After Xia Chujian's explanation, Xia Yuan finally understood: "So, for people killed by bounty hunters, as long as their families don't pursue the matter, the court can just ignore it?"
Xia Chujian nodded heavily: "That's it!"
Xia Yuanfang thought, she was familiar with this point. Isn't it the so-called "If the people don't sue, the officials won't investigate"?
After she understood, she no longer had such an instinctive aversion to the bounty hunter profession.
Xia Yuanfang didn't ask any more questions. Just then, the doorbell rang. She quickly said, "Is that Aunt Chen?"
Xia Chujian came to the living room and looked through the video surveillance system at the front door. It was Aunt Chen who came.
She was holding a large storage bag, which probably contained about ten kilograms of wild rhinoceros pork.
This gift is really huge...
Xia Chujian hurriedly opened the door and asked, "Did you take the elevator? Or did you climb up the stairs?"
Aunt Chen lives on the first floor, while her home is on the eleventh floor.
If he could climb the stairs while carrying ten kilograms of wild rhino pork, that would be amazing.
Aunt Chen smiled and said, "...that person doesn't allow us to use the elevator..."
"Oh, I don't know who is so domineering that they occupy the entire elevator just to renovate their house." Xia Chujian muttered, not having a good impression of the neighbor opposite.
She took the wild rhino pork from Aunt Chen and said, "Come in and sit for a while. We just climbed to the eleventh floor."
Aunt Chen shook her head. "No, I have to go back quickly. Yingying's father is making a fuss again. I'll go see Yingying soon. Where are the things you want to bring?"
The meaning of "making trouble" probably means hitting someone again.
Xia Chujian always felt that this kind of domestic violence should be stopped.
Now that she knew that Aunt Chen and Zhu Yingying were both humanoids, she still thought they should be stopped.
But Aunt Chen and Zhu Yingying did have concerns, and they didn't even dare to ask the Disciplinary Office for mediation.
Xia Chujian said nothing. He put the wild rhino pork into the house, took the cloth bag he had just packed and gave it to Aunt Chen. He said, "Please give these things to San Zong. I'll take you to the elevator."
She and Aunt Chen got into the elevator together and went down.
When they got out of the elevator, the man guarding it was about to lose his temper, but when he saw that it was Xia Chujian with a middle-aged woman, he immediately put on a smile and said, "Are you taking the elevator?"
Xia Chujian watched Aunt Chen leave, ignored the man, and then took the elevator up again, not caring whether the man was cursing her in his heart.
Back home, Xia Chujian went to the kitchen and said to Xia Yuanfang, "Aunt, that man from the Zhu family beat Aunt Chen again. Are they going to endure this forever?"
Xia Yuanfang was silent for a while before saying, "You know, her family's situation is special, and they can't call the police."
Xia Chujian nodded. "You can't tolerate her, can't you call the police, or beat her up? It's a waste of the tiger stripes on Aunt Chen's face."
Xia Yuanfang: “…”
This naughty kid is getting more and more naughty.
Xia Yuanfang didn't want to continue this topic, so he had to remind her: "Yingying's matter is also a lesson for you. In the future, you must be more careful in school and don't let others bully you. I haven't even been to your high school, and you are about to graduate..."
Xia Chujian smiled and hugged Xia Yuanfang's arm. "Aunt, I'm not a weak girl like Yingying who can't even lift a finger. I'm a sniper of the Night Hunter! Whoever dares to bully me, I'll ask him to reincarnate!"
Xia Yuanfang: “…”
This child, how could he be even more upset!
"Alright, alright, you still want to snipe the enemy in school?" Xia Yuanfang gently tapped the tip of her straight nose. "I'm going to cook. What do you want to eat tonight?"
Xia Chujian's eyes lit up and she said quickly, "I want to eat that big meatball. Can auntie make it for me?"
"What big meatballs?"
"Is it the kind my aunt used to make?" Xia Chujian thought hard for a while before remembering the name, "It's the lion's head!"
"...Oh, you mean lion's head..." Xia Yuanfang was both amused and annoyed, but still nodded in agreement, "Let's use that wild boar meat Aunt Chen sent."
"It's wild rhino pork. This kind of pork is a specialty of the extreme north of the Strange Beast Forest. It's grown on black truffles and tastes especially good." Xia Chujian took the bag of frozen wild rhino pork and thawed it.
She whispered to Xia Yuanfang, "Aunt, when we went to the Exotic Beast Forest to look for the Blood Qilin, we also harvested two black truffle wild rhinoceroses. We froze the meat and brought it back. We just left it with San Zong outside the city... Aunt Chen and I will go back in a couple of days and bring back some of the goodies I stored there!"
Xia Chujian helped Xia Yuanfang while chatting with him.
Xia Yuanfang cleaned up the wild rhino pork and found that the texture of the meat was very delicate, the lean meat was not tough, and the fat was not fat. He praised it highly and said, "This kind of meat is actually the best for making braised pork!"
Xia Chujian: "...I want to eat braised pork!"
"Next time, since you said you wanted to eat a lion's head, I'll make you a lion's head." Xia Yuanfang said jokingly.
Xia Chujian knew that Xia Yuanfang was joking with her, but she didn't get angry. She laughed along and started making small talk again.
"Aunt, today is the eldest prince's funeral. Did you watch the live broadcast?"
"I've seen it, how can I not see it?" Xia Yuanfang said helplessly, "Even places like the library are live broadcasts of 3D holographic projections."
"We also watched it in the classroom. It's also required by the school."
Xia Yuanfang was concentrating on making black rhino pork filling in a blender and had no intention of continuing the conversation.
Xia Chujian didn't care. She helped Xia Yuanfang wash the vegetables she brought back today, and chatted, "Aunt, I heard that the eldest prince has been ill for many years and is in poor health. Is that true?"
Xia Yuanfang paused, poured the minced meat out of the blender, and said softly, "What does the royal family's affairs have to do with us? Have you done your homework? Are you prepared for the exam? Which university do you want to go to?"
Xia Chujian's face suddenly turned bitter. "Aunt, why are you bringing up something else?"
"This is what you should care about. As for what happened to the eldest prince, it has nothing to do with us at all." Xia Yuanfang said without hesitation.
Xia Chujian washed her hands and said listlessly, "I'm going back to my room to do my homework."
"Be good, I'll call you when the meal is ready."
Xia Chujian returned to her room and struggled with her homework for an hour.
At this moment, her quantum optical brain received a message reminder.
Xia Chujian took a look and saw that it was from Zhu Yingying.
[Yingying]: When we first met, my mother brought me a smart bracelet, and we will use it to communicate in the future.
Yingying: I was so scared when we first met! I just remembered that Fantani seemed to have taken a picture of me!
Xia Chujian: ...
Not only did she take photos, Fantani also used the quantum light computer to shoot short videos!
Xia Chujian snorted lightly. Anyone who does this kind of thing should go to hell!
