Imperial City Investigative Department

Chapter 397 The Gap Between Brothers (Part [-])
Gu You was in a hurry:

"Don't deceive me with these words because I don't have enough brains. I, I will listen to Xu Da. If he thinks it is feasible, I will stay. If Xu Da refuses to agree, don't blame me for not keeping my promise. You People, it's unbelievable!"

Gu You left the room angrily.

Wu Chen shook his head, smiled bitterly at himself, and then muttered to himself:
"Second brother, what do you think I should do so that they don't follow? What I did, you know, was not done by humans. I can't help it, but it has nothing to do with them! This trip... I can't count Good or bad, just look at the Queen Mother's appearance, Shuangxi Village is not a good scenic spot, I am really afraid that someone will be like you and just... leave!"

"Aren't you taking me with you?" Datou pushed the door open and entered.

Wu Chen froze for a moment, he didn't hear the sound of the big head approaching.

"Ping Gu said she was sleepy, so I asked her to rest at my place first, while the fourth child and the fifth and sixth child were tidying up the wing room in my yard, and I moved all the useful things in my house to her. "

The big head sat down beside Wu Chen while talking.

Wu Chen didn't speak.

Big head said:
"If you want me to say, just us two brothers, if you go to fight, put me in one place. If I feel that you are in danger, I will tell you loudly. If anyone wants to come and kill me, my flesh will not be killed by a sword or a knife. If you can kill me, then you can come back and save me. To be honest, you are no match for the opponent. It would be good for us two brothers to come and walk together! Otherwise, if you really have something to do, I’m not close, and I’m afraid you will die. Madness is ultimately death."

Wu Chen looked at Datou, and suddenly thought that if he had to leave after the task was completed, how would Datou survive?

"If one day, I don't die, but suddenly disappear, you..."

"What's the difference between that and death? Suddenly disappeared? Did he go to a far away place? You're lying to a child! I won't believe it."

Wu Chen let out a long sigh and thought about asking Lao Hei if he overfulfilled the task, could he leave with Da Tou?

Seeing that Wu Chen was silent, the big head patted Wu Chen on the shoulder and said:
"I know you don't want to burden them. You have to look at it this way. If you don't show up, they each have their own lives. Whether they live a good life or a bad life, at least they can live. But for me, if you don't show up , I starved to death without waiting for the weather to get colder. It was just luck that I was able to survive those years. Since I lived a few more months because of you, it makes sense to lose my life because of you. It’s different from them. "

Wu Chen looked at the big head speechlessly, sighed and said, "I wanted to take you with me, just the two of us..."

"You still have to bring the eldest brother and the others with you. If you leave the seven older brothers like Xu Da and the others, they will still die."

Wu Chen took a deep breath and said, "My brother is still thoughtful."

The big head smiled and said: "What we are talking about now is the worst possibility. My own brother, I understand that with all your abilities, you may not have to die."

Wu Chen thought of Huo Ran, shook his head and said, "If I fight with others, maybe I have a chance of winning, but I'm afraid they have monsters..."

"Now that you have Qi Mo, what are you afraid of?"

Wu Chen straightened his back immediately and thought: Yes, I have washed the ink!

Seeing that Wu Chen's complexion had improved a lot, Da Tou said, "Gu Zuo is very poor. He can only lie in bed every day. I go to talk to him every day. He said that Chen Zhong should have known about the situation under Liu's residence. There are treasures."

It was only then that Wu Chen remembered that he hadn't talked to Gu Zuo yet. He looked at the big head in surprise. The big head who usually only knew how to eat and sleep was instantly enveloped in wisdom, and looked at Wu Chen kindly.

"There is a kind of crispy candy in Gu Zuo's house. Gu You bought it for him. It's very delicious. Every time I go, I feel embarrassed to eat more, so I can only find opportunities to go more..."

Wu Chen blinked, sighed, and said, "Let's go now."

……

Gu Zuo didn't expect Wu Chen to come at this time. He thought Wu Chen should have come a long time ago, and even thought that the first thing Wu Chen would do after waking up was to see him.

It's not that he cares about him, but what Chen Zhong thought and did back then, perhaps only he knows.

But I waited and waited, Wu Chen never came.

From the moment Gu Zuo was picked up, he thought it was because of his usefulness that Wu Chen picked him up, and Gu You was only able to get out of the prison of the Imperial City Division because of his favor. He was also extremely anxious, he was afraid that he would lose a place to live in a blink of an eye.

Finally, Wu Chen woke up, and Gu Zuo waited anxiously, but Wu Chen didn't come. He also tentatively asked the big head and the fifth child who took care of him. They didn't know where Wu Chen had gone, so how could they tell Gu Zuo?

The more Wu Chen didn't come, the more disturbed Gu Zuo was.

While Gu Zuo was lying on the bed, thinking about the reasons why Wu Chen was so nice to their brothers, Wu Chen and Datou came.

Gu Zuo wanted to get up, but he just barely raised his upper body, moved his head forward and placed the pillow behind Gu Zuo, and Gu Zuo finally sat down.

Wu Chen sat by the bed, staring at the halva on the table, eating small pieces.

"I'll ask Gu You where he bought the crispy candy later. My brother loves it very much." Wu Chen turned to look at the big head and said.

Gu Zuo smiled and said:

"It's better not to ask. If Brother Big Head wants to eat, he will come to see me and talk to me for a few words. If you tell someone to buy it, he will stop coming to my place..." Gu Zuo felt That's not right, he quickly explained: "I mean, it's not a good thing for me to talk less, and it's not a good thing to eat too much candy."

Wu Chen nodded in agreement and said:

"Gu You and I have a closer relationship. We have only met you a few times. I feel that you usually like to use your brain. Now you can only lie down. I'm afraid you will become more sensitive and suspicious. It's useless to explain some truths. If you think too much, It’s you who is in trouble. Since this is the case, think of something that will make you happy. Compared with those who have no source of income, you will be much more lucky.”

Gu Zuo lowered his head, thought for a while, and then said: "Gu Zuo can't repay Deputy Envoy Wu's kind deeds, but... I'm a little worried, and I hope that Deputy Envoy Wu can clarify my doubts."

"You are worried that after I know what I want to know, you will be useless, will I care about your life?" Wu Chen looked at Gu Zuo and asked.

"Yes."

"When I asked Gu You to pick you up, I didn't think of asking you anything. I just wanted to solve Gu You's worries. In terms of loyalty in the world, you are far behind your brother. You are full of calculations, I don't like it! You brothers have been greatly influenced by Chen Zhong, and the kindness in your brother's heart has not been wiped out, which saved him and you as well."

Gu Zuo stared blankly at Wu Chen, then lowered his head.

"I didn't come here to reason with you. I came here to ask, since Chen Zhong knows that there is a treasure under the Liu residence, does he know what the treasure is?"
