Chapter 16: Heavy Fog At Chen Mo's funeral, Lin Qian and Lu Huai stood in front of the tombstone for a long time, unwilling to leave. Chen Mo's colleagues handed over an envelope: "This is what he asked me to hand over to you before he died." Inside the envelope was a yellowed photo of a young Chen Mo and a man wearing a mask. "This mask..." Lin Qian stared at the photo, her pupils shrinking, "It is exactly the same as the mask of the leader of the 'Shadow' organization." Lu Huai took the photo and looked at it carefully: "Does Chen Mo know him?" At this moment, their mobile phones rang at the same time, which was an anonymous text message: "If you want to know the truth, come to the abandoned dock in the west of the city alone at 12 noon tomorrow." The next day, Lin Qian ignored Lu Huai's objection and went to the dock alone. The dilapidated warehouse was filled with a damp, musty smell. She carefully opened the door and saw a familiar figure standing by the window with his back to her - it was Scarface. "It's you!" Lin Qian raised the gun. "Have you been arrested by the police?" Scarface turned around with a strange smile on his face: "Some cages can't hold me." He shook the phone in his hand, "Chen Mo's death was actually his own choice." Lin Qian felt cold all over: "What do you mean?" Scarface walked slowly to an old iron table, picked up the rusty wrench on the table and played with it: "Chen Mo, he has been inextricably linked to our 'Shadow' organization for a long time. The person in that photo is our leader. They were close friends." "Impossible!" Lin Qian's voice trembled. Chen Mo had always been her respected senior. In her heart, Chen Mo was the embodiment of justice. How could he be related to the dark organization. "Humph, believe it or not." Scarface sneered, "Chen Mo has done a lot to hide his identity. But paper can't cover up the fire after all. He knew that the matter would be exposed sooner or later, so he chose to commit suicide and left the matter to you and Lu Huai. He just wanted to see if you could uncover the truth, or..." Scarface paused deliberately, his eyes full of provocation, "Become our next pawn." Lin Qian clenched the gun in her hand: "You're talking nonsense! Even if Chen Mo really has contact with you, he must have his reasons. And don't think you can seduce me so easily. Today, I'm going to send you back to prison." "Just you?" Scarface suddenly threw the wrench at Lin Qian. Lin Qian ducked sideways and pulled the trigger at the same time. The bullet flew past Scarface's shoulder. There was a sharp sound of gunfire in the warehouse, and Scarface quickly hid behind a huge wooden box. Lin Qian moved cautiously and observed her surroundings vigilantly. She knew that Scarface was a dangerous figure and should not be taken lightly. At this moment, footsteps were heard from the other end of the warehouse, and Lin Qian immediately pointed the muzzle of the gun in the direction of the sound. However, what appeared were several people wearing black hoods, holding gleaming daggers in their hands, and surrounded Lin Qian. "Miss Lin, don't be impulsive." Scarface walked out from behind the wooden box with a proud smile on his face, "We are not here to fight you today. We just want to give you a small warning. Stop pursuing it, otherwise, you and Lu Huai may be the next ones lying in the grave." Lin Qian said nothing, looking firmly at Scarface and those surrounding her. She was looking for opportunities to break out, and at the same time, she was mentally calculating how to deal with the crisis at hand. Suddenly, she heard a siren coming from outside the warehouse, and she felt happy. Scarface also heard the siren, and his face instantly turned gloomy: "You're lucky, Lin Qian. But remember, don't push yourself into a corner." After saying that, he quickly escaped from the back door of the warehouse with those people. Lin Qian breathed a sigh of relief, put away the gun and walked out of the warehouse. Lu Huai was coming with a team of police officers. When he saw that Lin Qian was safe and sound, his tense nerves relaxed: "I knew you wouldn't listen to advice. Don't take such risks next time." Lin Qian nodded and told Lu Huai what Scarface said. Lu Huai frowned: "If what Scarface said is true, then things are complicated. But I believe Chen Mo, he must have his own reasons. We have to start with that photo to find out what happened that year." At the same time, in the secret stronghold of the "Shadow" organization, Scarface was kneeling in front of a man wearing a mask: "Chief, that girl Lin Qian is difficult to deal with, but I have warned you
