Naruto: The Super Powerful - Passionate as Water

Chapter 29 Elder, refutation without evidence

"Apologise to me right now or I won't mind loosening your bones." Ji Tengchuan shouted, clenched his fist and made a crisp sound. His whole body exuded a fierce aura, which was infuriating to the frightened guys on the opposite side. A lot of pressure.

Faced with this situation, Ji Tengchuan knew very well that he needed to be strong and domineering, otherwise he would really be bullied as a weakling, and he had sworn an oath not to make Victorique sad again.

"Wait a minute!" Suddenly an old voice came out, and the descendants of the gray wolf who were originally in despair immediately stood up, separated from the middle, and made way for them.

"It seems that a very powerful person has arrived." Ji Tengchuan's mouth showed a trace of disdain. In such a poor mountain ravine, if he was not accompanying Victorique, or even if he came to invite him in a sedan chair, he would not even take a glance.

Sticking a green onion in the boar's nose, you really think you are an elephant?

To put it harshly, the person with the highest status here is just a village official.

"Young man, did you make the sound just now?" The old man had a thick white beard, and like a kind elder, his eyes were full of wisdom and he asked unhurriedly.

"Yes, the old gentleman seems to be an educated man. He slanders and speaks ill of others at will. Shouldn't he apologize?"

There was a cold glint in Ji Tengchuan's eyes. If this was not Victorique's hometown, he would never have said anything to ask the other party to apologize. He would have just gone up and beat the person into a pig's head before discussing.

The old man looked at the sharp look in Ji Tengchuan's eyes, thought for a moment and said, "But what if what they said is true? This girl's mother, Cordelia Gallo, is a murderer."

When Victorique heard this, her pupils suddenly shrank, and she unconsciously grasped Ji Tengchuan's sleeves. She never thought that the crime her mother committed would be murder.

"If you kill someone, it means that Victorique's mother killed someone, but you can't deny that Victorique is innocent, right?" Ji Tengchuan said without changing his expression. Killing a bunch of people doesn't matter. He loves his family and everyone, even if Victorique's mother is killed, Even if he leaves Gray Wolf Village, he won't even utter a single word of accusation.

The old man sighed, turned around and said to the young people: "Whoever said something bad about that girl just now should go over and apologize."

"Elder" the young people didn't want to say, but seeing the sharp eyes of the elder, they could only stand in a row helplessly, bowed and apologized: "I'm sorry."

Victorique nodded, indicating that he had forgiven them, and Ji Tengchuan did not want to make things too rigid, so he said: "In this case, elder, do you still welcome us?"

"This is a natural invitation," the old man said with a smile. After the group entered Gray Wolf Village, Ji Tengchuan learned that the elder was actually the village chief. Because Gray Wolf Village was isolated from the world and lived a self-sufficient life with little contact with the outside world, the village chief was actually equivalent to the king.

Along the way, the village chief began to explain the Summer Solstice Festival of Gray Wolf Village, as well as some customs and habits. The group finally arrived at an old castle.

A maid came out to greet her, but when she saw Victoria, she showed fear on her face. She looked at Victoria carefully and said in horror: "She looks exactly like Cordelia. Even though I was still a child, But I remember it very clearly.”

"Hermani," the village chief reminded, displeased.

"The sinner Cordelia has brought irreversible disaster to this house."

"Hermani" the old village chief said in a serious tone.

"I'm sorry." Hermione suddenly returned to normal. After apologizing, she immediately turned around and left.

"What's going on with this woman?" the three foreign tourists said with strange faces. No one likes psychopaths.

"I think this woman looks more like a murderer" Ji Tengchuan touched his chin and defined.

Everyone stared at Ji Tengchuan.

"Ah hahaha, I'm just kidding," Ji Tengchuan said angrily.

At the dinner table, the old village chief began to tell how the deceased, the previous generation of village chief Theodore, was murdered in his study. The time happened at 12 o'clock at night, and the person who was responsible for delivering water was the fifteen-year-old Cordelia.

"Why are you sure it's twelve o'clock?" Victoria asked her doubts.

"I and others saw Cordelia opening the lock and going in. At that time, I checked the time with my pocket watch, but for some reason, the testimonies of the people who were with me were different. Cordelia who entered the study immediately shouted He screamed, ran out, and hurried over, Village Chief Theodore had been stabbed to death with a short knife. For some reason, many gold coins were scattered on the floor." The old village chief recalled.

"Gold coins" Victoria asked strangely.

"Well, because gold coins are not used in the village, Village Chief Theodore always takes care of them. From that day on, Cordelia had a high fever and was bedridden. When her fever subsided, I, who became the next village chief, will take her to the hospital. Banished from the village." The old village chief said calmly.

"Exile old man, you said you drove a girl who has never been out of the village and is ignorant of the world out of the village," Ji Tengchuan said in a bad tone.

He never imagined what a tragic experience Victoria's mother Cordelia would have. A cute loli who didn't understand anything and was ruthless was driven out of the village by a group of big men. No need to think about it. Everyone knows that unless she is very lucky, she will be left to fend for herself.

"The sinner cannot be left alone, otherwise it will bring disaster to the village." The old village chief said helplessly.

"Old village chief, I want to ask, killing requires a motive and benefit. Why did Cordelia kill Village Chief Theodore? On the contrary, you seem to be the beneficiary." Ji Tengchuan looked at Village Chief Sergis with suspicion. , just say you are the murderer.

"Don't slander the village chief by talking nonsense." The young man next to the village chief immediately pointed his gun at Ji Tengchuan and shouted angrily.

Sergis' old face pulled back, and his face was full of black lines. Although the boy in front of him was talking nonsense, if someone with a heart heard it, he didn't know what to think.

"Ahem, I would never murder Mayor Theodore if I was an upright man," Village Chief Sergis said righteously, with a trace of annoyance and innocence in his eyes.

"Then why did you decide that Cordelia was the murderer? It's because she entered Chief Theodore's room and killed someone and then screamed, lest the world would not know that she was the one who killed and she also took the gold coins. You went in and you said that your time testimony is different from other people’s, which means that there are always people who lie, right?”

Ji Tengchuan retorted in one breath, leaving Sergis speechless.
