Jian Huan and Jin Yi were extremely furious.
Without even mentioning the fact that they were so angry with Yan Xiao, just based on their relationship with him. Even if it was ordinary people, they would not be able to stand seeing Mei Luo being ruined and tortured by him, even if they were a little foolish.
Jian Huan was simply unable to imagine: "How can there be such a malicious woman in this world!"
Jin Yi's face darkened, he clenched his fists, although he did not say anything, her anger, was not any less than Jian Huan's.
After Mei Luo finished untying herself, she walked back and sat down with her back facing them. She looked like a wandering soul, as if she really did not have a soul left.
Jian Huan's heart ached a little. "Boss must be very sad to see aunt like this, right?"
Shao Zi said: "When we went to pick up the people, boss and Yan Xiao went with them. We didn't go with them, so I'm not too sure about the details."
Jian Huan looked at Mei Luo. Originally, they had wanted to share some of the burden with him, but seeing Mei Luo like this, with her back facing them, they felt that it was fine, but facing that face, they had to get used to it for a few days. Even when they recalled the scene when they met each other just now, Jian Huan's heart was still racing.
Jin Yi swallowed his saliva: "Then what do aunty need right now, let's do it."
Shao Zi said: "The medicine has already been boiled, although Yan Xiao's mother does not recognize anyone, but she is still very quiet, eating as food, eating as food, sitting, being pulled to the bed by someone to sleep, very quiet and obedient."
Jian Huan and Jin Yi looked at each other, instantly feeling that they were useless.
It was also Jian Mo's idea that Shao Zi would let them come over to take a look.
The two of them stayed here for another two hours. Mei Luo had already fallen asleep, so the two of them had no choice but to return to the Academy.
Yan Xiao lived in the same courtyard as Jin Yi and Jian Huan. When they returned, they saw a faint light shining in Yan Xiao's room, which obviously indicated that she had not slept yet. The two hesitated before they knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Boss."
Yan Xiao did not even raise her head when she was in the room. From time to time, she would flip the pages of the book and reply with an "En".
"Boss, we just returned from the base."
Yan Xiao paused, and raised her head to look at the two of them: "Really? It's getting late, you two can go rest first."
Seeing Yan Xiao's indifferent look, Jian Huan felt his heart aching and sore. He wiped his face: "Boss, I won't be able to sleep anyways, so I'll help you look for it."
Jin Yi immediately sat down: "I have some knowledge regarding medicine, I can help too."
Yan Xiao looked at them and said without saying a word. She threw over a few books: "The poison is corrosive, the skin and flesh on the body are rotten, and there are traces of flesh that are black from the poison in the skin …"
The two of them, together with the four of them who were messing around after meeting up, all gathered in Yan Xiao's hut.
Yan Xiao had more than a hundred books in her possession, she had to look through them as soon as possible. If she could not find them, she would probably need to read them a second time. They had to fight for every second.
Fortunately, Yan Xiao and the others could understand those lessons in the academy, and it was fine if they didn't go. With the academy's rules, even if they didn't leave their rooms in a few days, no one would be able to stop them.
When Shao Zi returned, he immediately reported it to Jian Mo. Then, he looked at Jian Mo who was sitting motionlessly: "Boss, you're not going to Yan Xiao's place anymore?"
Jian Mo's body was obviously stiff for a moment: "Keep an eye on the outside, don't lose anyone, let Aunt send more people to protect them, you and Hu Zi can go over to Yan Xiao's place and help look around, I don't need to take care of this place."
"Huh?" Shao Zi was a little confused.
Usually, when the big bro went to report to Yan Xiao, he did everything he could to get a sense of existence. But now that he was sent to the branch, he actually had to stay here, which was not quite right.
However, Jian Mo did not give him the chance to speak, directly waving his hand and dismissed him.
Shao Zi and Hu Zi left the room and Shao Zi heaved a sigh of relief, "Hu Zi, I don't think this is a good thing."
Hu Zi immediately looked at Shao Zi warily: "Don't even think about slacking off, this was boss's order!"
Shao Zi was speechless and rolled his eyes at him, "You fool, I have nothing to say to you!"
Hu Zi turned his head, he was not willing to say it, and he did not want to hear it.
The two of them walked towards Yan Xiao's room. Shao Zi, who had been silent for half a sentence, could not help but say: "I think boss might have been rejected.
"What?" Hu Zi immediately revealed an inquiring look.
Shao Zi grinned at him, then turned and left. Heh, I don't want to say anymore!
In the next few days, Yan Xiao and the rest were extremely busy, no one saw Yan Xiao and the others coming out of the school, because they could be considered famous people, and were even the focus of attention.
On the other side, after seeing Aunt Li, Hong Yan was very worried. That night, she thought that something was amiss, so she quietly left the Hong Mansion.
He made his way to a brothel on Linjiang City in the dark and entered through the back door.
Soon after, Hong Yan was brought to a room, and before long, an old bridesmaid Xu came in. When the woman saw Hong Yan, she smiled exaggeratedly: "Yo, what kind of wind blew on you, Madam Hong, here, come and drink tea."
"Yes, mother."
Hong Yan was still maintaining her aloof and solemn appearance outside, seeing the old procuress in, she nodded her head indifferently: "Long time no see, mother Li."
Mother Li laughed, "Isn't it so? Did the Red Lady get some new goods? When will you deliver him to me?
Hong Yan frowned slightly, and said: "This time, it's not for sale, I want you to help me find a person."
"Yo, it's not a delivery. You need to investigate the person. Then, we should properly conduct our business." The old procuress looked at Hong Yan, her smile carrying some other meaning.
At this time, a maid brought Hong Yan and the others some tea, then sensibly left.
The old procuress picked up the teacup, flicked the tea foam on it and said, "Who is the Red Lady looking for?"
"One woman, no, two women. One of them is easy to recognize. That person is a woman who has a face covered by a mask." Hong Yan said, her eyes flashed with killing intent.
The old procuress sipped some tea and said, "It's not a problem to find someone, but how much can the Red Lady pay?"
Hong Yan said indifferently: "As long as we find him, after everything is done, how can I treat you badly?"
The old procuress pointed at the teacup with her bright red fingers: "I can't say for sure, but I heard that the Jiangyun Town's guards have already been suppressed. I don't know how much you have on hand right now. As the saying goes, if you want a horse to run, you have to let it eat its fill. The Red Lady doesn't have anything, so she asked me to investigate first. I'm afraid that would be against the rules. There are a lot of people eating under my hand, don't you think? "
"You! How could I lose your advantage! " Hearing that, Hong Yan's heart immediately choked with pain.
This old procuress, Mama Li, had once been a courtesan in a brothel. It was said that she had been extremely beautiful when she was young, which had captivated quite a few men. Later on, when he was old, he rented a brothel here.
In the beginning, Hong Yan and Mother Li did not interact much with each other. However, every time she asked someone to help her, the two of them started a business relationship, and she and Mother Li had worked together quite a few times. She had previously sold girls here, and had Mother Li help her look into the news every now and then.
Hong Yan did not know who was behind this mother Li, but she was truly well-informed. Previously, when Chu Huaizhi was able to smoothly become the Guardian of Jiangyun Town, a lot of the help Hong Yan gave was because of this mother Li.
After that, they worked together a lot, but it was not convenient for Hong Yan, she would only pay when she was satisfied with the results the next time, this was already considered a tacit agreement between the two of them, to actually ask her to pay first, what was the meaning of this!
Mother Li laughed as she looked at Hong Yan who was so angry that her face turned red, "Madam Hong is right, how could a person like you not pay your debt? But recently, our business in this building has not been so good.
No matter how well she said it, wasn't her husband's family losing his power for fear that she would go back on her word?
Hong Yan was so angry that with a "Pa" sound, she threw over a bag of broken silver.
Mama Li didn't even look at it. "I'm afraid this amount of money isn't enough."
"How can five hundred silver here be insufficient? I only want you to investigate the whereabouts of two women. How much more do you want?"
Mother Li extended two fingers, causing Hong Yan to stare blankly, "Two thousand gold, why don't you go and snatch it!"
Mama Li smiled and waved it off, "No, Madam Hong, you misunderstood. It's twenty thousand taels!"
"What!?" You two are just useless trash. I told you two to go and investigate the whereabouts of the place, but you actually went as far as asking me, you simply didn't put me in your eyes! " Hong Yan slammed the table in anger, pointed at Mother Li and scolded.
Mama Li's expression changed, "Hong, this is my territory. We can find people to pay for it, so let's work together. If you can't afford it, no one will stop you from leaving. If you want to repudiate your debt with me, then ask the head of your Hong Mansion if he has the guts to come here! "
"You!"
Hong Yan was so angry that smoke was coming out of her seven orifices. She was truly bullied to such an extent that Hong Yan grabbed her money purse and walked out.
Mama Li crossed her arms and didn't even scream.
But after walking a few steps, Hong Yan grinded her teeth and came back: "Alright, twenty thousand. I will pay, you must find the person for me! I'll pay you ten thousand down payment first. "
The smile on Mama Li's face returned. She smiled and said, "Madam Hong is indeed a straightforward person. Leave this matter to me."
After being cheated for twenty thousand silver taels, Hong Yan's heart was set ablaze. She had to return to her home to get another ten thousand silver taels, before she returned home resentfully.
Wait until she dealt with Mei Luo and her daughter, those two bitches. We'll settle this debt slowly!
In Yan Xiao's room, which was still fighting at night, Jian Huan was yawning sleepily as the door was suddenly pushed open. Jian Mo walked in opposing to the light: "Yan Xiao, do you see this?"
Everyone, who were looking very tiredly, suddenly became energetic.
Yan Xiao raised his head and rushed over: "I found it, quickly show it to me!"
