Chapter 159 Return to the Summer Palace
Chapter 159 Return to the Summer Palace
The explosive news caused by the fake Chuxiong swept the whole world in an instant.
What was originally a simple revelation was discovered to hide a dark side of the world that was not well known to people. Moreover, this side had been growing rampantly under everyone's noses for many years.
Many anomalies that I had not paid attention to in the past could now be found out from them.
The huge panic left many people at a loss.
More people, unafraid of warnings from the government and the alliance, unanimously petitioned for a thorough investigation of the incident and the "Six-Petal Lotus" organization.
"Give the world the truth!"
Under the private instigation of the True Light Newspaper, people shouted unified slogans and began to march with banners in various cities.
Regardless of whether people were rich or poor, former nobles or slaves, they gathered together and took to the streets.
"We need the truth!"
Public discussion!
one day.
Two days.
Chu Yin watched things gradually build to a climax.
According to the information she received, the "Six-petal Lotus" organization has quietly closed many bases. She tracked the information from the South City base to several similar places and quickly analyzed one of the opponent's lair.
Chu Yin did not alert the enemy, she wanted to see how the other party would fight back.
Judging from the current public opinion situation, many people in the alliance who are related to this organization are about to be exposed.
"Miss, the people from the Six-petal Lotus organization still haven't come out to say anything."
Secretary Zhao reported the situation. They had created a lot of momentum on the Internet, but no effective results had been achieved.
"Is the other party going to play dumb forever?"
Secretary Zhao didn’t know how powerful that organization was, but someone who could make Chu Yin treat him so carefully must not be a simple person.
Chu Yin didn't say anything. She reached out and fiddled with the tablet in her hand, carefully looking through the information on the Internet.
The hot topics discussed by people revolved around the several directions determined by Chu Yin and others, and they had a preliminary understanding of the evil power of this organization.
But this is not enough.
Chu Yin realized that many people's initial fear turned into curiosity and yearning for the "Six-petal Lotus" organization after a while.
That’s right, many people saw the direction to strive for. If they could establish a relationship with this organization, wouldn’t they have a chance to gain immortality, not to mention perhaps super powers?
They don’t immediately recognize the risks to themselves, but instead see the benefits because this is a way of thinking that has been formed over a long period of time.
Chu Yin shook her head slowly.
"Don't worry, has the crackdown on Los Angeles businesses changed?"
Secretary Zhao was stunned for a moment, then said, "Yes, I have to report this to you, Miss. In just two days, those who had been making all kinds of excuses came back to us and said they wanted to continue the cooperation."
"Some people have completely left Luoluo City, but more people have come who are optimistic about Luoluo City. I asked someone and they said they are optimistic about the future of Luoluo City."
Thinking of something, Secretary Zhao found something on the other side of the video and held it up to show Chu Yin: "Miss, this is a mysterious package we received. Inside is a notebook that I can't understand."
Seeing the mysterious yet familiar handwriting in the notebook that Secretary Zhao opened, Chu Yin stood up in surprise.
"Where did you get it from?"
"There is no address, but we have tested it. The marks left on the outer packaging have the unique fungi of the True Light Forest."
Chu Yin narrowed her eyes and thought of something.
"Keep the things and scan a copy of the contents for me."
Secretary Zhao acted quickly. Chu Yin looked at the documents sent by the other party with great interest. There were no more than thirty pages in total.
The mysterious text is incomprehensible, but there is a record at the very beginning with a date from more than two hundred years ago.
Most importantly, in the lower right corner, Chu Yin discovered a deformed word "Xia".
The obscure traces could easily be overlooked if one did not look carefully, mainly because Chu Yin had seen these traces in the information given by Elder Xia.
Is this the symbol of the Xia family?
Chu Yin couldn't help but think so, especially when she saw the date from two hundred years ago, her mind was full of imagination.
Not long ago, on Lingtai Island, Elder Xia was forced to appear, but she hinted some important information to Chu Yin.
At this moment, Chu Yin thought of the garden play and couldn't help but think about it a few more times.
Is it such a coincidence?
Having doubts, Chu Yin no longer hesitated and contacted the other party directly.
Although Chu Yin did not state her purpose, Elder Xia on the other end could still hear her excitement.
She didn't want to agree at first, but when she heard Chu Yin say that she had something important about her, she hesitated for a moment and had to agree to meet.
The location was still the Summer Palace. Chu Yin had been here before and was familiar with the route and layout.
With Elder Xia's instructions, Chu Yin didn't need to wait and was allowed to enter the Xia Palace and go to the top floor.
This time, Elder Xia prepared tea and snacks and waited.
Seeing the other party's serious look, Chu Yin laughed heartily for the first time in front of her: "Hahaha. It seems that you are looking forward to what I bring."
Elder Xia rolled her eyes inadvertently. After getting a little familiar with Chu Yin, she had become accustomed to Chu Yin's impoliteness, or rather, his unconventional manner.
"Where's the stuff?"
Chu Yin had just finished drinking her tea when Elder Xia couldn't wait to ask.
Chu Yin paused, slowly put down the teacup, and stared intently at the woman opposite him. After so long, Chu Yin already knew her approximate age, but seeing that she was still young and beautiful, he found it a little hard to believe.
"You have to answer me a question first."
Elder Xia was silent.
She knew that Chu Yin would not give her anything for no reason. Chu Yin smiled slightly, knowing that the other party meant to agree.
"The last time you took me to see the Yuan Opera, was it related to your family?"
Elder Xia was stunned, as if he had not expected Chu Yin to be so direct.
She subconsciously wanted to refute, but Chu Yin didn't give her a chance and continued, "I know, it's not just to avoid the pair of intimidating eyes behind me. I later checked the Yuan Opera you took me to see, and there are many unknown legends."
"What did you find?"
Elder Xia thought Chu Yin was just making guesses based on rumors.
"I didn't find anything, but I discovered a detail that many people didn't notice. Combined with what I found today, I was able to confirm your identity right away."
When talking about identity, Chu Yin stared at Elder Xia closely.
As expected, the other party's eyes were a little evasive, but under the pressure of Chu Yin's stare, Elder Xia tried his best to pretend to be calm, but his momentary breathing disorder was still caught by Chu Yin.
"Hahaha, you admitted it."
Chu Yin slammed her hand on the table, causing two teacups filled with tea to bounce up and down, with the tea spilling out wantonly.
Neither of them paid any attention to this scene.
