It's Obviously a Life Skill, But You Developed It Into a Magical Skill Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Zhou An, who helps the cook

Yu Hang spoke with great emotion, kept dancing, and even made onomatopoeic words in his mouth, simulating the movements of wielding a knife.

He has no choice, what can he do?

If you want to hide it, you can only tell the truth and lie.

He told the truth about what happened, but he told lies about the identity of the mysterious man.

This is the best way to hide it.

Zhang Sixian and Xie Captou looked at each other and fell into silence.

They did not doubt Yu Hang.

Because Yu Hang himself is from Anding County, and his wealth is innocent, so innocent that it can be found out with just a casual check.

It is impossible for such an innocent person to interact with a mysterious master.

Furthermore, Yuhang's own social circle only has one person named Faxiao Zhou'an.

As for Zhou An...that is even more simple.

"The mysterious master appears in the small Anding County, and he must have a plan." Zhang Sixian said: "But before that, we have to deal with the Gray Rat Bai people."

Things have priorities.

Squirrel Bairen has already killed two people and must be dealt with first.

As for the mysterious masters, they should be left behind.

After all, it is not clear whether he is an enemy or a friend, so he cannot be provoked hastily.

“Master Zhang, do you have a target?” Xie Captou asked.

Zhang Sixian nodded and said: "This animal cult has appeared before. I will go back to check the information. Maybe I can break through the current predicament."

After saying this, Zhang Sixian looked at Yu Hang.

Yu Hang was listening with his ears pricked up, and became more and more enthusiastic as he listened. Suddenly he was glanced at by Zhang Sixian, and he immediately stood up straight, pretending not to hear.

"Since you have been targeted, you cannot go back, otherwise it will be very dangerous. You will stay in the Yamen temporarily for the next few days. With Mr. Xie here, you should be able to have no worries." Zhang Sixian said.

Yu Hang nodded quickly.

　　Although his good brother is ridiculously strong, he is unwilling to reveal his identity, and it is impossible for him to go back.

According to normal logic, if you don't know the identity of the mysterious master, you should choose to stay at this time.

Yu Hang can only follow this logic.

"Let's rest first." Xie Captou said, "I've been staying at the Yamen these days to see if I can wait and see."

There is nothing else to do next.

Yu Hang was arranged into a room and lived in it.

A man from Zhangsi County left the Yamen mysteriously.

The next day.

After Zhou An got up and washed up, he had breakfast at a stall outside, and leisurely prepared to go to the county government to fish.

What happened last night seems like it never happened.

When Zhou An walked into the Yamen, he happened to bump into Yu Hang. The two of them winked at each other and already understood what the other person wanted to say.

Zhou An went to the fish room as usual, poured a cup of tea, drank a few sips slowly, then stood up and went out with a long knife in his hand.

He thought for a long time yesterday and felt that two hours every night was too short.

To ensure your own rest and to ensure that you have the job of being a detective, you must find ways in other aspects.

Rest is a must, and in this kind of world one must maintain sufficient energy.

The job of being a police officer represents the officialdom, and sometimes it may produce unexpected results.

So, Zhou An decided to find a balance between the two.

You can fish while working, and you can also practice knife skills while fishing. Zhou An left the room and walked straight towards another house.

As soon as I opened the door, I smelled the aroma of rice.

This is the kitchen of the yamen, where the detectives can eat.

If you do not eat, you can receive some monthly subsidy.

The state of Chu has very good welfare for those who serve as officials, even those like them.

Zhou An usually doesn't eat here, so he can get some extra money every month.

When he opened the door, he saw the cook working on the stove.

The cook is very old, in his sixties, with gray hair and a thin body, but his eyes are bright.

It is said that many people came to apply for the job, but in the end they chose this old man.

There is no other reason. The big pot dishes made by the old man are really delicious.

Originally, I am working in the kitchen, and good food is the most important thing.

“Old Liu, are you still busy?” Zhou An said with a smile.

Chef Liu was washing vegetables. After hearing this, he looked at Zhou An strangely: "Why are you here free?"

As a cook in the kitchen, he knew very well who came to eat and who didn't. Zhou An had never come here to eat.

The sudden appearance of this man today made Chef Liu feel very strange.

“Isn't this something I want to discuss with you?”

Zhou An walked to the side, moved a small mazha, and sat opposite Chef Liu.

“Didn't you tell the county magistrate some time ago that you would like the policeman who is not patrolling the streets to help with the cooking? What do you think of me?”

Not long ago, Chef Liu often complained to the county magistrate that he was unable to do what he had to do by himself, cutting and washing vegetables, as well as cooking and washing rice.

The county magistrate thought that he might as well select people from among the policemen who were not patrolling the streets, and these policemen would come and help with the cooking when they were free.

Of course, it's not free. You can have a free lunch here every day.

But after this proposal came out, no one came forward, because a lunch was not worth much money at all, and he still had to be busy.

These guys are used to fishing, and asking them to come over to help with the cooking is simply harder than killing them.

Zhou An is different. He thought about it for a while yesterday and decided to use this method.

Come over and help the cook when you have free time. When you are helping the cook, you can chop vegetables. Isn't this your skill with a knife?

Moreover, he has a legitimate reputation and can keep his job as a police officer.

Perfect!

"Weren't you unwilling before? And you didn't even want to eat." When Chef Liu heard this, he frowned, with doubts on his face.

Zhou An said mysteriously: "Old Liu, do you feel that you have been peaceful recently?"

Chef Liu thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's not peaceful, it's making people panic, rats can even worship people, and people have their internal organs emptied. I think this is quite troublesome."

“That's fine.” Zhou An said: “In an unstable world, what's most important? Money! We have to hurry up and save some money. If we can save a little, it's better.”

"But I can't save much..." Chef Liu was speechless: "It's just one meal."

Zhou An said seriously: "You can't say that. If you can save a little bit, you can save all the money."

Chef Liu fell into silence. After a while, he said, "Then you have to promise me that this work must be done for a long time. As long as you are not patrolling the streets or have a case to handle, you must come to help the cook."

“It's necessary.” Zhou An patted his chest and assured.

Cook Liu believed it for the time being, explained to Zhou An, and immediately went to notify the county magistrate to finalize the matter.

Zhou An didn't say much. After saying a few words of thanks, he returned to the fish room and continued drinking tea.
