Just as he was thinking, someone quietly sat beside him. Elder Gu, who suddenly reacted, was shocked. Coupled with the guilt of being a thief, it made him show an abnormal reaction.

“Why do you have such a big reaction, Elder Hu? It’s as if you’ve done something wrong.” Elder Qiao smiled and looked at him with a very subtle gaze. “Or is it all because you didn’t rest well last night?”

As soon as these words were spoken, Elder Hu, who was still tasting the delicacies, instantly froze in his seat. The hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly and even dropped the things on the table. “It’s you, right, Elder Qiao?”

“All, what are you talking about? Why don’t 1 understand at all?” Elder Qiao asked.

“Elder Qiao, do you really not understand what I’m saying? Only someone who knows what happened last night can ask such a thing directly.” Elder Hu turned to look at him. His gaze became sharp, as if he was aggressive. “How did you know about that?”

“I think you really didn’t rest well last night. You’re already starting to spout nonsense. Can you tell me what happened last night?” Elder Qiao’s face was filled with innocence. He could not understand what the other party was saying at all. “1 asked if you didn’t rest well. It was just a joking concern. 1 really didn’t expect you to have such a big reaction.”

Looking at the pitiful expression on Elder Qiao’s face, Elder Hu gradually began to believe him. “No… nothing. I’m really sorry. 1 misunderstood you.”

“It’s nothing.” Elder Qiao waved his hand indifferently. “I know that Eider Hu has been busy with a lot of things recently. As long as someone gets tired, they will remember a lot of things incorrectly.”

As the two of them conversed, the other three elders walked out of the room one after another.

Seeing that more and more people were coming over, Elder Qiao immediately ended the current topic, afraid that others would hear it. After breakfast, everyone did not interact much with each other. They all returned to their rooms and busied themselves with their work.

Just as no one was paying attention, Elder Qiao changed the direction he was walking in. Instead of returning to his room, he walked over to a wall. He clenched one hand slightly and knocked lightly three times on the upper part of the wall.

As the sound of the three formations fell, a door was opened from the inside. Eider Qiao turned around and roughly looked around. After confirming that there was no one else in the hall, he walked straight into the secret room.

In the pitch-black environment, Elder Qiao slowly groped his way forward in such a corridor. Finally, he entered the innermost room. To everyone’s surprise, there was a surveillance video of the entire villa in this room.

The two people sitting in front of the big screen were also very familiar. They were Ye Ying and Yu Feng.

“Young Master Ye, I’m here to confirm that they’ve all returned to their rooms. There’s no tail following them. I’ve already sent the letter you gave me to Elder Hu’s room last night and confirmed that he saw it.”

Elder Qiao changed his previous indifferent att.i.tude and said respectfully, “1 only mentioned this slightly during breakfast. There’s something wrong with his reaction. This fully proves that there must be something wrong with him.”

“Of course. I was already suspicious of him from the beginning. Otherwise, 1 wouldn’t have set up this trap to find some direct evidence and let him reveal his flaws.” Ye Ying nodded slightly and stood up. “It’s all thanks to Uncle Qiao’s help this time. Otherwise, my plan wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.”

“Little Ye, look at what you’re saying. Your father and 1 have been brothers for many years. I watched you grow up. You’re treating me like an outsider.”

Elder Qiao also put away his original face and revealed a benevolent smile. “1 can only say that our relations.h.i.+p is hidden very well. Even the other elders of the mercenary group don’t know. This time, we made use of this to successfully reach this step..”
