Chapter 438 The Old Man's Purpose



Song Shutian took Sato Shinichi's file out of his bag and handed it to Jiang Qiao. "Take a look. You won't believe what you've seen. I never imagined this old guy had done so many bad things—"

Speaking of Shinichi Sato, Song Shutian couldn't help but want to curse.

After reading the information, Jiang Qiao remained silent for a long time. She never dreamed that the Japanese had conducted such experiments back then, using Chinese bodies as the subjects. However, none of them were successful. Sato Shinichi was the financier and leader. She just couldn't understand why they did such a thing.

What is their purpose?

Song Shutian gave a bitter smile. "Perhaps he wanted to become stronger, or perhaps he wanted to live forever. Those who had dealings with him back then didn't know his true purpose; they could only guess."

They said that Shinichi Sato felt there might be a special place here that could make his idea a reality.

I suspect they haven't given up searching all these years. As for the neighbor he killed, perhaps he discovered something, which is why he committed the murder. It just so happened that he didn't get away.

However, these are all just speculations; the only thing those people know is written in this document.

Jiang Qiao sighed and then sneered, "He's worse than a pig or a dog. Why doesn't he experiment on his own daughter or his own family?"

Regardless of his motives or what he discovered, we must get to the bottom of this.

There are many things in this world that we cannot explain, nor can we attribute them all to feudal superstition. Brother Song, you've traveled to so many places and encountered so many things; surely you should understand this principle by now.”

Song Shutian paused for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, so I've been dealing with this old ghost these past few days, but it hasn't been very effective. Jiang Qiao, why don't you give it a try?"

Jiang Qiao shook her head. "Let's not experiment for now. He's in our hands, he can't escape. I need to recover. Ning Hao has been brought back, I still need to take a look at him."

As for that old Japanese devil, keep him around. Keep a close eye on him for now and see who's contacting him. We'll discuss this later.

By the way, has anyone been in contact with him recently?

Song Shutian shook his head. "No one has contacted him. We also secretly searched his belongings, and even those letters are gone. As for his other possessions, we can't see anything for the time being, so we can only wait."

Ma Liu walked in and said, "Are you done talking? If you're done, let's eat. Song, stay here for lunch. I'll cook it. You can try what your Uncle Liu's cooking tastes like."

Song Shutian stood up. "Alright, I've always wanted to try your cooking, but I've never had the chance. Let's go!"

The meal was eaten in Qiao Jie's room. Gu Zhipeng's friend had already finished drinking his milk, and when he saw Jiang Qiao, he reached out his little hands to ask his sister to hold him.

"Little one, you have such a deep bond with your sister."

Jiang Qiao hugged her younger brother and said, "That's right. Don't you know what kind of relationship we have? We're siblings. From now on, we'll have to rely on each other."

Seeing that Jiang Qiao ignored him, Gu Zhipeng anxiously patted Jiang Qiao's hand, speaking in a Martian language that no one else could understand.

"Alright, alright, it's time for your sister to eat. Be a good girl—"

And you know what? When Jiang Qiao was eating, little Gu Zhipeng was actually quite obedient. He was well-behaved, but if you could ignore the string of drool he was drooling, he was a good kid.

"Come, come, this is for our little stone."

Ma Liu made steamed egg custard for Gu Zhipeng, with chopped shrimp in it. When the little guy saw his food arrive, he excitedly rushed towards Ma Liu.

"You all eat first, I'll feed the baby—"

Wen Jingwan tried to touch him, but Ma Liu wouldn't let her. Such a young child is at his cutest. Look, the little guy, after one bite he gives Ma Liu a big smile, making the old man's face full of wrinkles.

While eating, Jiang Qiao thought of Gu Hanting and asked, "Where's my grandfather? Have they come back too?"

Qiao Jie sighed, "Your grandfather has been staying here for several days, and you still haven't woken up. He'll go back and settle things first, and he should be able to come back tomorrow."

"Mom, when are you leaving?"

There are currently quite a few people in the house. If Wen Jingwan doesn't leave for the time being, she wants to put two more beds in the house so that at least a few more people can stay.

"I plan to stay for six months this time. I haven't finished my maternity leave yet. I'm bringing your brother back this time to spend some quality time with you all."

Jiang Qiao nodded, then turned to ask about the accommodations arranged by Qiao Jie's family.

"Don't worry, the medicine room has been cleaned up. It's warm there. Your mother and brother will stay in this room, and the two of us will stay in the other room. Even if your grandfather comes, it will be enough for us. Our kang (heated brick bed) is big."

While eating, Song Shutian remarked, "Your family is really lively. I bet you can eat an extra bowl of rice during meals."

Ma Liu brought over the rice bowl and said, "Eat as much as you want. I can't guarantee anything else, but there's plenty of food."

Speaking of which, Ma Liu's cooking is really delicious; Song Shutian kept praising it while eating.

"Sixth Uncle, you could be a head chef. This taste is something most people can't replicate. If I ever come here again, I'll just eat at your house."

Ma Liu nodded with a smile, "Why not? Come and eat. But there's one thing: don't talk to us about money. Talking about money makes things meaningless. I wouldn't even be happy to entertain someone else if they were paying me."

Song Shutian chuckled, "Sixth Uncle, I never intended to give you any money. What kind of relationship do I have with you? Just treat me like your nephew. If you give me some pointers later, that will be enough for me to benefit from for a lifetime."

Ma Liuduo, a humble person, said, "Come on, someone like you doesn't need my guidance. Young man, work hard and take good care of our Qiao'er in the future. She has everything she needs. Don't hesitate to ask us for anything. We're all family, so let's not talk like strangers. Eat up."

Jiang Qiao swallowed the food in her mouth. "Wait, next year, we plan to slaughter a pig at home. If you want to eat pork and blood sausage, try to come here on a business trip. If you crave meat, we plan to raise a few chickens in the countryside in the spring."

"That's great! It's settled then. Save some pork for me. I like to eat bones, so keep all your big bones, okay?"

Qiao Jie watched the two young people interact with a smile, and the old man's eyes narrowed with laughter. "Okay, if you like it, I'll save it for you later."

"Song, when you're not busy, come over for dinner. It'll be more lively. Before, it was just the two of us, grandfather and grandson, so it wasn't very lively. Now that there are more people, just hearing their voices makes it feel lively."

Song Shutian never expected that his free meal would evoke so many emotions in the old man. It must be Jiang Qiao's family. If it were any other family, they would be afraid of not having enough food for their relatives.
