Liu Dafu and Zhang Cuihua exchanged a glance. Their faces, already pale from the abdominal pain, now seemed lifeless.
Then, Liu Dafu said with a conflicted expression:
"My goodness, I don't know who this is. I just happened to pass by and overheard a couple of sentences. Before I could even understand what they were saying, our leader found out."
I only vaguely heard the name of the previous deputy director of the committee, something like Jia... Jia Ren, yes, that's the name!
Upon hearing the name, Zhu Qinghao knew that Liu Dafu was probably not lying. However, this information was of little use because Jia Ren was long gone.
That's it? That's all?
Zhu Qinghao deliberately amplified the disappointment and disinterest on her face, and Liu Dafu instantly broke out in a sweat, continuing his brainstorming session.
"Yes, and also, oh right, there's someone surnamed Lin! He contacted my son, but I've never met him. I only overheard my son mention him once, but I didn't quite catch it..."
In the end, before Zhu Qinghao could even react, Liu Dafu himself was quite unsure of himself. After all, he hadn't heard anything clearly and wasn't sure of anything, so such news was practically the same as no news at all.
However, Zhu Qinghao felt that this man surnamed Lin could most likely serve as a breakthrough for further investigation, so it wasn't entirely fruitless.
But Liu Yansong isn't in Kyoto right now, so where is she supposed to find this guy surnamed Lin?
Does this mean I'll have to find some time to go to the Northwest again in a while?
While pondering these matters in her heart, Zhu Qinghao maintained a calm and even somewhat speechless demeanor on the surface, making Liu Dafu even more unable to fathom her thoughts.
While battling wave after wave of cramping pain in his stomach, Liu Dafu was also worried about his life. He felt that he might as well die, but he couldn't bear to die.
Zhu Qing looked at Liu Dafu, who was covered in sweat, and Zhang Cuihua, who had collapsed to the ground unconscious, and threw them out without warning.
Perhaps because older people have fragile bones, she heard several cracking sounds as she went out, and then saw their legs lying on the ground in a very strange position.
Ouch, it looks painful.
Fortunately, the pain wasn't on her body.
Zhu Qinghao originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that the two of them had both fainted to give them some big gifts, but she was persuaded to turn back before she even got close.
It stinks, it stinks terribly.
Before, there was probably no air circulation inside the space, so Zhu Qinghao didn't notice how smelly it was. But now that she's out here, even from a distance, she can't stand it.
However, considering that they had already been drugged, and now they had broken their legs and suffered other unknown injuries, it was like adding insult to injury.
Furthermore, since there was no one else in their family who could lend a helping hand, the elderly couple probably only had death to look forward to.
With that in mind, Zhu Qinghao decided to leave the two of them for now. After all, she was going to stay in Kyoto for quite a while, so it wouldn't be too late to check on their miserable state in a few days.
If it's not bad enough then, we'll finish it off.
With these thoughts in mind, Zhu Qinghao waved goodbye gracefully and left the Liu family.
As soon as she stepped out of their house, she felt that even the air outside was sweet.
I never felt this way before, but now that I've compared it to before, having fresh air to breathe is just so wonderful!
After leaving the Liu family, Zhu Qinghao didn't rest and immediately headed to her next destination.
She finally managed to persuade Xiang Yu to move out of the Xiang family's house, and she definitely wanted to take the opportunity to find out more about the Zhu family's exile.
If she didn't know there was a "mastermind" behind it all, that would be fine, but she did know, so she can't have peace of mind until this person is caught.
