Chapter 1575: Chapter 1575: What Are the Demands?

"Miss, we haven’t had a full meal in twenty days," another man spoke up.

Lin Caisang: "..."

Not having a full meal in twenty days—what kind of concept was that?

Could it be that these two men in front of her wouldn’t starve to death?

Twenty days!

How had they survived? It was simply a miracle!

However, it was only after quite some time that she came to realize what they meant—they hadn’t had a full meal in twenty days.

That meant they must have managed to eat something from time to time, right?

"You... Brother Molian."

She looked towards Sui Zimo.

Sui Zimo understood and quickly brought over some fruits from another place and placed them on the table.

"Thank you."

The two men looked at the fruits and swallowed hard.

"My name is Yun Ceng, and his name is Yun Bai. We are from Yun City."

As Yun Ceng ate the fruits, he started speaking to Lin Caisang and Sui Zimo.

"Our Yun City was quite prosperous, but twenty days ago, our city was hit by thieves. The grains from every household were totally stolen, not a single grain was left for us."

Yun Bai added.

"Then what happened?" Lin Caisang asked.

This thief was truly extraordinary, to be able to steal all the grains from every household in a city.

And it was done within a single day.

It must have been done at night, surely it was impossible during the day.

"Then, we couldn’t bother catching the thief first, we just went to other cities and bought some grains. Who knew, after only one meal, those grains disappeared without a trace again."

When Yun Bai spoke about this, Lin Caisang and her companion could detect the anger in his voice.

"It’s been twenty days, and every time we buy back grains, they get stolen. The people in the city are so hungry that their backs stick to their chests. We really had no other option. We heard that the people of Wuzhu Teahouse are very capable, so we thought we’d come here and try our luck."

Lin Caisang: "..."

This thief was truly infuriating to the extreme.

If it were her home being stolen from day after day, and to the point where not a single grain was left, she would definitely die of anger.

However, the thief had to be quite capable, to be able to steal grains right under so many people’s watch.

It had been twenty days, and presumably, the people of Yun City had not neglected taking preventative measures, right? But they were of no use against that thief; no matter how much they guarded, they were still robbed.

"What is it that you’re asking for?" Zimo inquired.

"Our request is to find that thief so that we can give him a good thrashing!" Yun Ceng said immediately.

These days, he’d even dreamed of finding that thief and beating him until he couldn’t recognize his own parents.

He was just too angry; he had never seen such a despicable thief!

Lin Caisang: "!!!"

The man before her was really...

How should she put it? If this matter had fallen on her head, she definitely wouldn’t stop at just beating him once.

"Miss, young master, don’t listen to Yun Ceng’s nonsense. On behalf of all the citizens of Yun City, I ask that you help us find the thief who stole our grains, and send him to where he belongs," said Yun Bai after eating some food and finally having enough energy to raise his hand and smack Yun Ceng on the back of his head.

"And moreover, miss, young master, I’d also like to remind you, that thief is definitely not an ordinary person, because he only steals grains and not a single bit of gold or silver," he added.
