In the Gu family, Gu Cheng sat on a chair near the restaurant, listening silently as Wei Qiu Shuang and Lan Shu chatted about a trivial matter for half an hour without any intention of ending the conversation.

Gu Jue, on the other hand, was smiling and looking at Lan Shu with a natural expression. He patiently listened to the chat between Wei Qiu Shuang and Lan Shu without any strange behavior.

This made Gu Cheng somewhat dispel his doubts.

That phone call probably wasn't from Gu Jue.

And after he observed the reactions of Wei Qiu Shuang and his father, it seemed that they did not know that someone had instigated Gu Jue's murder in Qingyang County.

At this moment, Gu Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But the next second, the phone placed on the small table on the side of the living room suddenly started ringing...

Wei Qiu Shuang glanced sideways, but did not get up to answer the phone.

When Gu Anguo saw this, he immediately walked over, picked up the phone and put it to his ear.

"Hello, who's there?"

Lan Shu readily agreed to the kindness of her mother-in-law and her own men.

"Okay, I understand." Gu Anguo nodded and replied with a calm expression.

Gu Cheng, who was not far away, had a stiff face at this moment.

He had inquired beforehand and found out that Baldhead was a well-known gangster in Qingyang County, and he was ruthless in his attacks.

What can Gu Cheng do that cannot be forgiven by Xiaobai before Xiaobai loses his memory?

Combining the plot logic of the novel and what she now knows about the situation, all Lan Shu can think of is the murder of Xiaobai.

So much so that now it has aroused the idea of ​​​​investigating this matter in the family.

Coupled with the reminder on the phone, the whole story was quickly connected by Lan Shu——

In Qingyang County, the only thing worth investigating by the Gu family was the fact that Xiaobai had his head chopped off and thrown into the river.

This answer made Gu Cheng's face become even paler!

"In addition to the fact that the person on the phone spoke Mandarin, a gangster named Baldhead said that the other party's accent sounded familiar, but I'm not sure about the details," Cui Youdang added.

Lan Shu already knows what the Gu family is investigating!

Xiao Bai also looked at Lan Shu with concern, "Go and get some sleep. I'll call you when the meal is ready."

The call must have come from Qingyang County, that’s why the other party said he was ‘from a big city’.

"It's me, Cui Youdang. The things you asked me to investigate before are now a bit clearer. According to those gangsters, the person who called them at the beginning spoke relatively standard Mandarin, so he should be in a big city.

people..."

The call Gu Cheng made originally was answered by the 'bald man'.

Gu Cheng grew up in Qingyang County, and his original accent was the county dialect. Later, he followed his father to Kyoto and slowly changed to Mandarin.

"A big city? Our family has nothing to do with other big cities, so the person who wants to assassinate my son can only be from Kyoto!"

But now, Lan Shu discovered some flaws hidden under the plot.

In the living room, Gu Cheng originally thought that his family knew nothing about the real culprit behind Gu Jue's murder and amnesia in Qingyang County, so he came back to sit for a while and planned to leave soon.

Cui Youdang continued to talk about the details on the phone, but Gu Cheng's face had become a little ugly!

If you don’t think about these things carefully, you will never think of them!

At this time, Lan Shu lowered her head and reacted silently, which was noticed by Xiao Bai and Wei Qiu Shuang.

He also regretted that he did not get rid of Gu Jue again after he returned to Kyoto!

Lan Shu had read the novel and knew that in the book, Gu Jue was the villain. After regaining his memory and returning home, he faced off against Gu Cheng and fought to the end.

The two of them didn't think much about it. They just thought that Lan Shu might be heavy and tired from sitting for a long time.

The conflict between Gu Jue and Gu Cheng is not explicitly stated in the novel. It is written that the male protagonist has a successful career and the female protagonist and the male protagonist are loving and sweet.

Once it is finally found on him, Gu Cheng cannot imagine the result!

At this moment, Gu Cheng felt fear and regret in his heart.

Fortunately, the phone call ended here. After Cui Youdang finished speaking, Gu Anguo thanked him and said Happy New Year, and then hung up the phone.

But Gu Cheng didn't expect that the bald man, besides being ruthless, could also hear the accent!

And later Gu Anguo said, 'Hit my son...'

The voice coming from the phone was quite loud. Because the house was relatively quiet, Gu Cheng, who was not far from the living room, easily listened to everything on the phone——

So Wei Qiu Shuang immediately suggested, "Shu Shu, why don't you go upstairs and rest for a while?"

Is it Gu Cheng who called to pay for the murder?

The original Gu Jue survived a catastrophe and lost his memory for several years. After finding out the cause of his accident, the first thing he did after returning was to seek revenge from Gu Cheng?

If this is the explanation, then everything makes sense.

Once the other party reveals that his Mandarin has a local Qingyang County accent, the scope of his parents' investigation will instantly narrow, and the focus will even be on himself——

Even if you don't notice it on weekdays, some locals know a lot about accents, so you can hear it to some extent.

Regarding the incident of sending people to kill Gu Jue, I regretted that I didn't select the people carefully. The people I found were so incompetent! I was not sure whether Gu Jue was dead, so I threw him into the river!

Based on Lan Shu's understanding of Xiao Bai, he would never confront his brother for no reason, so it must be because Gu Cheng did something that made Xiao Bai unforgivable, so the two had a fight.

develop.

Gu Anguo looked solemn and blurted out his guess on the spot.

However, Lan Shu was slightly startled when she heard the word 'rogue'. Adding the phrase 'the caller is from a big city' made her thoughtful.

But now, when the family receives such a call on New Year's Day, Gu Cheng can't imagine whether there will be other calls next?

From the current situation, it seems that his father has sent someone to investigate what happened.

He was afraid that he would be found out.

The phrase ‘the accent sounds familiar’ on the phone made him so nervous that his palms became sweaty!

He knew that even if he spoke Mandarin, his tone would still have some accent from his hometown.

This is what Gu Anguo said about his son being assassinated.

In the living room, Wei Qiu Shuang heard the voice that just came from the phone. Her expression did not change, she just paused for a while, and then continued to chat casually.

She nodded, and then Xiaobai helped her up from the sofa and walked upstairs.

But before going upstairs, Lan Shu glanced at Gu Cheng not far away.

Seeing that Gu Cheng's face was stiff, there was a little sweat on his forehead in the middle of winter, and he was trying hard to hide the panic in his eyes——

Lan Shu already knew that her inference should be correct!
Chapter completed!
