Chapter 32.
The sound of the fight just now was loud.
It made sense that the people from the Zhen Gui Si would arrive at this time.
Zhou An heard footsteps approaching and immediately messed up his hair and clothes.
He carried the iron pot to the house at the very beginning, and after putting it back, he walked to the corner of the alley and directly lay down on his back with his eyes tightly closed.
As for the iron pot, it was clean.
Protected by the air, the spread of minced meat that Chef Liu had turned into didn’t stick to it.
After Zhou An laid down, the sound of footsteps came closer and closer, and immediately after, Zhou An heard Yu Hang’s exclamation of surprise.
Then, he felt grabbed by Yu Hang’s shoulders and shook up with force.
“Lao Zhou, are you alright, Lao Zhou!”
Yu Hang’s voice was very urgent, and as he spoke, he also shook Zhou An’s shoulders.
He was truly anxious.
At that time, he had rushed to the Zhen Gui Si almost as fast as he could.
However, he did not expect that when he arrived at the alley with the Zhen Gui Si, he only found five corpses and no traces of Zhou An.
At that time, he had panicked when he thought that Zhou An had met an untimely end, and then when he heard the sound of a fight, he followed Zhen Gui Si all the way to the alley.
Finally, it came to this alley.
When Yu Hang saw Zhou An lying in the corner, his entire body was in a hurry to panic.
The relationship between the two had been played with since childhood, and he certainly did not want anything to happen to Zhou An.
Zhou An was shaken, pretending to look very weak, slowly opening his eyes and pressing down on Yu Hang’s right hand.
The fingers slightly exerted force, tapping twice without a trace.
“Old Yu, you finally came ……”
Yu Hang was slightly stunned, feeling the tapping on his wrist, he instantly understood Zhou An’s meaning.
This kid was pretending!
As a hairdresser, he certainly cooperated, keeping the anxiety on his face and turning his head to look behind him.
“Lord Zhang, please see if my brother is alright?”
Behind Yu Hang, Zhang Si Xian and a dozen members of the Zhen Gui Si were surveying the surroundings.
Throughout the entire process, Zhang Si Xian’s brows had been furrowed, and that Chinese-type face was almost wrinkled.
The alley was very dark and gloomy, with no moonlight shining in.
It was almost difficult for ordinary people to see in it.
But Zhang Si Xian was different.
He saw a streak of broken meat on the ground and the knife marks on the wall.
“This shredded meat wasn’t chopped out by a knife.”
As the head of Stabilization County, Zhang Si Xian’s ability was naturally outstanding, and he could see it with a single glance.
The puddle of broken flesh on the ground was no longer recognizable.
“Who the hell is it?”
“What is the purpose of such an expert but hiding his identity?”
Zhang Si County was in trouble.
A Beast Cult was fine in the beginning, and then a Blood Shadow Sect appeared later on.
But another mysterious expert had appeared, and the other party’s identity was all still an unknown right now.
With these several situations stacked on top of each other, Zhang Si Xian felt that he had a special headache.
Especially that mysterious expert, who he had been investigating for quite some time without finding out.
Just thinking about this, Zhang Si Xian was speechless.
And at this time, he heard Yu Hang’s voice, which caused him to cast his eyes on Zhou An.
This constable was an eyewitness to the whole thing, and might be able to discover useful information.
After thinking about it, Zhang Si Xian walked closer and checked Zhou An’s condition: ”There’s nothing wrong, it’s just a little bruise, your name is Zhou An right? Did you witness the whole thing?”
Zhou An pretended to look panicked, “Mysterious expert, it was a mysterious expert who struck!”
Zhang Si Xian frowned, “Tell me what happened.”
Zhou An nodded his head in a hurry, “I realized that the situation was not right at that time, so I let Yu Hang go back to inform first, and I just kept secretly watching in the alley, and found a man in black surrounded by five people ……”
He told the whole thing once, but changed some parts slightly.
“Those five people were all from the Blood Shadow Sect, the man in black was their elder, and after the man in black killed those five people, the mysterious expert appeared.”
“The two of them fought, the man in black escaped when he wasn’t a match, and after the mysterious expert found me, he even brought me along to chase after him.”
Speaking here, Zhou An wiped a non-existent false sweat from his forehead.
Seeing this scene, Yu Hang beside him secretly nodded his head.
This hairy boy of his own could act ah.
If he didn’t know the truth of the matter, even he would have been fooled.
Zhang Si Xian frowned, “Why did the mysterious expert take you with him?”
He was a bit puzzled as to why the Mysterious Master would take a small constable with him.
Zhou An said, “Because the Mysterious Master wanted me to bring a message, he showed me the identity of the man in black and also understood what happened.”
Zhang Si Xian mused, “You first tell us what happened, and the identity of the man in black.”
Zhou An nodded, “The man in black is the magistrate’s cook Liu, he was originally a Blood Shadow Sect Elder, but because of his collusion with the Beast Cult, he took away the Blood Shadow Sect’s treasures and ran away to this place, and he hid in the magistrate’s office to act as a scout.”
“Blood Shadow Sect’s treasure ……,” Zhang Si Xian muttered.
He walked back and forth in the alley.
Only after a few moments did he stop.
“You continue, why did he take you away?”
“He wanted to convey a message to me, that is, stop investigating him, he has absolutely no malicious intent.” Zhou An said.
What was made up this time actually had Zhou An’s thoughts.
It was important to both rationalize things and convey to the other party that they should not investigate.
And with this argument, Zhou An completely marginalized himself.
It wasn’t that he loved to hide his identity, but it was better to keep a low profile in this kind of world.
Zhang Si Xian didn’t say anything and just stood in place as if he was thinking about something.
After a while, he waved his hand.
“You guys go back and rest first, leave this place to us, hard work.”
Zhou An did not say anything and pretended to stand up with Yu Hang’s assistance.
Both of them did not say much and directly left the alleyway.
When the two left, only Zhang Si Xian and the Zhen Gui Si members were left here.
One of the Zhen Gui Si members stood out and asked, “My lord, how do you plan to handle this?”
Zhang Si Xian glanced at him, “Don’t investigate the mysterious expert for the time being, this time, the Beast Cult’s plans are not small, let’s settle the Beast Cult first.”
He thought clearly just now.
Since the Mysterious Master had already expressed that he did not wish to be investigated, and from the current situation, the Mysterious Master had no malicious intent.
Then there would be no investigation.
Solving the problem of the Beast Cult was the most crucial.
The members of the Zhen Gui Division were uncertain.
They were all puzzled.
The Beast Cult was now cowering, making it difficult to find out the results, and what to do about it.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Si Xian’s tone became stern, “Contact the Blood Shadow Sect, if they can find Cook Liu, they can find the Beast Cult, if they don’t cooperate, then they will be dealt with severely, is that clear now?”
The crowd then understood and nodded their heads hurriedly.
“Pack up and go!” Zhang Si Xian waved his sleeve and left the alley first.
