Chapter 473: Not sure, let’s see
Qian Duoduo did not return to his own yard, but went to Chu Yan.
She saw clearly just now that Chu Yan's face looked a little bad after seeing the young man, and then he wanted to take the young man away. There must be something going on, so she wanted to come over and ask him, and make sure he was not a vicious person.
"Qian Yi is back?"
Chu Yan said without surprise.
Qian Duoduo saw that Chu Yan's complexion was much better now, but he could still tell that he was a little absent-minded.
“Well, it seems that the young man knows my eldest brother, but I don’t know what kind of relationship the two have.
The eldest brother didn’t seem to remember the boy, but Xiaoqi did, and it seemed that they knew each other a long time ago.
But I don't know what drove him to be so bold as to come to this villa to blackmail?
Is it really as people often say, that we are fearless because we are ignorant?" Qian Duoduo smiled bitterly.
Perhaps this young man just heard some rumors about the villa or the eldest brother, and thought he could succeed easily.
Or maybe he didn't understand his elder brother's background and methods at all, and acted rashly based on momentary impulse.
However, no matter how you look at it, this behavior is too risky.
After all, this villa is not a place where anyone can come and go as they please!
However, Qian Duoduo felt that the appearance of this character was a bit far-fetched, and she would need to ask Murong Yun about it after he came back.
The key is that it is really too outrageous!
Which robbers are so bold as to break into the villa to rob and extort money?
You know, this is just like those lawless bandits rushing into a bank to rob!
I really don’t know what the bandit leader was thinking. Are they really so stupid and brave?
Or is there some unknown conspiracy or plan behind it?
Or are they just a group of simple-minded, strong-limbed reckless men who have not considered the serious consequences of their actions?
In short, this matter is simply unbelievable and completely beyond the imagination of normal people.
However, Qian Duoduo was more suspicious of the appearance of this person. It might be the person that the main system asked her to find and assist.
Not sure, just wait and see.
"Yes. I just sent someone to check. They are bandits from a nearby hilltop."
"Bandits? Really bandits? Then why didn't the government intervene? This isn't right, is it?"
Qian Duoduo originally wanted to ask Chu Yan if he knew the bandit, but he had just sent someone to investigate, so he probably didn't know the young man. However, judging from his expression, it didn't seem like he didn't know him at all.
“Well, although this group of people are called bandits, they cannot actually be considered bandits in the pure sense.
The targets they usually chose were simply the caravans passing through on their way out of the capital.
Moreover, the amount of things obtained in each robbery was not large, which often made the victims feel that it was not worthwhile to report the matter to the government.
After all, once you start filing a complaint, it will not only take up a lot of time and energy, but you may also face many troubles and risks.
Therefore, most of the merchants who have been robbed by this group of "bandits" finally decided to swallow their anger and consider themselves unlucky after weighing the pros and cons.
However, some people did go to the government to report the case, but the results were often not satisfactory.
Either the lost items were of low value or few in number, so the government considered them insignificant and was unwilling to spend energy to deal with them;
Or they would just randomly send a few insignificant yamen runners to deal with the matter. These people were completely indifferent to the case and would leave hastily after doing their job perfunctorily.
By the way, the hill where the bandits were entrenched was actually not far from the villa where we were. However, what was surprising was that the villagers here had never been harassed by these bandits.
It turned out that the bandits' lair was hidden deep in a valley. The terrain was extremely dangerous and the road into the mountain was rugged and difficult. It was not easy to enter their lair smoothly.
It is precisely because of the combination of the above factors that this bandit force has been able to exist for a long time and remain at large.”
In fact, Chu Yan found out more information and knew that to be honest, their place could not be called a bandit den at all. The people there only went down the mountain to "rob" when they had no money or food.
Normally, it is just like an ordinary village, or rather, a somewhat poor "paradise" village.
"What did you just check?" Qian Duoduo didn't expect that Chu Yan had found out so much in such a short time.
"Ah."
Qian Duoduo could see that although Chu Xian was still chatting with her, Chu Yan's face did not look very good.
Chu Yan had previously found out that his brother had become a beggar in the capital, but later on the clues were cut off. However, seeing this young man...
He still needs to confirm it.
Qian Duoduo saw that Chu Yan's face was not very good. After answering her, he seemed to be lost in thought. She didn't know what this young man made him think of.
The room suddenly became quiet.
An Ba looked at his master who had left Miss Yang out like this and gave a light cough as a reminder.
"Sorry, I just thought of something."
"Is it related to that boy? In other words?"
"Oh, I don't mean to pry into your privacy. I think that boy must know Big Brother. Didn't you want to take that boy away just now? I don't think it would be easy."
Chu Yan obviously thought of this as well.
"It's okay, I just want to confirm some things. I won't take him away, I just want to ask some questions. If it's not convenient, you can trouble Qian Yi later."
"Is that so?" Qian Duoduo looked at Chu Yan's face, which had recovered.
"Okay, let's see if we can get something out of Big Brother then."
"I'm sorry, it's not convenient for me to tell you now. Because I'm not sure myself. I'll tell you when I'm sure."
After saying this, Chu Yan fell into deep thought again.
Qian Duoduo had never seen Chu Yan like this before. He looked up at An Ba with a questioning look.
"Are you okay?"
An Ba smiled sheepishly and shook his head slightly.
"Well, you take a rest first. Rest at the villa today. I'll come find you later when I'm done there."
After saying that, he looked at Chu Yan deeply and left.
At this time, Chu Yan's eyes were dull, staring straight out the window, his gaze looking into the distance. He did not hear Qian Duoduo's words, and his thoughts had no idea where they had gone.
His mind is in a mess now. He doesn't know if this time will be like the usual and end up in vain.
But he knew he could give up any possible opportunity...
