Chapter 338 The prologue has begun

The car slowly drove away from its previous location. The two people in the car felt relieved and happy because they had finally untied the knot between them. However, in a place they couldn't see, the two people's eyes were staring at the direction where Wu Qingluan's car was leaving like torches, with deep emotions in their eyes.
"We need to move faster."
A low voice sounded, and the other one seemed a little indifferent. He just nodded lightly and said "hmm" in a very stingy tone, which was considered as an answer to the other party's words.
The other person rolled his eyes at him with a hint of disdain in his eyes, and didn't say anything more to him. When he looked up, he could no longer see Wu Qingluan and Gu Nankai's car in the traffic. The man turned around and left, and the man who spoke less quickly frowned and followed.
That night, some were happy while others were sad. Gu Nankai had no idea that the truth he had been searching for and those blank memories just began on this ordinary night.
In a small courtyard far away in the suburbs, an old man looked up at the starry sky and pondered for a long time. Beside him stood a tall middle-aged man. The dark night could not block his majestic demeanor, but if you get close to him, you will find an inch-long scar on his bronze face. The scar starts from the corner of his left eyebrow, just passes the corner of his right eye, and goes to his right earlobe. The scar looks quite old, and it is shocking to see it across his face.
The man stood quietly beside the old man, looking straight ahead, until the old man came to his senses, picked up the teacup on the low table in front of him, drank the tea in one gulp and said, "Xiaoyi, the world has changed. We have finally waited for this day."
The middle-aged man was also somewhat moved when he heard the old man's words. His eyes trembled slightly, but were soon replaced by determination and deep hatred. He also looked up at the sky that was as bright as starry sky, and soon lowered his head to respond solemnly to the old man's words: "Teacher, we have waited for many years and finally waited for this day. This time, I swear that I will not let them succeed again."
The old man sneered faintly and nodded quickly. Although he didn't say anything, the man still felt the determination emanating from him. He thought about it, and a figure appeared in his mind. He said hesitantly: "Teacher, over there... do you want us to..."
The old man seemed to know what he was talking about. He raised his arms and shook his hands, his voice sounding tired. "No, it's not time for him to know yet. I think Master Jiu should have heard the news. You can go there in the next two days so we can talk."
The man nodded quickly, and the old man sighed secretly. Soon his eyes became clear again, and he stood up and went into the house. However, the man suddenly burst into tears when he looked at his back. It was not until he saw the light in the old man's room went out that he wiped his tears and turned around to go to his own room.
The confrontation he has been waiting for for many years has finally come. This time, he will make the other party pay with blood!
The next morning, Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan arrived at the serious crime squad very early. The two people who had just cleared up their differences suddenly felt relaxed and felt full of energy to do everything. Gu Nankai even found that Wu Qingluan, who always simply packed up before going out, had put on a little makeup today. He was delighted and praised her generously, and Wu Qingluan accepted his compliment very naturally. There was no awkwardness between the two, but more tacit understanding and naturalness.
It didn't take long for Gao Yuan and Cao Cang to arrive. A few of them joked about Gao Yuan's hurried departure last night. They chatted and laughed while eating the breakfast that Cao Cang brought. After the meal, Gu Nankai quickly assigned the tasks.
"Gao Yuan, find out the addresses of the Mo family and the Zhao family. You and Cao Cang will go to the Zhao family, and Li Meng and Cao Cang will go to the Mo family to investigate. Teacher Wu and I will go to Zhao Haicheng's company to see if we can find any clues. We will act separately and then gather at the serious crime team to share clues. If there is any emergency, we will contact you at any time."
No one had any objection to this allocation, some people were even a little excited, and soon everyone left one after another.
Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan went to the foreign trade company jointly opened by Zhao Haicheng and Mo Zixin. Fortunately, Zhao Haicheng's two partners were loyal. Even after the news of Zhao Haicheng's death, the two did not take advantage of the situation, but stabilized the company first. When Gu Nankai asked about how the shares of Mo Zixin, Zhao Haicheng and Zhao Rong should be distributed in the future, the two quickly gave their answers.
It turned out that Mo Zixin and Zhao Haicheng had already made a will and had it notarized a long time ago. If either of the couple encountered an accident, their shares would be inherited by their children. Because the will did not clearly state how many children there were, it is conceivable that now all these shares can only go into Zhao Zixuan's hands.
As for Zhao Rong's shares, since they were not many, in order to protect the rights and interests of the two partners, they believed that Zhao Zixuan did not have the ability to lead the company now, so Zhao Rong's shares should be divided equally between the two of them. After all, the company was now mainly supported by the two of them.
Gu Nankai and Wu Qingluan didn't think there was anything wrong with what others said. It was good enough that these two people didn't take advantage of the situation to bully a little kid like Zhao Zixuan. They even stabilized the situation of the entire company. They could be said to be two good partners. But when they came out later, Gu Nankai felt that something was wrong.
The two of them walked out of the gate of Haicheng Foreign Trade Company together. Because Gu Nankai's hand was injured and he couldn't drive these two days, he stayed where he was and waited for Wu Qingluan to drive.
While looking at the scene on the street, Gu Nankai was thinking about everything that had just happened in the company. He was pondering secretly in his heart, but when his eyes touched a certain place, his whole body suddenly shook. At that moment, Gu Nankai felt as if he was suddenly thrown into an ice cellar. Goose bumps appeared all over his body in that instant. He looked at that place in disbelief, with shock, confusion, fear, and a hint of coldness in his eyes.
When Wu Qingluan's car slowly drove over, she saw him suddenly run out, as if he had seen something extraordinary. She had never seen Gu Nankai like this before. He looked too eager and shocked when he ran in that direction, but Wu Qingluan couldn't stop the car. She could only drive the car to a place where she could park, then hurriedly got out and chased in the direction he had just run.
But there was no sign of Gu Nankai. Wu Qingluan searched for a long time along his possible route but still couldn't find him. Gradually, from the initial curiosity, Wu Qingluan's mood had turned into worry. What on earth did Gu Nankai see that made him run away so anxiously without saying a word to her ?
Is it something related to the case?
Or, has nothing to do with the case?
Wu Qingluan's feet were sore from running, so she finally stopped and returned to the parking place. When she thought of these two possibilities, she had subconsciously chosen the second answer. She suddenly panicked and quickly drove back to the serious crime team.
Everyone had returned by now. Seeing that Wu Qingluan had returned alone, Shang Lu asked curiously, "Sister Qingluan, why did you come back alone? Where's the boss? Didn't you go out together?"
Wu Qingluan had been thinking about something, and at this moment she responded reflexively: "Why, he hasn't come back yet?"
Seeing that everyone shook their heads in confusion, Wu Qingluan frowned and began to worry about Gu Nankai's situation.
