After receiving the order and the token, Zhan Xiaolou and General Qu sat in the carriage and quickly rode back to the Qu Family to discuss and find helpers.
"General, it might be difficult for the two of us to investigate this matter." Zhan Xiaolou's expression was solemn as he felt that he might not be able to investigate properly.
General Qu didn't seem to care at all, "How could that be? You and I will be investigating a case together, and the criminals in any case will be caught easily."
In the face of General Qu's sudden arrogance, Zhan Xiaolou's nervousness instantly lightened.
"Haha, General didn't expect you to be so humorous."
"Haha, that's right." General Qu followed suit, embarrassed. "I think you're too nervous to tease me."
"Haha, then what do you think of this matter, General?" Who should we get to work with us? "
"Find my kitchen's Uncle Wang." He was a flower in the market. With him on the market, we'll be able to investigate the case effortlessly. "What do you want to know? Although I can't let you know everything, just a little knowledge is enough."
"Alright."
After the discussion, the two returned to the Qu Clan to discuss the matter with Uncle Wang. When he first knew that he was going to be invited to investigate the case, Aunt Wang desperately tried to refuse. In his mind, it was better to avoid trouble. He could dodge when the situation arose, but he would never go against it.
"I can't, my legs aren't good. My neck is hurting too, and so is my spine. If I stand here for too long, I might faint. I know, but I might also be shocked. " Uncle Wang tilted his body and glanced at the two of them. After a while, he changed his angle and continued to express his annoyance. The most amusing part was when Uncle Wang was talking, his face was beaming with joy, and he was about to spin and jump.
General Qu saw Uncle Wang like this, trying his best to hold back his laughter. He pretended to be serious as he cleared his throat and asked, "Uncle Wang." How long have you been at my house and what my home has done to you? "
"Aiyo, great general." Don't scare me. When I first came here, my courage was just as great as the sesame seed. Now, you train me to be even bigger than the sun in the sky. "I'm not going to use your method anymore."
"Tsk." General Qu looked at Uncle Wang, both angry and amused. He could only helplessly shake his head. He didn't try to persuade him anymore.
Ever since Uncle Wang had arrived at General Qu's place, he had always made General Qu angry, but he always made the general laugh like a flower in a second. This was Uncle Wang's ability, so his addition would definitely allow the poisoning incident to be solved as quickly as possible.
Battling Little Lou looked like Uncle Wang was wearing a protective cover. He was extremely annoyed. After taking a deep breath, Zhan Xiaolou patiently said to Uncle Wang, "Uncle Wang, we really need you. We can't find anyone more suitable than you in Maze Nation. "
"What do you mean?" When Uncle Wang heard the praise from Zhan Xiaolou, his attitude instantly became a lot more amiable.
Zhan Xiaolou found that praise was Uncle Wang's breakthrough. He struggled to keep his brain cells alive to praise him for ten minutes. In the past ten minutes, Zhan Xiaolou had suffered an incomparable ordeal. She felt that every word she said would cut a hole in her conscience. However, when she listened to it, Uncle Wang felt incomparably proud. Zhan Xiaolou felt his vision go blurry as he blankly watched Uncle Wang float into the air.
"In the end, General Qu used a military order to stop the farce." Uncle Wang, this is the empress's imperial edict. If you don't come, you'll lose your head. If you don't believe me, then are you afraid of the empress's beheading? "
"I'm afraid." "Ahh!" Uncle Wang cried out as he held General Qu's hand, afraid that she might go find the empress right now. Wasn't it just a case investigation? How simple. "
Uncle Wang, who had just refused to cooperate despite his death, had a 360 degree reversal in his expression. They seemed to be cooperating, but they were actually worried. "It's still reasonable for him to hold on tightly to General Qu and walk outside." Go, now. "Break the case, arrest him!"
"Alright, it was just a compliment of ten minutes."
After persuading Uncle Wang, no, after threatening Uncle Wang, the three of them finally embarked on their investigation journey.
The three of them first went to the market where the poisoned people bought their vegetables, then let Uncle Wang take a look around the market to look for the old man's face. Fighting Lou and General Qu also went to investigate with the peddlers.
In less than fifteen minutes, Uncle Wang had gone around and bought a pound of potatoes, half a pound of turnips, and half a pound of beef. He returned with a full load. Zhan Xiaolou and General Qu looked at Uncle Wang's glowing face in high spirits, so angry that they vomited blood.
"Are you here to buy groceries? Or are you here to investigate?" General Qu's tone was firm and he didn't have the slightest intention to joke around.
"To solve the case, of course. I know. There was no harm in solving the case. Only when you buy something can you get something out of it. " With that, Uncle Wang left the market and returned the dishes to the carriage. He then said to the two people who were fuming, "Alright, just tell me what you want to find out." The two of you just follow behind me, and listen. "
"Do you have a new face?"
"Yes," Uncle Wang turned left after walking into the market. After walking past three vegetable stalls, he stopped at a stall selling lotus roots and began to pick one.
"Uncle Wang." General Qu couldn't see what Uncle Wang was trying to do and only felt that he wasn't cooperating with him at all, so he reprimanded him.
"Aiya, watch carefully."
Zhan Xiaolou, who was standing behind Uncle Wang, quickly moved his eyes and took a look. Then he followed Uncle Wang.
"Do you see that? There's an old man in the middle of the lotus root stand and the third stall." The inner person was a newbie. I watched him when I came to buy groceries yesterday. "
"Alright." Zhan Xiaolou replied. He said to General Qu, "I'll go buy some wild vegetables and bring them back to the medical hall to study. If it's him, we'll capture him immediately."
"Don't be impatient." General Qu grabbed Zhan Xiaolou and asked her to wait for a while. "After we finish buying the dishes, the two of us will head back to the medical hall. We will decide after some research. If you can't catch it, don't worry. "
"Alright."
When they arrived in front of the grandpa's vegetable stall, Zhan Lou looked at the wild vegetables in the basket. They were ordinary wild vegetables. He touched it and didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
"Gramps, pretend to be two taels of silver with me. I'll eat it myself."
"Alright." The grandpa answered with a grunt and put two servings of wild vegetables in his bag, "Here you go, kid." One person will eat some good supplements. "
The aged grandpa could not help but nag a few considerate words. Zhan Xiaolou felt a warmth in his heart as he listened. In an instant, the enmity towards the old man disappeared completely.
After walking out of the market, Zhan Xiaolou felt that the grandpa was a good person and wouldn't do anything that would harm anyone. The poisoning must have been a misunderstanding.
"Well, when you're biased against him, you tend to be biased towards him in everything. Wake up. "Good child." As someone who had experienced much in the past, General Qu had seen too much into the world, so he was no longer moved by just a few simple sentences.
"Sigh, I know."
A splash of cold water poured over Zhan Xiaolou's head, sending a shiver down his spine. There was always a difference between reality and fantasy. A good thing might not necessarily be a good thing, but a bad thing might not necessarily be a bad thing. This was even more the case for people, as they didn't know how to judge a person's appearance and heart. Moreover, it was only a few sentences, so how could they determine that he was a good person?
