Chapter 184: Selling her sister out

Mu Shaoyan chuckled, "My sister is nothing if not consistent. She has always been a very vengeful person, ever since we were kids. If you wronged her, she would say nothing and bide her time only to hurt you later in the most painful way. We used to call her a wolf as if she was some kind of bogeyman to watch out for in the dark." She paused to smoke again and then said, "Ye Chenzen is in a nursing home somewhere in the capital, I don’t know where. His uncle took over their sugar factory but it’s failing. I think they are about to close down. Anyway if you want to find my sister, pay a visit to the nursing home. I am sure that vengeful wench goes there to taunt him occasionally. Here, you will find nothing. Now, pay me my money."

Chi Lian kept around five hundred thousand cash in her storage. She pretended to take a bundle of money from her bag and put it in Mu Shaoyan’s hand.

The woman’s eyes glittered with greed. "Hahaha, looks like I am going to have a good night." She said. "I will clean all those bastards out tonight."

Chi Lian knew this money would soon be lost to gambling, but it was none of her business how this woman chose to live her life.

"T4, does she have a phone?"

"Yes host, but it’s currently switched off so I cannot access it."

She pulled out anther bundle of money and tossed it to Mu Shaoyan. "I want your phone." She said when the woman looked at her in shock.

"My phone," the woman said excitedly. She stood up and brought the old phone with a shattered screen to Chi Lian. "What else do you want? Take everything if you want, I will sell it to you as long as you point it out."

"Your sister’s old school albums, diaries or anything like that."

The woman run into the bedroom and returned with two tiny albums after two minutes of searching. When she was searching and handing over the albums she did not stop talking.

"You see, that wench burnt everything of hers when she left this place but I hid these for the sake of our parents. She didn’t want anything connecting her to this place or family. I would not be surprised if she changed her name."

What she said struck some inspiration in Chi Lian. Why had they not considered a name change? They could not find the woman because she possibly changed her name.

"And her face." T4 chimed in. "She could have had surgery done to her face. I will look into these possibilities host."

Before leaving, Chi Lian asked the woman, "Is there anyone in this town who was good or kind to your sister even when she became a source of gossip for everyone?"

"Hmmm, "Mu Shaoyan said thoughtfully, "The owner of the old rice mill. After my sister got pregnant, our parents locked her up in the house and wanted to marry her off because she had brought them shame. But she escaped and the old lady who owned the rice mill took her in. But that old woman disappeared from the town two years ago. She had no family and everyone just assumed that the sleeping killer got her. Her body is probably at the bottom of the lake right now."

"What was her name?" Chi Lian asked after thinking things through for a while. She was an old woman with no family and a kind heart. If Mu Shaoyan’s suspicions were correct and her sister killed those people in revenge than perhaps she also decided to pay back the kindness she received. Maybe she took the old woman somewhere she could be taken care of, like a nursing home or a hospice.

"Ru something, I don’t remember. Everyone just called her rice mill grandmother." Mu Shaoyan responded.

"Thank you for the information." Chi Lian said and stood up. Quickly, she exited the door hurrying to leave the foul smelling apartment.

"Wait," Mu Shaoyan run after her. They stood in the hallway, and she said, "Don’t you want to know anything else? I can still help you if you pay me well."

"I think you have given me all the information you have on your sister. Unless there is something else you are holding back." She said cautiously.

After getting a taste of money, of course the woman was eager to open her mouth even more.

"Well this is a big one; I was holding it back because I still wanted to be loyal to my sister. She is family after all. "She claimed slyly. "But since that bitch has never done anything for me, I see no reason to protect her. For double of what you have given me, I will tell you something big."

Chi Lian reached into her bag and brought out an even larger bundle of cash. It amounted to one hundred thousand.

The woman quickly grabbed it greedily but Chi Lian pulled her hand away slightly. The woman laughed and hen she said, "My sister did come back to this town once, two years ago or so someone claims. There is a karaoke bar in that building with green billboard." She pointed to it. "Find a woman who calls herself Sally and talk to her. But I should caution you, Sally is a little crazy in the head. I don’t know if she was telling the truth or telling a lie."

Chi Lian gave her the money and then walked away quickly. She had nearly all the information she wanted to know.

Downstairs, the cab which brought her to that building was still waiting. She had commissioned it for a whole day by offering the driver ten thousand Yuan in cash.

When she entered, the driver started the cab and asked, "Where to now?"

"Go to the building with the green billboard."

"Ah, you are going to the entertainment avenue of Xunwai, there are better places in this town, that place is now old and boring. Let me tell you, you should have seen it back in the day, it was the place to be....." The driver she had was a chatterbox, at no point of this journey had he been silent. She drowned out his talk and called Muyang.

"Did you reach safely?" he asked immediately upon answering the phone in a concerned voice.

"Yes, I reached safely." She responded.

"That’s good. I was worried when you sent a text saying that someone was following you. You should be cautious, it could be someone that knows we are looking for our son and doesn’t want us to find him. Use your gun to protect yourself if you have to, I have already explained the situation to minister Su."
