TSBFL Chapter 102
Chapter 102.3: 青年
[Youth]
Qiu Jiu was not ambiguous at all and directly said, “Didn’t Young Master tell us to send the man directly back to the Gu Mansion after we captured him? He’s there now, and Gong Zi is interrogating him at the moment.”
“Go, let’s go back quickly!”
When Chen Xing flew back to his home and saw the two youths who might have known the facts,he was almost shocked. Their originally quite clean clothes, now dirty as if rolled in mud, the two ordinary faces are covered with bruises, looks like they have done a lot of crime.
Chen Xing’s originally agitated mood subconsciously eased a lot, even his footsteps were much lighter, until he came to the side of the Gu Lang, poked the expressionless man and whispered: “What’s the matter with them? Qiu Jiu, you guys hit them?” Although he wanted to know the truth of this matter, he also felt that it was not worth it to do violence!
Gu Lang just glanced at Chen Xing and quickly understood what was going on in his mind, he shook his head and faintly replied, “No, they fell on their own.”
“Then they fell a bit hard ah!” After Chen Xing sighed, he saw those two men looking at him with a grudge, he suddenly coughed heartily and immediately changed the topic, “Did you ask?”
“I wanted to wait for you to come and let you ask. Don’t worry, they just guaranteed, no matter what you ask, they will answer honestly.”
Chen Xing felt that Gu Lang’s words were a bit strange, but for a moment he could not think of exactly where it was not right, so he simply don’t think about it anymore. He came to the two men, cleared his throat, and said without courtesy, “Did you two set the fire in our shop?”
Hearing his words, the two people behind Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang in fear and desperately shook their heads.
Chen Xing frowned, then said: “Not you two who set it up, then how you last time acted as if you are the thief (have a guilty conscience like a thief)? Do you guys know who set the fire?”
This time, the two youths looked at each other, the youth who previously took the initiative to talk to Chen Xing, now took the initiative to open his mouth, “We are also not sure if that person committed the arson. They originally wanted to go to confirm, the result is I was captured by you guys, no, it’s invite back by you guys”
He said carefully as he looked at the back of the man, he also did not know where this man came from. He looked gentle anyway, as if too weak to withstand a gust of wind, yet unexpectedly will have so many means of torture. It’s really too scary.
Chen Xing did not notice his unusual behavior. He just felt that their words are somewhat strange, he thought about it yet he still said: “You guys didn’t do it? Then why did you run so fast last time?”
That young man heard Chen Xing ask like that, his expression entangled for a moment. He then turned his head to look at his companion, after seeing him nodding towards himself, only then he gritted his teeth and said their intentions, “Originally, we were planning to take this pretext, to extort a sum of money. That’s why we didn’t say anything when you asked us the other day.”
Chen Xing completely did not think that this is the reason, but then he also figured it out. He probably felt that telling him has no benefit, but to blackmail is different, they can get a large sum of silver. But this is also a disguised explanation, they want to blackmail the culprit and it should be richer than them, otherwise these two seek from afar what lies close at hand (forgo what is close at hand and seek what is far afield).
Chen Xing did not have the patience to beat around the bush anymore, he just looked at them and asked bluntly, “Is the person you are talking about a member of the Chen family, and what identity?”
The young man and his partner looked at each other, then somehow troubled as he said, “We also don’t know who, just after we saw that person from inside the courtyard come out, all the way went into the Chen family’s door. It should be the Chen family right?”
Asked to this point, Chen Xing then asked: “How tall, how old, what traits?”
The young man recalled for a while, his expression was somewhat odd, but still honestly answered, “Both do not look very tall,woman’s normal size body, moreover, when I saw them enter, the others were quite polite. I guessed that the leader’s status must be relatively high. She was followed by that person who called her ‘Young miss’. By the way, the one at the front desk also wore a veil. Age, looks like it should only be sixteen or seventeen years old.”
Hearing the youth’s description, Chen Xing’s mind instantly flashed through a crafty and unruly figure, and then his mind was in daze for a moment, then as he hardly believed in it, he murmured “Impossible! How could it be her?”
