It was not difficult to guess that Fang Lin was full of doubts at this time, but Goatee did not offer any explanation or say anything, he just laughed it off.
And Fang Lin didn't ask any more questions, no matter what conspiracy behind them?
To him, as long as he could take Jingzi away smoothly, everything else about the General's Mansion didn't matter.
"Gui...Fang...Mr. Fang, are you...really you?"
At Goatee's signal, the two guards quickly opened the door.
Jingzi, who was bored reading the newspaper, subconsciously looked toward the door. When he saw Fang Lin, he was slightly shocked for a few seconds, and then jumped over in surprise and joy.
Originally, he almost blurted out the name "Mr. Mysterious" subconsciously, but when he saw that there were strangers around Fang Lin, Jingzi suppressed this habitual name.
"You didn't even confirm it was me, so you rushed over?"
Although it looks like a nice place to stay, all kinds of delicious food are readily available.
But after not seeing her for a long time, her face still looked a little haggard.
Today's hardships were all caused by him. Fang Lin felt distressed in his heart. He gently put his hand around her waist and joked with a hint of smile.
"The taste and feeling are unmistakable. I knew you would definitely come."
Knowing that Fang Lin must feel sorry for her, and knowing that he was deliberately joking with her to hide his inner fluctuations, Jingzi was so happy that his eyes narrowed into a straight line.
"Of course, I've made you feel wronged.
But don’t worry, someone will always have to pay the price for your suffering.”
With a soft comfort word, Fang Lin instantly looked at the goatee with stern eyes and said coldly.
"Fang...Mr. Fang, don't worry, we are not disrespectful to Miss Jingzi at all.
And... Moreover, this matter is indeed our fault, but we have no choice but to ask Mr. Fang to give us some time and promise to give you both a satisfactory answer in the future."
Even Goatee, who had always acted calmly, was instantly frightened and his legs weakened under Fang Lin's sharp and murderous eyes, but he soon managed to calm down and spoke politely.
"I don't care what the hell you're planning, but it'd better be this way."
Fang Lin was not naive enough to believe that they had such good intentions, otherwise there would be no need for them to capture Jingzi here.
However, it was obvious that taking Jingzi away safely now was the right thing to do, so he didn't particularly break his heart.
"I'm fine. In fact, they are really good to me."
Of course Jingzi also understood this, so he said with a smile on his very sensible face.
"Send my regards to your general and take my leave."
It was not advisable to stay here for a long time. Fang Lin took Jingzi's hand and started to walk out with a polite word.
"Welcome you two to be our regular guests."
The moment the two of them turned around, an imperceptible sly smile flashed across the corner of Goatee's mouth.
Both sides were wary of each other, and the general's office was not willing to lose a large number of troops and generals just for the sake of Fang Lin.
And once a killing spree begins, Jingzi's life will inevitably be threatened, which is not what Fang Lin really wants.
Although everyone seems to be happy with the ending, Fang Lin is actually quite worried, because he knows very well that although Jingzi is rescued, there will be endless troubles, but it has not been concretely shown yet.
"gone?"
As soon as the two left, Goatee hurriedly appeared in a quaintly decorated study room in the villa next to her.
An old man with gray hair on his temples was staring intently at an exquisite brocade box on the desk, speaking casually in Japanese without raising his head.
"Replying to the master, he has left."
Goatee replied respectfully and in Japanese.
"Well, you did a good job on this matter. I will mark it as a great achievement. When the matter is completed, you will benefit a lot from it."
"Thank you Master, but I am still worried.
The surrounding walls outside the mansion have long been turned into cannon fodder, so this matter must not be hidden from the outside world.
Once word spreads, many people will think that the General's Mansion is not impregnable and will become rebellious, fearing that there will be endless troubles in the future."
"The sores are not terrible, at least they are visible and can be cut off without the pain.
What is really worrisome are those illnesses that remain hidden and show no signs."
"It turns out that the master has thought of this a long time ago. He kills three birds with one stone. I admire him very much."
"Let's prepare for the next action! The people in the General's Mansion cannot be saved by anyone who wants to. Some people must understand that the Japanese country is not China, and they cannot be allowed to act arrogantly."
It wasn't until Goatee promised to leave quickly that the corner of the old man's mouth showed a comfortable smile, and at the same time he slowly opened the brocade box in front of him.
A blood jade doll suddenly appeared in front of the old man's eyes. It was the one that Fang Lin traded with the mysterious old man from China.
It's just different from when Fang Lin got it. At this time, the blood jade doll was already red all over, like an iron plate that had just been roasted by a fierce fire.
Although Fang Lin and Jingzi knew that there must be a purpose for the General's Mansion to let people go so easily, they never expected that such a big move would be triggered, nor did they expect that the blood jade doll that was originally traded would actually appear in the General's Mansion.
"Mr. Secret, why did you come to Japan so quickly?
Because of me?"
In the taxi, Jingzi was obviously not affected by any unpleasant factors.
For her, being able to see Fang Lin again, no matter how much suffering she suffered, was worth it. She looked at Fang Lin with a slightly blushing face and asked in Japanese with excitement.
"Of course, if you are in trouble, I will never sit idly by and ignore it."
This was indeed the main reason why Fang Lin came to Japan eagerly, so there was no need to hide it and he replied with a smile.
"By the way, you asked me to inquire about the whereabouts and news of Miss Su Xiaomeng. I'm afraid I will disappoint you this time.
Although I tried my best, I only knew that she had been picked up by the Koga faction, and there was almost no other information or clues."
Fang Lin's words instantly made Jingzi's heart feel as sweet as honey, but soon his expression darkened again, like a child who had done something wrong.
"The Koga faction has used almost all their abilities to keep this matter a secret. I can't blame you.
On the contrary, you have been wronged, and I am the only one who feels sorry for you."
Fang Lin comforted him very thoughtfully.
"Don't say that, it's Jingzi's honor to be able to contribute to you.
By the way, there is something very strange about this matter.
You also know that in the Japanese country, the Koga and Iga factions are incompatible with each other.
But the strange thing is that during the investigation, not only did I encounter many obstacles from the Koga faction, but there were even people from the Iga faction who secretly tried to trip me up. Isn’t it strange?”
Suddenly, Jingzi suddenly raised his head as if he remembered something shocking, and said with a suspicious look on his face.
"Are you sure you are from the Iga sect?"
"Of course, you know my methods. There are very few people caught by me who dare not tell the truth."
"Help."
Just when Fang Lin was shocked, a text message rang on his phone.
As soon as I picked up my phone and took a look, two messages written in Chinese suddenly appeared in front of my eyes.
