After Ye Wanru heard that Wang Ma had finished talking about her family affairs in tears, she gave her a few days off.

After listening to Ye Wanru's story, Lu Yang's heart skipped a beat. Oh no, something happened.

The first thing he thought of was Qinglan and the baby in her belly.

"Qinglan, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" Lu Yang asked nervously.

Qinglan shook his head and said, "I'm fine, what's wrong?"

"That's good, that's good." Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I was just asking, asking."

Although Lu Yang said that everything was fine, he began to be alert in his heart.

He knew that this was definitely not an accident. Someone must be secretly plotting and wanted to kill him.

"Could it be the Japanese?" The sinister and cunning face of the left corner emerged in Lu Yang's mind.

"No, I have to strengthen the defenses at home and can't let this happen again." Lu Yang thought secretly in his heart.

Lu Yang immediately called Xiao Wu and asked him to mobilize 10 smart and capable students from the martial arts school to take turns on duty 24 hours a day to protect the safety of him, Qinglan, Ye Wanru and Li Wenjuan.

The basement of the house was reinforced to prevent enemy grenade attacks.

After arranging matters at home, Lu Yang began to investigate the death of Wang Ma's husband from poisoning.

Lu Yang first went to find Wang Ma and asked her in detail what had happened.

"Auntie Wang, think about it carefully. Apart from buying fish from that middle-aged man that day, did you come into contact with any other suspicious people or things?" Lu Yang asked.

Aunt Wang thought about it carefully, then shook her head and said, "No, sir, I just went to the market to buy vegetables that day. I didn't come into contact with any suspicious people or things."

"Think about it carefully. This concerns the life safety of Qinglan, me and others. It is very important." Lu Yang said.

"Sir, I really didn't lie to you. I really didn't come into contact with any suspicious people or things that day," Wang Ma said. "I swear, if I lied, may the heavens strike me with lightning and I die a miserable death!"

Seeing that Wang Ma didn't seem to be lying, Lu Yang decided to go to the vegetable market in person to see if he could find any clues.

…………

The next morning, Lu Yang came to the vegetable market where Wang Ma bought vegetables.

He disguised himself as a middle-aged man with a big beard and wandered around the vegetable market, observing the surrounding situation.

Lu Yang quickly found the fish stall that Wang Ma mentioned, but there was no one there.

Lu Yang walked to the stall next door and asked the owner about the situation.

"Hello, boss. I want to ask about someone. You know, the fishmonger. Why didn't he come today?" Lu Yang asked.

"You mean Lao Zhang? He had something to do at home today, so he didn't come." The owner of the stall next door said, "Are you looking for fish? I have some here too, and they're very fresh."

"Oh, no thanks, I'm just asking." Lu Yang said, "By the way, Boss, do you know where Lao Zhang lives?"

"Lao Zhang, he lives..." The owner of the stall next door was about to tell Lao Zhang's address, but suddenly, he seemed to remember something, so he quickly closed his mouth and said, "Excuse me, sir, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I'll be leaving now. You can take your time shopping."

The owner of the stall next door left in a hurry after saying this.

Lu Yang looked at the back of the owner of the stall next door as he left, and became even more confused.

"This boss must know something, but why won't he tell me?" Lu Yang thought to himself, "It seems like this matter is getting more and more complicated."

Lu Yang decided to go find Wang Ma and ask her for clarification.

…………

When Lu Yang returned home, he immediately called Wang Ma to the study.

"Auntie Wang, let me ask you, are you sure that the man who sold you fish that day was a middle-aged man?" Lu Yang asked.

"Yes, sir, I am sure that the man who sold fish to me that day was a middle-aged man. He also said that he was Lao Zhang's brother. Lao Zhang had something going on at home, so he came to sell fish for Lao Zhang." Aunt Wang said.

"Lao Zhang's brother?" Lu Yang frowned and said, "Have you ever seen that man at Lao Zhang's place?"

"Well...well..." Wang Ma stammered, "I don't know either, sir. This is the first time I've seen him, too."

"Auntie Wang, are you sure you didn't remember it wrongly?" Lu Yang asked.

"Sir, I really don't remember it wrongly. I'm sure that the middle-aged man was the one who sold me fish that day," said Aunt Wang.

Lu Yang looked at Wang Ma and saw that she didn't seem to be lying, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay, you can go down."

"Yes, sir." Aunt Wang agreed, and then she left the study.

Lu Yang sat in the chair, lost in thought.

"It seems that I have to go to Old Zhang's house in person to find out the truth of the matter." Lu Yang thought secretly in his heart.

Old Zhang's family lives in a shantytown in the south of the city. The house is dilapidated and you can tell at a glance that Old Zhang's family is not rich.

Lu Yang knocked on the door, but no one answered. He knocked a little harder, but still no one answered.

Lu Yang's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.

He kicked the door open and a foul smell hit him in the face.

Lu Yang covered his nose and walked into the room, only to see Lao Zhang and his wife both hanging from the beams, their bodies already beginning to rot.

Lu Yang checked and found that Lao Zhang and his wife were both strangled to death.

"It seems that this matter is indeed not simple." Lu Yang thought secretly in his heart.

Lu Yang knew that the most urgent task now was to find the murderer, otherwise, more people would be harmed.

…………

After Lu Yang left Lao Zhang's house, he decided to find Ma Biao and ask him if there were any suspicious people appearing in Xiangcheng recently.

Military Control Commission Xiangcheng Station.

Ma Biao was in his office, drinking tea and reading the newspaper, living a very carefree life.

Ever since the last time Lu Yang brought people from Tianwei Martial Arts School to block him at the door of Chen's house, he has become even more wary of Lu Yang.

Now, he can be said to be keeping his distance from Lu Yang, avoiding him whenever possible.

But today, he couldn't hide because Lu Yang came.

"Stationmaster Ma, how are you?" Lu Yang said as he walked into Ma Biao's office with a smile.

Ma Biao was startled when he saw Lu Yang. He quickly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and said with a nod: "Lu, Director Lu, why are you here? Please sit down, please sit down."

As Ma Biao spoke, he quickly moved a chair for Lu Yang and poured tea.

"Stationmaster Ma, you're welcome. I just came here to sit down." Lu Yang said with a smile, but he had no intention of sitting down at all.

Seeing that Lu Yang had no intention of sitting down, Ma Biao did not dare to sit down. He could only stand there and talk to Lu Yang.

"Stationmaster Ma, I came here this time to ask you something." Lu Yang said.

"Director Lu, if you have anything to say, just tell me. I will tell you everything I know." Ma Biao said quickly.

"It's like this, Stationmaster Ma, I want to ask you, have there been any suspicious people appearing in Xiangcheng recently?" Lu Yang asked.

"Suspicious person?" Ma Biao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Director Lu, who are you referring to?"

"For example, the Japanese." Lu Yang said.

"Japanese?" Ma Biao was stunned.

Ma Biao rolled his eyes and said, "Director Lu, Xiangcheng has been quite peaceful recently. I haven't heard of any suspicious Japanese appearing."

"Really?" Lu Yang looked at Ma Biao and said with a half-smile, "Stationmaster Ma, are you sure you didn't lie to me?"

"Director Lu, how could I dare to lie to you?" Ma Biao said quickly, "Everything I said is true."

"Really?" Lu Yang still had that half-smile on his face and said, "Well, since Stationmaster Ma doesn't know anything, forget it. I won't bother Stationmaster Ma anymore. Goodbye."

After Lu Yang finished speaking, he turned and left.

"Director Lu, take care, take care." Ma Biao said quickly. He wished that Lu Yang would leave here quickly.

Lu Yang left the Military Control Commission's Xiangcheng Station. He did not go far, but hid in the dark and observed the situation at the Military Control Commission's Xiangcheng Station.

Lu Yang knew that Ma Biao was definitely lying to him. He must know something, but he didn't dare to tell him.

Lu Yang decided to wait and see what Ma Biao was going to do.

He wants to follow Ma Biao.
