Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 98: Chapter 93 haha, Chen 94 is done for!

Chapter 98 -93 haha, Chen 94 is done for!

“Brother Yu, it’s better to believe there’s something than nothing!”

Zhao Xun said from the side. In fact, he also had great hatred for Chen Jie. If it weren’t for Chen Jie’s sudden appearance, he would not have felt such a crisis, leading him to take the reckless step of killing Wu Zhong.

Now that the matter was exposed, his future was ruined.

*If he couldn’t have his way, he wouldn’t let others succeed either.*

So no matter if that person was Chen Jiusi or not, he had to take revenge on Chen Jiusi.

At this moment, Zhao Xun continued, “I heard that before his death, Young Master San Liu liked Chen Jiusi’s wife, Su Yunjin, the most. Now that Young Master San Liu is dead, Chen Jiusi is the most suspicious. He is hiding in the Bai Family’s house, and we can’t do anything about it. But we can rush to his house now, capture his wife, and if he refuses to come out to save her, we can use her to commemorate Young Master San Liu. Thus, we might comfort the spirit of Third Master San Liu in heaven!”

Upon hearing this, Yu Biao’s eyes became sharp instantly. Indeed, San Liu loved Su Yunjin very much.

*Since my son liked you so much, you should go with him!*

“Let’s go!”

Yu Biao said as he waved his hand, directly rushing into Chen Jiusi’s home.

With one kick, they smashed open the courtyard gate, and a group of people followed.

This commotion also disturbed Uncle Erba’s family. At this time, Xiao Hu got up and saw the courtyard of Jiu Si’s house ablaze.

He immediately woke up, remembering what Jiu Si told him during the day.

“Xiao Hu, if someone comes to my house tonight, don’t worry about anything else. Take your parents and leave the house immediately to find a place to hide; talk about everything tomorrow.”

Thinking this, Xiao Hu quickly told the awakened Uncle and Aunt Erba, “Dad, Mom, we can’t stay in the house. Take your things and leave with me through the back door.”

“Ah, Hu Zi, what’s going on?”

The two were bewildered, but Hu Zi didn’t answer. He carried the crippled Uncle Erba on his back and ran out through the back door.

Aunt Erba was still reluctant to leave the junk at home. At this time, Hu Zi said, “Forget those things, let’s go, Mom!”

The three of them ran out through the back door.

Meanwhile, in Chen Jie’s courtyard, the door was kicked open, and the whole house was empty.

Soon, the ones searching returned to report, “Master, the house has been searched, and no one is there.”

“Master, the side rooms have been searched as well, and no one is there.”

“Master, the cellar has been searched, and no one is there!”

A group of people chattered away, and Yu Biao frowned deeply. Zhao Xun, next to him, said, “Brother Yu, I told you there’s something wrong with Chen Jiusi. It must be him tonight; otherwise, how could he have arranged for his wife to hide in advance?”

Yu Biao frowned, “Was it really him?”

Yu Biao still couldn’t believe it. He couldn’t believe it because it was too bizarre. He couldn’t believe that just a month and a half ago, a guy who was a useless gambler could change so much in just half a month and kill their San Liu.

*It was simply too unbelievable.*

However, it was certain that Chen Jiusi had run away in advance. Thinking of this, Yu Biao turned his head and suddenly saw a few people not far away who were watching the excitement.

One of them was limping, and another was a father and son pair.

Yu Biao frowned and asked, “Who are they?”

Upon hearing the question, a disciple from the Guild Cao in Xiantao Village replied, “Master, the lame one is Lu San, and the father and son are Chen Sanliu and his father. They are known as Chen Jiusi’s paternal uncle and cousin!”

Zhao Xun also said, “I know them well. We can have them help in finding Chen Jiusi.”

Thinking of this, Zhao Xun immediately waved his hand and called, “Lu San, Chen Sanliu and his father, come over.”

At this time, Lu San stood at a distance, with the injuries from a previous fight with the Chen family father and son still on his face. Supported by Lu Qinsi, there was a gloating expression on his face.

This time, Chen Jiusi was in deep trouble. Look at these people with torches and weapons, they’re ready to kill.

Moreover, I see the Big Ship Leader among them. He must have offended the fishery.

Lu Qinsi added from the side, “The leader seems to be Master Yu from the town.”

Lu San laughed, “This is interesting. It must be that rascal Chen Jiusi owes too much money to the gambling house, and Master Yu came personally to collect the debt. When it reached the fishery, they let the Big Ship Leader bring Master Yu to collect the debt. Chen Jiusi is finished!”

Hearing this, Lu Qinsi laughed, “Serves him right, let him be arrogant, he deserves it!”

The curse was quite satisfying.

Chen Sanliu and his father were equally happy at this time. These two families had envy, jealousy, and hatred for Chen Jiusi to the bone.

Seeing Chen Jie living well was more unbearable than killing them!

They couldn’t wait to see Chen Jie get raided, just to vent their anger.

At this moment, the Big Ship Leader waved for them to come over.

The two saw this and were instantly excited. Could this be an opportunity for them?

Thinking this, they hurried over.

Lu San, with his lame leg, hopped and skipped over.

“Big Ship Leader, Master Yu!”

The four approached to pay respects, and since the Fishing Guild held the most power in Xiantao Village, they first greeted the Big Ship Leader.

Yu Biao remained silent.

Zhao Xun said, “I won’t waste words with you. Today, we’re giving you a chance. Didn’t you say you wanted to join the fishery last time?”

The few of them nodded immediately.

Zhao Xun said, “Okay, then I have a task for you. Help us find Chen Jiusi or Su Yunjin. As long as you find either of them, you’ll earn merit, and we’ll make an exception to let you join the Fishing Guild. Lu San, you’ll have your chance too!”

Hearing this, Lu San’s eyes brightened.

“Thank you, Big Ship Leader, thank you, Big Ship Leader!”

Zhao Xun waved his hand.

“Alright, stop the nonsense!”

“Quickly think, with whom does Chen Jiusi usually associate, and where could he be hiding?”

Hearing this, Lu San and Chen Sanliu looked at each other, then Lu San cautiously asked, “Big Ship Leader, may I ask what crime Chen Jiusi committed to warrant this kind of gathering?”

The Big Ship Leader glared and said, “Is it something you can inquire about?”

“But it’s not too much to tell you. Remember, it’s a capital offense!”

Upon hearing this, Lu San was overjoyed and said, “Is it treason against the guild?!”

Zhao Xun’s lips twitched slightly, and Yu Biao looked at Zhao Xun strangely. Zhao Xun immediately got angry, “None of your damn business, lead the way.”

“Ah, well, the ones Chen Jiusi usually associates with are only a few families. The closest would likely be the Bai Family and Chen Erba’s family. I’d suggest searching the Bai Family first!”

*You son of a bitch!*

The Big Ship Leader cursed in his heart. *How could there be such fools in the world? The Bai Family is the home of the Fishery Manager. You’re searching people; can you search the Manager’s house? Truly, this person is talented!*

But what about this Chen Erba?

“What’s Chen Erba’s situation?”

Lu San then reacted and immediately said, “Chen Erba can be considered Chen Jiusi’s benefactor. In the beginning…”

“So the two families are close. By the way, that Chen Xiaohu is the son of Chen Erba.”

The Big Ship Leader, hearing this, immediately understood. How could he not know Chen Xiaohu?

They were inseparable with Chen Jiusi, their family was.

Thinking this, the Big Ship Leader said, “Brother Yu, search Chen Erba’s house. The relationship between Chen Erba and Chen Jiusi is very close. Let’s see if we can use them to force Chen Jiusi out!”

After hearing this, Yu Biao immediately said, “Let’s go!”

They quickly charged into Chen Erba’s house, but found it empty as well.

Zhao Xun was enraged, wearing a dark face.

He became even more certain that the person who ran away with Wu Zhong’s life was Chen Jiusi.

Yu Biao looked around, unable to find anyone. Seeing that it was almost dawn, he knew he couldn’t act so recklessly once daylight arrived, as the Fishing Guild would likely also gather its people.

Thinking about it, Yu Biao, feeling extremely unwilling, said, “Let’s go.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xun wanted to resist a little more, but Yu Biao no longer wanted to play along, taking his men and leaving directly.

The group quickly left Chen Erba’s house.

Zhao Xun looked around unwillingly and sighed in his heart, *It’s over, completely over.*

He was preparing to flee, he must flee now.

Once the sun rose and the Fishing Guild gathered, his identity was likely to be exposed, and then he’d be finished.

Zhao Xun prepared to leave.

At this point, Lu San and Chen Sanliu gathered around.

“Big Ship Leader, about our entry into the fishery?”

Zhao Xun looked at the two, thinking, *Idiots, I can barely protect my own position; who would dare care about you?*

But he still said, “Wait for more news.”

Hearing this, Lu San smiled again, “Big Ship Leader, Chen Jiusi definitely won’t be coming back?”

Impatiently, Zhao Xun looked at him and said, “Hmm!”

Hearing this, Lu San grinned and said, “Big Ship Leader, then his family’s stuff?”

Zhao Xun bluntly said, “Do what you think is best, don’t bother me!”

“Okay, alright!”

Lu San was beaming with joy. In this world, how could there be such good fortune? Just now, he saw bags of sorghum rice, preserved salted meat, and shiny white lard in Chen Jie’s house. These things might not interest the Big Ship Leader, but to Lu San, they were treasures!

Since Chen Jiusi won’t be coming back, then those things are all mine.

Moreover, his house now belongs to me, hahaha…

Chen Sanliu was even more ruthless, looking at Chen Erba’s house and thinking, *This fool Chen Erba was so closely bound with Chen Jiusi.*

Now that Chen Jiusi was in trouble, he was finished too. The valuable things in this house all belonged to me.

Thinking about it, he looked at Lu San, and both were dreaming of riches.

*Isn’t this a windfall falling from the sky?*

They were just sleeping at home, and after waking up, Chen Jiusi’s house was ruined, allowing them to gain wealth out of thin air and even join the fishery. It was simply a dream come true.

Thinking about this, the two couldn’t help but hum a little tune, truly brimming with joy.

The two were also action-oriented. Once it was confirmed that Chen Jiusi wasn’t coming back, they turned into busy bees, starting to move things and seize the Chen family’s property.

At this time, Lu San and Chen Sanliu gathered together.

Lu San said, “Uncle San Liu, Chen Jiusi’s downfall is our gain. In the future, as we join the Fishing Guild together, let’s put our past grudges to rest. I won’t pursue the matter of you beating me.”

Chen Sanliu also said, “Brother Lu San is right, let bygones be bygones. In the future, our two families should work together in the fishery and help each other. As for the two maces of silver you owe me, let’s forget it.”

“Alright, straightforward.”

The two happily reached an agreement, then began moving things while dreaming of joining the fishery.

Yu Biao left, taking his men back to the mountains to retrieve Yu Sanliu’s body, crying during the pickup, which is another story.

Zhao Xun immediately rushed to the fishery, heading to the warehouse. This warehouse stored the past month’s collected fish-tax money.

In small towns like this, fish-tax money wasn’t collected regularly; typically, it accumulated over a month before being handed over altogether.

Zhao Xun was planning to escape, so he intended to take the money and run.

He and Wu Zhong both had keys to the warehouse, so he entered easily. The fishing guild staff guarding the place were momentarily stunned upon seeing Zhao Xun but quickly greeted him, “Big Ship Leader!”

Zhao Xun said, “Go to the stables and hitch a carriage for me, take that red-maned horse, and load this money onto it. I’m going to deliver the tax money to the city.”

“Ah, Big Ship Leader, isn’t today a bit off schedule?”

Zhao Xun replied, “A major competition is happening soon, with lots of people and eyes around; it’s not safe with all this money. I’m sending it early.”

“Ah, yes, understood. By the way, Big Ship Leader, who’s escorting the carriage this time?”

The staff asked.

Zhao Xun said, “No need for an escort; I can manage alone. Everyone’s worn out, get yourselves some rest!”

“Eh, no escort?”

The staff exchanged glances!
