"Zhou Jihuai is back."
"No wonder." Song Jinyan squinted his eyes, quietly changing his mind.
The person he had sent to investigate in Clear Water County reported that Zhou Hengyang had arranged for someone named He Changming to obstruct them. And their investigation had already been disclosed to Zhou Hengyang by He Changming, so, having been discovered, they had no choice but to withdraw.
Zhou Hengyang was a local tyrant in Clear Water County, having been the "local" for years. If he didn't allow it, those people would find nothing even if they stayed.
He himself and Songshan were too busy to leave, especially as the end of the year drew closer, with more matters to attend to.
This time, Xu Xiyi returned unexpectedly, and he had wanted him to help out, among other things, to make a trip to Clear Water County. Now that Xu Xiyi was under Zhou Jihuai's command, it was no longer a good idea to involve him.
"What help did you just say you needed?"
