Chapter 191: Conflict of Forces
Rubbing her swollen forehead, Lin Peining temporarily threw those useless thoughts out of her mind, and now she could only pray that her subordinates could find the Jiang family's hiding place as soon as possible, and only then could they recapture the ghost seal as soon as possible.
Dangdangdang.
Just as he was thinking, there was a knock on the door suddenly, and then the white knife walked in with a heavy face.
"Miss, the matter has been investigated clearly, the ghost seal was indeed lost when we were conquest of the Xiao family, but the person who stole it was not from the Jiang family. ”
Lin Peining was stunned for a moment, looked at the white knife in surprise and said, "Who is that?"
Taking a deep breath, he paused for a long time before he continued, "It's the old man." ”
Old man?
There is only one person who can be called an old man by the Lin family.
Lin Zhenjiang!
Lin Peining's eyes widened directly, he didn't expect that Lin Zhenjiang, who had fled, would appear at this time, how could he know about the ghost seal. What is the purpose of stealing the ghost seal!
Boundless doubts filled his mind, and at this moment, Lin Peining felt that the courage on his body was even heavier.
The sun is shining, and Lin Pei Yining's face is extremely attractive, but at this moment, she is frowning. His eyes were full of worry.
"Whew!"
With a long sigh, Lin Peining waved his hand slightly and said, "You go down first, I need to be alone to be quiet." ”
To Lin Peining's surprise, the white knife did not leave.
Looking at the white knife in surprise, Lin Peining said, "Is there anything else?"
"Miss, the people above want to see you. ”
"The people up there?"
Seeing the white knife nodding, Lin Peining's brows furrowed even tighter, after all, things were developing in the direction she didn't want to see, in fact, when she announced her move to the Xiao family, the official move had already attracted her attention. Presumably, the official has also noticed that this incident is very likely to be related to the Xianmen incident twenty years ago, so they did not stop it.
Now that the people above want to see her, it proves the correctness of her conjecture, if the people above take a supportive attitude towards this matter, it is fine, but if the officials also want to intervene, the matter will be really difficult.
"Let's get ready. ”
After pondering for a long time, Lin Peining finally decided to meet with the people above, no matter what the official attitude was, this time it was inevitable.
Under the preparation of the white knife, Lin Peining quickly got into the car, looking at the scenery along the road, Lin Peining knew that this matter was beyond her control, and if Su Cen didn't come back, she could only find a chance to go to Sin City.
After all, judging from the clues left by Su Jianzhi in the secret room, Sin City is obviously inseparable from this matter.
The car soon arrived at the Yuewangge Hotel, where the official person and Lin Peining met.
It can be seen that the people who appeared this time have a very large background, and the entire Yuewangge Hotel has been surrounded by uniformed men, all of them are carrying bright guns, and more importantly, these people are obviously not ordinary guards, and the majestic murderous aura exuded from their bodies obviously proves that they are definitely people who have really seen blood.
Dozens of powerful murderous auras gathered together to form a suffocating force, and ordinary passers-by did not dare to approach at all.
After instructing Bai Dao to park the car aside, Lin Peining got out of the car directly, and Bai Dao flew to follow.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Qu only invited Miss Lin, no one else. No entry. ”
A flash of anger suddenly appeared in Bai Dao's eyes, and he was about to open his mouth but was stopped by Lin Peining.
She has heard of the name of this Mr. Qu, that is the real power, the absolute big man who is in the sky, whether it is his wrist or status, he will definitely not exceed the number of five fingers!
Lin Peining thought that she would be a real big man in person, but she didn't expect this person to be so big.
"You wait for me outside, and in addition, notify Linyuan City and let Zhou Zheng rush back to the capital immediately with all his strength. ”
The white knife frowned, but in the end, he didn't go against Lin Peining's intentions, and glanced deeply at the guard at the door before nodding.
In this regard, the guard at the door did not say anything else, but just made a gesture of invitation to Lin Peining.
Lin Peining nodded slightly, took a deep breath and walked into the hotel.
After entering the door. The number of guards had obviously more than doubled compared to the outside, and in an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Lin Peining's body, although that gaze was calm, the killing intent contained in it was genuine.
Although she was not afraid of these people, Lin Peining still frowned slightly.
The person who invited her was Mr. Qu, but it was still Mr. Qu who gave her a horse, what does this real big man want to do?
"Miss Lin, Mr. Qu is waiting for you on the top floor, please!"
The voice of the guard on the side came, Lin Peining nodded, and led by the guard to the door of the private room on the top floor.
Pushing open the huge private room, the scene inside came into view, and a man in a suit and leather shoes sat with his back to Lin Peining next to the huge round table. The man looked to be in his thirties, and at the moment he was gently shaking the red wine glass in his hand.
Obviously, this is the big man who has risen to the sky, Mr. Qu.
Without looking back, Mr. Qu said softly: "Miss Lin is here, please take a seat." ”
As Lin Peining sat down, Mr. Qu turned around slowly, his appearance was very ordinary, and he didn't even have any characteristics, it was difficult to leave a special impression. It looks like a normal person.
But Lin Peining knows that this inconspicuous Mr. Qu is not an ordinary person who can climb to today's position.
"I don't know what Mr. Qu is looking for me?"
After a moment of silence, Lin Peining said slowly.
"Since Miss Lin has already guessed, why bother asking?" Mr. Qu's voice was still flat, but his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.
Lin Peining's heart trembled, and he said tentatively: "Mr. Qu is for the Xiao family's affairs?"
"It seems that Miss Lin still doesn't believe us, let's be straight, as early as the beginning of the establishment of the Lin family, we already knew that the Lin family hid a very important thing, and that thing was the ghost seal. ”
After a pause, Mr. Qu continued: "The ghost seal has never been born, so we don't bother to care about the disputes between your forces. After all, no matter how much trouble you make, it's just some civil struggle, but just before you started the war with the Xiao family, the ghost seal was born, and immediately after. The ghost seal was stolen, right?"
Hearing this, Lin Peining's brows furrowed unusually tightly, she guessed that the official must have learned something, but she didn't expect the official to be able to find out such a deep secret.
"Miss Lin don't be surprised, after all, we have established the two organizations of rewarding good and punishing evil. Back then, we were also indirectly involved, some of the secrets, we naturally know, the reason why we have been left alone, just because the ghost seal has not appeared, but now, things are obviously beyond our expectations, the ghost seal was born and stolen by someone with a heart, obviously the real secret has been known, the real conspirator has appeared, the world is really going to change. ”
At this moment, the shock in Lin Peining's heart was beyond words, before she came, she could be sure that there would never be more than three people who knew the true secret of the Xianmen incident back then, including her, but now, she found that she was wrong, the official, had already learned about it.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Peining slowly spoke: "So, Mr. Qu is asking me about my Xingshi?"
Mr. Qu smiled. He waved his hand slightly and said: "Definitely, from beginning to end, we just want to stop this matter, even if we can't stop it, we don't want to see this matter make a big fuss, but now, it's too late, and things are moving in a worse direction far faster than we expected, to put it mildly, this time." We really can't sit still. ”
At the same time, a dark cloud has overwhelmed the city of sin.
The forces of the Reward Organization began to search for Su Cen's traces throughout the city, this time, they did not act secretly, but really searched at all costs, and even, for this reason, the Reward Organization offended too many local forces in Sin City, but its strength was not as good as that of the Reward Organization, and the one-on-one action was undoubtedly self-defeating.
That's why these local forces in Sin City have decided to take the opportunity of tonight's dinner to discuss the matter of working together against the Good Cause.
As soon as this news came out, the forces of all parties were ready to move, and without Su Lao's suppression, these people had already planned to make a big vote, and now it seems that the opportunity has come.
