Don't be defensive girl, I'm blind

Chapter 84 Touching Ruyan's face, she cries secretly (recommendation ticket requested)
From the texture point of view, this booklet is a bit old.

To the touch, there should be a rope wrapped around it to keep it sealed.

Although Xue Mu now has 3% vision recovery.

But I still can't see what the booklet looks like.

He planned to show Xu Ruyan after dinner.

After a while, two women came out.

They also carry a lot of meals.

It seems that today is another hearty meal.

"My lord, it's time to eat." Xu Ruyan put the plate of fish in front of him, and reminded: "My lord, be careful when you can eat fish."

"it is good."

During the meal, in order to avoid their worries, Xue Mu finally said: "In two days, I may have to cooperate with a case. It's a bit risky. You take care of each other at home."

As soon as these words came out, Xu Ruyan and Leng Mei also looked at each other.

At this time, Leng Mei asked: "Is this case involving life?"

"Maybe." Xue Mu nodded.

After all, the people he will deal with in a few days will not be local ruffians like Chen Tai, but real gangsters who kill without batting an eyelid.

If one is not careful, it is really possible to die.

Xu Ruyan said nervously at this moment: "Then can we not go?"

"If you don't go, you probably won't be able to stay in the prison in the future, so you have to go." Xue Mu explained.

Xu Ruyan hesitated to speak after hearing this.

But she didn't say much, but ate in silence.

Xue Mu saw that the atmosphere on the field was a bit cold, so he smiled and said, "Why do I feel like I'm going to die on the spot the next day? It's not that exaggerated. I just go to do odd jobs. Besides, arresting criminals is definitely a must. It's the people from the God Detective Department who will do it, and I will at most be a helper."

Hearing these words, Xu Ruyan felt a little relieved.

She nodded and said, "Master is right, then when you go out, you must be more careful, and run away when you encounter danger."

"Okay, I will definitely do this, don't worry." Xue Mu pretended to be happy.

Leng Mei didn't speak at the side.

She knew that what Xue Mu encountered this time was probably not that simple.

After eating, while Xu Ruyan was cleaning up, Leng Mei said to him, "Remember to take that knife."

"Okay, I see, sister Leng."

After saying that, Leng Mei entered the room and did not come out again.

Not long after, Xu Ruyan came out from the kitchen again.

Xue Mu then said to her, "Come on, let's go into your room."

Xu Ruyan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and led him in.

After closing the door, Xu Ruyan said nervously, "My lord, what's wrong?"

"Look at what is written here?" Xue Mu took out the booklet from his arms.

Xu Ruyan looked at the booklet, sat down, and asked, "This is it?"

"I got this from the floor tiles in your house, maybe it was left by your father, open it quickly and see what's written inside." Xue Mu reminded.

Xu Ruyan was very surprised when she heard this.

She immediately held the booklet and observed it.

"There is a rope tied here, I will remove it first."

After speaking, Xu Ruyan started to do it.

During this process, she even felt a little strenuous.

Obviously, if this was left by her father, it must have recorded something very important.

That's why it's so tightly packed.

Xue Mu obviously also became nervous.

If the things inside can confirm Xu Jie's identity, then the previous mystery will be solved.

Now, he wondered whether Xu Jie, like his father, was an undercover agent secretly placed in Daqing by the Great Xia Kingdom.

He immediately asked, "What's written here?"

"This"

When Xu Ruyan opened the booklet and looked at the contents, she hesitated for a while.

She continued to turn the page, and her expression became more solemn every time she read a page.

Xue Mu knew that she must have seen some incredible content, so he waited patiently.

Until Xu Ruyan raised her head, she said nervously: "This is a book that records the data of every family's big and small fields near the capital."

"Data?" Xue Mu was puzzled: "What data?"

"Every family will be assigned some fields to cultivate more or less. There is a well-founded basis for each person's number of acres of land. My father has been busy for more than half a year before, perhaps because of this."

She went on to say: "But the content recorded here, each family has registered more than the actual number."

"What do you mean?"

"For example, this household in Zhangjiazhuang outside the city, Zhang Baisheng, registered and recorded four acres of land, but after the actual measurement, my father corrected the data to be three acres of land."

Upon hearing this, Xue Mu asked, "Actually, five points less land?"

Xu Ruyan nodded: "Yes, according to my father's booklet, it should be like this."

Xue Mu hurriedly asked: "Keep watching, are they all like this?"

Xu Ruyan flipped through the pages of the booklet at the back, then nodded: "Almost all, more or less will be less."

"Then check to see if there are any registrations that are less than the actual number?"

"No."

Xue Mu was surprised: "You are sure so soon?"

Xu Ruyan replied: "Just now I also guessed about this possibility, so when I looked at it, I paid special attention to the number, but I couldn't find it."

Only now did Xue Mu recall that she possessed the ability of photographic memory.

It appears that the booklet is incomplete.

If there are many people, there must be few people.

This is an ironclad law.

Perhaps during the investigation by Xu Jie, some people were not willing to cooperate.

In any case, this booklet involves land and quarterly taxation.

Xue Mu felt that this booklet must be well hidden.

He then said to Xu Ruyan: "Ruyan, can you write down all the contents of this booklet tonight?"

"Well, I can."

"It's okay if you can't remember it, I'll give you another night."

"No, son, one night is enough."

Seeing Xu Ruyan's self-confidence, Xue Mu felt that he should also trust her memory.

So he encouraged: "Okay, then try to memorize all the contents of this booklet tonight, this booklet is very important, we must hide it, and we cannot take it out casually, so if you memorize these numbers, then we will It's easy."

"Okay, don't worry, young master." Xu Ruyan nodded.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xue Mu planned to leave.

Seeing this, Xu Ruyan cautiously asked, "My lord, is it very dangerous for you to go out to handle the case this time? You just didn't say anything on purpose just now."

Xue Mu knew that although she was pure in nature, she had a delicate mind.

So he no longer concealed it and said: "Well, this time I might lose my life."

"Then can we not go?" Xu Ruyan summoned up her courage and said.

Her eyes were slightly red, and there were some tears in her eye sockets: "I have lost my father, I'm afraid. I'm afraid."

"Don't worry, Ruyan, I'll be fine, besides, we still have to rely on "The West Chamber" to make a lot of money!" Xue Mu comforted.

He knew that Xu Ruyan was crying secretly, so he came to her slowly by instinct.

He reached out and stroked her face, wiping away her tears.

At this moment, Xu Ruyan couldn't bear it anymore.

She put her head forward slightly, and buried her in Xue Mu's arms, holding his clothes carefully with her two small hands, weeping in a low voice.

It was also at this moment that Xue Mu felt.

If the improvement in strength these days is to prevent myself from being bullied.

Then the improvement of strength and status in the future is for the reassurance of those who care about themselves.

This also made him more determined to pass the case of the gangster and slowly move towards a higher status.
