"That day, you said such shocking words in the silk shop," Huo Anu said, "Miss was worried and worried that you were in danger, so she asked me to protect you secretly, and also asked me to check whether that You Dalang was Really dead!
"So, I followed you to the prison, and when I finally saw you come home, I left!"
"No way?" Xu Zun grinned, "It was you that day!? Are you...sure you saw me coming home?"
"I didn't see you coming in, but you turned around to the door of your house," Huo Anu said carelessly, "I didn't see you in any danger, it made me freeze outside for so long in the cold weather, no What are you going back for?"
"Is that so..." Xu Zun frowned. He had imagined many possibilities before, but he never expected that it would be Huo Anu.
"Wait a minute," Huo Anu finally came back to his senses and asked, "That day... I was discovered by you? No way, I was hiding far away on the roof!"
"Miss Huo," Xu Zun asked, "Since you were hiding on the roof, did you really not see anything unusual that night?"
"No?" Huo Anu said, "If I saw it, I would definitely tell you!"
"You said that you had been hiding outside the prison at that time," Xu Zun asked again, "Have you seen the gangster Wang Shuncai?"
"No..." Huo Anu shook his head, "I didn't see him go in, nor did I see him come out."
"Oh, okay!" Xu Zun said sadly, "It seems that I have thought too much!"
…
Half an hour later, inside the carriage.
"Ah!" Zhao Yu sneezed, wrapped himself tightly in the quilt and complained, "Master Xu, this Huo Wangwang is really outrageous. How did I offend her?"
"Yes," Xu Zun said, "I can't help it. Most people can't stand her temper. But after Miss Shen becomes a monk, she insists on letting me take her in. We have to show our affection, right?"
"The key is," Zhao Yu said aggrievedly, "Can you give me a reason? I just said a few words, and she took action directly! She is a strong martial artist, but we are all in the same camp, right?"
"Okay, okay," Xu Zun persuaded hypocritically, "I'll talk to her later and let her apologize to you! However, you also understand that she is feeling awkward because of Miss Shen's matter. It's nothing. It’s better not to offend her!”
"Oh...I see, it's my fault..." Zhao Yu blamed himself, and then asked curiously, "Master Xu, Miss Shen is fine, why do you have to become a monk?
"Is it possible that this is because I want to break off the engagement with you?"
"Well, I haven't figured it out yet!" Xu Zun said the truth.
"Okay," Zhao Yu murmured, "don't be too sad. Although you can't be the uncle of the Shen family, you are already a prisoner! I believe you will meet more true loves in the future! Hehehe... "
When Zhao Yu smiled like this, Xu Zun immediately thought of the small picture album in his arms.
This guy is full of philanderers, lustful, gamblers, and wealthy. No wonder he is middle-aged but has not yet married a wife and has children.
It was precisely because he did not marry and have children that he aroused Xu Zun's suspicion.
"Sir," Zhao Yu started talking again and said to Xu Zun, "Although the iron coffin case has come to an end, I think there are still many things that I can't figure out! I don't know how the fake Qiu Yongnian is doing now?"
"What else can't you figure out?" Xu Zun asked.
"For example, the real Qiu Yongnian," Zhao Yu raised suspicion, "Why do these gangsters insist on using the real Qiu Yongnian's body to pretend to be Japanese assassins?
"They could have replaced him with someone more like him!"
"Yes," Xu Zun nodded, "I have thought about this before, and I feel there are several possibilities:
"First, the fake Qiu Yongnian looks very similar to the Japanese assassin, with about the same height and weight, so he can be used easily;
"Two, this group of gangsters don't know the appearance of the Japanese assassin. They are also looking for the Japanese assassin who assassinated the Queen Mother!
"Three, I haven't thought about it yet..."
"Oh, if you put it like that, it would be even more complicated..." Zhao Yu sighed, "I think the origin of this group of people is quite strange. Just like Qiu Yongnian's Demonic Claw Skill, I only used the storyteller's mouth in the past.
I’ve heard it before!”
"Yes," Xu Zun said, "I feel that in the near future, we may encounter the group from the Iron Coffin Case!"
"Wow," Zhao Yu sighed, "It's mysterious, undetermined, and transcendent! I really look forward to the day when the iron coffin case comes to light!"
After that, Zhao Yu returned to his true nature and began to ask questions. First, he asked about his plans after Shangyuan City, and then why he took Liu Dong and his family with him. The more he asked, the more gossip he got.
However, Xu Zun didn't care and continued chatting with him as usual, saying what should be said and just skipping what shouldn't be said.
Although his suspicion of Zhao Yu has been reduced a bit, Xu Zunke will never trust him easily.
Although Zhao Yu did not get the result of today's test, Huo Anu's attack on the mountain to shake the tiger will definitely have a deterrent effect, so that he will not focus on Ku Niang for the time being...
…
At noon the next day, Xu Zun and others came to a place called Dahuai Town.
This town is located at the junction of Xinye County, Shangyuan County and Gunan County. As long as you pass this town and go north less than 10 miles, you will find Shangyuan City.
Xu Zun and others planned to find a restaurant in the town to have lunch before entering Shangyuan City.
However, before they entered the town, they already discovered that something was wrong.
But checkpoints were set up on the pipeline, flags were waving in the town, soldiers in armor were seen running back and forth everywhere, shouting loudly, and the streets were full of chaos...
Because Xu Zun and others were driving a carriage, a group of soldiers at the checkpoint immediately stopped them and wanted to inspect their vehicles.
Xu Zun was well prepared and immediately asked Liu Dong to show them the appointment document.
When the soldiers saw that it was Lord Ti Xing's carriage, they naturally did not dare to stop it and quickly let it go.
The carriage entered the town, and only then did Xu Zun and others see clearly what was happening in the town.
I saw groups of soldiers rushing into shops and residents' homes, rummaging around for things, making a mess inside and outside!
The common people did not dare to say anything. They were all so frightened that they hid in corners and huddled in corners.
This scene reminded Xu Zun of what happened to him at home. At that time, the internal guards were so rude and rude when they searched his house.
Cups and plates were smashed, pot lids were turned upside down, some shops even seemed to have been looted, and even medicinal materials from a pharmacy were randomly discarded on the ground...
this……
The strange things in Dahuai Town also attracted the attention of Zhao Yu and Huo Anu.
From the looks of these soldiers, they seem to be looking for something?
Liu Dong walked along the main road of the town and quickly found a large restaurant. The restaurant must have just experienced a catastrophe. The waiters were busy arranging the benches and cleaning up.
Xu Zun and others got off the car, entered the restaurant, and found a seat to sit down.
"Xiaoer," Zhao Yu quickly called one of them and asked, "What happened to this town? What are these soldiers looking for?"
"Oh, sir," the waiter bowed politely and replied, "They are looking for someone!"
"Looking for someone?" Xu Zun and others were curious, Zhao Yu said with a smile, "Are you kidding? If you are looking for someone, you will pull out all the drawers of the medicine shop. How can you hide the person in the drawer?"
"Oh," the waiter looked outside cautiously and said in a low voice, "You guys don't know, what they are looking for is not an ordinary person!
"The daughter of Shangyuan City Chang Pinghou has disappeared. She has not been seen for five days. Isn't this a big worry..."
