Wu Heng looked at Xiao Xiao, “Xiao Xiao, once this is over, let's visit your mother's place and check how your Skill training is going?”
“Okay, I miss my mom, but don't get your hopes up too high about the Skill, Uncle,” Xiao Xiao said with a knowing look.
“You have to have faith in your mother.”
“Alright, let's hope she succeeds,” Xiao Xiao replied.
Wu Heng glanced at her and asked, “When your mother has learned the Skill, in what ways do you still want to help her?”
“Me?” Xiao Xiao fell into thought, circling in the air a couple of times before saying, “Get her to a higher level, or find her a boyfriend, I dunno… we'll talk about it then.”
What a modern thinker.
Even thinking about finding a boyfriend for her own mother.
“Then we'll talk about it then.”
“I'm off to watch a movie,” Xiao Xiao said and left the place immediately.
Bella also left, going to watch a movie together.
Wu Heng stood by himself, pouring a cup of tea.
His eyes fell on Glenda, who continued to browse through books.
Out of curiosity, he asked, “Glenda, I haven't asked before, what was your ex-husband's name?”
“Ex-husband? What a strange way to refer to him, it sounds as if I've had several,” Glenda said, looking annoyed.
“Call him whatever, I just don't know what to call him,” Wu Heng said, taking a sip of tea.
“How are you so sure it was he who set the house on fire, or perhaps you became a Ghost and saw it was him?” Wu Heng continued to ask.
Glenda suddenly became somewhat cold and panicked.
Even in her semi-transparent state, the panic was apparent.
Who wouldn't be reluctant to recall a terrible experience, especially death?
Glenda said, “I was still conscious at the time, he tied me to a chair in the basement, broke the oil lamp, and watched as the fire consumed me.”
“I became a Ghost, not knowing how long it had been, but the house was already in ruins, it must have been a long time.”
Wu Heng nodded, it seemed the person really wanted to kill her.
Took her to the basement, broke the oil lamp.
In that situation, there was no escaping.
“I see now, try to remember where he might go, and after the exhibition ends, we'll go find him, dead or alive,” Wu Heng said outright.
Such vengeance was good.
No room for easing the resentment.
“Alright,” Glenda forced a smile, “If you had taken over Lundham City earlier, maybe none of this would have happened.”
“Don't overthink it, I'll help you take revenge,” Wu Heng said earnestly.
“Hmm,” Glenda nodded.
“Okay, take care of your health, and tell those little maids of yours to keep it down,” Glenda teased.
“You're the one eavesdropping!”
The streets in the early morning were filled with a heavy moisture.
Gradually, the street began to fill with more and more people.
At this moment, the newspaper boys appeared in everyone's sight.
They quickly took their positions at each crossroads.
Holding up the newspapers in their hands.
They shouted, “Take a look, come and see, the new issue of the newspaper, the Western Street exhibition officially starts tomorrow, all merchant caravans displaying their goods together, the Great Detective's new story released, new cases, new stories, just as thrilling, 65 copper, first come, first served…”
Almost at the same time, similar shouts could be heard in every part of Gold and Silver Island.
The dense crowd instantly swarmed the newspaper boys.
Surrounded them from all sides several layers thick.
“There's a new story, the Great Detective series isn't finished.”
“Great, there's a new story to hear.”
“I wonder what this case is about.”
“Don't push, what's there to push about.”
