When Yu Meng followed the army, Lu Youhuai had already escaped without a trace.
They all had the tattoos of the Tigers, so their identities were obvious.
Yu Meng only wanted to find traces of Tan Yubai, she wouldn't listen to what the soldier with the gun said at all.
"Captain, I found it."
Hearing that, Yu Meng seemed to have grabbed onto something that could save her life as she excitedly rushed over and asked, "Did you find it? "Really? Where is it?!"
It was a man wearing a bulletproof vest and a hat. After he reported the report, he moved aside and the soldiers behind him brought the hostages up.
It was Fang Rui.
Her hair was disheveled, her eyes were dull, and she was still trembling when someone brought her along.
"What's your name?"
"Fang Rui."
"Your friend reported the case and said that you were kidnapped. Now that you're fine, go take a rest."
Fang Rui nodded and raised her head to look at Yu Meng's face. Finally, she could no longer hold back her tears.
"Fang Rui!"
When Yu Meng saw that it was Fang Rui, and not the man in her heart, she said that she was a little disappointed, but more importantly, she was happy to see that Fang Rui was fine.
The two of them embraced in excitement as hot tears welled up in their eyes.
Yu Meng's chin was on Fang Rui's shoulder, her voice trembling uncontrollably.
"Have you seen him?"
Fang Rui's body trembled. Actually, what she was worried about the most was that man as well. The two sisters' tacit understanding made her cry even more as it rolled down.
"Yes."
Yu Meng felt her shoulders become wet. Her heart tightened as she couldn't bear to ask, but she had to ask.
"Is he still alive?"
Fang Rui did not know that she would not be able to see anything if someone chased her out. Although she was always at the scene, she could only see those tall and big foreigners, cheering and happily watching something.
"I don't know." Fang Rui's voice trembled: "I only heard that they are fighting …"
As a screenwriter, Fang Rui was so confused that she couldn't find the words to describe her feelings.
Other than nervousness, it was also fear.
"Fight?!" Yu Meng's heart sank, "He suffered such heavy injuries!"
At this moment, a Chinese soldier suddenly came over and interrupted their conversation.
"Hello everyone. We need to return to the embassy to take a statement. Please follow us to the car."
Yu Meng hesitated.
She didn't want to go. She wanted to know what had happened to him.
"Also..." Yu Meng held onto her last bit of hope. "I still have a friend …"
Originally, Yu Meng wanted to say that her friend who was unaccounted for was in a dangerous situation and that she hoped that the police would use all their powers to look for her, but they were stopped by Fang Rui.
"Okay, we'll go back with you."
Yu Meng did not understand what Fang Rui meant, but she still remained silent.
Before she left, she walked across the harbor beach and saw the dark mask of blood on the floor.
Yu Meng's heart clenched as she tremblingly picked up the mask. Her legs gave out and she fell to her knees.
"Yu Meng!"
Fang Rui was shocked. She leaned over to help Yu Meng, but from the corner of her eyes, she saw the blood that was smeared all over Haiti.
There were also some black clothes floating in the air.
That was the material on the clothes that was slashed by the dagger, Fang Rui recognized it.
The surface of the sea was calm, as if Fang Rui suddenly felt at ease after taking a bite.
"He's fine." Fang Rui patted Yu Meng's shoulder, and pointed to the sea surface with a very small movement.
"Look, he jumped into the sea and ran away." Yu Meng's eyes were red and swollen as she stared at the surface of the sea.
The torn clothes and the blood stains all cut at Yu Meng's heart like knives.
"Get up, it's time for us to leave." Fang Rui supported Yu Meng as they walked step by step out of the sea.
The mask in Yu Meng's hand was a sign of regret that she wouldn't be able to catch up with.
She could have prevented him from taking the risk, and if she had been any later, she could have saved his life.
Yu Meng didn't speak a word along the way. She leaned against the window, her soul seemed to have left her body, floating erratically.
Everything that had to be done in the embassy together with the military was done by Fang Rui. In the eyes of everyone, Fang Rui was clearly the one that had been threatened, but in the end, she was even calmer and calmer than the person who reported the crime.
"Why didn't you let me tell you that there was someone else missing?"
On the way out of the embassy, Yu Meng finally asked the question that she had been holding in for a long time.
Tan Yubai's whereabouts were still unknown, so he was told to send someone to the embassy to search.
"Why do you know him?" Fang Rui asked.
Yu Meng was stunned. She had only guessed that the black clothed man was Tan Yubai, but she was still not 100% sure.
"He saved me."
"Saved you?"
"When I was in North Zone, I met with a robbery. It was he who saved me."
Fang Rui nodded her head. Her eyes were soft and sad.
"Do you know who he is?"
"It's the hero that destroyed the LTTE, the legend of the entire Sri Lanka."
Yu Meng was stunned.
"Are you serious?"
Fang Rui nodded. She was a hundred percent sure, because she would never forget that look once she saw it.
Yu Meng's mind was in a mess. Her mind was filled with countless threads of information, and no matter what she did, it wouldn't go well.
He could only listen to Fang Rui continue.
"And I haven't heard anything about him since." Fang Rui said: "So I think, his identity should be kept a secret …"
"In other words, if he is a spy in the military, only a few of the upper echelons would know of his identity, or …"
Yu Meng's heart tightened as she quietly listened to Fang Rui continue.
"Or nobody knows."
"In other words, his identity could be found by the Chinese police. Only information that is detrimental to him can be found. For example, he once worked for the LTTE, or he killed someone before … …"
Yu Meng finally understood why Fang Rui wanted her to keep it a secret.
"Then after all these years, he couldn't have lived like this without revealing his identity, right?!" Yu Meng asked, "Then might he still have some meaning …"
"If I'm not wrong..." Fang Rui said with a heavy expression, "It should be because of Lu Youhuai's reappearance, which caused him to have no choice but to hide his name and return home."
"Why?"
"If he lives well with his new identity all these years, there must be people close to him around him. If he continues to live with his new identity, and Lu Youhuai finds out about it, it will definitely implicate the people around him."
Yu Meng was shocked.
"So …" Fang Rui sighed: "If he doesn't want to reveal his identity, then we shouldn't reveal it to him."
"I understand now …"
"Right." Fang Rui suddenly thought of the words that the man had said at the port: "Why did you ask him to save me?
Yu Meng was also very depressed.
"I don't want to get involved with them again." She sighed deeply, "Because of a sudden whim that day, I wanted to go to that Mu Bai's worn-out tea garden and take a look."
Fang Rui finally remembered.
"Yeah, that day you sent me a message asking for an address."
"Yes." Yu Meng nodded her head, "When I went to the teahouse that day, I found the graves of Mu Bai and Wen Lan."
Fang Rui was shocked for less than half a second, but when she thought about it carefully, this was actually within her expectations.
"They were finally buried together."
"Yeah." Yu Meng nodded, "But I didn't just discover them, I also found that man."
Yu Meng smiled, she always said that man's name was unknown, she could not just call her Tan Yubai, so she added.
"I call him Little Black."
Fang Rui was bitter: "He's the hero in my heart, to actually call him by such a cowardly name."
Yu Meng smacked her lips. "You shouldn't focus on this, right? The question is, why is he in that tea garden?" That place has clearly long been abandoned. "
Fang Rui shook her head.
"I'm not sure either. Maybe it's just a temporary place to stay?"
Yu Meng shook her head. "I don't think so."
Yu Meng paused and continued, "I saw a small wooden box behind Wen Lan's tombstone. I was curious and picked it up to look."
Fang Rui rolled her eyes at Yu Meng: "What if it's my ashes? It would be rude of you to hold it up just like that. "
Yu Meng was thinking the same thing, but she still shook her head.
"No, that box is very light. There's nothing inside."
"So, you opened it?"
Yu Meng nodded.
"You're not afraid that the two elders will come look for you?"
"But just as I was about to open it, Blacky came out of the house. It scared me so much that I threw the box onto the ground."
"And then."
"Then he walked over expressionlessly, picked up the box, and left."
"Gone?"
"There's nothing else."
Fang Rui rolled her eyes at Yu Meng again, "So... Should I give you a beating to let you understand the fear of the dead, which is what you call a normal performance? "
"Fang Rui, I'm not joking!"
Fang Rui laughed: "Alright, I won't interrupt you anymore. Quickly finish it, okay?"
Yu Meng continued angrily, "I asked him if he could show me the box, because when the box fell to the ground, there was a photo inside."
"I want to see that picture."
"Did he agree?"
Yu Meng shook her head.
"This is very normal." Fang Rui said, "He thinks that this has nothing to do with you, why should I let you see it?"
"I even begged him not to show me anything."
"If you want me, then I won't show you." Fang Rui said, her doubts welled up: Why do you have to look at that picture?
"Because I saw the woman in the picture." Yu Meng took a deep breath and said slowly, "He looks like a person."
"Who?"
"My mom."
