There was a sudden silence under the tree.

Liu Chu felt that the young man’s butt was very soft, so he pinched it subconsciously, and then pinched it again.

Huang Dan, “……”

The man pinched once or twice, then pinched again, he said, “Chief Liu, what are you doing, molesting me?”

Liu Chu’s breathing stagnated, and his big hand was immediately withdrawn.

Huang Dan hugged the tree in time and slipped to the ground. Tree climbing is really a skill. He struggled to climb up, but he didn’t even reach halfway. Ants spotted his palm, and the hard bark gave him a red, burning sting.

Pushing the ants to the ground, Huang Dan called to stop the man, who was slipping away, “Chief Liu.”

Liu Chu kept walking, turning a deaf ear.

The Huang Dan can’t let the man go like this, the buttocks just now reminded him of something, he quickly chased after him, and grabbed the man’s arm.

Liu Chu swung it away, eyes full of impatience.

Huang Dan said, “You pinched my ass, shouldn’t you say something?”

Liu Chu blurted out, “It’s pretty flexible.”

Huang Dan, “……”

Liu Chu, “……”

The man took a step forward, and Huang Dan pulled again, “Chief Liu, if it wasn’t you just now, I would have fallen when I slip. So take, feeling my ass as your reward for holding me up.”

Liu Chu suddenly raised his eyelids, with a half-smile, “Reward? Young Master Song, is your ass worthy of these two words?”

Huang Dan said, “You pinched it five times.”

Liu Chu choked, his pretty face turning blue then black.

Huang Dan said, “I won’t talk about ass, let’s talk about the real thing.”

He pointed to the little yellow bird curled up in a ball in his hand, “Chief Liu help me once, if you need any reward, please speak up as soon as possible.”

Liu Chu’s attitude was indifferent, “No discussion.”

Huang Dan asked, “Why?”

Liu Chu scoffed, “I simply don’t want to see you.”

Huang Dan said, “Oh.”

“I will write a letter today and send someone to the county lord, inviting him to come to the town for a while. I will chat with him over a cup of tea with respect to Chief Liu molesting me.”

Liu Chu raised his eyebrows, as if hearing a big joke, “I molested you?”

Huang Dan said, “Yes.”

“If pinching my ass is not considered indecent, then it’s unreasonable, don’t you think so, Chief Liu.”

Liu Chu’s face was gloomy, “Young Master Song, you insist on acting like a bitch, messing around like this, saying that I insulted you. Then I will accompany you to the end.”

After a while, he raised one corner of his lips, and said with a smirk, “However, even if you shed two tears and cried pitifully, you are still a man. I will not be responsible for you, and can only wronged Young Master Song.”

Huang Dan turned around and left.

Liu Chu walked in the opposite direction. About ten meters away, he fell back, pressed the young man’s shoulder, and squeezed out a few words between his teeth, “Give me your bird!”

Huang Dan turned around and handed the little yellow bird in his hand to the man, “trouble you.”

Liu Chu easily jumped up, grabbed the tree pole and flipped onto the tree, put the little yellow bird into its nest, and then landed firmly.

Huang Dan looked up, the leaves fell on his face, he knocked them off, “Chief Liu is very skilled.”

Liu Chu changed hands with the knife, not intending to talk nonsense to Huang Dan.

Huang Dan followed the man and asked casually, “Chief Liu, how old are you?”

Liu Chu squinted.

Huang Dan said, “Not yet thirty.”

Liu Chu said nothing, neither admitted nor denied.

Huang Dan glanced at the man, then it is not there. More than ten years ago, Liu Chu was just a young boy, not the one Ye Lan was looking for.

“”Have you seen Ye Lan? Eldest Miss of Ye Family.”

Liu Chu said, “Good figure.”

Huang Dan pursed his lips. At that time, Liu Chu brought Ye Lan back. The two of them must have met before. Why did he forget this? He should have asked earlier. Ask Ye Lan, ask Liu Chu, whichever is better, It becomes clear once he ask, and he would ’t have need to ask that question just now.

There have been a lot of things recently, and his mind is very messy, so he sort out this and miss that.

Huang Dan sighed.

Liu Chu folded his arms and looked at him, “Something wrong.”

Huang Dan did not respond.

Si Mao’s figure appeared, he rushed over, glanced at where Huang Dan was standing with his small eyes, and said in a low voice, “Boss, we didn’t find anything.”

Liu Chu smiled and asked, “Then why did you come to see me?”

Si Mao’s body trembled, Boss, you laughed, you are really kind when you don’t smile, he wiped his face and said, “Just to tell you this.”

“Old Madam didn’t go anywhere, she went straight back to the Song Mansion, and the rest of us had to go back the same way.”

Liu Chu gave him two words, “Get out.”

Si Mao rolled.

Huang Dan looked away, walked to the man, “Chief Liu, can you take me back home?”

Liu Chu gave him the back of his head, “No time.”

Huang Dan patted the gown and walked to another place. He didn’t look back, knowing that the man was following him, and wanted to check if there was anything suspicious about him.

A moment later, Huang Dan was standing on West Street.

The road under his feet is not too wide, but it is very long, with no end in sight.

Huang Dan walks aimlessly on the street, hawking one after another, stalls and shops from the street to the end of the street, there are rouge, gouache, jade, calligraphy and painting, various snacks, etc. From time to time, peddlers carrying burdens pass by with weathered faces.

The West Street is not as prosperous as the East Street but the market atmosphere is stronger.

Huang Dan heard the sound of babbling, coming from the theater, the actors inside were singing, singing their own ups and downs.

There are not only theaters on this street, but also brothels. They are not open during the day, the gates are either closed, or the servants are leaning on the door frame, yawning listlessly. Night is the beginning of their day.

Huang Dan found out that the tailor shop Ye Lan mentioned last time was closed.

He stood outside the door for a while, and a well-meaning person passed by, saying that the tailor shop owner and his family had all gone back to the countryside, as if fleeing a disaster.

It’s best to be able to avoid it, but Huang Dan can’t avoid, and he has to rush to the place where the demon haunts.

Passing by a soup stall, Huang Dan smelled a spicy smell and walked past.

Little boss in a black coarse cloth was quickly scooping up noodles in front of the cauldron, took a moment to glance at him, and showed a simple and honest smile, “Little brother, are you one or two?”

Huang Dan said, “One.”

Little boss said, “Then you go to the left, there is a seat.”

Huang Dan found a vacant seat and sat down. He sat on the stool and waited, looking around. The stall was surrounded by a semi-circular wooden table. Inside was a large pot, which was burning on the stove. A small basket woven from bamboo is filled with the dishes requested by the guests, full of fragrance, and there are many vegetables in the basket behind, both meat and vegetables.

The boiled dishes in this small stall are all well-matched. If there is no choice, Most people will not pick and choose. If there is any taboo, they will take the initiative to mention it.

Little boss is busy and orderly.

Huang Dan looked at the wooden table in front of him. Although it was cleaned very cleanly, it still had a sense of antiquity.

There are dishes and chopsticks on the table, as well as peppers and pickles. A few people are burying their heads in eating soup. They stick out their tongues to inhale because of the spicy food, wipe away their tears and continue eating.

Huang Dan supported his head, and saw two old masters squatting beside the shaving load not far away, waiting for business. The guests shave their heads after a meal, or shave their heads first, put on a new hairstyle and then eat, it doesn’t matter, as long as they are happy.

Not long after, little boss picked up a basket from the pot, poured the vegetables into a big bowl, and handed it to Huang Dan, “Little brother, slow down.”

Huang Dan took a pair of bamboo chopsticks from the chopstick holder, turned the noodles in the bowl a few times, and took a bite with the poached egg. The tender white and soft egg yolk were delicious.

Little boss wiped his hand on the table cloth, his eyes widened, “You, you are Young Master Song?”

Huang Dan ate the egg, “Yeah.”

Little boss hurriedly nodded and bowed, “Young Master Song, eat slowly, if you don’t have enough, make one shout, and this little one will cook for you immediately.”

Huang Dan said, “It is enough, you are busy with your work.”

Little boss laughed again, “That’s great!”

The wooden table is not very strong, and when one lays on it, it feels like it will fall over at any time. Huang Dan blows the noodles and sends them to his mouth. He pays attention while eating, for fear that the table will fall and the soup will spill.

There have been several murders in this town, where there are people, there is public opinion.

Huang Dan ate soup, and heard the two next to him whispering to each other, one said that he could no longer live in the town, and wanted to join his relatives, but he didn’t know if the relatives would take in his big family son.

Another said that in this world, where there is chaos, there is no place for peace. Plagues, famines, bandits, and robbers are not all things that kill people.

The two sighed, live everyday, and after sighing, they turned their anxiety into appetite and finished the bowl of soup.

Huang Dan ate the vegetable leaves leisurely.

Liu Chu at the back was leaning against the wall, with his legs crossed at a slant, standing upright, out of formality, he stretched his head to look after a while, the young man was still sitting at the stall, why hadn’t he finished eating?

Liu Chu took out his pocket watch, opened it and closed it with a click.

About half an hour later, Huang Dan left the booth, Liu Chu came out from the corner, and the little boss yelled, “Chief Liu, wait!”

Liu Chu stopped.

Little boss poured the soup into a bowl, and said to him, “Young Master Song ordered me to prepare this for you.”

The stamped celadon bowl was full of a large bowl of food, noodles, beef, coriander, tofu, dried tofu, and some under the bowl, which were hidden, and the aroma came out.

Liu Chu looked strange, “For me?”

“Yeah.”

Little boss smiled and said, “Chief Liu, after you have finished eating, pay the money, and there is also Young Master Song’s due.”

Liu Chu, “……”

When Liu Chu was eating soup with a dark face, Huang Dan had already been brought back to the Song Mansion by the servants of the Song family.

The servants at the door saw him and hurriedly shouted to report. Song Yuan Shi was helped out by the servant girl, “Ah Wang, are you okay?”

Huang Dan said, “Fine.”

After Song Yuan Shi came back, she sent out all the servants in the mansion, with death order, even if she had to dig three feet into the ground, she had to find the person. Now that her grandson arrived home safely, she finally let go of her worries.

As soon as Huang Dan lay down, the housekeeper informed him that Liu Chu had come.

Liu Chu didn’t come here to ask for money of a bowl soup, he came here to ask for a person, “Old Madam, Young Master Song came back from overseas. He has a lot of knowledge, which is not something I can comprehend. I believe that with him, there will be help in the case.”

Song Yuan Shi said, “Handling the case is the job of your professional staff. He can only write and read, and can’t do anything else.”

“If you need the Song family, you can just say so, and the Song family will fully cooperate.”

This is enough to save face.

However, this time, Liu Chu is determined to get the pampered Eldest Young Master into his hands and give him some trouble. He is also interested in seeing what kind of person the other party is, because what the other party has shown is different from the information he has learned. Those are no small differences.

After the suspects left the restaurant, there was nothing unusual, and Liu Chu found nothing, so he had to find another way.

The atmosphere surrounding the hall was stiff, and it was only when Huang Dan came over that he broke it. He walked up to the old lady, “Grandma, I want to go.”

Song Yuan Shi poked her crutch, “No way!”

Huang Dan said, “I promise nothing will happen.”

Song Yuan Shi sternly said, “What guarantee do you have?”

Huang Dan didn’t speak, but looked at the man with straight eyes. If you want to achieve something, you have to pay something. It’s up to you, Chief Liu.

Liu Chu felt uncomfortable being watched by the young man, “I guarantee with my life.”

Not only did the Song Yuan Shi not appreciate it, but also said sternly, “Chief Liu, your life is not the same as my grandson’s life.”

If another person heard this, his face would be darker than the bottom of the pot, and he would probably walk away on the spot. Liu Chu didn’t. The Eldest Young Master’s life is honorable.”

He raised his lips and said the truth, “Because I know this, I will try my best to keep the Eldest Young Master safe.”

Song Yuan Shi’s expression did not soften.

Huang Dan knew what the man was up to, so he did everything he could, “So, grandma, you give me a test. If I pass, let me go.”

Song Yuan Shi looked at her grandson, “Ah Wang, you just came back, and you are not familiar with the town. Running outside is not as comfortable as staying in the mansion.”

Huang Dan sighed in his heart, it was nice to have a small bridge, flowing water and flower ponds in the house, food and drink, and someone to wait on him.

Only when he go out will he have a chance to catch that demon.

Song Yuan Shi finally agreed to Huang Dan, without giving him a test, but only asked him to come back before dark, and sent a few skilled servants to follow.

When he went out in the morning, Huang Dan didn’t wear a gown. He wore a shirt and trousers, which made it easier to move around and quicker when he escaped.

Song Yuan Shi asked Juan’er to go too.

Huang Dan rolled up his sleeves, “Grandma, Juan’er is a little girl, it’s very inappropriate to be with a group of us old gentlemen.”

Song Yuan Shi said, “At the beginning you insisted on keeping her, but it was of no use at all.”

Huang Dan glanced outside the door, “Juan’er is very capable, she cleaned my room, very tidy.”

“Grandma really doesn’t know what you think.”

Song Yuan Shi said, “At that time, grandma asked her to be your tongfang. If she behaves well in the future, she can be taken as a concubine. As for you, you just don’t agree. Grandma send her away, and you bring her back again.”

“Now whenever grandma says something wrong about her, you just speak up for her, and you must sing against grandma.”

“I’m not singing a different tune, I’m telling the truth.” Huang Dan said, “Grandma, the times have changed, and we must pay attention to mutual consent.”

Song Yuan Shi said, “Have you asked Juan’er?”

Huang Dan shook his head.

Song Yuan Shi said, “You haven’t asked, how do you know she’s not willing?”

Huang Dan said, “I don’t know her wishes, I know my own thoughts, and I don’t want to.”

“Grandma, don’t mention this kind of thing again.”

Juan’er outside the door bit her lips, her little hands in her sleeves were tightly clenched, and she walked away disappointed.

Si Mao waited at the door of the Song Mansion, and when he saw someone coming out, he hurried up the steps, “Young Master Song, good morning.”

Huang Dan said, “Morning.”

Si Mao smiled and touched the back of his head, thinking that the Eldest Young Master was sometimes very kind, unlike the boss, who was always unpredictable.

Huang Dan was taken to a small breakfast shop on East Street.

Liu Chu and his comrades sat at a table for breakfast, each with a steaming bowl of Yangchun noodles.

Already eaten Huang Dan, smelling the strong fragrance of green onion, looking at the white noodles, he wanted to eat it too, so hecouldn’t help but ordered a bowl.

Liu Chu and the others lowered their heads to eat noodles and drink soup very quickly, and they bottomed out in a short while. They pushed the empty bowl forward, wiped their mouths with their hands, and it was over.

Huang Dan scooped up the noodles, and he ate them slowly, chewing each piece carefully, savoring the smoothness and crispness of the noodles, and the fragrance of green onions.

Everyone smacked their lips, the Young Master is the young master, every noodle tastes like a royal meal.

Liu Chu couldn’t bear it and said, “Young Master Song, if you continue to eat like this, one morning will be passed.”

Huang Dan ignored him and finished the remaining noodles in the bowl. He picked up the bowl and drank two sips of light sauce-colored noodle soup, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, “Let’s go.”

Liu Chu clicked his tongue, “Really noble.”

Huang Dan said, “I heard you.”

Liu Chu’s face twitched slightly.

Huang Dan said, “The two most important things in life are eating and sleeping.”

Liu Chu kicked the bench away, and said to Si Mao and the others, “Listen, Young Master Song came back from overseas. The truth is so profound that we ordinary people will never understand it for the rest of our lives.”

Huang Dan, “…”

This man is bad in his bones, so bad.

Liu Chu wanted to take the opportunity to check Huang Dan, and Huang Dan wanted to use him to help him find the mission target, and the two had their own ideas.

They walked in the streets and alleys, and the passers-by all looked sideways. It didn’t take long for everyone in the town to know that the Eldest Young Master of the Song family was following Chief Liu on business.

Everyone respects Old Madam Song and will not speculate too much about her grandson.

Just don’t know what the Eldest Young Master, who can’t lift one hand or shoulder, has been abroad and just came back, can do.

Si Mao and the others were also very curious, why did the boss let the young master in.

Liu Chu didn’t answer at all.

In the morning, a group of people searched and patrolled the town to see if there was any suspicious person.

When the big guys saw Liu Chu and the others, they were relieved, and felt that even if something happened, they would not be afraid anymore.

Huang Dan felt that Liu Chu was making him walk deliberately, to make him give up and beg for mercy.

Because the other party checked important people and things, only the comrades were allowed to go, and he was not allowed to participate. It was obvious that he was regarded as one of the suspects, and there was no trust at all.

It was very hot, and people were anxious and flustered.

Huang Dan asked several servants to find a place to rest. He lay down on the grass for a while, looked at the man holding a knife with his eyes closed not far away, he walked over.

Liu Chu’s vigilance was extremely high, and the moment the slight sound reached his ears, he had already shot.

Huang Dan was caught off guard, his left eye was hit, he groaned in pain, feeling as if his eyeballs were about to explode.

Liu Chu’s thin lips were tightly pressed together, “Who told you to come close to me?”

Huang Dan covered that eye, trembling with pain, cold sweat and tears rolling down together, he clenched his teeth, his lips trembling.

Liu Chu looked down at the young man, and said expressionlessly, “When I was sleeping, even if an ant passed by me, I would find it.”

“Young Master Song, if I offend you, I hope you will forgive me.”

Huang Dan bent down, his back arched in pain, his head was lowered, his forehead was completely covered by the broken black hair on his forehead, his lips were white, tears fell on the grass, and the tender green grass was stunned.

Liu Chu stood still, “Are your eyes bleeding?”

Huang Dan waved his hand.

Liu Chu cursed and walked away.

Huang Dan sat down, and there was no one around, so he loosened his teeth and made an uncomfortable sound. Suddenly, a hand was placed on his shoulder. He grabbed it and cried, “Chief Liu, What are you doing?”

Wrong.
