Start inheriting a mercenary group

255 Suburban Teahouse in the Rain
Hanshuang shook his head and poured out all his uneasiness and anxiety to Lu Ting. She knew that Lu Ting was a smart and decisive person, and he would definitely be able to find some clues from this matter.

Lu Ting was silent for a while, and then said: "There must be many remnants of the Black Eyes Alliance in Country R. We need to find these remnants and pry out some clues about the Black Eyes Alliance from their mouths."

Hanshuang nodded after hearing this. She thought this was a good method.

But she also knows that this is not easy, because the Black Eyes Alliance is a very mysterious organization. They are hidden deep and difficult to discover.

Lu Ting continued: "At the same time, we must also understand the power and capabilities of the Black Eyes Alliance. Only in this way can we make a better plan to rescue Mr. Hodder's son."

Hanshuang couldn't help but feel worried after hearing this. She knows that the Black Eyes Alliance is a very powerful organization, and their power cannot be compared to an incompetent redemption mercenary. But she also knows that now is not the time to hesitate and shrink, they must face this challenge bravely.

"Okay." Hanshuang took a deep breath and said firmly, "I will do my best to find clues to the Black Eyes Alliance."

Lu Ting looked at Han Shuang's firm eyes and couldn't help but feel a little moved. He knew Hanshuang was very good, and he admired her courage and determination.

"I believe you." Lu Ting said with a smile, "You will definitely find clues."

Although their conversation was brief, it was full of trust and encouragement.

In the days that followed, Lu Ting and Han Shuang began to conduct investigations across country R.

They traveled to every corner of the city, looking for traces of the Black Eyed Alliance. Although they encountered many difficulties and dangers, they never gave up.

The afternoon sun shines through the sparse clouds and onto a country road.

The trail is lined with lush trees, their leaves swaying gently in the breeze, as if telling unknown stories.

In the distant fields, cattle and sheep grazed the grass leisurely, and occasionally made low mooing sounds, adding a bit of vitality to the quiet afternoon.

On this slightly remote path, Lu Ting walked forward with firm steps.

He felt that there was some unusual atmosphere in this direction, which was the clue of the Black Eyes Alliance that he wanted to pursue.

After walking for a while, Lu Ting came to a quaint teahouse.

The wooden door of the teahouse is half open, revealing the faint fragrance of tea and warm light, as if inviting passers-by to come in and have a rest.

As he pushed the door open, a soft bell rang, announcing the arrival of the new guest.

The environment in the teahouse is very quiet, with several wooden tables and chairs neatly placed, and a wooden bookshelf in the corner filled with all kinds of books.

The sun shines through the latticework on the windows, casting beautiful light and shadow. The air is filled with the fragrance of tea, which relaxes tense nerves unconsciously.

A middle-aged man came forward with a gentle smile on his face, giving people a sense of intimacy.

The man was wearing a plaid shirt and a pair of dark trousers, looking very neat.

He took the initiative to ask Lu Ting what tea he wanted, with a hint of gentlemanly politeness in his tone.

"Let's have a cup of your special tea." Lu Ting casually ordered a cup of tea, then found a seat by the window and sat down.

He noticed a bookshelf in the corner of the teahouse filled with books, so he got up and walked over.

There are many kinds of books on the bookshelf, ranging from novels to history to popular science. Lu Ting casually took out a book and flipped through a few pages. His eyes suddenly fell on a line in the book: "Dark Eyes Alliance, one of the largest underground organizations in the world."

Lu Ting was shocked that this book actually mentioned the Black Eye Alliance. He quickly read it carefully, hoping to get more information about the Black-Eye Alliance.

Meanwhile, the weather outside changed. The originally clear sky was gradually filled with dark clouds, and a light rain began to fall.

The raindrops hitting the windows made a crisp sound, adding a bit of poetry to this quiet teahouse.

At this moment, a car slowly drove into the open space in front of the teahouse.

A woman got out of the car. She was wearing a black dress and a white windbreaker. She looked noble and mysterious.

She looked up at the teahouse's sign, then stepped inside.

Upon seeing this, the teahouse owner stepped forward and greeted: "Miss, please come this way."

He led the way for the woman and arranged a seat by the window. The woman smiled, thanked her, and sat down.

She took off the hat of her windbreaker, revealing a delicate face. Her eyes were as deep as the sea, exuding an indescribable charm.

Lu Ting subconsciously glanced back at the woman, and their eyes met in the air for a moment.

He felt that this woman seemed a little unusual, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious.

Miss Nalin is obviously a frequent visitor to this teahouse, and the boss showed a cordial and familiar attitude when talking to her. He smiled and asked her what flavor of tea she wanted to drink today. It seemed that every cup of tea here carried the deep friendship between them.

"Just the same." Miss Nalin said with a smile. There was a hint of lazy charm in her smile, which made people want to take another look.

"Okay, I'll prepare it for you right away." The boss nodded slightly, turned and walked backstage, preparing Miss Nalin's tea with ease.

The atmosphere in the teahouse seemed quiet and peaceful, and the light rain outside the window gently tapped on the window, making a pleasant sound.

The raindrops slid down the windowpane, forming tiny streaks of water, making the outside world seem like a dream.

Lu Ting stood by the bookshelf, his eyes lingering on Miss Nalin for a moment.

Just as he was about to return to his seat, Miss Nalin suddenly raised her head and met his eyes.

She smiled faintly, without much expression on her face, but there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"We met at Shanqiao Company yesterday." Miss Nalin said proactively, with a hint of doubt in her tone, "I didn't expect to meet here again today." Lu Ting nodded, and he did not deny his Identity and purpose.

He could feel the powerful aura exuding from Miss Nalin, but he did not feel intimidated or flinched by it. Instead, he felt as if he had found a key figure who could solve the mystery of the Dark Eyes.

"Yes, I met you at Shanqiao Company yesterday." Lu Ting replied, "I came here to find some clues about the Black Eyes Alliance."

Miss Nalin's expression didn't change much, but there was a turmoil in her heart.

She didn't expect that she would meet someone related to the Black Eyes Alliance in this remote teahouse, which caught her off guard.

"Do you have anything to do with the Black Eyes Alliance?" Miss Nalin's tone was a little wary. She didn't understand why Lu Ting suddenly appeared here and claimed to be looking for clues about the Black Eyes Alliance.

Lu Ting did not answer her question directly, but asked in a relaxed tone: "What about you? What do you think of the Black Eyes Alliance?"

Miss Nalin did not answer immediately. She picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

She stared at Lu Ting through the rim of the teacup, as if examining his true intentions.

The atmosphere between the two became subtle and tense, and the sound of rain outside the window became the only background music.

Lu Ting observed the changes in Miss Nalin's expression and couldn't help but feel an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

He felt that this woman seemed to be hiding many secrets, and he needed to uncover these secrets step by step.

Lu Ting walked up to Miss Nalin's table and asked with a smile: "Miss, you seem to be the only one here. Can I sit down and drink tea together?"

Miss Nalin raised her head and looked at Lu Ting, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was hesitant.

She didn't want to share her tea time with strangers, but she couldn't refuse outright. Deep in her heart, she always felt that Lu Ting's appearance seemed to have some indescribable fate.

"If you are willing to pay for the tea, you can sit down." Miss Nalin said softly, with a hint of coldness in her tone.

"Of course." Lu Ting nodded and sat down immediately. He felt that this deal was a good deal. As long as he could get some clues about the Black Eyes Alliance from Miss Nalin, the tea money was nothing at all.

The two sat opposite each other, and the sound of rain outside the window accompanied the tranquility in the teahouse, creating a unique atmosphere. The boss brought a pot of tea, put it on the table and left, leaving the two of them alone.

"I wonder how effective your interrogation of Mr. Watanabe will be. How long will he be sentenced?" Lu Ting asked tentatively, hoping to get some information about Watanabe from Miss Nalin.

Miss Nalin did not answer immediately, but lowered her head and gently stirred the tea leaves in the cup.

She knew that Watanabe was a very important clue and could not be revealed easily. But she also felt that Lu Ting didn't seem to be simple. He seemed to have a deep understanding and interest in the Black Eyes Alliance.

"This is confidential." Miss Naline finally said, "I can't tell you how long Mr. Watanabe will be sentenced."

Lu Ting smiled after hearing this. He felt that Miss Nalin's answer was a bit perfunctory. He decided to take a more direct approach to getting answers.

"I'm afraid Mr. Watanabe has left Country R by now." Lu Ting said with certainty, as if everything was under his control.

Miss Nalin raised her head and looked at Lu Ting. She said nothing, but the twinkling light in her eyes revealed her surprise and confusion.

She didn't understand how Lu Ting learned this information, which made her begin to re-evaluate the man sitting across from her.

Lu Ting noticed the changes in Miss Nalin and couldn't help feeling a little proud. He felt that his guess was correct. Miss Nalin must know more about the Black Eyes Alliance. Now, he just needs to wait patiently for the opportunity to get more information from her.

Just as the atmosphere between the two became increasingly tense, the boss suddenly brought a pot of hot tea, breaking the silence. He put the teapot on the table and said softly: "This is the flavor you often drink, Miss Nalin. Please use it slowly."

After saying that, the boss turned and left. Although his voice was not high, it was clearly heard by Lu Ting and Miss Na Lin. Their eyes fell on the newly served hot tea at the same time, as if they were thinking about the hidden meaning behind this pot of tea.

Lu Ting glanced at his boss, trying to find some clues from him about his relationship with Miss Nalin. However, the boss's behavior seemed very ordinary and nothing unusual, as if he was just an ordinary teahouse owner and had no special relationship with Miss Nalin.

Lu Ting sighed secretly, feeling a little disappointed. He originally thought that there was some unknown connection between this teahouse and Miss Nalin, but now it seems that this is just an ordinary teahouse, and the boss has no special relationship with Miss Nalin.

"It's raining, otherwise the teahouse's business will be better." Lu Ting looked up at the drizzle outside the window and said with emotion.

When the boss heard what Lu Ting said, he shook his head and replied with a smile: "Sir, you are not right. Even if it rains, as long as Miss Nalin comes, our business will improve."

This sentence seemed to be unintentional, but it shocked both Miss Nalin and Lu Ting.

Miss Nalin was surprised by the boss's words. She did not expect that she had such an important position in the boss's heart.

Lu Ting was thinking about the meaning behind this sentence. He felt that it seemed to be a hint, suggesting that there was some kind of special relationship between Miss Nalin and the Black-Eye Alliance.

Lu Ting turned to look at Miss Nalin, with a meaningful smile on his lips.

His eyes stayed on Miss Nalin for a moment, and then he said: "It seems that I have really good luck today. I unexpectedly met Miss Nalin here and heard such interesting things."

Miss Nalin did not answer. She just stared at Lu Ting quietly, as if guessing the meaning of his words.

She didn't understand how Lu Ting got the information, or what he wanted to do. But she felt that Lu Ting's appearance was not accidental. He seemed to be pursuing the truth of something.

The atmosphere between the two became subtle and tense, and the sound of rain outside the window and the boss's words seemed to become background music. Lu Ting took a deep breath, knowing that his chance had come. He decided to take a more direct approach to get the information he wanted.

"Miss Nalin, I heard that you have encountered some troubles recently." Lu Ting said bluntly, "If you need help, I can provide you with some support."

Miss Nalin was stunned. She did not expect that Lu Ting would say such words directly.

Just as the atmosphere between the two became increasingly tense, the sound of a car engine suddenly sounded outside the window.

The two turned around and saw a black car slowly driving into the small square in front of the teahouse.

The car door opened, and a muscular, yellow-haired man stepped out of the car. (End of chapter)
