Yunyi went to the cafeteria, picked up their main dishes, and returned to the small courtyard with Huo Jingrui. "Have you found that person’s whereabouts?" she asked.
Huo Jingrui placed the several lunchboxes on the table and nodded. "Found it. But as the saying goes, ’a cunning hare has three burrows.’ I’m afraid that place is just a temporary hideout. I’ve already had someone keep an eye on it."
Yunyi was somewhat puzzled. "Why would they go to such a remote place to pass messages?"
Huo Jingrui arranged the lunchboxes one by one. "It’s probably because that man spent most of his time active around the Agricultural Reclamation Group, so they chose that location."
After saying this, he thought of something. "That person is crucial. Whether we can dig out the most deeply hidden ’fish’ might well depend on him."
Yunyi looked at Huo Jingrui. "Do you mean that the big ’fish’ that slipped through the net before will contact him directly?"
Huo Jingrui nodded. "Yes."
After opening the lunchboxes, Huo Jingrui then asked, "What about on your end?"
Thinking back to what she had seen, Yunyi shook her head, trying to dispel the unpleasant images from her mind. "Zhong Liyuan is no good," she said. "When I went over yesterday, I found someone in her room. And that person was none other than Guo Aibing, who went to the countryside with Lun Huaijing."
Upon hearing this, Huo Jingrui frowned. "They were together?"
Yunyi nodded. "Guo Aibing must have been manipulated by Zhong Liyuan into betraying Lun Huaijing. I just don’t know if Lun Huaijing has grown suspicious. I didn’t want to startle the snake, so I figured it’s best to leave this matter to the professionals."
Huo Jingrui naturally understood Yunyi’s meaning. "Got it. I’ll arrange it as soon as I get back to the county town."
He was incredibly busy, but having just reunited with his treasure, he didn’t want her to worry, so he had made a special trip back.


Looking at these Jade Stones, an idea sparked in her mind. I’ll carve some jade ornaments later to have on hand for emergencies.
