please call me ninth uncle

Chapter 23 Confrontation [Please recommend for collection! 】

"Master, I'm sorry, I was too impatient yesterday and failed to clean up."

After leaving the teahouse, Qiu Sheng immediately approached Lin Jiu and confessed his mistake in a low voice.

"Nothing to do with you."

Lin Jiu shook his head, and was about to say something to Qiu Sheng when a neighbor from the neighborhood greeted him:

"Uncle Jiu, good morning."

"Hey, early."

He smiled and nodded, and said to Qiu Sheng: "Okay, let's talk about it when we go back. There are too many people here."

Qiu Sheng really couldn't be blamed for the matter, the main thing was that he made a mistake in his judgment. He thought that with some preparations, he could easily get rid of the sealed zombie.

It turned out that the special jumping stiff was really hard to kill, and it made a lot of noise, which also led to the church monks rushing over.

At this moment, in that pitch-black hut, where is it so easy to clean up, those de-zombifying objects that have fallen to nowhere?

"Hey let it go, please let me go."

"I'm sorry, folks and elders, please trouble everyone to make way."

At this time, a group of people were coming out from the direction of the church and onto the street.

The leader is a suit and leather tie, with shiny hair and a 'good-looking' boy brother. There are many 'bald heads' around him, both old and young.

"Hey, don't squeeze, watch the way."

"That's right, rushing to reincarnate... er, the mayor?"

"Mayor? Father Wu? You... what are you doing?"

Under the noisy voices of the people on the street, the 'pretty good-looking' young master suddenly stopped his progress, raised his hands and pressed them down, and said to the surrounding pedestrians:

"Everyone, I, David, will apologize to everyone here first. I'm really sorry to bother you."

After finishing speaking, he put down his hands, and immediately said in a solemn expression:

"The thing is like this. Last night, a fire broke out in the church, and a corpse appeared inside. As for me, David, I was fortunate to have the trust of the priest to help investigate this matter...

Fortunately, I learned reasoning with my friends when I was studying abroad, and I still have a little skill in asking myself. Based on some things left at the crime scene, we can simply infer that this was done deliberately. "

"Deliberately? So someone set the fire?"

"No way, set fire to the church?"

"Deliberately set fire, why did that person do that?"

"Father, have you found out who it is?"

"..."

For a while, the surrounding pedestrians talked a lot.

"Hehe, next, the fun is about to begin."

Seeing this, David smiled darkly in his heart, extremely satisfied.

After he came out with everyone, why did he rush forward and then stop on the street?He is deliberately drumming up the residents of these towns.

Then, I saw him say loudly:
"Everyone, please be patient and listen to me!
Although we still don't know the purpose of this person setting fire to the church, and we can't fully guess who this person is, but..."

Speaking of this, David paused on purpose. At this moment, more and more people around him were already looking at him eagerly, waiting to hear what he said next, to see how amazing it was.

After all, there is not enough entertainment in this era, and it is extremely rare to be able to watch the excitement, not to mention that the burning of the church still happened around them.

"But what are you talking about!"

"Say, why are you stopping?"

"Yes, David, you are the son of the mayor, are you afraid of being retaliated against?"

Thanks to the enthusiasm of everyone, David was extremely satisfied. Seeing that the heat was about the same, he said amazingly:

"However, based on the evidence we have gathered, we can already infer that this incident is very likely to be related to Uncle Jiu!"

"What? David, are you crazy?"

"It's related to Uncle Jiu. Uncle Jiu went to burn down the church?"

"Fuck you, Uncle Jiu is a kind person, how could he do such a thing?"

"David, you're still reasoning. It's just nonsense. I think you've only learned some tricks to fool people when you went to study abroad!"

Suddenly, the crowd was in an uproar, especially those who had been helped by Lin Jiu in the past, were extremely dissatisfied with David.

"The bastard Lin Jiu's prestige is so high?"

Although he was prepared in his heart, David was still a little surprised to see so many people dissatisfied.

But he didn't panic, and said loudly:

"Guys, I don't want to believe that it was Uncle Jiu who set fire to the church, but I'm afraid that someone will deliberately frame Uncle Jiu and damage his reputation!

After all, the evidence we found has too much connection with Uncle Nine. They are all ink fountains, bronze mirrors, and wooden swords... This makes people have to doubt it.

Therefore, this is also the reason why we are going to confront Uncle Jiu, because we don't want Uncle Jiu to be framed and let the bad guys go! "

"Wooden swords, ink fountains, etc., are really more on Uncle Jiu's side, this..."

"What's the matter, didn't David say that someone is framing Uncle Jiu, we must not let a bad guy go!"

"We're going to confront, we're going to support David!"

"David is right, we want to return Uncle Jiu's innocence!"

At this time, the point of people's agreement seems to gradually become strange, from being dissatisfied with David's claim that Lin Jiu set the fire, to now approving of David's search for evidence and Lin Jiu's innocence.

As the commotion became louder, more people ran over to watch.

On a street not far away, Lin Jiu was walking towards home with Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, but he also felt the movement of the crowd.

There was no way, people passed by from time to time, and then surrounded David to watch the play, it was hard for Lin Jiu not to notice.

"Master, what's going on over there?"

Qiu Sheng also asked questions in confusion.

"You ask me, who am I asking?"

Lin Jiu said angrily, the three of them have been together all this time, how did he know what happened there?Is he really a master who is omnipotent?
"Hey, I'm used to it."

Hearing this, Qiu Sheng said with a sneer: "Doesn't that explain it, we all feel that you, Master, have great powers from the bottom of our hearts."

As he spoke, he casually patted Wen Cai who was behind him: "Do you think so?"

"Yeah yeah."

Seeing that he was flopped, Wen Cai, who had always been a little transparent, nodded quickly.

"Grumpy."

Lin Jiu glared at Qiu Sheng, but the corners of his mouth curled up subconsciously.

"hey-hey……"

Hearing this, Qiu Sheng just smiled foolishly and didn't speak.

"Smooter."

Wen Cai gritted his teeth and looked at Qiu Sheng's back, but turned his head a little downcast:

"No wonder the master took you to enjoy 'Sitting the Lotus' and 'Flying to the Moon' yesterday. I have only heard about it, but I have never tried it..."

"Eh wait."

At this time, someone ran over from the crowd, Lin Jiu quickly pulled him back and asked, "I saw you coming from the crowd, what happened over there?"

"Oh, it's you, Uncle Jiu. I'm going to your house to look for you."

Seeing that it was Lin Jiu, the man hurriedly said:

"Uncle Jiu, you don't know. The monks from the church, the gentry and the mayor of the town are surrounded there. David said that the fire in the church was set by you, Uncle Jiu, and he wants to find you." Confrontation!"

"What did you say?!"

Qiu Sheng's complexion changed, and he stepped forward and grabbed the man's arm: "You said David wants to confront my master?"

"Yeah yeah."

The man nodded and said:
"Because he said he found evidence in the church, such as ink fountains, bronze mirrors and wooden swords, so he felt that Uncle Jiu was very suspicious, but it was also possible that someone framed Uncle Jiu, so he told everyone to come and confront him."

"Wooden sword?"

A flash of astonishment flashed in Lin Jiu's eyes. He remembered piercing through the zombie's head with a mahogany sword. How could it survive instead of being swallowed up by the flames?

"master……"

Qiu Sheng looked at Lin Jiu with some worry on his face.

"fine!"

When he came back to his senses, Lin Jiu shook his head at Qiu Sheng. When he looked at the crowd again, his eyes narrowed slightly:

"This little bastard is really trying to die, and he even incited the neighbors in the town."

"Uncle Nine, you have to be careful, I think David's appearance is obviously a sign of bad intentions."

The person beside Lin Jiu said again:

"Uncle Jiu, we all know how you are, you help us a lot on weekdays, how could you do such a thing?
In my opinion, it is because you prevented the reopening of the church before, David deliberately targeted you in order to please Father Wu! "

"Okay, I know, this time I really trouble you to tell me."

Lin Jiu nodded to the man: "You go about your business, and don't stay with me, so as not to be involved unnecessarily."

"Alright then, Uncle Jiu, since you know, then I won't bother you."

This person was very conscientious, he nodded and withdrew first. After all, he was in his forties, with seniors and juniors, and he could see the situation clearly. Even if you break it, you still have to show off your strength.

"Master, what should I do?"

Qiu Sheng looked at Lin Jiu, not knowing what to do.

This de-zombification was obviously doing a good deed, but in the end it was regarded as arson, an attempt to burn down the church.

Obviously, he was more concerned about not keeping things like the ink fountain, but he just left them alone, which hurt the master.

In fact, Qiu Sheng was thinking too much. Even if he packed all these things and the wooden sword was still there, David would find a reason to blame Lin Jiu.

Even if this incident is over like this, David, who already has hatred for Lin Jiu, won't he trouble Lin Jiu in the future?

"Let's go!"

After saying something lightly, Lin Jiu walked towards the crowd with an unpredictable expression.

And just when he passed by, there was such a sentence from the crowd of onlookers:

"Uncle Jiu has prevented the church from re-opening before, maybe, this fire may really be caused by Uncle Jiu."

　Thank you brothers for your continued support. The pace of the last few chapters has been a little slow, and it will speed up later.

　　There is only one 3K chapter today, I am really not in the mood to type, and the quality of this chapter is also poor, sorry.

　　New Year's Day was supposed to be a happy holiday, but as a result, there were two girls in the book city, and they started to gossip without reading the book, clicked in and read it, and there were two trumpets, not to mention the reading time, which was basically nonexistent.

　　There is also a dear friend from the book city who sprays almost every chapter. Although I know you are spraying for the sake of spraying, but you have read the book after all, so I will not delete the comment.

　　Maybe you have encountered some unhappy things recently, maybe it will feel better to vent it?
　　Anyway, I hope everyone will be happy in the new year, be less hostile, and live happily every day!
　　When you encounter a book that doesn't suit your taste, just remove it from the bookshelf. Why waste time typing?
