Liang Jian: I have a canteen

"This. This"

The driver seemed to be thinking, but seemed really hesitant.

Xu San took out a few more French francs and handed them to the driver.

The driver did not take the call, but picked up the cart, turned around and ran away.

After running a few steps, he finally said, "Master, you gave me enough. I know the place you mentioned. It's not far. I can get there in a few steps."

Xu San took the money and said, "Since you don't want to accept it, then come to my house for dinner tomorrow."

The driver was about to refuse, but Xu San said, "If you have children, bring them with you."

"I'm not married yet!"

"That's great. I don't have a wife to control me. I'm very free." Xu San paused, "Can I drink?"

“I can drink, but not a lot.”

"As long as you can drink! Come have a few drinks with me then."

"Okay!" the driver agreed, then turned a corner and drove into darkness.

There were no street lights in this area and it was very dark. Even with Xu San's eyesight, he could only barely see a dozen meters ahead.

The driver stopped at this moment and said, "Master, I can't see the road ahead clearly. I can't run anymore."

Xu San jumped down holding the basket, stretched his arms and legs, and asked, "Is the place you mentioned just ahead?"

"Go a little further, there is a very small alley. Hmm," the driver thought for a moment and said, "It's narrower than an alley, only about a foot wide, barely enough for one person to pass through. Go through it and you will reach Area C."

"Okay! I'll go look for it and take a look inside." Xu San picked up the suitcase and walked a few steps back to the driver, saying, "I can take a look by myself. If you have something to do, go ahead. If you want to wait for me, go to the small market just now."

"I'll wait for you here. I'll find a corner and squat down. It's so dark, so I won't attract anyone's attention." The driver said. "Then be careful. If you are discovered, just say you are a reporter from the Asahi Shimbun and the driver of Edogawa Conan's car."

"Edogawa Conan? Is that your name?" asked Chifu.

"Yes, I know your name."

"My name is Zhuge Qingming."

"Zhuge, descendant of Wu Hou?" Xu San asked in surprise. He had lived two lives as a human being, but this was the first time he had seen someone with the last name Zhuge.

"I don't know about that. My father never told me about my ancestors."

"Then we should ask the old man, maybe it's true?"

"My father has been away from home for almost ten years, and I didn't even see him when my mother passed away." Zhuge Qingming's tone was a little lost.

"Hey, I'm sorry~" Xu San said something to comfort him, "Maybe someone from Wu Hou's family has a special mission. Maybe you'll understand when you see him again."

After saying this, Xu San quickly disappeared into the unknown darkness with his suitcase.

Zhuge Qingming stared at the direction where Xu San disappeared. After looking for a while, he shook his head, turned around, pulled the cart, and found a corner to squat down.

In the darkness, Xu San followed the direction Zhuge Qingming had told him to go, but not long after he walked, he was blocked by a row of houses.

After careful observation, Xu San indeed saw a passage between the two houses.

The passage is very narrow, only about one foot wide, and if a person is a little fat, he may not be able to squeeze through.

Xu San walked over, tried it, and confirmed that he could pass by turning sideways.

I raised my hand and looked at the time. It was already past eight o'clock. It wouldn't be long before the day was over. (End of this chapter)
