Siheyuan: My name is Cao Xing, and I have a strong background

Liu Zhi was very surprised. In his impression, Cao Xing was a speculator. Although he was not at the bottom of society, he had nothing to do with those big shots.

"How did you get in? I remembered I locked the door."

Although Cao Xing had a good relationship with him, it was obviously not normal for Cao Xing to appear here in this special period.

Cao Xing still had that smile on his face, and that smile seemed to have magical power that made people want to get close to him.

This is the delicate use of his mental power.

Being able to actively convey a certain emotion to others can be considered a little trick.

"Accountant Liu, I can open 90% of the door locks in Sijiu City. It won't be difficult to get in."

This sounded a bit pretentious, but to Liu Zhi it added some mystery to Cao Xing.

Liu Zhi was now very curious about Cao Xing's purpose and couldn't help asking.

"It seems that I underestimated Comrade Cao before. Can you tell me the purpose of your visit? You are not here to drink so early in the morning, are you? And I don't think I have told you my home address."

Cao Xing walked to the chair slowly and sat down, speaking leisurely.

"Accountant Liu, we are old acquaintances. We have known each other for several years. Why don't you offer me a drink when I come to your house?"

Liu Zhi frowned and seemed very impatient.

"I'm sorry, I don't have hot water at home, but I do have cold water. If you want some, I can get it for you."

"Haha, I have plenty of time. There's no rush. Just boil some water."

Cao Xing's performance was so different from Liu Zhi's, that he was unable to come to his senses for a while.

"What do you mean? Do I have to entertain you if you come uninvited?"

He had no intention of talking to Cao Xing right now; his whole heart was not here.

Cao Xing was not angry when he heard this. He just looked around and then spoke.

"I understand. Accountant Liu is worried about your two sisters. It's true that a brother and sister depend on each other for survival. It's really worrying that they suddenly lose contact."

His words carried a strong sense of oppression, which made Liu Zhiteng stand up immediately.

"Who are you?"

"Me? Just a small-time profiteer."

Liu Zhi curled his lips in disdain and said, "A small character is not worthy of knowing this matter. Are you Director Jin's man or Minister Qin's man?"

Cao Xing spread his hands and said innocently, "They? They are not qualified to lead me."

"If you don't tell me, please get out. You are not welcome in my house."

"Haha, Accountant Liu, are you sure you want to kick out a person who can help you?"

"My dear? Can you help me?"

Liu Zhi was obviously stunned. He had no way out now, and he would hold on to even a glimmer of hope.

"You said you could help me? Do you know the situation I'm facing now?"

Cao Xing shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I can definitely help you."

Liu Zhi sneered when he heard this, obviously thinking Cao Xing was a liar.

"You don't even know what difficulties I'm facing, how dare you say you can help me."

Cao Xing's expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "It's up to me to rescue the people imprisoned by Jin Biao."

"What did you say? You rescued someone? That's impossible!"

Cao Xing said firmly: "I just fought with him last night and rescued someone. Believe it or not, if you still want me to leave, then I don't care."

Liu Zhi was very surprised to hear this. He had no way of judging whether Cao Xing's words were true or not.

"Since you were able to find out where Jin Biao was holding people, and you were able to rescue them, it must not be difficult for you to take Jin Biao's life. Why didn't you do it?"

Although he is mentally confused now, he can still think of the most critical issues.

Cao Xing smiled bitterly and told the truth: "It's not that I don't want to, but I can't. He is indeed in a place where people are detained, but I can't use my fists in that place. I have to put the overall situation first."

"The overall situation is more important. Humph, it's still because I can't kill Jin Biao. Cao Xing, I don't know how you were able to find my home, but I don't have time to deal with you now. Please do as you please."

When Cao Xing heard him say this, he no longer insisted.

"Well, since you don't need my help, goodbye. No, that's not right. Given your current condition, it's still unclear whether you can see me again."

After he finished speaking, he ignored Liu Zhi who was hesitant to speak and simply stood up and walked out without saying any more nonsense.

There was no need for Cao Xing to explain too much to Liu Zhi. It didn't matter whether he believed it or not. He just wanted to drag him out of the quagmire because of their previous friendship. But now it seemed that Liu Zhi was obviously not grateful.

Since the victims don't need you, you still shamelessly cling to them. What a shame.

As for this visit to Liu Zhi, it was not completely fruitless.

His spiritual perception has discovered a document hidden under the cupboard by Liu Zhi.

The document contains the message that Jin Biao left for Liu Zhi, which is obviously extremely important.

Because Jin Biao used an encrypted method that required a code book, he only needed to observe Liu Zhi's actions in the dark.

As for what happened to Liu Zhi, Cao Xing didn't need to worry about it.

Seeing Cao Xing walk out directly, Liu Zhi's heart skipped a beat, as if he had missed something important.

This feeling became heavier and heavier in his heart, almost making it difficult for him to breathe.

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he stood up, quickly opened the door and walked out, but there was no sign of Cao Xing outside.

"Why are you walking so fast?"

He rushed out almost the moment Cao Xing closed the door, but there was no trace of Cao Xing around, and there was not even a footprint on the ground.

The early morning sun shone on his body, but it couldn't drive away the coldness in him.

"Did I see a ghost in broad daylight?"

Liu Zhi shuddered all over and hurried back into the room.

Looking at the footprints on the floor inside the house, the traces of Cao Lai's presence were very obvious, and his brows were furrowed.

He suddenly remembered a rumor.

In the Ministry of Industry, the most powerful person is Minister Zheng Guotao.

In front of Zheng Guotao, Qin Gui was no different from a grandson.

Rumor has it that Cao Xing and Zheng Guotao have a very close relationship, just like father and son.

Liu Zhi in the room seemed to understand what he had missed.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel extremely regretful for his disrespectful behavior towards Cao Xing just now.

I have nothing to lose now, so what's the harm if I trust someone even if he is a liar?

He was stunned for a long time, until the roosters crowed, and then he came to his senses.

Since it cannot be reversed, we can only take it one step at a time.

Looking at the hairpin still in his hand, Liu Zhi took out the information he had obtained that night, found the code book and began to translate.

Little did he know that three groups of people had come to the outside of his slum to monitor him, and Cao Xing was one of them.
