The cover of the notebook was made of pure cowhide. It was dry after being wet. The entire cover was shrunk and one could vaguely see a piece of paper inside.
It was a completely different piece of paper from the notebook inside.
Su Yan endured her headache and disgust as she tore open the cover of the notebook. She saw a folded piece of paper inside, filled with densely packed names and dates.
It started twenty years ago and ended thirteen years ago.
"This..." It must be related to his father's death! Su Yan was so agitated that she only had to say one word before she felt a headache coming on. She looked at the things in front of her vaguely, as if there were three more layers of them.
Old Master Yun took the piece of paper from Su Yan's hands with trembling hands. His turbid gaze swept across the names on it, and even his breathing became hurried. Holding onto Su Yan's bed, Old Master Yun couldn't help but mutter, "So that's how it is. It's actually like this!"
"Grandpa?"
The two of them were too loud, and the nurse on duty rushed over. In the end, the three generations lay side by side in the ward.
Seeing that Old Master Yun was still too agitated, the nurse comforted him nicely, "Old Master, relax, relax. Look, your son and granddaughter are in trouble. You have to hold on, right?"frℯ𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋𝓷oѵℯl - 🅽🅽novel
Old Master Yun didn't know which sentence touched him, but after hearing the nurse's words, Old Master Yun indeed relaxed a little. At least, he didn't hold on to the paper so tightly anymore.
The nurse tried to take the piece of paper from Old Master Yun's hands, but he immediately reacted and looked at her warily.
The nurse quickly let go and said gently, "No one wants it. No one wants it. It's yours." Her tone sounded like she was coaxing a child.
Looking at Old Master Yun's expression, Su Yan could not help but feel a little worried. It was as if they had telepathy. When Su Yan looked at Old Master Yun, Old Master Yun also turned to look at her, as if confirming that she was fine. After a while, he relaxed and slowly closed his eyes. After a while, he actually fell asleep.
When the nurse saw this, she heaved a sigh of relief. When she saw Su Yan's worried face, she consoled her, "The old man's mood swings aren't too good. I've just injected some tranquilizer. He'll be in much better condition after a short rest." After the nurse finished speaking and confirmed Old Master Yun's condition, she left the ward.
Su Yan endured her headache and disgust as she got off the bed. She looked at the piece of paper that Old Master Yun was holding tightly in his hand. The name and the corresponding date on the paper were still incomprehensible to Su Yan, but looking at Old Master Yun's condition, it was obvious that this piece of paper was very likely related to her father's death in Old Master Yun's eyes.
Old Master Yun did not sleep for long. In less than ten minutes, he broke free from the effects of the tranquilizer. His emotions seemed much more stable now. Looking at the piece of paper in his hand, his expression changed from one of resentment to astonishment.
"Grandpa, what's on this paper?"
Being suddenly questioned, Old Master Yun's expression turned even uglier. After a moment, he could only sigh helplessly.
"There are some things that I wanted to hide from you, but looking at you, if I don't tell you, you won't be able to take it lying down." Old Master Yun looked at Su Yan's stubborn look and her pursed lips. He suddenly laughed."You're actually quite similar to your father. Same curiosity, same questions."
Old Master Yun turned his head to look at the pitch-black night sky. His voice sounded nostalgic as he said, "I didn't want to tell your father in the past because I was afraid that I would harm him if I did. However, he still managed to find some clues based on his own abilities. I'd rather your father wasn't that smart. That way he wouldn't be harmed by something like this."
Old Master Yun didn't get to the main point of his speech, and Su Yan was a little anxious.
"Okay, okay. I was just about to say it." Old Master Yun raised his hand to signal Su Yan to calm down."This matter has to start thirty years ago."
Thirty years ago, the situation in the country was generally stable, but there had never been a lack of shady dealings in private. The most famous case was probably the largest child trafficking case thirty years ago.
Thirty years ago, traffic wasn't as convenient as it was now. The police had mobilized many police forces and spent half a year chasing them from the southernmost part of China to the northernmost part of China and capturing them.
After capturing these people, the police found their nest. There were more than a hundred kidnapped children in their nest, and this was only one of their strongholds.
After this case broke out, the whole of China was shocked.
Following this line, the more they searched, the more shocked they were. And when they found a certain part, all the clues were completely cut off.
The connection between the Yun family and this case was probably the kidnapping of a child from the Yun family ten years ago.
"So the people written on it were kidnapped?" Su Yan guessed.
Old Master Yun shook his head."They are all from the Yun family."
