"I sent someone to look into that health center you were born in, and apparently there was an old man who used to work as a guard there . He was a very honest person who was said to have worked at the health center for ten years; he later retired and went to the south with his niece, but he just returned to Dong Tao Town a few days ago . I've already checked the address and details, so he might be of help to us," Qin Chu said slowly .

Huo Mian's spirits lightened up as she immediately grabbed Qin Chu's hand and walked out…

"We shouldn't dawdle, let's hurry up and go . "

"We're not driving the Maybach?" Downstairs, Huo Mian was confused when she saw Qin Chu getting into the Volkswagen CC .

Wouldn't the Maybach be faster?

"I'll explain to you once you get in . " Qin Chu looked at her .

Huo Mian knew what he meant, so she got into the passenger seat and buckled her seatbelt, as the car slowly drove out of Imperial Park .

"It's because I feel a bit weird about the whole situation of yours, maybe someone is pulling some strings on purpose . So I thought we should remain low-key, just in case . Dong Tao Town has no more than fifty thousand residents, and it isn't very developed, so they rarely even get to see a Mercedes Benz or BMW . That's why I thought the Maybach would be too flashy and draw in too much attention . "

"You've really thought it through, I must have been too impatient…" Huo Mian felt a cold breeze creep up her back after she heard what Qin Chu said .

Maybe she wanted to see her family so badly that she ignored a lot of the other things .

Qin Chu already told her last time that a lot of the useful information and key witnesses strangely vanished or died .

Even the archives room where the hospital files were kept had completely burned up in a fire, and thus she didn't think it was just a coincidence .

It was very likely that there was a mysterious person who orchestrated all of this, so they shouldn't be so pronounced when investigating Dong Tao Town .

They had to remain low-key before anything else…

The Volkswagen CC wasn't slow either, even though the two didn't take the highway, they arrived in Dong Tao Town in no more than two hours .



It was already dark when they arrived…

The town wasn't like the city and didn't have lights everywhere when night fell .

Due to the low population, the few businesses in town all turned off their lights very early .

"Are we going directly to that grandpa's home?" asked Huo Mian somewhat nervously .

"Yes . "

They drove around a corner after another before Qin Chu finally parked outside a cluster of single-storey houses on the edge of Dong Tao Town .

"We're here . "

"Which one is it?" Huo Mian asked as she looked at the pitch-dark houses .



"The second last home on the very last row . "

Huo Mian looked over to where Qin Chu said it was and saw a very old and well-worn house . It was made of sun-dried mud bricks; not many people lived in houses like this anymore .

The two walked past a muddy road and finally arrived in front of that house .

It was already 7 PM or so, and since it was already autumn, it was considered nighttime in Northern China .

All of the other homes around were lit up with lights, except this one . It was pretty much all dark inside and looked a bit scary .

"We should be careful, it looks a bit off . " Huo Mian had a bad feeling about the place, so she quietly warned Qin Chu .

"Yes, wait here . I'll go knock on the door . "

"No, I want to come with you . " Huo Mian was worried and didn't want to stand there waiting . Instead, she tightly held onto Qin Chu's hand .



She wasn't a cowardly person since back in medical school, she could dissect a corpse by herself without a change in expression .

At the hospital, she was even okay with pushing corpses into the morgue by herself . Yet, this time she had a chilling feeling, it was as if something bad was about to happen .

Seeing that Huo Mian wanted to come with, Qin Chu led her towards the broken-down door .

Bang, bang, bang… Qin Chu knocked three times quite forcefully, so if anyone was inside, they must've heard him .

"Purr…" A black cat suddenly ran out from nowhere .

Huo Mian was frightened, and she immediately hugged Qin Chu tightly…

"Don't be scared…"

"Are you home, Mr . Yang?" Qin Chu knocked on the door again as he shouted .
