Chapter 22 Chen Family Countdown 3
In the courtyard, Xiao Hua swayed her hips proudly, "Master, those people were really stupid. They dug for a whole day and night and couldn't find many things. I secretly helped them several times before we found everything. Now, not a single member of the Chen family can escape!"
Yun Wangshu sat on the stone bench, staring blankly at the kitchen. "Xiaohua, are you really incapable of cooking?"
I'm hungry.
Xiaohua: ……
It has studied with the predecessors in the space, but it really can't learn how to start a fire. What should it do?
Yun Wangshu took out a match, lit it with a snap, and said, "It's so simple, you can't do it?"
The little flower petals curled up: "I'm sorry, master, it's too close to me, and I can't help but extinguish it."
Yun Wangshu sighed helplessly; she also wanted to eat human food.
Little Flower: "Master, let's go out to eat. I've heard the state-run restaurants here are delicious."
Yun Wangshu sighed helplessly. Perhaps because she had gotten used to drifting alone in the Netherworld, she didn't like crowded places. Now it seemed that letting Tian Juan stay at her house wasn't a bad idea.
Walking along the dimly lit street, Yun Wangshu carefully observed the surrounding buildings. The houses with blue bricks and gray tiles were arranged in a neat and orderly manner, and shops lined the streets. The air was filled with a faint smell of coal smoke mixed with the aroma of food. Pedestrians were dressed simply, some hurrying along, others chatting leisurely, mostly talking about recent events.
She didn't listen attentively, but words like "Chen family" and "arrest people" still reached her ears.
Almost everyone in the Chen family was taken into custody. Some were detained by Ge Weihui, and others were detained at the police station. Only the youngest daughter of the third wife, Chen Jiaojiao, and a few other families who were too distant to have much contact with remained at home for the time being.
The evidence is conclusive, and the Chen family is definitely doomed. But the most important bomb that could wipe out the Chen family is yet to explode!
Yun Wangshu frowned slightly. She had obtained the evidence for so long, but the garrison had not reacted at all. Could it be that the relationship between the Chen family and Hai was involving other people?
If that's the case, then she'll have to make a move. She's collected quite a few things since coming to this world, and there just happen to be a few eggs. It wouldn't be bad if they exploded.
At this critical juncture, if something happens to the Chen family again, it will no longer be a simple family feud; unexpectedly, it involves her.
At lunchtime, the state-run restaurant was crowded. Yun Wangshu wanted to turn back home after just one glance, but the rich aroma of the food made her stomach rumble.
Yun Wangshu pursed her lips and silently waited in line.
Since we're already here...
Today's menu includes braised pork, cabbage and tofu, braised fish, shredded potatoes, dumplings, and noodles. Yun Wangshu took out her money and tickets: "One serving of braised pork, one serving of cabbage and tofu, and one bowl of rice."
The girl serving the food said expressionlessly: "Braised pork 5 mao, cabbage and tofu 12 mao, rice 1 mao, total 72 mao, 1 liang of grain coupon, 1 liang of meat coupon."
Yun Wangshu, even more expressionless than her, pulled out her money, which made the girl look at her several times. It was probably the first time she had ever seen someone eat braised pork with such a blank expression.
While waiting for the food, all I could hear were discussions about the Chen family—some cursing, some doubting, and some disbelieving. Occasionally, a few mentions of the previous murder case would be mixed in. In short, there was plenty of talk.
The food tasted good, but Yun Wangshu's appetite wasn't great right now, so she didn't waste any of it and packed it up to take home so she wouldn't have to worry about food that night.
As she was leaving, she encountered two people who were composed and reserved, clearly not ordinary people.
In an instant, one identity came to mind: a soldier! And definitely not an ordinary soldier.
Yun Wangshu: "Xiao Hua, keep an eye on these two people."
Perhaps the garrison has already taken action.
