Chapter 642: Looking for Someone
Early the next morning, Zhong Nianyao took Lu Yichen directly to a brothel.
Looking at the obvious signboard of "Baoyi Building" in front of him, which hadn't opened yet but was clearly a brothel, Lu Yichen raised an eyebrow and said, "Are you sure you want to bring me to a place like this so early in the morning? This shouldn't be a place for breakfast!"
"This place operates as a brothel at night, but sells information during the day." Zhong Nianyao smiled and shook her head, then said, "Not many people know about this. I only found out by chance."
The two men walked forward, and Lu Yichen knocked on the door without any hesitation.
Not long after, a cursing voice was heard coming from the direction.
"Who on earth is this? Knocking on the door so early in the morning. Can't you see that we're closed during the day? It's really ungrateful to disturb someone's sleep so early in the morning."
As the cursing noises grew closer, the tightly closed door opened, and a middle-aged man with a hunched back, a small mustache, and a somewhat wretched appearance walked out, still cursing non-stop. He looked both humble and aggressive.
However, when he raised his head and saw Lu Yichen and Zhong Nian Yao standing in front of the door, all the words were stuck in his throat, his heart suddenly contracted, and cold sweat began to appear on his back.
The brothel was originally open until almost dawn, and now the people inside had just finished resting and were woken up immediately. Naturally, they were in a very bad mood.
However, when he opened the door and saw a man and a woman standing outside, he couldn't utter any curse words.
Although the two people before him were dressed simply, their attire was anything but ordinary. Even just standing there, they both exuded an air of inviolable majesty. Even looking up at them seemed like blasphemy.
These two people really look completely out of place in a place like theirs, and don't seem like the kind of people who would appear here.
"You two..."
After swallowing, the man timidly said, "Is there anything I can help you two with?"
Lu Yichen raised his head, looked at the man, and said calmly, "Looking for someone."
"W...what?" The man didn't know how he should react.
You came to the brothel in broad daylight, saying you were looking for someone. Who were you looking for? Looking for their girls? Who were you looking for? Could you please be more specific?
He was complaining in his heart, but when he looked up and saw Lu Yichen's cold eyes, his heart couldn't help but tremble twice, and even his words became a little incoherent.
"We want you to help us find someone." Zhong Nianyao stepped forward. "This person should be in the capital. I think this should be easy for you."
"Madam, you really know how to joke." The man said with a somewhat flattering smile on his face, "If you want to find someone, then send someone to ask for it yourself! This is a brothel, and there are many prostitutes here. You are not looking for a prostitute, right?"
"I'm looking for a man." Zhong Nianyao smiled and shook her head, saying meaningfully, "I believe that with your abilities, finding someone in the capital, let alone in the country of Li, is a piece of cake."
"Madam, I don't understand what you mean." A hint of vigilance flashed in the man's eyes, but the flattering expression on his face remained unchanged. "We are a brothel and open for business. If you want to find a girl, you can come here. As for finding someone or other matters, we really can't help."
"Are you sure we really have to stand at the door and chat like this?" Zhong Nianyao raised her eyes, looked at the man with a smile, and then whispered three words, "Eternal Life Palace!"
The Hall of Eternal Life is a well-known organization in the underworld. They accept all kinds of business, including information trading and murder and robbery. However, no one knows where their headquarters is, let alone who they are.
Even trying to contact them for help is not an easy task.
But even so, Changshengdian's business is still booming, not for any other reason, but because of their high success rate.
Moreover, if they fail, they will refund all your deposit.
However, no one would have thought that the headquarters of the Changsheng Palace was in the Baoyi Tower in the capital.
As soon as these words came out, the man tried his best to control the subtle changes in his facial expression, but he couldn't stop it. He also exuded a faint murderous intent.
However, the next second, he froze. He felt as if he was being watched by a ghost, as if he would die at any moment.
He couldn't even move, but deep down in his heart he had an urge to escape from here.
"Yichen." Zhong Nianyao came to Lu Yichen, stretched out her hand, held his arm, and then shook her head gently at him.
Although Lu Yichen was somewhat reluctant, he sighed helplessly after seeing Zhong Nianyao's clear eyes, and then suppressed the coldness emanating from his body.
Suddenly, the man felt the pressure on him suddenly disappear.
His back was covered in cold sweat, his underwear was soaked, and he felt relieved to have survived.
When he looked at Lu Yichen again, his eyes were filled with awe. He could sense that if the other party had really killed him, he would have no chance of fighting back.
"Can you let us in now?" Zhong Nianyao said with a smile, "If we continue chatting here, I won't be responsible for any consequences if any nonsense gets out!"
The man raised his head, his gaze flickering between Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao. After pondering for a moment, he finally nodded, then stepped aside, gestured to the two of them, and said respectfully, "Please come in!"
Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao walked into Baoyi Tower together.
The arrival of the two was indeed a very novel thing for the people in Baoyi Tower.
Because Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao looked like a young married couple. Who had ever seen a young couple visit a brothel together? Moreover, they came in broad daylight, which was so strange no matter how you looked at it!
The most important thing is that Old Wu, who has been following them, looks respectful.
That's even weirder.
