At this time, the old patriarch has just finished the morning meeting not long ago.
He was the only one in the meeting hall at this time.
He was sitting cross-legged in front of a low table, leisurely brewing a pot of tea.
Zhou Bai stood at the door of the meeting hall, looked up at the wooden sign, and then walked in.
However, as soon as his cat's paw stepped into the door, he heard a majestic and indifferent voice coming from inside.
"You came."
When Zhou Bai heard the old patriarch's voice, Cat Claw paused for a moment, and then calmly continued to walk in.
, in the meeting hall, the old patriarch sat on a long blanket.
Right in front of him, smoke was rising from the boiling tea kettle.
It seems a bit mysterious.
Zhou Bai glanced at him, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
This old patriarch is trying to be mysterious.
Zhou Bai feels that he cannot lose the battle if he loses. Although he is a little black cat now, his aura must be strong.
So, Zhou Bai slowly walked up to the old patriarch, and then with a "snap" sound, the two cat paws landed on the old patriarch's low table.
The tea set in front of the old patriarch's desk shook as he patted it.
"Sorry, I'm a bit too strong."
The old patriarch was holding a tea cup in his hand. He was frightened by the little black cat's action of slapping the table, and the water in the cup immediately splashed onto his hand.
As a result, the indifferent expression on his face turned into a frown in pain.
When he took the cloth and wiped the water drops on his hands, he looked up again and saw that the little black cat had jumped onto the low table.
Sitting upright, with his tail curled in front of him, he looked straight at himself calmly.
The old patriarch made another pause with his hands, then poured a cup of tea and took it into his hand.
He lowered his head and brought the teacup in front of the little black cat, preparing to say something else to regain his place.
Unexpectedly, the little black cat spoke first again.
"I tied up Wu Chong last night.
You probably won't see him all day today."
When the old patriarch heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the little black cat in front of him.
Then the tea cup in his hand was not held firmly, and a large amount of water splashed on his hand.
"You...what did you say?"
Zhou Bai's eyes fell on his slightly red hands.
Then the old patriarch looked away, pretending to be calm, took a piece of cloth and wiped the water drops on it.
"I don't think I need to repeat what I said again, right?"
Zhou Bai looked like a kidnapper who came to ask for ransom.
"What exactly do you want to do?
You might as well just say it.”
The old patriarch's eyes were sizing up the strange black cat in front of him, and he was somewhat uncertain about his true purpose.
When Zhou Bai saw that the other party was anxious, he planned to slow down the pace of the conversation.
He used his two cat paws to hold up the tea cup in front of him, took a sip, and then continued.
"Wu Chong has different intentions. You must have known about it for a long time, right?"
When the old patriarch heard Zhou Bai's question, his face suddenly darkened again.
"Did you place the form that appeared in my room before?"
Zhou Bai smiled noncommittally.
"I can see that you have a special preference for Wu Chong."
The old patriarch sighed, then picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip.
"I brought up Wu Chong since he was a child.
His father died early, and his mother was stimulated at that time and went crazy for a while.
I saw the child was so young, so I kept him with me."
After the old patriarch finished speaking, he sighed deeply again.
Zhou Bai looked at him and was silent for a while before continuing to ask.
"Then do you know why he did these things?"
What Wu Chong did was all aimed at those rooms with red notes on them.
Zhou Bai asked this question, on the one hand, he wanted to explore the old patriarch's attitude towards this matter.
On the other hand, I want to see if he will reveal some information I want.
However, the old patriarch did not give Zhou Bai this chance.
Instead, after hearing Zhou Bai's pressing questions, he looked at him expressionlessly.
"Your Excellency asked me so many questions, and I answered them all.
But it seems like you haven’t even answered my initial question.”
Zhou Bai laughed when he saw the old patriarch's aggressive look.
He raised his cat's paw, turned it a few times, and made a perceptive "click" sound.
"I just arranged a big show tonight and want to invite you to watch it.
After eight o'clock in the evening, when you have finished your business, come to the meeting hall.
When the time comes, you will see this big show."
The old patriarch was silent and didn't speak, just looking at the black cat in front of him.
After a long time, he sighed and said.
"That's fine.
There are some grievances and it’s time to resolve them.”
Zhou Bai felt that the old patriarch's voice seemed older and older when he said this.
But based on his words alone, Zhou Bai guessed that he could have predicted what might happen tonight.
Unfortunately, he would not tell Zhou Bai.
When Zhou Bai saw that he had finished saying what he should say, he turned around and wanted to leave.
However, just as he jumped off the low table, he was suddenly stopped by the old patriarch.
"Wu Chong...is he safe now?"
Zhou Bai did not look back, but said to him as he walked out of the door.
"As long as you don't let anyone find him, he will be absolutely safe."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Bai walked out of the meeting hall and walked downstairs.
With what I just said to the old patriarch, I believe that the old patriarch will not send people to find him.
Even if someone wanted to find him, the old patriarch would find an excuse to put him off.
Zhou Bai walked down the stone stairs and walked around the rooms with red notes in an upright manner along the way.
After Wu Hu had just talked with Zhou Bai, he had already started to arrange it according to his requirements.
Now there is a team of people patrolling the corridors on every floor, patrolling back and forth.
However, such a tight defense prevented the traitors from doing anything, and naturally also prevented the little black cat from studying these rooms.
So, he had no choice but to leave without looking at each room a few times.
Zhou Bai and Wu Chi helped him clean up the room where Wu Chong lived last night in advance.
From the outside, there is nothing unusual about it.
Instead, it looked like he got up early and went out.
Therefore, even if he didn't show up in the morning, no one paid much attention.
However, when Zhou Bai walked to the floor where Wu Chong lived, he saw his mother just coming out of his room, and then walking past him with a sad look on her face.
Zhou Bai looked at her, thought for a moment, then waited until she had left a certain distance and followed her quietly.
