"Sir, the car plate number is also on it. I can help you investigate further."
Liu Fuquan said eagerly.
He was now similar to Fatso, who used to run errands for Lychee. He just wanted to find a big tree to rely on and gain some protection and benefits. After all, magic tools that Su Bai couldn't use were very useful for someone of his level.
However, Liu Fuquan was far inferior to Fatso. Of course, even the current Su Bai couldn't be compared to Lychee for the time being.
"No need, I'll find time to investigate myself. I don't have anything on hand that hasn't been cleared, and I can't give you anything. I'll give you 200 story points for now, and I'll help you exchange them for whatever you want."
Now that he knew that it was Ying Yinger, Su Bai did not need Liu Fuquan to continue investigating for him. The monk could run away, but the temple could not. If Ying Yinger really had a close relationship with that man and was even Liu Fuquan's primary school classmate, then he only needed to follow Ying Yinger's line of investigation and naturally dig out that man.
However, that man was at least a hundred years old, and he wasn't an old man. How many things had he experienced for a person who had maintained his youth for nearly a hundred years? How much wisdom had he accumulated?
Even in terms of temperament, ordinary listeners probably couldn't compare to such a person. After all, listeners' experiences were mostly stimulated and stimulated in a short period of time, while that man had accumulated and pondered for a long time. There was actually an essential difference between the two.
"There's no hurry, there's no hurry, Sir. I just finished a story world not long ago, and there's still some time before the next story world. I'm not in a hurry for these things for the time being."
Liu Fuquan waved his hand and then looked at Su Bai's phone, wanting to say something but hesitating.
Su Bai nodded. "Then, let's add each other on WeChat. You can contact me if you need anything."
This was also considered a verbal promise. Although there weren't any specific strict effects or restrictions, it was something that most low-level listeners couldn't ask for.
After adding each other on WeChat, Liu Fuquan tactfully sent the photo to Su Bai and left the information with Su Bai. Then, he respectfully left the office and helped Su Bai take the garbage bag from the trash can.
Su Bai lit a cigarette. He didn't smoke it, and just held it between his fingers. The smoke was a little dazzling, but Su Bai didn't notice it at all.
Liu Fuquan flattered him not because Liu Fuquan was lowly, but because he could do anything to survive. Liu Fuquan's mentality was nothing more than an instinctive method and reaction of many low-level listeners to seek protection. It was just like how Zhang Tie had fantasized about obtaining protection from Lychee in the past. Translator: XephiZ Editor: DOCuinn Liu Fuquan flattered him not because Liu Fuquan was lowly, but because he could do anything to survive.
As for Ying Yinger?
Su Bai looked at the photo on the phone again. This delicate and special woman actually had such a different background. That was even more interesting.
The line of fate was very mysterious. They thought they would never have anything to do with each other again. Even if they met in the same shop, they wouldn't bother to walk around the shelves and talk about the old days. Unexpectedly, they were going to meet again.
Su Bai didn't rush to look for Ying Yinger in the middle of the night. Instead, he lay on the bed with the little fellow and watched cartoons for a while. Then, he hugged the little fellow and slept soundly.
When he woke up the next day, he was full of energy. He went to the kitchen to make breakfast and ate with the little fellow.
The little fellow didn't make a fuss, and with Ji Xiang as a nanny, Su Bai really didn't have to worry about it. However, Su Bai suddenly felt that this detective firm was really unworthy of its name. Although the living space was small, it was enough for him to be with the people he cared about.
Other than Ji Xiang, who was dissatisfied and wanted to find another place to bask in the sun, Su Bai and the little fellow didn't have any dissatisfaction with their current living place.
After the little fellow finished his breakfast, he obediently sat on the carpet and played with his toys. Ji Xiang lay on the side and watched him to prevent any accidents from happening to him.
Su Bai didn't go out directly, but squatted beside Ji Xiang. While watching the little fellow play by himself, he asked Ji Xiang in a low voice, "When the woman left her high heels at the door that day, did you sense it?"
Ji Xiang nodded.
Su Bai also nodded. If Ji Xiang could sense it, then there was no problem. To a certain extent, a cat's spiritual sense was indeed much higher than a human's. When Su Bai faced the woman, he didn't find anything unusual. It might be because the other party had an artifact to hide her aura. Of course, Su Bai's increasing inclination towards close combat was also an important reason. When the other party didn't have killing intent towards him, nor did they prepare to attack him, it was indeed difficult for Su Bai to naturally sense the other party's hidden aura. If it was the monk, Fatso and the others, it would be much easier.
However, since Ji Xiang could sense it, Su Bai was relieved. It was likely that Ji Xiang didn't make a move at that time because it felt that the woman wouldn't pose any threat to the little fellow in the room, so it was too lazy to make a move. If the woman didn't just leave a pair of high heels at the door, but also planned to open the door and enter the office, the cat's claws would probably come down.
Ji Xiang didn't care whether the woman's suspicious actions would affect Su Bai. As a cat, its temperament had always been very rigid. For example, when the red-clothed man who followed Su Bai back and excitedly gave Su Bai a sect card, he was directly smashed to pieces by Ji Xiang's claws. To a certain extent, this cat only had one person in its eyes, even Su Bai was just an accessory.
He reached out his hand and rubbed Ji Xiang's furry head. "I have something to do, I'll go out for a while."
Ji Xiang was very disgusted with other people treating it as a pet, but it was too lazy to protest or feel disgusted with Su Bai's usual act of touching it. Because it discovered that when Su Bai had nothing to do, the little fellow would actually learn from him and occasionally crawl over to touch its head or tail. It was very clear that the little fellow was learning from its father, and Ji Xiang was happy to accept it.
The car drove out and stopped by the side of the road. Su Bai took out his phone and looked through it. Ying Yinger's WeChat did not have any friends, but Su Bai remembered that he had imported Ying Yinger's number before. It was just that his phone had changed quite a bit recently. After Su Bai downloaded it from the cloud backup, he found Ying Yinger's number and immediately dialed it.
After a long time, someone answered:
"Mr. Su?"
It was very clear that Ying Yinger had handled her client list very well.
"It's me. Where are you now? Is it convenient for you to come out and meet me?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Su. Because of some personal matters, my studio will be temporarily closed for a period of time. If you need, you can make an appointment here. When I deal with my personal matters and reopen the studio, I will call you first to inform you."
"But I miss you now. Can you accompany me for a cup of coffee?"
Ying Yinger did not expect Su Bai to suddenly say such words. She was a woman who was good at showing her beauty and was also a very smart woman. She could easily provoke the impulse in men's bones, but she could also control it. Therefore, Ying Yinger was very clear that with Su Bai's character, he was definitely not the kind of man who wanted to find a woman because he was lonely.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Su. It's really inconvenient." Ying Yinger still refused.
In Su Bai's view, this should have something to do with the man. The man returned to Shanghai this time to see his educated friend who used to jump the queue with him for the last time. If the man really lived for nearly a hundred years and was not old, then it was really inconvenient for him to stay in the same area for a long time. Shanghai was obviously the place where he stayed 20 years ago. If he continued to stay here, he might meet those people he knew or met before. His identity was actually very easy to be exposed.
"Can't you make an exception?" At this time, Su Bai was ready to give up the most direct way. It seemed that he still had to spend some effort to check some details of Ying Yinger.
"Then … well, I'll send you my location. I'm drinking coffee with a friend of mine. If Mr. Su doesn't mind, you can come."
"En."
Su Bai was a little surprised. Ying Yinger first refused and then agreed. Obviously, she was influenced by some kind of opinion, but soon the address was sent in the form of a text message. The distance was not very far. It was an open-air cafe.
…
"Dad, you shouldn't have asked me to agree to him coming." After putting down the phone, Ying Yinger looked at the man who was about the same age as her. "I told you about him. He is not an ordinary person."
"It's the same whether I agree or not." The man picked up the coffee, faced the river, and took a sip. "Yesterday, you said that you met him again, but you didn't have much interaction. But today, he suddenly took the initiative to look for you. It means that he may have found something. Since he is not an ordinary person, it is only a matter of time for him to find where you are in this city."
"But, Dad, it is very dangerous for you. Your identity …"
The man shook his head and stood up. He put his hands on the railing and looked at the river. He exhaled heavily. "Do you know why I came back this time?"
"To see your friend who went to the countryside with you for the last time." Ying Yinger said.
The man nodded. "In fact, it is not only to see him. There is another reason." The man was silent for a moment and sighed. "It has been almost eighty years. Miss, do you know? Eighty years ago, your father had just joined the army. At that time, he was also standing in this position. It was also about this place.
On the other side of the river, there were Japanese warships everywhere.
That cannon sound …
It was really loud … "
