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

Chapter 345: Chapter 140 Huang Wan’er: Mr. Chen, do you want to play something exciting?_6

Sun Bu’er’s eldest son was stunned, immediately got up and chased, ”Who dares to attack the Manager of Guild Cao?”

The rest of the people followed in pursuit.

Very soon, people began to fall behind, and after a while, Sun Bu’er’s eldest son caught up with Chen Jie in an alley.

”Who are you?”

Chen Jie took off his bamboo hat and clasped his fists, ”Brother Sun.”

The man was taken aback, squinted and said, ”Chen Jiusi, what, what are you doing?”

He recognized Chen Jie, after all, this person had close ties with his brother-in-law and had been quite noted recently, but he didn’t know that something had happened to Chen Jie.

At this moment, Chen Jie said, ”Brother Sun, I need a favor from you.”

”Hmm, a favor from me?”

Chen Jie briefly explained the situation.

”What! You, you killed Peng Shizhong!”

Chen Jie looked at this Brother Sun and said, ”I was framed.”

Brother Sun said, ”That’s not what’s important; with Peng Shizhong dead, the balance in Mianshui County will change dramatically. You really stirred up the storm.”

Chen Jie said, ”I didn’t do it.”

Brother Sun said, ”Whether you did it or not, isn’t important to me. I’m a member of Guild Cao, and since the Hall Master of Fishing Guild died, I have no reason to help you catch the thief.”

Chen Jie said, ”That’s also why I want Brother Sun’s help.”

Brother Sun said, ”Why help you?”

Chen Jie said, ”If I fall, Zhou Chu will fall too. You’re his brother-in-law, you wouldn’t just watch your own brother-in-law suffer, would you.”

”That bastard sneaks off to Yihong House behind my sister’s back, why would I care about his life or death.”

Chen Jie said, ”But if something happens to him, your sister won’t be happy, right? Think about it.”

After a while, he said, ”What can I do to help you?”

Chen Jie said, ”Very simple, just deliver this note into the hands of Wu Hong at the government office.”

”Just deliver a note?”

”Just deliver a note.”

Brother Sun said, ”Alright.”

Chen Jie handed the note to Brother Sun, who glanced at it confused. What kind of ghost talisman is this?

”Oh, by the way, tell Wu Hong a message for me, deliver this note to my wife, she can read what’s on it.”

The note Chen Jie handed to Brother Sun read: rangwuhongbawozhunbeideyaosonghuixiantaochun (ask Wu Hong to send the medicine I prepared back to Xiantao Village).

It was written in Pinyin, something Chen Jie had taught Su Yunjin. Probably only she and Ruirui could understand it in this world.

After all, Chen Jie taught Su Yunrui so she could use it to teach Ruirui to recognize characters.

”Alright, I understand.”

Brother Sun nodded, and Chen Jie said, ”Thank you, Brother Sun, I owe you a favor.”

Brother Sun said, ”That’s great, if you, Chen Jiusi, ever rise again, it would be a big win for me.”

Chen Jie said, ”Rest assured, I, Chen Jiusi, have always distinguished between gratitude and grudges.”

Brother Sun clasped his fists and then said, ”Alright, I accept you as a friend. By the way, my name is Sun Ye.”

After speaking, Sun Ye turned and left. Chen Jie nodded gently and put on his bamboo hat.

He planned to return to Xiantao Village today.

”Mr. Sun, where’d that thief come from?”

At this moment, the rest of the disciples from Guild Cao came rushing over to ask, and Sun Ye said, ”Oh, I don’t know, they got away.”

The group of people left.

At this time, Chen Jie also picked up his luggage and headed straight to Xiantao Village.

He had been away for several months now, wondering how things were at home.

In the evening, at Xiantao Village, Wu Zhong returned home with a worried expression.

Bai looked concerned and said, ”Husband, what happened? Why are there so many Fishing Guild members guarding our door?”

Wu Zhong sat down with a troubled look on his face.

Doctor Bai also asked, ”What exactly happened?”

Wu Zhong said, ”Father, something big happened; Jiu Si has been put on a wanted list.”

”Jiu Si? What happened? Tell us quickly!”

Upon hearing Wu Zhong’s words, Bai Wenjing couldn’t sit still anymore. Chen Jiusi was his final disciple, one treated as a son.

And Bai Wenjing regarded him as a grandson.

A few days ago, Wu Zhong returned, saying Jiu Si had become successful, now in charge at White Tiger Hall. The old man was so happy he drank a pot of spirits and didn’t get drunk.

Though he didn’t say it, he couldn’t hide his joy.

But, just after a few days, how could he become wronged like this?

Bai was also anxious; her relationship with Jiu Si and his wife was excellent. With Jiu Si in trouble, she couldn’t help but ask, ”Husband, what exactly happened?”

Wu Zhong said, ”Sect Master Peng was killed, and Jiu Si is suspected as the murderer!”

”What, impossible! Jiu Si would never do such a thing!”

Upon hearing this, Doctor Bai immediately said, ”I know Jiu Si’s character; he wouldn’t do something lacking in virtue.”

Bai also said, ”Yes, Husband, could there be a mistake? Jiu Si couldn’t have!”

Wu Zhong said, ”I also know Jiu Si couldn’t, but now the Gang Leader personally ordered it. The entire Mianshui County is wanted for Jiu Si, and a Jianghu Kill Order has been issued. Anyone who kills Jiu Si will receive a reward of ten thousand taels, and those who provide information will get between fifty and five hundred taels. Jiu Si is now like a rat running across the street!”

”Ah!”

Upon hearing this, Bai exclaimed, and Bai Wenjing was also shocked, eyes wide open.

She immediately said, ”How could this happen, how could this happen!”

Bai sighed in pain, ”With Jiu Si in trouble, how will Yunjin girl survive! This girl has such a hard life, just starting to live well, and this happens. Husband, go to the city tomorrow, and find a way to bring Yunjin back. How can she be alone in the city now!”

Wu Zhong said, ”Yes, I’ll go to the city tomorrow.”

”I’ll go with you.”

At this moment, Doctor Bai said.

”Father, why are you going?”

Bai Wenjing said, ”With my old face, maybe I can save some face. I can go to the city to beg some people and see if we can find any chance for Jiu Si.”

”Father, didn’t you say you’d never enter the city and bow your head after that falling-out with the Inner Hall?”

”None of that matters now. How much is my old face worth? If I can beg out a path for Jiu Si, I’d be willing to kneel till I die there. Pack up, we’ll head to the city tomorrow.”

”Yes.”

Wu Zhong agreed, and Bai said, ”Wait, let me prepare some money; it might come in handy.”

Saying that, the family busied themselves, and just then, a shadow suddenly flew into the courtyard.

The Bai Family was taken aback, looking over cautiously. Then they saw a person in coarse cloth, wearing a bamboo hat, standing in the shadows.

Wu Zhong took a step forward to shield Doctor Bai and Bai and said, ”Who are you to come to my place at this night?”

At this moment, the bamboo hat lifted, revealing a familiar face.

”Uncle Zhong!”

Chen Jie looked at the family before him with a face full of smiles.

”Jiu...Si!”
