A man with a gloomy face and pale skin walked in: "Qingque, have you seen Mr. Su?"
Qingque paused for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Shen Hai? What do you want with Ayan?"
Perhaps because she often slacked off, Qingque didn't have a deep impression of Shen Hai and wasn't very familiar with him.
Qingque only remembered that Shen Hai was a diviner in the Taibu Si and also a friend of Ayan.
Some time ago, Shen Hai took over the position of his former colleague and became an interviewer for Taibus.
Shortly after that, Shen Hai recommended Ayan to Fu Xuan.
To avoid suspicion, Fu Xuan sent him on a business trip to Yaoqing and had Qingque interview Su Jinyan.
Shen Hai explained, "It's like this, I just got back from a business trip to Yaoqing."
"I was delighted to hear that Mr. Su had successfully joined the Bureau of Apostles, so I thought I'd have a few drinks with him."
Qingque grew increasingly puzzled: "Don't you have any way to contact me?"
Shen Hai twitched the corner of his mouth: "Wouldn't it be more sincere to meet in person?"
"I'm sorry to trouble you, Miss Qingque. Please tell Mr. Su this after you meet him."
"I'd like to invite him to have a nice drink at Jinren Lane at 6:30 tonight."
After saying this, Shen Hai hurriedly left the Taibu Si Library, seemingly not wanting to stay there for even a moment longer.
Qingque looked puzzled: "He's a strange person, a bit suspicious."
Su Jinyan didn't return to her post until almost the end of the workday in the evening.
He bought Qingque Fairy Happy Tea and glutinous rice balls as an apology, hoping that Qingque would forgive him.
Qingque wrinkled her little nose: "Ayan, your friend came to see you just now."
Su Jinyan asked in confusion, "Which friend?"
Qingque explained, "It's Shen Hai, the friend who recommended you for a job at the Taibusi."
"He even invited you to have a nice drink at Jinren Lane after get off work tonight."
Su Jinyan suddenly realized, rubbing her chin: "Shen Hai, right... I understand..."
"I've been wanting to meet up with Shen Hai for a while now. Even if he doesn't contact me, I'll still go to him."
Su Jinyan had never met Shen Hai, but that didn't stop him from wanting to kill Shen Hai.
Because Shen Hai's existence is dangerous to him.
Those who knew his undercover identity were none other than the leader and the man in black.
Before a clear conflict of positions and interests occurs.
They pose no threat to us whatsoever; on the contrary, they will do everything they can to conceal their identities.
But Shen Hai is different. Su Jinyan knew that from the day he joined the Taibu Si, he would inevitably have a conflict of interest with Shen Hai.
Two tigers cannot share one mountain. The only reason for this is that he is too outstanding and has seriously threatened Shen Hai's position.
Consider this: the only undercover agent in the past was Shen Hai.
When Su Jinyan arrived at the Taibu Si, there were now two undercover agents.
So here's the question: given that the Tabuan already had an undercover agent...
Why would the Medicine King's Secret Transmission go to such great lengths, risking being discovered by Fu Xuan, to send him as an undercover agent?
Su Jinyan speculated that it was very likely that Shen Hai, relying on his status as the only undercover agent of the Taibu Si, was constantly demanding more benefits from the Medicine King's Secret Teachings.
This incurred the displeasure of the higher-ups in the Medicine King's Secret Sect, who then sent him as an undercover agent to check and balance Shen Hai.
Of course, checks and balances are impossible.
As long as he finds the right opportunity, Shen Hai will surely die.
……
At 6:30 p.m., Su Jinyan arrived at Jinren Lane as promised.
Inside a private room at the tavern, a pale-faced, gloomy man raised his glass in a gesture of respect.
"Mr. Su, oh no, Mr. Sun."
Should I call you Sun Xiaochuan, or Su Jinyan?
Su Jinyan narrowed his eyes slightly. He immediately exposed his identity in the Medicine King's Secret Teachings. This guy was indeed up to no good.
Seeing that Su Jinyan remained silent, Shen Hai continued speaking to himself:
"It seems that during the time I was away..."
"Mr. Sun Xiaochuan has already made a name for himself in the Taibu Si?"
Su Jinyan took a sip of wine: "What? You have a problem with that?"
Shen Hai hurriedly waved his hand, his expression playful: "No, no, no, how could I dare to have any objections?"
"However, it seems you've forgotten your own identity?"
Su Jinyan sighed, then suddenly grabbed the wine jar and smashed it hard against Shen Hai's head.
Caught off guard, Shen Hai had no time to dodge.
Bang!
The sound of the wine jar shattering suddenly rang out.
Shen Hai was smashed on the head, bleeding profusely and seeing stars.
Su Jinyan took out a handkerchief and disgustedly wiped the bloodstains off her hands.
"Can't we talk properly now?"
Shen Hai touched his head, which was covered in blood, and looked incredulous.
"Don't you know? As soon as I report you to the Ten Kings Division, a judge will immediately take you away for investigation."
"Once your identity is exposed, you will face a life of imprisonment without hope."
Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Secret of the Medicine King's Teachings
Su Jinyan scoffed: "To be honest, Shen Hai, I'm very curious."
"Who gave you the confidence to think I wouldn't betray you?"
Shen Hai sneered, "That's right, of course you can insist that I am also a practitioner of the Medicine King's secret teachings."
"However, I had long anticipated this day would come, so I made preparations in advance."
Su Jinyan: "Oh?"
Shen Hai said in a deep voice, "In fact, I did not join the organization because I believed in the Compassionate Medicine King."
"I joined the Medicine King's Secret Teachings only to gain more benefits."
"Ever since I successfully joined the Tabuan, I have already made up my mind to leave the government."
"The few pieces of intelligence that I occasionally provide to the Medicine King's secret lineage have had little effect on Luofu, and the losses are negligible."
"Because I joined the Medicine King's Secret Teachings the earliest, I have enough seniority."
"Therefore, the secret strongholds where the Medicine King's secret teachings are hidden, the intelligence network in Luofu, and the list of the Shizhe's identities are all under my control."
Su Jinyan shook his head slightly: "The Medicine King's secret method is to train you with all his heart, hoping that you can serve the organization, not to let you have it both ways."
Shen Hai scoffed, "Ha, you have the nerve to talk about me like that?"
“Once I am captured by the Ten Kings’ Bureau, I can use this information to atone for my crimes and clear my name.”
"And you, you can only stay in the dark and sunless prison forever, until you die."
Su Jinyan glanced at Shen Hai and activated her mind control: "Not bad, continue."
"Say everything that's on your mind, and answer whatever I ask."
Shen Hai laughed out loud: "What? Mr. Xiaochuan, did I hit the nail on the head? Are you feeling guilty?"
"You've been having a good time at the Grand Divination Bureau, haven't you? Are you captivated by Fu Xuan's good looks?"
Su Jinyan: "..."
Shen Hai's face was gloomy: "The Medicine King's secret method is to train you with all his heart, hoping that you can serve the organization, not to let you have it both ways."
"Sun Xiaochuan, I'd like to say the same thing to you."
"Don't forget, the organization sent you to Taibusi to be an undercover agent, not to be Fu Xuan's dog."
"You even ruined the organization's plan to assassinate Tingyun. What are your true intentions?"
Before Su Jinyan arrived, Taibu Si only had Shen Hai as an undercover agent, a secret disciple of the Medicine King.
It's not easy for someone from the Medicine King's Secret Sect to infiltrate the Taibu Si (a secret society). To keep him in check, the Medicine King's Secret Sect will provide him with a large amount of resources from time to time.
In return, Shen Hai only needs to occasionally leak a few pieces of information to the Medicine King's Secret Teachings, helping them to benefit from it.
But Shen Hai was too shrewd; he was unwilling to risk being exposed by revealing the key information of the Medicine King's secret teachings.
