Chapter 409 - Lihua\'s Strange New Neighbor

"That isn\'t really helpful," Fu Renshu sighed. "A mark on the back of his neck really doesn\'t help."

Mo Huojin nodded. "Indeed. But that\'s what I could get from him. I saw the footage myself. The man was perfectly disguised as the real trainer. There is no birthmark or tattoo or any other distinguishing feature through which we can recognize him. The scratch on his neck will heal soon enough."

Wei\'s expression was grim.

"Pull out a whole Underworld search," he calmly said.

Fu Renshu nodded.

It shouldn\'t be possible that Jiang Shan would be able to deploy his men in China that was Wei\'s turf. But somehow, he sent one of his men in prison to bribe the goon. It was extremely crucial to know how he was doing that.

Time was limited too. Before that scratch mark got healed that was the only distinguishing feature as of now, it would become difficult to nab him.

Mo Huojin said, "I will carry on my own search too. Let me know if you find something."

Fu Renshu stared at him. He still couldn\'t believe that Mo Huojin was cooperating with them even though Wei had killed Jia.

Mo Huojin caught his glance and narrowed his eyes. "I know what you are thinking. Let me be clear. I am just doing my job. Jiang Shan is a dangerous criminal. His prostitution and drug racket is something we cannot allow to step into China at any cost. If Jia had been in my place, she would have done the same."

They said nothing.

"It doesn\'t mean you are off for Jia\'s murder. Jiang Wei will still go to jail. He has to," he coldly said and left.

"Boss."

Wei raised his gaze. "Now we will wait."

The next morning, Lihua took a deep breath as she packed up for college.

She took a deep breath because she was going on a major battle today.

Her war against Math.

Yes. Today was the most await- *ahem* dreaded exam she always hated to give. Not only she hated Math, she couldn\'t even study for it yesterday because of Wei\'s hospital news.

Lihua paused and checked the news again. It said that Wei was in a critical condition. The situation in the Jiang company wasn\'t too bright either. The stocks were dwindling, and Jiang Weizhe, Jiang Weiyuan and Jiang Li were doing their best to control the damage.

She sighed.

It must be so hard for them…

Lihua shook her head and stepped out. As soon as she opened the door, she almost bumped into a man.

Her eyes slightly widened in surprise. She looked up. The man was of average build and height just above the thin category. His gaze was furtive, and he jolted as he saw her, clearly not expecting to see her so soon.

He was fidgeting with his fingers and his brows were knit together in an expression as if he was dumped into a pit of hell. He was literally on the verge of tears. But he had that helplessness that irrespective of his feelings of wanting to run away from here, he had to do this.

"Hello," Lihua said.

"...Hello?" He breathlessly asked as if he just ran a marathon and was dead tired.

Lihua blinked. "Are you saying hello or asking hello?"

He looked blank. "Did I say it wrong?"

"No. I mean, I was greeting you. But you seemed as if you are doubtful about your greeting."

He still looked blank.

Lihua\'s mouth twitched.

He is... strange.

"Can I help with you something?"

"No."

"Oh. So why are you standing before my house\'s door?"

Then he remembered.

"Ah that. I…" he really wanted to cry. "I came to introduce myself. I am your...new neighbor. My name is Lu Bojing."

Lu Bojing looked left and right. He really wasn\'t used to talking people, especially women. He used to stay cooped up in Mingshen\'s lab. He only spoke to dead bodies and chemicals. So his social skills with \'living people\' weren\'t really that top-notch.

"Oh," Lihua turned her head towards the next house. It was the same room where Wei used to stay. Her heart slightly felt prickly, but she quickly shut it out.

"I see," Lihua smiled. "I am Song Lihua. Pleased to meet you. If you need any help around this place, then you can ask me or Mrs. Zhang next door. Her house is opposite yours."

"Ah... Okay. So, I am a doctor," Lu Bojing came to the point.

Lihua blinked her eyes.

Why did he bring out his profession out of nowhere?

"That\'s great," she nodded.

He spoke in a tired voice. "So if you feek sick or uncomfortable, please call me right away."

"S-Sure…"

Then Lu Bojing suddenly burst into tears, making her part her lips in shock.

"No please do call me RIGHT AWAY if you feel sick. It\'s my job as a doctor…"

"I...I-I…" Lihua didn\'t know how to respond.

Why is he crying? Did I sound rude?

"Please do call me, okay? You are pregnant."

Lihua was stunned. "H-How do you know about it? I didn\'t tell you."

Lu Bojing blankly looked at her. "I...I just said that I am a doctor. I can just tell by looking at you."

Then his expression turned pale. "Or did you not believe me when I said I was a doctor?"

"No, no!" She quickly shook her head.

His eyes teared up. "Y-you didn\'t? I am really a doctor…You have to believe me. If you don\'t, you won\'t ask me for help if you got sick. If you won\'t ask me to treat you, you will be in danger, and if you are in danger, I will be dead…" he broke down.

Lihua was speechless.

Why is he so eager to help me? And why is he even crying?

"A-alright, alright. I will ask you for help if I feel sick, okay?" Lihua tried to pacify him.

Lu Bojing sniffled and seemed to feel relieved a bit.

"You can always ask me to accompany you for shopping or if you want to head out. You can fall sick anywhere, anytime…" he mumbled to himself.

Lu Bojing gave her a piece of paper. "This is my number... Call me immediately if you are in trouble…"

Then he swiftly dashed inside his house and shut the door.

Lihua kept standing there, dumbfounded. She looked down at his number on the paper.

The new neighbor is really strange....
