Guo Xuyang saw Zhao Qingchun lying motionless on the table and knew he had succeeded.
He used his detoxification ability to neutralize all the alcohol, and after sobering up, he delved into Zhao Qingchun's consciousness to examine his memories.
Liu Yiyi was right; although Zhao Qingchun was not the direct killer, he was the biggest accomplice.
When Liu Yiyi left with the briefcase that day, Zhao Qingchun had called the person he was meeting.
It was no wonder Liu Yiyi couldn't pass on the information. It was all a matter of coincidence.
He hadn't expected Zhao Qingchun to call the people who wanted to kill him that day, nor had he expected to be targeted so early.
He had been meticulously collecting information, always wary of being discovered, but still, he couldn't escape.
And he had been betrayed by his own comrade.
After examining his memories, Guo Xuyang felt that Liu Yiyi had been terribly wronged.
Unfortunately, he lacked the ability to restore souls, let alone souls that had already entered the cycle of reincarnation.
The person Zhao Qingchun had contacted was an extremely beautiful woman, around thirty to forty years old, which was something Guo Xuyang hadn't expected.
This woman had only interacted with him three times.
The first time, during her conversation with Zhao Qingchun, she had simply shown him photos of his real estate and mistresses.
It was likely similar to what Liu Yiyi had mentioned; if he could discover Zhao Qingchun's mistresses, then so could the woman who contacted him.
The second time, Zhao Qingchun and the woman met in a secret room, where they became intimate.
This time, the woman must have fully brainwashed him, or he wouldn't have betrayed his comrade like this.
The third time, also in a secret room, Guo Xuyang discovered his own photos and information.
He examined them closely through Zhao Qingchun's consciousness, and indeed, they were his details.
This woman had been investigating him.
Who was she?
Why was his information in a secret room?
He had never interacted with Zhao Qingchun before, nor did he know this seductive middle-aged woman. So, how did his information end up in the secret room?
He suddenly became interested in this woman.
He expanded his senses, following Zhao Qingchun's consciousness to the address of the woman's secret room.
He looked up, but unfortunately, the woman was not there. However, an open briefcase lay in a corner.
He looked closely; it was the same briefcase Liu Yiyi had taken when he left.
There was nothing particularly special inside, except for a passport, a few small gold bars, two professional books, and some construction project documents.
The gold bars were likely a distraction; the real focus was on the two professional books.
Liu Yiyi's soul had told him that he had used a special method to engrave those people into the professional books.
Since he had found it, he naturally wouldn't let it go. He closed the briefcase and absorbed it into his mind.
Besides the briefcase, there was nothing else of value in the secret room.
It seemed this place was a rendezvous spot for the woman.
He withdrew his senses, looked at the unconscious Zhao Qingchun before him, and walked out of the private room.
"Sir, are you planning to rest?"
Xiao Lu saw Guo Xuyang come out and quickly approached him.
"Why haven't you gone to rest yet?" Guo Xuyang asked, puzzled.
"I was waiting for you. Have you finished eating?"
"Yes. Are you familiar with this place?" Guo Xuyang asked.
"I've spent some time here before. I know some of the well-known places."
"Could you show me around? See if there are any fun places?
This is my first time here; I've never been to this place before."
"I understand. Shall I take you out for some fun?"
Xiao Lu gave a knowing smile that most men would understand.
Guo Xuyang saw his expression and knew what he was thinking, but he didn't stop him.
After all, for men, a little indulgence was acceptable.
"Take me to see. I'll cover the expenses," Guo Xuyang said.
"Alright, Mr. Liu. Please follow me."
Xiao Lu then led Guo Xuyang downstairs.
At this time, the best place for fun was undoubtedly a bar.
Xiao Lu drove Guo Xuyang to a bar where many people were queuing.
"Mr. Liu, the bars here are quite unique, and the quality of the drinks is very high.
Shall we go in and take a look?"
Xiao Lu said.
"I've never been here. Let's go in and have a look."
"You go ahead and get out of the car. I'll park it and be right there."
"Okay. I'll wait for you," Guo Xuyang replied, getting out and joining the back of the line.
He quietly released his senses and discovered that this bar was only two blocks away from the secret room.
Could it be fate?
Guo Xuyang didn't know what to say.
He wondered if he would meet that woman here.
He shook his head. A thirty-four-year-old woman, who would come to such a place in the middle of the night?
"Mr. Liu, let's go in," Xiao Lu said, approaching him.
"Don't we need to queue?" Guo Xuyang asked, looking at the line ahead.
"I have this," Xiao Lu said, flashing a card in his hand.
"What is it? Are there members here?"
"I used to frequent this area a lot, so the owner is quite familiar with me," Xiao Lu explained.
"Oh, I see? I didn't realize you were such a player?"
Guo Xuyang said with a half-smile.
"Just passing the time. You know, I'm also a vibrant young man."
Xiao Lu seemed a bit embarrassed.
"Then let's go in."
Guo Xuyang followed Xiao Lu into the bar and discovered a whole new world inside.
How to describe it?
It was vast.
Spanning half a football field, the place was crowded, with people swaying wildly to the music.
Guo Xuyang had been to bars in China with Pi Xiaoqian and others before, but he had never seen such a large bar.
"Mr. Liu, many people here will try to sell you that stuff. You must not touch it."
Xiao Lu leaned close to Guo Xuyang and gestured with his hand.
"Huh?" Guo Xuyang didn't understand for a moment.
"That," Xiao Lu pointed with his chin towards a spot.
Guo Xuyang followed his gaze and saw a scrawny black young man trying to sell something to a delicately dressed woman with brown hair.
The woman waved him away, ignoring him.
But the young man was persistent. He moved closer and said something that caused the woman to leave with him.
Guo Xuyang was puzzled as to why the woman would go with the black youth.
The distance was too great, and the bar was too noisy, so he couldn't hear what the young man had said.
"I'm going to take a look. You have fun on your own. We'll contact each other later,"
Guo Xuyang told Xiao Lu and followed them.
He saw the two of them disappear into the restroom, and soon, unspeakable sounds emanated from within.
Damn it, not a single decent person.
He cursed under his breath and turned away.
