Chapter 225



While Su Ruochu was at the yoga studio, Chen Fan and Feng Pojun came to the corridor outside the door.

"What is it?"

Feng Pojun glanced around and whispered, "I'd like to take a few days off to investigate."

Chen Fan glanced at Feng Pojun and asked, "Do you want to investigate those masked men?"

"right."

"The security team here is already very mature, so there's no need for me to keep an eye on them. I'm going to check what happened that night and see if I can find the murderer."

As long as the murderer is found, the boss can be cleared of suspicion.

Chen Fan hesitated for two seconds, then asked, "How confident are you?"

Feng Pojun shook his head. "Let's just go to the scene first. If there are no surveillance cameras around, it will be difficult to find those people."

"But no matter how difficult it is, we have to try, boss. If we don't take the initiative, and the woman insists on suing you, you will have to go back to the police station for investigation."

Chen Fan frowned slightly.

"Did Manager Ding go to meet that woman?"

Feng Pojun did not hide it, "Yes. But I don't know how the meeting went."

Chen Fan took out his cell phone and called Ding Dian.

When the call was connected, Chen Fan got straight to the point and asked, "How is it?"

The slightest sound is a little annoying.

"This woman is stubborn and now she insists that you were the one who did it."

"Because during this period of time, you were the only one who had a direct conflict with us, and you are the most likely to be the one who took action."

Chen Fan: "I have an alibi for that night."

"But the evidence provided to you is from your roommates. The police need to carefully distinguish the true from the false, which may take some time."

Chen Fan was a little annoyed: "It means that I have to wear the hat of a suspect for a while."

Dingdian thought for a moment and suggested, "How about I go talk to her again?"

"No need. Come back."

Chen Fan's face was not looking good. "If you stay there, people will think it was really us who did it."

"Come back. If she doesn't have direct evidence, I want to see how this woman can bring me down."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Fan looked at Feng Pojun.

"Don't be impulsive, don't expose yourself, check quietly, and if you find any trouble, stop immediately."

"good."

Feng Pojun nodded, turned around and left quickly.

Just at this time Su Ruchu came out of the yoga studio.

Chen Fan greeted him with a smile on his face.

"How is it?"

Su Ruochu nodded and said, "The teacher is very professional. If I have the chance, I would like to take the class."

Chen Fan smiled and said, "That's exactly what I wanted to say."

"It's best if you come. At least you can keep me company."

"Of course, given our relationship, I can give you a discount if you come over. How about a friendship price?"

Su Ruchu glanced at Chen Fan, snorted lightly, and walked towards the door.

"I'm hungry."

"My wife is hungry? What are you talking about? Let's eat right away."

After leaving the club, Chen Fan drove Su Ruchu around West City aimlessly.

Compared to the city center, the old town style in Xicheng has its own unique characteristics.

The two of them found an inconspicuous wonton shop and filled their stomachs.

After coming out, Chen Fan suggested, "Let's go shopping this afternoon? Or find a place to have fun?"

Su Ruochu shook his head. "I've basically visited the city center, but I haven't been to West City yet.

“Is there anything fun here?”

"A fun place?"

Chen Fan smiled bitterly: "Xicheng was raised by a stepmother in Yunhai City. You can tell from the architectural styles that they are all old houses from the 1970s and 1980s."

"Most people who live here go to the East City area. The West City has a stale vibe from inside to outside."

'But this situation will not last long. In a day or two, the whole West City will be facing..."

Oh shit!

Chen Fan was startled.

I was so cocky just now that I almost blurted out something that hadn't even happened.

You should know that the overall demolition and reconstruction project of Xicheng District has probably not yet been approved.

"What are you welcoming?" Su Ruchu asked curiously.

Chen Fan complained and quickly changed the subject.

"Didn't you just ask what fun places there are in Xicheng? In fact, the most distinctive feature of Xicheng is the large number of ancient buildings."

"I heard that there is an unknown temple on Mount Huang in the western suburbs, which has a history of at least 600 years."

Upon hearing this, Su Ruchu became interested.

"Really? How about we go and take a look?"

Chen Fan smiled bitterly, "Going hiking on your birthday? How about we do it another day?"

Su Ruochu pouted, "It will take until tomorrow."

Chen Fan surrendered immediately.

"Okay, okay, let's go now. Who wants to celebrate your birthday today? You are the oldest."

Su Ruchu immediately revealed a victorious smile.

"Hold on tight. Let's go."

An hour later, we arrived at the foot of Huangshan Mountain.

Chen Fan found a roadside and parked his bike behind a tree.

The two of them climbed up the stone steps, surrounded by lush pine trees.

Occasionally, I see a few elderly people coming here to burn incense, but there are not many people.

After finally climbing to the top of the mountain, Su Ruchu stood on a rock and looked down. A breeze blew, and her long hair fluttered.

"Wow! It's so beautiful."

Chen Fan stood aside and watched the scene with a smile.

You stand on the mountain and look at the whole world, but I only have eyes for you.

This was Chen Fanxiao's first visit to this temple, and it was indeed more dilapidated than he had imagined.

Because it is an unknown and dilapidated temple, it has not received much attention from the higher authorities despite so many visitors, so naturally there is no funding.

Without money, there was no repair. As a result, the temple walls were weathered and dilapidated.

Entering the courtyard, I occasionally ran into a few pilgrims, all of whom were quite old. Chen Fan and Su Ruchu were the youngest couple.

There are several large trees in the courtyard that require several people to hug them, especially the tree in the middle, which is so tall that it probably takes seven or eight people to hug it.

There are several strings of red ropes hanging on the branches, probably hung by someone who came here before to pray for blessings.

Walking through the courtyard, Chen Fan discovered that the bricks on the ground were not of uniform color. Some were already covered with moss and pits, while some were obviously replaced recently.

When we arrived at the main hall of the temple, a great monk was sitting at the door chanting sutras.

"Master."

Chen Fan and Su Ruchu hurriedly greeted them.

"We want to worship Buddha and visit the temple at the same time, is that ok?"

The great monk chanted Amitabha and then said, "Donors are welcome to do as they please. This temple is completely free of charge and is open to tourists for free."

"Thank you."

Chen Fan and Su Ruchu nodded.

"You go in and worship the Buddha. I'll wait for you here."

Su Ruchu nodded and walked into the hall alone.

Chen Fan looked at the master and asked.

"Master, I just saw that the floor tiles in the courtyard seemed to be being renovated. Why was only part of it renovated?"

The abbot explained that the renovation costs of the temple were entirely funded by voluntary donations from pilgrims during the time.

If they have money, they will buy a new batch of bricks and replace them. If they don’t have money, they will continue to wait for new destined people.

Chen Fan asked with a smile: "Master, if I want to donate blue bricks, what are my requirements?"

At this time, Su Ruochu in the main hall had just knelt down on the cushion and made a wish, and an old monk with white beard and eyebrows next to him slowly opened his eyes.

"Does the female donor want to make a wish and pray for blessings?"

Su Ruchu nodded consciously.

"Today is my birthday and I want to make a birthday wish in front of the Buddha."

The old monk slowly opened his mouth: "Since it is your birthday, then you have a connection with our temple. Would you like me to tell your fortune for free?"

Su Ruochu smiled faintly, "Okay."

"Please tell me your birth date."

After Su Ruochu finished telling his birth date, the old monk slowly closed his eyes and muttered something to himself.

After about a minute, the old monk suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his cloudy eyeballs.

He looked at Su Ruchu in front of him with some surprise.

"Donor... I am afraid you will face a bloody disaster..."
