I have an all-knowing mirror

Chapter 20 We're keeping a ghost in our house!
I looked at the metal briefcase that had been abandoned in the roadside green belt and was already opened.

At first, Qianhe Shanghe and the other two did not think that this was the metal briefcase they were looking for, and they looked around for a while.

After all, the metal briefcase the family had asked them to find contained Tian Shan snow lotus.

The metal briefcase in front of them was empty and had been left on the roadside.

But after observing for a while, the expressions of Chizuru and the other two changed from indifference to thoughtfulness, and then to disbelief.

Finally, with a whoosh, he arrived in front of the golden briefcase that had been left on the green belt.

Whoosh! Just then, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man walked over from not far away, looking at the metal briefcase on the green belt with the same disbelief.

"A thousand cranes gather."

Qianhe Shanghe immediately recognized the middle-aged man's identity. As the contact person, he knew all the information about the middle-aged man.

"Are you the family's contacts?"

Qianhe Qi looked at Qianhe Shanghe and the other two.

Silence fell immediately.

After receiving explanations and orders from the Japanese nation, he realized that the contact person, Chizuru Kazekawa, with whom he had recently had a pleasant conversation and even made plans to meet at the next cherry blossom festival, was a fake.

These three people in front of you are the real ones.

"The suitcase has been opened."

Chizuru was in a state of utter confusion, staring at the metal briefcase in the green belt, unsure of what to say.

He carried this suitcase on his escape, fleeing from the Tianshan Mountains in the north to Shanghai, enduring countless dangers along the way.

Now, the suitcase has been opened, and the Tian Shan snow lotus inside has vanished.

Collecting his thoughts, Chizuru immediately picked up the metal briefcase and carefully examined it.

The three people beside Qianhe Shanghe felt a sinking feeling in their hearts when they saw Qianhe Qi being so cautious.

It was obvious that the metal suitcase in front of them was the metal suitcase they were looking for.

A moment later, Chizuru Qi put down his suitcase, looked at Chizuru Uesugi and the other two, and said in a deep voice, "I'll explain to the family."

The Chizuru family not only had Chizuru Uekawa and the other two search for the metal briefcase using the location tracking, but also had Chizuru Ki, who was already preparing to leave Shanghai, return to search for the metal briefcase.

The purpose of doing this was because they were worried that Chizuru and the other two were not strong enough.

The metal briefcase has been found, but the snow lotus is gone.

Meanwhile, in Kyushu, Japan.

The atmosphere inside the Chizuru family's shrine was unusually oppressive.

Especially the old man sitting in the head seat, dressed in traditional Yin-Yang robes, wearing a tall black hat, with white hair and beard, exuded a profound spiritual aura like the ocean, making everyone else in the room afraid to look him in the eye.

This elderly man with white hair and beard is Chizuru Ichiyo, the great Onmyoji of the Chizuru family.

He is also the true leader of the Chizuru family, a renowned and powerful figure in Fusang, possessing the great ability to communicate with spirits, summon the dead, and manipulate souls.

At this moment, Chizuru Ichiyo's heart was not at peace. One thing after another, one detail after another, kept flashing through his mind.

The Tianshan Snow Lotus was discovered in the Tianshan Mountains in the northern part of Xia Kingdom. It was then taken away by Qian Heqi and fled to Shanghai. Finally, the three family contacts met with a hotel in Shanghai and transferred the Tianshan Snow Lotus there.

However, things took a turn for the worse at the Far Shore Hotel where the meeting took place.

A mysterious person impersonated the contact person of the Qianhe family and successfully tricked Qianhe Qi out of the Tianshan Snow Lotus.

This mysterious person knew the details of the Chizuru family's plan to transfer the snow lotus.

They knew the room where the meeting would take place.

They knew the secret code for the meeting.

He knows the Chizuru family inside and out.

They even knew the combination to the metal briefcase.

Chizuru Ichiyo's gaze turned cold as she looked at the eight family elders on the field.

It's like we're keeping a ghost in our house!

Chizuru Ichiyo couldn't think of any other reason besides this one.

How could an outsider possibly know so much about the plan?

Especially the combination to the metal briefcase? Very few people know it, just these eight people here.

Chizuru Ichiyo never expected that there would be a traitor among the eight elders of the family.
The eight elders are the cornerstone of the Chizuru family, and some of them are even older than Chizuru Ichiyo.

Chizuru Ichiyo genuinely did not want to doubt these eight elders.

But after eliminating all other possibilities, the only remaining possibility, however inconceivable or unbelievable, is the truth!
"Tell me, who ordered you to do this? The Matsukawa family? Or the Hanasaki family?"

Chizuru Ichiyo spoke slowly, her tone sinister.

Both the Matsukawa family and the Hanasaki family have a grudge against the Chizuru family and are enemies.

If they were to receive news of the Tianshan Snow Lotus and learn that Qianhe Yiye could heal his original injuries by obtaining it, they would certainly stop them at all costs.

The shrine was deathly silent.

The eight family elders were speechless.

In fact, it wasn't just Chizuru Ichiyo who suspected there was a mole among them.

Even they themselves have this doubt.

Otherwise, how can we explain everything that happened in the Xia Kingdom?

Shanghai, the "Magic City" of Xia Kingdom.

Inside a coffee shop.

Four people, including Qianhe Shanghe and Qianhe Qi, gathered here.

Chizuru Saki has informed the family that the metal briefcase was opened, not by force, but by the correct combination.

Now they just need to wait for the family's next order.

"Who is it?"

"Qianhe Shanghe said in a low voice."

At this moment, he had roughly figured out what had happened.

The Tianshan snow lotus was snatched away, and the person who snatched it knew them extremely well.

Qianhe Qi remained silent.

"Could this be the work of the Xia Kingdom government?"

Chizuru Takahashi suddenly spoke up.

"impossible."

A thousand cranes shook their heads as they went up the river.

"Yes, it couldn't be the official Xia Kingdom government."

Chizuru nodded in agreement.

If the Xia Kingdom officials really knew so much about their transport plan, Qian Heqi would have been captured back in the North.

How could they possibly drag it all the way to Shanghai and then let him leave?

"Let's wait and see what the family decides."

"Qianhe Shanghe said in a low voice."

The other three did not continue their conversation.

Central District of Shanghai is the most bustling and prosperous area in the city.

It attracts tourists from all over the world.

Su Yuan walked along the bustling street.

After leaving the West District, Su Yuan did not take any transportation, but instead leisurely made his way to the Central District.

Jinshan Villa District is located in the eastern suburbs. It's convenient to travel from the western district to the central district and back to the eastern district.

"By this time, Chizuru Qi and the three contacts should have gathered together at the Top Star Coffee Shop, waiting for the Chizuru family's next instructions."

Su Yuan thought to himself.

Dingxing Coffee Shop is the coffee shop near the metal suitcase that Su Yuan discarded.

According to the information given by the gray mirror, Chizuru and the other three would be waiting there at this time.

"The final step of the plan."

Su Yuan flipped his right hand and took out a cell phone.

This phone certainly didn't belong to Su Yuan, but rather to an international, dark-skinned friend he had just passed by.

With practiced ease, Su Yuan unlocked his phone, entered the password, adjusted his voice, and dialed the police.

"Hello, is this the police? Yes, I want to call the police!"
