"Okay, I'll give you a bank note of [-] oceans in a while." Sheng Di smiled, and then walked all the way to prepare the bank note.

Lu Ming and Yuan Mingzhu stood side by side, comforting Sheng Youde one by one.

Sheng Youde smiled wryly and said: "Don't worry, don't look at me as if I'm not dead or alive, I can still hold on, and I won't die until I get a result, or see Mu Yi, or find her murderer , I'm going to cut him with my own hands." After finishing speaking, Sheng Youde slammed the table, making the tea bowls on the table jingle.

"You heard me, you must find out the results. If someone really hurt Sister Mu Yi, I will be counted as one of them." Yuan Mingzhu also said angrily.

"I have a strange idea. Maybe Mu Yi had some unavoidable reason and disappeared on her own initiative." Lu Ming said in a deep voice.

Judging from everyone's narration so far, Lu Ming felt that Sheng Muyi's murder had little to do with it, rather it seemed that she disappeared voluntarily.

His reason is this.It was also the first time for Sheng Muyi to enter the presidential suite, so she had to check the layout of the room before hanging the chain.

There are two possibilities for hanging the chain: one is that she really wants to have a good rest, and she doesn’t want anyone to break in by accident. Although there are two loyal bodyguards guarding the door, this possibility is unlikely, but she still instinctively She did, or maybe she didn't trust the bodyguard outside the door that much.

Anyway, this means that when Sheng Muyi entered the room, there was no one there.

However, another possibility cannot be ruled out, that is, someone had ambushed inside in advance, Sheng Muyi was attacked as soon as she entered, and she might have been injected with anesthesia or drugged.If so, then the chain inside was attached by the assailant.

Lu Ming remembered hiding behind the door of his room from the person who wanted to attack him last night. Is there any connection between this?

But he still shook his head, for some reason, he just felt that this possibility was unlikely.

"You mean that Mu Yi has something to hide. Even so, Mu Yi won't do this. She should know how much it will hurt me." Sheng Youde shook his head.

But in an instant, he suddenly recalled the pain, struggle, admiration, nostalgia and reluctance contained in his daughter's eyes when she looked at him for the last time, and his heart was shaken again.

He didn't tell Lu Ming about it, and maybe he had an illusion at the time, and if he said it, it would mislead Lu Ming's detection.

"Do you know why I must find you?" Sheng Youde said.

"Maybe it's because of our close relationship?" Lu Ming didn't understand either.

"No, it's because Zhang Ziyang, the inspector of the police station, told me that if anyone can solve this case, it must be because of your injustice." Sheng Youde said.

"Zi Yang is making fun of me." Lu Ming smiled wryly.

He didn't expect Ziyang to have such a high opinion of him. This kid usually hurts himself whenever he gets an opportunity, and he can't wait to step on the ground. Of course, he is the same. For fun.

Lu Ming got up to say goodbye, but Sheng Youde waved his hands and said, "Don't leave, I have something to tell you tonight."

Yuan Mingzhu got up and said with a smile: "Old man, I should go back. If I don't go back, my elder brother won't worry."

Sheng Youde said with a smile; "Mingzhu should stay here for a few days, and she will live here often in the future. You all should live here, anyway, there are plenty of vacant rooms. I have already sent someone to send a message to your elder brother. I know you're here with me."

"Oh, that's right, then I'll go and see some good sisters first." Yuan Mingzhu turned and left the room.

Lu Ming waited for a while, seeing that Sheng Youde didn't speak, he followed Mingzhu and backed out.

He didn't understand why Sheng Youde didn't say anything now, and he had to wait until evening to tell him.

Lu Ming called to stop Yuan Mingzhu, and was about to tell him about his uneasiness, but he saw Steward Sun coming over and said with a smile: "Master Lu, please come with me, the master has reserved a suite for you."

"Is there any mine?" Yuan Mingzhu asked with a smile.

"Yes, of course, yes." Butler Sun said with a smile.

The two of Lu Ming followed Steward Sun through a moon gate and came to a courtyard. This is the room arranged for Lu Ming, which is actually a clean and small courtyard.

"It's quiet here, so it's easy to think about. Next door is Master Di's house. It's also close to the master's place." Butler Sun introduced with a smile.

There are only three main rooms in this courtyard, no side rooms, and I don’t know what it was originally used for. There are two pomegranate trees, some flowers, and a small bamboo forest planted in the courtyard.In the cold wind in late autumn, the bamboo leaves rustled.

"By the way, Uncle Sun, do you know where my sister is? I searched for her place for a long time yesterday, but I couldn't find her." Yuan Mingzhu thought of an important matter at this moment.

"Miss Ziyuan, she used to come to look for the eldest lady almost every day, but she hasn't come for some days recently." Sun Butler said.

He thought for a while and shook his head, "No, it's because Miss has never been here since her accident."

"What a coincidence?" Lu Ming murmured in his heart, suddenly feeling wrong.

Ziyuan and Sheng Muyi have been close friends since they were young, and they can't wait to be together every day. Ziyuan moved from Huzhou to Shanghai because of Muyi, and she often came to Sheng's house without avoiding suspicion.

It is said that she is already engaged to Sheng Di, and generally speaking, she should not show up at the Sheng family, otherwise it will attract gossip.

But regardless of these things, Ziyuan still came to see Mu Yi often, and even stayed here often. Outsiders originally had some gossip, but after knowing that Ziyuan and Mu Yi handed over the handkerchiefs, no one made irresponsible remarks.

Of course, this is also because those who make irresponsible remarks have been warned by the Green Gang to keep their tongues in check, otherwise, they might lose their tongues one day.

Who doesn't cherish their tongue, it's a bit too sad to lose their tongue in order to gossip about irrelevant people.

"Uncle Sun, are you sure that after Mu Yi's accident, Ziyuan will never come again?" Lu Ming asked hastily.

"Is my sister lost too?" Yuan Mingzhu stuck out her tongue and grimaced.

She was joking, but it turned out to be a prophecy.

"Of course not. How could someone as old as Miss Ziyuan lose it?" Butler Sun smiled.

However, his expression immediately became gloomy again. Mu Yi is not the same big girl, and there are a large group of bodyguards serving her, and her whereabouts are unknown.

"Oh, I just remembered. Miss Ziyuan returned to her hometown on the morning when the eldest lady had an accident. The eldest lady originally asked her to attend the prodigal ceremony, but she said she had something urgent to go back to her hometown, so she didn't attend." Steward Sun suddenly He patted his forehead and said.

"That's not right. If I had returned to Huzhou that morning, my sister would have been home by now." Yuan Mingzhu counted the days and felt that there was something wrong.

"Maybe Miss Ziyuan changed her mind later and went to meet other friends halfway." Butler Sun laughed.

Lu Ming felt that this explanation was correct. Ziyuan might have rushed home to attend the wedding because she heard the news that her family was forcing Mingzhu to get married. Maybe she met another good friend on the way and was delayed for a few days, so she went to The surface of the water was staggered from them, and perhaps their boats had passed by.

In the room, Butler Sun suddenly smiled mysteriously, and then took out a bottle of wine from the interlayer of his robe. It was French brandy, and it was still 30 years old.

"Miss Mingzhu, your blessing."

Yuan Mingzhu grabbed it, looked up and down for a while, and said with a smile: "This is good, I'd like to drink it."

Lu Ming smiled wryly, whether this daughter-in-law will be able to support her in the future is hard to say, she has such a high taste in drinking, it seems that his detective agency will not be able to open a chain store in the future, and it will not be able to support the family.

"Uncle Sun, how did you settle things with Mr. Liu?" Lu Ming asked.

"It's okay, I just told Mr. Liu that Mr. Lu is the master's favorite junior, and he is similar to Mr. Di. How can this matter be resolved? Do you want the master to talk to their boss. Mr. Liu is also very straightforward People say that it is not a big deal, but his people were beaten, and he should get back his face and add a little more medical expenses."

"It's really shameless, that person was not injured at all, and he just set up a bitter trick to blackmail people." Yuan Mingzhu said bitterly.

Lu Ming laughed: "He wasn't injured yesterday, but he was seriously injured today. Besides, those people were also very scared by you."

Yuan Mingzhu recalled the scene of stepping on Cao Boren's face with her foot, and her heart couldn't be more happy.She kept in mind her famous saying: You can't be soft-hearted when you treat a villain. If you don't treat him well, he will never be able to distinguish between black and white, and he will never be able to recognize himself.

"Actually, it's because you're too young and aggressive. It's fine for me to talk about such a trivial matter. Why fight with those gangsters and ruin your identity." Sun Butler laughed.

"How did Uncle Sun dismiss Mr. Liu?" Lu Ming was still a little curious.

"There's nothing to do later. I gave them three hundred oceans and asked Mr. Liu if it was enough. He said enough, and the matter is over." Butler Sun said with a smile.

Lu Ming and Yuan Mingzhu still felt depressed. Although three hundred oceans were not much, they were still blackmailed.

"Don't feel that you have been wronged, let alone try to get back the situation. You are all young masters and ladies, don't get entangled with those gangsters, dirty yourself, it's not worth it."

"Uncle Sun's words make sense. From now on, we need to use more brains and less hands. After all, we are scholars, and we can't have the same knowledge as them. Convince others with virtue!" Yuan Mingzhu looked at Lu Ming and laughed.

Butler Sun and Lu Ming both laughed.

Butler Sun took out a small cloth bag from his pocket, which contained two clean porcelain cups, put them on the table, opened the wine, and poured two cups.

"Take it easy, both of you. I can't drink the foreign taste of brandy, so I'd better go back to the old bar." After finishing speaking, Butler Sun walked out slowly.

Yuan Mingzhu took a sip of the wine, and then said intoxicated, "Okay, it's really good wine. No wonder my sister comes here every day, so it's because of the good wine here."

Lu Ming laughed loudly: "Zi Yuan comes here every day because of Mu Yi, you think everyone is as greedy for drinking as you are."

"Who said I'm greedy for alcohol, I only drink good wine, and I don't drink bad wine if it pays you money." Yuan Mingzhu argued with a blushing face.

"You've come to the right place. As long as you are willing to live here in Mingzhu, you will have good wine to drink every day." Following the words, Sheng Di walked in and handed Lu Ming a stack of bank notes.
