The King of Black Fog

"The situation is turning grim," one said.

"Hasn't it always been like this?" came the reply.

...

Eagles soar through the sky, fish dart in the shallow waters,...

Chapter Fifty-Eight: Tracing the Origins

"Aren't they the same?" Li Qianxia glanced at it.

"Hair." Yang Qinglan immediately noticed something was wrong.

"As expected of Miss Yang," Li Changzhou said, clapping.

The hair in one photo hasn't been washed for three or four days, and in another it hasn't been washed for five or six days (or maybe longer).

This isn't actually the most crucial point. A series of unexpected events can also lead to this situation. For example, if someone hasn't showered for a week, takes a photo on Wednesday, and then takes another photo on Saturday, then there will indeed be two extremely similar photos.

However, when the relatives (or perhaps friends) made the missing person notice, they mixed up the two photos.

The most odd thing is that the poses are the same, the eyes are the same, the angles are the same, and there's that deliberate effort to take the same photo.

Even so, we can't guarantee that this person is a player, but it doesn't matter. If not, searching for missing persons is not a waste of time.

"Hair?" Li Qianxia bent down and looked closely.

"Idiot!" Li Changzhou tapped her on the head.

"What?!" Li Qianxia scratched her head and angrily questioned him.

"Chest."

Li Qianxia glanced down, then chuckled and said, "Were you shocked?"

"Are you stupid?" Li Changzhou had nothing to say to her.

"You insulted me? Twice! Qinglan, he insulted me!"

"Brother and sister, you should also be careful. This time, I support your brother."

"What?!" Li Qianxia was annoyed. "Can't you guys be a little more innocent? So what if your brother accidentally saw a bit of your chest? What's the big deal?"

She genuinely didn't understand and didn't take it seriously. How could siblings have such lewd thoughts?

impossible.

Since there's no such thing, what's the big deal if you were accidentally seen naked once (it's bound to happen a few times when you've been together for so long)?

Li Changzhou naturally had no lewd thoughts.

He was just worried that passersby in the rest area would see his sister's chest (absolutely not allowed!), and he wanted to correct her habit so that she wouldn't be accidentally seen by others in other places (absolutely not allowed!). It was all out of a brother's love for his sister.

However, he was too lazy to explain, just like Li Qianxia, ​​both of them were pure at heart.

Among those present, only Yang Qinglan, an only child, harbored lewd thoughts.

"How do we find her? Without Zheng Qing, do we think we can manage?" Li Qianxia asked doubtfully.

"Let's find the person who handed out the flyers first." Yang Qinglan rested her chin on her hand and pondered, "Let's trace back step by step. If we really can't find them, then we can look for Zheng Qing."

“Great minds think alike.” Li Changzhou smiled as he rolled up the two missing person posters.

The three of them immediately left the mall and went to the snack street where the two female college students bought their dinner.

As he passed a print shop, Li Changzhou went inside.

"What are you doing?" Yang Qinglan asked.

"Printing business cards can save trouble if you have a special identity. Making fake documents is illegal, but making fake business cards is not."

There are five computers in the printing room, and two of them are in use.

The three of them found a chair in the corner, and Li Changzhou pulled out a chair for Li Qianxia to sit down.

"What kind of print?" She skillfully opened the software.

“Lawyers are not easily exposed,” Li Changzhou said.

What about the photos?

"Shot live."

“Business cards usually don’t have photos,” Yang Qinglan said quietly.

These two people clearly hadn't even touched the business card.

Reminded by Yang Qinglan, Li Qianxia broke free from her habitual thinking of always listening to Li Changzhou and skillfully found a firm to copy their information.

“Use the ‘Minghu Law Firm’ in the Mingcheng Technology Building. They’re all in the hospital right now, so there’s no way to verify anything,” Li Changzhou reminded him.

"What kind of usage is this? Does 'dead men tell no tales' mean this?"

"The meaning is clear. Use the real phone number, mine, someone might contact you."

Li Qianxia's hands moved incredibly fast; her long, beautiful hands tapped rapidly on the keyboard.

A business card is synthesized at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Yang Qinglan exclaimed after witnessing all of this.

"I did all the PowerPoint presentations for my group project with my brother, and I even won a campus PowerPoint award. I was supposed to become an excellent PowerPoint presenter at my brother's law firm, drinking milk tea, eating chicken feet, lotus root slices, and potato slices every day, and watching TV dramas."

"A future I've seriously considered."

"Qinglan, you understand me best! That guy Li Changzhou always says I'm dreaming!"

"Because you mentioned chicken feet, lotus root slices, and potato slices. Most people would just say it casually and wouldn't mention three different things."

"Is that so? Okay."

In just a few words, the business cards were ready.

Front: Firm name, mobile phone number, telephone number, website, email, office address, name, and seal (the photo quality is quite good).

The reverse side features a world map, the firm's logo, and the names of the cities where branch offices are located.

"Auntie, print it!" Li Qianxia called out to the store manager in a cheerful and sweet voice.

This is the voice used for deception, similar to the voice Li Changzhou used when he first spoke to Yang Qinglan, and also the voice that all boys subconsciously use when they first call a girl.

The aunt came over, and Li Qianxia made way for her.

"Are you lawyers?" the aunt asked.

“No, I’m a law student. The school is having a mock trial event recently, and the teacher asked us to play the roles of lawyers. To make it more realistic, that’s why I’m printing out business cards,” Li Changzhou replied.

"Oh, okay, young man, may I ask you a question?"

"Well... okay, but we're in a hurry."

"Thank you, thank you. It'll be quick. Just one question. By the way, is it free?"
