Chapter 194 Field Investigation

Chapter 194 Field Investigation
Kaia's words made Ruo Jin suddenly enlightened. If this was true, then everything made sense. He looked at Zhang San with pity. Tsk, he took Lawrence's ancestor's things and sold them to Eula. Fortunately, Eula was an excellent knight who could restrain herself. If it was someone else, Zhang San would be lucky not to be beaten to death.

Through Zhang San's oral narration, Kaiya and Ruojin recounted the incident from beginning to end and restored the course of events. In order to allow Zhang San to supplement what they had missed at any time, Ruojin and Kaiya deliberately recorded the whole incident while telling it out loud.

Listening to Ruojin and Kaeya's complete account of the whole incident, Hu Tao, who was listening to the story quietly, had a deep look in her eyes. She used to think that the plots in various light novels were outrageous enough, but now, she feels that sometimes reality is more dramatic than the light novels she bought from the newly opened novel store called Yaedo in Liyue Harbor.

There are so many people in Mondstadt, but Zhang San just happened to be able to do business with Eula, the only person in Mondstadt with the surname Lawrence. It has to be said that Zhang San's vision is really sharp and his luck is really bad.

"Kurumi, go out and tell Eula about this first."

Not realizing that the torture instruments on the table were fake, Ruojin wanted to find an excuse to send Hutao out. Hutao didn't think too much about it, but when she heard what Ruojin said, the desire to share this matter with others was instantly ignited.

After looking at Zhang San with pity, Hu Tao left the interrogation room directly. She couldn't wait to share the whole process of the incident with Amber and Eula. She felt that Amber and Eula would never be able to imagine such an outrageous story.

In the interrogation room, after Ruo Jin and Kaeya finished recording everything Zhang San said, they were in trouble again. In Mondstadt, there were currently no laws on how to deal with tomb robbers, and the laws of Liyue did not apply to Mondstadt. So how to deal with Zhang San became a problem.

"Forget it, let Captain Qin worry about this matter."

Not knowing how to deal with this matter, Kaeya, who was well versed in Mondstadt's laws, thought about the solution for a while and decided to throw this problem directly to Jean who was still working overtime.

"Thank you for your help today, Lord Ruojin. Let's go to Angel's Gift for a drink tonight?"

Kaeya stretched his body which had not rested all night, and extended an invitation to Ruojin with a smile. Although his original intention was to establish a good relationship with Ruojin and get a rock dragon lizard egg, Kaeya, who was well versed in all kinds of social etiquette and linguistic charm, deliberately said that he wanted to thank Ruojin.

When you want to invite someone for a drink, deliberately ask that person to do you a favor, and then invite him/her. Faced with this kind of invitation with a sense of gratitude, many people can only agree because they are embarrassed to refuse. Kaia has used this trick time and time again and it has always worked.

"Tonight? Forget about tonight. We can just drink together during the Brew Festival."

This time, Kaeya obviously miscalculated. He took all kinds of factors into consideration but overlooked Ruojin's doting on Hutao. Thinking about the agreement that he would accompany Hutao to visit the night market in Mondstadt in the evening, Ruojin directly rejected Kaeya's invitation.

Although Kaiya was a little surprised by Ruojin's refusal, he nodded obediently. Before leaving the interrogation room, Ruojin glanced at Zhang San who was sitting on the chair. He patted Zhang San's shoulder gently and said with some complicated words.

"Hey, Zhang San, if you can get out, you'd better find a fortune teller to help you change your luck when you return to Liyue. As far as I remember, this is not the first time you have had bad luck."

After saying that, Ruo Jin and Kaiya left the interrogation room together. Zhang San, who was left alone in the interrogation room, fell into deep thought. He wondered since when did he become so unlucky?

Outside the interrogation room, Walnut had told Eula and Amber the whole story. After listening to Walnut's story, Eula and Amber fell into silence, especially Eula. She didn't know whether to say that her luck was good or bad.

There was silence for a while, until Ruojin and Kaia walked out of the interrogation room. Then Eula let out a long breath as if she had made up her mind, and looked at Kurumi with a determined look.

"Hu Tao, I remember your Wangshengtang is in the funeral business, right?"

"Yes, Eula, are you going to sell our Wangsheng Hall set meal?" Hearing Eula suddenly mention Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao took out the flyers that she had not distributed in the morning from her pocket and gave one to each of the people present. Eula did not look at the flyer that Hu Tao stuffed into her hand, but spoke seriously.

"Hutao, I hope you can help me move the ancestral tombs of our Lawrence family to the Lawrence clan land. I don't want my ancestors to be disturbed by tomb robbers anymore."

"Moving the grave? Hiss~ I have never done such a thing before. If you don't mind, Eula, can you take me to see your family's ancestral grave first? I may need to conduct an on-site inspection."

Although Hu Tao had been the head of the Wangsheng Hall for several years, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing as relocating graves. Hu Tao, who had no experience in this area, only vaguely remembered that when she was a child, her grandfather told her that when relocating a grave, the size and specifications of the grave should be considered, and there are different methods for relocating different graves.

So, in order to be more rigorous, Hu Tao thought it would be better to go and see it with her own eyes. After confirming the size and specifications of the tomb, she wrote a letter asking Zhongli to bring the ancient books in the Hall of Rebirth to Mondstadt to find her. Otherwise, if something went wrong, Hu Tao didn't want to see a lot of jokes arise instead of the name of the Mondstadt branch of the Hall of Rebirth being made famous.

"Field trip... Yes, of course."

Eula hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. Since the tomb robber named Zhang San had already revealed the location of the ancestral tomb of their Lawrence family, it was not impossible for her to take Hu Tao to take a look. Professional matters should be left to professionals. No matter how young Hu Tao looked, she was always better than her, who knew nothing.

"Yeah, it's a big adventure!"

"Kelly? Why are you here?"

She didn't know when Klee had come to her side. Eula, who was not very familiar with Klee but had heard various rumors about her, was stunned to see Klee's happy look. She didn't say that she would take Klee to the ancestral tomb of their Lawrence family.

Recalling the various rumors about Klee, Eula's heart, which had been relieved, was lifted up again. Although she was confident in her own strength, what if for some reason she noticed Klee and asked Klee to blow up the ancestral tomb of their Lawrence family? Then wouldn't she definitely become the person who destroyed her ancestors?

"Sister Eula, can't Klee go? Please, please, let Klee go with you~"

Klee was already very cute and likable, and now she was using her killer cuteness skills. Eula felt as if her head didn't belong to her at that moment, and she nodded and agreed in a daze.

"Great! Sister Eula is a good person!"

Klee hugged Eula's legs and cheered. Eula, who had come to her senses, looked at the cute little guy beside her and sighed helplessly. It was really unfair that he was so cute and so good at acting cute.

"Hehe, it seems like you, Eula, can't resist Klee's cuteness either."

Amber chuckled with a hint of mockery in her eyes. Realizing that her best friend had seen the entire scene, Eula blushed and glared at Amber fiercely.

"I will bear this grudge!"
