Chapter 183 Going around in circles

When Gu Mingyue heard Guan Youliang's words, an idea suddenly flashed in her mind!

Oh my god, it can't be what she thinks...

Gu Mingyue remembered the suicide note left by Zhu Chunsheng. In addition to stating that the Japanese were building a base on the mountain, the letter also mentioned another thing.

Those were the two people who were fighting on the cliff that year.

One is the owner of the imperial green bracelet that is still preserved in the space, and the other is the person who was pushed off the cliff by him.

In an instant, Gu Mingyue sorted out everything.

Assume that Guan Youliang was the person who was pushed off the cliff.

The original owner's father was the contact person he entrusted to deliver the message.

The people behind Boss Zhou have been looking for the wooden box, and the list inside is exactly what Guan Youliang hid at the risk of his life.

Afterwards, the original owner's father died and the matter was left unresolved.

It was not until Gu Mingyue arrived that he accidentally dug out the wooden box and found the list.

As fate would have it, he found the suicide note at a scrap collection station, got acquainted with Boss Zhou, and became enemies with Wang Bichang.

During this time, she diverted everyone's attention, cleared herself of suspicion, and left everyone's sight.

Now, after going around in circles, I’m back to the starting point!

Gu Mingyue couldn't help but smile bitterly, wondering if all this trouble was in vain.

Soon, she let herself go, thinking that her efforts were not in vain. At least, she avoided a lot of risks.

Just imagine, if she did nothing, perhaps by the time Gu Mingde was spreading the word that their family had gold, the crisis would have already come to a head.

How could it be possible to be so peaceful as it is now?

If she didn't make an effort, perhaps she would be targeted before she found the location of the base and looked up the roster.

Once the identity of the original owner's father is found out, with the power of those people, they can just throw a basin of dirty water on him, and he will never be able to wash it off even if he jumps into the Yellow River.

On the contrary, she does things secretly without anyone noticing.

Perhaps this is what is called 'there is a destiny in the dark'.

Fortunately, the timing is right.

Gu Mingyue felt that her guess was almost right, and her heart was at ease. At least she no longer had to worry about Guan Youliang's identity causing trouble.

I looked up at him and finally understood what he meant by his persistence in staying in the mountains.

It may be that he was always thinking about the base in his subconscious mind, and had been searching hard for it, but he couldn't remember what he was looking for.

When I thought of him wandering aimlessly in the mountains alone, without direction and unable to find his way home, but still driven by a sense of responsibility and never giving up for all these years.

She was deeply moved and felt that it must be the power of faith.

It was rare that she said to him kindly, "This is what 'surviving a great disaster will bring good fortune'. Look, you settled down in Gujia Village, met my uncle and his family, and you have a happy person like me. Aren't you very happy?"

Well, in the end, I still have to praise myself in a roundabout way.

Guan Youliang's eyes widened, shocked by the girl's shamelessness. How could she have the nerve to say such a thing? He couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure?"

Gu Mingyue said shamelessly, "Of course, am I not good to you? Hmm?"

It only took a second to coax him and he turned hostile.

Guan Youliang immediately changed his tone and said, "Okay, it's fine. It couldn't be better. It would be even better if you could bully me less."

Gu Mingyue glared at him, "You have a lot to ask for. I'm just worried that you'll be lonely, right?"

How could Guan Youliang not know? He could naturally tell whether others were really teasing him or deliberately picking on him.

Even though he always secretly criticizes Mingyue's actions, in fact, he has long regarded her as his sister.

Hearing this, he handed her the key hanging around his neck and said, "If something happens to me, there are still some belongings left in the house. You can take them all. It's a reward for your company. Don't think it's too little. They are all good things, especially the fox fur. If I turn it into a coat, it will look great on you."

Gu Mingyue pretended to be unhappy and complained, "You have such a good thing, but you didn't give it to me earlier. I think you are not sincere. Don't worry, let alone saying that nothing happened, even if something really happened, I will go to you from time to time to criticize you. Who told you to hide your intentions from me?"

Guan Youliang always felt that he was a loner. Even though he became a militia captain and was familiar with the villagers, it was only superficial acquaintance.

In fact, there are only a few families that are really close to me: Uncle Lin, Gu Laoliu, the village chief's family, and Mingyue.

To be honest, I can't bear to do that.

But he could tell the leader's expression clearly, and the look he gave him just now was not very friendly.

There was a sense of taboo in the familiarity, which made him feel very uneasy.

I had originally planned to cut off my relationship with Mingyue, but I didn't expect that this girl, who is usually so smart, would become stubborn at the critical moment, which made me anxious and touched.

But Gu Mingyue was not as good as Guan Youliang thought.

She was only relieved because she guessed his identity, but she is not a noble person.

But there was no way to say this, so I could only say firmly, "You know me, I always keep my word, don't try to hide, you can't hide."

The double entendre was also meant to remind him not to have any bad thoughts, as keeping stable was more important than anything else now.

Gu Mingyue believed that as long as she got the roster, everything would be revealed.

Sure enough, not long after, Shen Qianzhong came out in a hurry...

Facing Guan Youliang again, she couldn't hide her excitement. She patted him on the shoulder and kept repeating, "It's okay, it's okay..."

Gu Mingyue finally felt relieved and asked, "Chief Shen, what happened to you?"

Shen Qianzhong had no way to explain for the time being, so he just said, "I'm glad I found something. This time it's all thanks to you. I'll definitely credit you for the credit, and you'll definitely get a lot of rewards."

Gu Mingyue declined, "Don't say that. If I really want to thank you, I should thank Damao. Otherwise, how could I have come here over the mountains and hills? But... speaking of this, I do have an unreasonable request."

"You said."

Gu Mingyue took the opportunity to say, "There is something that I can't get over no matter how much I think about it. I am also afraid, but still..."

Seeing her hesitating, Shen Qianzhong thought it was something difficult. "Just tell me what's the matter. Don't worry, as long as I can do it, I will do it without hesitation. Even if I can't do it, I will try my best to help you."

Whether the other party was being polite or sincere, Gu Mingyue didn't care.

Now that the cards are known, there is no point for her to stick to the list.

Tying everything together, the only advantage she had over others was the suicide note.

Apart from her, no one else in the world would know about the treasure map. Fortunately, she could take advantage of this information gap to maximize her own interests.

He carefully took out the list and said, "I found this by accident in the big clock at home. I didn't dare to make it public before because of the status of those people, but I couldn't get over it. Now, I want to take this opportunity to give it to you, hoping that I can use your hands to clean up those national parasites. I also hope that you can forgive my timidity."

Shen Qianzhong took the list casually, opened it, and his expression instantly became serious.
