Twelve o'clock in the morning.

Su Mu opened her eyes and went out again like she did last night. This time she searched towards the west.

The houses in this direction all seem to have their own yards, and some of the yards here are still lit.

Although electricity is not a rare commodity in this era, few people would keep the lights on all night, unless they are very rich or...

Su Mu walked forward again stealthily.

Wait! Su Mu suddenly saw a familiar face—the thief he met at the night market that day.

Su Mu watched the thief walk into an alley.

Su Mu followed quietly.

When she reached the end of the alley, she saw the man knocking on the door of the family, and then he seemed to have given some secret code before he was allowed to enter.

Su Mu looked at the wall of the yard and saw that although it was not high, she could easily climb up, but she did not act rashly as no one knew what was going on inside.

But it is probably certain that this is where the gang of pickpockets settled in Ningnan City.

Su Mu waited for a while, but saw no one coming out, so she continued to search other buildings.

Because her purpose of sneaking in was not only to check the old nest, but also to find out the situation of the buildings in the West District and see if they were the same as the West District map backed up by the police station.

By the time Sumu had explored the entire west district, it was already around four in the morning, and daybreak would soon arrive.

Su Mu hurried back.

Su Mu saw that the hair in the crack of the door was not touched, so she pushed the door open carefully and slipped in.

She realized something was wrong the moment she entered the door. Su Mu closed the door tightly and locked it.

Then she immediately prepared for battle. She looked at the figure sitting on the sofa, why did he look familiar?

"You're back!" the man said.

When Su Mu heard the sound, he immediately pressed the switch next to the door, and the room instantly became bright.

Su Mu blinked quickly and adjusted to the suddenly brighter living room.

"Uncle Hui! Why haven't you slept yet?" Su Mu asked calmly, his body tensed.

"You can't sleep? But you, going out so late at night, shouldn't you explain yourself properly?" Ah Hui took out a cigarette and lit it.

Su Mu laughed dryly twice, "I can't sleep, so I went out for a walk!"

Ah Hui exhaled a puff of smoke, without saying anything, and stared at Su Mu.

Su Mu's expression remained unchanged, and he returned to his usual indifferent look, secretly preparing to take action at any time.

"Hahaha..." Ah Hui suddenly laughed a few times, then crushed the cigarette in the ashtray.

Then his face changed and he said, "Okay, I know what you are here for!"

Su Mu became more alert, but said calmly: "Uncle Hui, what are you talking about? I don't understand..."

"Maybe...you...can call me Ke Fu!"

Su Mu's eyes flashed with doubt. Who is Ke Fu?

"Heh..." Ah Hui, no, Ke Fu sneered, "It seems that your police department is unreliable. Even I couldn't find anything?"

Su Mu became even more confused.

"That's right. I have always been in secret. Apart from Master Xu, few people have seen me..." Ke Fu said again.

Su Mu was shocked. He didn't expect that his luck was so bad that he fell into someone else's hands.

Ke Fu looked at Su Mu's vigilant expression, smiled with relief and said:

"Don't be nervous, my goal is the same as yours!"

?What the hell? Does this mean he is going to rebel against Xu Kun?

Su Mu was shocked, but she didn't believe Ke Fu's words.

"I know you don't believe me, but if I was lying to you, I would have taken you to Xu Kun on the first day!"

It seems so, Su Mu thought.

"Why?" Su Mu asked.

When Ke Fu heard this, his eyes were filled with hatred, and then he quickly restrained himself, "Sit down!" Ke Fu motioned to Su Mu.

Upon hearing this, Su Mu seemed to relax his guard and walked over casually.

But when she passed the dining table, the knife in the fruit basket disappeared without a trace.

Ke Fu stared blankly at Su Mu walking towards him. His tall figure and eyes looked a little familiar, but his indifferent temperament made him feel unfamiliar.

Once upon a time, his daughter looked like this, but his daughter exuded a sunny aura and was sitting next to him and acting coquettishly to him not long ago!

Su Mu sat down and looked at Ke Fu who was in a daze, and had some guesses in her mind.

"Ahem..." Su Mu reminded.

Ke Fu suddenly woke up, took out a cigarette from his bag and lit it. Su Mu looked at the ashtray full of cigarette butts. She remembered that Afen had cleaned it out before going to bed.

It seems that Ke Fu is not at peace!

"As you can see, I originally had a happy family and a daughter as old as you, but..." Ke Fu paused and said bitterly:

"But I said something wrong to Xu Kun not long ago. He clearly said he would spare me, but he still attacked my daughter!"

"My daughter is just a child!!!" Ke Fu's voice suddenly became louder.

Su Mu had long known that Xu Kun's methods were vicious and cruel, and he also guessed that perhaps the death of Ke Fu's daughter was related to him, but he did not expect that Ke Fu just said the wrong thing.

Su Mu felt sorry for the girl, but she didn't show it at all and remained calm on the surface.

Ke Fu took in Su Mu's expression. He originally wanted to arouse Su Mu's sympathy, but he didn't expect her to react like this.

Ke Fu suddenly didn't know what to say next.

"So you want to rebel against him? Or..." Su Mu asked.

Ke Fu didn't answer, he actually wanted to replace Xu Kun's position.

Su Mu looked at the look on his face that indicated he had other intentions and knew that he definitely wanted more than just revenge for his daughter.

Ke Fu knew that his thoughts had been guessed, so he simply admitted: "Yes, I also want to replace Xu Kun.

But that’s because if I don’t do this, my wife and I will still be in danger!”

"Then what kind of help can you provide?" Su Mu asked calmly, crossing his legs, as if he didn't care what exchange conditions Ke Fu could offer.

Ke Fu was unsure of what Su Mu meant. He hesitated for a moment and said:

"I can provide their specific location and deployment!" Ke Fu also concealed the most important point.

Su Mu relaxed his body and leaned back in the chair, tapping the armrest with his index finger without saying a word.

"Uncle Hui, I hope you can tell me the truth, but now you have no sincerity at all, how can I explain it?" Su Mu said casually.

Ke Fu's face suddenly fell, and he said viciously: "Aren't you afraid that I will send you to Xu Kun?"

"Oh, is it so?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Mu jumped towards Ke Fu like a leopard with its tail bent, and the knife in his hand was revealed!

She used one hand to support herself on the coffee table and kicked Ke Fu in the temple.

Ke Fu reacted quickly and blocked it. Seeing this, Su Mu somersaulted behind Ke Fu. Ke Fu also stood up quickly, and the two of them started fighting in the narrow living room.

Ke Fu guessed that Su Mu might have some kung fu skills, but the more they fought, the more shocked he became, as his skills were more like those of a veteran soldier.
