Qi Rong was confused by Song Yu's call and nodded subconsciously, then suddenly realized and shook his head hurriedly: "No, I told you who the bad guy is, have you caught that bastard named Liu? !”

Song Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes, and the boy finally revealed his purpose: "Do you think you are the deputy state leader? Can you arrest me just by asking? Even if there is really a problem, there must be clear evidence at least, right? What's the point of being your own witness? If someone accuses you of falsely accusing a court official, I won't be able to get you out."

Qi Rong didn't know that he couldn't bring down Liu Huaijun on his own, and he would only fall into a trap if he rashly stepped forward. However, the Security Department can investigate the case slowly, but Qi Rong cannot wait. If not, he wouldn't be so embarrassed.

Qi Rong was worried: "I need you to help me find someone. Once found, I will have a way to prove Liu Huaijun's guilt!"

Although the child's voice was childish, his tone was decisive. The demeanor and demeanor when he said this were far different from those of the little beggars wandering the streets.

Song Yu raised his eyebrows, but did not pierce the child's shaky vest. "Who are you looking for?"

"An old Taoist priest, he comes from Jiange." Qi Rong said solemnly.

Song Yu's expression changed when he heard the word Jiange. He recalled what Zhou Qinian told him about Jiange, completely unaware that Xie Nanshi beside him had stopped his breath-control meditation and opened his eyes.

Qi Rong was forced to tell this matter, and he was very upset, but he had no choice: "If you want to tell me what his name is specifically, or how old he is, I can't tell you. I only know that he likes the drunken ducks in Baxiang Pavilion. He has a beard. He should have a pretty round figure."

At the end of the day, Qi Rong's confidence was obviously insufficient. After all, that person only had a round figure back then. Who knows if he lost weight later?

Song Yu suddenly realized. It turns out that this kid goes to Baxiang Pavilion all day not because he is greedy, but because he is looking for someone. Also, the one who quelled the strange ghost rebellion in Yongxi Prefecture was the one from the Sword Pavilion. This kid may be looking for that person as well.

However, the search scope was too vague, and Song Yu didn't feel that he could really find the person. It was indeed... a bit embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, Xie Nanshi, who had been silent on the side, suddenly asked: "Why are you looking for him?"

Song Yu was suddenly shocked - after hearing Xie Nanshi's words, he knew who the person Xiao Qi was looking for was? Thinking back to Xie Nanshi's sword...it's strange to say that Xie Nanshi is an NPC and it's not like he has a system package. Where does he hide his sword on weekdays?

I heard that everyone in the sword pavilion has sword pills, could it be...

Xie Nanshi felt Song Yu's gaze and looked over suspiciously, as if a question mark could be raised by tapping a little on his head.

Song Yu was amused by his own imagination and thought about it. Xie Nanshi later used a sword when he dealt with the human-faced spider in the secret room. Perhaps it was because he had seen it too many times that he gave up the disguise completely, right?

No matter what, it is a happy thing to be trusted by a friend, although this friend may be just a set of data.

Qi Rong obviously didn't know what the two "adults" in front of him were thinking. But he obviously also realized that Xie Nanshi might know something. If he wanted to achieve his goal at this time, he had to gain Xie Nanshi's trust: "The Taoist priest once saved my family, and I only trust him."

As a key figure in Zhoumu Yongxi Prefecture, Song Yu originally had the idea of ​​​​looking for Jiange, but he couldn't get in, so he left it alone. But now that even this child wants to find this person, Song Yu must prioritize this matter no matter what: "Okay, I will help you find him."

Qi Rong's face showed a hint of hope.

Immediately afterwards, Song Yu pushed the person back: "It's getting late, you should go back and rest."

Qi Rong really wanted to ask them what they had found out in the past few days in Li Mansion, but he had already told everything he could, but Song Yu still had no intention of exchanging information, so he knew that talking more would be useless. Even though the evil intention persisted, there was nothing he could do about it. He didn't leave without any hesitation, and he didn't forget to close the door when he left, which proved that the child was still of high quality.

Song Yu glanced at Jie Nanshi and saw that he was meditating with his eyes closed again, looking a little helpless. Then he raised his voice and said, "You have been listening to me for so long, why don't you just come in?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure came directly from the window and very skillfully found a stool to sit on. From this unusual way of entering, one can guess that the person coming is Du Anchen.

She raised her hand and consciously took the tea cup and poured herself a cup: "I thought you would miss your appointment tonight..."

"Is it my imagination or are you saying this ambiguously?" After all, someone like Xie Nanshi, who wanted to send him to Buddhist practice, was in the same room. Not only did Song Yu not accept this, he couldn't wait to separate the relationship, "Du Girl, let’s make things clear first. We are innocent, but we have never met for a private meeting at night."

Du Anchen half-smiled while sipping his tea, his brows and eyes full of sarcasm: "Are you thinking too much? I'm talking about your return date. It's a pity that you are still back. If you come back after the rooster crows, why don't you come back? You have to pay me ten times the overdue fee."

Song Yu remained silent. He has money, and he doesn't care much about it. But it's still uncomfortable to be calculated so blatantly.

In other words, he couldn't beat Du Anchen, otherwise Song Yu wouldn't be used to it.

But... Du Anchen is still as beautiful as a painting when he doesn't speak. As beautiful as a peach and plum, as cold as ice and greedy for money... Song Yu still liked this trick, so he simply took out a piece of silver from the system and threw it to Du Anchen: "Here you are, the bonus."

Du Anchen had a look of contempt just now, but when he saw the silver, his eyes suddenly lit up. She reached out to grab the silver, and hid it with a flick of her wrist. Her face was filled with joy: "I just heard outside that you were looking for someone. How about it? Do you need me to help?"

Song Yu thought of how quickly Du Anchen found the little beggar. This person was good at finding people, so it was natural to leave it to her.

"However." Du Anchen saw Song Yu's plan, and he made the conditions first: "This person is much harder to find than a beggar, so you have to pay more!"

He just knew it. Tired, Song Yu took out a small gold nugget and threw it to Du Anchen: "Deposit, find someone to pay the other half."

"Don't worry, boss!" Du Anchen weighed the gold in his hand and was in a good mood. With all the money in hand, she had no intention of continuing to mediate with Song Yu, so she flew out of the window in a flash.

Song Yu couldn't help but press his forehead: "There is a door to this room, right?"

As soon as he turned his head, he saw that Jin Nanshi had also stood up and flew out of the window. Song Yu's eyes widened: "Is this also a major feature of game design? Or can going out of the window trigger some special reward?"

Song Yu said and stretched his head out of the window: "That's nothing?" He said and finally climbed out of the window, and sure enough... nothing happened.



Three poles in the sun. The bed was not far from the window, and Song Yu felt that the screen blocked the beautiful skylight, so golden light filled Song Yu's bed. Perhaps his eyes were dazzled, Song Yu turned over and buried his head and face again, feeling warm and comfortable on his back.

Accompanied by a knock on the door, Xu Zhou's voice sounded outside the door: "My lord, my lord!"

"My lord is not here." Song Yu responded vaguely, then simply grabbed the quilt and covered his head directly. He is still sleeping today. Tomorrow I have to go to the Safety Department to find out who has the problem... It's really troublesome just thinking about it. Song Yu resented it and tried hard to return to a dreamland without worries and confusion.

Xu Zhou paused for a moment and knocked on the door again: "Sir, someone from the governor's palace sent the invitation."

"State Lord's Mansion?" Song Yu jumped up from the bed. Is this the story coming to his door? It seemed that Qi Rong was not the only one who couldn't sit still after being away for the past few days.

"Yes, sir, do you think you should invite someone in, or I should accept the invitation letter for you." Xu Zhou's voice was a little awkward. He could already take care of the house very well, and he was confident that he could serve his lord well. , but still subconsciously showed timidity when speaking to others, so he hurriedly came over to ask his master for advice.

"Wait, I'm coming right now!"

As soon as Song Yu finished speaking, Xu Zhou heard a rustling sound in the room. Less than a quarter of an hour later, the door opened and Song Yu, fully dressed, walked out: "Good morning."

"Morning, sir." Xu Zhou Yingwan subconsciously glanced at the sky, but his eyes were almost blinded by the scorching sunlight that was approaching noon.

Song Yu came to the door of the house, and there was still the familiar face outside - Liao Changzhi.

Liao Changzhi handed the invitation letter to Song Yu: "The Lord of Liuzhou heard that Master Song has returned to Yongxi, and specially invites you to have a drink at Baxiang Pavilion tonight."

Is it Baxiang Pavilion again? Although the place is fresh and elegant, and the food is of good quality, the business nature of the place is quite sensitive after all, and it doesn't look like a place for serious conversation, so it's always a bit... off the table.

However, for someone like Song Yu who has no serious plans for promotion and salary increase, although he may doubt Liu Huaijun's motives, there is absolutely no reason to refuse. Someone asked him to listen to the young lady singing. If he doesn't go, it will be in vain: "Thank you, Mr. Liao. Please tell Lord Liuzhou that I will arrive on time."

"Then I'll take my leave first." Liao Changzhi also returned the greeting with a smile, and left without waiting for Song Yu to say more.

Song Yu watched Liao Changzhi get on the sedan, then lifted up his clothes, turned around and stepped across the threshold. When he turned around, he saw Jie Nanshi behind him.

"Do you want to go with me in the evening?" Song Yu shook the invitation letter in his hand, took a look at the time, and wrote to attend the meeting at Youshi: "I didn't mean not to let you go, but now is a critical moment, I think It's better for you to stay in the mansion, Miss Du has gone to investigate someone, and there needs to be someone in the mansion to keep an eye on the kid to prevent him from being taken away by the strange ghost."

Jie Nanshi still had the same expression that could not tell what he was thinking, he just lowered his eyes slightly, and then threw something else to Song Yu: "Be careful."

Song Yu quickly copied the thing over with his quick eyes and hands. Good guy, it was still a white jade pendant. Song Yu immediately put this treasure on his body and said, "Thank you so much, brother!"
