Chapter 33: New Discoveries
"Master Naruto?"
Hearing this title, the words "Overlord Village" immediately popped out of Zong Jiyuan's mind, and he hurriedly asked,
"So, do you know what the owner of the village is, what his name is, and where the owner is?"
"IāI was just passing by there, and I didn't even listen to their conversation, I didn't even say hello to them, and I didn't have time to ask ...... later."
It seems that because he can't answer anything again, Hu Shifa looks very embarrassed and a little lost.
Seeing his uneasy expression, Zong Jiyuan didn't care too much, and even wanted to laugh.
"It's okay, you can think of this person, and you've already helped me a lot, I wonder if Young Master Hu has ever heard of the place 'Overlord Village'?"
"Overlord Village ......"
Hu Shifa thought about it again, and habitually said,
"I'll ask Hu Wei, he might, knows, and ...... way"
Probably realizing his virtue of "asking three questions and not knowing", he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Zong Jiyuan saw that this interrogation was indeed a little difficult for this Young Master Hu, so he deliberately diverted his attention in order to stop being embarrassed,
"Okay, it's just that the name of your housekeeper 'Hu Wei' is really enough to obtain, don't you want to be a little more serious? But then again, the taste of this dinner is still very good, and the combination is also very suitable for my taste, it seems that the chef in your house is very good. ā
"Really? Master, if you like it, it's fine. ā
Being able to make her like it, Hu Shifa really got excited and said happily again.
The two of them chatted for a while while eating, and when they were almost finished, Hu Shifa took his leave and left the courtyard almost in a panic, leaving the rest of the matter to the servants to clean up.
Knowing that he was busy looking for the housekeeper Hu Wei, Zong Jiyuan was really funny and a little helpless and shook his head, fortunately, he had always eaten faster, and when she had eaten, the servants carefully cleaned up the dishes, put them in the food box, and carefully cleaned up the house before leaving.
At this time, the small study seemed very quiet.
After sitting alone in front of the table and thinking for a while, then standing up and pacing back and forth in the room for a few steps, Zong Jiyuan finally raised his head a little impatiently, glared in the direction of the window, and said angrily,
"I've been standing for so long, why don't you come in quickly, do you really have to let me go out and invite you?"
"How dare you, how dare you, how dare you work on the grandmaster."
With the words, sure enough, someone pushed the window open, jumped in, jumped in from the outside, closed the window with his backhand, and stood firmly in the middle of the house.
Glancing at him, Zong Jiyuan said sarcastically,
"Look at Brother Wang's neat skills, before this, he must have done this thing of entering and exiting through the window."
"Master, you're really joking,"
Listening to her words, Wang Yu didn't feel embarrassed, but just smiled like an explanation,
"Didn't I come in through the door, so as not to alarm the servants in the next room and cause trouble?"
"Really? So where did you just go? ā
Zong Jiyuan pointed to a chair next to him and motioned for him to sit down, and he also sat down again in front of the table.
"It seems that since Lord He was ready to take those family members back to the county government for interrogation, you have been missing your shadow, and now you have appeared here again, saying that Brother Wang, you 'see the head of the dragon but not the tail', it is really not bad at all."
"I was hiding,"
Wang Yu obediently sat down on the chair pointed to him by the other party,
"Right now, everyone in this Hu Mansion knows that I am helping the government, and no one will take care of me, let alone keep me, and I am not like you, Master Zong, who can stay here justifiably, so I can only take advantage of the unpreparedness, find a place to hide for a while, wait for this courtyard to calm down, and then sneak out quietly."
"Is that so?"
Zong Jiyuan looked him up and down again and said,
"So, you're not coming to me again now just for small talk, are you?"
"Of course,"
Wang Yu said with a "you finally asked" expression on his face,
"I just went around and listened secretly to see if I could hear anyone in the house saying something behind my back. It really didn't turn around in vain, do you want to know what I heard? ā
"Thinking is naturally thinking, just ......"
Surprisingly, Zong Jiyuan's mysterious expression of his old behavior did not seem to be as enthusiastic as he thought, but said lightly,
"But I have something I want to hear more than that, and I hope to hear it from you."
"What more would you like to hear?"
Wang Yu was stunned at that time, and said in surprise,
"What does Grandmaster want to hear?"
"Of course it's about you,"
Zong Ji Yuan said leisurely,
"Don't you think it's strange what you've done so far? Anyway, I think it's incredible. ā
"This ......"
Wang Yu paused, and then smiled bitterly,
"You still don't believe me, do you?"
"If it were you, would you believe it?"
At this time, Zong Jiyuan, contrary to his usual casual expression, became aggressive.
"Originally, our government was investigating the case, but suddenly a figure like you, with an unknown identity and an unclear purpose, always appeared in a very 'timely' manner to assist us in investigating the case, isn't this bizarre enough?"
"Ah...... It's very bizarre,"
Wang Yu seemed to have just begun to reflect, his eyes rolled, and he said,
"No wonder Master, you're suspicious. Well, what do you want to know about me? ā
"I don't want to know anything else, just want to understand why you care so much about these cases, and even seem to be more dedicated than our government."
Zong Jiyuan looked at him quietly and calmly.
Wang Yu seemed to think for a while, and then smiled slightly,
"Well, well, take this opportunity to explain the reason and to you, Master. Let's just tell me what I do, okay? ā
"Whatever you want, as long as I can understand and explain these doubts that have been there for a long time, you can say whatever you want."
Gently brushing his robe, Zong Jiyuan sat there upright, putting on an expression of "I'm listening".
Wang Yu couldn't help but laugh again when he saw it,
"Okay, then I'll say it. My name is Wang Yu, you already know this, in the next was originally the head of the Shunfeng Dart Bureau in Anping County. ā
