Ah Chun - Volume 1 Chapter 321 The Search Part One
Ah Chun turned her head to see the same old man she had met before in the back alley when she beat that young master. He had a big grin on his face as he walked in with his hands behind his back. “I can help you find anyone. As long as they were in Black Mountain City, I can find out where they are or where they might have gone.”
Ah Chun looked at the cheeky smile on the old man’s face and knew he wanted something. “What do you want in return?”
“Nothing much, I just want you to call me Grandpa Zi instead of old man and I want to ask you to knock my grandson around every time you see him. You wouldn’t believe that after such a beating from you he still went out and caused more trouble. For these two simple requests, I will find whoever you want.” The Grandpa Zi said as he sat down across from Ah Chun, picked up a cup of tea and sipped it.
Ah Chun smiled and shook her head. “Then Grandpa Zi, I will accept your terms.”
“Great! Let’s get started then. Bring him in!” *Pfft!* Ah Chun let out a laugh as the man she had just recently thrashed was dragged into the room.
Ah Chun got up out of her seat, cracked her knuckles, and walked over to the man. Once he saw Ah Chun his eyes became filled with fear and then looked over at his Grandfather with pleading eyes. Grandpa Zi only smiled and said: “I told you if you caused any trouble you would regret it. This girl here is now like my own granddaughter. I have tasked her with knocking some sense into you every time she sees you. And look she happens to have seen you!”
The man wanted to shout out with all his might. ‘Of course, she sees me, you dragged me to her and tossed me in front of her. This is like tossing a lamb into a wolf’s den!‘ Unfortunately, his words would not come out due to his mute point being hit.
Ah Chun walked over with a smile plastered on her face. “If you scream loud enough I will stop.”
Ah Chun’s words made the man want to yell out in rage! He knew Ah Chun was saying that on purpose because he couldn’t speak!
A short while later Ah Chun sat back down with a bit of blood on her face. On the other side of the room was a balled up meat patty. Grandpa Zi smiled and asked: “Feeling a bit more relaxed?”
“Un! Feels much better after a bit of stress relief. These conditions are not bad at all Grandpa Zi.” Ah Chun said with a smile.
“I figured you wouldn’t mind them. Now let’s get down to business. Who is it that you want me to find?” Grandpa Zi asked.
“Well, it’s two people. One is an elder of our sect named Elder Ming and another is my senior brother Dong Yi. But the most important one to find is Elder Ming, Dong Yi is just an afterthought.” Ah Chun said only to be nudged by Mei Yan who was next to her.
“Junior Sister…” Mei Yan called out.
“Fine He is not just an afterthought but he is a pervert.” Ah Chun conceded. Mei Yan did not deny what Ah Chun said, so now in the eyes of Grandpa Zi, Dong Yi had become some kind of weird pervert. From this point on, he would also be treated as such.
“Then I will help find your elder and the pervert then. But just so you know it might take some time and since someone seems to be targeting your sect, I would like to offer you a room here at the auction house.” Grandpa Zi did not like the fact that two people from the same sect disappeared only days apart. That meant someone was deliberately targeting them.
“Then I will take you up on that offer. One room will do. Senior Sister won’t be comfortable if she is by herself. But I need an extra bed.” Ah Chun knew that Mei Yan would not feel safe by herself.And she did not want Xu Wei being too far just in case.
“That is not a problem, I will have an extra bed brought into our biggest room. Food and drink will be brought to you as well. If anyone acts suspicious, please restrain them without hurting them, if you can. If for some reason they attack you, kill without mercy! But I must ask what about the big guy there.” Grandpa Zi suddenly remembered that Xu Wei was also in the room. Xu Wei was so quiet that he had forgotten he was even there.
“It’s fine Big Brother Xu will sleep on the extra bed. I will share one with my Senior Sister.” Ah Chun also figured it would be easier and less of a burden to the auction house to arrange it this way. Until they figured out who was behind her Elder’s disappearance they had to lay low for a little while.
“Then we will do as you say. If you need anything just ask Manager Chen. He will make sure your stay here is a pleasant one. I will go now and try to make a few inquiries.” Grandpa Zi stood up and gave Ah Chun a meaningful glance before leaving the room.
“Then Fairy Chun if you do not mind please follow me.” Manager Chen said.
“Then I will be troubling Manager Chen. If anything happens in the future and I am around please call for me I will help in any way I can.”
