My Koi Fish Wife

Early the next morning, Zeling and his wife led the team members back to the north without stopping.

Something happened at the Chu family's experimental homestead. It is estimated that Chu Tianxiong will get the news by the afternoon, and the Chu family will definitely send a large number of troops to investigate.

However, their status is such that they cannot withstand interrogation at all, so this place is not suitable for staying for a long time, and if they continue to stay here, they will only bump into the entrance of the wooden warehouse. It is better to avoid it first, and then take advantage of the Chu family's chaos. On this occasion, troops were sent to attack the Chu family's base camp.

When the time comes, they will be attacked from both sides, making it impossible for the Chu family to escape!

At this time, the experimental homestead on the outskirts had been burned into a pile of black ruins. Except for the outlines of the ground piles, the other buildings had turned into charcoal.

A group of people lying at the foot of the mountain also woke up when it was slightly light.

Sure enough, as Yan Ze thought, after a group of people woke up, they immediately understood the situation they were facing. Looking at the burned homestead and the missing nobles, everyone was scared to death.

They knew clearly in their hearts that someone had attacked and even destroyed the homestead last night, and they had failed to guard it and had neglected their duties.

If Marshal Chu knew about it, they would definitely not be able to get around them. They had also heard about Marshal Chu's behavior.

In particular, Marshal Chu valued those foreigners very much. However, now that the foreigners were gone under their guard, whether someone kidnapped the foreigners or burned them along with the house, they, the guards, could not escape the relationship.

"Why are we so happy at the foot of the mountain?"

"Hey, what else? The other party is coming for the Chu family, or for those foreigners!"

"Humph, the Chu family and those foreigners are not good people to begin with."

"That is, if it weren't for the sake of making a living and providing food for the family, who would be willing to work hard for them?"

"Yes, I always feel that those foreigners are doing bad things behind the scenes."

"Hey~ Who asked us to get wages from the Chu family? This is the way the world is."

"Do you think it was the Wei family that did it?"

"Whether it's the Wei family or not, the other party clearly has no ill intentions towards us and was kind enough to let us live."

"What should we do now?"

"What else can we do? The other party has spared our lives, is it possible that you still want to die?"

"Who would be so stupid? There will be no good results if you go to the Chu family."

"I'm not going. Anyway, no third party knows what happened in the middle of the night last night. Why don't we take advantage of this and escape?"

"Yes, this is a good idea. Let those people think we were burned to death."

"That's it! Hurry, let's take a closer look around and smooth out all the traces."

So, a group of people took advantage of the fact that it was still not fully bright and cleared away all the human traces walking around the house, pretending to be a fire accident.

After everything was settled, a group of people quickly evacuated the scene.

By the time Chu Tianxiong learned that there was a fire at his homestead, it was already around four o'clock in the afternoon.

The person who reported this matter discovered it when the county sent people to deliver supplies as usual.

When they heard the shocking news, Chu Tianxiong and the foreigners sitting around him were shocked.

Chu Tianxiong had an angry look on his face, "Why did a fire happen just like this?"

One of the foreigners wearing glasses asked anxiously in broken Chinese, "Where are the researchers we sent?"

The little clerk who delivered the supplies shrank his neck and replied truthfully, "I don't know. It was already half the morning when I arrived at the house. The whole yard had been burned to ashes, and even some large objects in the house were burned." It’s turned into scum, I’m afraid, I’m afraid.”

"boom!"

Chu Tianxiong slapped his palm on the table, "Check it for me, check it carefully! I want to see who has the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard!"

The adjutant on the side responded immediately, turned around and asked the young officer.

"Let me ask you, did you carefully check around the house at that time? Did you find anything strange?"

The young clerk arched his back and answered honestly, "The young man carefully looked around the entire 100-meter radius. Not to mention the traces of carriages, he didn't even see a single human footprint."

Hearing this, everyone in the room frowned.

Chu Tianxiong sneered, "You mean, you accidentally started the fire in the courtyard? And everyone in the courtyard was burned to death by the fire?"

is it possible?

The fire wanted to devour the entire courtyard. This process would take a certain amount of time. He didn't believe that no one would escape from the courtyard during this time.

Either the other party tied up everyone in the courtyard and burned them all, or someone escaped and became a deserter.

But no matter which result it was, he couldn't accept it.

Regarding the marshal's words, the young officer did not dare to say anything. This matter had nothing to do with him, so there was no reason for him to bear this responsibility.

At this time, the young officer felt a little regretful, thinking that he might get a reward for making this trip, but he didn't know that this incident aroused the marshal's anger.

What a thankless task! What a mistake!

Several foreigners on the side suddenly couldn't sit still and looked at each other with angry expressions.

"Marshal Chu, what do you mean? Is the top researcher we specially sent just gone? If you don't give us an explanation, then there is no need to continue our cooperation."

"Yes, we spent a lot of money to invite those people here."

"Didn't you send a lot of guards? Why did it become like this?"

"Marshal Chu, the researchers we invited are not ordinary people. If they are gone like this, our Prime Minister will not give up."

"No matter what, you want to see people alive, and you want to see your corpse when you die!"

"The Chu family must give us a reasonable explanation!!"

Several foreigners talked to each other incessantly. Chu Tianxiong's face became darker and darker as he heard this, and he felt a fire in his heart that had no place to vent.

He is a dignified marshal, but now he is being pointed at the nose and reprimanded. How does this make him lose face?

If he couldn't afford to offend these people, he would have killed them long ago, why would he let them scream in front of him.

However, now he not only had to endure the suffocation and anger in his heart, but also had to carefully apologize and try his best to appease and please.

Who makes them their biggest investors?

"Please be patient, I will definitely investigate this matter and give you an explanation."

As the leader of the foreigners, the man with glasses had a dissatisfied face.

"Hmph, then let's just wait and give you three days to give us a satisfactory explanation. No matter who did it, we dare to murder our researcher. We will never forgive this murderer!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Robert, I will investigate this matter myself."
