In the surveillance video, Zhou Fang had just been handcuffed. When the man's eyes touched the phone in Zhou Fang's hand, they flickered subtly, and then a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "In this case, then say hello to my variable first."

He leisurely picked up the phone beside him, found Zhou Fang in the list, and sent the first message.

As the first message was sent, the man stared at the surveillance screen with anticipation and curiosity in his eyes. What kind of pleasing expression would his changes bring?

But it was obvious that he was disappointed. In the surveillance video, Lu Anan's face only subtly sank, and he did not show any panic or fear.

The man frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and after thinking for a while, he continued to send the second message.

The man looked at Lu Anan on the monitor. There was nothing on his face except curiosity and confusion. His expression turned gloomy at that moment.

"She forgot about me?"

At this moment, he saw Lu Anan's face turned to the surveillance camera, as if looking at him across the camera. The man's breathing tightened. He understood Lu Anan's lip language, and his tense body relaxed. He smiled with an ambiguous meaning and whispered softly: "I am also looking forward to our meeting again."

Then a teacup flew into the camera, and the surveillance camera went dark in an instant.

The man's lips curled up into a faint smile, and he put the tablet in his hand on the table, tapping his knees with his fingers, feeling happy.

The subordinates standing by had some doubts in their hearts, but they did not dare to interrupt the tranquility rashly.

After a long while, he finally couldn't help but speak: "Master, if we don't save Zhou Fang, what should we do next?"

The man closed his eyes and said slowly: "Zhou Fang is already a useless chess piece. Now that he has been caught, there is no need to care about him anymore."

Hearing this, the subordinate seemed to realize something and remembered something, so he reported, "Master, Lu Yanhua just came here for help, saying that Lu Rongyu and Lu Yixuan were locked up in the police station."

The man was a little curious: "What did they do?"

"Lu Yanhua said that it was Lu Anan who framed them." The subordinate answered meticulously.

The man couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, his voice was filled with disdain and mockery: "The old woman is really stupid, no wonder she found out about the two of them just after she got home."

After saying that, he slowly stood up, gently adjusted the wrinkles on his collar, and walked out, his movements showing his calmness, "Go find someone to fish them out, and then send them back to the Lu family to add to my variables."

"Oh, right."

When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and glanced at the quiet and elegant teahouse. He said nonchalantly, "Let's burn this teahouse down. Just think of it as a gift to an old friend."

*

This is Zhou Fang’s residence.

Seeing that Zhou Fang was hesitant and unable to say anything, and after confirming that Lu Anan had nothing to do with the matter, Officer Chen took Zhou Fang back to the police station.

As Zhou Fang left, Lu Anan and his group slowly walked out of the mansion gate, said goodbye to others, and returned to the Lu family.

As soon as he stepped over the threshold, Lu Wenjing's cell phone rang at the right time, and the three words "Lu Xunran" jumped on the screen. He had a bad feeling in his heart, and he quickly picked up the phone. Lu Xunran's low and serious voice came from the other end.

"Brother, have you seen the news? Something happened."

Lu Wenjing frowned slightly. He immediately turned around and picked up the remote control. The TV screen lit up instantly. The news channel was playing the latest current events. He stared at the screen and asked in a deep voice, "I just got home and was watching it. What's going on?"

Lu Xunran said in a serious tone: "Brother, Yue Man Lou was burned down."

Lu Wenjing's expression suddenly turned gloomy. At the same time, a news report on the TV screen pierced the silence in the room like ice.

"A fire broke out in Yuncheng, and the Yue Man Lou Teahouse was unfortunately destroyed. The fire was raging, but fortunately no one was in the store at the time of the incident, so no casualties were caused."

The host's voice was calm and heavy, but every word was like a hammer, striking everyone's heart.

The picture slowly progresses, and the outline of the teahouse gradually becomes blurred in the raging fire, but the signboard that was illuminated red by the fire - "Moon House" - is clearly visible to everyone.

Lu Anan immediately thought of the second message that appeared on Zhou Fang's phone. Her heart sank suddenly. There was no expression on her face, only her eyes were as deep as a pool. "He did this. He knew we found out about Yue Man Lou."

When Lu Mingqian heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he asked in astonishment: "So the gift he mentioned was burning down the teahouse?"

Lu Anan nodded slightly, with an indescribable heaviness in her tone: "I didn't expect him to be so cruel. He burned down a building just because of a suspicion."

Lu Wenjing pondered for a moment, his eyes lingering on Lu Anan's thoughtful face, and asked softly: "Anan, before you went home, did you have any impression of this person?"

Hearing this, Lu Anan began to recall the original plot carefully.

[In the original novel, everything after the original protagonist was three years old is blank. The novel is written from the perspective of the heroine Lu Rongyu from the beginning.]

[From the heroine's perspective, the first time she saw the original owner was at the Lu family's old house, and from then until the original owner's tragic death, the original novel did not mention anything about the original owner's disappearance until she returned to the Lu family again until the finale.]

[So I really have no idea whether the original owner had met this master before returning to the Lu family, but I feel that he probably hadn't.]

And what confused her now was that she had no idea whether the text message was referring to the original owner or her.

What made her even more uneasy was that she inexplicably felt that the sudden text message was sent to her, not the original owner. But why did she have such a feeling?

Lu Anan just felt a headache. She rubbed her forehead and replied, "Probably not. I don't remember meeting any strange people."

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly became solemn.

While everyone was thinking, Lu Anan began to sort out every fragment from the original world, from familiar faces to every detail of the past, examining everything without omission.

But she went through all the people she knew and all the things she had experienced in her mind, and she couldn't think of anyone who had such a big grudge against her.

Unable to figure it out, Lu Anan simply called customer service.

【7758, I have something to ask you.】

【Customer Service: OK, dear, how can I help you? 】

[First, take a look at my memories in my sea of ​​consciousness, just look at the two text messages I received after Zhou Fang was captured.]

The customer service checked his memory and was also surprised when he saw the two text messages.

【Who sent this message? 】

Lu Anan was speechless.

[Am I asking you or are you asking me? How would I know who sent this message? If I knew, why would I ask you? ]

After hearing this, the customer service was silent for a moment before speaking.

[Dear, based on my many years of experience in reading novels, this message may be sent to you instead of the original owner. Is your enemy chasing after you? ]

Lu Anan rolled her eyes.

[Dear~ I came here because you extracted my soul. Can't you find out if I have any enemies chasing after me? ]

The customer service's voice sounded again, this time with a little more awkwardness.

[Dear, we can only check what happened to you in this world. Everything about you in your original world is private to us and we have no right to view it.]

Lu Anan was furious.

[Fuck you! I said 7758, you don't know anything about anything, and you don't answer anything you know. How did you get to be a customer service representative?]

The customer service felt a little aggrieved.

[Dear, I am just a customer service representative of the mall. The problems I solve should be the problems you encounter when using the mall and some emergencies you may encounter when repairing the plot line. I am not an omniscient system, so it is normal that I don’t know these. ]

After hearing what the customer service said, Lu Anan couldn't help but feel powerless. She thought she had opened a cheat code, but it turned out that this thing did nothing except make her suffer a little bit and give her some props that sometimes worked and sometimes didn't.

What do you call this? A tall building rises from the ground, but you can only rely on yourself to achieve glory?

Lu Anan reluctantly waved away the customer service, propped up her chin and began to empty her mind.

So what is my identity?
