Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 264: All from East Province

"Is the situation serious?" Xu Ancheng sat down and asked Wei Yan, observing him. The fact that he got injured indicated the opponent was not weak.

"Ancheng, I think it’s related to that incident years ago." Wei Yan said heavily, "Back when Qi Wuting pulled off those acts, there must have been soone behind him. We couldn’t find them then, but now their skills resemble Qi Wuting’s techniques."

"Are you sure?" As soon as Xu Ancheng heard the style of martial arts resembled Qi Wuting’s, it was likely the sa group, "Qi Wenting ntioned that back then he was worried about his brother being alone without elders, which might have left a shadow on his mind, so he was cared for by his grandmother, and Qi Wenting himself occasionally visited, only fully diving into work once he saw people recovering without any peculiarities."

"I rember Qi Wenting’s grandmother’s house was in East Province," Xu Ancheng said, "It wasn’t convenient for us to investigate at the ti, but I rember Qi Wenting looked into it..."

Xu Ancheng’s eyes glead briefly, "Check again the circumstances surrounding Qi Wenting’s transfer to East Province back then; he should know sothing."

"I’ll go find out first, you guys focus on recovery." Xu Ancheng took out money tickets, sugar coupons, and milk powder coupons from his pocket, "Don’t be frugal. Inform when Zhao Guang wakes, so I can arrange als for him, and ensure he recovers well."

"Alright." Wei Yan did not refuse.

Lou Wenjian wasn’t injured, and he didn’t deeply understand the cause of the incident, but he knew about it this ti, nodded at Wei Yan, and left with Lou Wenjian.

"Lou, what happened?" Xu Ancheng waited beside the flower bed beneath the hospital, and asked softly when Lou Wenjian approached.

"The forr guard of Huaixi County Kindergarten died. His body was found by Zhao Guang in an abandoned temple. The location is remote, halfway on the road to the county town, surrounded by woods, and usually no one goes there." Lou Wenjian said.

"The place belongs to Lu Hua Production Team; the guard was from Lu Hua Production Team, nad Du Yong, forty-five years old this year, with no family."

"Zhao Guang took people to inquire at Lu Hua Production Team, where the locals said he hadn’t returned ho in ages. He worked as a guard at the kindergarten, ate comrcial grains, and hardly returned to the team."

"But soone ntioned seeing a light flicker at his house one night, yet upon closer inspection, it vanished, possibly mistaken. Zhao Guang then thoroughly searched Lu Hua Production Team and finally found his body in that broken temple."

"He reported it," Xu Ancheng said.

Lou Wenjian nodded, "I took on this case after receiving the news since Zhao Guang and Wei Yan previously ca to about this issue."

"Wei Yan and Zhao Guang were injured while investigating in Wudong Lane in the east of the city," Lou Wenjian explained, "Du Yong was the guard at the kindergarten and rented a room in Wudong Lane for a month after being dismissed. That place had seen deaths before, so hardly anyone rented it; people hid there."

"Wei Yan and Zhao Guang went at night, the person had sared their face black, making it difficult to see them, but they estimated the height between 1.7 ters and a maximum of 1.72 ters."

"Wei Yan said the person had a mark on their wrist; he couldn’t see clearly, but felt it on the right hand."

Xu Ancheng nodded, "Lou, thank you. I’ll help investigate this matter; I’m heading back now. Tomorrow, I’ll visit you at the police station."

"Alright." Lou Wenjian nodded.

When Xu Ancheng arrived ho, Li Hongying had already prepared dinner; the Yi Family was present as well, and Liu Huilan had brought a lot of vegetables.

Yi Roujing slled a faint scent of blood as Xu Ancheng approached; her sense of sll had beco quite sharp since her pregnancy. She turned to look at Xu Ancheng but saw no visible injuries.

Previously she hadn’t closely observed, but now seeing Xu Ancheng’s slightly furrowed brow and the apparent attempt to conceal sothing in his eyes as he glanced back at her. She remained calm and ate her dinner.

"Mom and Dad, we’ll be staying in Bright Alley for a while, so Roujing doesn’t have to travel back and forth," Xu Ancheng said.

"Alright, alright." Li Hongying agreed cheerfully.

Once back in the room, Yi Roujing sat on the bed waiting for Xu Ancheng to finish washing and co in.

"Why aren’t you asleep yet?" Xu Ancheng asked softly after noticing Yi Roujing sitting there, her gaze following him. His expression softened as he sat down and pulled her close.

Yi Roujing sniffed lightly, the sll had disappeared, indicating it was from sowhere he had been earlier.

"What are you sniffing for?" Xu Ancheng asked, amused by his wife’s child-like behavior.

"Where did you go earlier?" Yi Roujing asked.

Xu Ancheng teased her, "Why? Do I sll like sothing? I assure you, I didn’t secretly et another woman."

"Speak honestly." Yi Roujing sighed, "Has sothing happened? You’re forcing a smile, aren’t you? I slled blood on you earlier. Did sothing happen to Zhao Guang and the others?"

Xu Ancheng paused briefly at her words, then rubbed his head against Yi Roujing’s shoulder, "How are you so clever, wanting to hide it from you initially. You’re in a special condition now, don’t worry, I’ll handle it."

"Don’t worry, I’m not focusing on it, just thinking that knowing another person could help you. Isn’t it true that three heads are better than one?" Yi Roujing patted Xu Ancheng’s back.

Xu Ancheng decided to let Yi Roujing have so caution, so he explained the situation.

"Will Chenyan be in danger?" Yi Roujing listened to the story and realized that the thief might have targeted Xie Chenyan that day. She felt fortunate that she accompanied them, along with Sir Zhang, which prevented any harm.

"The likelihood is low, but I’ll have soone keep an eye on the Xie Family," Xu Ancheng analyzed, "It coincided with the Zou Family’s incident that day, raising attention in the vicinity. Such a household is not ideal for action."

"If they were planning sothing, it should have happened earlier."

Yi Roujing agreed, realizing it was best they kept the matter to themselves to avoid unsettling Xie Chenyan.

"Who will you have deliver als for Zhao Guang?" Yi Roujing asked, "Zhao Guang and the others didn’t recognize the person, but the person likely knows them, since both Zhao Guang and Wei Yan were injured."

"Given Wei Yan’s skills, his arm injury indicates the person couldn’t have escaped unscathed. Be cautious at the hospital; they might go there for dicine or treatnt." Xu Ancheng warned.

"I understand, although I’m in the inpatient departnt, pharmacy wouldn’t require entering there, but I’ll ensure my safety." Yi Roujing promised.

"Don’t worry about other matters, I’ll take care of them. Now, get so sleep." Xu Ancheng tucked her into bed; soon Yi Roujing fell asleep, having spent two tiring days on the train.

This ti, Xu Ancheng led students to achieve the top spot in the national competition. The participating students could enter university, and the school organized a eting to exempt Xu Ancheng from further teaching responsibilities, focusing solely on the competition.

This ant Xu Ancheng was relatively free recently, as selecting competition students required certain mathematics proficiency, recomnded by respective math teachers. Xu Ancheng only needed to begin once the student group assembled.

Currently, Xu Ancheng was the celebrity of County First Middle School. The principal greeted him warmly, allowing him occasional half-day leaves without opposition, which facilitated his handling of matters.
