Part 9: The Battle for Seoul, Chapter 2 [Unexpected] (3)
Part 9 Seoul Contest Chapter 2 [Unexpected] (Three)
Xiao Yu drove the car intently, and from time to time he noticed whether there were any followers in the rearview mirror. Shunji's pretty face was always hidden in the darkness. Her face had been hot since she got in the car. She secretly looked at Xiao Yu from the corner of her eyes. This hateful guy actually took advantage of the danger to peek at me...
Xiao Yu suddenly laughed, and Shunji glared at him with the most fierce look he thought he was: "Why are you laughing at?"
Xiao Yu finally stopped laughing. He patted his pocket, where the money he had just won from the casino: "I'll treat you to a meal!"
Shunji said angrily: "Don't think that I will forgive you!"
Xiao Yu asked her back and said, "What are you forgiven me? Do I have anything to do to be sorry for you?"
"But you just peeked..." Shunji blushed.
Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows as if nothing had happened: "Are you referring to that matter? But I didn't see it!"
Shunji grabbed Xiao Yu's ear: "How could you know if you didn't look at it... it was... black..."
Xiao Yu laughed loudly, and he said angrily: "I swear to the sky, I guess..."
Shunji hung her head down in shame, but thought in her heart that only the genius would believe you, a cunning guy.
Xiao Yu drove to a North Korean dog meat restaurant. As early as in China, he heard that North Koreans had a special liking for dog meat. When he got here, he realized that it was indeed worthy of his reputation.
This small store was already full of customers, and the owner temporarily set up more than a dozen tables in the open space outside the door. Xiao Yu and Sun Ji found a seat and just sat down, Park Eun-po called. He heard his tone and seemed to have made some major discoveries.
Soon-ji told Park Eun-po about their current location and hung up the phone.
Xiao Yu hurriedly ordered all the wine and food. Park Eun-po came and saw the table full of wine and food. I wonder what it would be like to feel distressed.
Park Eun-po and Huo Yuan arrived here after twenty minutes. Huo Yuan looked at the table full of sumptuous food, his eyes shone. He grabbed a dog's leg without hesitation and chewed it up: "I've eaten cold Korean noodles for a day. Finally, I can see some meat!"
Park Enpo sighed: "We can catch up with the living expenses of domestic farmers in one month before this meal!"
Xiao Yu quickly explained: "This is what I won back from the casino. If you don't eat it, don't eat it!"
When Park Enpu heard Xiao Yu say this, he also grabbed a dog leg and started eating. Huo Yuan looked at him in amazement: "You will be the farmers' food for one day if you take this chew!"
Park Eun-po smiled and said, "Xiao Yu said that he would treat him tonight!"
Huo Yuan shook his head: "I'm convinced and seduced, you kid are pretending to be stupid!"
Shunji avoided Xiao Yu's gaze all night and secretly smiled from time to time. Huo Yuan saw it and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "This child is finished, and he has not escaped from Xiao Yu's claws.
Park Eun-po was only thinking about the investigation today when he ate and drank. He wiped his mouth with a tissue: "Lee Xunhyun's wife is recuperating in the Seoul 'Menren' Hospital. Since she was hospitalized, Lee Xunhyun has been taking care of her alone. Lee Ji-hyun and her younger brother Lee Chang-soo have never appeared."
Huo Yuan added: "We went to Li Changxiu's school to ask, and he took a leave of absence a month ago. Strangely, even his father handled the procedures for taking a leave of absence!"
Xiao Yu quickly grasped the key to the problem: "Do you suspect that Li Changxiu's disappearance have other hidden information?"
Huo Yuan nodded, and he looked at Shunji: "According to your understanding, what is the relationship between Lee Ji-hyun and your brother?" Shunji seemed a little confused: "Before this, I always thought that she had a deep relationship with her brother, otherwise she would not choose to stay in North Korea alone."
Xiao Yu said: "It seems that Lee Ji-hyun may have been threatened in some way. Maybe her younger brother fell into the hands of someone else..." Xiao Yu paused for a moment and said: "Of course all this is our guess. If you want to solve the mystery of this matter, we must first find Lee Ji-hyun himself. There is an old Chinese saying: If you solve the bell, you need to tie the bell. If you find her, you can find out Jin Xuri's whereabouts!"
Xiao Yu told the two of them what He Shunji had encountered just now. Everyone thought that their whereabouts had been exposed and that the "Sea Shrine" would not stop chasing them. The most critical link now is Lee Ji-hyun. They must seize the time and lure her out.
"Tomorrow you will continue to follow Lee Hung-hyun. Sun Ji and I will find time to visit Lee Ji-hyun's mother! But before that, we will find a place to stay again. It is best for everyone to act separately and contact us by phone immediately if there is any situation."
Last night's pursuit of the "Sea Shrine" made Xiao Yu suddenly realize that Seoul, which seemed to be calm on the surface, was actually full of dangers. He intuitively felt that the other party's real purpose was to put himself to death. There was something he never understood why Toshiki Kamachi had such a great hatred for him. Although Xiao Yu didn't know what kind of relationship was between Toshiki Kamachi and Mieko, the bloody storm in Japan last time was undoubtedly caused by the two of them.
Xiao Yu had already guessed that since their group landed at Seoul Incheon Airport, their every move has been under the strict surveillance of the "Sea Shrine", and their actions in Seoul will become even more difficult in the future.
After Xiao Yu and Shunji were convinced that Li Xunhyun left the Minren Hospital, they arrived at the hospital as soon as possible. Visiting the patients was not a difficult thing for them to do.
Shunji specially bought a bouquet of flowers, hoping to influence Mrs. Li, whom she had never met before.
Before entering the ward, Xiao Yu had already asked about Mrs. Li's condition in advance. She had lung cancer and was now in advanced stages and was undergoing chemotherapy.
When the two met Mrs. Li, she was quietly admiring a pot of orchids at the window. From her eyes, she did not find the depressedness and despair common to terminally ill patients, but more of an indescribable sadness.
Although Xiao Yu and Shunji had never seen her before, they knew in their hearts that her sorrow was definitely not for themselves.
Shunji politely shouted in Korean: "Mrs. Lee!"
Mrs. Li slowly turned around. She was too focused when she was watching the flowers just now and didn't notice the appearance of these two young people.
She smiled gently: "I'm sorry... I don't seem to know two of you..."
Shunji did not hide her intention: "I am from the north and was once Sister Zhixian's best friend!"
There was an insignificant twitch on Mrs. Li's lips, and her eyes turned to the window: "I... haven't seen her for a long time!"
Xiao Yu took the flowers from Shunji's hand and put them in the vase at the head of the bed.
Mrs. Li said slowly: "The life of flowers is short, but people still have to take away her freedom and satisfy their needs. What a cruel thing..."
Shunji came to Mrs. Li: "My brother was kidnapped, and Sister Zhixian participated in the whole thing!"
Mrs. Li looked at Shunji indifferently: "I don't know your brother, nor do I care about what my daughter has done before!"
Shunji's beautiful eyes were filled with tears: "But do you know? My brother and Sister Zhixian were so in love with each other. I never believe that Sister Zhixian would hurt someone she loved deeply. You can't care what she has done, but you can't watch your daughter in pain but remain indifferent!"
Mrs. Li's eyes were slightly red, and her eyes were still staring at the orchid.
There were rapid footsteps outside the door, and an angry voice shouted: "Who asked you to come? Who allowed you to torture the fragile nerves of a terminally ill patient?" Li Xunxuan appeared in front of the ward. He roared and rushed to Shunji. Xiao Yu blocked Shunji, for fear that he would hurt Shunji in an impulse.
Mrs. Li suddenly spoke: "Xunxuan... don't blame them!" She coughed violently, and Li Xunxuan looked at his wife pitifully, and he held his wife and slowly lay on the bed.
Lee Xun-hyun said angrily: "You better go out by yourself before I call the police!"
Mrs. Li gasped for a while before saying to Shunji: "You stay..."
She held Lee Hung Hyun's hand with tears in her eyes: "Xun Hyun... I was the one who harmed her daughter..." Lee Hung Hyun held his wife's skinny hands hard: "Stop talking..."
"I want to say..." Mrs. Li bowed to Shunji, and Shunji hurriedly stepped forward to support her: "Mrs. Li...What are you doing?"
"On behalf of Ji Hyun, I apologize to you!"
"The one who should apologize is Jin Changjie!" Li Xunxuan said loudly, staring at Shunji: "If I'm not wrong, you are Jin Changjie's daughter, right?"
Shunji nodded.
"Do you know why I escaped from North Korea back then? It's because your father is determined to deal with me and wants to kill me. If I don't leave North Korea, my family will be killed by him!" Lee Xun-hyun was full of anger.
Mrs. Li cried and said, "Stop talking... It's been so long..."
"Do you know why I want to leave Ji Hyun in North Korea? That's because I'm afraid your father is suspicious. If he sees that I want my whole family to escape together, we can't escape!"
Shunji obviously didn't understand what Lee Hung Hyun said: "But my dad...why did he harm you...if that...why did he still take care of Sister Ji Hyun?"
Lee Xunxuan sneered: "What is he doing? In order to take credit for himself, to continuously improve the military rank on his shoulders, and to geometrically double the deposit numbers in foreign banks!"
Shunji said angrily: "You are not allowed to insult my dad!"
Lee Xunxuan smiled disdainfully: "He is not worthy of my insults. What I regret the most is that I did not take my daughter away and let her so much suffering and torture bear such a young shoulder!"
Mrs. Li started crying loudly.
Because they always talked in Korean, Xiao Yu just listened to it and couldn't get into the conversation at all.
He quietly pulled Lashunji: "Translation of my words to them!" Shunji nodded.
