Chapter Eighty-Five: A Chance Encounter
After arriving on the first floor, he casually said a reason to send away the shopkeeper who was still idle, and after throwing a piece of broken silver to the shopkeeper, Xia Fan went straight out of the 'Fenglin Night'.
Meeting the woman was an unexpected bonus, but the overheard content must not be wasted, and he always had to find some opportunities to benefit himself.
Since the Liu family has a strong interest in the medicine tripod, he can't let the medicine tripod fall into the hands of the Liu family.
The other party wants to steal the medicine tripod tomorrow night...... At this point in time, he could have done something about it!
Regarding the matter of several elders of the Council of Elders and Xia Junkai in contact with the Liu family, Xia Fan knew.
Yesterday afternoon and into the evening, Xia Ya told him a lot of things about this.
Summoned all the blood servants together for a full two and a half months of closed training, although it made the Xia family's defense force unprecedentedly empty, but Xia Ya also took advantage of this opportunity to carry out some inducements!
Mediocre people always choose to complain when faced with some bad situations, while smart people will look for opportunities to take advantage of the situation, and Xia Ya is undoubtedly such a person.
As the Council of Elders began to put pressure on the Blood Servants over the sudden closure of the Bloods, Xia Ya secretly began to redeploy the family's defenses while showing great toughness.
Due to the lack of manpower, there is naturally a difference in emphasis, and Xia Ya took advantage of this difference to successfully secretly monitor Xia Wuxing and Xia Wuxian's actions!
And the two people who have been monitored by the key have extended to Xia Junkai.
It can be said that in the past two and a half months, Xia Wuxing, Xia Wuxian, and Xia Junkai all thought that Xia Ya knew nothing about what they did because of the changes in the family, but in fact, none of what they did escaped Xia Ya's eyes.
This also made Xia Fan admire his father very much, in the last life, in the years he lived in the family, all the attention was on women, but he really didn't expect his father to be such a wise person.
While thinking, Xia Fan had already moved to the outside of a dilapidated mansion, and after making sure that there was no one around, his body jumped up very lightly and jumped in from outside the courtyard wall.
Although the black hand killer did not say in detail, Xia Fan still found the secret door in this dilapidated mansion with great ease with his extreme understanding of the black hand, and entered a dark room dedicated to the black hand organization.
Inside, there are dozens of nightwear suits of different specifications, as well as various other gadgets that may be used on assassination missions.
After a careful inspection, it was determined that this was the most basic and ordinary stronghold of a mafia organization, without any extra superfluous things, Xia Fan didn't bother to continue wasting time, according to the code words said by the killer, he turned around and closed the secret door again, and then put a letter written in code language in the study of the house, and then came to the door of the dilapidated house and carved a not-so-conspicuous symbol on the root of the wall.
Due to the nature of the killer itself, the killers of the Black Hand organization do not meet with the personnel who maintain the mail route, and this completely one-line connection also provides convenience for Xia Fan's disguise, as long as this contact is successfully completed, it means that his idea is completely successful, and there will be no worries in the short term.
After doing this, Xia Fan followed the path of the house and re-entered the main road.
Originally, according to his expectations in the morning, after dealing with the matter of the Black Hand Organization's stronghold, he was going to go to Xia Junkai to go around, thinking that his eldest brother should have had a very difficult time recently, so he must be more depressed emotionally.
In this state, pretending to be crazy and stupid stimulates the other party, I am afraid that I can get a lot of useful information from this big brother.
However, after meeting the woman by chance and overhearing the matter about Yaoding, Xia Fan changed his mind, since Xia Wuxian had made a decision, he should soon go with Xia Wuxing and Xia Junkai to explain.
At this time, if you go to Xia Junkai, it is very likely that you will startle the snake in advance, and if it will affect the other party's suspicion, so that the time of action will be changed, it will not be beautiful.
Although this probability is not large, Xia Fan does not want to take risks after all.
After what has happened during this period of time, I think Xia Junkai's opinion of him has changed to a certain extent, right?
"Xia Fan, why are you here?"
Just as Xia Fan was on the main road and stood in the middle of the road a little dazed for a while, a clear voice came from behind him.
Xia Fan turned his head and found that Yang Liu was sitting in the sedan chair, opened the sedan curtain, and poked his head out to look at him.
And next to the willow sedan chair, there were two other sedan chairs that also stopped, and the people inside also followed the willow and opened their respective sedan curtains.
It was two young men.
Xia Fan didn't have much impression of these two people, but he felt that he should have seen them, but because of the age, his memory had become very vague.
"Huh? It's such a coincidence, I didn't expect to be idle and bored, and I ran out to go shopping, and I could actually meet Miss Er, where is Miss Second going? ”
Without thinking too much about it, Xia Fan greeted Yang Liu with a smile and asked.
"Shopping? You? ”
Yang Liu was a little stunned and looked at Xia Fan's empty appearance left and right.
As her palanquin stopped, the surrounding pedestrians had already automatically moved out of the way, the sedan chair of the City Lord's Mansion had a special badge, and the ordinary people of Qingyang City did not dare to stay too much around the sedan chair of the City Lord's Mansion.
So even with Xia Fan, the vicinity suddenly became empty.
"When the second young master of your Xia family went out shopping, not only did he not sit in a sedan chair, but he didn't even bring an entourage? It's not your style. ”
Yang Liu said in a mocking tone.
"The second lady said this, as if I was some kind of gentleman who likes pomp and circumstance. And you always praise me like this, I really deserve it. ”
Xia Fan said embarrassedly.
Dude? Aren't you! And what are you so shy! How did I compliment you!
Xia Fan's reaction made Yang Liu couldn't help but roll his eyes, and kept shouting in his heart, but he had to pay attention to his image outside, so that he didn't dare to really shout.
The tutor of the City Lord's Mansion is very strict, although Yang Liu has been regarded as the pearl of the palm by the city lord since she was a child, and she has always grown up in the environment of the stars and the moon, which makes her character very selfish and arrogant, but at least in public, she can still maintain the demeanor that she should have as the second lady of the City Lord's Mansion.
It's just that the price to pay for maintaining this kind of demeanor often makes Yang Liu very unhappy.
"Second Miss, it's about to be time to make an appointment with Scholar Chen, let's go first, don't be late because of such a loser, it won't look good with Scholar."
One of the young men in the other two sedan chairs suddenly spoke, glancing at Xia Fan with a very disdainful look as he spoke.
Yang Liu, who was staring at Xia Fan angrily, heard this man's words, and when he heard this man's words, he had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he couldn't help but look at Xia Fan and smiled evilly: "Xia Ershao, it's okay for you to hang out here, why don't you go to Scholar Chen's house with us to sit down?" ”
