Jiang Mingyue and Jiang Ming'an exchanged a glance, both tacitly thinking of a reason.
Maybe someone is secretly looking for that thing.
Jiang Ming'an sighed, "It's been too long. At that time, Nanxi City was under military control. Such a big event happened but wasn't recorded. I guess someone behind the scenes bribed the government."
Jiang Mingyue chimed in, "Or perhaps it's the government staging the whole thing."
Xie Yunhai stroked his chin in thought, "That also doesn't add up. If the military was after the Taotie Pocket Watch, they wouldn't need to be so high-profile. Wouldn't it be better to do it secretly?"
Jiang Ming'an: "How is it high-profile? They even disguised themselves as mountain bandits."
Xie Yunhai: "…That's true."
Jiang Mingyue pondered for a moment, "Brother Xie, what did you offer that beggar you guys met?"
Xie Yunhai's expression turned a bit strange, and Jiang Ming'an couldn't help but chuckle.
