Three days later in the morning, Sai Liu's father's funeral was held in a low-key manner. All the guards, including Oka, attended the funeral. Xia You was holding Sai Liu, who had been crying for the whole morning. Although she had been consoling Sai Liu every day that her father would live happily in heaven, the girl's grief had not lessened.
Although the guards were curious about the relationship between Xia You and the Sai Liu family, no one was in the mood to ask. They only bowed to the tombstone and nodded slightly at Sai Liu and Xia You.
" Sai Liu, your father died in the line of duty for the sake of justice. Don't be too sad…" After everything was over, Oka went to Sai Liu's side to comfort her before he led the garrison away. He then nodded at Xia You." Well, that's it. Don't forget to report to the garrison in a few days. Your father and I were very good friends when we were alive. I will definitely bring you along and nurture you well!"”
Xia You looked at Oka who was walking away and narrowed her eyes. Don't forget, Xia You's Omnipotent Five Sight talent had a penetrating vision, which meant that one could see through people's hearts, also known as mind reading! That was not what Oka was thinking when he said those words to Sai Liu!
Furthermore, in the original novel, Ou Ka was known as the Ghost of Ou Ka. He was definitely a person who had done all kinds of bad things in the Imperial Capital. Yet, such a person actually said that he had a good relationship with Sai Liu's father, who had his goal of justice. He had to say that these words could only deceive an innocent girl like Sai Liu!
"Sai Liu, was your father very close to Captain Oka when he was alive?”Xia You pretended to ask casually.
"Father has never mentioned Captain Oka at home, but since he's father's superior, their relationship should be quite good!”Sai Liu thought about his father's interpersonal relationships when he was alive. It seemed that Captain Oka had never come to his house.
It seemed that the cause of Sai Liu's father's death was very suspicious! Xia You recalled the thoughts in Oka's heart that she had heard with her mind reading ability. However, there was no evidence after all. Even if she told Sai Liu, Sai Liu would not believe it. Therefore, Xia You could only press down the button and not say anything.
Four days later, Xia You and Sai Liu went to the garrison together. After filling out the form, they were each given a set of garrison uniform. Xia You began to patrol the streets with another partner, while Sai Liu was left by Oka to handle the case. Although she was worried that Ou Ka would have evil intentions, Ou Ka only brainwashed Sai Liu in the original novel and did not do anything to him. Moreover, Xia You could use her long-range vision and x-ray vision to form a clairvoyant eye to follow Ou Ka. Therefore, Xia You silently left the captain's office.
Some of the colleagues on the road looked at Xia You unkindly. After all, the troops in any place were forced to respect. Xia You looked like a burden regardless of her appearance and age. Although she was said to be a relative of Sai Liu's father in the countryside, she did not have any friendship with Xia You. Therefore, Xia You greeted her colleagues and was indifferent.
As soon as they left the garrison gate, the shaft of a carriage that was pulling stones happened to break. All the stones on the carriage fell in the middle of the road. After the coachman changed the shaft of the carriage, he found a few big men to pull them hard. The few of them held it in until their faces were red, but they only let the stones move slowly.
Xia You stepped forward and gently lifted it. The few big men only felt their bodies relax. Then, the group of people looked at Xia You with a blank expression as she held the stone with one hand and asked the coachman: " Do you want to move it to this carriage?"”
The coachman nodded blankly.
Although Xia You tried her best to let go, the carriage still sank. Then Xia You turned around and asked her colleague with a smile,"Senior, may I ask which street I should patrol?"”
Naturally, everyone became enthusiastic.
"…Turn right from here and you will reach the City Lord's Mansion. The street in front of the City Lord's Mansion is the wealthy district. When we patrol the streets, we focus on these places.”Xia You's partner, Benjen, tried his best to introduce the various areas of Romaniel City to Xia You.
Xia You nodded. She saw a vendor selling ice cream on the street. She turned to her partner and said with a smile," Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Benjeni. I'll treat you to ice cream."”
Benjen thanked him profusely.
After buying two ice creams, Xia You followed Benjen and leisurely looked around the streets. She casually asked about the relationship between Sai Liu's father and Oka.
" Captain Oka, their relationship wasn't that good or bad in the past. However, a few days before the last raid, I heard them arguing outside the captain's office. Then, Sailu's father came out of the office with a furious expression…"
"…Actually, everyone admires Sai Liu's father. In this world, there are very few good people like him! Unfortunately…"
" You're talking about the last time we exterminated the bandits? Actually, those bandits were just a bunch of poor people. Occasionally, they would rely on the people on the roadside to collect more toll fees from passing merchants. I don't know how they were lucky enough to tame a few dangerous species. I heard that those species are usually raised between the rich and the nobles. They eat meat every meal. Usually, raising a few more would make their owners poor…"
Benjeni was obviously a chatterbox. Once he opened his mouth, he could not stop. Xia You listened to him one by one. Occasionally, Benjeni would pull back the topic when he got off topic. After understanding more, she felt that Sai Liu's father's death was very suspicious.
Just like that, the whole day passed. At dinner time, it was still Sai Liu who cooked. Xia You sat at the dining table and watched Sai Liu busy himself in the kitchen. Occasionally, she would ask about the situation at the garrison today and tell Sai Liu about what she saw on the streets today. Thus, the day passed.
