Robbery Not Me

After getting out of the car, Xu Mu walked towards Chen Xuan's house.

This Zhou Xia is really something, it's still broad daylight, and she's already having an in-depth exchange with someone.

Especially for Xu Mu right now, with his heightened perception allowing him to hear the sounds, the feeling was just like standing right in front of them.

"Brother Mu."

Seeing Xu Mu arrive, Chen Xuan came from the living room into the yard.

"What happened?"

Xu Mu inquired.

"That woman, our neighbor, perhaps you were right. She really might be from the Yin-Yang Sect."

Chen Xuan pulled Xu Mu by the arm, leading him into the living room.

Xu Mu already knew, but he was curious how Chen Xuan found out. "Did you ask her?"

"How could I? Today in the back hills, I encountered a man from the Yin-Yang Sect attacking a woman."

Chen Xuan explained. "Since people from the Yin-Yang Sect are active nearby, maybe that woman is one too."

"You're really something, saving yet another girl?"

Xu Mu asked with a chuckle. "Did she offer herself to you in gratitude?"

"Definitely not. I was wearing a black robe at the time and used your name. That's what you taught me, Brother Mu. When you're out and about, you give yourself your own identity."

"Damn? You really know how to apply what you've learned."

Xu Mu was somewhat speechless.

Chen Xuan continued, "Brother Mu, what should I do? I really don't want a bad person living next door. I'm afraid for my chastity."

Xu Mu gestured for Chen Xuan to calm down. "Don't rush. If we want to deal with her, I have thirteen methods here."

"Like what?"

Chen Xuan asked.

"The simplest, of course, is to call the Cleaners. The Yin-Yang Sect is a wanted organization."

Xu Mu said with a smile.

Chen Xuan nodded. "True. Should we just notify the Sanitation Department directly?"

"Don't be hasty. Everything requires evidence. We need to test her first, to see if she really is from the Yin-Yang Sect."

Currently, Xu Mu wasn't too keen on having Zhou Xia arrested. He was very interested in the 'Ye Chen' she had mentioned earlier.

He wasn't sure if the person she mentioned was the Dragon King.

If it was, he also wasn't sure about the relationship between her and Ye Chen.

He needed to take this chance to investigate first, then make a plan.

"That works too. Then let's go over. I remember she's home."

Chen Xuan stood up and said.

"Don't be in a hurry. I'm afraid she's not in the mood right now. Let's just wait until nightfall, under the cover of darkness, and directly apprehend her."

Xu Mu said to Chen Xuan.

...

Xu Mu lay on the sofa at Chen Xuan's place, looking at his phone.

He had already sent a message to Ye Tong in advance, telling her not to cook for him tonight.

But plans can't keep up with changes. Originally, Xu Mu's plan was to capture her under the cover of night.

Unexpectedly, she took the initiative and came to Chen Xuan's house first.

"Sister, what brings you here?"

Seeing Zhou Xia, Xu Mu greeted her very naturally.

Chen Xuan was also sitting on the sofa, smiling.

"I just bought some purple grapes. I thought you boys might like them, so I wanted to bring you some."

Zhou Xia placed the grapes from the plastic bag on the table.

She stared at Xu Mu, practically drooling. This kind of man looked very potent at a glance.

That thirty-year-old man earlier, whom she met in the city district, kept boasting about how strong he was.

But in front of Zhou Xia, he was just a paper tiger, done in three seconds.

Men always like to talk tough in that regard.

If it weren't for the mission at hand, which required keeping a low profile, she would have killed him already.

"Thank you."

Xu Mu was currently thinking about how to extract information from her.

"We're neighbors, no need for formalities."

Zhou Xia smiled as she looked at Xu Mu. "Little brother, you really know how to joke. Why did you lie to your sister last time, saying your name was Ye Chen?"

Hearing this, Xu Mu couldn't help but glance at Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan was also confused; he didn't know Xu Mu had given a false name.

"Hahaha, last night when I came looking for little brother Chen Xuan, he kept calling you 'Brother Mu, Brother Mu,' so I knew you had lied to me."

Zhou Xia covered her mouth with a light laugh.

"Heh, awkward."

Xu Mu leaned back on the sofa and explained, "To be honest, sister, I don't get along with Ye Chen, so I often impersonate him."

"Oh? What is the identity of this Ye Chen you speak of?"

Zhou Xia suddenly narrowed her eyes and asked.

"Sister, I remember you also know Ye Chen. What's your relationship with him?"

Xu Mu didn't answer Zhou Xia's question but instead asked one in return.

"I just know him, met him a few times."

Zhou Xia was clearly not foolish and didn't answer Xu Mu's question directly.

"I see."

Xu Mu nodded and changed the subject. "By the way, sister, what line of work are you in?"

"I'm in wholesale."

Zhou Xia chuckled, giving Xu Mu a seductive smile. "When business is good, I wholesale cigarettes. When business is bad, I wholesale coal."

Hearing this, Xu Mu was quite impressed with this woman for daring to tell the truth.

When business is good, of course, you wholesale cigarettes, because friction generates heat.

"Sister, the two of us have plans with friends tonight, so we won't chat with you any longer."

Xu Mu didn't want to waste time on this kind of woman.

Better to wait until nightfall and directly apprehend and interrogate her.

"Alright then, sister will head back now."

Zhou Xia smiled as she stood up. She hadn't expected these two men to have such strong willpower.

She had hinted so blatantly, yet they remained unmoved.

After Zhou Xia left, Xu Mu and Chen Xuan walked out of the house together.

Before leaving, Xu Mu installed a pinhole camera in a patch of woods opposite the house.

He had already scanned the area with his perception; there was no one else around, and Zhou Xia had already returned to her bedroom.

Once everything was set, Xu Mu took Chen Xuan and left the area.

They parked the car on the road several kilometers away. Xu Mu then opened his phone, connected to the surveillance feed, and observed Zhou Xia's movements.

He remembered the landlord saying this woman went out every night.

...

Unconsciously, the sky gradually darkened.

Zhou Xia put on her overcoat, donned a mask and hat, and rode her electric scooter away from home.

"Old Chen, let's go."

Xu Mu took out a black robe from the back of the car. "When the time comes, don't speak. I know a thing or two about voice control; I'll do the talking."

"Okay."

Chen Xuan also pulled out a black robe from a woven bag.

The two didn't drive but instead ran on foot towards the route Zhou Xia was about to take.

Before long, the two spotted Zhou Xia.

Xu Mu immediately jumped out from below the roadside, grabbed Zhou Xia's shoulder, and rushed down into the small woods below the road.

Chen Xuan grabbed the electric scooter and threw it down below the road.

At this moment, Zhou Xia sat alone on the ground in the small woods.

She looked at the two black-robed figures before her and took off her mask.

"Is it you two, little brothers?"

Zhou Xia asked with a smile. Although they wore black robes, their heights matched perfectly.

If it was just one person matching, that would be one thing, but the key was both were about the same, so the probability was high it was them.

"Little brother? I could be your grandfather."

This time, Xu Mu used an old man's voice.

Chen Xuan beside him was inwardly shocked. The voice was too natural, exactly like a real old man.

Hearing this, Zhou Xia's expression gradually turned serious. It seemed she had guessed wrong.

"I wonder what the two of you want? If it's money, I don't have any."

Zhou Xia put on a smile again.
