Huai thought without hesitation: "Hanyang Prison."
Mr. Jiang was startled slightly, and soon calmed his mind: "Thank you, Sanshao."
Lu Huai: "You don't have to be polite, since we have cooperated, I will naturally help the secret court."
Mr. Jiang had always wanted to find Pavilion Master Wei, and Lu Huai fulfilled this wish for him, and the two established a deeper trust.
Mr. Jiang's attitude is extremely sincere: "If the three minors have any needs, the secret court must do their best to help."
He has always been magnanimous, and Ange will never betray the Third Young Master.
Lu Huai's goal has been achieved, and he will not stay longer.
"Mr. Jiang and Pavilion Master Wei tell the past, I'll take a step first."
When Lu Huai left, Wei Zheng and Mr. Jiang stayed in the secret room.
He just called Mr. Jiang's name: "Jiang Xun."
Mr. Jiang: "Master."
Wei Zheng valued Mr. Jiang and brought him up. Mr. Jiang is He Xun, and only the two of them know this secret.
Wei Zheng: "Are you back to He's house? How is your home?"
Mr. Jiang nodded: "He family treats me very well, just like before."
Wei Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. He understood Jiang Xun's difficulty. It's good to go back to Shanghai, but the He family doesn't know anything, Jiang Xun will inevitably conceal it.
Mr. Jiang: "Why did you go to Hanyang Prison?"
Wei Zheng's family was ruined back then, and he had no idea of survival, and was assaulted by others and went to jail.
He never thought of fleeing, thinking that he would end his life in prison in the future, but was persuaded by Lu Huai to leave the prison this year.
Wei Zheng did not find the enemy, only his voice.
He has been in prison for a few years, and now he is back in Shanghai, like a new life.
Wei Zheng's eyes sank. Since he is back, he must find the person.
…
Ye Mansion.
Ye Chu received a call.
Xiaohe said, "Second Miss, someone is looking for you."
"It's Miss Shang's family."
Ye Chu was stunned for a few seconds. She didn't know what Shang Yan meant to call her at this time. However, Ye Chu still answered the phone, thinking of a snake with her.
Ye Chu tentatively asked, "Shang Yan?"
Shang Yan's voice is cordial: "Ye Chu, it's me."
Ye Chu's voice was soft: "What can I do for you?"
Shang Yan: "After that banquet, we haven't had a good conversation. You went to Peiping the other day."
Ye Chu smiled: "That's what I said, I said that I need to contact more."
The tone of the two of them is intimate, as if they are in a very good relationship and know each other very well. It's just that both sides know in their hearts that they are acting.
Shang Yan: "Ye Chu, if you have nothing to do during your holiday, why not come to the Nanguo Restaurant for a meal."
Nanguo Restaurant is a Shangjia industry and is well-known in Shanghai.
In the previous life, Ye Chu had a dispute with Shang Yan there.
Ye Chu's face was dark, but he smiled and said, "Okay."
Ye Chu put aside the phone, went back to the room immediately, and called the Warlord's Mansion.
Lu Huai answered the phone.
Ye Chu told him what happened just now.
Lu Huai sneered: "She was careful enough to inquire."
Ye Chu: "What?"
Lu Huai: "That day, I will also go to the Nanguo Restaurant to meet with the Chief of Police."
Ye Chu narrowed his eyes: "Could it be that she wants to test us again?"
Lu Huai thought about it a little more: "That's not necessarily. Shang Yan believed you a bit earlier. She might want to know about your leaving Shanghai."
Shang Yan's purpose was to get close to Ye Chu. At the Shang Family Banquet, she had already understood the relationship between Ye Chu and Lu Huai, but she still had some doubts.
Shang Yan learned the news that Lu Huai would go to the Nanguo restaurant, and immediately set the date.
Of course Ye Chu had to deal with Shang Yan, using her as the starting point to find Mo Qinghan along the way.
This time the meeting will begin in the minds of the two.
…
That night, Ye Chu wore a simple dress and a warm coat.
In the deep winter, the temperature in Shanghai Beach is very low.
Ye Mansion’s car stopped at the door of the Nanguo Restaurant, and Ye Chu got out of the car.
Although the weather is cold, there are many guests in Nanguo Restaurant. People come and go here, and it's very lively.
Ye Chu walked into the lobby and suddenly felt warm.
She only stayed for a second, then started immediately, ready to go to the box that Shang Yan had booked.
At this moment, a person walked over in front of Ye Chu, his steps were fast, as if he was very anxious.
Ye Chu stopped.
If she is right, that person is He Xun.
According to He Xun's background, it is not surprising to appear in Nanguo Restaurant. But just now, although his look was normal, his physical condition was tight.
Ye Chu looked over, and He Xun was walking quickly on the corridor, not knowing what to do.
Ye Chu felt a bit weird. He Xun's temperament has always been lazy, what's wrong now.
She followed and stopped him aloud.
Want to see what happened to him.
Ye Chu's voice was questioning: "Hey School Director?"
He Xun had a terrible headache, and he was about to walk to the end of the corridor and leave here.
There are noisy voices everywhere, but he is out of place here.
Ye Chu called out from there, and He Xun's body froze.
He still wanted to leave, but the voice was so familiar, he stopped unconsciously.
He Xun stopped at the corner and he noticed Ye Chu's gaze.
He Xun turned his head and glanced at Ye Chu, his gaze fell straight into her eyes.
Just a glance.
He Xun's eyes were calm and his temperament was gentle.
Not like before.
