Mei Shu smiled slyly, “It’s more than just that.”
Black Panther didn’t catch on immediately and asked humbly, “What do you mean?”
“I’m asking you,” Mei Shu put down the documents and leaned back, raising an eyebrow as she asked, “How long have you been in this line of work?”
Black Panther thought carefully for a moment before replying, “For about two or three years.”
“And in these two or three years, how many jobs have you done?” Mei Shu continued to smile knowingly.
Black Panther hesitated for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, “Miss Mei Shu, why do you ask?”
Mei Shu said, “Just answer the question.”
Seeing her serious expression, Black Panther reluctantly replied, “Well, there have been countless jobs, of course. You know, we need to eat. Miss Mei, why do you ask me this?”
Mei Shu said, “Don’t be nervous. So, what kind of people have you robbed?”
Black Panther smiled ingratiatingly, “Of course, it’s always wealthy tourists visiting Wendith.”
He then glanced shrewdly and chuckled, “I know what you mean. Please don’t worry, we’ve never robbed poor people. The ones we’ve targeted all had plenty of money! And the money they had might not have been entirely clean, so why not share it with us?”
Mei Shu looked at him with a smile but didn’t say anything.
Black Panther quickly waved his hands and said, “Miss Mei Shu, I didn’t mean you. Of course, you’re different from those people!”
Mei Shu chuckled, “I said don’t be nervous. I was just asking casually. As long as you haven’t done anything outrageous, there’s still a chance for redemption. I’m willing to give you a chance to start anew. Let’s make money together.”
“Miss Mei Shu, with your words, we’ll do whatever you say, no questions asked! Even if you ask us to walk through fire, we won’t hesitate!” Black Panther and his companions expressed their sincerity to Mei Shu, afraid that she might regret her decision.
Mei Shu said, “Alright, I understand what you mean. I’ll go back now. If there’s anything else I need you to do, I’ll have Jiang Hai inform you.”
“Okay, Miss Mei Shu, please get in the car. We’ll drive you back!” Black Panther quickly signaled to the people behind him.
One of them immediately understood and quickly brought the car in front of Mei Shu. He lowered the window, revealing a pleasing smile, “Miss Mei Shu, please get in the car. I’ll be your chauffeur, and there won’t be any problems during this journey.”
Mei Shu nodded with a smile, “Alright.”
Black Panther quickly opened the car door for her and carefully placed his hand over her head to prevent her from accidentally bumping her head when getting into the car. He was indeed thoughtful.
These guys had really put in a lot of effort to gain Mei Shu’s trust.
Mei Shu returned to the hotel. Jiang Hai had already taken the waitress disguised as her back. They met in the room and went over the documents together.
Black Panther and his associates had a wide network of contacts. Collecting this information in Wendith wasn’t difficult for them at all. This was much more efficient than Mei Shu investigating bit by bit.
Taking out one of the documents, Jiang Hai furrowed his brows, “Miss Mei Shu, take a look at this newspaper photo. It’s a picture of Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu getting off the plane together back then. It seems their trip to Wendith wasn’t much of a secret.”
“The Lu family was in their prime back then. As the eldest son, Lu Si’s father naturally attracted a lot of attention. Looking at it this way, maybe the person who took this photo back then also stayed at this hotel with them.”
Mei Shu lightly tapped on the photo of Su Huai wearing sunglasses, pondering, “Now, take a look at this article.”
She took out another document and placed it on top, saying, “Here, there are photos of the banquet they held at this hotel after checking in. Su Ling and Yan Fu are also in them.”
Jiang Hai was puzzled, “Why arc there so many reports about Mr. and Mrs. Lu’s trip here? Didn’t we ask Black Panther to investigate the Beast and the accident?”
Mei Shu sighed, feeling helpless, “They met me today, and their attitude did a complete 180. With last night’s incident making such a big splash, I suspect they already know my identity. That’s why they rushed to supplement this information overnight. It’s a sign of their goodwill.”
Jiang Hai chuckled, “They want to gain your trust.”
Mei Shu said, “It’s not necessarily a bad thing. At least when it comes to certain matters, they’re much more convenient than us. After all, we were able to shake off Mr. Zhou’s men today, but we won’t be able to do it every time.”
“That’s true.” Jiang Hai continued to browse through the documents.
The information provided by Black Panther and his associates were reports that had circulated in the market back then. Some of these newspapers were already yellowed, and even the media behind them had long since closed down. It was indeed not easy to find these documents.
Mei Shu didn’t disappoint Black Panther’s efforts and intended to go through them from start to finish.
As lunchtime approached, Jiang Hai suggested going to eat first.
Mei Shu pulled out the bottom document and said, “No rush, I’ll finish reading this newspaper first.”
With that, she opened the newspaper, and even some dust fell from the yellowed pages..
