Wishful Things

  Chapter 82 Affectionate

  "Oh? Zhaozhao, what do you need to ask me?" Zhan Yunzhu looked at her with a smile.

   "Brother Zhan recently heard about the Yong'an Bofu going to the government to report the case?"

  Zhan Yunzhu's fingers hanging by his side moved slightly, the smile of his eyes dissipated, and he shook his head and said: "Recently, I have been reading books at home, but I have never heard of this. I don't know why Yongan Bofu reported the case?"

   "Theft at home."

  Xu Mingyi said: "It was a book boy who was next to Yongan Bo Shizi, and the Bo House reported the case to find the book boy back."

   "It's so." Zhan Yunzhu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said: "But money is always something outside of the body, so it's good for people to have nothing to do."

  He also knows faintly that Zhao Zhao’s relationship with his stepmother is now relaxed, and he is even more kind to Yongan Bofu.

   "But the truth is not that simple..."

  Xu Mingyi frowned slightly, and stopped talking a little.

  Zhan Yunzhu seemed to know it intentionally, turned his head to look at the little boy next to him, and the maid who Zhanyun had come to show Xu Mingyi's way, and said: "The weather is hot, bring some herbal tea and snacks for Miss Xu."

  Xiaosi and the maid should go down.

   "Zhao Zhao can speak now."

  Without the family, Zhan Yunzhu’s tone became more gentle.

"Big Brother Zhan doesn't know something. In Yong'an Bofu, one of my cousins ​​who can still play has disappeared. This matter is related to the book boy. But such things should not be publicized, so Bofu went to the government to report the case for investigation. The whereabouts of that boy," Xu Mingyi told bluntly.

  Zhan Yunzhu looked unexpectedly.

   "What happened?"

   unavoidably asked with concern: "Is there any progress on the government side?"

   "Bofu has found the book boy." Xu Mingyi said, paying attention to the reaction of the people in front of him without a trace.

  However, there is almost no abnormality in him.

   "Since I have found it, it must be clear about the whereabouts of the girl from the Bo House?"

  Xu Mingyi shook his head.

   "The book boy is dead."

  "Dead?" Zhan Yunzhu looked slightly surprised.

   "Yes, judging from the corpse, someone cut his throat with a knife." Xu Mingyi looked at him and asked, "So I want to see the uncle Zhou in the mansion of Brother Zhan."

  Zhan Yunzhu's eyes moved slightly.

  This subtle change never escaped Xu Mingyi’s eyes.

   "Why did Zhao Zhao suddenly want to see Uncle Zhou?"

   "The killer used a scimitar, and the sword technique is extremely sophisticated. I suddenly remembered today that the scimitar used by Uncle Zhou in the past seemed to be a scimitar, right?"

   "..." Zhan Yunzhu's eyebrows moved, and he looked at her puzzledly: "What is the meaning of Zhao Zhao's words? Could it be that Uncle Zhou killed the book boy?"

  But seeing the girl was stunned.

Immediately he looked at him with a very surprised look: "How is this possible? How can Zhou Shu have a holiday with the book boy of Yong'an Bofu? Besides, isn't Zhou Shu's hand already unable to hold a knife in the early years? Big Brother Zhan How would you think of going up here?"

  Zhan Yunzhu's eyebrows stretched out, and said: "You mentioned this suddenly, I thought you had heard some rumors outside--"

   "How can outsiders know that Uncle Zhou used the meniscus?"

   "It seems to be the same, I am confused." Zhan Yunzhu smiled, and then asked: "But it is indeed an old thing, Zhao Zhao remembers it?"

  Uncle Zhou is good at using the scimitar, and few people know it.

  No one even knew that they accounted for such a person.

  It was only when Zhao Zhao was seven or eight years old, in order to make her happy, that he brought her to see Uncle Zhou and asked Uncle Zhou to use a meniscus in front of her.

  Because she was born in a general, Zhaozhao has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and the things she likes are different from those of ordinary girls. Naturally, we can’t use ordinary methods to make her happy.

  He still remembers that Yuxue's lovely girl with eyes full of amazement, excitedly jumped up and clapped her hands in applause.

  But after that time, his father reprimanded him, and he has never brought Zhaozhao to see Uncle Zhou ever since.

  He thought that she should have forgotten about it...

   "Such a master, of course I remember." The girl's tone was calm, but there was a hint of color in her eyes: "Who called my surname Xu."

  Zhan Yunzhu smiled.

  After closing the door, it is normal to remember these things clearly.

   "But then again, why do you want to see Uncle Zhou?"

  I don’t know if he is too sensitive. He actually felt that Zhao Zhao was just talking about it. He deliberately suddenly released the illusion that the death of the book boy was related to Uncle Zhou, in order to test his reaction——

  "I was thinking that as Uncle Zhou is a middle-level expert, I would like to ask him for advice, try to get any useful clues from the shape of the wound, so that I can confirm the identity of the murderer as soon as possible."

   "That's not a coincidence." Zhan Yunzhu said: "Uncle Zhou had left Beijing and returned to his hometown before January, and I don't know when he will be back."

  A month ago?

  Xu Mingyi carefully savored this time from the bottom of his heart.

  Cousin Qing hadn’t happened yet.

  Yes, it's like a point in time when you subconsciously want to separate the relationship.

  The cleverness in the subconscious mind sometimes seems to be overwhelming.

   "It's okay, I just wanted to ask by the way." Xu Mingyi raised his foot and walked forward slowly, saying: "There is still some work in the government."

  Zhan Yunzhu walked by her side, seeming to ask casually: "Bo Fu handed over the corpse to the government?"

  Xu Mingyi nodded.

  I heard that the first son Cui Xin was unwilling to hand it over, but now it seems that the first wife is more in charge.

   "Zhao Zhao——"

  Zhan Yunzhu pondered for a moment, and said: “This matter seems a bit weird. Both the Bofu and the government are investigating it. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better not to pay more attention to it.”

   Regardless of the consideration, he didn't want Zhao Zhao to be involved in this kind of thing.

   Xu Mingyi said non-committal: "I hope I can get my cousin Qing back soon, and then everything will come to light."

  Zhan Yunzhu comforted: "Don't worry, it will definitely happen."

  Xu Mingyi stopped mentioning this matter again.

  Walking a short distance, the fragrance of roses faintly came from the nose.

Zhan Yunzhu slowly stopped, looking at the rose flower stand that was right in front of him, and said: "I remember Zhao Zhao likes roses very much. This flower stand was used when I had nothing to do a few years ago. These flower plants are also the same. I planted it."

  The things that Zhaozhao likes have always been purely likes, without thinking about whether they are precious or rare.

  This is also one of the reasons why he likes Zhaozhao.

"Yes."

  Xu Mingyi curled his mouth.

  Because she likes it, she personally set up a flower stand, not even sure if there is a chance to be known by her——

  Which girl would not be touched by such quiet and secret affection?

  He has always been meticulous and patient.

  It's no wonder that Liu Yi was so thoroughly planted on him.

  Akui secretly pouted her lips in her heart.

  Isn’t it just a flower stand, it’s not valuable and effortless, Azhu and her can make ten of them in one day, so what can I say?

  Since the incident with Liu Yi, Akui has been very dismissive of this handsome Zhan family in his heart.

  　 Thank you for waiting so long~
