Miao Miao, surname Miao. When her close friends or family members call her by her name, they would only think of the two words' Miao 'in their hearts. She was twenty years old this year. It was the season when Miao sprouts were growing and swaying in the spring breeze. However, this bunch of Miao sprouts were tall and straight. It was always pleasing and not eye-catching.
She was now a student in Linhai University, and her other identity was Park Ji Ho's fiancée. The golden-haired Park Ji Ho, although his life was not smooth sailing, he met his nemesis, Xu Le, and stopped abruptly before he had the time to develop his grand plans. But in terms of luck, he was pretty lucky.
Park Ji Ho and Miao Miao were family friends. Back then, they worked together in S3 and moved back to S1. According to the old rules, the two families arranged a marriage. Although it was not a terrifying family like the seven major families, after all, it was still a foundation. Park Ji Ho didn't expect to be free to love. Moreover, Miao Miao was a docile and pleasant girl. Most of his thoughts were on his future, so the two got along well.
After the tragedy on Hushan Road, Miao Miao, as Park Ji Ho's fiancée, naturally went to the Capital Special District. The funeral had just been arranged a few days ago, but the grief in the girl's heart couldn't be erased in such a short time. The elders of the two families were a little worried, so they simply asked for leave from school. Including the summer vacation, a total of three months, they let her go back to her hometown in S3 to relax. Today, in the high-speed train carriage, they were heading to the largest airport in Gangdu.
Her fiancé had just passed away, so in this late spring, Miao Miao wore a dull black outfit. Her small face was not powdered, and there was a trace of sadness in her pale face.
The girl who was traveling with her was called Nan Xiangmei. She was Miao Miao's good friend. They happened to meet in the Special District, so they agreed to go to Gangdu together. His relatives might still be sad, and his fiancée might need to spend several years to get rid of this bad news. However, others didn't have so many thoughts. Although they didn't sing and dance together, Nan Xiangmei had never seen the rumored handsome blonde boy. Therefore, when she saw her female companion's sad expression, it was naturally difficult for her to sympathize with her. She could only quietly comfort her and ease her worries.
Nan Xiangmei was definitely not a stunning girl. Her lush black hair was casually cut to the side of her ears. She was not as soft as the average long-haired beauty, nor was she as pretty as the short-haired girls. She was just calm, and her facial features also revealed a sense of calmness. If one looked at her carefully for a long time, one would be able to appreciate more and more of her beauty.
Listening to Nan Xiangmei's comfort, Miao Miao forced a smile. But when she thought of her fiancé in the cemetery, her heart couldn't help but twitch. She and Park Jigao didn't meet much, but the two of them had the same thoughts. She knew what kind of lofty ambition the blonde man had. Unexpectedly, after three months, he passed away just like that.
Miao Miao didn't know about Nan Xiangmei's family situation. At this age, no one would talk about their family background. But she knew that her friend's family shouldn't be short of money. And at this time, she was lonely and sad, so she was grateful to have her friend by her side to comfort her.
Miao Miao looked at Nan Xiangmei's calm eyes. After hesitating for a moment, she remembered the news that her sister-in-law secretly told her. That news had been suppressed in her heart, and there was no one to ask. Now that she was comforted by her friend, the sadness and anger in her heart suddenly rushed out. She tightly pursed her lips and said, "There is a secret behind Jigao's death."
"Didn't the District Prosecutor's Office close the case?" Nan Xiangmei was slightly surprised. She looked at her and said softly.
"It's just a scapegoat." Miao Miao's face showed a trace of sadness, "Jigao offended a big shot in the Federation, so he was killed."
Nan Xiangmei quietly looked at her eyebrows and confirmed that her friend didn't start talking nonsense because of the death of her fiancé. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Who told you?"
"Park Ji-sung. The elders in the family were worried that I would think too much, so they kept it from me."
Miao Miao sadly turned her head and looked at the mountains outside the car window that was covered with a layer of golden sunset. She thought that the sun would eventually rise tomorrow, but what about her lover?
Nan Xiangmei softly sighed. After a moment of consideration, she was sure that it was inappropriate for her to say anything at this time. She had no choice but to ask, "Who is so vicious?"
"I heard that it was a person who entered the nutshell with Jigao. He entered the research institute, but then disappeared." Miao Miao turned her head and sneered.

…
Bai Yulan shrugged. She carried the tray through the passage and opened the door of the private room. She thought that the sound insulation of the luxurious soft sleeper private room on the high-speed rail was too poor. The two girls inside actually didn't know who to avoid when they talked about murder and arson.
The luxurious soft sleeper private room occupied a large area. In addition to two comfortable beds, there was also a sofa and a few simple furnishings. Bai Yulan put the tray on the coffee table. She glanced at the big black box under the coffee table and looked at Xu Le.
Xu Le nodded.
Bai Yulan opened the big black box and pushed it under Xu Le's bed. When they left the capital, Xu Le always carried this big box with him. He didn't know what was in the box, but he knew that it was very heavy.
She poured a glass of orange juice for Xu Le. Xu Le said thank you. Then the two people couldn't find anything to talk about and began to eat in silence.
After the meal, Bai Yulan began to clean up the mess again. Xu Le was bored to death as she watched this delicate man busying himself in and out. For a moment, she couldn't help but have an illusion that she had spent 20 million yuan to buy a maid.
"How long will it take to get to Hong Kong?" Xu Le watched the TV for a while and suddenly asked.
"Just now the broadcast said that there was a flash flood along the New Yuezhou. Although it didn't affect the line, it is estimated that it will take about 10 hours to get there because of the Federation's disaster relief train." Bai Yulan softly replied.
Xu Le shook his head. The summer holiday was only four days. He had to secretly enter the Nutshell Engineering Department, so he could only use the holiday. Time was a little tight. If he didn't worry that the big black leather suitcase wouldn't pass the Federation's airport security check, he would never take the high-speed train. According to Bai Yulan, the luxury soft sleeper ticket was actually much more expensive than the plane ticket.
"Go one carriage in the A direction, there is a special bar." Bai Yulan said.
"Oh, since we have nothing to do, let's go walk around?" Xu Le asked for his opinion.
Bai Yulan had finished cleaning up and quietly replied, "I don't have any opinion, but I want to remind you of one thing … Park Ji Ho's fiancee lives next door."
Xu Le was stunned. He looked at Bai Yulan and gradually narrowed his eyes. The Hushan Road incident happened a long time ago. He knew that there were probably not many people in the Whitewater Company who knew about his relationship with that incident. Since Secretary Bai reminded him, he must know the inside story very well. How did he know?
"I have to find out who I am working for." Bai Yulan lowered his eyes and said softly, "Don't worry, as long as you don't violate the Federation's laws, I don't care if you are the son-in-law of the Deputy Minister of National Defense. I only care about money."

Since he knew that Park Ji Ho's fiancee was on the train and lived next door, Xu Le certainly wouldn't go to the bar to kill time. Although he did have a hobby of drinking now, if he really met a widow who was drowning her sorrows in alcohol, he really didn't know what would happen. After all, that widow's fiancee was killed by him.
Xu Le didn't have any psychological burden when he killed Park Ji Ho. Even the Hushan Road incident was just a matter of seconds. However, he didn't want to meet the relatives of the deceased. When he was spat on by Park Ji Ho's younger sister in the District Prosecutor's Office, although it didn't dry up, he didn't feel angry. He just silently wiped it away.
Park Ji Ho's fiancee probably didn't know him, let alone know that he killed Park Ji Ho. However, Xu Le didn't take the risk.
It wasn't until late at night that he walked out of the compartment and walked to the lounge at the end of the train. He sat on the sofa in the corner and looked at the whistling night outside the window. The curved and decelerating glass windows made the scenery outside clear but not dazzling. The air noise caused by the high-speed train was also reduced to a minimum.
He lit a cigarette and thought about the girl who was not far from him. He thought about Park Ji Ho's stunned and desperate expression under the knife at Hushan Road. He frowned slightly.
In the dim light, a girl walked over and sat on the sofa not far from Xu Le.
Smoking was allowed in the lounge. Three single sofas were placed in a triangle. The designer probably meant that there were only three luxurious sofa compartments on the train. Xu Le, who was sitting in the corner, saw the girl coming and thought about what he had been thinking. The cigarette in his hand trembled, and the ashes fell on his knees. He looked a little embarrassed.
He hurriedly tried to put out the cigarette.
"No, my family often smokes. I'm used to the smell."
Nan Xiangmei looked at the young man in the corner with a smile. She didn't secretly guess the identity of the other party. Although it was strange that the other party was staying in a luxurious compartment at such a young age, it was just that she misunderstood Xu Le's action of putting out the cigarette. She somewhat approved of this person's attentiveness and didn't want to be nosy.
She was not used to riding in such a luxurious compartment. Although her family definitely didn't care about the cost, she only came here to accompany her friend. The sleeping compartment at night didn't shake much, but she was still more used to riding the old-fashioned train alone in her early years. That kind of shaking felt real.
The lounge was very dim at night. After Xu Le heard the girl's words, he silently took back his hand that was putting out the cigarette. Looking at the calm smile on the girl's face, Xu Le knew that the other party should not be the widow that he didn't want to see. His mood was slightly relieved.
People who met by chance on the journey might strike up a conversation or remain silent. At this time, the man and woman on the sofa were silent.
The dim light didn't mean that it was ambiguous. The corner was darker. Xu Le quietly looked at the girl. The girl was wearing a plain dress, and her whole body exuded a sense of peace. At first, he didn't feel anything, but the more he looked at her, the more he could see the beauty of her face under her black hair.
When he was in Donglin, he liked to look at the few beauties on the street. When he was a gatekeeper, he also saw many youthful bodies. With just a few glances, he found that this girl was outstanding.
