In the mansion of Egret County.
Because it was the weekend, Su Qingxue did not go to work. She sat in the dining room downstairs, eating a fruit platter for breakfast while watching the morning news.
Aunt Jiang took out some dry clothes. Looking at the clothes that Ye Fan had left at home, the old woman sighed.
"Miss, Ye Fan was chased out by you last night and didn't come back for the whole night. He didn't even bring his luggage with him, could he be sleeping on the streets?"
Su Qingxue was stunned for a moment, then said with a frown, "He really didn't come back?"
"That's right, I saw that the room was empty in the morning. Could something have happened?" Miss, why don't you give him a call and ask? "
"He's such a big person, and it's not winter outside, so nothing will happen. He might have gone back to his place to sleep." Su Qingxue didn't want to take the initiative to call him.
Aunt Jiang hesitated for a moment, then said with a sigh, "Miss, don't think that I, an old woman, am talkative. Ye Fan mentioned the matter of the master to you last night, and it actually has something to do with his own experience …"
Su Qingxue looked at Aunt Jiang doubtfully, "What do you mean?"
"Miss, think about it, Ye Fan's parents both passed away when he was young. He grew up alone and lived alone, so he must be very eager to have his own parents …"
"When he saw that you and the master were arguing, he definitely didn't feel good. He wanted to have a father, but he didn't even have the chance to argue." Aunt Jiang said sadly.
Su Qingxue's beautiful eyes widened, and after a moment of absent-mindedness, she said, "Aunt Jiang, you said that he … …" He's an orphan? "
This time, it was Aunt Jiang's turn to be puzzled, "What, miss, you don't know?"
Su Qingxue bit her lower lip and a complicated expression flashed across her eyes. She recalled what Ye Fan said last night and suddenly understood something.
"I'll make a call and ask …" Su Qingxue picked up her phone and added, "Let me make it clear first, Aunt Jiang asked me to call, it has nothing to do with me."
When Aunt Jiang heard this, she covered her mouth and smiled. She squinted her eyes and said, "Yes, that's what I meant. Miss, you are really magnanimous."
Only then did Su Qingxue clear her throat and make the call.
Not long after, the call connected. Su Qingxue tried her best to make her tone gentle as she asked, "Where are you?"
"Outside." Ye Fan's reply was very cold.
"Of course I know you're outside." Su Qingxue snappily said, "Where are you now?"
Ye Fan asked, "What's the matter?"
She originally wanted to care about where the man slept last night, but Ye Fan's cold tone made her give up on this idea.
"Nothing much … I'm just asking …"
"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
Without waiting for Su Qingxue to say anything, Ye Fan had already hung up the phone.
The woman's pretty face slowly turned cold. She slammed her phone on the table, picked up her fork, and stabbed it into a piece of honeydew melon as if she had a grudge against that piece of melon.
"Aunt Jiang, don't worry about him, let him be …"
The old lady had a helpless look on her face. If she had known this would happen, she wouldn't have made the call!
In the alley, Ye Fan put his phone back into his pants pocket, took a drag of his cigarette, and swept his gaze across the dark skinned, thin man in front of him.
The man was dressed in ordinary street clothes, with a braid and a cap. From his facial features, one could tell that he was not from China.
"How did Mr. Ye find me?" The man spoke in English. There was a hint of doubt in his eyes. He believed that his tracking skills were top-notch, but he had been seen through after such a short period of time.
Ye Fan puffed out a mouthful of smoke and said expressionlessly, "You? It's you guys, right? You changed your stalkers three times in total. Including you, one woman and two men, your accent is from the Samar region of Country F.
If I'm not mistaken, the tattoo on the back of your hand and the eagle head ring on your finger, you are the bounty hunters of the B-rank organization 'Monkey Eating Eagle'. "
The braided man opened his mouth and was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled with a tense expression and said, "It seems that Mr. Ye is indeed not ordinary. No wonder he became friends with Dr. Ganesha."
Hearing the name GANESHA, Ye Fan basically guessed the other party's intentions. He said in a deep voice, "I don't care what you 'Monkey Eating Eagle' want to do, you shouldn't have come to me."
Mendo smiled and said, "Our organization is searching the world for Dr. Ganesha. In the laboratory of the Elephant Head God, there is a piece of information about the address of Hua Hai City. That's the apartment you live in.
To be able to make the Elephant Head God specially record the address, it must be someone he cares about. Mr. Ye, do you know where the Elephant Head God is … "
Ye Fan frowned. This elephant's nose actually left behind such a clue. He hoped that the Monkey Eating Eagle didn't spread this information.
"He's already dead, this is not a secret." Ye Fan said.
Mendo was stunned. He thought for a moment and said, "That's true, but he's the Elephant Head God, so …" Everything is possible. "
"I'll say it again, GANESHA is dead!" Ye Fan's tone became heavier, and his gaze became colder.
Mendo subconsciously swallowed his throat. An invisible pressure made him feel his body begin to stiffen.
Who the hell was this guy? Mendo's heart began to pound. After all, bounty hunters who walked the line between life and death were very sensitive to danger.
"Then may I ask, does Mr. Ye know where Dr. Xiang left the ANKH before he died?" Mendo gathered his courage and asked tentatively.
Ye Fan lightly said, "Something that no one has ever seen before, it's just an illusory rumor."
"Is that so..." Some rumors say that Dr. Xiang gave his inheritance to a mysterious friend for safekeeping … "Mendo carefully looked at Ye Fan's eyes and expression, trying to see something.
However, Ye Fan's face was calm, and he was just a little impatient.
"I've already said it clearly. I'll only give you five seconds to scram. Five …" "Four …"
Mendo was scared out of his wits. His heart skipped a beat. He turned his head and immediately ran away!
In the blink of an eye, Mendo, who was walking like the wind, had already run far away from this block.
Ye Fan finished smoking a cigarette and stepped on the cigarette butt. His eyes flashed with a hint of vicissitudes and helplessness as he muttered to himself, "Elephant nose, you said you're already dead, yet you still left me such a mess …"
Ye Fan shook his head and sighed. Although he had thought that he would be found sooner or later, he didn't expect it to be so fast. It was all because someone else had left an address there.
Originally, he wanted to be a peaceful little fart, earn some money, and live a comfortable life. But now, it seemed that this wish was going to fail …
Keeping a low profile can't solve the problem. Could it be that I'm a firefly in the night? Ye Fan thought self-deprecatingly.
He wasn't afraid of getting involved in some disputes, but he was afraid that some unscrupulous fugitives would target the people around him. Thus, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Thinking about all sorts of things, Ye Fan continued to walk towards Feng Yue Ying's house.
… ….
Two blocks away, in a small white car, Mendo and the other two Monkey Eating Eagle bounty hunters were discussing with frowns on their faces.
"What did you say? He already discovered us? "A woman dressed in fancy clothes asked.
"This person looks very ordinary. Could it be that he's deliberately bragging to scare you?" Another fat man guessed.
Mendo shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Impossible, this person is definitely an expert." Standing in front of him, I don't even dare to breathe loudly. I'm almost tongue-tied when I speak …
He was clearly standing there with flaws all over his body, but I felt that I couldn't defeat him at all … "I have a premonition that as long as I dare to make a move, I won't be able to come back."
The two companions sucked in a breath of cold air. The woman didn't quite believe it, "It can't be, how can it be so terrifying? "Your strength can be considered to be in the top five in our organization."
However, the fatty snorted and said, "So what if we're in the top five? Although we, the Monkey Eating Eagle, are a B rank organization and have some status in the underground world, this is China, a land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. It's better to be cautious!"
Mendo and the woman nodded. Indeed, it would be more difficult for them to sneak into China. They couldn't be too careless.
The fatty continued, "I believe that if there are many doors, then those who can be friends with the Elephant Head God will definitely not be ordinary. They should be experts …"
Are we just going to give up like this? It wasn't easy for us to find the information about ANKH first. The Guild Leader trusted us, so he let us carry out this mission. If we let others deal with it, where would our face be!
We are bounty hunters, licking blood from the edge of the blade and fishing for money from the frying pan. We can't just give up on such a big cake just because the other party might be an expert, right? "The woman was unwilling.
Mendo rubbed his chin and muttered, "Although he might be stronger than us, he is still a person of the society after all. He might have a lot of restraints around him. Just now, I heard him talking to a woman on the phone, maybe …" We can investigate the people around him. "
