The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1745: Chapter 1745: The Notice Has Been Posted

Doctor Mi nodded, ”Don’t worry, I understand.”

He returned to his room to change his clothes, and then excitedly went out.

After all, he hadn’t been out for a long time, and Doctor Mi felt somewhat excited.

At this moment, a few people gradually appeared on the streets, among them the woman Shu Yu encountered, and many who could not endure living under the terror created by the mountain bandits. They all headed towards the county office together, hoping to inquire about the situation.

Unexpectedly, at the entrance of the Office, those guarding outside were not the usual officers but rather some... unfamiliar faces. Moreover, among these unfamiliar faces, there were several individuals with disabilities, missing a hand.

Despite their physical impairments, these people carried a solemn expression, making it difficult for others to approach them casually.

Everyone stood outside, whispering to each other, with no one daring to step forward and ask.

But Doctor Mi, after observing for a moment, realized that these people were likely the victims rescued from the mountain bandits’ hideout that Lady Lu had mentioned.

Seeing their condition, Doctor Mi secretly sighed. They must have suffered greatly, those rebels were indeed malicious.

While thinking this, Doctor Mi suddenly noticed a familiar face emerging from the county office.

He was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly pushed through the crowd to walk in, ”Yuan Gui, Yuan Gui, why are you here?”

Yuan Gui followed the voice, saw that it was Doctor Mi, and was slightly surprised. He raised his hand slightly and said, ”Doctor Mi, please wait a moment, I’ll first post the notice.”

Doctor Mi widened his eyes, Yuan Gui of all people is posting the notice?

Yesterday, Yuan Gui followed Shu Yu to the county magistrate’s private residence and then helped Lu Wu with his tasks there.

Yuan Gui had stayed in this county town for a few days. Although not very familiar, he was clear about the basic streets and a few landmark locations. Yesterday, Xia Yi came to the county town ahead to find County Magistrate Cheng. Later, the pursuing Lu Wu and others were unfamiliar with Chenggu County, so it was Yuan Gui who led the charge.

Afterwards, he was also the one who led Lu Wu and others to the abandoned mansion to assist Meng Yunzheng with the aftermath.

Until this morning, Yuan Gui hadn’t had a chance to rest.

However, he was full of energy, because he knew that Jiang Kuanyu was dead, the scoundrel who almost cost him his life here; now he lived while the other suffered the consequences.

An hour ago, Lu Wu, with a few people, returned to the black market. Yuan Gui still wanted to go with them, to see Jiang Kuanyu’s corpse with his own eyes, but since he hadn’t fully recovered, Lu Wu refused him.

Still, there was a shortage of manpower at the county office, so Yuan Gui planned to finish his tasks here before returning.

It was unexpected to meet Doctor Mi here, Yuan Gui quickly posted the notice and then approached Doctor Mi. However, the latter had already gone ahead to see the notice content, and the other citizens standing hesitantly at the entrance also crowded forward.

Pushed out, Yuan Gui, ”...”

Forget it, he would wait a little longer.

Doctor Mi quickly scanned the notice, indeed as Lady Lu had said, the notice did not disclose all the details.

It only mentioned that the mountain bandits had all been arrested, so everyone need not worry and could stop staying indoors.

However, General Huang had already engaged with the mountain bandits outside the city. To prevent them from taking the opportunity to hide in Chenggu County, and to avoid further harm to Chenggu County’s citizens, the city gates would remain temporarily closed until General Huang’s victory allowed a resumption of passage.

Finally, there was the issue of County Magistrate Cheng colluding with the mountain bandits.
