After the villain was reborn, he found out that he had a childhood sweetheart.

These crimes do not include murder.

We can make the bold assumption that there is actually a human life on his body, and he reached some kind of agreement to go to jail to avoid a worse fate.

Lin Yun couldn't help but look stern. If that was the case, he must not be let off. Not to mention that successfully exposing the eldest grandson would cause a great blow to the Lin family... Lin Yun was not a saint, but if his ability allowed, a normal person would not refuse the opportunity to punish evil and promote good.

……

The school history museum opened on the day.

Lin Yun and Xu Jing walked in with their student cards swiped.

Brother Yuan Kai ran up to Lin Yun and flirted with him, which provided Lin Yun with a direction for investigation. Originally, Lin Yun only thought that the man who asked Du Xintong out of the school might be someone in the school related to the Lin family. In this case, he might as well take a look at the relevant video records of various school activities during that period.

Now you can go straight to the drama club's booth... Going straight in is not a good idea, your intention will be too obvious, so just pretend to see something else and go around in a circle.

But I unexpectedly met a little pig.

158. Will a Cyber ​​Taoist dream of an electronic flag? (3000)

Lin Xiangling lacks experience in doing anything wrong. She has experienced enough suffering, but it has not faded her kindness. Her personal habits are also very good, and she believes in not doing evil, no matter how small.

In contrast, Li Canglin had obviously done a lot of sneaky things. After meeting Lin Yun, he did not secretly investigate at all, but was surprised to encounter the person he was investigating. He bowed to him with a smile: "Senior Lin Yun, good morning!"

"Hello... Hey, you guys are here to visit the school history museum too?" Lin Yun's smile revealed a hint of surprise, but his eyes were mainly on the little pig. "Have you become familiar with her?"

"Well, I, we..." Lin Xiangling was a little at a loss for words. In order to avoid being exposed yesterday, she ran away from the club activity room. Logically, she should not know Li Canglin. This move obviously gave rise to suspicion of being exposed.

Fortunately, Li Canglin responded quickly: "Oh, actually we are from the same hometown. After having lunch with Senior Sister Qianxi and the others yesterday, I came to see Senior Sister Xiangling."

"Oh--"

Lin Yun drew out his tone, his eyes wandering between the two of them, and finally retracting them.

"Okay, then you guys play first. Miss Xu and I will go do some business."

Little Pig didn't know that they were investigating Du Xintong's case, so Lin Yun decided not to involve her in this matter... As for Lin Xiangling's slightly stiff expression, it must be because Li Canglin was lying.

Although Taoist Cang Lin is very familiar with the various rural areas of Beicang, her ancestors for three generations were all locals of the old city of Beicang. How could she be a fellow villager of Lin Xiangling?

This can only mean that the two of them already knew each other in advance and tried to cover up this fact.

hiss……

Lin Yun narrowed his eyes and watched them running away, like two groundhogs running into the yard next door in the middle of the night to conduct a landmine detonation experiment.

something wrong.

In order to prevent the little pig from being led astray, Lin Yun quickly sent a message and asked Teng Haolong to send a reliable subordinate to check out what Li Canglim was doing outside of school.

Don't let Li Canglim take the little pig to rob tombs or something like that... Of course, Lin Yun believes that with the little pig's character, it probably wouldn't do such a thing, so he's just being safe.

Leave Lin Yun's sight.

Lin Xiangling's heart was still beating fast.

There is an inexplicable feeling of guilt.

Fortunately, the school history museum of Delin Middle School is beautifully renovated and has rich content. After walking for a while, Lin Xiangling's attention was diverted and she looked at the things around her intently.

The corridor they were touring used time as the axis to display one wonderful moment after another. Since Li Canglin was looking for something from the end of the last century or even earlier, the two of them walked deeper into the corridor.

"Grandpa said that when Delin Middle School was founded, he also contributed a lot. He was listed as one of the three giants along with the old man of the Lin family and that educator from the country of Mao... Hahaha, it's funny, right? If that was true, I wouldn't be so poor!" Li Canglin said, sticking out his tongue. "Grandpa likes to exaggerate, but it seems that he did help the Lin family."

"Yes, what's the matter?"

"You know that Old Lady Lin is still alive, right? In fact, according to numerology, she should have died a long time ago. Grandpa calculated this and, at the request of Old Master Lin, performed a life-extending ritual for his wife... Old Lady Lin is still alive, and this is the evidence."

"..."

Lin Xiangling felt that Li Canglin's understanding of the concept of "evidence" was somewhat similar.

But this basis for judgment seems to make some sense when it comes to Li Canglin.

Recently, when Lin Xiangling was at home, she tried to practice Professor Li Canglim's meditation mantra. It really worked.

If you practice before studying, it will not be so easy to miss Lin Yun. Those ignorant, hot and twisted thoughts will be calmed down after a period of time.

This girl really has something... Lin Xiangling watched her carefully stop and observe every exhibit in the corridor. Most of the exhibits here are iconic moments in the school's history. It is hard to say whether Grandpa Li Canglim will appear. I hope so.

"What are you looking for? How about you tell me and I'll help you find it?"

"Oh, even if I tell you, you won't know. These are traces that only we seekers can see."

“…Wow, that’s amazing.”

"What's so great about that? This is modern society, and those mysterious things are becoming less and less useful... If I could choose, I would rather be very rich, so that no matter what truth I want to find out, I can just hire someone to investigate."

Sometimes Li Canglin speaks in the tone of a little adult, quite vicissitudes of life, but combined with her behavior, there is only a funny contrast.

Lin Xiangling kept a calm mind and did not have too many expectations for what she would gain… Every year when the school history museum is open, all students will come to see the things here. Could the clues really be in an obvious place?

Logically speaking, clues should be hidden in dark corners.

Suddenly, Li Canglin stopped in front of a beautifully framed photo.

It was a group photo of Grandpa Lin, several students, and several people outside the school. Lin Xiangling quickly recognized that it was the mountainous area of ​​her hometown, Huanan County. The photo was probably taken in a valley somewhere, and there was a banner with the words "Beicang City Mountaineering Association". It must have been an event co-organized by mountaineering-related clubs and the city mountaineering association, and Grandpa Lin also participated.

Judging from people’s clothes, hairstyles and temperament, it’s been quite old.

"Is there something fishy here?" Lin Xiangling was curious.

"Ah."

Next, Li Canglin did something very magical. She took out an old card camera, took a photo of the group photo, and then took Lin Xiangling out of the school, took a few bus stops, and turned on a computer in an inconspicuous Internet cafe.

Unfortunately, both of them showed on their ID cards that they were minors. Fortunately, this Internet cafe was not very formal. When they entered, the strong smell of cigarettes made Lin Xiangling cough.

"Be patient for a while, it will be fine soon."

"Ahem...what's in that photo?"

"There are traces of a red hourglass. Of course, you can't see it clearly if you look directly at it. I'll adjust the contrast of the photo to show you."

Li Canglin skillfully opened the PS software, and Lin Xiangling finally saw that a light red hourglass symbol was faintly emerging on the big stone that Grandpa Lin was standing on.

The strange thing is that this symbol does not seem to exist in the picture on the computer screen, but is a three-dimensional projection suspended in the air.

Surprised!

Can this Taoist Cang Lin also combine with modern technology?

Really keeping up with the times...

Lin Xiangling rubbed her eyes and looked again.

"Don't worry about it. This is not an illusion... That flag is not bound by space and will only wear out over time. Hmm... From what I can see, this photo should be about twenty years old."

"It says on the banner that this is the eleventh event of the Mountaineering Association." Lin Xiangling suggested, "Go to the local forum and search it."

really.

The photo was taken eighteen years ago, which is consistent with Li Cangliin's estimation. At that time, her grandfather was still alive and might be studying flag seals. Then, Mr. Lin might be his co-researcher.

"Hey, so, if we just go to that place for an on-site investigation, we might get some great results." Li Canglim waved his fist excitedly.

"I'll go with you. My family is from Hua'an County, and I'm quite familiar with the mountains."

"Oh~ That's a coincidence." Li Canglin couldn't help but look at Lin Xiangling again, "If this flag seal comes from your hometown, maybe Lin Yun is not dangerous to you, but a blessing in your life."

"Uuuuuuu..."

Lin Xiangling blushed at the compliment and hummed repeatedly.

It is true that Lin Yun is her blessing, but he may not be just her blessing. At least Lin Yun is very important to her two childhood sweethearts, and there is also the eldest daughter Xu Jingyi... Every girl around Lin Yun makes her feel inferior.

Today was a fruitful day. Li Canglim said he would go to the library to look for ancient books again. As for Lin Xiangling... the school anniversary activities had little to do with her. Since she had some free time, she might as well go to the art center to work for a day. The aunt who led her said on WeChat that she missed her. Come to think of it, she had indeed been there less frequently recently.

From a utilitarian point of view, one can naturally learn more useful things at Lin's Bank, but the job of an art center tour guide has special significance for Lin Xiangling. It is thanks to this job that she has gained a foothold in this city and accumulated many memories of her "date" with Lin Yun there.

If that could really be considered a date.

……

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

In terms of the speed of finding clues, Lin Yun was even faster than the sneaky Li Canglin. In less than ten minutes, he locked onto a yearbook near the drama club's booth.

"'The Red and the Black', Stendhal's masterpiece, was jointly adapted and created by all members of the drama club, and was successfully performed, winning unanimous praise from both inside and outside the school... You know what, my eldest brother's Julien was quite handsome, and he looked like the kind of guy who could hook up with the Marquis's daughter." Lin Yun pointed at the man with long braids and a black windbreaker in the yearbook and commented sharply.

This look doesn't respect history very much, it's mainly for the sake of being cool. Rather than the style of the Napoleonic Empire era, it's more like a character in a Japanese fantasy RPG.

Xu Jingyi also commented: "He is the eldest grandson of the Lin family, but he can play the role of a rural youth who is scheming to climb up... Rather than saying that his acting skills are good, it is better to say that Mr. Lin Yuankai originally lacks confidence."

"Have you seen this?"

"Yes, I've met him a few times in various occasions, and I can roughly guess what kind of person he is."

"So what kind of person am I?"

"you are mine."

"..."

Thank you, I feel a little bit rustic.

Just as Lin Yun was about to take out his cell phone to take a photo for the yearbook, Lin Yuankai's voice rang out from behind them.

"Ms. Xu, you're in a good mood. You're here to visit the school history museum early in the morning...Are you here to play with Xiaoyun?"

"Brother, you too, are really hardworking."

Yuan Kai grinned, took the yearbook from Lin Yun's hand, looked down at it, and his expression changed slightly.

"This commemorative album... I thought it was out of print, but it's still on display. Really, that's a scene I really hate..."

"Hey, why?"

"The acting is too immature, a bit immature... No, I'll talk to the person in charge of the drama club and ask them to consider the self-esteem of the seniors."

Yuan Kai went to negotiate with the staff.

Lin Yun and Xu Jing exchanged glances. The former looked a little distressed, but the latter shook her head and reached out to gently pat the brooch on her clothes.

A small red dot flickers faintly on the elegantly designed brooch.

160. The Fallen Little Pig

Lin Yun feels that although Xu Jingyi's view on love sounds outrageous, it is very modern.

Postmodern love is basically not about the heart, but it is very often about sex. There is a game between men and women. The pre-modern romance and lukewarmness have been torn apart by the claws of material desires, leaving only the vulgarity of the market.

Xu Jingyi's attitude enables people to always maintain their advantage and avoid getting hurt in relationships.

The relationship between the trio has gone beyond this level. Not to mention hurt, it's already a strange symbiosis... Of course, Lin Yun is also very convinced that the two of them can like Lin Yun and be best friends under the same roof. In essence, it's not just Lin Yun who doesn't know how to resolve the situation, but none of them knows what to do, so they just muddle along.

Xu Jingyi probably wouldn't be able to understand this thing in her lifetime. Lin Yun didn't force her. He leaned over to glance at the laptop screen. The pictures had been processed clearly and three were selected, which were the front, side and back views of Lin Yuankai in costume.

"Contact Teacher Fu tonight and show him the picture. If he thinks it matches the image in his memory, continue investigating along this line... How do you think we should start?"

Xu Jing pondered for a moment and shook his head gently: "It feels difficult. The relevant people back then were probably silenced by the Lin family. Even if we come to their door now, they have no reason to help... It's a thankless task and may bring trouble to ourselves. Most people will choose to protect themselves at this time."

"Yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking. So...if we want to make a breakthrough, we have to find the person involved."

Du Xintong and her parents.

There is no doubt that if Yuan Kai had noticed the abnormality and taken measures, Du Xintong's family would have been under strict surveillance.

Xu Jingyi said that she had sent people to check. The mental hospital where Du Xintong had lived for a long time had strengthened security and the review of visits was extremely strict. Even the Lin family's evil lackeys had been found near the hospital.

"The running dogs of the underworld... are you referring to those hooligans who collect debts and rent?"

"Yes."

Lin Yun couldn't help but be amazed.

159. The strong must severely humiliate the weak

Every family rooted in the local area needs to keep some hooligans from all walks of life to do some not-so-decent but necessary things.

The thugs raised by the Lin family are affiliated with the construction company, and the construction company is under the management of the eldest uncle. Logically, the gangster group should also be under the management of the eldest uncle, but this is not the case.

The leader of that group of thugs, known as "Brother Daxiang", reports directly to Old Lady Lin, but at least on the surface, he regards Uncle as his superior.

Teng Haolong used to be a subordinate of Brother Daxiang. Later, he was abandoned as a sacrifice by the Lin Group and rescued by the Orion mercenaries. Then he followed Lin Yun... With this relationship, Lin Yun would sometimes discuss matters about the construction company with Teng Haolong, and his understanding of Brother Daxiang's gang was deeper than in his previous life.

In addition, Lin Yun was in the dark and could move around the Lin family openly. After a little calculation, he immediately came up with a bad idea to mess with the Lin family's lackeys.

"I've thought of a way to make them stir up some trouble among themselves, so that I can take advantage of the situation and contact Du Xintong."
