Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

"Brother, isn't it strange? Why did Qin Shenyi pretend to be pushed to the ground by the police?"

Pei Wanru came over and lay on the passenger seat, asking Pei Yu in confusion.

Pei Yu: "Maybe he's afraid that the police will cause trouble for that little girl."

Pei Wanru shook her head: "I don't think so."

Pei Yu glanced sideways and saw Pei Wanru staring at him, not moving her eyes away for a long time.

"Brother, he doesn't want to be your subordinate, does he?!"

Pei Yu: "..."

In this era, the concept of love between men and women is still vague. For a girl of Pei Wanru's age, it is difficult for her to think of anything else no matter how unconventional her thinking is.

Pei Yu smiled but said nothing at Pei Wanru's guess.

On the other hand, Pei Wanru felt that her analysis was very reasonable.

Those who can perform on a stage like Lijiayuan have all had outstanding figures and good looks.

Qin Shenyi looked thin, and every move he made under his costume with water sleeves seemed so lithe as if he had no bones. It seemed that he was a man who could not lift anything with his shoulders or hands. After analyzing the situation, Pei Wanru overturned her own idea.

Pei Yu sent Pei Wanru back to the Pei family's old house and then returned to the headquarters, and immediately called Adjutant Bai who was under his original command.

This Adjutant Bai was rescued from a beggar when the original body was a teenager.

When the original body saw him, he was lying on the ground half dead, gasping for breath, and his chest was making a whirring sound like a broken jar.

The original owner ordered his servants to drive away the beggars and send him to the hospital for treatment.

After that, this Adjutant Bai became the original body's most capable subordinate.

After the original owner returned from studying abroad, he promoted him to be his adjutant.

After Pei Yu came to this world, he conducted a thorough investigation on Adjutant Bai. Only after he was sure that there was no problem with Adjutant Bai did he start to assign his tasks to him.

Adjutant Bai was a taciturn person. He would do whatever the original body asked him to do and never asked any questions.

After Pei Yu told Adjutant Bai what he wanted him to do, Adjutant Bai's expression showed a slight crack, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak for a long time.

Pei Yu: "What else?"

"..."

Adjutant Bai: "Chief of Staff, is the commander giving you a hard time? Why are you investigating this kind of thing?"

Pei Yu asked Adjutant Bai to check where the little girl in Lijiayuan often went to buy snacks such as candy.

In Adjutant Bai's eyes, this inexplicable incident became a clue that Pei Yu might be demoted.

Pei Yu said: "Just check and you will know."

Although Adjutant Bai didn't understand why, he still did what Pei Yu said.

The next morning, Adjutant Bai told Pei Yu the clues he had found.

After leaving Lijiayuan yesterday, the little girl met her neighbor’s sister who was four years older than her, and then separated from her parents.

Afterwards, the little girl went to candy stores on three streets to buy candy. After failing to buy any candy in the first two stores, she went to the last candy store, where she was asked for compensation for hitting another child.

Finally the little girl was taken home by her parents.

Adjutant Bai said: "These three candy stores are the only ones in Jiangcheng that can make the candy that the child wants to buy, but..."

He always felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know where to start.

"The situation has been unstable recently. An officer from Country R died in a teahouse again. The brothers in the headquarters have to keep up with the patrol efforts." Pei Yu said suddenly.

Adjutant Bai was stunned for a moment, then blurted out subconsciously: "Yes, Chief of Staff. But this will make the people of Jiangcheng live in fear again, and stay indoors..."

His voice stopped abruptly, and he realized something was wrong: "An enemy officer died just yesterday, and after leaving Lijiayuan, the parents of that little girl let their daughter go to such a far store to buy candy?"

Pei Yu smiled and said, "Go down."

"yes."

After Adjutant Bai left, Pei Yu leaned back in his chair, stroking the pen with his fingertips.

The system floated beside Pei Yu, confused by the piles of words […What are these?]

Pei Yu [It’s useless. He said a lot of words, but it only means one thing: he wants money.]

Those people from the Pei family always stink of money.

Mr. Pei has a lot of wives and concubines, and a lot of children, but few of them are capable.

Now that Pei Yu is in power in the headquarters, those old and young ones are naturally unhappy. No matter what, they will get as much as they can from Pei Yu.

The system was shocked [You are quite bold.]

Pei Yu threw the mess aside and dealt with military affairs.

When the sun was setting, he looked out the window.

The afterglow of the setting sun in the distance was as brilliant as golden light, shrouding the entire Jiangcheng in a dreamlike illusion.

Lijiayuan's house was crowded with people. A servant came out and put away a pot of beautifully blooming peonies, and then picked up the pot of lilac that was a little short of water.

"That car looks familiar..."

Some people passing by the door stared at the old car parked outside Lijiayuan and muttered thoughtfully.

Another person asked in surprise: "Isn't that Mr. Pei Qi's car?"

"What?"

The car door was pushed open and a man in military uniform stepped out.

Following behind him were two armed soldiers wearing the headquarters uniforms.

After Pei Yu walked into Lijiayuan, the manager who had been waiting for a long time immediately came over and took Pei Yu to the arranged seat.

Cui Jiangping had already arrived at the position directly opposite the stage before Pei Yu.

As soon as Pei Yu sat down, Cui Jiangping pushed a cup of tea towards him.

"You really have a new hobby now. You actually come to listen to opera." Cui Jiangping shook his head and said.

Pei Yu said: "Mr. Qin's song is better than anyone else's."

Cui Jiangping was stunned.

"Is that what he said?"

Inside the room, Qin Shenyi sat in front of the bronze mirror and spoke.

The steward nodded.

Qin Shenyi raised his hand and rubbed the small box on the table with his fingertips.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Qin Shenyi's lips.

Qin Shenyi paused and said, "This Master Pei Qi is really good at talking."

"That's really nice to hear." Qin Shenyi smiled and lowered his eyes.

If someone else received such praise from Pei Yu, they would be extremely happy.

The manager felt that Qin Shenyi seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Now that Master Pei Qi is here, why don't we put our plans on hold?"

Qin Shenyi looked at the bronze mirror and said, "No need. Since Master Pei Qi is here, I will definitely sing for him."

In the bronze mirror, Qin Shenyi's eyebrows and eyes were a little blurry.

But the emotion therein was clearly full of interest.
