Sheng Youde took Xianghe away after waking up. Of course, all the expenses were settled by the Sheng family, as well as He Jin's rescue fee and the three-day cost of the life support system.

"Master Lu, you must try to save Xiao He, I'm sorry for him."

Before leaving, Xianghe held Lu Ming's hand tightly, and said with tears in his eyes.

"I will try my best, and the hospital is doing its best, don't worry." Lu Ming comforted.

He can only comfort in this way. At this point, neither he nor the hospital can do much. Whether He Jin can wake up and whether the nervous system of the body can break through the obstacles and recover depends on his survival. The desire is not strong enough.

Although doctors like to regard themselves as the gods of patients, doctors are not gods after all. Many times they can only transfer patients to the real God and let them accept God's arrangement.

This God is not the God of heaven, but the patient himself.

People who have experienced life and death struggles may find this point: everyone is their own god, and life and death, misfortune, fortune and good fortune depend on themselves in the end.

Zhang Ziyang also went back, and he had to go back to the police station to write a report. Two people were poisoned, one died of poisoning, and the other might become a vegetable, and this person was still in his car when the poisoning occurred. The report was written, and then the case had to be filed and a dossier established.

He left two police officers with guns and two plainclothes detectives outside the ward, and someone would come to cover their shift in the middle of the night.

Lu Ming stood outside Tongren Hospital and waited for Yan Xiaohui. He thought about pretending to forget about the date and sneaking away, but Yan Xiaohui was completely offended by that. How will he meet people in the future?Do you still want to ask someone to do something?

You can't really be a liar.

For some reason, Lu Ming always felt that he would ask Yan Xiaohui again in the future. The hospital is a place of hell, and it is also the place of hope.Yan Xiaohui, a great god, cannot afford to be offended.

"Yo, you're still waiting here. I thought you'd run away in fright." Yan Xiaohui, who had changed into a cheongsam and high heels, came out with a radiant appearance. She was quite surprised to see Lu Ming waiting obediently. .

"I want to run, but I'm too timid to run." Lu Ming said with a smile.

"You're still timid. If you were timid, there would be no one in Shanghai Beach." Yan Xiaohui said.

"Are you praising me or belittling me?"

Talking and laughing, the two walked to Yan Xiaohui's car, Lu Ming opened the door and asked Yan Xiaohui to get in the car, acting like a gentleman.

"The matter of the Sheng family is very deep, you'd better get out and don't get stuck." Yan Xiaohui started the car and said so abruptly.

"Miss Sheng is missing, how can I ignore it..." Lu Ming knew what Yan Xiaohui meant, but he couldn't speak too bluntly.

He didn't notice that the car had started, and he was suddenly squeezed against the seat, and he didn't speak clearly for the rest of the sentence.

Yan Xiaohui turned his face and glanced at Lu Ming, the expression was meaningful, worried and caring.

"Do you know something about the inside story?" Lu Ming suddenly thought that Yan's family is also in the cocoon silk business, and has cooperative relations with several large Japanese companies.

"I don't know anything, I just remind you a few words as a bystander, and you will understand later." Yan Xiaohui said indifferently.

"That's all?"

"That's all."

Lu Ming concluded that Yan Xiaohui must know something, but it's a pity that if they don't tell, he can't help it.Yan Xiaohui was not the two bodyguards, so he could be taken to the police station for questioning.

Lu Ming weighed it up, and said in a tentative tone: "I'm worried that Miss Sheng will be poisoned one day, but I don't know how to deal with it, so..."

"You also know that the Japanese are attacking the Sheng family, right? They were poisoned by dolphin fish twice in a row. Do you think this is an accident? And the Japanese didn't even try to hide it. Otherwise, they could have It’s not difficult to change to a covert method. If you openly use dolphin toxin, why don’t you think about it?” Yan Xiaohui replied.

Yan Xiaohui couldn't go any further, she had her own conjectures, but she couldn't tell Lu Ming all of them.

But one thing is for sure, she was worried that Lu Ming would be poisoned to death by dolphin fish, or that someone would shoot him black in a dark alley in Shanghai.

"The Japanese are too arrogant. They want to expand their influence in Shanghai. Is it testing the waters against Sheng Youde?" Lu Ming expressed his thoughts.

"We are all people who have studied abroad. We should know that reason is more important than emotion in many cases. I know the relationship between you and Muyi, and I also know the relationship between you and the Sheng family, but have you ever thought about it: Are you really Do you know the Sheng family? Do you really know Sheng Youde?" Yan Xiaohui said.

Lu Ming didn't answer, he understood that what Yan Xiaohui said to him was just to wake him up, not to ask him to answer.

Yes, does he really know the Sheng family?

Of course he didn't understand, even he didn't know much about Sheng Youde. After all, it was his father who knew Sheng Youde best, not him, but his father almost never talked about Sheng Youde, nor did he talk about Sheng Youde. home business.

Lu Ming didn't pay much attention to this matter before, but now looking back, his father seems to have been avoiding all the topics of Sheng Youde and the Sheng family intentionally or unintentionally.

Sheng Youde once specifically reminded him that the Sheng family is a matter, don't trust anyone except Sheng Youde himself.Of course, this was said after Sheng Muyi disappeared, and Sheng Muyi should not be included.

This sentence hides a mystery, even a murderous intent.

Lu Ming's mind was a little confused, but he was clear about one thing, that is, his employer was Sheng Youde and not someone else, so no matter what, he still had to be loyal to his employer.

But he knew that Sheng Youde didn't tell him the whole story, obviously covering up.What the hell is this for?Could it be that he only wants him to track down Sheng Muyi's whereabouts and leave him alone?do you mean this?

For example, when the family members of the Sheng family were poisoned together, the Tongren Hospital had tested it to be dolphin toxin, but Sheng Youde suppressed it with money, and did not take any measures against the Japanese afterwards.

Of course, this can be explained as he wanted to use his personal relationship to find the murderer, but unfortunately he couldn't, but Lu Ming felt that things were not that simple.

At least one thing Lu Ming couldn't understand, why did the Japanese challenge Sheng Youde in Shanghai?

Sheng Youde is the most powerful Chinese in Shanghai. Over the years, even the more powerful British, French, and Americans have not offended him easily.

After all, it is on the land of China, don't the Japanese understand the principle that a strong dragon does not overwhelm a local snake? !

"By the way, let me inquire about something. Have the Japanese ever borrowed money from your family?" Lu Ming asked with a smile.

"Borrowing money? Why? Japanese businessmen are very rich, how could they borrow money from my family?" Yan Xiaohui asked puzzled.

"Then under what circumstances would a Japanese borrow money from a Chinese?" Lu Ming asked again with a smile.

"You're playing tricks on me." Yan Xiaohui understood.

"Not really, it's just that there is something that confuses me, so I want to ask you for advice."

"It's normal for foreigners to borrow money. You know that my family also has a bank. Those businessmen from Britain, France and the United States are not all rich. On the contrary, most of them are poor white people who come to Shanghai to pan for gold. This country can't borrow money, so my bank has these poor white people borrowing money almost every day. But it's strange, no Japanese people have borrowed money yet? Not a single one." Yan Xiaohui was a little confused and slowed down Driving speed.

"Are all the Japanese in Shanghai rich? They have never been short of money?" Lu Ming continued to ask.

He really doesn't know much about the situation of foreigners in Shanghai, after all, he seldom deals with these foreigners.

"That's not true. Japanese men are different from European and American men. They are too poor to eat. They would rather sell their wives and daughters than borrow money from others." Yan Xiaohui said with a look of disdain, obviously Look down on the stubbornness of Japanese men.

Lu Ming nodded, of course he knew that not only in the Japanese Concession, but also in the public concession, there are many Japanese engaged in pornography, all of them are Japanese women, and most of the patrons here are Chinese men, in the name of appreciating exotic customs.

"Where are those impoverished Japanese wanderers?" Lu Ming asked again.

"Oh, those people are hired by others. You see, they seem to be poor. In fact, they are not short of money, but their employers are very mysterious..." Yan Xiaohui stopped suddenly, not wanting to Let's go on.

"There's something mysterious about it, isn't it the Black Dragon Society?" Lu Ming thought it was time to pierce the paper on the window.

"It's not that simple. The Black Dragon Society is like the Qinghong Gang. It combines the three religions and the nine streams. There are indeed many ronin in it, but not all ronin belong to the Black Dragon Society. The identity of some ronin's employers is unknown. The Manchuria Railway Company also employs ronin as thugs." Yan Xiaohui explained.

Lu Ming nodded, not only the Japanese hire ronin, some Europeans and Americans also like to hire Japanese ronin to do some shady things.

Along the way, Yan Xiaohui talked a lot, but Lu Ming seemed to see a new world. Although it was also in Shanghai, it was a world he was not familiar with.

After entering the Xingchen Cafe opened by Yan Xiaohui's family, the two changed the topic tacitly, no longer talking about the original topic, but chatting about the interesting things about each other's study abroad.

After drinking the coffee, as usual, no one came up to collect the money, Lu Ming said a little embarrassed: "How about I invite you to eat Western food, there is a very good French restaurant in the French Concession."

"It's a lie to invite me to dinner, you still want to talk to me, right?" Yan Xiaohui laughed.

Lu Ming was a little embarrassed and said: "Uh, really not, I just think that talking to you is better than reading for ten years, so I should express my gratitude."

"Okay, then seriously consider what I told you." Yan Xiaohui said mischievously.

Of course Lu Ming knew what Yan Xiaohui was referring to, the focus was on how to position the relationship between the two of them.

"Don't tease you, let's forget about today, I owe it first, I have to help my father with something." Yan Xiaohui laughed.

"You are the eldest lady, do you still need to be busy with your family's affairs?" Lu Ming responded casually.

"A more important Japanese is coming to Shanghai, and my father plans to hold a grand welcome reception for him, and I have to help Zhang Luo." Yan Xiaohui seemed to be intentional or unintentional.

"What important Japanese?" Lu Ming's ears pricked up, he was a little allergic to the word Japanese now.

"I heard from my father that Shigemoto Honjo, the commander of the Japanese Kwantung Army, came to Shanghai for a tour."

"He is a senior official of the Japanese military. How can your family deal with the Japanese military?"

"You don't know about this. Japan is different from China. The business world and the military are inextricably linked. By the way, you will also come to your house for a sit-down. Don't you want to know more about the Japanese?" Yan Xiaohui sent out an invitation.

"Okay, I will definitely come when the time comes." Lu Ming felt very sudden, and also had some doubts about Yan's family.
