Chapter 62: Shocking! [Please read on, I’ll be left in the cold if you don’t. Crying]

Zeng Anmin's face froze, then he smiled dryly and nodded:

"Ahem, yes, I can still vividly remember the shock of you conquering the demon last night."

"Hmph." Dad didn't comment.

Zeng Anmin changed the topic and focused his attention on An Shiyi in front of him.

At this moment, An Shiyi looked pitiful and charming, and her beauty was still as strong as when they first met that day.

But at this moment she was curled up in the corner, not even daring to raise her head.

"Today is the first time I've seen a demon race..."

Zeng Anmin's voice was very curious, and he slowly came to An Shiyi's side.

I could faintly smell a strange scent between my noses.

The smell wasn't bad, but for some reason it made him feel nauseous.

Zeng Anmin moved his nose, frowned and asked:

"What's that smell?"

"It has been cursed, and its demonic power cannot be used, so it can hide its demonic aura."

"But she fought with Wang Deli last night, breaking the forbidden spell, and the demonic aura within her was naturally exposed."

Dad’s voice always comes so timely to answer questions.

"Oh~ It's a demon spirit."

Zeng Anmin suddenly realized.

I remembered the three words "demon spirit" that Monkey King often said in Journey to the West that I read in my previous life.

It turns out that I smelled it.

He was about to ask again when a familiar voice came from outside.

"Governor, Lin Rong requests an audience."

"Come in."

Dad's expression returned to indifference, his back straightened, and an air of majesty emanated from him.

Outside, Lin Rong received the order and walked towards the bedroom.

He looked extremely respectful and saluted his father.

"Sir, we followed the trail for an hour last night and finally found the exit of the secret passage..."

"The body of King Jiang was found in a dense forest fifty miles outside the city."

He briefly described his itinerary for the previous night.

Fifty miles away, the body of King Jiang was found?

Dad frowned and didn't say anything, his eyes just stayed on Lin Rong.

Lin Rong crouched even lower:

"Prince Jiang died at the hands of a warrior. Judging by the wielder, he must have been a peak-level Visualization Realm expert. However, after checking all the registered warriors in Liangjiang County, no one matched..."

Dad slowly raised his head and glanced at Zeng Anmin.

This sight made Zeng Anmin feel uncomfortable all over.

He touched his nose and asked in a puzzled manner:

"Why are you looking at me?"

Dad ignored him, looked at Lin Rong, and said in a low voice:

"Who is this warrior who is now famous throughout Liangjiang County but is not listed in the official records?"

Lin Rong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly looked up: "You mean... Black Cat..."

Dad nodded indifferently:

"It's possible, but we have to check."

"yes."

"Oh right." Dad called Lin Rong and turned his gaze to Zeng Anmin who was standing beside him.

"Leader Zuo has some skills in investigating cases. If you are unsure, you can ask him for advice."

"That's great!" Lin Rong's face showed excitement.

He quickly turned to look at Zeng Anmin, his face full of smiles:

"Thank you, nephew, for this case."

…

Zeng Anmin pursed his lips slightly.

Should I check myself?

"Uh, okay... You go first. I'll come find you after I finish my work at the clerk's office."

"Okay!" Lin Rong chose to say goodbye.

As soon as he left, a voice sounded at the door:

"Master!"

Dachun came in from the outer door, looking exhausted.

After seeing the old man, he bowed respectfully to him and said, "Master!"

"Yeah." Dad lowered his head and continued to look at the file in his hand.

"Dachun."

Zeng Anmin was about to talk to Dachun, but he saw Dachun winking at him:

"Master, you are finally back. Has Prince Jiang found you?"

Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched.

Stop pretending.

Dad told me everything, tell him that I went to the Jiaofangsi.

Zeng Shilin slowly raised his head, his eyes like piercing swords.

Feeling the gaze behind him like a sharp sword.

Zeng Anmin gritted his teeth and laughed:

"Well, sort of."

As he said that, he grabbed Dachun and walked towards An Shiyi, pointing at An Shiyi and said:

"Did you see it? This is the demon race."

Dachun looked over and curiosity flashed across his face. He curiously stretched out his finger and tapped An Shiyi's face.

An Shiyi was so scared that she quickly shrank her body, with tears on her face.

"It looks no different from a human."

Dachun was about to reach out and touch it again.

"Okay, I still have some use for this clam spirit." Dad's voice rang out, and the order to leave was contained in his words.

"Oh."

Dachun quickly stood up respectfully and followed Zeng Anmin.

Wait until they walk out of the room.

Zeng Shilin slowly raised his head and looked at his son's back. He murmured deeply:

"Black Cat Warrior..."

Looking at his hand again, it was the city gate record from yesterday.

He circled a very small line of words in red:

"Zeng Zuoli of the Xuanjing Division rode out of the city on horseback at 1:15 PM last night!"

…

"Governor, someone wants to see you."

Zeng Shilin had just put down the city gate record in his hand when someone respectfully reported.

"who?"

"Young Master Hu... and Madam... are here to bring you food..."

"master."

Outside the door.

Aunt Lin came out of the door of the living room, carrying a lunch box and holding Hu Zi's little hand with her other hand.

Her face was full of tenderness, her eyes were like water, neither hurried nor slow.

Qi Bo followed her respectfully.

"What are you doing here?"

Dad looked at her, frowning.

"Master did not return home last night and ate outside. I was worried about him both physically and mentally."

Aunt Lin smiled, not caring about the frown on her father's face. She put the lunch box on the table and said softly:

"Quan Fu didn't come home last night. I guess he ate out..."

"I'll bring some food to you and your son."

Having said that, Aunt Lin looked at An Shiyi who was curled up in the corner, then slowly turned her head, with a hint of resentment in her eyes:

"Home-cooked food is always cleaner than food eaten outside."

When Dad heard this, his face froze slightly.

Everyone can hear the implication.

He glanced at Qi Bo behind Aunt Lin calmly:

"The servants in the mansion should clean up what needs to be done."

Qi Bo's body stiffened: "Yes."

"This is the lotus seed porridge I made myself, and some of the food that Master likes every day..."

Aunt Lin simply stretched out her fair hands and carried out the dishes one by one, her voice extremely gentle.

The aroma emanated, and Hu Zi's eyes lit up, his mouth drooling. He stretched out his little hand and said anxiously:

"Grandpa...hold me."

…………

Dianli Office.

Zeng Anmin glanced at Dachun:

"Who told you to go to the Jiaofangsi to find me?"

Dachun raised his wise eyes and said with a very smart face:

"The master told you to keep an eye on the secret passage. I was afraid he wouldn't see you when he came back, so I went to the Jiaofangsi to look for you. Who would have thought I'd run into the master hunting down a demon..."

"But don't worry, I didn't say anything. I just said I was looking for someone."

…

Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched.

He slumped down in a chair, his eyes dull.

I also have a clear understanding of this smart person in front of me.

Dachun's voice continued with great interest:

"You don't know how skilled the master was in catching that demon at the Music Bureau last night!"

As he spoke, he imitated her, holding his hands on his waist and staring with wide eyes:

"Little clam spirit, reveal your true form now!!"

Zeng Anmin was too lazy to pay attention to him and sat up to look at the files on the case.

As soon as his hand touched the file, his whole body froze slightly.

"Clam spirit?!"

No!!

Isn't it fish spirit? ! !

Zeng Anmin looked up in horror.
