At night, Murong Xue, who was supposed to sleep in the same room with Pei Xiu, suddenly sneaked into Qiao Zhen's room.

Qiao Zhen opened the door, looked at the woman in front of him, and said with a wry smile, "Why are you here?"

"Don't worry, she's asleep!" Murong Xue said with a wry smile.

As she spoke, she provocatively pushed Qiao Zhen away and entered the room.

"Come here so late, what's the matter?" Qiao Zhen turned around and closed the door with his back, but he didn't dare to approach.

There is no way, this woman is sometimes cold and arrogant, and sometimes enthusiastic, which makes Qiao Zhen not sure what kind of character she is.

"Aren't you going to tell me what you discovered today?"

Murong Xue sat on the edge of the bed, raised her head, and said with a smile: "Or, you don't trust me as a partner, and you don't plan to tell me what you know, so you want to leave someone to investigate?"

"If that's the case, then I'm afraid I'll have to buy a plane ticket and leave early tomorrow morning, after all..."

"Don't, you misunderstood!" Qiao Zhen hurriedly interrupted: "Actually, I discovered something, didn't you also discover it?"

"That guy, he doesn't seem right!"

Murong Xue nodded.

"Actually, when you told the mystery of these two mountains, I noticed that this guy's face was a bit tangled. Although he restrained the expression on his face, his right hand was always on the hem of his clothes, fiddling with it."

"And when we left, that guy was still staring at the mountain, with...not simple eyes, as if there was hatred and a little nervous."

Qiao Zhen smiled and said, "Sure enough, it's right to bring you here. It's amazing to observe the details!"

"Stop praising me!" Murong Xue smiled and said, "What about you? What did you find?"

"I am..."

Qiao Zhen was about to speak when suddenly there was another knock on the door.

Qiao Zhen and Murong Xue exchanged glances.

"Didn't you say she was asleep?" Qiao Zhen smiled wryly.

Murong Xue shrugged her shoulders and remained silent.

When Qiao Zhen opened the door, a figure rushed in quickly.

"Quick, close the door!"

Under the hurried voice, Qiao Zhen closed the door subconsciously.

When he saw who was coming, his face became more puzzled.

"Miss Li, what's the matter with you?" Qiao Zhen asked.

It was Li Ying who came.

Her expression was a little nervous, and she appeared out of breath after entering the door. She didn't even cover her veil, obviously because she was too nervous and anxious to go out.

Li Ying took a look and found that both Qiao Zhen and Murong Xue were in the room.

Although there are some doubts, but it is just passing by.

"Just now...someone stuffed a note in my room just now, take a look!"

With that said, Li Ying handed the note in her hand to Qiao Zhen.

Murong Xue stepped forward immediately, and together with Qiao Zhen, she read the contents of the note clearly.

A simple sentence is nothing more than threatening Murong Xue to leave Meizhou immediately, otherwise she will be left dead on the street.

The handwriting is very scribbled, it seems to be done on purpose.

"Heh, this person came very quickly. We just arrived in Meizhou. How did he find out where we live so early?" Murong Xue sneered: "You guys talk first, I'll go and check the surveillance, maybe I can find it." Some clues."

Qiao Zhen nodded.

In order to prevent the monitoring from being destroyed, it is understandable to understand it as soon as possible.

After Murong Xue left, Qiao Zhen noticed that Li Ying's expression was a little strange, he was about to say something, as if there was something unspeakable.

"Miss Li, we are here to help you. I hope you know something. Don't hide it. Tell us so we can analyze it together!" Qiao Zhen persuaded.

When he left at the foot of the mountain, what the bodyguard gave made him puzzled.

Li Ying took a deep breath and said, "Do you still remember the bodyguards who stayed in the ancestral house to search for clues?"

"Actually, when I left the village, the bodyguard gave me a piece of paper with a pen on it, saying it was..."

"Say what?" Qiao Zhen asked.

"The writing in the pen says that our great-grandfather killed his father, and he wants to wipe out the Li family!"

Li Ying raised her head and bit her lower lip: "And I received a call from home just now. My... my father and my younger brother have symptoms similar to mine."

Qiao Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and he frowned and thought about it: "Your great-grandfather killed his father, so...that man must be at least 50 or [-] years old."

"Combined with the analysis just now, this guy should be monitoring our every move all the time, maybe... it's the people around you!"

Li Ying's eyes widened: "You, you said he was by my side?"

Qiao Zhen nodded: "Think about it carefully, is there anyone around you who is over 50 and [-] years old and knows your every move!"

Li Ying pondered.

"The helicopter in the morning was arranged by my family when I called home."

"Besides these, there are not many people who know that I come to Meizhou, so..."

"By the way, Steward Li!"

After a pause, Li Ying shook her head: "No, it's impossible. Butler Li watched me grow up. If he wants to harm me, he has countless opportunities over the years."

"Whether it's me, my father, my brother, or my family, they all treat Butler Li as their own family. He can't do that!"

Qiao Zhen smiled wryly.

"You can't judge by appearance, anyone can harm you!"

"I actually have a question I want to ask you!"

"Butler Li... have you ever been to your ancestral house?"

After Qiao Zhen's words fell, Li Ying pondered for a while.

She woke up suddenly.

"He, it is impossible for him to know where our ancestral house is. When he came to our house, my grandfather was still alive. We recruited him in the country of Tau. I have no relatives, and I have been living in the country of Tau all these years."

Qiao Zhen smiled and said: "That's right, you forgot... Who took us to the ancestral house today?"

"It's him?"

Li Ying found it difficult to accept this result.

She took a few steps back and sat down on the edge of the bed.

At this time, Murong Xue ran back.

After she pushed open the concealed door, she immediately said to Qiao Zhen, "It's Butler Li, it's the note he stuffed!"

Qiao Zhen turned to look at Li Ying with a wry smile.

He didn't say anything, the latter naturally understood in his heart.

"How is it possible, this...how is this possible?" Li Ying muttered to herself, as if she dared not accept this fact.

Qiao Zhen took a deep breath: "Now is not the time to be sad, I think... that guy probably guessed that sooner or later something would happen, and he was afraid that he would make some desperate moves."

"Let's go, wake everyone up, it seems... we're going to go up the mountain overnight to find out!"

"It's best...to get ahead of Butler Li, otherwise I'm worried that something big will happen!"
