No, the warehouse is occupied by refugees now. Well find each other if we go to the right place. The man in the middle said, shaking his head.

Okay, Ill believe you this time, but youd better not lie to me. Otherwise, dont blame me for making things difficult for you. After Gu Chengrui was done, he asked for the names and characteristics of the other three people before he bandaged his wound and walked out.

He also asked the guards to prepare some food for them.

The next morning, Gu Chengrui found Qian Zhuang and Gu Erjiang and asked them to find a few more people to keep an eye on the three people as described. If those three arrive, they must keep a close eye on them.

In the afternoon, the new constable, Zhang Daren, brought a few bailiffs and rushed to the clinic.

Gu Chengrui saw them coming in and immediately came up to them. Welcome, Constable Zhang. Im sorry for not coming out to welcome you,

Doctor Gu, youre too polite. Were here on Lord Bais orders to bring those people back.

..

I see. Would you all like a cup of tea in the backyard?

No need. Lets get to business, as we must rush back tonight.

Alright, lets talk while we walk. Gu Chengrui led them to the manor after he finished speaking.

On the way, he told Constable Zhang the confessions of the three men.

He also told him about the three other people who were part of them, inciting the refugees to come here.

There are three more people? Constable Zhangs head hurt when he heard this. If they wanted to capture those other three, they wouldnt be able to return today.

Gu Chengrui saw him in a difficult spot and said, Brother Zhang, if you have an emergency, you can bring these men back directly. 111 catch them tonight and send them over.

If youre not busy, you can rest in the manor for the night. Its not too late to set off tomorrow morning.

Constable Zhang hesitated for a moment, then looked at the others and said, Brothers, what do you think?

Sir, lets stay for one night. Weve been running for days with our sore feet. Someone immediately said.

Thats right. We just have to get back before tomorrow ends. 1 really cant walk anymore today.

Alright, well go back tomorrow. Constable Zhang hesitated for a moment and finally agreed.

Lovely, Ill make the arrangements for tonight. Everyone, do have a good sleep before setting off tomorrow morning. Gu Chengrui smiled and nodded.

Since they werent in a hurry to return, Gu Chengrui wasnt in a hurry to bring them to the manor either. Hence, he brought them to the Gra.s.sland Taste Restaurant.

After arranging for everyone to go to a private room upstairs, he said, Have some tea and take a break. 111 arrange for your meals.

By the way, is there anything you guys dont eat?

No, but its quite hot today. We would like to have something refres.h.i.+ng. Constable Zhang said.

Alright, please wait a moment. 111 be right back. After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he turned around and went to the kitchen.

So, are we eating here tonight or going to the manor? Zhou Ying asked after receiving the news.

The manor. 1 wont need to go back and forth that way, but 1 wont be able to come back tonight. Gu Chengrui said.

Alright, just take care of yourself. Its not peaceful now, so dont drink too much.

I know. 111 go up first. Gu Chengrui nodded, took two dessert plates and snacks, and went upstairs.

Zhou Ying began to prepare the dishes. Since they requested something light and refres.h.i.+ng, Zhou Ying served nine braised lamb feet, a plate of honey-flavored kidney beans, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of pigs skin jelly.

Afterwards, she told Li Sheng to stir-fry a plate of black-peppered beef, twice-cooked pork, and a plate of prawns while she prepared cold mixed white sweet potato vines, lettuce, cuc.u.mber, and some bean paste mixed together.

She also personally roasted five lamb legs and prepared a bowl of sour plum soup..
