Chapter 535: Karma

After Lu Shu had gathered the Spirit Qi, he immediately left satisfied. Since it was his own younger cousin, he should take care of him.
In this time and age, it was rare for someone to do good deeds and yet not be remembered. The Heavenly Network would acknowledge itself for its efforts.
After settling this problem, Lu Shu calmed down. He called for Little Fury. “Make sure you correctly identify the culprit who stole the Chinese chives. Don’t harm the innocent because of a false accusation.”
Little Fury patted its chest and wrote in the book. “No worries, it’s definitely correct.”
The situation at the Chinese chives plantation had reached the ears of the Liu village. The son of the village head had described the situation in an extremely lifelike manner. Liu Pingsheng, the son of the village head, had insistently stated that there was something wrong with the Chinese chives plantation. They had to make a report to the Heavenly Network!
But when they were asked for the details of the situation, they could not give an explanation.
After all, if such a frightening and suspenseful story was linked up by a Super VIP, it didn’t feel as reliable…
Liu Pengsheng had made a report to the Heavenly Network in the day. But as soon as Xi Fei heard that it was related to Lu Xiaoyu and Lu Shu again, he was too lazy to even care about it. He had even wanted to transfer Liu Pengsheng to another department to check whether he had any problems…
In Xi Fei’s eyes, Lu Xiaoyu was very obedient. How could she cause trouble?
But Xi Fei suddenly felt that something was not right. When Xiaoyu was alone at home, there was not much mischief… it couldn’t be that Lu Shu had returned, right?
They were at a loss when it came to Lu Shu. People had cried and vowed to avenge him when they thought that he had died, but in the end his death was fake…
According to Zhong Yutang, they knew that the Lu Shu now was very strong. As for exactly how strong he was, this was cla.s.sified information.
This made Xi Fei and his colleagues very uncomfortable. Someone who had often caused trouble had suddenly become so strong. He even had to report to their Security Team. Their prospects were bleak.
And his exact strength was cla.s.sified. What was this…
Thinking about it, when Lu Shu had received the rank of Major, he was a Cla.s.s C. Now his cla.s.s was kept secret… there seemed to be no difference whether it was kept a secret or not.
But since it was cla.s.sified information, they would not leak their guesses. They still had this much discipline.
But Xi Fei and his colleagues found it hard to believe that this Lu Shu, who the entire school was not fond of, had really reached such a high level!
That night, Lu Shu secretively brought Lu Xiaoyu up the mountain. Little Fury led the way.
The entire Liu village was planting strawberries in large greenhouses during this season. The residents of Luo City also liked to come to this remote city to have one day of fun at a farm.
They would pick strawberries with their own hands. In the afternoon, they would drink chicken soup in the farm houses. To the residents of Luo City who loved enjoying their free time, this kind of day was very satisfying.
The village was not too far away from Luo City city. Drive along Route 301 and you would reach the village in less than half an hour. This was also why the sales of strawberries was very good.
Lu Shu whispered, “With this, we will have a year’s supply of strawberries… we will use the s.p.a.ce to equip ourselves for strawberry picking. Little Fury… just eat as much as you can. Since you don’t have s.p.a.ce to equip, you can’t bring much back either.”
Lu Xiaoyu looked down upon Lu Shu. She was not lacking money now. She had just bought two kilograms of strawberries yesterday and each kilogram had cost over 30 dollars.
In reality, Lu Shu was thinking, since Little Fury had taken revenge, would he still need to continue to take revenge? Was he such a petty person?
He was.
Lu Shu was still upset over this point. The Chinese chives that had been cut away could not come back, so they had all disappeared. It was too late for them to even do anything.
This sounded unpleasant, but these people did not know that he had faked his death. If Xiaoyu was really an ordinary girl, how could these villagers bully her right after his death? He was here to unleash his anger.
You don’t have to respect others. But at least have some respect for a martyr, who had sacrificed himself to protect your homes and defend your country?
If it had not been in the countryside, these people would have possibly died by now. Then what use was there for their strawberries?
“Count every single family that has stolen the Chinese chives! Take his entire greenhouse’s worth! Those who steal my Chinese chives must be punished, even if they are far away!” As Lu Shu spoke, his expression was full of murderous intent. “Go!”
…
The next morning, the villagers whose strawberries had been stolen woke up to attend to their greenhouses. Upon entering their greenhouses, they almost burst into tears. “Where are my strawberries?!”
Every family had around four to five greenhouses. Whole greenhouses of strawberries had disappeared. Who was the immoral criminal who had done this? Yesterday, the strawberries were still beautiful and plump and now they had all disappeared.
A villager suddenly ran over. “Were your strawberries stolen?”
The others lifelessly nodded their heads. “What, has yours been stolen as well?”
The villager said with exasperation: “We can’t do anything about it if the strawberries have been stolen. But which idiot bit my strawberry and left it like that? There was still a strawberry hanging there! But upon closer look everything was gone!”
The surrounding villagers felt stifled. What on earth was this operation?! In reality, Little Fury was very troubled upon receiving Lu Shu’s orders. Although it was very greedy, but the problem was that it could not each so much. It might as well eat a bite out of each strawberry. This squirrel did not even care whether the strawberries had been washed or not…
“From Liu Pengsheng’s distress, +666…”
“From…”
Everyone had a guess of who exactly the culprit was, but they did not dare to debate about this. Even the two magical beasts, Big Cat and Naughty Pig, did not dare to go out and play. They stayed at the Chinese chives plantation and guarded the crops.
But this time, Liu Pengsheng could not take it anymore. He brought his family, which was made up of around a hundred people, to Beimang mountain. He wanted to make a complaint to the Heavenly Network base. More than ten greenhouses’ worth of strawberries had disappeared! The Chinese chives plantation had to pay back!
After Xi Fei had received the complaint, he confirmed one thing… Lu Shu had really come back.
He followed the villagers down the mountain. When they approached the village, they saw Lu Shu happily eating the strawberries. Little Fury, who was beside him, used its tiny paw to grab a strawberry and chewed on it. It was even carrying three or four more strawberries.
When the villagers saw Lu Shu eating the strawberries, they were filled with anger. They forgot Liu Pengsheng’s words that Lu Shu had sacrificed himself for the country. Even Liu Pengsheng himself was seized with terror. How was he still alive?! There could not possibly be ghosts in the light of day. This meant that Lu Shu had not died!
A group of villagers surrounded Xi Fei and his colleagues. They pointed at Lu Shu. “It must be him who stole our strawberries! It is definitely him!”
A lady lay on the floor and cried loudly in distress. Upon seeing this, Naughty Pig rolled over, wanting to push up the lady. The lady stood up again in shock…
In reality, some people only dared to blend in with the crowd, as they knew that in an orderly society, those who did not argue would benefit.
No normal person would be able to reason with livestock. Whoever Naughty Pig wanted to push would most likely get pushed…
