After Shi Ran left the "Koufuju", he followed the carriage of Liu Yunyan's family all the way. Although he was walking and the other party was in a car, but fortunately, it was the end of the New Year at this time, both the poor and the rich would come out to buy New Year's goods, and there were many pedestrians and vehicles on the street.

Liu Yunyan's carriage stops and stops on the cross street of Lu County, and she and her husband get out of the carriage from time to time and go into different shops to buy things for the Chinese New Year. In this way, although it added some trouble to Shi Ran's tracking, he had to often find cover to avoid being discovered. But it also allowed Shi Ran to have more opportunities to observe Liu Yunyan's husband, so as to have a preliminary perception and understanding of him.

To say that with Liu Yunyan's appearance, temperament and wisdom, it is natural that there should be a handsome, dashing, shrewd and capable husband with a huge amount of money to match him. And her current husband is probably unqualified in all aspects except for some family assets. For one, this guy is not tall, at most he is a medium height, but he has a dark face, coupled with a long beard with sideburns and cheeks, although the clothes on his body are relatively luxurious, but how do you look like a robber who robbed a house and washed his identity and entered the city to become a halfway monk. Second, Liu Yunyan's husband, as a man and a man dressed as a businessman, did not say a word when he entered the store to buy all kinds of New Year's goods. Not only do they not care about the quality of the things, they don't care about the price, but they usually don't even enter the door of the store, or just stand on the side of the carriage and wait for their wife to come into the store to buy, or they don't even get out of the car, and leave all the things that should be done by their own wife to deal with others, without the spirit of the head of the family.

Such a completely different scene from his imagination made Shi Ran very puzzled, and he even began to wonder if this guy was Liu Yunyan's husband, and whether his identity was really a wealthy local businessman as judged before. Could it be that he is just an imposter found by Liu Yunyan or the "Qingyuan" brothers? Or is it to hide people's eyes and ears and pretend to be her husband's bodyguards and guards? After all, whether it is Shi Ran or Director Liu, it can be seen that this person and those two family members are all martial arts practitioners. can be said to be a personal bodyguard and guard, the posture of the superior person he showed in front of the two family members, as well as his affection and love for Liu Yunyan and the little boy, are from the heart, and there is no element of pretentiousness and performance in it. And, though he had always tried to maintain an unkeeping, unhurried, unangry appearance, if he looked closely, he would find that he inadvertently looked down on the simple methods used by the shopkeepers and men to deal with his wife, and the shrewdness and wisdom that radiated from his eyes. All this made Shi Ran more and more puzzled and confused, and he became a little big for a while.

Fortunately, this state full of question marks did not last too long, as Liu Yunyan's family finished buying New Year's goods, drove the carriage away from the bustling street, and turned into a relatively secluded street next to the main road, which was not wide and had relatively few pedestrians, Shi Ran immediately adjusted his mentality, put the previous questions behind, and stared closely at the movement of the carriage Liu Yunyan was riding. However, in order to prevent the people in the carriage from discovering his traces, Shi Ran did not follow the carriage directly into the street, but pretended to be a thirsty pedestrian, and went directly into a tea shop on the main road that was facing the secluded alley, while pretending to ask the tea shop guys about the price of tea, while peeking at Liu Yunyan's carriage - fortunately, this secluded alley is not too long, Shi Ran can see the exit on the other side of the alley unhindered in the tea shop, and accurately grasp the movement of Liu Yunyan's carriage, so as to catch up as soon as possible after it drives out of the alley. …,

However, Shi Ran's preparations were obviously a little redundant, because Liu Yunyan's carriage stopped in front of a black lacquered gate not far from the tea shop in the secluded alley, and Liu Yunyan, Liu Yunyan's strange husband, Liu Yunyan's young son, and the accompanying maid and family furniture all got out of the car and walked in together. The carriage must have been hired, and after waiting for Liu Yunyan and his party to get out of the car and move the New Year's goods they bought on the cart into the black lacquer gate, they continued to move forward with a shout from the handlebars, leaving the alley - it seems that the house behind the black lacquer gate is Liu Yunyan's residence.

It is said that after discovering Liu Yunyan's whereabouts, Shi Ran immediately returned to Zhang's mansion and reported to Zhang Yan. But he had a little more heart at this time, and he didn't leave immediately, but asked the guy in the tea shop for a pot of tea, and sat on a seat in the tea shop with a panoramic view of the opposite street and alley, drinking tea while staring at the black lacquered door that Liu Yunyan and the others entered.

In Shi Ran's opinion, although he has discovered Liu Yunyan's whereabouts, but one, the so-called "three holes of cunning rabbits", who knows if this will be just a fake target deliberately arranged by the cunning Liu Yunyan, she and her so-called family members came here just to spread suspicions and confuse possible trackers, but her real hiding place is somewhere else; Second, Shi Ran also wanted to carefully observe the surrounding situation and try to understand the details of the other residents around Liu Yunyan's house, so that after confirming that this is indeed Liu Yunyan's residence, he can formulate a more detailed jihua based on this to ensure that the action of punishing or arresting Liu Yunyan is foolproof; Third, Liu Yunyan's husband is really a little strange, and Shi Ran also wants to wait until it is dark and in the dead of night to get close to the mansion to investigate carefully, so as to be able to learn more about Liu Yunyan's husband, so as not to cause some unnecessary trouble when his side arrests or punishes Liu Yunyan - after all, the first priority of going north this time is to establish a foothold in the Beiping army, not to arrest the traitor Liu Yunyan.

Facts have proved that Shi Ran's decision is very wise. Just as he was drinking tea, chatting with his buddies with a partner, listening attentively to what other tea customers in the tea shop were talking about, sifting out useful information from it, and always paying attention to the movement of the mansion that Liu Yunyan entered not far away, the black lacquered door of the mansion suddenly reopened after closing for nearly a meal. Seeing this scene, Shi Ran, who had previously suspected that this was just a fake target set by Liu Yunyan, suddenly came to his senses, and his eyes were staring at the black lacquered gate, for fear of missing any of the situation.

However, to Shi Ran's disappointment, it was not Liu Yunyan and her family who came out of the black lacquered gate, but three subordinates dressed as family members. After the three men got out of the gate, they looked left and right, and one of them walked towards the exit on the other side of the alley. In a short time, a half-used carriage that was much worse than the previous one, which was a little less luxurious than the previous one, and which looked a little simple and even shabby, came in from the entrance on the other side of the alley, and walked slowly towards the black-painted gate.

Seeing that it was just three family members going out to run errands, Shi Ran didn't take it seriously at first, just peeked at it, and continued to drink his own tea. But the hand holding the teacup hadn't yet brought the tea to his mouth, but Shi Ran suddenly felt that something was wrong, as if he had missed something. After careful consideration, it turned out that among the two ladies who were waiting for the carriage to come, the man of medium height, wearing the small green coat hat that the ladies usually wear, with a turmeric face, a short beard, and a small piece of plaster on his right temple, was somewhat familiar. pondered carefully, and then looked at the family not far away, but found that the shrewdness and wisdom revealed in his eyes when observing the situation on both sides of the street were exactly the same as Liu Yunyan's husband full of question marks before. The figure, facial contours, and hard-to-replicate eyes made Shi Ran conclude that the man dressed as a family member was Liu Yunyan's husband.

is obviously the head of the family and a rich man with a lot of money, but he wants to change his appearance and go out in such a picture of a family, such a strange behavior, coupled with all kinds of strange performances when he went to the street to buy with Liu Yunyan before, Shi Ran became more and more puzzled by the various actions of Liu Yunyan, the so-called husband, and his interest in him became higher and higher. As a result, he decisively gave up his plan to continue to monitor Liu Yunyan's residence to prevent the other party from doing the "cunning rabbit three holes" strategy. After Liu Yunyan's so-called husband and another family member got into the carriage and drove out of the secluded street, they immediately settled the tea money and quietly followed.
