Suddenly, Xiao Fang felt something strange behind him. Out of professional alertness, he quickly turned around and looked back. Behind him was the front of the old house, but he couldn't see anything.
However, Xiao Fang did not dare to relax and quickly rushed in to search everywhere.
Qingyun noticed that something was wrong with Xiao Fang, so she stopped what she was doing and followed behind him.
The two searched the entire old house but found nothing, so they had to return to the courtyard. Xia Quan'an had been beaten to the point of near death and was lying on the ground groaning.
Qingyun: "What's going on? What did you see?"
Xiao Fang hesitated, then turned and looked at the old house again.
"I don't know why, but I feel like there's someone in the house. I wonder if they were sent to clean."
Upon hearing this, Qingyun noticeably lowered his voice and cautiously looked around. "We just searched the whole area but couldn't find anyone. It shouldn't be the cleaning staff. If your feeling is correct, I think this is not a simple matter."
"I'm sure I'm right, my intuition is pretty accurate. He was right behind me just now, but when I turned around, he was gone. If I'm not mistaken, that person's kung fu must be pretty good." Xiao Fang also lowered his voice.
Qingyun glanced at the time on his wristwatch and walked straight out of the courtyard. "I'll go back and report to the old man first."
Xiao Fang followed closely behind.
Xia Quan'an behind him made a few whimpering sounds and said with difficulty, "I...I still have me...take me out of here..."
Xiao Fang kicked him without hesitation and spat, "Pah, you old bastard, you still want to come with us? Go fend for yourself here!"
As they were talking, Qingyun got into the car, started the engine, and nodded to Xiao Fang with his chin. The latter jogged a few steps, got into the car, closed the door, and drove off, leaving Xia Quan'an alone.
Only after the two drove out of sight did a figure slowly emerge from the old house.
Xia Quan'an spotted the person at a glance and excitedly shouted "Awoo!"

Back at Maple Riverside, Xiao Fang immediately reported Xia Quan'an's situation to Mu Nanxun, and finally showed Mu Nanxun the photo of the man on Xia Quan'an's phone.
"It's him again."
Mu Nanxun glanced at it and then looked away, a complex emotion faintly revealed in his dark eyes.
Xiao Fang nodded in agreement. "Boss, you also think this person is the same one we investigated last time? I thought it looked very similar when I first saw him. Why does this person always wear a mask?"
"Why do you think that is?" Mu Nanxun raised an eyebrow and asked Xiao Fang.
Xiao Fang scratched his head and said resentfully, "It must be because I'm too ugly to show my face. If everyone looked as handsome as me, they would never cover their faces."
Mu Nanxun: "..."
"Don't tell me you've been there all this time and all you got was a photo, nothing else?" Mu Nanxun's expression betrayed his displeasure. If this person wasn't investigated quickly, it would be difficult to understand his true purpose. Everyone in the Mu family would be in danger.
Xiao Fang thought for a moment and replied, "Boss, Xia Quan'an did reveal a little bit, but I think it's all useless information."
"Tell me about it." Mu Nanxun raised her eyes, staring blankly at the man in the photo, lost in thought.
"Xia Quan'an said that the man kept his face covered, but it seems he has some deep-seated grudge against our Mu family. Isn't that obvious? If there wasn't a deep-seated grudge, why would he join Xia Quan'an in sending assassins to carry out the assassination, and even almost bump into Miss Yi on the way?"
"And what else?" Mu Nanxun listened calmly.
