Chapter 321 Return to the Old House
This time, Ming Nanjin decided not to let Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen take the risk with him, and let the two stay outside.
"You guys wait outside, I'll go by myself." Ming Nanjin's tone was firm and left no room for questioning.
Yan Zeyu said hurriedly: "No, it's too dangerous, how can you handle it alone?"
Jiang Shiwen also agreed: "Yes, if we are together, we can at least take care of each other."
Ming Nanjin looked at them firmly and said, "Trust me, more people will make us more conspicuous and easier to be exposed. I will be careful."
Seeing that Ming Nanjin had made up her mind, Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen no longer insisted.
Ming Nanjin sorted out his equipment, took a deep breath, turned around and walked towards the Beiming old house.
The Beiming old house looked even more eerie at night, and the surrounding trees swayed in the wind, like monsters with bared fangs and claws. Ming Nanjin approached cautiously, and avoided the patrolling guards relying on his memory from last time.
However, just as he was about to enter the old house, a figure appeared in front of him.
"Stop!" Bei Mingmo's voice rang out in the darkness, carrying a chilling chill.
Ming Nanjin's heartbeat suddenly quickened, but he quickly calmed down and looked at Bei Mingmo coldly.
Bei Mingmo walked forward and saw Ming Nanjin's face clearly in the dim light. His eyes were suddenly filled with coldness: "Lin Nan, why did you betray me?"
Ming Nanjin said coldly: "Bei Ming Mo, my last name is Ming, and my name is Ming Nanjin. You should know me."
Bei Ming Mo was slightly startled, then frowned: "Ming Nan Jin? What are you doing here?"
Ming Nanjin gritted her teeth and said, "I'm here to find the truth and the secrets you've hidden."
Bei Ming Mo sneered: "The truth? Humph, what do you think you can find from me?"
Ming Nanjin looked him straight in the eyes: "The truth about my mother, about everything that happened back then."
Bei Mingmo's face turned gloomy: "Those things are in the past, you shouldn't dwell on them anymore."
"Is it over?" Ming Nanjin said angrily, "Because of what you did, my family was shattered. How can I pretend that nothing happened!"
Bei Mingmo was silent for a moment and said, "This is their own choice."
Ming Nanjin took a step forward: "Your selfishness and greed have ruined the happiness of so many people!"
Bei Mingmo's eyes flashed with anger: "Don't think I will show mercy to you."
Ming Nanjin was not afraid: "Even if I die here today, I will make the truth known."
Just when the two were in a stalemate, the sound of footsteps was suddenly heard.
"Master, what happened?" a subordinate ran over and asked.
Bei Ming Mo waved his hand: "Catch him for me."
Several men immediately rushed towards Ming Nanjin. Ming Nanjin was agile and fought with them. But after all, he was outnumbered and gradually lost the upper hand.
At this moment, Ming Nanjin suddenly found an opportunity. He took advantage of the chaos to get rid of his subordinates and rushed into a room.
Bei Ming Mo roared: "Chase!"
Ming Nanjin was looking around the room for something useful. He found a hidden drawer and opened it, revealing some documents inside.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, Bei Mingmo and his men rushed in.
"Put your things down!" Bei Ming Mo shouted.
Ming Nanjin tightly grasped the document: "Is this the secret you don't want others to know?"
Bei Mingmo's face turned pale: "Don't force me."
Ming Nanjin laughed: "Look at you now, are you afraid of being exposed?"
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside. It turned out that Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen created the chaos in order to save Ming Nanjin.
Bei Ming Mo was distracted to check the situation outside, and Ming Nan Jin took the opportunity to rush out and meet up with Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen.
"Hurry up!" Ming Nanjin shouted.
The three of them ran desperately in the night, with the sounds of Bei Ming Mo's men chasing them behind them.
They went into an alley and hid behind a pile of debris.
"What should we do now?" Yan Zeyu asked, panting.
Ming Nanjin looked at the documents in his hand and said, "Let's find a safe place first and see if these documents are useful."
The three continued to grope forward in the darkness, looking for a way out of their predicament.
Bei Mingmo stood at the door of the old house, his face terribly gloomy: "No matter where you escape to, I will not let you go."
Ming Nanjin, Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen groped forward in the darkness. The sounds of pursuit behind them gradually faded away, but they did not dare to relax at all.
"We have to find a place to hide and study these documents carefully." Ming Nanjin said in a low voice.
Yan Zeyu panted and nodded in response: "Yes, let's see if we can find any clues that can be useful to us."
Jiang Shiwen looked around and said, "There seems to be an abandoned warehouse ahead. Let's go there first."
The three of them quietly walked towards the warehouse, pushed open the rickety door, and a stale smell hit them. The warehouse was full of miscellaneous items, and there were a few dilapidated wooden beds in the corner.
Ming Nanjin walked to a bed, sat down, and took out the document he had just received from his arms. Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen came over and carefully examined it with the weak light of the flashlight.
"What is written here?" Yan Zeyu frowned, looking confused.
Ming Nanjin carefully identified the handwriting on the document: "It seems to be some transaction records and accounts."
Jiang Shiwen's eyes lit up: "Maybe we can find something to hold against Bei Ming Mo."
They flipped through the documents page by page, and time passed quietly in the tense atmosphere.
Suddenly, Ming Nanjin stopped and fixed his eyes on a line of words: "Look here, this seems to be about the flow of funds for that incident back then."
Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen came over and studied it carefully.
"If we can follow this clue, we might be able to uncover the truth," Jiang Shiwen said.
At this moment, there was a slight noise outside. The three of them immediately became alert, holding their breath and listening to the movement outside.
"Could it be that Bei Ming Mo's people are chasing us?" Yan Zeyu clenched his fists nervously.
Ming Nanjin signaled them to keep quiet, and walked quietly to the door, looking out through the crack.
I saw a dark shadow wandering outside the warehouse, seemingly observing the situation inside.
Ming Nanjin's heart was in his throat. He turned around and gestured to Yan Zeyu and Jiang Shiwen, asking them to be prepared for any emergency.
The black shadow slowly approached the door. Ming Nanjin clenched the stick in his hand, ready to attack the moment the other party came in.
The door was slowly pushed open, and Ming Nanjin swung the stick violently.
"Don't hit me, it's me!" A familiar voice sounded.
