Chen Canaan finished his shower and came out of the bathroom to see Qiao Wen sitting cross-legged on the bed, with a book on his lap, and was taking a pen and lowering his head to write and draw on it, with a pair of handsome eyebrows locked, seemingly in meditation.
He came over and glanced into the book, saw that it was the names of several wealthy men, and said, "Still thinking about the Fifth Master?"
"Uh-huh." Jovian nodded.
Chen Canaan was not intimidated by the mysterious fifth master, still a look of thinking: "Whatever? The car to the mountain, we did not do anything, according to his statement, but also helped him to kill Lu Han Dong, I do not believe that he indiscriminately have to mess with us."
Qiao Wen frowned and shook his head, looking at the several names on the book, silent for a moment, looked up at him and said, "Brother Nan, what do you think it means since the Fifth Master found us because of this movie and the gossipy public opinion out there?"
Chen Canaan said, "Didn't he say that several amounts in the movie matched Lu Han Dong? He suspects that we have taken the books."
Jovian nodded and asked again, "What else does it mean beyond that?"
Chen Canaan looked at him blankly, "What else?"
Qiao Wen said, "The film shows Mr. Z as a mysterious rich businessman with a powerful background, and Master Five apparently thinks we're insinuating him."
Chen Canaan's eyes widened, "So Master Five's real identity is a rich merchant with a strong background?"
"Exactly." Jovian laughed softly, "While it's true that someone is now trying to use him to mess with us, it's not exactly true that he's in the dark and we're in the light."
Chen Canaan curiously approached him and looked at the names on his book, "But there are so many rich people, how can we be sure of who they really are?"
Jovian pointed to the names on the book, "First we can rule out Zihui's father."
Chen Canaan was not happy to hear this and snorted, "What's the reason to exclude the four-eyed boy's father? I think that Boss Lin is a ruthless character, weren't all his brothers-in-law driven away and all the Zhong family's properties fell into his hands? You can't harbor selfishness to see things just because you're good with Four Eyes."
Qiao Wen glanced at him and lost his smile, "Why are you even jealous of Zi Hui? It's not like he likes men."
Chen Canaan, of course, did not admit it and raised her head, "What am I doing being jealous of him? He's not as pretty as me, I just think you need to look at things objectively."
Qiao Wen laughed, "If Master Fifth was really Mr. Lin, he wouldn't have called to remind us and would have wanted us to help Zi Hui in the future."
"That's true." Chen Canaan nodded his head and sighed again, "But I see that Four Eyes is quite capable, and it is said that he is now starting to work on a supermarket, so he might be able to make more money than we can, so there is no need to help out."
Qiao Wen smiled and shook his head, "Alright, let's get down to business, excluding Lin Zhaoming, there are now five more suspicious candidates. Among them, the Zhang and Wang families, have no interactions with us." He crossed out the three names and continued, "There are two wives from the Li and Liu families who are on good terms with us, both movies have their sponsorships, and there's still the Zhou family's Zhou Chaozheng, who apart from wanting to buy land from us before, there hasn't been much interaction since then."
Chen Canaan nodded thoughtfully, "So it could be the Li and Liu families?"
"No," Qiao Wen shook his head and crossed the names of the two heads of the Li and Liu families, saying word for word, "The fifth master is Zhou Chaozheng."
Chen Canaan looked at him in shock, "Zhou Chaozheng? How can you be so sure?"
Qiao Wen said, "You've forgotten that earlier, Master Five's messenger said on the phone that Lu Handong died because Master Five wanted him to die, not because of a grudge against us, and that Master Five was just lending us a hand."
When Chen Canaan heard this, he spat, "Fuck, you were almost killed by Lu Han Dong, and in the end, we were just pawns. But how is this certain that it's Zhou Chaozheng?"
Qiao Wen looked at him and said, "Have you forgotten Sister Chi Chi? If it wasn't for her, how could we successfully find Lu Handong who was ready to run away?"
That night had gone so well, so smoothly that he had been feeling as if it were a play that had already been written, and now it seemed that he had indeed been right.
How could the paralyzed Su's father break the flower pot to inform them? Why did that photo of Lu Handong and Su Zhizhi happen to be right on the bedside? All of this is nothing more than someone making preparations in advance.
Chen Canaan's eyes widened, "If Zhou Chaozheng is really the fifth master, Sister Zhizhi must have been forced by him." Saying this, he was about to get out of bed, "I'll go ask Sister Zhizhi clearly with her right now."
"You're stupid!" Qiaowen hurriedly pulled him back, "Aren't you spooking the snakes?"
Chen Canaan said, "Sister Chi Chi must have been forced to be Zhou Chaozheng's pawn, we have to save her."
Jovian silently watched his distraught look.
Because of the figure of quiet, the villa did not ask the live-in maid, these months down, but wherever the two live in the villa, mostly in the next door to dine. Eat other people's soft mouth is not unreasonable, not to mention Su Zhizhi and very knowledgeable and gentle and friendly, but also signed their company, is the signboard and money tree of Wen Nan Film, and the two have long been sister and brother, Chen Canaan very much like this sister, now heard that the other side may be Zhou Chaozheng use of duress, naturally, is full of anger.
He thought for a moment and said, "Right now we don't have any evidence to prove that Zhou Chaozheng is the Fifth Master, and if we rashly show our cards to Sister Zhizhi, I'm afraid that we'll get her involved. Anyway, right now, we have to stabilize the Fifth Master's side first, pretend that we don't know anything, and find a way to find evidence that the Fifth Master is Zhou Chaozheng, as well as Lu Handong's ledger, and hand it over to the police, and there will be nothing left for us to do."
"But how to find it?"
Qiao Wen casually threw the book on the bedside table, "If we didn't know the identity of Master 5, it would of course be difficult to find evidence, but now that we have already guessed who it is, it would be much easier to just look for evidence directly from him. Not to mention that Zhou Chaozheng is a celebrity on Hong Kong Island, and is not exactly a low profile person, there will always be loopholes."
Chen Canaan nodded thoughtfully, and then joyfully grabbed his hand, "Xiao Qiao, why are you so smart? Lu Handong has been working for the Fifth Master for so many years without knowing the other party's true identity, you found the target in a flash."
Qiao Wen laughed, "It's also thanks to the person who took Lu Han Dong's ledger and secretly helped us make this movie. Of course, it's also thanks to Zhou Chaozheng throwing himself into the net in the right place." Saying that, he hooked out a smile, "In that case, it seems that Master Five isn't as powerful as he imagined."
Chen Canaan frowned and said, "You said that Zhou Chaozheng was from a famous family and had everything he wanted, why did he secretly do these unethical deeds?"
"One can never have too much money. Besides, some people probably like the feeling of manipulating everything behind their backs." Said shrugging and laying down with his hands on his head, "It's just a shame that I really don't like being manipulated."
"That's right." Chen Canaan lay down with him and hugged his waist, gazing at the fair declining face under the light with one mistake.
It was clearly still a face with the air of a teenager, but there was a certainty and calmness in his expression that transcended his age.
This was the Jovian he was so enamored with and trusted, and he hooked the corners of his mouth as he moved over to take the other man's lips.
The two have been together for so long, kissing is already a common occurrence, and rubbing guns is also an inevitable thing. Perhaps for fear of scaring Qiao Wen, Chen Canaan solved it by himself every time, but tonight he seemed to be extraordinarily agitated, and began to gasp for air as he kissed, his mind suddenly floating back to the last time he drank Lu Han Dong's wine and was helped by Qiao Wen in the bath tub.
While his mind was racing, he grabbed Qiaowen's hand and shoved it underneath himself, grunting in the other man's ear, "Xiao Qiao, help me!"
Originally, Qiao Wen had been kissed to the point of confusion, and with him hugging him like this to be pampered and playful, where there was still hesitation to squirm.
The big bed was soon on fire with ambiguous gasps.
The sea that round of the moon, perhaps by the indoor spring light blush, quietly into the clouds, only the sea breeze, unaware of the competition to the half-closed window to drill, flicked the floor curtains, for the indoor spring light to add another layer of ambiguity.
I do not know how long, a room charming before finally stop dissipating. The two sweaty lying on the pillow, face still has not dissipated redness.
Satisfied Chen Canaan squinted his eyes and looked at Qiao Wen, looking at him gasping for air in small breaths, looking like he had been overly bullied by himself, he curved his lips into a smile, turned around and cupped his face, and kissed him fiercely on the lips two more times.
Qiao Wen breathlessly pushed him, "Nan, I really can't, don't come back!"
Chen Canaan hemmed and hawed and let go of him, spraying hot air and asking in a muffled voice, "Xiao Qiao, are you comfortable?"
Jovian nodded perfunctorily.
Chen Canaan said, "I told you that I can definitely make you comfortable, and I'm comfortable too, much more comfortable than doing it yourself." Said suddenly thought of something as if, ahora got up, rubbing to run outside, "You wait, I'll go to my room to get something to show you."
Jovian raised his head slightly, looked at his still-refreshed back, and collapsed back onto the pillows as if discharging his strength.
This guy's energy is really scary, his own hand is almost ruined and he's acting like nothing happened.
The energetic someone quickly went and returned with a suspicious book in his hand - suspicious because this was not a book reader at all.
He climbed onto the bed, opened the book up, and said, "Little Joe, I had someone get a copy of this."
Qiaowen lifted his tired eyelids and swept his eyes, and the large-scale images on the book immediately made his pupils shake, saying, "...... What are you doing reading this?"
Chen Canaan said, "Of course I'm learning, you still don't know how men and men can get it right? I'll teach you."
Although he previously knew what was going on between men, but in order to understand in more detail, specifically let people get this book, can be said to have opened the door to a new world, the original men and men also so much to talk about.
He felt a great need to personally popularize Jovan's knowledge so that the two could take their relationship further.
Qiaowen's heart pounded, retracting his gaze from the book and holding his forehead, "No ...... used it, I know."
"You know?" Chen Canaan was shocked, suddenly remembering that he was from a different world and knew more than him originally, it wasn't strange to know such things. Just suddenly thought of something like, put the book aside, and asked tentatively, "Xiao Qiao, did you have a boyfriend before?"
Qiaowen lifted his eyelids to look at him with a smirk, and seeing his apprehensive expression, he was deliberately silent for a long time before saying, "Of course not."
Before coming to this world, he never dreamed that he would one day like men.
Chen Canaan heaved a sigh of relief and said, "You used to say that in your world, there is also a good brother like me, so I wondered if you guys ...... were."
Jovian reached out and pushed him down, laughing, "What are you thinking? Of course not."
Chen Canaan curved the corner of his mouth and lay down next to him, "So I'm your first boyfriend?"
Jovian nodded, "Uh-huh."
Chen Canaan was quiet for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Then when can we try"
Jovian looked over at him, and after a moment, laughed softly, backhanded the lamp off, and offered to put his arms around his shoulders, saying, "Give me some time to mentally prepare."
Chen Canaan said, "Are you afraid of pain? I read that more oil is good."
Jovian: "Okay, go to sleep!"
Chen Canaan hemmed and hawed and laughed badly, "Xiao Qiao, you're not shy, are you?"
"Shut up!"
"Okay!"
As if to show his generosity and calmness, the fifth master's side did not contact the two again soon, and this also gave Qiao Wen and Chen Canaan time to start investigating Zhou Chaozheng. The good thing is that although the fifth master is mysterious, the famous Zhou Chaozheng is not mysterious, he has to work and socialize and entertain, and most of the tycoons are not much different, it is not difficult to follow him and investigate his various habits and itinerary.
Because of the fear of complications, this time Qiao Wen did not invite Zhang Da Reporter, but spent a lot of money to find a professional from the gangs who was good at tracking. This person was born neither ugly nor beautiful, is a eyes forgettable, into the pile of people can not be pulled out of the image, very suitable for this kind of work.
Qiao Wen and Chen Canaan, on the other hand, are still working and living at the same pace as before - knowing full well that they too are being watched.
Returning to the villa in the evening, Jovian took the letters and newspapers out of the newspaper box, as he always did, and then returned to the house. Sitting down on the couch, he tossed the newspaper away, picked up a plain envelope, and drew out the letter inside.
This was the daily input of investigation information from the heavily paid gangster detective. He received these days, have carefully studied. Zhou Chaozheng is a busy man, mostly in Tsim Sha Tsui company office during the day, socializing quite a lot at night, political and business circles have a wide range of interactions, hobbies are horse running and golf, but usually only go on weekends.
He often live in the house, one is the Pacific Hill Villa, that is considered the main residence of the Zhou family, is living with his wife, but also only go back on weekends, more often than not with his lover to live in the Sai Kung District, a garden house, lover naturally more than one, Su Zhi Zhi is just one of them.
After more than a week of investigation, Qiao Wen found that Su Zhi Zhi did not go to his place to spend the night much, but a singer went there more frequently.
The remaining one, is just today investigated a high-end apartment, according to Mr. Detective squatting one night, Zhou Chao is exactly the night into the next morning out, in addition to a personal bodyguard, and then no one else.
The apartment was a pre-war Western building, inhabited by foreigners, with concierge security, and privacy was good. But for a tycoon like Zhou Chaozheng, this apartment is a little too inconspicuous, completely incomparable to the Zhou family's mid-level villa and Saigon's garden houses.
Qiao Wen glanced at the calendar on the wall, tomorrow, Saturday, was the day Zhou Chaozheng came home.
He looked to Chen Canaan, who was carefully observing Zhou Chaozheng's photo, and laughed, "Brother Nan, it's time to utilize your specialty."
"Huh?" Chen Canaan looked at him.
Qiao Wen held up the picture of Zhou Chaozheng's apartment and said, "I suspect that this apartment is hiding Zhou Chaozheng's secret, let's go explore it tomorrow night."
