I Help A NPC Become The Legendary Witch Chapter 406 – Zhao Jie (2)

Chapter 406: Zhao Jie (2)

After Zhao Jie tried his best to explain, Liao Zixuan nodded in his heart even though his expression did not change.

This information point could be found in the memories of the “last time” and “this time”.

Liao Zixuan remembered clearly that on the deck, when Vivian was being pestered by the female Astrologer with shining eyes, Zhao Jie had said it out of desperation in order to scare her off…

This sentence,”l am the one who has the right to be a friend of Lady Lu Zi.”

At that time, Liao Zixuan’s attention was also focused on the female Astrologer, so he did not realize that there was something wrong with this sentence.

But now.

Indeed, Zhao Jie had only just met Vivian at that time and hadn’t even said a few words to her. How did he know and be so sure of the relationship between the little girl and Luzi?

However…

“Go on, then?” Liao Zixuan did not stop there.

After all, Zhao Jie had only explained the first reason,” Why is it a little girl?” , and the second reason,” Why?”, which was also the ” purpose “, had not been explained.

“To be honest, Miss Vivian, I’ve told you before that I’m a merchant from Guili and the deputy manager of the Flying Birds Chamber of Commerce. These… Actually, I lied to you. There is no Flying Bird Trade Association in Gui Li, and I am not a rich person.

The truth is that I’m actually My business in Gui Li failed and I was in debt. I really couldn’t afford to pay it back, so in order not to implicate my wife and daughter, I had no choice but to leave the country to escape the debt.

“However, although I’m escaping from debt, I can escape for a while, but I can’t escape forever. I’ve always wanted to start a big business overseas and make a comeback. I want to earn enough money so that I can return to Guili and pay off my debt. To reunite with my wife and daughter whom I have not seen for more than ten years…”

Zhao Jie’s voice choked up as he spoke.

This was the truth of the ” thing ” that he had been suppressing in his heart.

One could see that the middle-aged man’s face, which had experienced many vicissitudes, was mixed with the sorrow and pain of not being able to return home and see his relatives.

Zhao Jie seemed to have aged a lot after he dug out the heaviest thing in his heart. He no longer looked like he was being interrogated by Liao Zixuan. Instead, he looked more like Zhao Jie himself… Repent?

” As a businessman in our country, we all know that information is equivalent to money. Whoever grasps the market situation in advance can bring home a full load of gold coins. The sudden departure of the Astorokis is a big opportunity in my eyes, a big business that can make money. Therefore, I bet all my money on it, bought an expensive ticket, and then carefully observed Master Luzi’s actions in secret.

Finally, hard work pays off. I found out that after Master Rosebud arrived in the Flame Domain, she secretly bought a large number of goods and stored them in the bottom cabin of the Astorokis. While it was docked, I secretly went there once, but the environment there was too bad. I felt dizzy after a few minutes. Secondly, Master Rosebud’s goods were all sealed extremely tightly. I had no way of knowing what was in the box.”

Zhao Jie’s eyes revealed a look of recollection. Liao Zixuan could also find evidence in it, and this time it was even stronger, indicating that Zhao Jie was not lying.

This was because the evidence this time was purely based on the experience of the “last time”.

Do you still remember? This time, because of him, Zhao Jie and Vivian were separated. But last time, Zhao Jie and the little girl saw the incident of the laborer and the supervisor together.

At that time, Zhao Jie had even told Vivian that he had been to the bottom cabin and described it in detail to the little girl. The wolf cubs at that time were a little strange. Zhao Jie had nothing to do, so why would he go to that kind of place?

Now, this doubt had been answered.

Of course, there was another new piece of information.

That Miss Luzi had stored a lot of goods under the cabin?

While Liao Zixuan was deep in thought, Zhao Jie’s voice was still ringing.

“Just as I was scratching my ears and cheeks and feeling anxious, I saw the scene between you and Miss Luzi. Therefore, I thought of getting close to you and building a good relationship with you. This way, I might be able to find out from you what the goods that Miss Luzi imported from the Flame Domain

“In this way, I only need to take out a loan to buy the same kind of goods as

Lady Luzi after I arrive at the Thousand Islands. I’ll definitely make a fortune!

When Zhao Jie said this, his expression actually became excited. It was as if he was imagining the scene of him hoarding goods in advance and then selling them along with the trend, earning a lot of money.

But of course, he soon became depressed and disappointed, leaving only sarcasm for himself.

“Sigh, I knew it. How could a distinguished guest who could be treated like that by Lady Luzi be a fledgling girl..

‘ So, Miss Vivian, as you can see, I, I’m just an opportunist. At most, I’m just a down-and-out businessman who plays tricks. I… I was blind. I really shouldn’t have schemed against you!

“I beg you, please let me go. I promise that I will never tell anyone about what happened today. I will never look at you again on the ship!

Zhao Jie cried as he begged Liao Zixuan, who was disguised as Vivian. In the end, he really cried.

‘ Miss Vivian, I-I really can’t die. Please spare me. Everything I said is true. You can look at my desk. There’s a pocket watch that I always carry with me. There’s a photo of my daughter in it. Her name is Xing ‘er. They’re still waiting for me in Guili. I…” I can’t die!”

After Zhao Jie finished speaking, Liao Zixuan walked to the table and found that it was indeed like this. After opening the pocket watch, there was a cute little girl who was about seven or eight years old. She had the standard face of Gui Li and looked quite similar to Zhao Jie.

Zhao Jie had indeed mentioned to Vivian that he had a daughter whom he had not seen for many years. She should be about the same age as Vivian now.

Pa da.

He closed the pocket watch and put it back in its original place.

Zhao Jie only felt his vision blur as he was lifted up from the ground. Even the rope that was originally binding him fell off.

“Thank you, thank you, little Vivian… Lady Vivian! Thank you, Lady Vivian!

How…”

“Alright.”

Liao Zixuan waved his hand a little irritably.

“Remember your last words. It’s best if you keep everything that happened just now in your heart. If you dare to say it out loud…”

Without needing Liao Zixuan to threaten him further, Zhao Jie fell to the ground with a thud, trembling as he knelt. He was completely scared out of his wits.

Creak…

Bang!

After leaving Zhao Jie’s room, he looked outside the cabin. It was getting dark and night had arrived. In the corridor, Liao Zixuan frowned.

After interrogating Zhao Jie, he could almost eliminate Zhao Jie as a suspect. However, this was not a good thing because…

The trail was broken.

If it wasn’t Zhao Jie, then who poisoned them?

The poisoner must have poisoned a specific food, knowing that Vivian would definitely eat it. This food could only be the ” Spicy Boiled Fish ” that Zhao Jie had recommended to them. But other than Zhao Jie, who else knew about this information?

Or could it be…

He was wrong, but it wasn’t poison?

Thinking about it this way, there were indeed many suspicious points. For example, if he was really poisoned, why didn’t the system prompt him? What kind of poison could make him, a forbidden demon, unable to resist and detect

What was even stranger was that, logically speaking, poisoning was because one was not strong enough to defeat the enemy on the surface, but to possess a poison that could even fool the ” system “, one could imagine the level of the poison. Shouldn’t such a being be able to kill Vivian with just a flick of a finger? Why would it have to go through so much effort?

The more he sorted it out, the more Liao Zixuan’s head hurt. His brows furrowed even more because there were too many things he didn’t understand.

However…

At least this time, he, the little girl, and Liao Zixuan had been staring at the game panel and were in a normal state. Now, there was only one thing he had to do.

Wait for the rabbit.

Since he couldn’t find any clues, then let’s…The clues would come knocking on his door!

He wanted to see if the intruder in his memory would still appear after he had intervened!
