Chapter 1584: Chapter 1584: The Two Carps that were Swallowed Whole!

"Master, we didn’t see anyone’s trace, but... we smelled a human odor, different from those guards, a very stinky scent." Hongjin glanced at the guards who had collapsed and reported back to his master.

"A stinky scent?"

Lin Caisang furrowed her brows, Are the little ones certain what they smelled... was the scent of a human?

Why should the scent of a human be so foul-smelling?

Could it be that she was ignorant, and that there actually were such foul-smelling people in the world?

Or could it be that the little ones’ sense of smell had made some mistake?

"Why... would a human smell so foul, Brother Molian?" Unable to figure it out after pondering, she could only look up and seek help from her Brother Molian.

Of course, Sui Zimo was also at a loss to understand what Hongjin meant, at least for the moment.

"Perhaps, they fell into a sewer, or maybe... it’s a beggar who has never bathed in his life?" He offered his own opinion.

Lin Caisang: "..."

Brother Molian, could your guess be any more... bizarre?

A beggar might be understandable, but falling into a sewer...

They had already thoroughly searched the area around this warehouse, where was there a sewer to fall into?

"You two can go back,"

she said to Hongjin and Yinbai.

"Yes, Master."

Hongjin and Yinbai responded in unison, turned into two beams of light, and returned to the fish tank.

"Ah—mmph!"

Yun Bai was truly startled beyond clarity.

He eyed the fish tank, which just a moment ago had been empty except for a pool of water, and now there were two carp swimming in it; he couldn’t help but swallow hard.

So the people who had saved their food supplies turned out to be the same carp that he had thought would be devoured by the canine cat! This was truly...

He didn’t know what to say anymore.

"Miss, Young Master, you all..."

"City Lord Yun, may I be so bold as to ask if you have offended anyone recently?" Lin Caisang interrupted Yun Bai and turned to City Lord Yun.

City Lord Yun: "..."

In the entire Yun City, who didn’t know that he was the most amiable and benevolent lord of all generations?

How could he possibly have offended someone? The people of Yun City respected and loved him; how could they possibly hate him? That was utterly impossible.

But now, he dared not voice that easily.

"This... I really have no idea; I should think that I haven’t offended anyone."

He spoke to Lin Caisang with hesitation in his tone.

His kindness was genuine, but sometimes being too kind could also offend people, and he was aware of this.

"Miss, do you mean to say that the person who stole the food has a grudge against me?"

Suddenly, he realized the implication in Lin Caisang’s words.

Right!

A light dawned on him, and he chided himself inwardly for not having thought of it earlier.

The person who had stolen the food, ignoring all the gold and silver, had taken all the food, clearly indicating that they bore a grudge against him!

Furthermore, the person had deliberately left the gold and silver untouched, glaringly telling him, the city lord, that they had stolen the food for the sake of revenge, to appease the hatred in their heart.

"But I truly cannot think of anyone I have offended."

After much thought, he could not recall offending anyone. Could it be simply because he was too good to the people of Yun City?

"If you can’t remember, don’t strain yourself; the opportunity to find out who stole the food will always arise."

Lin Caisang didn’t press City Lord Yun and said.
