Chapter 308: No Idle People Left Behind
Lin Yilan ignored him. Qin Chaotian was so young and yet he was the second in command of the Qin family, so naturally he was not a good person.
However, Huo Juncheng's reminder was of no use to Lin Yilan. She was not stupid and she naturally understood it in her heart.
Although Lin Yilan had been practicing martial arts in the mountains since she was a child and didn't know much about these things, she had more or less heard of Qin Chaotian's name after returning to normal life.
Lin Yilan raised her eyebrows but did not respond to Huo Juncheng's reminder.
Lin Yilan knew very well who she should stay away from.
She is not a fool and has her own ability to distinguish.
Seeing her like that, Huo Juncheng was actually a little worried. To him, Lin Yilan was a thick-skinned person, and such a woman could easily be deceived. Huo Juncheng couldn't help but remind Lin Yilan again: "In short, you should be careful. That man is definitely not a good person. And it's best not to get too close to him in the future, no matter what the reason."
Lin Yilan said "oh", but didn't take it to heart and continued watching the video.
Huo Juncheng sat beside him and continued watching with her.
Lin Yilan noticed something in the video. The man in the video was as affectionate as a swallow. He stepped on the wall and flew directly to the entrance of the alley. Lin Yilan was amazed at his lightness and skill. "This man must be a martial artist. He uses lightness and skill so easily, jumping from one place to another in an instant. It seems that his internal strength is hidden."
Huo Juncheng nodded beside him: "Indeed, his Qinggong is good, so his internal strength should be quite good. For a martial artist to reach such a level, he is quite impressive."
Lin Yilan felt annoyed after hearing this: "A man who abuses his wife is really despicable. I didn't expect him to be a martial artist as well. This makes the matter even more difficult!"
Huo Juncheng understood her concerns. Thinking that the other party was also a martial artist, he couldn't help but worry about Lin Yilan: "Otherwise, we shouldn't continue to pursue this matter. Maybe this matter shouldn't be our responsibility. Handing this surveillance video to the police may help solve the case faster."
Lin Yilan reacted strongly, extremely dissatisfied with Huo Juncheng's reaction, and even despised Huo Juncheng for being cowardly. "No way, you could just stand by and watch something like this happen. Just imagine how badly that woman was beaten? Besides, since you decided to intervene from the beginning, I won't give up halfway. Don't try to persuade me. If you don't want to follow me, that's fine. I can investigate on my own!"
Seeing that Lin Yilan was angry, Huo Juncheng stopped trying to persuade her. He just watched the video quietly, hoping to find some clues.
Lin Yilan was more concerned about whether she could find the mysterious organization's tattoo on the man! However, after flipping through the video several times, she couldn't see the man's face clearly, which gave her a headache.
"Of course he came prepared. He must have known there were surveillance cameras nearby, so he wore all black. He also flew over the eaves so fast the surveillance cameras couldn't capture his every move. Not only could you not see his tattoos, you couldn't even make out his face!"
Huo Juncheng touched her head and reminded her, "Since you are also a martial artist, I think you should be able to discover something from this."
Lin Yilan suddenly understood and clapped her hands, saying, "That's right. My master once said that the purpose of the Nanshan master's training is to make the body as light as a swallow so that one can practice martial arts better. I just don't know if this person is from Nanshan. If so, we go to Nanshan to investigate and we will soon find out the truth."
Huo Juncheng chuckled, "It seems you're quite clever. You figured out the clue right away. But if we go investigate now, I'm afraid they won't admit it easily, even if it's their people. I suggest you gather more evidence so you'll have more confidence when we confront them face to face."
"You're right, that's exactly what you said."
Lin Yilan packed up her things on the table and prepared to leave when Huo Juncheng stopped her and continued to ask about Nanshan with interest: "You said that the Nanshan master is as light as a swallow, so what's the difference between him and your sect?"
Lin Yilan frowned and thought for a moment before explaining briefly, "Master Nanshan uses softness to overcome hardness, and our faction is hard. If a fight really breaks out, we might be defeated by their people. That's why you reminded me to gather more evidence. A face-to-face confrontation won't be beneficial to us. You actually made a lot of sense!"
"Then where do you plan to start your investigation? It's impossible to go to Nanshan now. You can only get more information from other people." Huo Juncheng was worried about Lin Yilan and didn't want her to take risks.
Of course, Lin Yilan is not stupid. She has already thought of a solution. Although she doesn’t know whether it will work, she still thinks it is worth a try.
"I'm planning to go back to my master's sect and see if I can find out anything about Nanshan from him. If I ask my master about this, he should know some information since he has dealt with them before."
Lin Yilan packed up her things and stood up. She took half a step and turned back to look at Huo Juncheng. Seeing that he was also looking at her, Lin Yilan really couldn't bear to leave him alone here, so she took the initiative to extend her hand to invite him.
"Would you like to go back to the sect with me?"
Huo Juncheng hesitated: "Are you sure you want to take me back to your sect?"
Lin Yilan raised her eyebrows and smiled, with a hint of teasing in her eyes: "Huo Juncheng, your body is cold. I am worried that if I leave you here alone, you will be in great pain when you go to the bathroom, without anyone to take care of you. So, based on humanitarianism, I still think I should take you with me. It's good that way, so we can take care of each other. After all, it's not safe for me, a woman, to walk on the road. Maybe it would be better to bring a man with me."
Huo Juncheng knew that Lin Yilan was deliberately making excuses. In fact, he could see that Lin Yilan wanted to keep him by her side and really cared about him.
Huo Juncheng no longer hesitated and was about to get up when he heard Lin Yilan add awkwardly, "But if you're very busy recently, you don't have to go with me. I can't delay your work, right?"
Huo Juncheng looked up and asked Lin Yilan, "I remember you once said that your sect is a paradise with beautiful scenery. I've been in this big city for so long, and I'm a little tired of the hustle and bustle here. It's a good idea to occasionally go to some quiet place and stay."
He deliberately came to the rescue so that the atmosphere wouldn't be so awkward, and also to cater to Lin Yilan's words so that she wouldn't feel shy because of her initiative.
"Since you want to see that paradise, then I will personally take you to see the beautiful scenery of our sect. Don't say you don't want to come back when you get there. Our sect doesn't tolerate idle people!" Lin Yilan deliberately teased him, but although she said so, she was happy in her heart that Huo Juncheng agreed.
Huo Juncheng paid for the plane tickets, and Lin Yilan began to prepare the luggage they would need to return to their master's sect. However, when she was halfway through packing, she suddenly received an emergency call.
