Mo Sheng spoke softly, "It’s already starting to get dark outside."
Mo Yunchen looked toward Mo Sheng and said in a calm voice, "Right away."
Mo Sheng knew Master Mo was anxious, and even the slightest hope would not be given up by Master Mo; the moment there was news, he would set off immediately.
"Yes." Knowing he couldn’t persuade him otherwise, Mo Sheng had no choice but to make arrangements.
In the seaside area of Hai City, there was a row of small houses where fishermen from Hai City lived, making a living by fishing.
An honest man was about to turn off the light and go to bed when he suddenly heard the roaring sound of a car outside, as if it had stopped at his doorstep.
"Husband, what’s going on?" His wife, drowsy with sleep, opened her eyes and looked toward the window.
"It’s nothing, I’ll go take a look, you go back to sleep."
The man, who was none other than Chen Ming, the eldest brother who had saved Feng Bai, put on his shoes, walked out, and opened the front door. He saw several cars parked outside, their lights turned on and shining on his small house, causing him to blink uncomfortably. He raised his hand to shield his forehead and looked toward the vehicles parked at the door.
About a dozen men in black swiftly descended from the cars, and a tall and slender man stepped down from the lead luxury car. Because the light shone in Chen Ming’s eyes, he could not clearly see the face of the man who had alighted until they stood in front of him.
"Who... Who are you looking for?"
"Your name is Chen Ming, right?"
Chen Ming was startled and nodded his head. Who were these people, and why had they come to their house with so many people? Could it be that his younger brother, Chen Jin, had gotten into trouble again?
"Half a month ago, did you rescue a girl in the waters near Kun City?" Mo Sheng stepped forward and asked.
Chen Ming nodded; he indeed had rescued a girl half a month ago. His younger brother, Chen Hai, had sent her away. Perhaps these people were the girl’s relatives who had found their way here?
"I did rescue one, but she’s already been taken to the police station by my youngest brother."
"According to the information we’ve gathered, it seems your youngest brother did not take the girl to the police station."
"What... What?" Chen Ming’s face changed, "No... That’s not possible."
At around nine o’clock at night, there were only a few sparse lights on in the small houses of Hai City. A man with a decent appearance, who looked rather shrewd, swayed while singing as he walked toward his own home. In the darkness of the night, he didn’t notice the many vehicles parked outside his front door.
The youngest brother, Chen Hai, staggered to the front door of Chen Ming’s house. Their three brothers’ homes were adjacent to each other. Today, he had won a substantial amount of money from gambling and had excitedly drunk a bit too much.
"Big brother, big brother, burp." Chen Hai, burping, walked to Chen Ming’s house, intending to share some of his winnings with Chen Ming and his second brother, Chen Jin.
Just as he arrived at Chen Ming’s front door, Chen Hai noticed the crowd, squinted his drunken eyes, and saw Chen Ming and Chen Jin surrounded by a group of men in black. The somewhat drunken Chen Hai suddenly sobered up a great deal.
"Who... Who are you, and what are you doing at my big brother’s doorstep?"
He had been winning money lately, so they definitely weren’t debt collectors. Both his big brother and his second brother were honest men and were unlikely to offend anyone. Who were these people?
"Third brother, tell me, where did you take that girl the last time?" Seeing his brother return, Chen Ming walked up and quietly questioned his brother, Chen Hai.
The awakened Chen Jin also came forward. These people were saying his little brother had not actually taken the girl to the police station, so where had his little brother taken the girl?
Recalling how his youngest brother had suddenly given both him and big brother Chen Ming ten thousand each a while ago, he felt a little strange. At that time, Chen Hai said he had won the money, and neither he nor his big brother gave it much thought. But now, upon reflection, could it be that Chen Hai had done something?
Chen Hai completely sobered up from the alcohol, his heart drumming, "What... What girl, big brother? You’re confusing me with what you’re saying."
"It’s the girl we rescued in the waters near Kun City last time. Didn’t you say you took her to the police station?" Chen Ming asked gravely, and Chen Hai was startled. Could his big brother have learned something? Impossible, only he himself knew, his big brother couldn’t possibly know.
"Yes, of course I took her to the police station. Big brother, second brother, why aren’t you sleeping this late at night, coming here to question me? Don’t you trust me?"
Chen Ming and Chen Jin hesitated, their third brother seemed so composed, could these people be mistaken?
Mo Sheng stepped forward with a cold laugh, "You are Chen Hai?"
Chen Hai was taken aback, looking at the tall, imposing man before him and then at the several stern, cold-faced men in black standing behind him. Who were these people, and what did they want?
