Sitting in the car heading for Mingjing Mountain, Shen Shu was still a little dazed. He didn't expect that Gu Yan not only contacted the Special Investigation Bureau, but also directly contacted the director.

From coming out to now, the news he heard about Gu Yan is true or false. The only real thing is everyone's fear and resentment towards him, especially the people under the Special Investigation Bureau. They don't seem to have anything to do with Gu Yan. Conflict, but just shouting and killing at him, a while ago even the whole team went out to chase Gu Yan.

It has been less than two months since "Gu Yan" was chased and almost died, and the two sides actually reconciled like this?

Shen Shu generally understood the reason, and Gu Yan told him yesterday, but he still couldn't understand this kind of life-and-death enmity, and he could just put it on hold because of some things.

If it was the real Gu Yan who was hunted down by the Special Investigation Bureau, no matter what, Shen Shu would never forgive the person who hurt Gu Yan. Fortunately, it was just a fake, so there is still room for relaxation of the relationship between the two. Shen Shu can naturally accept such a result.

Mingjing Mountain is only a few tens of kilometers away from Xining Town, and the car quickly arrived at the foot of the mountain.

When Shen Shu just came back, he heard Song Yan and Cao Chengwei talk about Mingjing Mountain. At that time, Song Yan hadn’t come to work in Xining Town, but he was passing by Xining Town on a mission with Cao Chengwei, and happened to meet Shen with Gu Yan at the breakfast stall. Book.

Mingjing Mountain seems to be a secluded place for some senior puppet masters, and several very powerful seniors live there.

The target of their operation this time is one of the old men surnamed Li.

Mr. Li has long since retired and doesn’t care about world affairs. He has almost never been down the mountain in these years. He only went down the mountain to bury his old friend’s family after an accident at his old friend’s house. After many twists and turns, he brought his only grandson with him. up the mountain.

Mr. Li's old friend is Zhao Hongshi, who is not very strong, but the two are connected, and Zhao Hongshi joined the Special Bureau of Investigation under Mr. Li's recommendation.

A few years ago, Zhao Hongshi didn't know who he offended, and his whole family was wiped out overnight, only his grandson who went out on a spring outing saved his life. Mr. Li, as Zhao Hongshi's good friend, took care of their funeral affairs.

Although Zhao Hongshi's grandson was not at home at the time, he was also targeted by those people. At that time, he separated from his classmates and disappeared in the mountains and forests without a trace.Later, Mr. Li insisted on looking for someone. After searching for about a month, he was rescued from the mountain.

Today, Zhao Hongshi's grandson is still accompanying Mr. Li on the mountain. Mr. Li treats him as his own grandson and hardly lets him go down the mountain. He is afraid that those people will come to him again and cut off the only blood of his old friend. .

Zhao Hongshi's grandson is named Zhao Shu. It is reasonable to say that Zhao Shu has almost never been down the mountain, so it is impossible to have contact with Huo An and others, but Gu Yan insists that he has a close relationship with Gu Yan.

Xiang Xiuqi, as the representative of the Ningguang City Branch, had already contacted the people on the mountain in advance, so after walking up the mountain road for less than 5 minutes, someone came to pick them up.

Like Duping Mountain, Mingjing Mountain is also a place similar to a resort, but this resort is not open to the public, and everyone living in it is not ordinary people, including the service staff who take care of the elderly, they are also puppet masters, just Those who are not talented enough to work in the SBI.

Mr. Li is not too old, so his residence is not in the innermost place. After walking for nearly 10 minutes, they came to a small building.

The houses here are very sparse, and the distance between two houses takes more than ten minutes to walk, so standing in front of the small building, you can only see all kinds of mountains, rocks and trees in all directions, like a paradise.

In the small building, Mr. Li was already sitting in the living room waiting for them. After a few people entered the room, the old man got up cheerfully, looked at Xiang Xiuqi and said, "You are Xiao Xiang, right? You look young and promising , as expected of our Ningguang City branch.”

Xiang Xiuqi said a few words of humility with a smile, and followed him to the inner hall.

At this time, a young man in a dark blue short jacket came in dragging a tea tray and served tea to everyone.

Mr. Li asked: "Where is Xiaoshu? There are guests at home, let him come out and meet him. Doesn't he always want to go down the mountain to work in the branch office, so I just want to chat with Xiaoxiang first."

The young man lowered his head slightly and said, "Mr. Li, Xiao Shu hasn't come back after going for a walk on the mountain behind, so I'll call him right now."

Mr. Li let out a sigh and said, "This kid, why are you so good at picking your time! Hurry up and go."

When the young man walked out, Mr. Li looked at the people kindly: "Is there something wrong with the branch office? Otherwise, why would you remember to see me, an old man?"

"Old sir, we miss you every day. Now every time the director holds a meeting, he will tell us about your great achievements in the past." Xiang Xiuqi flattered.

The old man smiled and waved his hands: "Okay, that kid just knows how to be poor, don't listen to his nonsense! Tell me, what's going on this time?"

Xiang Xiuqi smiled and said: "What nonsense, your contribution is obvious to all. As for the purpose of our visit this time, one is to visit you. Look at your situation. The second is for your grandson, Zhao Shu."

"Zhao Shu? Do you know him?" Mr. Li asked a little strangely.

Xiang Xiuqi shook his head slightly, and looked at Gu Yan and Shen Shu who were sitting aside.

Mr. Li's eyes also moved over, frowned slightly and thought for a while, then suddenly pointed at Gu Yan and said, "You, you are the grandson of the old Gu's family! You, what is going on with you? Xiao Xiang, what is this? What's going on, why no one notified me that he's coming too!"

He looked a little annoyed and his face darkened.

"Isn't the Special Investigation Bureau at odds with Gu Yan? How can you bring him up the mountain?" Although he was on the mountain and didn't know much about the situation down the mountain, Gu Yan's affairs almost involved the entire puppet master world. He has heard of how vicious it is.

Gu Yan slightly raised his eyebrows: "I have a reason for coming here, old man, I have a birthday photo here to give you something, you can discuss my affairs after reading it."

Hearing this, Mr. Li swallowed the words abruptly, took the letter from Gu Yan, opened it and squinted his eyes.

Shen Shu asked softly, "Brother, is this letter true?"

Gu Yan nodded: "Of course it's true, Ding Jinya took it back."

After reading the letter, Mr. Li's face became ugly, and he looked at Gu Yan full of scrutiny.

"Don't look at me like that. The fact is, it has nothing to do with me. If your grandson didn't want to harm the people around me, even if he smashed the sky, I wouldn't look at him more."

Mr. Li sneered, and then said to Xiang Xiuqi: "What do you mean now, are you sure that Xiaoshu is suspected?"

Xiang Xiuqi looked down, staggered his gaze, and remained silent.

"Okay, okay! You probably forgot how Xiaoshu's family died! My old friend was wiped out for the special investigation, and only this little blood is left. I will never allow you guys to treat him Let's do it!"

"I think Shouzhao has been sitting in that position for too long, and his mind is confused, completely confused. I'll call him right now and ask him what he wants to do. How dare he treat a hero like this!"

Gu Yan leaned on the back of the sofa and said with a sneer: "Mr. Li, did you say something wrong? Did your old friend Zhao Hongshi really destroy all his family for the sake of the Special Investigation Bureau?"

Mr. Li's anger froze for a moment, and then he said angrily: "What do you mean? Are you starting to pour dirty water on the dead people now?"

Gu Yan looked at him, with a smile on his lips: "Mr., you should know all kinds of reasons better than anyone else. If you want to completely overthrow what happened back then, and investigate clearly, then continue to protect that Zhao. You are innocent for the rest of your life, and you don't want to lose it at the end of the day, do you?"

"You have to think clearly, Zhao Hongshi is dead, but it's a compliment to mention him now, but if you don't give in today, I'm afraid his grave will be pulled out."

Mr. Li fell back on the sofa and looked at Gu Yan with an arrogant expression, but his hands were trembling slightly. He snorted coldly and said, "Zhao Hongshi's whole family was killed because he offended others in order to do the task. There is no doubt about it. I don't know what happened, but after all these years, I would like to know what else you can find out?"

"Why do you always take chances? Mr. Li should know me a little bit. I never do things that I am not sure about." Gu Yan said, "And the relationship between the old man and Zhao Hongshi is so good, it is impossible for so many years. Haven't found any clues, have you? According to your character, if you found your enemy, how could you not avenge him?"

"Mr. Li, let me tell you the truth, we must have evidence to find this place. Director Shou didn't want to make it too difficult for you, so he didn't contact you directly, but let us deal with it, whether it's for yourself , I still want to keep Zhao Hongshi's reputation, so don't protect Zhao Shu anymore."

Seeing the stubbornness on the old man's face, Xiang Xiuqi felt helpless, so he could only speak clearly.

Mr. Li's face was visibly depressed, he took a deep breath, and said: "Yes, I went to check and found some things, but the past is over, and Hongshi didn't cause any loss to anyone. I also paid the price for my greed, what else can I do, to hold him?"

"Xiaoshu was only sixteen at the time, and it was impossible for him to be involved in such a thing as a child, so I destroyed the things I found. I thought that this incident that had no impact and left no future troubles would be I was taken directly into the grave, how can I expect..."

Shen Shu understood: "It seems that you have also discovered Zhao Shu's abnormality, right?"

Mr. Li neither nodded nor shook his head. He just looked at the unmelted snow on the hillside outside through the window. Obviously, he had already noticed Zhao Shu's abnormality, but he was unwilling to admit this fact.

At this time, two figures appeared on the hillside, walking slowly towards this side.

Mr. Li looked at them and slowly closed his eyes.

"Isn't the lesson from exterminating the family not enough!"

Shen Shu raised his eyebrows and said, "People's desires are endless."

The two walked into the living room, the young man in the dark blue jacket bent over and walked towards the tea room behind, while the taller young man greeted everyone with a smile, and then sat beside Mr. Li.

"grandfather!"

he called out.

Old Man Li opened his eyes, and said to Gu Yan very tiredly: "This is Zhao Shu...you..."

After speaking, he waved his hand and closed his eyes again.

Zhao Shu looked at the guests with some doubts.

But Gu Yan lowered his face: "This is not Zhao Shu, where is Zhao Shu?!"
