Chapter 982

This sudden turn made Wang An startle. Thinking Zhang Zhang Shuya suspected him of being involved in this case, he told the truth:

"I've been at home, training eagles. Isn't it my younger brother's first day of school today? So I came to send him to school."

Upon hearing the words "training eagles," Zhang Zhang Shuya said with some surprise:

"Training eagles? Is that the two eagle eggs you dug up before we came back last time?"

And don't say, Zhang Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian really were sisters at heart.

Because when Sun Nian heard the words "training eagles" before, she had the same expression and said the same thing.

So, without waiting for Zhang Zhang Shuya to press him, Wang An told her about raising two more golden eagles, including the purpose of raising them to catch gorals.

As soon as Wang An finished speaking, Zhang Zhang Shuya's eyes lit up and she said:

"Goral blood is a good thing. I've heard that it not only treats hidden ailments but also prolongs life."

Wang An smiled upon hearing this and said:

"With my godfather's status, has no one ever sent goral blood to your house?"

Zhang Zhang Shuya nodded and said helplessly:

"Someone sent some once a few years ago, but he gave it to his sick comrade-in-arms. Your godfather also said this thing is used to save lives, and it's the same whoever drinks it."

Wang An blinked upon hearing this, not knowing what to say.

No wonder Zhang Zhang Siyuan could rise steadily to the peak of Bingcheng; such a person's vision was not something ordinary people could compare to.

After a while, Zhang Zhang Shuya looked at Wang An and said:

"Little An, eldest sister has never asked you for anything. If you can hunt a goral, you must give some to me and Little Nian."

Wang An was startled and just about to speak when he heard Zhang Zhang Shuya continue:

"Before Little Nian and I retired, our bodies had developed quite a few ailments, and they haven't improved in the past two years. A doctor in Bingcheng said that if we had goral blood, the root of our illnesses could be cured."

After saying this, Zhang Zhang Shuya frowned and continued:

"It's strange to say, but my father entrusted his friends over at Mount Zhangbai to purchase this thing, and there hasn't been any news until now. It's as if this thing has gone extinct."

Hearing Zhang Zhang Shuya say that she and Sun Nian were ill and needed goral blood to cure it, Wang An couldn't help but be stunned.

It was mainly that looking at these two, they didn't look ill at all.

However, since Zhang Zhang Shuya said so, it must be true, and Wang An didn't doubt it.

So, Wang An nodded heavily and said:

"Yeah, don't worry, eldest sister. As long as I can hunt a goral, I will definitely send the goral blood to you."

Although he said so, what Wang An never expected was that with the energy of Zhang Zhang Shuya's family, it would be so difficult to get some goral blood.

From this, one could see how scarce the goral really was!

But thinking about it, it was normal, because in the Northeast, the legends about the goral were all sorts of things, and besides Zhang Laoda, the earliest could be traced back to Nurhaci.

It is said that Nurhaci, that old bastard, was the first person to hunt a goral and the first to benefit from it.

It is said that goral fur is warmer than sable fur.

It is said that goral bones have more medicinal value than Northeast tiger bones.

It is said that goral meat is a more high-end nutritional supplement than ginseng.

It is said that the most precious goral blood is a miracle drug for treating injuries and illnesses, even more powerful than sika deer placenta paste.

It is said that goral horns are even more valuable and awesome than sika deer velvet and antelope horns.

It is said that in the Qing Dynasty, the goral was a rare and exotic beast that the Jilin General's Office at Mount Zhangbai ordered hunters to capture every year but never did, and it was something that the dead old woman Cixi always longed for but never got.

Besides these, there are many other legends about the goral, but those can no longer be called "legends"—calling them "myths" might be more appropriate.

After Wang An finished speaking, he saw Zhang Zhang Shuya nod and say:

"Don't force it too much. If you can hunt one, hunt it; if not, forget it. By the way, what did you come here for today?"

Only then did Wang An have the opportunity to bring up the matter of Wang Wang Guaizi's subordinate, the one called "Qiangzi."

After Zhang Zhang Shuya heard it, she immediately shouted outside:

"Director Liu, Director Liu, come in for a moment."

After Zhang Zhang Shuya shouted, a middle-aged woman walked in.

As soon as Director Liu entered the office, Zhang Zhang Shuya said:

"Tell Team Leader Zhou and the others, regarding the case of the meat processing plant workshop director's murder, have them investigate in the direction of the workers in the workshop. Mainly check which workers he punished recently, and then check the interpersonal relationships of these workers."

When Zhang Zhang Shuya said this, Wang An couldn't help but interject:

"Bureau Chief Zhang, mainly check the female workers."

Wang An was now a joint defense officer, after all. When outsiders were present, it was more appropriate to use official titles, which was why Wang An didn't address Zhang Zhang Shuya as eldest sister.

Zhang Zhang Shuya glanced at Wang An upon hearing this and continued to say to Director Liu:

"Right, mainly check which female workers he punished recently. Also, tell the person on duty that someone might come to surrender, and then dig out a bit more information and lock him up for a few more days."

One had to say, Zhang Zhang Shuya was truly too indulgent toward Wang An; she was simply responsive to every request.

After Director Liu went out, Zhang Zhang Shuya asked Wang An very suspiciously:

"We all think it's robbery-murder, why do you insist on thinking it's a revenge killing?"

Zhang Zhang Shuya's question directly stumped Wang An.

It was mainly that if Wang An hadn't been reborn and happened to know about this, how would he know whether it was robbery-murder or revenge killing?

After pondering for a long time, Wang An bluffed:

"Seeking wealth and taking a life are two different things. If you're caught seeking wealth, you'll be locked up for a few years at most. If you're caught taking a life, you'll definitely have to pay with your life. Anyway, if I were seeking wealth, I definitely wouldn't hurt anyone's life. Besides, the day before yesterday wasn't payday for the factories. How much money could that workshop director have on him when he went home after work? Killing someone for that little money is purely bullshit."

Although Wang An was talking nonsense, his words were not without reason.

Zhang Zhang Shuya nodded slightly in approval and then asked Wang An:

"Then are you still training eagles these days?"

Wang An shook his head and said:

"I've barely trained them. From now on, I'll just take them out to catch some small animals every now and then."

Hearing Wang An say this, Zhang Zhang Shuya said:

"That's fine. Starting tomorrow, come to the Bureau to participate in training. Practice grappling in the morning and shooting in the afternoon. You should follow along and practice."

Upon hearing about shooting practice, Wang An raised an eyebrow and said very arrogantly:

"Eldest sister, there's no need to practice shooting, right? I feel that with my marksmanship, there's probably no one who can teach me."

Zhang Zhang Shuya was very clear about Wang An's marksmanship. In terms of marksmanship alone, neither Zhang Zhang Shuya nor Sun Nian could necessarily keep up with Wang An.

So Zhang Zhang Shuya nodded and said: "Yeah, then you don't need to practice shooting."
