Chapter 211 A New Head

Hospital pharmacy.

The nurse on duty yawned, lazily turned off the light, and closed the door.

The moment the door closed, a slender black figure leaped in through the window, knelt on one knee, and remained silent.

Mei Nan knelt on the ground, clutching her lower back and abdomen, her face pale with pain, her hair already soaked with cold sweat.

Blood was flowing down the wound.

She gritted her teeth and paused for a moment, then got up and quickly circled the pharmacy. She took off her clothes, re-bandaged her wound, gave herself a painkiller injection, and neatly packed up the necessary medications.

These medicines should last her until she reaches Lanhe.

—

The living room of the villa.

The group was still studying the relationship between Mei Nan and Lan He.

Nan Song looked at Yu Yan and Shao Muyan, "Did Song Cheng tell you about Dongzhen?"

Shao Muyan and Yu Yan nodded.

"The demon leader who ruled East Town, named Sean, has already been killed by us."

Nan Song spoke these words casually, but in order to eliminate Sean, they paid a heavy price and almost did not return alive. Mei Nan's father, Mei Die, was clearly Sean Number Two.

“I don’t know these people well, but the equipment they use and their way of doing things are exactly the same as Sean’s.”

Nan Song sneered, "I think this 'Father Mei' is probably Sean's old subordinate, but he betrayed Sean."

“If that’s the case,” Yu Jinwen pondered for a moment, “these people left Sean to start their own business, focusing on chips, probably because they want to learn from Sean and develop robots for their own use. But isn’t the Blue River the canal between Lin and Meng?”

"yes."

Shao Muwen spoke in a deep voice, "Years ago, Lin Kingdom and Meng Kingdom conducted cross-border trade through the Blue River and established friendly neighborly relations. However, due to conflicts of interest, the bridge that was originally to be built was blown up by the workers, and now goods can only be transported by ship. Some people smelled the business opportunity and began to monopolize ship transportation. After several fierce battles, a company called 'Blue River' was established."

Although it's called a company, all it does is commit murder and robbery, resulting in countless massacres.

Even the surrounding borders have become their base for committing numerous atrocities.

Undoubtedly, it is another Dongzhen.

Yu Yan suddenly remembered something and turned to ask Shao Muyan, "Do you remember what Dean Xia said about Aunt Mei's background?"

"Um."

At the time, Shao Muyan was eager to investigate Shao Yun's background and remembered every word Dean Xia said.

"Director Xia said that Aunt Mei was abandoned by her parents at the orphanage after she could remember things. After she grew up, her parents came looking for her again, saying that they had found her a marriage in their hometown and wanted her to come home and get married. Aunt Mei couldn't refuse, so she went back to the mountains. When she returned to Shangzhou, she was already six months pregnant and brought her husband back with her. The child in her belly at that time was Mei Nan."

Yu Yan's mind went blank for a moment, her expression changed slightly, and she said to Nan Song, "President Nan, can you find any old photos of Mei Nan?"

"I mean, what she looked like before her plastic surgery."

Nan Song nodded: "I'll give it a try."

She acted quickly and did find it, but there were very few photos of Mei Nan from her childhood.

Although Yu Yan and Mei Nan were classmates in college, they didn't interact much during college. Moreover, Mei Nan had already started learning makeup at that time, and she looked different every time Yu Yan saw her. She didn't leave a fixed impression on Yu Yan, as she was always changing.

"This one."

Yu Yan pointed to one of the photos and asked Nan Song to crop the photos of Mei Nan, Mei's father, and Shouhou together.

"Ah..." Yu Yan and Nan Song exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone crowded around to see what was going on, and they all understood what had happened.

Without comparison, you wouldn't realize it, but when the three photos are placed together, they look just like a family portrait.

When Mei Nan was a child, her eyebrows and facial features were exactly the same as those of Shouhou and Mei's father.

Shao Muyan patted Yu Yan's shoulder, understanding the tremor in her heart.

Xiang Chu... was the same.

It was only by neutralizing some of the genes from Xiang Jingheng that his sharp eyebrows and eyes became much softer.

Yu Yan used to think that Xiang Jingheng looked fierce and that Xiang Chu looked like his father, but now she realized that compared to the Mei family, Xiang Jingheng could be considered docile.

"Oh my god."

Ji Yun compared Mei Nan's current appearance with her previous one, her eyes widening like a rabbit's. "Mei Nan's plastic surgery is amazing, it's like she's had a completely different head."

"Perhaps she is fighting against her own genes."

Everyone turned around, and lawyer Cheng Xian, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up.

Unlike the others who took off their coats as soon as they entered, Cheng Xian was always dressed in a suit and tie, looking dapper and cool, exuding the aura of a big boss in every gesture.

"To be fair, Mei Nan wasn't ugly before. The plastic surgery process was extremely painful. She kept having surgery on her face, and she was very ruthless, which shows that she hated her appearance. And she looks very much like her father."

"That makes sense."

Ji Yun, acting like a straight man, wholeheartedly agreed with her husband's statement, "So is it possible that Mei Nan's mother, Aunt Mei, was sold to Father Mei by her heartless parents? The mountains that Dean Xia mentioned are very likely the border region. As for Mei Nan's half-dead adoptive father, he was either sent by Father Mei to monitor Aunt Mei, or he was a backer that Mei Nan found for herself... No, according to what Dean Xia said, he beats people at the drop of a hat, so the possibility of him monitoring people is more likely."

After saying that, he nudged Cheng Xian lightly with his elbow, "Am I right?"

Cheng Xian smiled and pinched his arm, then put on a serious face in front of everyone.

"Judging from the timeline, Aunt Mei started working as a maid at the Xiang family after she returned to Shangzhou while pregnant. It is very likely that Aunt Mei was a pawn that Uncle Mei planted in the Xiang family, after all, Xiang's Technology represented the leading enterprise in the field of high-tech in China at that time."

Cheng Xian's expression was deep and thoughtful. "There are more than just Aunt Mei and Mei Nan as pawns."

Everyone who heard this felt their hearts sink.

Yu Yan lowered her eyes, feeling a tightness in her chest.

If that's the case, the situation is even more serious than they thought.

What exactly is Mei Nan's attitude towards her father? Did she take the initiative to slip him a note and confess the truth to them in an attempt to defect?

The phone vibrated, and Shao Muyan answered it, his expression changing slightly.

Meeting the gazes of the crowd, Shao Muyan glanced around briefly before fixing his gaze on Yu Yan's face, and said, "We received news from the hospital that Mei Nan has gone missing."

Yu Yan was taken aback.

With so many people watching, how could Mei Nan still manage to run away?

Wasn't Xiang Jingheng right there too?

What does he do for a living?

Yu Yan's phone immediately vibrated; it was a call from the school security office.

"Professor Yu, the experimental center has been illegally accessed!"

—

Yu Yan, Shao Muyan, and others rushed to the school. The school police and security personnel arrived and surrounded the experimental center.

"What's the situation now? Have they caught the person?"

Shao Muyan stepped forward to inquire.

Yu Yan looked at the damaged equipment and the messy laboratory, her hands clenched tightly at her sides.

The same old trick is used again, and the lingering ghost will not disappear.

This is absolutely unbearable!
