Chapter 19

"He heard it just now." Xu Shishi crossed his hands behind his back, his warm voice was like still tea, fresh and elegant but full of charm.Yan Xun glanced at the door and said in a low voice, "Yes. But young master, it's really..."

"Do you know why Gu Wei died?" Xu Shishi didn't answer Yan Xun's question, but asked an out-of-bounds question, Yan Xun shook his head in confusion.Xu Shishi turned around and looked at Yan Xun, and said calmly, "Because Zhan Zhan doesn't have enough strength to protect him."

"Do you think he can survive? No, even if I didn't kill him back then, he would have been killed by the Yan family. Rather than letting him be blackened by a ball of ink, it is better to let him sleep in the past." Xu Shishi paused, "Zhan Zhan will understand."

"But young master, even if this is the case, this round may not necessarily succeed."

"What he lacks now is tempering, to smooth out all his sharp corners. It is not a good thing to be too sharp. Hiding murderous intentions is what is most needed in this game."

"Yan Xun, why don't we make a bet to see if Zhan Zhan will protect Zheng Ming?" Xu Shishi smiled and chuckled, and his emotions became a lot higher, "He will choose, he will know, choose What's best for him."

Yan Xun looked at the confident Xu Shi, and finally nodded.He always believed in the decision made by Xu Shishi, no matter who it was, he could not escape the trap he set up.He thought, if Jian Zhan was still there at this time, he didn't know what he would think when he heard that the person he loved the most died at the hands of his brother.

Probably, it will be even more chilling...

Jian Zhan really felt chilled.He thought too much along the way, but he never thought that Xu Shishi had done so many things for himself.If he hadn't gone to find Zheng Ming back then, perhaps the current situation would not have happened.

Thinking of this, Jian Zhan's footsteps stopped, he looked at the people coming and going around, and a scary but reasonable thought slowly surfaced.The noise changed from far away to nearer to his ears, and then swayed in front of him again, leaving slowly.The thoughts in my mind are like ink paintings outlined by a brush.Since Xu Shishi wanted to use Zheng Ming, why didn't he use it himself?

Zheng Ming has feelings for him, he is sure that Zheng Ming still likes him until now, Xu Shishi will definitely need his help if he wants to win Zheng Ming over.And if he really wants to gain Zheng Ming's power, he must have a certain relationship with Zheng Ming.But this relationship may be difficult for Xu time.

But he is different, he only needs to use Zheng Ming's feelings, and he can easily get the power he wants.At that time, he can be with Zheng Ming and not be at the mercy of anyone.What a great opportunity!

Jian Zhan's eyes slowly glowed, and he went around in circles twice, feeling more and more that this was a very good method.The only problem is that he just rejected Zheng Ming yesterday, and if he goes to meet him now, Zheng Ming will definitely become suspicious, and the gain will outweigh the loss.

But if Zheng Ming were to come to him, the effect would be reduced... Jian Zhan walked forward a little restlessly, and at this moment, a pet shop appeared in front of Jian Zhan.

Jian Zhan glanced at the pet store and had an idea.

The business of the pet store is not very good, but as soon as he walked in, Jian Zhan felt the breath of life.Many small animals nestled in their cages, and when they saw someone coming in, they barked over there.The little girl who was looking after the store was holding a husky in her arms. When she heard the wind chime at the door, she immediately said welcome in a sweet voice.

Jian Zhan looked around, and soon saw a cat.It was a pale yellow cat with its white belly spread out there. The winter sun was not too fierce but it was warm enough. It was lying in its nest, basking in the sun with its belly spread out.Occasionally, he stretched out his paws to scratch his belly, very lazy.

"That cat." Jian Zhan pointed to the cat and smiled at the little girl, "Can you show me?"

"Oh, good." The little girl had never seen a man as delicate as Jian Zhan, and she was a little dazed for a while, until Jian Zhan said the second sentence before she came back to her senses with a blushing face, and hurried over to take the cage down.The cat seemed very dissatisfied that someone disturbed it to bask in the sun. It opened its eyes and called "meow meow" to Jian Zhan.

"That's all." Jian Zhan handed the card to the little girl, and then let the cat out of the cage.The cat seemed not to be afraid of life, and walked around Jian Zhan twice, then sat down on the ground with a "click", curled its tail and lay down again.Jian Zhan squatted down and touched its fur. The touch between his fingers was extremely soft. He directly stretched out his hand and hugged the cat in his arms. After weighing it, he found that it was quite heavy. It looked like a fat cat.

The little girl had already swiped her card, she walked up to Jian Zhan and said, "Do you need to buy some food?"

"Well, buy me something that suits it."

So when Jian Zhan went out, he was holding a big bag full in his left hand, and there was a fat cat enjoying himself in his arms.Jian Zhan rubbed his face against the cat's fur in satisfaction, but his brows and eyes were full of loneliness.

Zheng Ming, don't blame me. If I don't fight for it myself, I'll just be dragged away. I'm not the kind of person who can be manipulated by others. Now that I have the opportunity, if I don't fight for it, I will be too sorry for myself.

After finishing coaxing Zheng Ming with gifts, Jian Zhan went to another place.It was a relatively small office, located in a criss-crossed alley, and it was extremely difficult to find.Above the office hangs a simple five words - universal office.Although this is a small and poorly decorated place, Jian Zhan knows that the information here is the most accurate and proficient.

Walking into the gate of the office, you can see that the ground is full of newspapers, and the wind blows all of them stuck to the wall. A little girl came out with a calculator, and when she saw a customer, she immediately yelled, "Someone is here!" Already!"

Jian Zhan calmly looked at the people who poked their heads out one by one, and said in a slightly cold voice, "I need you to do something."

"How can I help you?"

"Help me check a person's news, and can you find out what happened three years ago?"

"Three years? Although it's a bit long, it's still possible. Believe in our ability."

"Money is not a problem, you just need to help me find things, and if you have money, you can add more."

The little girl froze there holding the calculator. She swallowed, and said in a tone that was almost crying, "It's great, I don't have to eat instant noodles at last! Tell me, whose information are you looking for!"

"Zheng Ming."

"Zheng Ming?!" The little girl was taken aback, and the boss who came out was also taken aback. He looked at Jian Zhan's puzzled expression and explained, "It's like this. Someone came to ask this person three months ago The information, that person is also very generous."

"Three months, are you sure you remember correctly?" Jian Zhan's eyes froze, how could it be three months ago!

"It was indeed three months ago, and we still have the account." The man immediately took out the account, pointed to a request on it, and said, "Look, I remember the time very clearly, it was three months ago, and we received this news three months ago." I'll call him in the next day."

Jian Zhan's fingers trembled, and he looked at the account without blinking. After a long time, his voice became sullen, "I see, you can check it for me again, I want more accurate information , In addition, help me investigate a shooting case three years ago, the name of the deceased is Gu Wei."

"Gun, gun murder?" The boss was a little surprised, "This..."

"I know you have channels to get this news, and it's not difficult for you." Jian Zhan's eyes and voice were quite cold, his cold eyes were like deep pools, and he would freeze if he looked at them, "Money is not question."

"Okay, we'll try our best to find it out for you." The boss sighed, "We'll talk about the price when you're satisfied."

Jian Zhan nodded and left his contact information.The cat in his arms was stretched by him, and then fell asleep in another position. Jian Zhan glanced at those people, and said, "No matter who it is, don't reveal it. If someone comes You are not allowed to mention it.”

"No problem." The boss nodded, watching the cold and delicate man go out, he patted his chest in fear, "Why are one or two so scary?"

"I always think that person looks familiar." The little girl touched her chin, "It's really familiar, but I just can't remember who this person is."

"Don't care who it is, find out the news first."

…………

Three months ago, three days later.Jian Zhan didn't expect that he could get this news just to inquire about it.According to what they said, three months ago, that is, just after he left City X, Xu Shishi sent someone to check on Zheng Ming's background. If nothing else, that person should be Yan Xun.Since I went to investigate three months ago and got the news three days later, why did I mention it now?

Looking at the darkened sky, Jian Zhan always felt that he had a clue about something but he couldn't grasp it. There must be something important that he didn't know about.At first, he thought that these three months were just a plan of Xu Shishi and the Yan family's plan, but now it seems that it is not that simple.Perhaps in the past three months, Xu Shi has made some preparations...

It seemed that he had to act. Only by seizing the opportunity first could he be qualified to compete with Xu Shishi and the others.Thinking of Jian Zhan, he put the cat on the ground and called Zheng Ming.

After the phone rang two or three times, it was picked up. Both of them were on the phone, but no one spoke.Jian Zhan looked at the sleeping cat lying on his shoe, and asked softly, "Are you free now?"

"Didn't you say you won't meet?" Zheng Ming's voice was low, but there was a hint of sarcasm. Jian Zhan clenched his phone tightly and said impatiently, "I'm in Yinyue Square, come if you like!"

After speaking, he hung up the phone, found a seat and sat down.The fountain in the center of the square was constantly spraying, and Jian Zhan looked at the screen of his phone with a smile on his lips.He bet that Zheng Ming would definitely come.

Sure enough, 10 minutes later, a tall figure appeared in front of Jian Zhan.
