Chapter 193 One Link After Another
"Is this woman named Wuteng an old lady who sells vegetables on the black market?" Yun Hao asked impatiently.
Liu Xu looked at him in confusion, "Are you asking me? I don't know, Chunxiang only told me this much."
She didn't say another word. If you don't believe me, you can go ask her yourself.
Lu Yi waved his hand, "That won't be necessary, we trust you. It's just that we have other guesses now."
Liu Xu's expression remained unchanged as she gave them a serious look. "I'm not the kind of person who breaks their promises."
I had absolutely no idea I was being monitored, and I'm truly sorry if this has caused you any inconvenience.
Yun Hao looked at her with surprise, "We didn't say anything to you, what are you worried about?"
"Alright, you should go back now! It wouldn't be good if Sanada Haruhi complained if you got back late."
"Okay, then I'll head back." Liu Xu felt inexplicably disappointed.
To be honest, this was the first time she had such close contact with someone her own age. In the previous twenty-odd years, she had never spoken so much with anyone.
So, she was inexplicably concerned about their opinions, but now it seems that these were just her overthinking.
After Liu Xu left, Lu Yi gently tapped the list she had brought over, "According to her, these are just people that Sanada Haruhi guessed."
But thinking about it, there must be some people she doesn't know about. If that's the case, then finding this mist vine is absolutely necessary.
Yun Hao rubbed his chin. "This Mist Vine, as their hub for transmitting messages, must have some real skills."
Most importantly, to be able to contact so many people at the same time, he must have been planning this for many years.
If we follow this line of thinking, then this person must have lived in Beijing for many years and must be quite old, so…”
“Therefore, that old lady selling vegetables is indeed the most suspicious!” Lu Ting said thoughtfully.
The group exchanged glances, unanimously agreeing with the decision, but Ye Ran hesitated, frowning slightly. "But..."
If that's really the case, then isn't everything going a little too smoothly?
It felt like someone deliberately delivered themselves to our door so we would become suspicious.
Logically speaking, this person was able to remain hidden in Beijing for so many years, and still had the ability to bribe so many important figures and make them willingly work for him.
So this person shouldn't be so simple, why would they rush to show themselves?
As Yamamoto's most crucial hidden move in Kyoto, he should have remained hidden behind the scenes to protect himself first.
"It shouldn't be like this. Wu Mei came directly to us, and we discovered it so easily!"
After listening to Ye Ran's analysis, Lu Yi and the others also realized what was going on, and their expressions, which had just relaxed a little, suddenly plummeted to rock bottom again.
Lu Tian sighed, "That's right. Didn't this woman named Sanada Haruhi just teach us a lesson?"
We've taken things too for granted; the enemy is far more cunning than we imagined.
After receiving such a reminder, the thing we should change most is our underestimation of our opponents and our carelessness.
Ranran is right. This incident serves as a wake-up call for us. Before evidence is presented, none of us can make any hasty conclusions.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Lu Ting's face unconsciously became serious. "Then..."
Dad, what should we do next? We've already caught all the leads we could, and now even Yamamoto's eldest apprentice has surfaced.
