Chapter 98 Return to the city
didn't expect this tailor to be so difficult to make an appointment, Ye Mu could only nod and set off with Jiang Tong.
This time, only Jiang Tong accompanied Ye Mu, and Luo Baiyan went home on vacation to accompany his daughter.
The two of them were familiar with the road, and drove directly to the door of the clothing store last time, and Ye Mu was stopped directly as soon as he got out of the car.
"Excuse me, could you please wait a minute. A man with gold-rimmed glasses called out to Ye Mu.
"Who are you and what are you doing?" Before Ye Mu could speak, Jiang Tong took a step forward and stopped in front of him.
The man with glasses saw that Jiang Tong's face was full of vigilance, and immediately explained with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, I'm a scout of Xingtong Company, and this time I just want to talk to the gentleman behind you." ”
"Scout?" Jiang Tong was very surprised, and looked back at Ye Mu.
"Why are you looking for me?" Ye Mu asked directly.
"Actually, I saw your photo on the Internet and came here to wait for you. The scout smiled and continued: "Two days ago, you came here to buy clothes, and you were photographed by a fan of Sjieming and posted the photo on the Internet. Your photos have been reposted wildly on the Internet and have made entertainment headlines, and many people have said that they want to invite you to make your debut. ”
Ye Mu recalled that the last time he came, he did meet a little star, and he was hidden by the snow because he offended Jiang Tong, but he didn't expect to be photographed at that time and spread it on the Internet.
The scout saw that Ye Mu didn't react, and immediately said: "Sir, I've been squatting here, no, I've been waiting for you for a few days, just to see you, I sincerely want to invite you to join our company, can you give me a chance to have a good chat?"
"Do you want to invite me to debut as an artist?" Ye Mu asked, he didn't expect that he would be approached by a talent scout one day.
"Yes, this is my business card, our Xingtong company is very influential in the industry, your image is outstanding, if we package it for you again, it will definitely be a big hit. The scout handed out his business card and began to recommend it diligently.
Out of politeness, Ye Mu reached out and took the business card, but he refused: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in being a star." ”
"Sir, you don't have to be in a hurry to refuse, you can think about it after you go back, my phone number is on the business card, if you change your mind, you can contact me at any time. The scout laughed.
"Hmm. Ye Mu nodded, but he smiled in his heart, he didn't expect to encounter such a small episode.
After the scout saw Ye Mu put away the business card, he didn't bother anymore and turned to leave.
Jiang Tong said with a smile: "Sir, you are really amazing, you can make headlines if you take a few photos and post them on the Internet." ”
"It was just a bit exaggerated that day, and if you clean it up, it's also very photogenic. Ye Mu looked at Jiang Tong and smiled.
"Don't you think about acting in a movie and playing with tickets?" Jiang Tong encouraged.
Ye Mu's mind was on finding out who was behind the five elders, where did he have the leisure to be an artist, he smiled and asked back: "You said that Chu Tianran is also very good-looking, didn't he think about acting in a movie and playing with tickets?"
"Of course he won't act in movies, how can he do the entertainment industry with his identity. Jiang Tong said bluntly.
Ye Mu smiled, and sure enough, Jiang Tong still couldn't speak.
"That's it, I see that you are still very interested in acting career, and I will recommend you to the scout when I have the opportunity. Ye Mu said.
"Me?"
Jiang Tong didn't expect that he would be burned, he really wanted to give himself a mouthful, but he actually forgot that Ye Mu was the most unprovoked big demon king, he had been rectified several times, and he still didn't have a long memory!
"Mr. Chu, I'm joking, don't take it seriously, let's hurry up and make clothes. Jiang Tong snorted and hurriedly led Ye Mu forward.
"Hehe, I'm not kidding, maybe I will have a chance in the future. Ye Mu looked at Jiang Tong's expression and felt funny in his heart.
When Jiang Tong heard this, he immediately said, "Mr. Chu, don't make fun of me. ”
Ye Mu smiled noncommittally, which made Jiang Tong's heart furious.
The two walked into the clothing store, and it was still the boss who came to receive them in person last time, and led Ye Mu into a specially tailored private room.
......
At this time, the Chu family, in the courtyard of the five elders.
There were four people standing at a table, and the five elders sat behind the table, looking at one of the men and a woman, and said, "You guys have been keeping an eye on Chu Lan for the past few days, it's inconvenient for us to start in the family, but once he leaves the family, there will be more opportunities." ”
"Yes, Elder, I found out that he and Jiang Tong left the family today. One of them replied.
"Where did you go?"
"Back to Elder, we don't know. ”
"When he comes back and continues to star, sooner or later he will leave the family and go to City B, it won't be too long. The Fifth Elder said.
"Yes. "Two people bowed down.
"Go down first. ”
The fifth elder asked a man and a woman to leave, turned to look at the other two and said, "What do you two think?"
One of these two is Liu Gu, and the other is Wang Hongce.
Liu Gu was the first to speak: "Elder, I definitely can't swallow this breath, leave the task of killing Chu Lan to me, as long as he leaves the family, I will immediately find an opportunity to do it, there are rules in the challenge that restrict me, but now there are none!"
"Yes, Elder, this kid Chu Lan is clever and takes advantage of us in the challenge, and we must not let him go!" Wang Hongce also gritted his teeth.
"The strength of the two of you is fine, but don't leave a handle, as long as there is no evidence, even if Chu Tianran knows that you did it, there is nothing to say. The Fifth Elder said.
"It's the elder, we will definitely let him not see anyone alive and dead. Liu Gu said fiercely.
"This kid is hiding very deeply, before I asked the steward to send Jiang Jiahe to kill him, but the old fox disappeared by himself, so you must not be careless, I heard that there is also a helper named Tsui Hark next to him, and the dragon sees the head but not the end. The Fifth Elder said with some unease.
"Elder don't worry, we must be careful this time, and find the opportunity for him to be alone before making a move. Wang Hongce bent down and said.
"You'd better be careful, don't capsize in the gutter!"
"Yes. The two spoke in unison.
......
It was almost 3 o'clock when Ye Mu measured his clothes and returned to the family, he went out without lunch, he was already a little hungry, he wanted to ask Chu Tianran if he had any food, but Chu Tianran had something to deal with and was not at home.
Ye Mu could only come to the kitchen by himself, ready to find some food to satisfy his stomach.
As soon as he approached the kitchen, he noticed that someone was talking inside.
"I don't know when Chu Lan will leave, we have to find a way to find out. A deep male voice said.
"Don't worry, they always talk about it when they eat, I'm on duty for dinner today, and I'll know when I hear it. A female voice replied.
"Okay, tell me when you know, and I'll go and get back to the five elders. ”
"Well, you can go back to your own work first. ”
When the footsteps came, Ye Mu immediately hid, and he saw a mediocre-looking middle-aged man leaving with two bags of garbage, and then walked out of a young woman, wearing an apron for cooking.
Are they the eyeliner of the five elders?
It seems that he really provoked the five elders, and he can't wait to kill himself, so he sends people to keep an eye on him all the time, just waiting for him to leave the family before he can do it.
Ye Mu thought about the means that the five elders might use as he looked for something to eat in the refrigerator.
Although he knew that the Fifth Elder would definitely make a move, Ye Mu also planned to leave the Chu family's land as soon as possible, he had to go back to Gucheng first, tell Lin Jiale the latest situation here, and ask him to inform Lin Shulai so that he could observe the movements of the Second Elder.
He'll need to be careful all the time, but it's also a good thing for him, because the killer sent may be able to give him experience again.
In the evening, Chu Tianran returned to his residence.
He went directly to Ye Mu's room and knocked on the door, ready to call him for dinner.
"Ye Mu, I'm back. ”
Chu Tianran said loudly while knocking.
"Click"
Ye Mu opened the door and said to Chu Tianran: "You come in first, I have something to tell you." ”
"What's the matter, let's talk while eating while we go downstairs to eat. Chu Tianran said with a smile.
"Let's talk in my room, there are a lot of people waiting downstairs. ”
"Whatever you are afraid of, they are all your own people, and those who can come into my yard to serve are all cleaned. Chu Tianran said confidently.
"Are you sure?"
Ye Mu looked at Chu Tianran with a smile.
"Of course...... Wait, you ask this, Mo Fei, what did you find?" Chu Tianran was also a smart person, and he knew that there was something wrong when he saw Ye Mu's expression.
Ye Mu nodded and told him what he had seen and heard in the afternoon.
"Is there such a thing?" Chu Tianran looked a little angry, he walked into Ye Mu's room, closed the door and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter, you can live here with peace of mind for the next two days." ”
"No, I just want to tell you that I'm leaving the family tomorrow and going back to Gucheng. Ye Mu shook his head and said.
"Tomorrow, why, knowing that the Fifth Elder is being watched by decent people, you still leave at this time?" Chu Tianran frowned and asked.
"The matter of going to City B to take office should be sooner rather than later, otherwise there will be many dreams at night, and it is difficult to guarantee that the fifth elder will not come up with any countermeasures to delay, so I will go to Gucheng as soon as possible to hand it over. Also, I have an assistant there who needs me to pick him up. Ye Mu said.
"What is there to hand over to that small task point in Gucheng, even if it is a little lively because of the discovery of the ruins, but we all know about the ruins, it is just a conspiracy of the five elders. ”
Chu Tianran paused for a moment and continued: "As for your assistant, I can just send someone to pick him up, and you don't need to go there in person." ”
In fact, Ye Mu's main purpose when he returned to Gucheng was to contact Lin Shulai, but it was inconvenient to tell Chu Tianran about this, Ye Mu could only talk about the fat man, "You also know that before I came to L City, the mission point in Gucheng had just been attacked by dark fire, so I asked my assistant to find a place to hide, and told him that if I didn't go to find it myself, no one would believe it." ”
"In this case, then I'll send a few more people back with you, and in case of an attack, you can take care of it. Chu Tianran said.
"No, I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning, you just have to give me a car, and no one will know that I'm leaving. Ye Mu put forward his own ideas.
"Okay, when I go to the restaurant for dinner, I'll say you're going to leave in three days and go straight to City B. Chu Tianran nodded.
Speaking of going to City B to take office, Ye Mu remembered the task point and asked, "By the way, how is the new mission point in City B?"
"Don't worry, the land has been bought from the developer, and the demolition will continue as usual, leaving only the café. Chu Tianran said with a smile.
"Well, the eldest young master is efficient. Ye Mu complimented casually.
"It's not easy to do things because I don't have money, so I offered the developer 5 times the price, and they agreed without hesitation. "Chu Tianran can be said to be a representative of the inhumanity of the trench.
Ye Mu smiled and said to him, "I'm afraid this is the most expensive task point of the Chu family, right?"
"That's for whom, the most expensive thing should be given to the best person, and you are naturally worthy of this task. Chu Tianran smiled and patted Ye Mu's shoulder.
The two talked a few more words, and then went downstairs to dinner.
The conversation between the banquets was naturally a good discussion, and it was all told to the woman.
Early the next morning, Ye Mu drove the car that Chu Tianran had prepared for him and quietly left the Chu family.
After more than ten hours of driving, Ye Mu finally returned to Gucheng.
He didn't go to the fat man first, but drove directly to the steamed bun shop, which was dark at night and was not open.
Ye Mu went around to the back and knocked on the door, but no one responded for a long time.
He simply climbed over the wall and went into the courtyard, looked left and right, and found nothing unusual.
However, it was as if there was no one in the room, quietly.
Ye Mu walked lightly and slowly approached the door.
"Click"
The door was unlocked, and the leaf curtain turned the handle and the door opened.
How can you leave without locking the door?
Ye Mu directly activated his ability, and two wooden spears appeared in the air, slowly floating into the house, and he himself followed.
The room was empty, only a piece of furniture, but there were no more materials for making buns, and the cabinets were empty.
How do you feel like you've moved away?
Ye Mu was puzzled, searched every room, and finally found a clue on the mirror in the toilet.
He vaguely noticed that the mirror in the toilet was a little dirty, as if it was done on purpose.
"Ha~"
Ye Mu sighed at the mirror, and a mist gradually rose on it, and then he saw some handwriting appear.
"My family told me to go back, and I'll contact you again if I have something. ”
The word "music" was also written in the inscription.
Coming home?
Ye Mu was a little speechless, even if you go home, leave a contact information, just let you contact me, what if I have something to contact you?
Lin Shulai is very disciplined in doing things, it is impossible to call Lin Jiale and his son away for no reason, what must have happened?
Ye Mu thought about it in his heart, and decided to ask him when he saw Chu Tianran again to see what the Ye family had done recently.
After leaving the bun shop, Ye Mu went directly to the fat man, he looked at the backpack on the seat, there were three precious Pei Yuan Dan, which were ready to be given to the fat man, and he would be a surprise when the time came.
On the way to the orphanage, Ye Mu kept thinking about the various performances of the five elders, and it seemed that he just wanted to compete with Chu Tianran for the inheritance of the family, but why would he listen to other people's orders with the second elder of the Ye family.
With their status and status, who can call them to make the two of them do things willingly, and most importantly, the Cui family is also involved, who is behind it?
Ye Mu thought for a long time, but he didn't have a clue, so he could only wait for the five elders to be knocked down and find out from his mouth, he raised his eyes and looked at it, he was already close to the orphanage.
I heard the fat man say that he lived in an unfinished building next to the orphanage, and Ye Mu had never been here.
He parked his car and came down to check.
However, it was already dark, and there was no light around, even with the vision of the leaf curtain ability, he began to search along the path, but after ten minutes, he still couldn't find a place.
I was in a hurry when I left, and I didn't ask the fat man's address, I wanted to surprise him, but now I can only call and ask.
"Toot ~"
The call was picked up instantly.
"Fatty, where do you live, I've come back from L City and I'm about to look for you. ”
As soon as the other end of the phone heard that it was Ye Mu, a voice of surprise immediately came, and there was a kind of hope in despair, "Boss, help, someone wants to arrest me, it's 500 meters east of the orphanage, come quickly!"
"What's going on? You find a place to hide first, don't hang up the phone. Ye Mu looked for the direction as he spoke, and immediately ran quickly when he saw the east.
"I don't know who it is, I heard him ask people about me, he didn't look like a good person, I turned off the lights and hid under the bed in the house, and he couldn't catch it for a while...... Let go, don't lift my bed, don't pull my legs, ah......"
The fat man on the other end of the phone started screaming as he spoke, and then the phone was disconnected.
"Fatty, Liu Dafu?" Ye Mu shouted a few times into the phone, but there was already a busy sound of hanging the line over there.
Oh no, the fat man was caught!
Ye Mu sped up again, and when he encountered the bungalow, he ran directly from the roof, and he had already seen the unfinished building that the fat man said.
The building was only three floors, barely a building, and it was no wonder that the leaf curtain had never been found.
There are a few windows in the three-story low building that are lit up the fat man on the phone just now didn t say how many floors it was on the phone if ye mu looked for them one by one he didn t know how long it would take so he simply opened his throat and yelled.
"It's on fire, run!"
After Ye Mu finished shouting, he saw the lights in the rooms in the building lit up one after another, and then there was the sound of hula and crowd running.
Unexpectedly, so many people lived in a small unfinished building, but every room was occupied, and he found that there were still three houses without lights.
didn't have time to think about it, Ye Mu directly entered the room through the window outside the building, there was no one in the first two rooms, only one on the third floor was left, and the fat man was probably inside.
"It's on fire, big brother, let's run for our lives first. ”
Ye Mu heard the fat man's voice coming.
"Shut up, as long as you answer my questions truthfully, I will naturally not hurt you. ”
A hoarse male voice said.
"Whatever you want to ask, I'll say, I'll say!" said the fat man.
"I ask you, did you work at the coffee shop on Sanshi Road last week?" the man asked.
Ye Mu had already planned to rush in, but as soon as he heard this person's question, he immediately stopped again.
It seems that this person is coming for himself, and he won't hurt the fat man for a while, so he just listens to what he wants to ask.
"I'm here. The fat man replied truthfully.
"Do you know what's going on in that fire at the coffee shop?"
