Second Uncle laughed and said, "No matter where that person goes, he can survive. He won't die that easily."
"Where is he?" Han Sen couldn't help but ask.
Second Uncle sat down in front of a table made from a tree stump. He poured three cups of tea and gave two cups to Han Sen and Ning Yue. He sipped his tea and said, "I want to know where he is, but I can't find him."
Han Sen was disappointed. He patted Littleflower and said, "If you want to know where he is from me, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. I haven't seen him before."
Second Uncle shook his head and said, "I know you don't know where he is."
"If that's the case, why did you ask me to come here?" Han Sen didn't understand.
Han Sen didn't understand why Second Uncle had asked him to come here.
Second Uncle looked at Han Sen and sighed. He said, "If I told you Han Jingzhi isn't related to you, would you believe me?"
"Why?" Han Sen was shocked, and then he asked.
If Second Uncle had said that before, Han Sen would have believed him. After all, he didn't think he was related to Han Jingzhi.
But his father had already told him that Han Jingzhi was his great-grandpa. If Second Uncle said that, Han Sen didn't believe him. But Han Sen didn't deny Second Uncle's claim.
Second Uncle didn't answer Han Sen. He just nodded at Ning Yue.
Ning Yue pulled out a document and placed it in front of Han Sen. He said, "Ever since we found out you had the Nine-Life Cat pendant, we have been investigating everything related to you and your relationship with Han Jingzhi. This includes all the information we can gather."
Han Sen opened the document and flipped through a few pages. The content was very detailed. Whenever he went out of the house, wherever there were people, there would be a detailed record of him.
There was also some information obtained from the side investigation, as well as all the movements of his family members. Even Han Sen's second uncle and aunt were being closely monitored and investigated.
Han Sen's side was still alright. As for Second Uncle and Aunt's side, they didn't even know the color of their underwear.
"You guys have put in a lot of effort," Han Sen said as he looked at the information.
"We need to determine if you are an enemy or a friend. This is a very normal procedure," Ning Yue said with a smile.
However, Second Master only sat at the side and sipped his tea, not saying anything else.
Ning Yue pointed at the documents and continued, "After a long period of investigation and various comprehensive inferences, it is very likely that you and your father are Han Jingzhi's immediate relatives."
"If that's the case, why did Second Master say that I'm not related to Han Jingzhi by blood?" Han Sen looked at Ning Yue and Second Master in confusion.
What they said was a bit too contradictory. Han Sen knew that there must be more to it.
Ning Yue said with a serious expression, "In the process of investigation, we found a lot of suspicious points. We couldn't determine the relationship between you and Han Jingzhi, so we wasted a lot of time and energy. It wasn't until we solved all these suspicious points that we found out that you guys are very likely Han Jingzhi's immediate relatives. However …"
Han Sen didn't interrupt and waited for Ning Yue to continue.
Ning Yue sighed and said, "However, there is a small suspicious point that we haven't been able to solve."
"What suspicious point?" Han Sen asked curiously.
Ning Yue pointed at the three words "Han Jingzhi" written on the cover of the document and said in a very strange tone, "Why is your great grandfather called Han Jingzhi?"
Han Sen was stunned at first, but then he understood what Ning Yue meant.
Han Jingzhi was, of course, Han Jingzhi. However, why was the chess piece that Han Jingzhi arranged for his escape called Han Jingzhi? Han Sen had been puzzled about this before.
"If Han Jingzhi used the identity of a lowly civil servant to hide and protect himself and you, then he shouldn't have used the name Han Jingzhi. Any other name would have been a hundred or ten thousand times safer than this name, but he just had to use this name."
Ning Yue paused and continued, "And it's this name that made us and many other factions related to Han Jingzhi waver. It was difficult to determine whether you guys were related to Han Jingzhi or not, so we spent a lot of energy and time.
I believe that it wasn't just our Ning family, but many other factions also spent a lot of resources and energy to determine your true identity and then find out Han Jingzhi's whereabouts from you guys. "
"In the end, there were doubts about you guys one after another.
Many of them misled the direction of our investigation, making us unable to determine whether you guys were related to Han Jingzhi or not.
It wasn't until we solved all these doubts that we found that you guys were very likely to be direct relatives of Han Jingzhi.
The only remaining point of suspicion was why Han Jingzhi was still Han Jingzhi.
This couldn't even be considered a point of suspicion."
"This wasn't a point of suspicion. Did you guys find the answer to this point of suspicion?" Han Sen asked.
Ning Yue shook his head. "We didn't find the answer, but we made a hypothesis and reverse inference. Perhaps you can listen to it."
"Please go ahead." Han Sen looked at Ning Yue. He also wanted to know the answer to this point of suspicion.
Ning Yue sighed and said, "If we assume that Han Jingzhi wasn't a direct relative of yours, and that he used the name Han Jingzhi for a purpose, then what was that purpose?
From the results, we can infer that your family involved a lot of energy from our Ning family and other factions. All of the focus was on you guys. Everyone wanted to find out Han Jingzhi's whereabouts from you guys, and in the end, they found out that you guys were Han Jingzhi's direct relatives. So who benefited the most? "
Han Sen's expression changed when he heard this. If this was the case, there was no doubt that the one who benefited the most was Han Jingzhi, and the one who sacrificed was Han Sen's family.
The name Han Jingzhi was more like a bait that Han Jingzhi had left behind. It was a bait for all the sharks to take the bait. It involved everyone's energy, so Han Jingzhi had more time to do what he wanted to do.
The scariest thing was that Han Sen didn't know that Han Jingzhi was still alive. In the end, they were assumed to be Han Jingzhi's direct relatives. That meant they had to face all their enemies head-on.
If Han Sen's father hadn't faked his death, and if Han Sen hadn't grown so much, things wouldn't have turned out this way. The New Stream Society alone was enough to kill their entire family.
Although this was just a hypothesis and not necessarily the truth, Han Sen's heart jumped when he heard it. A chill ran down his spine.
"We can't guarantee that this hypothesis is correct, but other than that, we can't find a reasonable explanation for why Han Jingzhi is still Han Jingzhi," Ning Yue said, looking at Han Sen.
