Chapter 880: The Red Flame on His Hand Is a Birthmark
Gu Qiaoqiao was startled, a red flame-like mark in the palm?
She suddenly remembered the mark in Xiao Wen's palm.
Could this person be related to Xiao Wen, or perhaps, related to the Mysterious Dragon Box.
Gu Qiaoqiao's heart sank, then a glimmer of hope rose.
However, with someone as astute as Master Fong here, Gu Qiaoqiao couldn't let Master Fong see her emotions.
That would easily lead to problems.
Master Fong is a person with a strong sense of alertness, just like Qin Yize.
Although Gu Qiaoqiao knew she didn't have any issues, she had to admit that some of her actions indeed exceeded what an average girl could handle.
And she really didn't want Master Fong to become suspicious of her.
Gu Qiaoqiao grasped her hand by her side, took a long breath inwardly, then frowned in thought for a moment, asking with furrowed brows, "Master Fong, the person that Master Wang just mentioned, who you picked up before the Spring Festival, has memory loss, and a red flame-like mark in his palm; does he have a Southwest accent?"
Master Fong looked at Gu Qiaoqiao, silent for a moment, then slowly nodded, "He has a Southwest accent."
He didn't ask how Gu Qiaoqiao knew about it.
Because Master Wang was present, some things he couldn't let Master Wang know, although he was also puzzled why Gu Qiaoqiao knew that person had a Southwest accent.
He was sure Gu Qiaoqiao didn't know that person.
Gu Qiaoqiao's clear eyes shifted slightly, a look of joy appeared on her face, and she said to Master Fong, "Master Fong, quickly take me there; that person could very well be a far relative of my family, saying they came to the Imperial Capital to seek relatives. When we received the letter, he had already arrived in the Imperial Capital, but has not shown up until now, and Great Grandfather has sent people to search for more than a month but still hasn't found him..."
"Been looking for more than a month?" Master Fong asked with a frown.
"Yes, the red flame on his hand is a birthmark, but unfortunately, being a distant relative, the only thing the letter mentioned to Great Grandfather was that the relative was coming to seek refuge with us in the Imperial Capital, without even mentioning his name, or even describing his appearance, so Great Grandfather has had a hard time looking..."
Gu Qiaoqiao feigned distress as she spoke.
Her words were a mix of truth and falsity, actually, if one were to closely verify, they wouldn't withstand scrutiny.
But given this person was detained by the Public Security, there should be suspicion of a crime.
Maybe it was because of the red flame mark in his palm, or maybe because he didn't know who he was, his speech was incoherent and inconsistent...
However, last night he was in the kitchen the entire time, there was simply no time to go to the front, but being in the kitchen the whole time doesn't prove anything, this inside informant could hide in any corner of Lijing Ho.
Appearances can be deceiving; Master Fong couldn't vouch for this person.
But because he was the one who picked this person up, he had to explain the situation to the Public Security and also get a handle on what exactly was going on.
If it truly was his doing, then he absolutely would not show mercy.
But he hadn't expected that halfway through, Gu Qiaoqiao jumped out, actually saying this person could be her far relative, even though what Gu Qiaoqiao said seemed to not withstand scrutiny.
But Master Fong knew that this little girl Gu Qiaoqiao was incredibly smart.
She never did meaningless things, since she said this person might be a far relative of her family. Then maybe this person truly is connected to the Gu Family.
Master Fong gave Gu Qiaoqiao a deep look, then walked briskly towards the door...
