Chapter 376 Serial Bureau

Inside the light screen, He Wuyu felt no fear whatsoever.

Just as the blind medicine doctor said, she was someone who had survived a storm of swords and spears, and even if there were ghosts, they would be afraid of her overwhelming aura.

She looked around a few times, found a high stool and sat down: "What are your rules?"

"My rule is, if you want the medicine, you have to pay with your life."

After the blind man finished speaking in a sinister tone, he burst into a strange laugh.

Under the bright blue sky, laughter echoed through the dilapidated shop, each sound deafening, like a vengeful ghost demanding a life.

He Wuyu slammed his hand on the counter: "You think you're so great?!"

She deftly flipped over the cabinet in front of her, then grabbed the blind man by the collar.

The blind man looked directly into her eyes: "Everyone says the He family army never oppresses the people, never abuses their power, but I never expected..."

"With your inhuman, ghost-like appearance, you are not among those who will not be oppressed."

He Wuyu sneered.

She considers herself to be quite principled and moral, but no one should try to use that to blackmail her.

The collar was choking him, making it difficult for the blind man to speak, but he always wore a twisted smile on his face.

"Since you're unwilling to follow the rules, then you'll never get the medicine!"

After saying this, blood trickled from the corner of the blind man's mouth, and with his bulging, empty eyes wide open, he breathed his last.

He Wuyu's expression suddenly darkened, and he put two fingers together to test the pulse on the blind man's neck.

Butler He exclaimed in alarm, "This person..."

"died."

He Wuyu and his guards exchanged a glance, preparing to search, when two screams came from outside.

"Kill...kill someone!"

At the entrance of the pharmacy, several men and women, around thirty or forty years old, looked at the scene inside the pharmacy in a panic.

"It's not like this……"

Butler He was about to explain, but their voices grew increasingly shrill.

"I recognize her! That's General He!"

"General He has killed someone!"

"Guards! This is murder to silence a witness!"

Outside the light screen, Zheng Xun sat up straight, his eyes slightly narrowed.

These people looked flustered, but their words were extremely inflammatory.

[Every word and sentence clearly points out the location, people, and events. Who would believe it wasn't intentional?]

As if to verify her words, a group of people suddenly appeared out of nowhere in the empty and secluded alley.

Several witnesses began to vividly recount what they had just seen to the others.

He Wuyu's personal guards tried to step forward to stop him, but He Wuyu raised his hand and blocked them.

A buzz of discussion arose from the crowd, followed by a variety of gazes, some surprised, some uncertain... and so on.

"I didn't expect that..."

"He Family Army..."

Butler He and his guards were pacing anxiously, glancing at He Wuyu's expression every now and then, hoping she would give them instructions.

Now everything has become clear.

This is a series of elaborate schemes targeting the He family.

He Wuyu wasn't surprised; on the contrary, he felt that this was exactly how it should be.

No wonder the blind medicine man insisted on seeing her. Indeed, how could this charade be performed without her?

Seeing that she seemed to be lost in thought, the anxious steward, Mr. He, tugged at her sleeve: "General, why don't you go back first? Then I'll say they're framing you, and that you didn't even come to the pharmacy!"

He deeply regretted not being able to stop He Wuyu, but what was done was done, and he could only try to make amends.

"That's too late."

"Ok?"

He Wuyu looked outside the door. The area outside the pharmacy was completely blocked, leaving no room for passage.

Different gazes were like branches, whipping her and brushing past her.

Amidst the whispers of doubt and accusations, some people were also sharing stories of her and He Jiajun's misdeeds.

“Oh dear! My husband was bullied to death in the He family army! But I dare not say it, because if I do, I will be ostracized.”

"That's right, there aren't that many saints in this world!"

"He just killed someone, yet he's so calm. It's obviously not his first time."

"Heh, those officials in power are the best at putting on airs; who knows how many shady things they do in private."

Hearing the fabricated accusations, the guards turned ashen with rage: "General, I'll go and drag out those who are talking nonsense!"

“No need,” He Wuyu said with a relieved smile. “They won’t make it.”

Soon, different voices emerged from the crowd.

An elderly woman with a full head of silver hair, carrying a vegetable basket, grabbed the gray-clad man who had started the trouble: "Who are you! What do you want? Why are you slandering General He?"

The troublemaker retorted, "How do you know I'm lying? I'm telling the truth!"

"Really? Your grandma is the one who's really saying it!"

He Wuyu burst out laughing.

These people who are stirring up trouble are clearly not locals of Dayong, otherwise they would know the prestige of the He family army among the people.

The He family's long-term management ensured that the people would not be easily swayed.

Although public opinion can be devastating and slander can destroy a person, she was not a reckless person. After deciding to come to the pharmacy, she arranged for someone to meet her.

To her surprise, before the people she had arranged could even speak, some ordinary citizens stepped forward.

She looked at the silver-haired old woman, her eyes filled with emotion.

These are the people who are the reason why the He family and their army defended Liaozhou without yielding an inch.

The silver-haired old woman was old but strong. She grabbed the man and made him face her questioning: "My son is also in the He Family Army. How could I not know what the He Family Army is like? You just open your mouth and try to label people. I won't stand for it!"

He Wuyu stopped watching coldly and turned his head to give a barely perceptible nod to a young man in black in the crowd.

The young man understood, stepped forward, and sized up the man in gray: "Hey! You're not from Liaozhou, are you? Or... you're not even from our Dayong! Otherwise, you're a heartless ingrate, how could you say such a thing?"

An elderly woman put down her load, pulled out her carrying pole, and stood in front of the troublemakers: "The people of Liaozhou are not to be trifled with by you! The reason why Liaozhou is so lively and the people are so at ease is because of the He family army! Our ancestors have been protected by the He family army for generations. The He family is full of loyal martyrs; everyone in Liaozhou knows this!"

The man in gray tried several times, but he couldn't pry the silver-haired old woman away.

Fearing that his mother-in-law would be hurt, the young man in black pulled the troublemaker in front of him: "I am a native of Liaocheng, why have I never seen you before?"

He pulled the man around in front of the crowd and asked, "Have you seen him before?"

Have you seen him before?

After asking around, no one could recall the person's name.

The man in gray cast a pleading look at his companion.

His companion's eyes darted around, and he hurriedly explained, "We're from out of town!"

"That's not right! This place is so remote, even locals in Liaocheng might not be able to find it. How did outsiders find it?"

"There's a ghost! There must be a ghost!"

The people chimed in, each offering their own opinion, growing more and more certain with each conversation.

Once they sensed their emotions had reached their peak, He Wuyu's men seized the opportunity to incite them: "Arrest them! Quickly!"
