The young man looked at the colorful neon sign above the bar door in confusion, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his face.
Qingxin Bar, why does it sound so familiar to him?
The young man was Zhou Xi.
These days, Zhou Xi has been concerned about General Zhou's health and has not paid attention to the Special Operations Team for a long time. Otherwise, when Zhou Xi saw the words "Qingxin Bar", he would definitely think of the report on his desk.
Over the past six months, the Qingxin Bar has gained considerable fame in Kyoto. However, it's not a good reputation.
Just half a year ago, someone went to the Chaoyang Branch to report that his younger brother had entered the Qingxin Bar and never came out again.
Three months later, someone went to the Chaoyang Branch to report the case, saying that his son had gone to the Qingxin Bar with his friends three days ago and there has been no news since then.
The two missing persons cases brought the Qingxin Bar to the attention of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Chaoyang Branch.
The police from the Criminal Investigation Department went to the Qingxin Bar for several open and secret investigations, but they did not find any trace of the missing person.
Without evidence, the police cannot close down the Qingxin Bar. They can only send more personnel and strengthen patrols around the Qingxin Bar.
Zhou Xi stood in front of the Qingxin Bar, feeling a little conflicted.
Although Zhou Xi looked like a young man, he was still an old antique at heart. This was the first time Zhou Xi, who had lived for over seventy years, had ever set foot in a place like a bar.
However, Zhou Xi has rich life experience. Just because he has never been to a bar doesn't mean he doesn't understand that bars are a place where all kinds of people gather.
What Zhou Xi wanted to discuss with He Jingjing was not suitable for a noisy place like a bar.
He had already secured admission to Kyoto Fashion Design College for He Jingjing, as she had requested. He Jingjing had also agreed to teach him her "secret technique." But what was the meaning of the address He Jingjing had given him during the day? Teaching him the technique in a bar? Was He Jingjing playing a trick on him?
A trace of anger flashed across Zhou Xi's face, and he was about to leave in anger.
General Zhou's thin and old face appeared in Zhou Xi's mind.
Never mind! Now that he was here, he might as well make the best of it. He should go and see what He Jingjing wanted.
After taking a deep breath, Zhou Xi reached out and pushed open the door of Qingxin Bar.
The lights in the bar were a little dim. On the stage in front, a resident singer was roaring a rock song in front of the microphone.
Zhou Xi stood by the door for a few seconds before his eyes adjusted to the smoky and dim environment.
Zhou Xi looked around the bar, but didn't see He Jingjing, so he couldn't help but frown.
"Sir, are you looking for someone or would you like to order something?" A beautiful waitress saw that Zhou Xi was slow to move and couldn't help but come up and urge him.
What a beautiful woman! After seeing the waitress, Zhou Xi secretly praised her in his heart.
Zhou Xi had lived for nearly seventy years, but this was the first time he had seen such a beauty as the waitress. She had a beautiful figure, a gentle voice, and every move exuded a beautiful charm.
"Looking for someone." No matter how beautiful the woman was, Zhou Xi only took a glance at her and then looked away.
"My name is Yunshang. May I ask who you are looking for? Perhaps Yunshang can show you the way?" When Yunshang heard that Zhou Xi was looking for someone, the smile on her face became even brighter.
"He Jingjing, is she in there?" Zhou Xi hesitated for a moment, but still said He Jingjing's name.
"Oh~! So sir, you are here to look for Miss He? Miss He is on the second floor. I will take you upstairs to find her." When Yun Shang heard Zhou Xi say that he was here to look for He Jingjing, the smile on her face became even more intense.
Zhou Xi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that He Jingjing was on the second floor and not in this noisy environment.
It seems that He Jingjing is very familiar with the people in Qingxin Bar, otherwise, she wouldn't live on the second floor, right?
Thinking of this, Zhou Xi nodded towards Yun Shang and said, "Thank you, young lady."
"Hehehe...you're welcome, sir." Yun Shang's laughter was crisp and pleasant.
Zhou Xi followed Yun Shang, turned through an alley, and came to a small living room.
On the left side of the living room, there is a polished rosewood staircase leading directly to the second floor.
How generous! Zhou Xi sighed secretly.
This Huanghuali wood is often used to make furniture, but it's the first time Zhou Xi has seen it used to make stairs.
"Sir, please watch your step. The light at the corner is broken and the light is a little dim." Yun Shang reminded with a chuckle.
"It's okay, I saw it..." Zhou Xi opened his mouth to answer, but before he could utter the word "see", a warm wind blew towards Zhou Xi's face.
Before Zhou Xi could react, he smelled a sweet scent with a hint of sandalwood.
Zhou Xi's body went limp and he lost consciousness.
On the second floor of Qingxin Bar, in a luxuriously decorated office.
"He Jingjing, if you want to do evil, don't drag Yunshang into it." Huang Dalang sat behind the large desk and glared at He Jingjing.
He Jingjing's back was leaning against the door frame, and she looked lazy and boneless.
Seeing Huang Dalang getting angry, He Jingjing just curled her lips and said, "Huang Dalang, who are you to Yunshang? Does Yunshang need your consent for anything she does?"
"I... Yunshang and I are from the same hometown. We come from the same place, so we should help each other." Huang Dalang stood up, but found that his short stature lacked momentum when standing on the ground. He quickly jumped onto a stool and said while half-squatting.
"Tsk! Fellow countrymen? Helping each other? Huang Dalang, do you dare to say in all sincerity that you have no improper thoughts about Yun Shang?" Seeing Huang Dalang's expression, He Jingjing's contempt deepened.
This Huang Dalang, with his mean face and rat-like appearance, was a nuisance to everyone. Unfortunately, Huang Dalang's strength was comparable to that of a mid-stage foundation-building cultivator. With his small frame, he was no match for Huang Dalang, so he could only waste his brains and argue with him.
"I, I, I... I like Yunshang, so what? You are not Yunshang, can you make the decision for Yunshang?" Huang Dalang was squeezed by He Jingjing and couldn't help but stiffen his neck and said something.
"Hehehe... I can't make the decision for Yunshang, because Yunshang can make the decision for herself. Huang Dalang, don't you know that Yunshang hates you to the core? You still want to win Yunshang's heart. You are really overestimating yourself." He Jingjing continued to mock Huang Dalang, but she was secretly anxious in her heart.
This Qingxin Bar is the most secret place He Jingjing can find at the moment. If Huang Dalang really doesn't agree to her using the Qingxin Bar's venue, her plan will be delayed, but time waits for no one! After that old man Zhou Jinyu dies, Zhou Xi will definitely not be so easy to deceive.
"Yun Shang hates me? Why would she hate me? I am obviously devoted to her..." Huang Dalang was hit hard by He Jingjing's words.
