Chapter 400 The mysterious female ninja turned out to be Huo Qingshu's bodyguard
This woman was dressed more normally at the moment, which was not consistent with the ninja attire that appeared that day. Her body shape seemed to have changed slightly, but Ye Xingyu could determine that she was the target he was looking for, because the soul mark was on her body.
It cannot be faked no matter what.
Although she looks like an ordinary person now and has nothing to do with ninjas, for the sake of convenience, let's call her a kunoichi.
She stood quietly in the corner of the restaurant, leaning against the wall. She looked neither like a restaurant staff member nor a diner, just like an insignificant idler, wasting time in boredom.
If you observe carefully, you will find that she occasionally raises her head inadvertently, and her eyes fall to a certain place in the hall, but she quickly looks back and lowers her head again.
The location that attracted the attention of the kunoichi was an elegant small dining table for two, which was adjacent to the transparent floor-to-ceiling windows. While dining, one could enjoy the bustling street scene and the people passing by.
On the side of the dining table facing the entrance, there sat a handsome young man in a straight suit. He had slender eyebrows, neat hair, a calm face, and a straight back, giving him an innate aristocratic aura.
This man was no stranger. He had met Ye Xingyu twice. He was Huo Qingshu, the eldest son of the Huo family, the number one noble son in the imperial capital.
"It turns out they are really from the Huo family!" Ye Xingyu murmured to himself at the corner outside the street.
The mysterious female ninja appears in the same frame as the eldest son of the Huo family, which shows that there must be a relationship between the two. Judging from Ye Xingyu's guess, the female ninja should be Mr. Huo's bodyguard, and she is protecting Huo Qingshu's safety at the moment.
This is a bustling street with people coming and going, and there are many staff and a few diners in the restaurant. It is impossible for Ye Xingyu to rush in and take action directly. He can only wait and see if there are any opportunities to take advantage of.
But the situation happened to be very stable. Huo Qingshu sat still and didn't know what he was thinking. It didn't look like he was here to eat, but like he was waiting for someone.
The kunoichi also leaned against the wall and showed no reaction, only occasionally adjusting her stance.
During this period, a service staff came by and brought a cup of tea to the kunoichi, but the kunoichi didn't take it. She said something and the other person replaced the tea with bottled mineral water.
Then, the kunoichi picked up the bottle again, checked it carefully, and confirmed that there was no problem before unscrewing the cap and pouring it into her throat.
"You're really careful!" Ye Xingyu smiled slightly when he saw this scene, and he didn't want to alert others. He stood quietly on the street corner outside, paying most of his attention to what was going on in the restaurant.
After a while, a dazzling woman walked into the restaurant and immediately attracted the attention of many people, including Ye Xingyu outside the restaurant.
"Huh? Why is she here?" Ye Xingyu was a little surprised.
This woman looks very familiar, it is Ouyang Ting who I just met yesterday, but she is dressed more modestly at the moment, wearing a sweater underneath, a coat outside, a scarf around her neck, tight black pants and high-heeled pony boots.
After Ouyang Ting entered, Huo Qingshu stood up and nodded slightly to her, but his face was as cold and calm as ever.
Immediately afterwards, Huo Qingshu helped pull out the chair opposite, and Ouyang Ting walked over and sat down. The two faced each other, looking directly into each other's eyes.
It seems that the person Huo Qingshu is waiting for is Ouyang Ting. They are both influential figures of the younger generation in the imperial capital. I don't know what they will talk about when they meet here. Ye Xingyu can only sense the picture but cannot hear the sound.
However, the atmosphere between the two of them was a bit strange. It was hard to tell whether they were familiar or unfamiliar. They each said a few opening remarks and then ordered according to the menu. Then there was a long silence, neither of them spoke a word. It didn't feel like anything.
It was just to talk things over, and it seemed that it was just to meet up and have a casual meal.
Ye Xingyu didn't understand the situation and didn't care about it. His target was not Huo Qingshu, but Huo Qingshu's bodyguards. He had to find a way to capture them without anyone noticing.
If the kunoichi follows Huo Qingshu all the time, and the two of them stay in a crowded place, then this matter will be a bit tricky. Maybe they can follow Huo Qingshu for a whole day without finding an opportunity to make a move.
But after Ye Xingyu's careful observation, he suddenly had an idea and thought of a possibility. It seemed that this was a good opportunity to make a move. Whether it would succeed or not would depend on luck.
Ye Xingyu expanded the scope of the soul detection and found that the restaurant had a back door leading to the warehouse. This was to facilitate loading and unloading and to allow logistics staff to enter and exit.
He took steps and left the place. Instead of passing through the street in front of him, he went around and quickly arrived at the back door of the restaurant.
Just as he was about to enter, he was stopped by someone. A middle-aged man wearing a heavy military coat stretched out his hand to stop him: "Brother, you look very cool, you are not one of us, are you? This is a warehouse, so you can't break in!"
This person should be a janitor. After all, there is a warehouse through the back door. There are many supplies, some of which are valuables. It is impossible to open the door and let outsiders in casually.
Ye Xingyu frowned, holding his belly, pretending to be uncomfortable, and said with a sad face: "I'm sorry, I have a stomachache, I can't hold it in anymore, I want to use the bathroom..."
"No, no, no -!" The middle-aged man was not too polite. He waved his hand fiercely before he finished speaking: "No outsiders are allowed in here. If you want to use the toilet, you can go to the shopping mall opposite!"
"Brother, please do it for me, I really can't help it, the crack of my butt is so slippery!"
As Ye Xingyu spoke, he cast spells in secret, using hypnosis on the man blocking the way, using his powerful mental power to influence the opponent's weak thinking.
This person's willpower was obviously not very good. Under Ye Xingyu's hypnosis, he immediately became dizzy and confused. He always seemed to feel that everything the other party said made sense, and he subconsciously chose to obey.
"Oh, that's it!" The middle-aged man's attitude softened, and his voice was not as loud as before. He quickly stepped aside and let out the back door, "Then go in, and come out as soon as you're done. Don't run around.
!”
"I know, thank you, brother!"
As soon as Ye Xingyu finished speaking, he raised his legs a few steps and ducked into the door. After his figure disappeared for a long time, the middle-aged man slowly came back to his senses and muttered in a low voice with some confusion: "Huh? There seemed to be someone just now.
, why can’t you remember what you told me?”
The middle-aged man thought about it carefully, but it was like looking at flowers in the mist. He had a vague impression, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
So he was too lazy to think about it anymore, so he took a cigarette, lit a fire, and started to smoke and think about life, completely forgetting what happened just now, and pretending that nothing had happened.
