All the members of the Heavenly King Palace will be present at tonight's banquet. Hasn't Tianming been on standby backstage?

How could he not see me at this time?

"No one in the control room. I asked other people present, and they all said they had never seen Tianming."

"Waste!" Fang Yu pushed the man angrily and ran towards the control room.

Pushing open the door, the small, enclosed room was empty except for a computer and a workbench.

Not to mention the person who is destined to be there, you can’t even find a single hair.

"Find him for me! How could a good person disappear? Contact him! Even if you have to turn the entire venue upside down, you must find him!" Fang Yu roared at his men.

Tianming disappeared at this time. Could it be that he also betrayed himself?

Fang Yu didn't dare to think about it any further.

For some reason, a sense of foreboding arose in my heart.

His intuition told him that these might not be coincidences. First, Zheng Huahe disobeyed orders, and now Tianming disappeared...

"You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you're dead."

Fang Yu coldly issued an ultimatum.

After meeting and conversing with Master Qian, Zheng Huahe retreated to a safe location. To avoid arousing Fang Yu's suspicion, Master Qian installed him in his own room. Fang Yu's men were busy searching for the missing Tianming, and with Master Qian's status in Kyoto and his cover, few would consider his intentions. Zheng Huahe sipped tea in Master Qian's room, his brow furrowed, his uneasiness lingering.

He wasn't sure if his decision was right, didn't know the consequences of disobeying Fang Yu's orders, and wasn't sure if siding with Li Hao was wise. Zheng Huahe felt a mixture of emotions, like the tea in his mouth tasted bitter instead of sweet, and he couldn't express his suffering.

"Mr. Qian, can you please tell me straight...

Zheng Huahe was a little confused by this scene.

Why does it feel like everyone's feet are tangled together?

A single movement affected the entire body. The Flying Tiger Night Banquet was like an empty shell, as if it was being pushed and noisily deviated from its direction. Zheng Huahe couldn't understand what was going on.

"Drink some tea, and you'll understand soon!"

Mr. Qian spoke in a decisive tone, looking relaxed and contented.

No matter who wins the fight, what he wants will always be returned to him. What he wants is what's in that mysterious suitcase, and that's enough! After Mr. Qian said this, Zheng Huahe was too embarrassed to ask any more questions, but frowned even more. At this moment, the door opened.

Zheng Huahe was startled and looked towards the door in a hurry.

This sight made him both shocked and anxious.

“Mr. Li…”

He never expected that the first person to come in would be Li Hao.

Li Hao smiled at him and nodded.

"Mr. Zheng, don't be anxious."

Zheng Huahe must have had a thousand questions in his mind, but Li Hao wasn't in a hurry to answer them. He waved his hand and told him to relax. Old Qian smiled at Li Hao, his eyes full of meaning.

"Li Hao is here, I'll leave this place to you. I have something else to do, so I'll go first."

Before leaving, Mr. Qian took a special look at Li Hao, as if reminding him intentionally or unintentionally that what he asked for had been done, and hoped that he could also fulfill his promise and not forget what he had promised him.

"Do not worry!"

Li Hao turned his head and said softly.

"Haha! The young are so formidable!"

Mr. Qian laughed out loud twice in the room, walked out of the room, and turned over the "Do Not Disturb" sign.

“Mr. Li…”

Facing Li Hao, Zheng Huahe frowned, not knowing how to start.

He was the one who was grateful in the past, but now he has to obey Fang Yu's orders to deal with him. With all the grievances and grudges, Zheng Huahe felt full of guilt even if Li Hao didn't say it.

"Mr. Li, I was confused for a moment about what happened today..."

He hesitated to speak, but in the end he had to give an explanation.

However, before Zheng Huahe could say his apology, Li Hao's hand had already pointed to the side.

This……

His room!

There is a chilling corpse inside. What does it mean?

This is not just a simple warning, it is clearly a naked threat.

Threat!

In other words, it is an order that cannot be turned back!

Zheng Huahe was greatly shocked.

This kind of shock was no less than the blow he felt when he learned his son Zheng Xinan was dying. "This..."

Zheng Huahe's voice trembled and he couldn't speak.

Fear spread from the heart to the limbs.

His legs and feet felt a little weak, and he finally had to hold on to the wall.

Li Hao could see every move and every subtle expression of Zheng Huahe.

As he expected, Zheng Huahe unconsciously followed his script.

"Mr. Zheng."

Li Hao spoke at the right time.

"Mr. Li, this is my fault. It has nothing to do with you."

Zheng Huahe knew that he had gotten into trouble and it would be difficult to escape.

Li Hao smiled lightly.

"You're being too polite. If I didn't want to get involved, I wouldn't have gotten involved in Mr. Zheng's affairs. Mr. Zheng, to be honest, I know something."

"I'm afraid it's not a secret to you. The poison in your body is exactly the same as the poison in this corpse!" Zheng Huahe raised his head in surprise, as if he couldn't believe it.

"This is real?"

"Absolutely true. What else could possibly torture someone like this, other than the methods of the Heavenly King Palace?"

Taboo...

A chill involuntarily rose from the bottom of my heart.

Taboo...

Upgraded version?

Thinking of the doctor's previous call, Zheng Huahe understood.

If he could be so cruel to Zheng Xinan, why would he show mercy to himself?

After all, he is just a pawn!

Fang Yu, you threaten me like this just because I didn't help you get rid of Li Hao?

Or, even if I obey your orders and help you get rid of Li Hao, the result will be the same? Zheng Huahe's last doubts disappeared.

Before, there was deep suspicion, but now, there is a determination to turn against us!

"Mr. Li, why are you helping me?"

"I didn't help you."

"I just... don't like it when people take it too far!"

If he wanted to suppress Fang Yu and completely bring him down, he had to set up a trap like this and force Fang Yu to jump in.

"Thank you!"

Zheng Huahe was moved to tears.

This was the second time Zheng Huahe thanked Li Hao willingly.

Looking around the capital, there are only a handful of people whom he truly admires and is grateful to.

Li Hao is one of them.

"You're welcome. I wonder what your plans are? You've offended someone you shouldn't have offended, so it's better to make plans as soon as possible."

These words are both a comfort and an advice.

After leaving Zheng Huahe, Fang Yu became a lonely man.

In order to make Fang Yu deserted by his friends and relatives, the first step is to alienate his relationship with Zheng Huahe.

More importantly, it is to prepare for subsequent actions.

"Actually, I, Zheng, am only doing something for others. Those grudges have nothing to do with me. Now I don't plan to get involved anymore. I won't participate in anything that happens at the Flying Tiger Banquet!" Zheng Huahe said resolutely.

Draw a clear line with Fang Yu.

"Mr. Li, you are a chivalrous man with a heart of justice. I know you must be disgusted by the actions of certain people, so you are helping them."
