Chapter 956: Reporting to the police overnight, but no one responded
She stood up in the yard and shouted toward the door where Xiao Zhen lived: "Xiao Zhen."
A figure soon appeared in front of Gu Yao.
"Miss, please give your orders." Xiao Zhen said with a bow.
Gu Yao took out her hands from behind her back, opened her wide cuffs, and revealed a pair of white and tender hands.
She raised her hand and looked at Xiao Zhen: "I trust you, so I give you this. It's a small crossbow the size of a palm, and it can fire 36 rounds in a row. You can use it to protect my safety."
Gu Yao's eyes were indifferent.
But to Xiao Zhen's ears, it was like thunder.
Thirty-six shots. He knew that the bows and crossbows in his country could only fire three shots in a row, and in other countries, the most powerful one could only fire five shots.
Such bows and crossbows only appeared in the royal family.
He couldn't even imagine what thirty-six shots meant.
Could it be that he was hallucinating? He had seen everything except a crossbow with thirty-six rounds.
He looked incredulous, and suddenly a little silly and cute. Seeing his expression, Gu Yao couldn't help but chuckle: "I'm serious. Take it and find a way to make more arrowheads. Just use common materials. The size should be the same as the ones I gave you. There is only one arrow here. If you want to practice, just make more. Don't take this out easily and let others find it. If someone with ulterior motives sees it, they will snatch it away." Gu Yao said jokingly.
Stealing things? Anyone who can snatch things from Xiao Zhen must be a real master, and there are not many of them in Beijing.
"Thirty-six shots?" Xiao Zhen asked again, still in disbelief.
"Yes, that's right, it's thirty-six bullets. It's the only one in the world. I give it to you to protect me. You must keep it well." Gu Yao smiled faintly.
Xiao Zhen said solemnly: "Yes, Miss."
He knew that the young lady didn't want to talk about the details, and she said that she was the only one in the world.
Giving such a good thing to Xiao Zhen shows trust in him, so he must keep the thing well.
The young lady has something good in her hand, something that has never been seen before, small in size but extremely lethal.
Since the young lady didn't say anything, he stopped asking. It was good enough for the young lady to have a hidden weapon to protect herself. The crossbow with thirty-six rounds that the young lady gave him was only the size of a palm, but with thirty-six rounds, it was unique in the world.
If people in the world knew about this, it would definitely bring even greater trouble.
Fortunately, there was no one else in the yard. The lady said that Xiao Zhen had arranged for the one guard who stayed behind to go to the workshop.
The lady is a woman, and having him alone is enough for her.
He would make up for his sleep while working in the workshop during the day, and with him around at night, the young lady would be safe at home.
Gu Yao sent the things out, turned around and went back to rest.
She now trusts Xiao Zhen more and more.
In his previous life, Xiao Zai Ye's Kung Fu was all about boxing and kicking, close combat, and long-range attacks could only be done with guns and firearms. He really had no other good methods.
Xiao Zhen's kung fu includes internal strength and light skills. In terms of kung fu, he is much better than Xiao Zaiye, but in terms of weapons, there is really no comparison.
He has good weapons in his hands, and Gu Yao's safety can be guaranteed.
If Xiao Zhen had this small crossbow in his hand at night, he would have quickly taken care of all the people and Gu Yao wouldn't have to do anything.
The leader was quite skilled, but he was still inferior to Xiao Zhen when fighting together.
She trusted him, so she stopped thinking about other things and just had a good rest. Facing such things every day, a good rest would give her more energy to deal with them.

The Qian family was in an uproar at night.
The Qian family's shop was burned down.
I reported the case to the police overnight, but no one responded at night.
When Yu heard that something had happened in their largest cloth shop, she felt dizzy.
She didn't even dare to imagine what the scene would be like when her husband came back from work and found out that their farm had been burned down.
When Yu thought of this, she fainted from anger.
"Mom, mom, why did you faint? The family is counting on you to take charge of the situation." Qian Yun looked at his mother with disappointment.
It was always said that some aunts were bold and wanted to ride on his head.
When something happened that needed her to solve, she fainted.
Qian Yun now thinks that if his aunt were here, there would definitely be a better way.
She is the only one in the family who can do something useful.
He instructed his maid to take good care of Yu.
She walked into the yard, her eyes full of coldness: "Housekeeper, have you reported to the police? How many pieces of cloth have been rescued?"
The housekeeper raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "The cloth could not be saved. We have reported it to the police. Only the cloth in the shop was burned. The fire was put out in time and the warehouse was not burned. The cloth in the warehouse was saved."
All the cloth in the shop was burned. This was the largest cloth shop in the entire capital.
She also felt dizzy, but she couldn't fall down. If she fell down, it would give others an opportunity.
"Butler, something happened, something happened." A servant ran into the yard with trembling legs.
The housekeeper was trembling with fear during this period, and his whole body was numb.
He didn't want to do it anymore, but he was a family man and couldn't run away whenever he wanted.
He glared at the servant who came running over and said, "What happened? Aren't the guys in the cloth shop already putting out the fire? What else could it be?" The butler wanted the servant to shut up.
The lady is right in front of you, can’t you see that she looks unhappy?
The servant's face looked extremely ugly, but he had to say something!
"Miss." He looked at the young lady who was standing in front of him and tried to speak hesitantly.
Qian Yun stared at the boy and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
The servant said tremblingly, "Miss, several bodies were thrown into the front yard."
Qian Yun's figure flashed.
Another corpse, another corpse.
This time she completely fainted.
Cai Ling had dark circles under her eyes and hugged Qian Yun.
"Miss, ma'am."
The manager immediately asked Cai Ling to take the young lady to the backyard to rest.
Now the two masters in the family who are in charge have both fallen.
The master is outside and we don’t know when he will be back.
The person in the dark took a look at the scene in the yard and disappeared into the night in a flash.

The next morning, after breakfast, Gu Yao got on a carriage and went to the workshop.
While walking in a crowded area, Gu Yao heard discussions outside.
"Oh, who did the Qian family offend? The cloth shop was burned down again."
"Why didn't they burn other businesses? They must have offended someone."
"The Qian family is not a good family. They are very evil. The cloth they sell is so expensive. They earn their money by doing something dishonest. Anyone could take revenge on them."
"The cloth they sell is expensive, but no one would go there if they don't have money. If they go there, they will be scolded by the shop assistants. If they dress shabbily, they won't let them in. They won't cheat ordinary people's money. They only cheat rich people's money. I don't think it's done by ordinary people."
