Chapter 240: Chapter 231: What is this rhythm?"What is this?" Qi Manlin asked, puzzled, taking the list. "Hmm? Auction personnel list? Isn’t this supposed to be confidential? How do you have this?" Qi Manlin looked at Lin Mu suspiciously and asked. Lin Mu waved with a smile, "You think your brother wants something he can’t get?" "Tch!" Qi Manlin said with disdain, looking over the list of people. "Did you find anything?" Lin Mu asked with a smile. Qi Manlin suddenly frowned, looking surprised at the list. She glanced up at Lin Mu, her eyes filled with astonishment. "She, they are the same person?" Qi Manlin couldn’t quite believe it. "That’s right, the same person. Now you know the purpose behind the mastermind who killed Zheng Haonan, right?" Lin Mu chuckled. "Who is this Purple Clothes? How could they have such ability, daring to kill Zheng Haonan?" "No one knows who Purple Clothes is. What’s important is that this person has been identified as the mastermind behind Zheng Haonan’s murder. The purpose is simple—to use Zheng Haonan’s money to buy Kangyu Foot Bath City. Haha, this person has quite the plan!" Lin Mu sneered. "Hmph, I think you plan better. You can see through everything!" Qi Manlin glanced at Lin Mu, wondering why she couldn’t think of what he could. "Haha, of course, just look at who your brother is!" Lin Mu chuckled. "Alright, take a compliment and don’t know how to be humble! I’ll notify the task force to make an arrest immediately. The evidence is conclusive; let’s see where she can run!" Qi Manlin said. "No rush, the good show is just beginning. Why hurry? And do you really think you can catch this person? Since this Purple Clothes dared to do this, they surely aren’t afraid of you cops. Don’t worry, I have my ways to deal with her, just not yet!" Qi Manlin frowned at Lin Mu, knowing he had some sneaky plan again, full of bad ideas! "What do you plan to do?" Qi Manlin asked, looking at Lin Mu. Lin Mu winked at Qi Manlin, "Haha, not telling you, gonna make you anxious!" "Not telling, huh?" Qi Manlin pouted, and it looked like she was about to take action if he didn’t speak. "Hehe, give your brother a kiss, and I’ll tell you!" Lin Mu laughed. "Bastard, I’ve seen shameless, but not as shameless as you!" Qi Manlin said while pinching Lin Mu’s waist, aiming for the tenderest spot. "Ouch, mom!" The pain in his waist was unbearable, making Lin Mu inhale sharply. This girl was too ruthless, like a shrew! "Say it or not?" Qi Manlin said triumphantly, "If you don’t, I’ll twist you to death!"

Lin Mu looked at Qi Manlin with a defiant expression, "I won’t say it, do it again, and don’t blame me for being rude!" "Hmph, I’d like to see how you’re rude!" Qi Manlin snorted, reaching for Lin Mu’s waist again. "Haha, why don’t we try this again? Hmm, the environment here is nice and comfortable. How about we try some car shock action?" Lin Mu was startled, not even having a chance to fetch his gun, when this Wild Girl pulled out a real gun, absolutely insane! A wise man knows when to retreat, Lin Mu quickly changed his expression to a smile, "Hehe, police lady, calm down. This thing shouldn’t be pointed at people. What if it fires accidentally? My life would end here." "Hmph, it serves you right to die, save me the trouble!" Qi Manlin said irritably, though she had no intention of actually firing, just scaring Lin Mu. "Police lady, let’s talk this out nicely, can we put down the gun, please?" Lin Mu showed a pure smile, slowly pressing Qi Manlin’s hand down. Once down, Qi Manlin suddenly raised the gun again, "Hmph, I won’t put a bullet hole in your head if you tell me what the plan is next!" "Haha, sure, sure. What’s next is simple, but it’s complicated to explain. How about I give you an overview, and as we go through it, you’ll naturally understand!" Lin Mu said. "Alright, go ahead." Qi Manlin nodded. "This so-called Purple Clothes is still useful now. The purpose is simple; he wants Kangyu Foot Bath City, and Han Si Hai wants it too. Of course, so do I. So these people will surely fight in the shadows. Han Si Hai, as you know, will try to deal with everyone on this list, including me, but this Purple Clothes, having crafted such a seamless strategy and being so foresightful, is not simple. Just wait and see, ’The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind,’ it’s a continuous show." Lin Mu laughed. "Why so complicated, I’m totally confused!" Qi Manlin frowned, not understanding Lin Mu’s explanation at all. Where did Purple Clothes come from? Who is the mantis and who is the oriole? "Haha, I said your chest is big but your brain is small and you got mad, can’t even understand this, how sad!" Lin Mu sighed. "Hmph, if I understood, why would I ask you!" Qi Manlin glared at Lin Mu. "Don’t overthink it. If I explain simply, you won’t get it. Like walking into a thick fog, even if I tell you where to go, you’ll still get lost because the road is long. But if I slowly clear the fog for you, and you follow me, we’ll soon get out. This matter is intricate, take it slow, and you’ll gradually understand. I’ll need your help on many things," Lin Mu said.
