Sword of the Nine Heavens, the Fall of the Gods

"Sky-diving rat?" Chengfeng was slightly stunned and couldn't help laughing.

"It's a scary name. But if you have such a powerful reputation, how did I catch you?"

A hint of embarrassment appeared on Mousewhisker's face, but it was quickly replaced by pride.

"I am not called Sky-piercing Mouse for nothing. I was just unlucky today and ran into a master like you. Normally, I come and go without a trace and never fail."

Cheng Feng smiled, "Okay! I don't doubt your ability. But you should not doubt my means. Tell me the truth, where did you hide my money?"

A flash of panic flashed across Mousewhisker's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He looked up at the "Meituan Helema" not far away.

The restaurant, which was brightly lit and bustling with activity, was now completely dark. There was no light at all, not a single person in sight, and even the door was tightly closed.

He shook his head, already knowing what happened in the restaurant today.

He knew clearly that facing a master like Cheng Feng, neither he nor the second shopkeeper could handle it, so he had to ask the eldest boss to step in.

Looking at the darkness in front of the door of "Meituan Elema", he shook his head in disappointment, turned around slowly, and said to Chengfeng: "I think you already know some things, and I don't want to say more, come with me."

Chengfeng nodded and followed Lao Shuxu.

The evening breeze was blowing, bringing a hint of coolness. I followed the mouse whiskers in the wind and shuttled through the desolate wilderness.

Here is a forgotten cemetery, lying quietly on the edge of the town, like an isolated island abandoned by time.

After passing through the cemetery, an isolated large mansion appeared in front of us.

The wall of the compound is already dilapidated, with bricks and tiles peeling off, revealing the adobe inside, showing the signs of time.

The door was closed tightly, the paint on it had long faded, and the wooden part had cracks from wind and sun, revealing a sense of vicissitudes.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chengfeng frowned slightly, his eyes full of confusion.

"Mouse, how dare you lie to me? Why did you bring me to this remote place? Didn't you say that all the money would be given to your boss?"

"Yes! My boss is in this yard." Lao Shuxu nodded quickly, looking a little nervous.

"Does your eldest brother live here?"

Chengfeng was stunned. He never expected that the boss of "Meituan Elema" would live in such a desolate and dilapidated place.

I originally thought that a famous figure who could overwhelm Zhang Douyin must live in a magnificent and majestic mansion.

However, what we saw before us were the dilapidated walls, the crumbling roof, and the weeds growing rampantly in the courtyard.

All this told him that this place had been uninhabited for a long time, not to mention that this was the residence of a big boss.

Chengfeng felt a little suspicious, his brows knitted, his eyes full of suspicion, "Lao Shu, are you sure your boss lives here?"

"He didn't lie to you, come in!"

A clear voice suddenly came from deep in the compound.

Chengfeng looked up and saw a figure slowly walking out of a half-open door.

He was a middle-aged man dressed in simple clothes, with a handsome face and calm eyes, giving people a sense of calmness.

When he saw the man, Mousebeard immediately bowed his head respectfully and said, "Boss."

"Well! You can get out now."

Situ Yifan waved at him and turned to face Chengfeng, "I will take care of my subordinates' affairs."

Chengfeng nodded, said nothing more, and focused his gaze on the person in front of him.

The big boss in front of him was dressed extremely simply, in a long plain cloth gown with patches on some parts. His clothes were even worse than those of the waiters in his restaurant.

Seeing his look, Cheng Feng was surprised and asked in confusion: "Big Boss?"

"it's me!"

Situ Yifan smiled and nodded to Chengfeng, "Welcome to my humble abode. I know you have a lot of questions, so why not come in and talk."

Chengfeng nodded slightly, his expression solemn, and followed Situ Yifan into the depths of the compound.

After crossing the courtyard, there is a very empty room in front of you.

The house was large, but inside it there was only a tattered wooden bench and a strange old bed.

The bed was a bit low and had no legs.

However, the bed surface looked very thick, as if it was a whole mattress, and should be very soft.

Situ Yifan motioned Chengfeng to sit on the stool, and then he sat on the bed.

Seeing Chengfeng's eyes attracted to his bed, he sighed softly.

"Although this Simmons mattress is a bit crude, it has served me well for many years. It is a bit worn out now, but unfortunately I have no money to repair it, so I can only make do with it for now."

Situ Yifan's words left Chengfengruzhu in a trance. What on earth is a Simmons mattress? Although he knew that he was referring to this bed.

But it is hard to understand that a big boss says he doesn't have the money to repair a bed.

This time he came to get back his stolen money, but the boss looked like he was refusing to pay back the money.

Cheng Feng's anger grew, and he tried hard to suppress the urge to explode, but since Situ Yifan looked sincere and spoke politely, he was too embarrassed to turn hostile.

Chengfeng had to suppress the unhappiness in his heart and try his best to make his tone sound calm.

"Boss, I'm not here to discuss the bed. I'm here because I need you to solve this case. I hope you can return the stolen items to me."

Situ Yifan pondered for a moment, his brows furrowed, and his face looked a little embarrassed.

"Little brother, it's not that I don't want to pay you back, I just don't have the money. You can see that I'm penniless now. Please give me some time, I will definitely pay you back when I have enough money."

Chengfeng could no longer suppress his anger. He stood up suddenly and raised his voice by several decibels.

"Boss, I respect you as a prominent figure, so I have always treated you with courtesy. But you keep shirking your responsibilities like this, which is really hard for me to believe! Do you think you can just let it go with a casual remark like 'I don't have the money to pay back'?"

Situ Yifan smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly.

"Little brother, please be patient. I have no other choice but to do this."

"You have your own reasons? Don't I have any?"

Cheng Feng said angrily, "Who in this world doesn't have their own difficulties? Just because you have your own difficulties, does that mean you don't have to pay back the money?"

"That's right little brother!"

Situ Yifan sighed: "Now that things have come to this, I will no longer hide it."

What Situ Yifan said next made Cheng Feng dumbfounded and shocked.

Future? Time travel? These words lingered in Chengfeng's mind, shocking and confusing him.

For a moment, he was stunned on the spot.
