CHAPTER 179: CHAPTER 162: THIS TRIP WAS WORTH IT

Afternoon.

Just as Yuchi and Xun Xian were heading to the Defense Department, at the same time, Song Yinghan had already brought Qingzhu to the Zhou Family.

Why come to the Zhou Family?

Song Yinghan just wanted to see if she could find some additional clues.

After all, the current clues were all found by Yuchi, and as a member of the Celestial Observation Platform, it was quite embarrassing for her.

The ever-strong Sister Yinghan.

She had to find some clues that Yuchi did not know about, only then could she prove that our Celestial Observation Platform is still formidable.

Otherwise, all the glory would go to you, Yuchi. How would I report back afterwards? Should I tell Tianjian:

"All of this was done by Yuchi, I just came to take part in a walk-through animation."

"Does it make a difference whether I’m involved in this matter or not?"

Song Yinghan felt that as the Celestial Capital Department’s Grand Master,

she couldn’t possibly afford such embarrassment.

Zhou Xingcai didn’t think this way; she hadn’t left the Zhou Family for a long time.

Ever since the young man who pursued her left, she seemed to be in a dazed state.

Sitting woodenly on the bench, she looked at Song Yinghan and Qingzhu before her.

Her eyes lacked spirit.

Looking at her, she had a kind of dead pig that isn’t afraid of boiling water attitude.

"Did you detain Yuchi back then because of the Cloud Mountain Sect?" Song Yinghan asked directly.

She didn’t bother to reveal her identity.

"Yes."

Zhou Xingcai believed that this time the other party came to the door, it meant they had completely grasped all the clues.

If that’s the case, what else is there to hide? Calmly, she directly answered, "Our Cloud Mountain Sect didn’t want the merchant guild to rise."

"It has a significant interest conflict with us, if it were you."

"You would choose the same as us."

She held a teacup, looking entirely different from the embarrassment of the previous night.

Calm, is it?

"Explain the situation at that time in detail."

Song Yinghan wore the White Fox Mask, "As long as you cooperate with our investigation and make amends by your deeds, we will consider pardoning you."

"At least, this matter was arranged by the people of Cloud Mountain Sect behind you."

"Without them, you wouldn’t have treated Yuchi this way; you have a hint of being coerced in this."

Does Zhou Xingcai believe it?

She certainly doesn’t believe it, yet there’s no reason not to.

With a bitter smile, she lowered her head and answered:

"At that time I received a request from the Cloud Mountain Sect to capture Yuchi."

"When Yuchi came to our Zhou Family, we used some means to lock him in the dungeon."

"A few days later, the elder of the Cloud Mountain Sect and Brother Yun Chun arrived."

"They wanted to extract the last bit of use from Yuchi, so they took him away from Jiangzhou City."

"To destroy the evidence and attempt to gain control of the merchant guild."

Zhou Xingcai guessed and said.

"But Yuchi is not dead, is he?" Song Yinghan asked.

"I don’t know if he’s dead or not, he seemed dead, yet not dead. In my heart, he is both dead and not dead."

Yes, Schrödinger’s Yuchi, indeed quantum mechanics has its reasoning when uncertainty arises.

Then, after a while of questioning by Song Yinghan, she thoroughly understood the cause of the matter.

"The result was still the same as Yuchi said, I didn’t obtain any new clues."

"What a pity."

Song Yinghan was about to leave.

Zhou Xingcai looked at her, "I haven’t asked your name yet."

Song Yinghan didn’t look back, "You’re not worthy to know."

Zhou Xingcai was utterly blocked.

Qingzhu looked at Song Yinghan beside her, "I’m starting to like her a bit."

...

After Song Yinghan had completely left, a person walked in from outside the door, it was Chen Weiran.

Chen Weiran looked at her with satisfaction, "You’re very smart."

Light returned to Zhou Xingcai’s face, "It’s all because of the lord’s good nurturing. Lord, when can I leave Jiangzhou City?"

Chen Weiran had come a long time ago and had explained the situation.

So what Zhou Xingcai just said were things Chen Weiran wanted her to say.

Everything she said was related to the Cloud Mountain Sect.

Pushing all the responsibilities subtly onto the Cloud Mountain Sect.

If Song Yinghan goes on to investigate the Cloud Mountain Sect, all the people who know the situation in the Cloud Mountain Sect have perished; dead men tell no tales, then there won’t be any problems!

For Zhou Xingcai, she received Chen Weiran’s promise that she could go live in another city!

This is salvation.

But is this what Chen Weiran thinks?

Evidently not.

He mumbled.

"So now there are only two who can serve as witnesses."

Chen Weiran stood with his arms folded beside Zhou Xingcai, "One is you, the other is Xun Yu from the Defense Department."

"Xun Yu is not a problem."

"At this time, Yuan Tiangang must have already dealt with Xun Yu, Xun Yu cannot reveal such matters."

"Only you remain."

Chen Weiran looked at Zhou Xingcai, Zhou Xingcai was very agitated.

It’s finally time for her to leave Jiangzhou City; she had already prepared gold and silver.

Once she left Jiangzhou City, she could start life anew, and return once she achieved success.

To let these people know her prowess!

Especially that Yuchi; the entire matter was caused because of him. If not for him, she would still be Zhou Xingcai.

Still that very proud woman.

A young man beside her still constantly pursued her, becoming her loyal dog.
