With this thought in mind, Lu Zongyan always looked at Qin Shizheng with some scrutiny along the way.
But by the end of lunch, he still hadn't found any good place to start.
It's not just because Qin Shizheng's aura is overwhelming, but just one glance at him makes one feel so nervous that they can't breathe.
Also, he found that this person was really good to Jian Ci.
He poured the tea and peeled the shrimps himself, and also reminded Jian Ci to eat less spicy food to avoid stomachache.
The fifth master of a distinguished Kyoto family is capable of serving tea and water, and he is so considerate.
How could he find fault with this?
Lu Zongyan felt a little regretful and was just thinking about whether he should find another opportunity to test it out when the research institute came to urge him.
He hadn't come to school before because he had something to do.
If Jian Ci hadn't answered the phone, he wouldn't have dropped everything and rushed to school.
Now that the call came urging him, he naturally couldn't delay any longer.
Jian Ci then took the initiative to say, "I'll take you downstairs."
It was obvious that he had something to say to Lu Zongyan alone.
Qin Shizheng and the others didn't understand, so they didn't say anything.
Then the two of them went downstairs directly.
When they arrived at the parking lot, Lu Zongyan asked decisively, "Master, you have to be busy with the company and attend the exchange meeting. When do you plan to return to the institute?"
Jian Ci, who was originally planning to talk about something, couldn't help but frowned slightly when she heard this, "Did something happen at the research institute?"
Just as Lu Zongyan was about to speak, Jian Ci's phone suddenly rang.
It belongs to Qin Shizheng.
Jian Ci was a little confused. She had just gone downstairs, why did he call her so soon?
He immediately pressed the call button.
Qin Shizheng's deep voice immediately came from the other end of the phone, "There's movement over there."
Jian Ci's heart trembled, and she said decisively: "I understand, I'll come up right away."
After hanging up the phone, she didn't say any more nonsense. Instead, she took out a small wooden box from her pocket and handed it to Lu Zongyan, saying, "Have this medicine analyzed by the research institute and then give me the report."
Lu Zongyan was stunned for a moment after being interrupted, then nodded, "Okay, I understand."
After Jian Ci finished explaining everything, she quickly went upstairs again.
As soon as she entered the box, she immediately asked, "What's he doing?"
Qin Shizheng, who was sitting there, knew how important this matter was to her and immediately responded, "I just received news that he was assassinated, but he was rescued in time and saved his life."
Jian Ci half-closed her eyes, her eyes clear and cold, "Who is the other party?"
Qin Shizheng looked at the little girl's unfriendly expression, was silent for a few seconds, and said, "That person found out it was a trap and committed suicide."
Jane Ci was not too surprised by this answer.
It is their rule to commit suicide if caught.
One is to protect the boss, and the other is to avoid being tortured after being caught and give yourself a quick death.
But I still can't help but feel a little regretful.
After all, it would be even better if we could get something out of this person.
"Where is Zhou Zihong now?" Jian Ci asked hurriedly.
Qin Shizheng answered truthfully: "On the way back, I asked Bai Wenjin to take Director Zhou to pick him up."
Only then did Jian Ci realize that there was indeed no trace of Bai Wenjin in the box.
Jian Ci tapped the table lightly with her index finger.
After a long while, he raised his eyes and said, "I want to see him once."
Qin Shizheng nodded without hesitation, "Okay."
*
In the evening of that day, Zhou Zihong was secretly escorted back.
The place where he was escorted was where Yu San had stayed before.
When Jian Ci and Qin Shizheng came together, there was no big surprise.
Instead, Qin Shizheng occasionally whispered to her about the bad environment here and asked her to be careful with her step.
The two of them walked through the long, narrow and dark passage.
Bai Wenjin and Zhou Huaixing had already been waiting outside the door.
As soon as he saw the two men appear, Bai Wenjin immediately went to meet them, his usual nonchalant expression slightly restrained, "Fifth brother, the person has woken up, but has a fever."
Qin Shizheng turned his head slightly to look at Jian Ci. In the dim light, his face was as calm as water. "Do you want to talk alone?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Huaixing, who was standing there, changed his expression.
Chat alone?
That won’t do!
He did not forget Yu San's sudden abnormal behavior after Jian Ci met him once before.
He didn't react at that time and just thought that Yu San suddenly fell ill.
But now that I think about it, if it’s just as he expected, then Jian Ci must have been behind this.
So he didn't dare let Jian Ci meet Z alone again.
If she strikes again, their clues will be completely cut off.
Perhaps his gaze was too obvious, so Jian Ci glanced away.
After seeing Zhou Huaixing's uneasy and anxious expression, he smiled meaningfully and said, "No need."
As he said that, he pushed the door open and walked in.
When Zhou Huaixing heard this, he immediately felt relieved.
Then he followed in.
Inside the detention room, the lights were bright.
The whole room is lit up like daylight.
At this time, Zhou Zihong was lying on the small bed. His face was pale, his upper body was wrapped in gauze, and blood on his chest was slowly seeping through the white gauze.
When he heard someone coming in, he didn't even open his eyes, but just curled the corners of his lips coldly, and said weakly, "Don't think that if you save me... I will tell you anything..."
Jian Ci stood there lazily, looking down at the person in front of her with a condescending smile, "Really?"
