C58 (2/2)

Zhang Shaowu rested his chin on his hand and thought: ”Un, I've heard that Shuo Yue has a unique temperament, she is very silent and expressionless, and likes to wear black. I think if we were to see him, we would definitely be able to recognize him.”

Hearing Zhang Shaowu's words, we decided to search around Lingyin Temple. There were a lot of tourists and pilgrims in the Lingyin Temple, and no matter who we look for, it wouldn't be obvious.

Having made up our minds, the three of us decided to split up in order to save time. In the end, we would meet at the Great Hall in the center.

He silently walked two rounds around Lingyin Temple's guestroom. Most of the guestrooms had guests or guests, but I couldn't just knock on every door and see. If Shuo Yue was really here, he would probably come out to eat when it was time for dinner, right? I can always stay outside, can't I?

However, there were a lot of mosquitoes in this place. In just a short while, he had bitten quite a few bags, causing him to itch to death. In the end, after dinner, he didn't see anyone suspicious. On the contrary, he was extremely hungry.

Patting her slightly numb legs, I decided to find something to fill my stomach first.

I heard that the plain noodles here are especially delicious, so I ordered a bowl and sat by the side and quietly ate it. I guessed that Zhang Shaowu would come and find me when he's hungry.

I had only taken two bites when I noticed a person walking in from the entrance of the cafeteria. He was dressed in a black suit that was out of place with the other pilgrims. In such a hot weather, he would usually wear a light shirt with short sleeves. Moreover, this person's expression was gloomy, in stark contrast to the people who came to play or burn incense nearby.

As I pretended to eat, I observed the mysterious man in black closely. I saw him whisper something to the little Shamil in the dining hall. He took some food and left the dining hall. I immediately threw down my half-eaten noodles and followed him.

If my senses are right, this mysterious black clothed man should be Shuo Yue.

The man in black didn't move very quickly, so I could just follow quietly behind him. There were a lot of people along the way, but he didn't notice me. Finally, he entered a guest room in a secluded courtyard and closed the door behind him.

I locked onto a guest room and called Zhang Shaowu and Zhang Ziyuan to inform them of my location. When they heard that I had found someone who looked very similar to Shuo Yue, they were also surprised, and said that they would quickly come and meet up with me.

After observing for a while, the tightly shut door stopped moving. I was getting impatient from waiting. I'd like to knock on the door and see what's going on inside. He first asked if that person was Shuo Yue, if he was willing to cooperate with us.

Just as my mind was wandering, Zhang Shaowu and Zhang Ziyuan arrived one after the other. I explained the situation to them and planned to discuss the next step of the plan.

”My opinion is that the three of us should openly talk to him. Since there's nothing wrong with him, at least give both of us a chance to communicate.” Zhang Shaowu's opinion is about the same as mine.

”I think we should observe first. According to what my wife said, I'm afraid Shuo Yue isn't alone. There should be someone else in his room, so if it's inconvenient for him to show her face, Shuo Yue would probably bring the item over to his room. We might as well find out what's going on before we make a move. ” But Zhang Ziyuan had a different point of view.

An idea popped into my head and I said, ”How about this? I'll pretend that I found the wrong person and test him. I'll see how he reacts before I think about it. ”

Zhang Ziyuan's skill of protecting his wife came into play again. ”But my wife, if he's really as perverted and violent as the rumors say, what if she trespasses into his room by mistake? What would he do to me?”

”Aiya, I don't think so. At the very least, this is the Temple of Hidden Spirits. It won't be so easy for him to do anything to me.” I made a gesture of placing my hands together towards Zhang Ziyuan.

Zhang Shaowu agreed to my proposal: ”I think that's possible, at least this place should be safe. Zhang Ziyuan and I will be watching from the side, if there's anything else, we can help immediately.”

After discussing the countermeasures, I tidied up my messy clothes and hair, cleared my throat, and knocked on the door of the mysterious black clothed man's room.

”Dong, dong, dong!” My heart is pounding and my heart is thumping.

Only after knocking about four or five times did the door slowly open. As expected, it was the mysterious black-clothed man who revealed his true face: a very handsome face, about forty to fifty years old, with a vicissitudes of life, with eyes that could not hide the sadness and loneliness in them. Could it be that he was the unforgivable traitor, Shuo Yue?

”Miss, who are you looking for?” His voice was cold, without the slightest emotion, as if the people and matters of the outside world had nothing to do with him.

All of a sudden, the lines that I had thought of were disrupted by panic. ”Right, sorry, Mr. White, is this the main guest room? I'm here to see Mr. White. ”

He could clearly see that Shuo Yue's brows were tightly knitted, as if he was a little angry: ”Miss, you seem to have found the wrong room.”

”Ah, I, I, am sorry! There are too many guest rooms here. I'm a little lost, how uninteresting! ” While apologizing, I used my peripheral vision to scan the room to see who else was there. Sure enough, there was someone lying on the bed in the room opposite the door. The face of that person was indistinct, but I could hear her cough. But shouldn't a sick man go to the hospital? What if I don't get treatment here? With a strange thought running through his mind, the mysterious man in black closed the door heavily.
