After hearing the news of the death of the owner of this house, out of respectful custom, Lu took off the straw hat he wore on his head and revealed his face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The info boy was staring at his face.

"Ha, I recognize your face, aren't you the wanted man in Ryefield? You've come to our house! ”

Duchamp was startled, and his footsteps couldn't help but move a few steps towards that side quickly. Before he could make any moves, the white-haired boy had already laughed: "Don't be nervous, I won't have to earn the little money from the tipper." Since the morning I have been thinking, what am I doing in this decaying land? It turns out that the answer is here, of course, waiting for you to come to the door! Come on, sit casually, and you're welcome. As he spoke, he changed the indifferent color on his face and greeted him warmly.

"However, there is nothing I want at home, so I can only drink a sip of cold water." Entertaining the guests with the scraps of the teapot on the table, without the slightest expression of embarrassment, he sat down on the one-handed chair beside him, raised his hand very imposingly, and asked like a big man, "Tell me, what is the matter?" ”

Lu laughed hesitantly, masking his vigilance with a smile. "We originally wanted to visit the old mayor, but he has passed away, so let's go and go after some condolences!"

"Not necessarily!" The boy interrupted the way, "If there is anything to ask me directly, grandpa discussed many things with me during his lifetime, and I can answer any questions you want to ask him!" ”

"Really?" Lu looked carefully, and felt that this little ghost was only thirteen or fourteen years old, so he couldn't help muttering.

The man's thin face lifted proudly.

"So, are your parents home?"

The boy's eyes drooped. "My parents have been dead for many years, and now I am alone in the house, do you want to ask or not, if you don't ask, leave quickly!"

"I'm so sorry for asking the wrong question!" Seeing that there was indeed no one else in this house, Lu Ye had no choice but to ask tentatively: "Then do you know who kept the bank books of municipal revenue and expenditure before Julai City was incorporated into the empire?" ”

There was a glint in the boy's eyes, apparently satisfied with the question. "O bank books at the town hall! In the past, it was kept in the treasurer of the city hall and was kept by the finance commissioner. But now, it seems that the financial office has been laid off, and the account books should be missing. ”

"I don't know where I am!" Lu and Duchamp were startled at the same time. Lu hurriedly asked: "What is the name of the former financial commissioner, can you tell me?" ”

The boy blinked a few times, as if thinking. After a few seconds, he suddenly covered his stomach with his hand. "Oh, I'm so hungry, because I didn't eat anything until you waited too late, and now I'm so hungry that I can't think of anything."

As if to match his exaggerated performance, several suspicious noises rang out in the room.

These abdominal sounds were unplanned, and the boy's face couldn't hold on, revealing embarrassment.

"Where is the best restaurant nearby, we invite you to eat, whatever you want."

"Ha, you don't have to be so grand, there is a noodle restaurant nearby, the fish noodles are good, just drink two bowls of thick fish soup, and then a bowl of fragrant fish ball noodles." The boy said, limping out. When Duchamp saw it, he couldn't help but feel sympathy, and wanted to go up to help, but he saw that he was still very lame in the first few steps, and after walking more than a dozen steps, he was not so lame.

Duchamp asked in amazement: "...... your right leg"

"I've been sitting for too long just now, and I'm a little numb, so it's good to be active." As he spoke, the boy pulled the two doors over, and left them open and locked, and turned away.

Duchamp and Lu were surprised, but their minds were on asking the enigmatic boy for the answer, and they didn't say much.

The noodle shop is not far away, just an inconspicuous narrow shop on the side of the road, the boy is obviously a frequent customer of the noodle shop, and the owner of the shop sees him coming, and greets him cordially: "Kulo, I haven't seen you come to eat in the past two days!" ”

"In the past two days, because I was too lazy, I didn't go out at all, and I was about to starve to death, so I hurriedly made a bowl of fish soup first, and then put down the fish noodles and fish balls."

The boy was obviously very hungry, and when the snow-white steaming fish soup was served, he couldn't wait to take it up and drink it to a crisp drink, and felt a hot breath rise in his abdomen, and couldn't help but exclaim, "I'm so hungry!" ”

Seeing him like this, Duchamp asked in surprise: "Have you really, not eaten for two days?" ”

The boy nodded, frowned and recalled: "It seems that in the past two days, not only have you not eaten, but you haven't even moved, fortunately you broke in, otherwise, I don't know how long you will be in a daze!" ”

The corners of Duchamp's mouth twitched, thinking that he had to wait for someone's answer, and he couldn't help but complain, 'Then haven't you even gone to the toilet in the past two days?' When the hot fish noodles came up, the boy rushed into his mouth, felt that he was still not full enough, and asked for another bowl, pointed to the empty bowl, and enthusiastically recommended: "Such delicious fish noodles, don't you really want a bowl?" ”

Lu shook his head, lowered his voice and said, "Now that you have the strength, let's continue the topic just now." ”

"By the way, you want to know about the books. After Julay was incorporated into the empire, the affairs of the town hall were transferred to the governor's palace to supervise it, and the account books of the past years were of course all transferred to the governor's palace! ”

"The Doge's Palace!" Duchamp and Lu glanced at each other, both feeling tricky.

A mocking look flashed in the boy's eyes. "What do you want to look this up for? Are you pursuing the truth about the tragedy in Wheat Field Town? ”

"Shh Duchamp hurriedly motioned for him to whisper.

"Don't be nervous, the owner of this noodle restaurant used to be our family's cook, so here, you can say whatever you want."

The female boss, who was cooking noodles with her heart, obviously heard this, poked her head out, and smiled at everyone.

Lu thought for a moment, raised his head, looked at the young man, and said seriously: "You know who I am, and I am not surprised, nor afraid, and I know what we want to do, you are not an ordinary person!" ”

The boy looked up triumphantly: "I'm Kulo Ambrast, of course I'm not an ordinary person!" ”

Lu continued to stare into the boy's eyes and said slowly, "You are not ordinary, you are an insider!" ”

Duchamp, who was sitting on the side, could feel that Lu was gathering his strength and exerting coercion on this young man. However, this teenager is indeed not an ordinary person, and he does not seem to be affected.

Duchamp's eyes narrowed, and he looked at the boy in front of him seriously, trying to catch his flaws.

The teenager, Kulo, shook his head earnestly, "You're wrong, I don't know. ”

Lu said meaningfully: "I have tracked down, and this matter involves many big people!" ”

The second bowl of noodles came up, and the chef boss couldn't help but look at it a few more times when he saw the two people next to Ku Luo with a tigerish expression.

Kulo waved his hand impatiently, urging the former cook to leave, clasped his hands, and said stubbornly: "You have a little knowledge, yes, this matter involves many big people, but this does not include my grandfather. ”
