Chapter 108: Confusing and Complicated

The Village Chief's house was situated on high ground and was the best constructed in the whole village.

It was a two-story self-built house with a backyard that looked rather like a villa, only without the complex structure, and it appeared quite large.

Additionally, once inside, the difference from an actual villa became even more pronounced.

Xu Shuo set the little girl down on the ground and rummaged through a tall cabinet in the living room, finding some maltose, crispy twists, and other snacks to arrange on a plate.

The little girl sat obediently on a chair and her eyes brightened at the sight of the snacks; she consciously reached out her little hand and began to eat.

She looked like she often came here for treats.

Xu Shuo sat beside her, smiling affectionately as he watched her.

He had previously asked the villagers to send the Trench Coat Detective here to rest, but since the house was empty, he figured the latter must be gathering information elsewhere.
