Chapter 204: Behind the Scenes
When I woke up in the morning, my head hurts very much, and it feels really uncomfortable to drink too much. I didn’t expect that I was already in bed. I recalled last night, I seemed to fall asleep on the ground when I drank too much. I must have been discovered and carried me to the bed.
I just remembered that I was going to catch the mastermind today, but I had to talk to the old man. After all, I always felt impolite when I went out without saying a word. So as soon as I left the room, a young woman with a pure appearance was sitting in the living room, not knowing what she was waiting for.
As soon as I appeared in front of her, the young woman stood up in a panic and greeted softly: "You are awake, are you getting better?"
"You carried me into the room last night?" I couldn't believe how she looked thinner, so how did she lift me up to the room.
She shook her head: "It was the butler who saw you lying on the ground and sent you to the room. My father asked me to come here to take care of you."
Her father? Could it be the old man? I didn't expect that the old man had two sons and was not satisfied, and he had such a young daughter. Why don't the nanny take care of him? What's the point? This is quite deep!
"Then thank you for your care first. By the way, where is the master? I have something to look for him." Of course I can't talk to her. Time is very precious to me now. If you solve the matter here early, you have to go up the mountain to find the tomb.
The young woman hurriedly said, "My father is drinking tea in the lobby. Don't you go to have some breakfast first and then go to find my father?"
"No, time is tight, so I'll spare it in the morning. Thank you again for taking care of me, so I'll say goodbye first." After that, I walked towards the lobby.
Not long after, I saw the old man happily chatting with his family and drinking tea. Although the eldest son passed away, the younger son was freed from the suspect of the murderer, so that the best thing was to let the family return to safety. Otherwise, the matter would not be resolved, and everyone in the family would suspect the younger son, and sooner or later the family would have a mess.
When I saw me appear, everyone stood up and walked towards me. Since they showed their skills yesterday morning, everyone has become more and more polite to me. After all, I not only did a good thing, but also showed what they couldn't learn.
I hurriedly responded to everyone one by one. After all, they were too polite, so I said to the old man: "You're welcome and don't say much. I'll find the murderer and the mastermind behind it. I should leave after this. I'm still a long way to go, so I'm not allowed to wait."
When the old man heard that it was wrong, his original purpose was to keep me. After hearing what I said, he was unhappy to leave: "Hey, Taoist brother, why are you so anxious? It's great to enjoy your happiness in my courtyard!"
I understand what the old man means, but my life is destined to be extraordinary, and I cannot be willing to stay and be an ordinary person: "Sorry, my son, your heart understands that the boy does carry a lot of things. Say goodbye first and I'll catch people."
After saying that, before they came to persuade them, they left the yard and looked for the woman last night. I went to the bustling street. After all, I had to buy vegetables in the morning, so the woman should have dinner. I went to the bun shop on the street to buy a few buns to eat. After all, I would feel uncomfortable doing things with an empty stomach, so I even bought soy milk to drink.
After waiting for half an hour, I finally found out that I saw the woman yesterday. She was buying fruits. She bought a lot, almost ten kilograms. I was curious why I bought so much, but I couldn’t eat it myself, maybe I wanted to give it to someone.
I left the fruit stall, but I didn’t go back to my own home, but went to the road to the mountain. Strangely, why did she go up the mountain? Someone lives on the mountain? So I took a hat and followed her quietly in the distance. With an ordinary person like her, I couldn’t find me at all. After all, I changed my clothes and still had a hat, which was completely different from the me yesterday.
After leaving this town, she walked up with fruits alone. This scene made me feel unbearable. How could such a hard-working girl do this? It was a bit impossible to get me to arrest her to confess and serve her sentence. There must be indescribable pain behind it. I will investigate it first.
Finally, after walking for half an hour, I arrived at a very lateral mountainside. Most people really couldn't find it. I didn't expect there was a thatched house here, and there must be someone living there. It must be the one who wanted to deliver fruits, and maybe it was the one who manipulated these things behind the scenes.
I didn't rush to show up, but I would find out some inside information if I asked about the content of their conversation. When the woman entered the house, I quietly approached the outside of the house, sticking it against the wall and listening to the window.
"Master, this is the fruit I bought, enough for you to eat for a few days. Please let me go, I can't do anything illegal anymore." The female voice must be the woman who just entered, and she was obviously very afraid of the master mentioned.
"I'm afraid at this time. I asked me to say anything I dared to do anything illegal. At this time, your husband's soul was broken by a man and he began to be scared. I'll tell you that there is no way. Besides, you will have my flesh and blood in the future. Do you want to abort the baby in the future?" The man's voice was obviously very old, probably at least in his fifties. He knew he was a scumbag.
"My husband is gone, what else do you want to do? I have no more money. Now there are only a few hundred yuan left, which is not enough to support myself and my husband's son. If you want to die, you take me. I just want to beg you to let me go." The woman said with a little anger and a pleading tone.
"How much is your life worth? I just want you to seduce the person who destroys our plan, find him out and kill him. It was him that caused your husband to be resurrected. Don't you hate him?" The man obviously disdained what the woman said. After all, it is useful to keep her. Men all need women, so he wanted this woman to dress him for the rest of her life.
"I don't hate him. My husband is sick, and death is also a fate. It's wrong to resurrect my husband and kill others. Even if I save him, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. I have thought about it. As long as you let my son go, I will apologize to the old man of the east for death." The woman said very firmly. It seems that she already knows what she has done, and it is too late to regret it now.
"What?" The man was angry. He didn't know what was happening inside. The woman seemed to feel uncomfortable and screamed a few times.
"I have never been betrayed by others. Do you want to betray me? Do you know the consequences of those who betray me? They all turned into bones and no flesh. Don't worry, I won't kill you at the moment, I will torture you slowly." The man was very angry. It seemed that the woman had already angered him. He didn't plan to kill her when he heard that he was not going to kill her, so I didn't rush to take action. After all, he has a hostage now, which is very unfavorable to me.
