Chapter 751: Chapter 751: The Ancestor Goes to the Jiang Family

Master Sun said, "I was wondering why you didn’t reply to my messages. Why did you go to the police station?"

Xia Xin felt embarrassed to share someone else’s case with Master Sun, so he vaguely responded, "It was just a minor issue, it’s all resolved now."

Although Master Sun was a chatterbox, he was also a discerning person.

Hearing that Xia Xin didn’t want to elaborate, he just uttered an "Oh," chuckled, and did not ask further, instead started talking about the Jiang Family’s matters.

Listening to him, Xia Xin’s thoughts drifted to Fan Ran’s situation.

Master Sun did not mention the police station, but once he did, Xia Xin remembered some peculiar details.

He couldn’t help but look at Jiangli.

Catching his hesitant glance from the corner of his eye, Jiangli opened the window and let in some air, "Ask whatever you want."

Upon hearing this, Xia Xin touched his nose and said, "I was just wondering... Ancestor, how did Captain Song know about the Unusual Affairs Management Office?"

When he spoke the latter half of the sentence, he lowered his voice, not wanting Boss Zhao and Master Sun to hear.

After all, the Unusual Affairs Management Office was not a public organization, and theoretically, only insiders would know about it.

Yet, Song Taishan suddenly mentioned it, and that forensic doctor even came from the Unusual Affairs Management Office.

Xia Xin was puzzled then, but didn’t have the chance to ask.

Jiangli’s hair fluttered in the wind, his expression somewhat hazy, "I’m not familiar with the Unusual Affairs Management Office, you should ask Xun Tianhai about this."

Xia Xin: "..."

That seemed about right.

Xia Xin temporarily set aside this matter, but there was another doubt in his mind.

Xia Xin looked at Jiangli, pursed the corners of his lips, hesitated for a moment, but still asked, "Ancestor, back at the school, did you... deliberately send me away?"

Back then, Jiangli had told him to find a high place to observe any abnormalities.

At first, Xia Xin thought it was a reasonable suggestion.

From a high place, it was indeed easier to notice changes in the Yin Energy.

But...

Was it necessary for Jiangli to do that?

Obviously not.

If it were just to teach Xia Xin, then Jiangli should have accompanied him, instead of acting alone.

Once Xia Xin observed a surge in Yin Energy in the grove, he hurried over there.

But he was a step too late.

Jiangli had arrived earlier.

That proved that Jiangli was fully capable of finding Zhou Yan and Fan Ran’s whereabouts even earlier.

So why did he send him away?

Xia Xin felt something was off.

But he never had the chance to ask.

Upon hearing the question, Jiangli glanced out the window.

Seeing something, she suddenly said, "Stop the car."

Master Sun instinctively stepped on the gas, then pulled over for an emergency stop.

Luckily, it was work hours, and there were not many people on the road, so the car stopped smoothly.

Master Sun was just about to ask what the matter was, why the sudden call to stop.

But when he turned his head, Jiangli had already pushed open the car door and ran out.

Master Sun looked at Xia Xin, seeking an explanation.

Xia Xin was confused; he had no idea what was going on.

All he did was ask a question...

If the Ancestor was unhappy, she wouldn’t just leave him in the lurch, would she?

Not understanding the reason, Xia Xin quickly opened the car door and chased after her.

But after running a few steps, he was stunned to find that the direction Jiangli had run to was... a fried chicken restaurant.

The corner of Xia Xin’s mouth twitched.

He couldn’t help but facepalm.

Shaking his head with a laugh, he took out his phone and followed her in.

Master Sun and Boss Zhao, oblivious to what had transpired, opened the car door with confused faces and stepped out, waiting by the car for a while.

A dozen minutes later, they saw Jiangli return, holding a large box of fried chicken and barbecued meat, along with a large cup of milk tea loaded with toppings.

After Xia Xin went over to pay, he also returned.

Seeing this scene, Master Sun and Boss Zhao exchanged a look, both feeling somewhat conflicted.
