Every time the man logged out of the Qingyanfu forum, he would erase all browsing history.
Qin He smirked. She couldn't find anything on the dark web, but she had the phones others used to contact him. If she still couldn't find some hidden ID records, she might as well not bother staying in Qingyanfu.
"Ruiyi, did you catch him alone?" Qin He looked at Shen Ruiyi.
Shen Ruiyi nodded, "He came alone. The other one was probably waiting outside to assist. I've already sent people to look for him!"
The man lying on the ground snapped out of his shock, looking at Qin He with suspicion. He gritted his teeth, "Who exactly are you?"
Just a spoiled rich girl. When they took the mission, he and his brother never expected it to be this difficult!
But now, this Qin He not only knew about Qingyanfu but had also easily traced his IP!
Qin He stroked her belly and sat on the hospital bed with a smile.
"You must have investigated thoroughly before taking the mission. Why are you asking such a question now?"
When Qin He had seen Shen Ruiyi arrive with only one person, she had been a little worried. But now, seeing the ID 'Ba Shen', her heart was practically assured.
The ID 'Ba Shen' was quite well-known in Qingyanfu. It belonged to a pair of brothers, very close to each other.
As long as they caught this one, the other one waiting to assist would definitely come to rescue him.
Qin He had originally planned to reveal her identity as Qingxie, a moderator of Qingyanfu, but with Gu Qichen in the room, it was best to refrain.
Qin He thought for a moment and then said to Shen Ruiyi, "Ruiyi, have people strictly monitor the area around the hospital. The other one will definitely come to save him."
The man on the ground gritted his teeth, "No one will come to save me. Taking on this kind of mission and exposing ourselves is a death sentence. When disaster strikes, everyone flies their own way!"
Qin He chuckled, "I believe he will come to save you. After all, you're brothers!"
The man's eyes widened.
Qin He stroked her slightly protruding belly with a gentle motion, "Are you going to ask again how I know?"
"I know more than you think, so you have no chance of escaping. How about we strike a deal?"
The man's face darkened for a few seconds.
Qin He didn't look at him, "You took a job from Zero Rose. News of my impending death is spreading everywhere. I believe if you cooperate, Zero Rose will believe I'm truly dead, and she'll pay you the remaining sum. I just need some clues related to Zero Rose. The money will still be yours."
"Impossible, if we do that, we—" the man gritted his teeth.
Qin He smiled, "Your reputation in the industry will be questioned, right? Don't worry about that. I have my ways of handling it."
"What can you handle?" the man frowned.
Qin He's smile was full of confidence and assurance.
The man was momentarily stunned, then a rule of Qingyanfu flashed through his mind.
All members were forbidden from harming forum administrators, in other words, from insubordination. If a mission was taken by mistake, it could be aborted mid-way.
Besides this rule, he could hardly think of any other way to avoid losing credibility in the industry.
The man stared intently at Qin He. Seeing her smiling at him, he silently glanced at Shen Ruiyi beside him.
Could this woman really be one of the forum administrators?
Otherwise, even if she discovered he was 'Ba Shen', very few people knew that 'Ba Shen' was a pair of brothers—
"Since you have doubts, why not wait until your brother arrives before we discuss it? After all, he will come, won't he?"
Qin He looked at Shen Ruiyi, "Ruiyi, take him to the adjacent room for safekeeping. We'll talk to him when the one coming to rescue him arrives."
Shen Ruiyi acknowledged, picked up the man on the ground, and then glanced at Gu Qichen. He was uneasy about this man who had appeared in the room silently, bypassing his watch.
"Miss Qin, are there any other people we need to take away?" Shen Ruiyi stared at Gu Qichen. His instincts, honed in life-or-death situations, told him this man was dangerous.
Qin He glanced at Gu Qichen. He was sitting there, smiling at her faintly, looking as gentle and harmless as could be.
She clenched her fist, "No need!"
Shen Ruiyi left.
Qin He kicked off her slippers and sat back on the bed.
"You couldn't have climbed thirty-three floors. Did you come from the thirtieth?"
Gu Qichen smiled, "Yes."
"It seems we need to reinforce the outer wall too," Qin He said coldly.
To prevent such hooligans from invading again!
Gu Qichen stood up, "I just wanted to see you. Now that I know you're safe, I'm relieved."
Qin He sneered, "Your arrival makes me less safe."
After saying that, her face flushed slightly.
When Gu Qichen first entered, he had forcibly kissed her. She had wanted to get angry, but his labored breathing and the rapid pulse she felt when resisting told her that Gu Qichen was extremely agitated.
For some reason, she felt a touch of warmth in her heart.
Qin He maintained a stern face, "Now that you've seen me, can you leave?"
Gu Qichen took two steps forward, approaching the hospital bed.
Qin He immediately recoiled, adopting a defensive posture, "Gu Qichen, if you dare do anything else, I will cripple you! I have my people all over the thirty-third floor now!"
Gu Qichen let out a muffled laugh, bent down, and pulled the quilt from the foot of the bed, covering Qin He.
"I know, boss."
This "boss" was what Shen Ruiyi had called Qin He earlier. But for some reason, when he said it, it sounded incredibly intimate.
Qin He pretended not to understand, "You can leave now."
"Since you've caught the person, you should be able to be discharged soon, right?" Gu Qichen countered.
Qin He frowned deeply, "You're being too concerned."
"You are a partner of Gu Corporation, and there are many matters to handle in the West District," Gu Qichen said gently. "Also, Grandma misses you very much, and Liu Xing'an and his wife are very worried."
Presenting three reasons at once, Qin He felt Gu Qichen in front of her was like a fox.
"It'll probably be another two or three days," Qin He said coldly.
Suddenly, she spoke again, "Gu Qichen, do you know who hired the killer to assassinate me?"
Gu Qichen thought for a moment, "Before, we found another group investigating you on the dark web. Are they the ones?"
"Those people aren't interested in my life," Qin He stared into his eyes. "Zero Rose is likely Song Nuan."
Gu Qichen's face turned cold instantly.
Qin He felt a little sheepish. Gu Qichen was clearly still hung up on his pure little white lotus.
She let out a cold laugh, "You don't believe me?"
"It's not that I don't believe you. Since you've identified the person, why go through all this trouble to lure them here to investigate?"
Gu Qichen stood up, "I'll have Yu Jing bring her back, and you can interrogate her. Isn't that clear enough?"
Why should you take such a big risk yourself!
Qin He was stunned, "You're willing to let me interrogate Song Nuan?"
"If you need it, of course."
