Chapter 447: Finding the Heart of Heaven
Yi Mu left the prison reluctantly.
As soon as he got home, he quickly called Nangong Yu and told him everything.
After hearing this, Nangong Yu didn't say anything, just said "I know" and hung up the phone.
Situ: "Where is the hometown he is talking about?"
Nangong Yu: "Do I even need to ask? Of course it refers to the Star of Heaven!"
Situ: "Why would this madman take his own son to Tianzhixing?"
Nangong Yu: "Who knows? But I know he must have his own reasons for doing this."
Situ: "Are we going back to Tianzhixing?"
Nangong Yu: "There is no other way."
Situ: "That's easy for you to say. The Heart of Heaven is in your father's hands now. How can we go back?"
Nangong Yu: "Isn't he in jail? Tian Zhixin must be at Xiao Yuehan's house. Why don't we ask Yi Mu to look for him?"
At Xiao Yuehan's house, he was playing billiard with Sun Xiaomei.
Sun Xiaomei: "I haven't seen your boss for a long time. How is he doing recently?"
Xiao Yuehan: "He's in jail."
Sun Xiaomei: "You really have an unlucky fate! None of your previous bosses had a good ending."
Xiao Yuehan: "Don't be superstitious. They are destined to have this fate. There is nothing I can do about it. In fact, this matter really cannot be blamed on me."
"Ding-dong, ding-dong", a crisp doorbell rang.
Xiao Yuehan put down the pool cue and went to open the door.
Sun Xiaomei: "Hey, there's a new handsome guy here. How about him? Do you want to play with us?"
Xiao Yuehan: "Give up on that idea! He's already married."
Sun Xiaomei: "Are you jealous? I'm just saying a few more words of greeting since we're friends."
Xiao Yuehan said to Yi Mu, "Ignore her. She's just a cameo. I'll take you to that old man's room to find Tian Zhixin!"
The two went to Nangong Lan's room and searched through all the drawers and cabinets, but found nothing.
Xiao Yuehan: "There is no Heart of Heaven here."
Yi Mu: "Where do you think he would hide the things?"
Xiao Yuehan: "I'm not sure about that either. Prison or somewhere else, where do you think is most likely? It definitely won't be here."
Yi Mu: "Will the prison allow him to carry such a valuable item with him? Or should they give it to the prison guards for safekeeping? Isn't that too risky?"
Xiao Yuehan: "Nangong Lan, this old man, is just like your father. He likes to do unexpected things. The most dangerous place is actually the safest place. Think about it yourself!"
Yi Mu: "I miss you, even if he is really hiding in the prison, I can't get Tian Zhi Xin out of the prison, right?"
Xiao Yuehan: "Haha, that depends on what you mean."
Yi Mu returned empty-handed and looked a little depressed.
That day, Xu Lin came to give Wanwan psychological treatment again.
When she saw Yi Mu's sad face, she said to him, "You're making Wanwan feel like a burden. Can't you be a little happier?"
Yi Mu: "I'm so sorry. Something happened at home recently that made me upset and I didn't pay attention to controlling my emotions for a while. Don't worry! I will definitely be more careful in front of Wanwan from now on."
Xu Lin: "What's going on? You've escaped death so many times, what else could be so upsetting to you? Oh, by the way, why haven't I seen Situ lately? Where did he die?"
Yi Mu: "I'm running around for my family. Xu Lin, do you remember how Wanwan got the scar on her hand?"
Xu Lin: "You're asking even though you already know the answer. Are you trying to use this to beg for a favor? Just tell me what you want to do! I've never refused you when I could help you."
Yi Mu: "Do you know the police in the prison?"
Xu Lin: "We're not familiar with each other on the surface, and we don't have any friendship in private. What are you trying to do? Want to help someone escape from prison? That won't work. I'll arrest you first."
Yi Mu: "You misunderstood. Didn't you arrest a man named Nangong Lan last time? I suspect he stole my brother's things, so I want you to ask a favor from the prison guard and find the things for me."
Xu Lin: "Are you sure the things are in the prison?"
Yi Mu: "I'm not sure, but I still have to try it if I have the chance, right?"
Xu Lin: "What is that thing that is so important?"
Yi Mu: "A sapphire called Sky Star."
Xu Lin: "So it's this thing. I see. Leave it to me. If I find it, I'll give it to you. If not, you'll have to give up on it, okay?"
Yi Mu nodded: "I am very grateful that you agreed to help me with this matter."
Xu Lin checked her watch and stood up to say goodbye, "It's getting late, and I have to go back to the police station. Wanwan's recovery has been progressing well recently. I know my own efforts alone wouldn't be enough, and this couldn't be possible without the silent support of your family. I hope we can continue to work hard and strive to get Wanwan back to a normal life."
Yi Mu: "I will. We are all so familiar with each other now, so I won't send you off."
This time, Xu Lin did not go back to the police station directly but drove directly to the prison where Nangong Lan was imprisoned.
The police officers in the prison all know Xu Lin because half of the prisoners here were arrested by her.
She was received by the deputy warden.
"What wind blew the flower of our police station here?"
"Old Liu, stop talking nonsense. I'm here to investigate a case."
"Of course I know you're here to investigate. Otherwise, are you here to have tea with me? Tell me, who are you going to interrogate again this time? I'll arrange it for you right away."
"You're so sweet, are you licking your lips? Are the prisoners now undergoing labor reform? That's perfect. I'm not going to interrogate them, I'm going to check their personal belongings."
"This... doesn't seem to be in compliance with regulations?"
"Screw the rules! How can we investigate any case if we're so timid?"
"Whose personal belongings are you going to check?"
"That's Nangong Lan who just came in."
"That's fine, but I have to be there the whole time. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, we won't be able to cover it up even if we have the whole prison!"
"Okay, let's go!"
They came under Nangong Lan's bed, and Lao Liu pulled out a storage box.
"That's all he has here."
Xu Lin opened the lid and started looking through the items one by one. Unfortunately, there were only some ordinary things inside, and there was no precious gem that Xu Lin was looking for - the Heart of Heaven.
Xu Lin: “Is that all?”
Lao Liu: "I'm sure that's all. You're in prison now, reforming yourself. Do you think this is a vacation to relax? There's also a storage room and a cloakroom for your things?"
Xu Lin: "Could he be hiding in someone else's storage box?"
Lao Liu: "It's possible. Some people have more stuff, some have less. But the prisoners here are all worried about their own safety. Generally, they are reluctant to help others hide things. If they find out that it's contraband, won't they be unable to defend themselves?"
Xu Lin: "I don't care. I'm going to search all the storage boxes here until I find what I want."
