The Eastern Continent Swordsman
CH. 82 – Duty Zhao Yunlei?

“So, just let it not linger. Who is behind all this?”

“Kakak, answer.” muttered one of the healers while tugging at the arm of the healer next to him.

The healer called the older brother looked confused to start his sentence. Finally, he tried to negotiate.

“Master, their death will not harm the Young Master. In fact, even our death will not make your life more profitable or more lost. Shouldn't we negotiate more casually?” said the healer with both palms fused, pleading for Zhou Fu to be willing to consider his proposal.

“Master-Master, as long as you know if I am not looking for profit or avoiding loss. I just want to put the curiosity in my head. The healers must have understood if being chased was curious it felt unbearable! So the point is, just answer my question!”

“No... Don't say, Brother. Before he promises to release us. Don't say anything!” pinta the younger healer seemed to warn the healer he called the elder sister not to rush to take a step.

“Master, don't you remember the crime laws that are in the Great Wall? Although I am not a citizen of Caihong, with the relationship I have, I can take this case to the court of Caihong?” Zhou Fu glanced at the two healers with a mocking and threatening look.

The healers were like being bitten by a red ant of his body, they tiptoed in shock as well as horror. The Caihong Nobles area applies special rules for the perpetrators of crimes in which to prevent the existence of crime and give a deterrent effect to the perpetrators, the perpetrators of the crime will be punished along with their nuclear family members.

“Young Master, don't continue. I will tell you the truth as it is.” the healer called the elder sister parried the hand of the healer next to her. He then stepped slowly toward the corpses of the noble family.

“Caihong noble territory is quite limited, Sir. There are thousands of people out there who aspire to become Caihong nobles. But look, this place is getting crowded with new noble families. Not infrequently, applications for registration of noble families will be rejected on the grounds of population density. And, a crafty person out there could order the status of a Caihong noble in this way. Eliminating the lives of noble families, to be replaced with their positions, the Physician” gulped, looking forward to what response Zhou Fu would give.

“Next…

The doctor sighed, resigned. “The Caihong immigration bureau accepts smuggling of royals, but not just the Immigration Bureau is involved. The practice of smuggling royals involves at least several parties at once, Young Master.” He added in response to Zhou Fu's brief response.

“Next…

“Ehm... Silver Dragon Association, one of the associations involved in this smuggling affair, Mr.”

“Continue..”.

“The association is one of those associations that are unlawful. Although several times it has been brought before the Caihong court, the association was not dissolved. On average they are only subject to fines, and the fines charged to them are much smaller than the losses they make.”

“In your opinion, why can it be so..?”.

“It seems like they have a strong backer, Young Master!”

“Why do they get support?”

“Of course, of course everything is for the sake of treasure. It's a game of powerful people who want to enrich themselves, sir…. Money turnover in the smuggling business of this nobleman involves a lot of money, of course.”

“I disagree completely. The doctor hid something else. I saw a doubt on the face of the doctor. Tell me the doubt!” Zhou Fu observed that the healer who answered questions from him seemed to be hiding something behind his honesty.

“Sst... Maybe it is time we say this,” the senior healer parried the soft hand of the healer who pulled his clothes.

“Young Master is a keen private. True, there are doubts and curiosity that continue to bother me. And, just so Young Master knows, I am saying this not to get forgiveness from Master, or anything like that. I just want to share the curiosity that has been very disturbing myself,”

“Just don't go around in circles!”

“Ehm, alright, Sir. Look, every time a family of the nation dies without cause, there will come a government envoy who asks for the bodies of the victims. The body was taken to a place that even to this day I do not know its exact location. The government envoy said the bodies would be scrutinized in the interests of the state. But, something is odd…

“What is it…?

“Not a healer from the Caihong Noble Physician Association was involved in the testing. Likewise, not a single scholar from Caihong High School was involved there. Reports related to the testing of the bodies have also never been leaked even though the Physician Association has urged. The Caihong Association of Scholars has also asked the government to involve them, but none of their hopes have been granted.”

“Lantas?” Zhou Fu still wanted to provoke an argument from the healer.

“If they hide enough, I fear they are doing activities that violate the norm, or they may be doing improper research. I don't know, obviously they quite often ask for the supply of human remains!”

Zhou Fu was stunned for a moment, one hand touching his chin and the other hand supporting his waist. He began to link the information with Pariarch Yuan Kai's suspicion of a group of imperial families. From the beginning he was also convinced that the matter of loss of life could not be just a matter of property. There are worse goals than enriching yourself.

“Master, which part of this Great Wall region might be the gathering place for the bodies?” Zhou Fu asked quietly, he knew that their current chat had led to a sensitive discussion.

“According to the suspicions of the Caihong Nobles Physician Association, the location of the collection of the body was in Yin Mimi Bay. The only bay on the Caihong mainland. The location is quite close to the headquarters of the Caihong Military. The bay became the entrance to Caihong second only to Maundo gate. If Maundo is opened to the public, then this bay is only the entrance of the military forces and the imperial family.”

Zhou Fu listened carefully piece by piece the information he got. It could be that the existence of the bay is not widely known because neither Shen Shen nor Feng Yaoshan has ever mentioned the existence of the bay.

“So in conclusion, Mr Physician considers the existence of suspicious activity in the area of Yin Mimi bay? So?”

“You could say that, sir. I said this because Mr. I mentioned that Mr. is not from Caihong. I am sorry that we have made a bad impression about the profession of the Noble Physician Caihong in the face of the Young Master. But you need to know, we are only carrying out our duties and not given a choice. Still, you have the right to regard us as irresponsible healers!”

Zhou Fu nodded his head slowly. He began to observe the two healers in front of him, since that night, of course the two healers will have the opportunity to be arrested by the government for leaking sensitive information.

“Gentlemen, thank you for the information. I am not one to forget to return the favor, even though I had a bad impression at the beginning of our meeting, but I am quite grateful for the information you gave me. Therefore.” Zhou Fu gestured for the two healers to come closer to his head, as if he wanted to give them enough confidential information.

After the two healers were close enough to Zhou Fu, Zhou Fu cleared his throat slowly and continued his sentence, “Lord, if at any time you feel your life is threatened, sir, get out of Caihong and invite your family to sail to Yimin island. Tell the elders on the island if it was Zhou Fu who gave permission to the Master to stay there.”

Zhou Fu chose Yimin island as the most appropriate destination for self-defense as it was now under the control of Baidong's elite forces. Zhao Yunlei told Zhou Fu the other day that a massacre by Shamo residents of Bingdao on Yimin island would have left the Bingdao Elite forces with more oversight of the island, so it can be ascertained that Yimin Island will now be more awake from interference.

The two healers nodded their heads slowly, the look in their eyes indicating that they were grateful enough to Zhou Fu. Zhou Fu finally allowed the healers to return to their homes.

“Have Zhao Yunlei been assigned here to investigate Yin Mimi bay?” suddenly, Zhou Fu frowned and began to deduce if his conjecture might have a point.
