Mingmei led the four people back to the treehouse, to the same terrace as before, this time with the addition of Lu Gui.

Last night, Lu Xiaoyao and the others were completely confused by the fight. Later, because Lu Xiaoyao handed them a "weapon," they were all taken away.

Because Lu Gui had been arrested, taken away for questioning, and then locked up together, he had remained silent, and they hadn't been able to find out anything. Now that they had all been released, everyone finally had the opportunity to sit down and review what had happened yesterday.

"Speaking of Zhen Hu, I haven't seen him since I came in. What happened to him? Why were you all assassinated last night?"

As soon as Lu Xiaoyao sat down, she began to ask questions impatiently. Dong Lei and Sun Yunzhong were not students of the Central Military Academy, so they naturally did not know Zhen Hu, nor did they have any connection with Lu Gui. Therefore, they were not in a hurry to speak about this matter, which made Lu Xiaoyao even more impatient.

Looking at his younger sister's impatient expression, Lu Gui recalled the scene last night when he asked Mingmei and Lu Xiaoyao if they had made any progress recently, and the other party suddenly fell silent. Lu Gui instantly understood.

If it were him, he would feel embarrassed too.

"I wasn't assassinated."

Lu Gui first emphasized that he was not the target of the assassination attempt last night, then looked at Mu Chen who was pouring tea and drinking water opposite him, and said, "Does your employer have people in the police station? I stopped them this time, and I lost my job directly."

"Oh? It's good that you weren't silenced."

"Really? You didn't die, so I won't either."

The two chatted back and forth, with Sun Yunzhong's gaze shifting back and forth between them. Then, as if he had discovered something, he lowered his head and continued to ponder.

Mingmei watched Sun Yunzhong's independent thinking, and then looked at the bewildered expressions of the other two burly men, who seemed to be lost in thought. She couldn't help but pick up her tea and drown her soft sigh in the water.

Forget it, one smart one out of the three is enough.

"It seems that person doesn't really want to expose themselves and doesn't want to make a big deal out of it." Mu Chen thought for a moment, then looked at the commotion from last night and couldn't help but smile. "But it probably still made a big deal out of it."

"yes."

Lu Gui sighed. He had spent half the night fighting those assassins, but Zhen Hu was still successfully assassinated. He was so angry that he chased the assassins for two blocks. The news might have already spread.

After a long pause, Lu Gui couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that Zhen Hu logged off last night without saying anything. What about you? Do you have any clues?"

"No."

Mu Chen answered decisively, but Lu Gui curled his lip.

This person never tells the truth.

He then turned to Mingmei, who was sitting next to Mu Chen, and continued to ask persistently, "Meimei, do you know?"

"ah?"

Mingmei was drinking tea and lost in thought when she heard Lu Gui call her name. She silently looked up and gazed at him innocently.

Bright and beautiful: OvO

Lu Gui: "..."

"What are you talking about? Who is it? What's their employer? What's their backing? Can't we all just be frank and speak openly?"

Lu Xiaoyao finally couldn't hold back any longer. After listening for a long time, she wondered what everyone was talking about.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she received a glare of disappointment from her older brother, who said, "Look at your classmate, he can even use his brain. All you can do after listening for so long is ask me questions?"

"Why do I have to use my brain to guess when you can just say it? Do I have a lot of brain cells? Can't you stop wasting them like this?!"

Sun Yunzhong, the extravagant and wasteful man: "..."

Lu Gui was truly speechless with anger at Lu Xiaoyao. You might say she wasn't clever, but she was better at making excuses for herself than anyone else.

"Well, to put it simply, the person I killed in the underground boxing match last night had powerful backers, and I suspected that his death was not normal, so I investigated."

Seeing the veins bulging on Lu Gui's forehead, Mu Chen decided to take pity on him and stop the "family martial arts drama" from happening.

"Is it the one who died in the third scene last night?"

Sun Yunzhong was quite perceptive and directly said it was the third one, and the first one, the lizardman, was sent out by him.

Mu Chen and Ming Mei looked at each other at the same time, which could be considered a tacit acknowledgment.

"That boxer, I saw quite a few fans in the audience..."

Dong Lei also remembered that in the last match, because Mu Chen suddenly killed the other party, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely strange, and many people cursed Mu Chen when they realized what was happening.

"So, boss, someone hired you to kill the people in the third round?"

Lu Xiaoyao finally realized why Mu Chen had been so brutal last night. Mu Chen didn't say anything, just continued drinking water. His silence was a clear indication of his tacit agreement.

Lu Gui snorted coldly at him: "Yes, no one hired you, so you just went berserk in the boxing ring, huh?"

When Lu Gui directly pointed out that Mu Chen was unwilling to admit it, the others blinked as if they understood, and Sun Yunzhong took the initiative to change the subject, asking, "So, you were attacked last night because that dead classmate was also involved in this?"

"Yes, because the police station suspected it was a case of hiring someone to commit murder, and Zhen Hu was the one suspected of hiring someone. However, in the end, they were all released due to insufficient evidence."

After Lu Gui finished speaking, everyone had a pretty good idea of ​​what had happened.

"So... someone else saw them escape, and that's why they secretly tried to silence them again?"

Mingmei subtly nudged Mu Chen with her elbow to signal her nephew's alertness. Mu Chen lowered his head and nodded with a smile to Mingmei, indicating that he was also pleased with Sun Yunzhong's reaction.
