Reading Agreement

It was around ten o'clock, and the two went out together to Liuyuan.

It was still raining outside, and the underground garage had a musty smell that couldn't go away.Gao Yang silently followed behind Shi Zhen, he was not sure about Young Master Shi's mood, so he didn't dare to speak out when he was speechless.The car lights were unlocked while the lights were flashing. Gao Yang walked to the side of the car, opened the rear door, and got in short.

There was also a strange smell in the car that couldn't escape. Gao Yang got into the car with only half of his body, and felt his neck tighten and he was pulled out.Immediately afterwards, he felt someone push the back of his shoulder, and he took two steps towards the co-pilot's position without rhythm.

"Second driver." Shi Zhen ordered coldly, turned to the driver's seat and sat in.

"The co-driver can't stretch his legs in the back row." Gao Yang muttered to himself, but he didn't have the guts to resist and sat in the back row.He had no choice but to struggle with his expression, sat on the co-pilot unhappily, reached out and pulled off the seat belt, and fastened it firmly.

"Is there a nail on the passenger seat?" Shi Zhen didn't start the car, but turned to look at Gao Yang, his right eyebrow raised, with a domineering expression on his face.

Gao Yang laughed dryly, feeling that it was safest to bow his head and confess his love at this moment.

"Cut." Shi Zhen disdained, started the car, and then drove the car out of the garage.

It was still raining heavily outside, and Shi Zhen didn't think about talking about adjusting the atmosphere in the car, so he still didn't say anything all the way, but let the car drive in the direction of Liuyuan dully.

Halfway through the drive and waiting for the red light, the rain outside the windshield was obviously much lighter. Gao Yang couldn't help but said: "The workers have already settled in Liuyuan yesterday. Will it become a ruin today?"

"Are you going to demolish your ancestral house?" Shi Zhen asked coldly.

Gao Yang thought for a long time before answering: "...probably not."

"Then why worry, what's more, if it's going to be demolished, you and I can't stop it." Shi Zhen disagreed.

"We'll get there later, is there a way for you to get in?" Gao Yang asked curiously.

Shi Zhen made a funny expression, shook his head and replied: "No, his private house is still in the renovation stage, how can I get in? Go in like you? Well, don't worry, go to Liuyuan to see it first. Looking at the situation, it is still unknown whether it has the information we want to solve the case.”

Gao Yang thought to himself, that is to slide the watermelon rind, it doesn't matter where it slides.He felt that he was not satisfied with this answer, and he wanted to say something more, but he was afraid that if he said too much, he would lose his mind, so he stopped struggling and leaned against the car window silently looking at the car window covered with raindrops in a daze.

The car didn't drive very smoothly all the way, passing through the city center halfway, there was a bit of a traffic jam, and when it arrived near Liuyuan, it was 35 minutes later than expected, and it was already past eleven o'clock.

After getting out of the car, the rain had already stopped. Gao Yang was worried that during the meal time, Shi Zhen would go to have lunch first if he was upset. Wouldn't it be even later to see Liuyuan.So he resolutely walked up to Shi Zhen, and led him there with a slightly faster speed.Fortunately, Shi Zhen didn't care, and kept a one-person distance from Gao Yang, walking casually all the way, crossing two streets, and soon arrived under the fence of the willow garden last night.

There was no car or pedestrian passing by on the road, so the sound behind the fence became very clear.The uninterrupted "chug chug" sound sometimes came from far away, and sometimes it seemed to be on the side of the fence.In addition to the sound of machinery, there are also the sounds of various wheels rubbing against the ground, as well as the muffled impact sounds that come from nowhere. All kinds of sounds gather together and are released from the willow garden.

"Have you already done it?" Gao Yang leaned towards the gap in the fence to get something, but in the end he only saw a smear of darkness.

"This kind of fence is sealed to the extreme, how could it be possible for you to peek into it." Shi Zhen stood upright, watching Gao Yang looking for cracks to peek in, really wondering if he had voyeurism.

"It's all black." Gao Yang looked at a few places, but found nothing, and was depressed.After a while, he seemed to think of something again, so he couldn't wait to touch the fence, hoping to find those repaired traces.

The heavy rain last night had already soaked the fence, and Gao Yang had nothing to gain except touching the wet water and fence crumbs.

"Did you get water in your head from the rain yesterday?" Shi Zhen looked at it amusedly, and couldn't help but sneer: "I told you yesterday that the repaired place uses a material imitator. Once this kind of thing is used, no matter what it used to be No matter how bad the holes are, they can be perfectly integrated with the surroundings, and there is no trace of damage. In addition, with so many maintenance records, you think the Jin family will not know about it. Will you check it?"

Gao Yang curled his lips: "I'm cheap, right?"

Shi Zhen: "..."

Gao Yang wiped off the water and debris from his hands, looked up at a branch protruding from the top of the fence and said: "Although this fence is tall and strong, and it is covered with anti-theft systems, its thickness is limited after all, and it is easy to dig if you don't calculate well." Tell me, what kind of mysterious thing is Mrs. Jin hiding inside?"

"If it's a thicker concrete wall, you might be able to hide a corpse or something. This fence... Even if it's hidden, it's an extremely small thing, but an extremely small thing is a broad concept, and it's really uncertain for a while. "Shi Zhen took a look at the fence, then took a step, and walked along the fence towards the gate. At this time, he walked in front of Gao Yang.

"Why don't we guess?" Gao Yang quickly followed, and couldn't help but suggest.

Why does Little Fox have so many questions today?Shi Zhen frowned slightly, stopped suddenly, turned around, and before Gao Yang could react, he made a sudden move, his index finger and thumb flicked towards Gao Yang's forehead, and instantly stopped Gao Yang.

"You... why are you... why are you hitting me?" Gao Yang covered his forehead and looked at Shi Zhen pitifully.

"Don't ask me questions that I don't know the answer to, okay?" Shi Zhen raised his eyebrows, looked at his aggrieved eyes and asked with a smile, "Will you go? If you don't, I'll pluck your hair."

"Let's go." Gao Yang growled, immediately hugged his head, ran in front of Shi Zhen, and deliberately pulled a distance of more than one meter away from him.

The two walked slowly along the fence one after the other, and came to the main entrance of Liuyuan inadvertently.At this moment, a large blue pickup truck was parked at the gate, the body of which was piled up with various construction materials, and some workers were busy moving the construction materials into the yard.

It is precisely because of the materials being transported that the gate of Liuyuan is completely open at this time. As long as you stand on one side, you can clearly see one or two of them from the outside.

The two stood under the corner of the street, like two pedestrians waiting for a bus, their eyes wandered around, and they didn't completely regard Liuyuan as their target.The workers were busy with transporting and had no time to care about others, so Shi Zhen and Gao Yang kept changing positions, walking up and down, as if they were waiting for a bus, but in fact, they had already glimpsed all the places that could be seen inside Liuyuan from the gate. clean and dry.

At this time, the fountain in Liuyuan last night had disappeared, and a three-story main building was clearly visible 50 meters behind its foundation.But it really only has the main body left, except for the columns and a few load-bearing walls, the building has been almost completely demolished.The ruins on the ground are still waiting to be cleaned up, some old windows have been dismantled and piled up on one side, and some decorative wood carvings on the building are also neatly piled up on the side.

Gao Yang repeatedly observed the inside of the gate. It was almost the same as what he saw last night. The only difference was that only the skeleton of the building remained, and the fountain was also dismantled.

Gao Yang looked inside and said to Shi Zhen in a low voice: "Judging from the exterior of the building and the original parts stored on one side, although the house has not been lived in for a long time, it is not old. You can see that the building parts are not badly maintained. How bad is the Jin family's displeasure with this house, to make such a fuss over and over again?"

Shi Zhen said lightly: "There must be some unhappiness, the specific point of unhappiness, I have to find out slowly."

"Look at the back, the garden behind the house." Gao Yang said in a low voice, directing Shi Zhen's gaze to the back of the willow garden.

Behind the empty pillars of the three-story building, there is a small garden looming, with grape trellises, flower gardens and a small half pillar of a small pavilion, all of which have become part of the ruins.

Passing through the garden, if you look forward, there are rows of big trees and the familiar black fence, and there is the end of the willow garden.

"I remember Mr. He said that the Liuyuan has not been inhabited in recent years." Gao Yang looked at the almost messy Liuyuan and said with a sigh: "However, it has been continuously repaired, renovated, and even refurbished in the past three years. Even the floor, water and electricity, and beams have been meticulously maintained. This is a very meticulous maintenance of the small building, but now it is a pity to destroy all the previous things in order to find one thing."

"What do you think?" Shi Zhen asked casually.

Gao Yang glanced inside the iron gate and said: "Old Mrs. Jin is gone, and her family has no attachment to the old house she loved the most during her lifetime. When she left, they demolished it all. Doesn't it mean to vent your anger?"

"Venting anger?" Shi Zhen raised his eyebrows, thought for a while and said, "According to the investigation, Mrs. Jin has released all the power of the family. The eldest son controls the company, the second and third children have also gained benefits, and the two daughters have also taken control of the company." A lot of benefits have been shared, and she has become an old man who takes care of her life, so she should be considered as benevolent and righteous to the children, right?"

"Do you think the distribution of assets is unfair?" Gao Yang asked.

Shi Zhen shook his head: "It's unlikely. I checked the Jin Group. This family business is obsessed with the hereditary system. It is logical for the boss to take over the family business. Ms. Jin's industry came from her father and was eventually passed on to her family business. The first son is in line with their family's usual style. Moreover, in the industry, the Jin family is also known for its unity, and there are very few intrigues between brothers and sisters. At least from outsiders, it looks like harmony."

"Ms. Jin passed the position to her son. Could it be that her husband is the son-in-law?" Gao Yang blinked, showing a look of gossip.
