After much tossing and turning, I protected Huang Fang's mother with the pattern on my hand. Before I could catch my breath, I heard a muffled groan, and found two eyes on the bedside of Huang Fangfang's mother.

Although this is the second time I've seen such eyes, I still couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart. An indescribable feeling surged in my heart.

At this moment, these two eyes were filled with hatred. I don't know if it was my imagination, but I saw it staring at me without moving, as if it wanted to tear me apart with its gaze. Moreover, it didn't flash and disappear like it did the first time I saw it.

I admit that I'm not a overly timid person, but the hatred and ruthlessness in those eyes almost made me unable to forget it for the rest of my life.

I know that this matter can be considered to have come to an end with the mastermind behind this.

I don't know who he is, but I'm not afraid.

I already have a few unknown enemies, so why should I be afraid of one more?

Qiyou also walked over, without saying a word, she stood by my side, but she did not look at my eyes, and instead snuggled up to my side, a pair of beautiful eyes were filled with worry, and after a long while, she slowly said: "Ma Que, let's go, leave this place."

I knew that she was concerned about me, but I still rejected her very decisively. I coldly said, "A man is born in this world. If you only know how to run away from everything, then what is the difference between you and a salted fish?"

Hearing my words, Qiyou lowered her head, and after a long while, she raised it again and looked at me, her moving eyes had an additional trace of determination, and an additional trace of certainty, she muttered: "Ma Que, I suddenly realized, you have grown!"

My heart stirred and I lowered my head to look at her moving eyes. I suddenly felt embarrassed and patted her head with an embarrassed smile. "What if I don't grow up? I can't always rely on you, can I?"

Finally, I looked at Huang Fangfang's mother and saw that she had already opened her eyes. She looked at me weakly and whispered, "Thank you. I feel like I just had a terrible nightmare."

I opened my mouth, but didn't know what to say. I feigned a relaxed smile and said, "No matter how scary a dream it is, it isn't scary. Living a good life is the most important."

Looking at Huang Fangfang's exhausted mother's face, I don't know how much she knew about the whole thing, but I knew that she was slowly coming out of the grief of her husband's death, and that was one of the reasons that made me feel relieved.

At the same time, however, I was so upset that I didn't know what to do next.

I don't know if the mastermind is still keeping an eye on him!

I called Captain Hu in but didn't say anything, only giving him a meaningful nod.

Captain Hu hesitated for a moment as if he had understood the situation. His stern and exhausted face slightly relaxed as he grinned: "You've worked hard!"

After inexplicably saying this to me, Captain Hu turned around and said a few more words to Huang Fangfang's mother, then turned around and patted my shoulder, "Brother Ma, I have to thank you for this matter. Come, let's go eat something good."

I didn't understand why Captain Hu would suddenly think about this, but seeing that it was just food, and he looked to be in a good mood, I nodded my head and said: "My Uncle Chen is still up there, I'll go greet him."

"Okay, you can go." Captain Hu grinned and sent me to the elevator, but he didn't have the intention of taking another step in. I asked him, "How about we go together?"

"No need, you go first, I'll wait downstairs." Captain Hu waved his hand and chuckled.

So, I went upstairs to look for Lanlan. The little girl was very happy to see me, so she held my hand and chattered for a long time. In the end, if it wasn't for Uncle Chen helping me, she wouldn't let me go.

"Ma Que, what's the matter?" When I came out of Lanlan's room, the Uncle Chen asked me softly, looking extremely worried.

I shook my head and laughed and said, "It's fine. Isn't there a friend waiting downstairs?"

Uncle Chen didn't ask any further, he only warned me to be more careful before he let me go.

I thought that Captain Hu was still waiting for me downstairs, but I was worried about Huang Fangfang's mother's safety, so I turned back to look at her. After confirming that the black fog was not coming out, I let out a sigh of relief, turned around, and went back downstairs.

It's just that Captain Hu said he would wait for me, but when I went downstairs to look around, I did not see him.

"Did he go to the bathroom?" I muttered to myself, thinking that if there's no other way, I'll call him. Suddenly, my eyes lit up, I discovered that there's a person standing in a remote corner behind the pillar. I looked over and saw that it's Captain Hu.

However, at this moment, he was slightly lowering his head, not knowing what he was doing. Initially, I thought that he was making a phone call, so I waited for a while through the glass.

But after waiting for a few minutes and seeing that he still hadn't moved at all, I couldn't help but be curious. I thought that even if I had called, I wouldn't be able to hide there.

Thinking of this, my curiosity rose. I immediately walked over and saw that he was facing the pillar. He was motionless, as though he was in a daze.

I thought he was a cop and he was also human. Maybe it was because he was under too much pressure these past few days, so I called out to him softly.

However, Captain Hu still did not move, as if he did not hear anything.

I was even more curious now, so I patted him on the shoulder and patted him on the shoulder a few times before he reacted.

At the same time, he instantly turned his head around and looked at me with a vigilant expression. After he saw that it was me, he lightly coughed a few times and hoarsely said, "Brother Ma, it's you!"

Captain Hu said as he put his hands into his pockets, as if he wanted to stuff something into his pockets.

Although I felt that it was strange, I thought that everyone had their own secrets, so I didn't pay much attention to it. I faintly smiled and said, "My business is done. Let's go, let's go eat."

"Hehe, good job." Captain Hu grinned and a gentle smile appeared on his face as he responded.

In the restaurant, Captain Hu was in a particularly good mood, so much so that I felt a little strange. After drinking a lot of wine, his eyes were red and had a strange look to them. He kept praising me for my ability, my conscience, etc.

However, I kept comforting myself that I was overthinking things, because I knew that it was understandable for people to do abnormal things under pressure. Thus, I just laughed it off and ate and drank with him for a long time.

However, I was still very worried about Huang Fangfang's mother, so I said, "Captain Hu, let's not accept her. I'm worried about the safety of her mother."

"Don't worry, that damned thing won't find him anymore," Captain Hu replied after hearing my words.

When I heard that, my heart thumped. I was even more confused, why did Captain Hu reply with such certainty? Could it be that he knew something?

I originally wanted to ask something, but Captain Hu added on: "I was just guessing. According to my experience in handling cases, when the bad guys do not succeed in their first strike, they retreat. They will not fall into their trap."

Although I believe what Captain Hu said, at this moment, he is in a state of high spirits, and his tongue is stuck straight. I only have a bit of doubt towards what he is saying.

This meal lasted for more than an hour. I also drank a little, but I didn't drink much, and when I paid for it, Captain Hu insisted that I pay the bill, refusing to let me come no matter what, and even said that as an elder brother, I would treat my little brother to a meal, and there would be no more chances in the future. Anyway, the more I talked, the more chaotic it became, causing me to be at a loss whether to laugh or to cry.

However, when Captain Hu took out some money from his pocket, my eyes suddenly lit up. I discovered that there was a piece of paper in his stack of money.

I was taken aback and focused my eyes at the same time.

This paper was none other than the "Eye of Heaven"!
