Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 691: Chapter 691: Seeing Boss He Again Chapter 691: Chapter 691: Seeing Boss He Again The hall was packed with a lot of people, all with ropes binding their hands, their faces filled with panic as they tried to shrink back as much as possible.

In the center of the Interrogation Hall, a narrow stool was placed with a person bound to it, looking like they were about to be executed, but it had been interrupted before it could begin.

The person let out a sigh of relief, slowly slid off the stool, and turned his head toward the direction of the door.

Then, he saw Shu Yu.

Shu Yu also saw him, and to her surprise, it was an acquaintance—Boss He?

Boss He’s eyes widened as he focused his gaze on her. After all, in the group, she was the only woman, too conspicuous.

“It’s her,” Boss He suddenly stretched out his bound hands, pointing at her, “Bailiff, it’s her. She told me I had offended some dirty entities and asked me to make offerings to the Min Family girl. I really have nothing to do with the Min Family’s murder case—you can find out by questioning her.”

Shu Yu, “…”

The other constables present, “…” Arresting someone who came with Lord Cheng right in front of him, had Boss He lost his mind? How did he ever become a local tyrant?

Because of his interruption, Lord Cheng’s anger subsided.

He turned to ask Shu Yu, “Do you know him? What murder case of the Min Family?”

Shu Yu’s forehead marked with three black lines, explained the situation in an embarrassed yet tactful manner.

Lord Cheng and Qi Chan were at a loss for words.

“You do have some quick wits.”

His judgment was indeed not mistaken; despite her young age, this girl was both brave and resourceful.

Shu Yu earnestly explained, “Lord, Teacher, I am telling the truth; I really did learn the Face Reading Technique.”

“Oh? Is that so? Then can you read mine?”

Shu Yu chuckled, finding herself in a tough spot.

“Lord, I only learned the basics and can only predict the fortunes of ordinary people for the next few days at most. For distinguished individuals like Lord and Teacher, I am not capable of reading and would need to refer you to my teacher.”

Lord Cheng and Qi Chan understood that it was indeed a temporary measure thought of under the threats of the local tyrant; this girl was exceptionally intelligent.

Shu Yu could tell they did not believe her; she thought, genius is lonely and misunderstood, no matter.

Lord Cheng, however, thought of lending Shu Yu a hand; he looked at the nearby constables, “Has anything been found out from this man?”

“Not, not yet.” Since Shu Yu had spoken, the constables stood close by and had heard everything clearly.

They also understood Lord Cheng’s attitude toward Shu Yu.

Lord Cheng glanced at the constable, said no more, but instead turned to a guard behind him, speaking, “Cheng Xian, take charge here. Thoroughly question them, the truly suspicious ones must be detained, the rest are to be released by my order.”

After issuing warnings to a few constables present, “And you, do your duty properly. If anyone causes chaos in the county town by arresting people indiscriminately, creating trouble for me, go back home.”

“Yes, yes, Lord.”

After scolding them, Lord Cheng handed the matter over to Cheng Xian to find out who was behind the indiscriminate arrests and to detain them, then turned to Yao Po, “Let’s see if your father is among these people?”

Yao Po nodded repeatedly, pointing to someone in the back, “There, he’s right there.”

While Lord Cheng was speaking with Shu Yu, he had already begun looking for his father.
