Pu Qinghan sighed. So this is the renowned and virtuous Su Family of Jinghua... A family of two generations, both with photographic mories...
Actually, she and Gong Jiu were both quite confused about the main thread behind this terrifying murder case.
Su Zimu said there were two threads, one involving people and the other objects...
"So the opponent’s goal was to kill nineteen people and acquire the Rongwei Armor and helt? And this Rongwei Armor and helt hold exceptional research value, beneficial to the Nation... But the problem is, these two items had already been stolen years ago. Let’s assu the official state is 1, then the party behind the attack and theft is 2, naturally possessing the items. But now Duke Zheng’s Mansion has the Rongwei Armor... Does this an Duke Zheng’s Mansion is part of 2, and a third party is intervening, attempting to snatch this fruit... But..."
Gong Jiu felt her head was getting ssy...
Not until Sui Yi said, "There’s no 3."
"Huh?"
"So far, there is no 3," Sui Yi spoke, lowering her eyes to the professional docunts Ye Changan wrote about the Rongwei Armor and helt. As she read, she said, "This matter appears very complex, intertwined with many people and events. At first glance, it seems there are multiple parties involved. But for the Rongwei Armor, which has exceptional research value, no side would easily reveal it unless it could not bring complete value on its own and needs to be used as a bait..."
These words made the three people, Su Zimu included, startle. Gong Jiu’s eyes flickered: "You an the second party had the helt and Rongwei Armor, yet still couldn’t achieve a satisfactory result and needed to use it to lure out another part, and this part..."
Su Zimu nodded: "Is the information left by my second uncle... Do you know what a complete set of external forces is? If it were in a ga... A set is still missing one thing..."
"Weapons," Sui Yi uttered coolly, her gaze falling on Pu Qinghan and the others.
"This weapon is the most crucial... And actually, people and objects are connected. Out of those nineteen people, so truly needed to be purged from The Gate, and this gate is related to it,"
Sui Yi took up a pen and wrote in a small notebook: Smuggling military arms.
Gong Jiu and Pu Qinghan were chilling to the bone.
"There’s also a group of people who share a common characteristic," Sui Yi’s gaze made Pu Qinghan slightly tense: "We... all co from Jiangdu."
", Gong Jiu, Xiao Xianting, Zhuang Ziliu... The four of us all hail from Jiangdu, and before this, we had no involvent with military arms. The only possibility is that we touched upon the secret of the weapon."
Pu Qinghan revealed her keen intelligence, at least implying to Su Zimu that the most crucial clue was not about an unreachable figure.
Indeed, maintaining her integrity in the entertainnt industry for so many years wouldn’t have been possible without so degree of emotional and intellectual intelligence.
"Weapon? Su Zimu, do you have a blueprint of the weapon’s design?"
"I do not, I only know there is one weapon..." Su Zimu would certainly not reveal the confidential information he morized in his mind. If he did, Sui Yi and the others would be in trouble in the future...
"Hey, you’re saying both Qinghan and I have seen this weapon? Well, I’ve turned the world upside down for many years; it’s quite possible I’ve seen it. And Qinghan, you’ve acted in so ancient martial arts dramas as well, maybe one of those props is that legendary, extraordinarily mysterious weapon..."
Gong Jiu was making a purely joking comnt but abruptly noticed Qinghan’s rapidly changing expression and the subtle looks in Sui Yi’s eyes.
"Um... Could it be..."
"I think it could be possible," Pu Qinghan’s forehead broke out in a light, cold sweat as she bit her lower lip: "Do you still rember that scene in the desert... when we first t?"
"I rember,"
"During the filming of that scene, a wealthy businessman was pursuing ... He once contacted saying he could provide all the props and set arrangents for that scene, that is, he’d be the sponsor... I refused... Maybe because I rejected him too many tis, he didn’t seem to care and just sent so pictures. They were all pictures of those props. I noticed the props were very unusual, seemingly very Elder Gu-like. I thought such old props would either be impractical or genuine antiques; naturally, I refused and after giving him a stern rejection, I blocked him and deleted those pictures... But a month or two later, he ca to , and before I could speak, he said so really odd things,"
Pu Qinghan paused, then recounted the man’s words...
"Qinghan, I think I have been contaminated by sothing unclean. These days, all I can think about is murdering. So I don’t dare to co to you... But I know, they certainly won’t stop. Maybe you will be dragged into this by in the future... so I must give you a layer of protection. With it, they won’t dare to harm you..."
