Chapter 1350: Clue Talk
PS: The network of the unit has just been repaired, and the upload is late, so I'm really sorry!
Jiang Xingchen wandered back and forth in the room, his eyes swept over and over the futon, the bed net, the chair, and the red candle, he could imagine that Mei'er had stayed here for a long time before leaving, so he didn't believe that she left because of Tang Chuxue.
"She didn't leave when she was like that in Hongyuan City, just for a ......promise to her father," Jiang Xingchen muttered.
"Wow~Wow!" The cry of a crab suddenly came from the door, and Jiang Xingchen, who was in deep thought, was awakened, walked over and opened the door, and saw that the crab was wagging its tail and sticking out its tongue to sell cuteness.
"Can't wait?" Jiang Xingchen stretched out his hand and patted the crab's neck, speaking of which, since they went to the Cursed Land, these guys have been out of food for more than half a month. In the past, every time he came back from a trip, he would quickly give them vitality, but this time he didn't give them for a few days, and these guys found them themselves.
looked up at the gate of the courtyard, and sure enough, he found spirits, small pompoms, and a big white pompom looking inside.
"Not now, let's do it for a while!" At this moment, his body was weak and he couldn't gather too much vitality, so he patted the crab again as if comfortingly.
"Huh?" This time, Jiang Xingchen felt that his hand was separated by something. Conveniently, a small piece of sea god essence was pulled out of the hair of the crab's neck.
"Whew~" The crab reacted quickly, snatched back the Poseidon Essence with a flick of his head, turned his head and ran, jumping out of the courtyard wall.
"Where did this guy come from?" Jiang Xingchen frowned, and then suddenly realized that it must have been given by Mei'er. The only people in the whole territory who have the right to move the essence of the sea god are himself and Mei'er.
Jiang Xingchen's eyes flashed with a flash of reminiscence, and he still remembered Mei'er's happy appearance when he had just brought the little crab back. In the past, the best relationship with crabs was also Mei'er. Anything delicious to think about this guy. Later, Mei'er was too busy to take care of it, and after the last attack on the territory. The crab is closer to Nier.
"Crab, come back!" Jiang Xingchen shouted, and then coughed violently, feeling the pain in his entire chest.
The crab was holding the essence of the sea god, for fear of being robbed by Dabai, and was running desperately, but Jiang Xingchen called behind him.
"Woo~" The crab turned around very reluctantly, glanced at the big white and small pompoms in the sneer, and said secretly in his heart: "I'll have to eat it myself for a while." They must not be cheapened!"
Returning to the old mansion, the crab returned to its cute appearance, squatting in front of Jiang Xingchen and learning to bark as a dog.
Jiang Xingchen exhaled slowly, coughed lightly twice, frowned and asked, "Is the Seagod Essence from Mei'er for you?"
"Woo~" The crab nodded, his eyes became vigilant, what does the boss mean, do you want to take it back?
"What looks?" Jiang Xingchen raised his hand and slapped it, and then there was a kekeke laugh at the door.
Jiang Xingchen raised his head and glared. The three heads immediately shrank back.
"Tell me what it was like when Mei'er gave you the essence of the sea god!" Jiang Xingchen then asked the crab. He judged that Mei'er should have fed the crabs, and then left directly from the back mountain. Newtown is bright day and night, making it easy to be seen.
"Woo woo......" The crab immediately gestured, afraid that Jiang Xingchen wouldn't understand, and made a noise on the ground with its paws! In fact, it also felt that something was wrong. In the past few days, the night owl has been running out all day long, and everyone has a straight face, even the little catwoman has a calm face and does not smile. Blowing the spirits and small pompoms out of the sea of flowers, there is definitely something wrong.
Jiang Xingchen looked at it for a moment. Nodding slightly: "Sure enough, Mei'er didn't go back to Xinzhen." Instead, he went in the direction of the sea of flowers...... She definitely didn't look for Xiaoxiang, so she should have bypassed the hills behind the sea of flowers...... In other words, she should be walking on the east side of the three collars!"
"Whew~" The crab chirped in a low voice and rubbed Jiang Xingchen with his head. It also realized that something might have happened to Mei'er, and anxiously inquired about the situation.
"There's no problem, Mei'er will leave for a while and come back soon!" Jiang Xingchen smiled and patted the crab's head: "Go out, the place where you are useful will call you!"
The crab nodded whining, slowly turned around and walked out, Jiang Xingchen said to the door: "Whoever robs the crab will be locked up for a month!"
"Whoosh!" the three heads that had just emerged shrank back again......
Soon after the crab left, Tang Chuxue came back and brought Grandpa Fu and Mei'er's deputy from the city hall all over.
After calling everyone into the house, Jiang Xingchen ordered: "Continue to investigate forward, and you must investigate all the people Mei'er contacted before!"
"Sir, Mei'er has a lot of contact with people in terms of municipal management. The firms we work with, super users, and personnel recruitment, etc.!" "Grandpa Fu is a little embarrassed, many of the people Mei'er has come into contact with are not in the territory, how do you want to investigate this, are they all called. And this job requires too many people, what about other jobs!
Jiang Xingchen said: "Then you have to check, Mei'er, as the head of the city hall, can't come to meet alone, even if it's a super user, it's not that qualified...... Focus on investigating the people who meet with Mei'er alone, and if there are more than one person to meet, or if someone is accompanied, you can relax first...... In addition, it is also necessary to investigate the letters received by Mei'er, so that the person in charge of delivering the letter can count the time of each letter, the address of the letter, and other information!"
After sinking slightly, Jiang Xingchen said solemnly: "Any work can be put down, this matter must be done well!"
"Yes!" Grandpa Fu hurriedly bowed down, Jiang Xingchen's tone clearly told everyone that this was a death order and must be completed.
Soon everyone left the lord's mansion and began a quick investigation. Jiang Xingchen sat in the room, frowning: "Mei'er went to the east of the three collars, it should not be the imperial capital, but the southeast, Qi Yue Ling, Nanjiang Ling, Moon Shadow Kingdom, or Dachen Kingdom......"
For the next few days, the work of the town hall almost came to a semi-standstill, and some of the comptoirs and forces that cooperated with the Star Leader were at a loss as to why this was happening. Many forces were a little flustered, worried about whether Jiang Xingchen had changed his mind and wanted to cancel the number of students given to super users.
Then, all the heads of the commercial houses who had met with Mei'er alone, the super users all received letters from Xingchenling, asking to come over for a meeting, which made the major forces even more worried......
Just when Jiang Xingchen began a large-scale investigation, Mei'er, who had been away from Xingchen for more than ten days in the capital of the Moon Shadow Kingdom, appeared at Ren Xia's house.
"Why are you here?" Looking at the sudden appearance of Mei'er, Ren Xia was both surprised and secretly happy, and at the same time deeply guilty.
After retrieving it from Xingchen, she went to the contact according to Dong Fang's method, told them that she had completed the task, and asked the other party to remove control of her family.
But the other party did not fulfill his promise, because she did not see the effect, and there was no way to know whether she disclosed the news to Mei'er as required.
At that time, Ren Xia was so angry that she almost couldn't help but do it. But considering the comfort of her parents and family, she finally endured.
Then she hoped that Mei'er would be affected every day, and hurriedly took action so that she could save her family...... But half a year has passed, and Mei'er still hasn't moved. Seeing that her family is getting thinner and thinner, she has no hope anymore, pessimistic that her family will inevitably be doomed.
Unexpectedly, just when she was despairing, Mei'er suddenly appeared at her house.
"Teacher!" Mei'er saluted Ren Xia in a proper manner.
"Sit down in the house!" Ren Xia took Mei'er's hand in surprise and asked as she walked inside, "Xingchen Ling is so busy, how come you have time to come to me!
"No, I'm here to find the teacher!" Mei'er shook her head slightly, looking a little lonely.
"Looking for me, what's the matter?" Ren Xia was stunned for a moment, making a look that she didn't expect.
"I want to ask the teacher, where did you hear about the Mountain Meizu people you mentioned to me last time?" asked Mei'er quietly.
"You just came to me for this!" Ren Xia smiled bitterly: "I'm just hearsay...... Last summer, I heard someone talk about the murder case that year, saying that the family was from overseas, and it seemed to have something to do with the Shanmei family. Actually, I didn't believe it at all, the two of us investigated your life history together back then, and you should know best that there were at least dozens of theories about the murder case back then, all of which were spread by the people...... It's true that the family is from outside, but no one knows where it came from, and even the records are lost...... Later, I also checked the classics, there are indeed mountain charms overseas, but what the mountain charms can't marry and have children with ordinary people, isn't this nonsense, as if the mountain charms are not people! What's even more evil is that the mountain charms are all martial arts geniuses, how can they be wiped out if they are so powerful!"
After a slight pause, Ren Xia shook her head and said, "I was just chatting with you in Xingchen Ling, and I didn't take this rumor seriously at all, but you still took it seriously...... Even if you want to know about it, you don't need to make a trip yourself, just write a letter!"
"It's been a long time since I've been away, and I should come over to see the teacher!" Mei'er replied, frowning slightly, and said secretly: "Is the Mountain Meizu overseas, it shouldn't be too easy to find!"
"You're so busy, you still see what I'm doing, just write a letter if you have something!, but since you're here, let's stay at the teacher's house for a few more days, so that you can taste the teacher's craftsmanship!" Ren Xia said with a smile.
At the mention of Xingchen Ling, Mei'er's expression suddenly darkened, and she said slowly: "Thank you, teacher, but I still don't bother......"
As she spoke, Mei'er took out a small box from her backpack and put it on the table: "This is some demon beast meat, it's not too good, it's just a low-level one, it's already been processed, and the vitality won't be dissipated in a short time, you can take it!"
"This ...... How embarrassing is this!" Ren Xia waved her hand again and again.
"This is a thank you gift from the student, don't shirk it, teacher!" very resolutely pushed the box to Ren Xia, and Mei'er got up to say goodbye.
Of course, Ren Xia made an excuse to stay, but Mei'er insisted on leaving, and finally Ren Xia nodded and personally sent Mei'er out of the gate.
Watching Mei'er's figure go farther and farther away, Ren Xia felt more and more guilty in her heart: "Mei'er, don't blame the teacher! I can't help it, the teacher's whole family's lives are in the hands of others......" (To be continued......)
