205 Chapter 205 Escape

“I….” As Qiao Lansheng said this, the sound of fighting suddenly came from outside. The two looked at each other and quickly looked out the window.

They saw Zhou Huaiming rus.h.i.+ng in with several times more people than their men. In just a short while, more than half of their men were killed.

When the young master saw this, he was so angry that he wanted to give Qiao Lansheng a hard slap. It seemed like an inexperienced person couldn’t be put in an important position, no matter how smart they were. However, he knew that now was not the time to be angry.

He immediately pushed the bookcase aside, opened a five-foot tall, half-meter-wide sliding door, and quickly jumped in.

Qiao Lansheng immediately chased after him. The young master, who was about to close the door, hesitated for a moment before letting him in. He then closed the door and said, “Remember, your sister is still in my hands.”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and ran into the tunnel.

Qiao Lansheng was stunned for a moment, but he quickly understood what he meant. He was warning her not to sell him out if he was caught, or he would not be able to protect his sister, Qiao Lanlan.

To be honest, he was only using Qiao Lanlan. If it weren’t for her, the Qiao family wouldn’t have fallen from grace and turned him into a stray dog.

Just as he was in a daze, he heard footsteps coming from outside. He quickly headed down the tunnel and chased after the young master.

Zhou Huaiming came in and was surprised to see the empty house. “Search. There’s an 80% chance of a tunnel in this house. But be careful. ”

“Yes.” Everyone responded and immediately got to work, soon finding the entrance to the tunnel.

“Cover your face and bring a torch in,” Zhou Huaiming cautioned. “Remember to be careful.”

Afterwards, the person standing at the tunnel entrance immediately covered his face and rushed in with a torch; four more people went down after him.

Seeing this, Zhou Huaiming walked to the bookcase and began to flip through the books, trying to see if there was anything of value left behind.

He only found five accounting books, but many things were recorded in them. He could read the words on them as they weren’t encrypted, and he immediately sent more people to raid the house.

Two of his men returned from the tunnel not long after, but they only had Qiao Lansheng in their hands. The other three continued after the young master.

Zhou Huaiming stepped forward and grabbed Qiao Lansheng’s chin to force him to look up. He smiled and said, “Oh, you were abandoned by Su Mingtang, the seventh heir of the Su family?”

Qiao Lansheng was shocked. He had never thought that Zhou Huaiming would know who his master was.

However, the shock was only momentary and was quickly covered up.

Unfortunately, Zhou Huaiming had been staring at him intently. He was used to interrogating all kinds of criminals, so Qiao Lansheng’s surprise confirmed his guess.

However, it was impossible to arrest him without sufficient evidence, so he asked again, “Tell me, where did he run off to, or does he have a place to stay?”

“I don’t know,” Qiao Lansheng immediately replied. He really didn’t know.

He hadn’t been with his master for a long time and had only just gained his young master’s trust before the Qiao family’s incident. Otherwise, the Qiao family wouldn’t have ended up in such a state.

“Are you sure? I don’t think a weak scholar like you can withstand the infamous 18 tortures in prison.”

“I really don’t know,”

“Then tell me what you know.”

Qiao Lansheng didn’t reply and didn’t pay him any more attention. There were so many of the young master’s people here, and he didn’t believe the young master would abandon him.

“Take him away. Remember to interrogate him properly.” Zhou Huaiming ordered.

He continued searching the house. After confirming that there was no further evidence, he gave up. It seemed that this seventh young master was really cunning.
