Chapter 366 Where did Miss Lu dig these people up from?
Shu Yu and the other two were already standing at the entrance of the county government office. She was a familiar face at the county government office, and soon someone went to find Hu Li to come out.
Hu Li initially thought that she was worried about Lu Sixing or wanted to find out about Yuan Shanchuan, so she came to check on her.
Only after seeing the person did Shu Yu whisper something, and he looked at Yuan Shanchuan standing behind her in surprise.
The latter was a little nervous, but still nodded and respectfully cupped his hands, "Officer, I am Yuan Shanchuan, I... I want to see you, sir."
"Come in with me." Hu Li's expression turned serious in an instant. He led the way, walking hurriedly, glancing back at Yuan Shanchuan every now and then.
It's really strange. They sent out so many people, searching every mile around, but they couldn't find a single clue. Where did this girl come from?
The three followed Hu Li and soon arrived at the door of Xiang Weinan's study.
Hu Li turned to them and said, "Wait a moment." Then, as if still worried, he said to Yuan Shanchuan, "Don't go. Just explain what happened. Our officials are very understanding and fair. As long as you haven't done anything wrong, you'll be fine."
Upon hearing this, Shu Yu was both amused and exasperated.
Hu Li went in to report to Wei Nan, and came out shortly afterward.
The study door opened, and Xiang Weinan stood up, looking directly at Yuan Shanchuan.
Yuan Shanchuan had already prepared himself mentally, but now, being stared at like that, he suddenly became nervous again, unsure of what to do with his hands and feet.
It was Da Niu who spoke first, “This humble citizen, Lu Da Niu, greets Your Excellency, the County Magistrate.”
Yuan Shanchuan snapped back to his senses and hurriedly knelt down as well, saying, "This humble subject, Yuan Shanchuan, greets Your Excellency, the County Magistrate."
Both of them knelt down, which made Shu Yu, who was standing in the middle, stand out from the crowd.
Three black lines appeared on her forehead, "..."
However, both Xiang Weinan and Hu Li calmed down and looked at her at the same time.
Shu Yu's temple throbbed, and she gave a slight curtsy. "This humble woman, Lu Shu Yu, greets Your Excellency."
Xiang Weinan coughed lightly, sat back down in his chair, and said to the two people below, "No need for formalities, stand up and answer."
"yes."
Yuan Shanchuan and Da Niu both stood up nervously.
Seeing their reaction, Xiang Weinan turned to Lu Shuyu and asked, "Miss Lu, why don't you tell us how you found Yuan Shanchuan?"
Shu Yu didn't really want to say that she had been to the black market, but since things had come to this point, she had no choice but to answer honestly.
She took a deep breath and could only recount the whole story.
When she mentioned Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi, she didn't use their real names. Presumably, when she said that Meng Yunzheng was so convincing that she drew a picture on the spot to replace the original, Xiang Weinan should have understood.
Sure enough, Xiang Weinan was surprised, "You actually met..."
Then he asked with a hint of urgency, "What about that painting?"
Yuan Shanchuan quickly presented the painting, opened it to Wei Nan, and couldn't help but laugh, "Not bad, this is it. At least this thing didn't fall into the hands of those bastards."
Yuan Shanchuan quietly raised his eyes. Seeing that Lord Xiang was indeed as approachable as A Yu had said, he finally felt a little relieved and said in a low voice, "Although the painting has been retrieved, I... I don't know if there's anything inside."
Xiang Weinan nodded, "It's normal that you don't know."
