Princess Agent: The Sweet Country Girl's Way to Glory - Chapter 687
Chapter 687 Trap
Not long after that person left, Su Wanwan started to move. She found some combustibles and threw them into the fire. The room lit up. Seeing that the ground was covered with chicken feathers, Su Wanwan frowned.
“Someone, take this thing to deal with.” Beichuan Fengliu suddenly said.
I didn’t expect that Eldest Brother would wake up as well! Su Wanwan said, “Senior Brother, guess what they’re doing.”
“I don’t know.” Beichuan Fengliu frowned and said calmly, “This thing stinks very much. It’s comfortable to throw it away.”
It was dawn and everyone woke up. The guards raised their water to wash their hands. Before they could find anyone, a group of villagers suddenly walked over with a fierce expression on their faces.
When she saw him, Su Wanwan said, “Uncles, what are you doing?”
“You stole my chicken, you still have the nerve to ask!” One of them said angrily.
“…”
Su Wanwan was speechless. Yesterday, the group of them had eaten dry rations and did not catch the chickens of the villagers. However … someone threw the chicken feathers in.
Su Wanwan said, “Everyone, what do you mean? If you want to frame me, you have to have evidence.”
“I smelled chicken from here last night! If I look at it, they must have eaten it and didn’t dare to admit it!” One of them immediately said.
“So?” Su Wanwan raised her eyebrows. She did not understand what these people were doing. She heard that Magi had dark minds, but why did these people seem to be brainless? Isn’t this method of framing too simple? It can be easily exposed.
Playing such a trick on them really belittled his IQ!
Qi Chengfeng said, “What is your goal? Do you want silver or something else? Tell me.”
The villagers were stunned. One of them raised his hoe and scolded, “What do you mean? Are you looking down on us? We are doing it for justice! Compensate our chickens and get out!”
Qi Chengfeng’s face darkened as he said, “Guess where the person who can speak to me with this tone is now?”
The villagers looked at each other and said, “I don’t know.”
“He’s already dead.” Qi Chengfeng said indifferently. The villagers were stunned, as if they were petrified on the spot. They were extremely angry and said, “You actually dare to threaten us!”
“It’s not a threat, it’s just a statement of facts.” Qi Chengfeng said indifferently. He pointed at the broken temple and said, “Everyone can go in and look for it. If you can find any evidence that we ate chicken yesterday, then you can scold us without restraint. I won’t say anything else.”
Only then did the villagers release their anger and immediately walked towards Qi’s room.
The villagers who had just spoken up for the owner of the lost chicken said, “If they throw it away, they will only be nearby. Let’s go and look for it!”
“Whatever.” Su Wanwan said coldly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Wanwan suddenly remembered that Beichuan Fengliu had only ordered people to throw it away. She did not know where she had thrown it. If the villagers took it out, she thought that it would be used as an article.
Thinking of this, Su Wanwan frowned.
The villagers immediately surrounded the area and searched for a long time, but they didn’t find anything.
“Are you looking for chicken feathers?” Beichuan Fengliu said.
A villager pointed at him and immediately said, “How do you know? Did you bury it?”
“I didn’t bury it.” Beichuan Fengliu said, but in his heart, he said, Hidden in a tree.
“Then why can’t I find it?” The villager said angrily.
“Then you should ask yourself.” Kitagawa Fengliu rolled her eyes and said, “Why are you asking us for a play?”
“You!” The villager was furious. Su Wanwan’s eyes were sharp. She noticed that the villager’s clothes were slightly greasy. She smiled and asked, “Do you live next door to the chicken owner?”
“How do you know?” The villager was astonished, and his heart was filled with fear.
“That’s right.” Su Wanwan nodded and pointed at the grease stains on the villagers’ sleeves. “You can’t wash off the grease on your hands, plus the grease stains on your hands, your panicked expression, and your eagerness to find out the real culprit. Surprisingly, you are the chicken thief!”
“…”
That person’s face turned pale and was exposed under the pressure of the villagers. It turned out that that person only wanted to eat chicken, but he was reluctant to eat chicken from his own family, so he started thinking about chickens from other people’s families. That was why he did this.
The owner of the chicken was named Fang Shen. In order to thank the few of them, he invited Su Wanwan and the others to sit at home and serve drinks. He also answered Su Wanwan’s and the others’ questions.
Asked about Old Man Shen’s mysterious figure, Fang Shen was stunned for a moment and said, “What are you looking for him for? He has already passed away.”
“What!” Su Wanwan was shocked. “How old is he this year?”
“Eighty is twenty.” Fang Shen replied.
“Oh.” Su Wanwan nodded and looked at Qi Chengfeng. The doubts in their eyes disappeared.
“Then who is the most powerful magician here now?” Su Wanwan asked.
“It’s me.” Fang Shen nodded.
“Then can you tell who I am?” Su Wanwan asked.
“You can tell with a glance that you are married to this handsome young master beside you. It’s her wife. You two have extraordinary bearing. You must be people of extremely high status.” Fang Shen said.
Su Wanwan was speechless as she thought to herself, Isn’t this nonsense? Could she and Qi Chengfeng be husband and wife if they clenched their hands tightly? Moreover, the clothes they were wearing were all made of silk. Who wouldn’t be able to tell that they were noble?
He said this, and he was suspicious of pretending to be ignorant.
Su Wanwan glanced at him and found that he was also looking at her. She looked at her whole body, and her gaze made Su Wanwan a little annoyed. She said, “What are you staring at me for?”
Fang Shen chuckled. “We often don’t have people in this place, so it’s hard to see any girls outside. Now that you look at them like this, I think all the girls outside are as beautiful as flowers!”
“Thank you for the compliment.” Su Wanwan nodded, but in her heart, she was cursing, “Is it appropriate for a fifty-year-old man to look at a little girl like this?”
Fang Shen didn’t seem to know what Su Wan was saying. He looked at it for a while before slowly leaving.
Occasionally, the Fang Clan would bring lunch over, and Su Wanwan and Qi Chengfeng would sit together.
Qi Chengfeng glanced at my rice when they came over with their meals. He found that my rice was of different sizes, but it was also dry food. This was much better than other families.
There was also a plate of pickles and soup on the table.
The three of them sat down. Fang Shen, who was standing at the side, looked at the seats where the few of them were sitting. He extended his hand and placed the rice bowl in front of Beichuan Fengliu in front of Su Wanwan.
“Who are you?” Su Wanwan asked doubtfully.
“I made the three of you laugh.” Fang Shen smiled and said, “We can’t grow too much food in the mountains and forests. I saw that the food in front of this young master was a little too little. I thought that the young lady’s family would always eat less, so I changed it. You two don’t mind, please eat.”
Su Wanwan shook her head and said, “You may have misunderstood me. I’m asking you, what did you add to our meal?”
