Chapter 655: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
With a tiger on one side and a gazelle on the other, it was truly a bountiful harvest for them.
Seeing the satisfied expression on the official's face, Ma Lu couldn't help but grin.
Of course, the official was more than satisfied. He was extremely pleased, not only because they had successfully fought a big creature, but also because the Prefect was present today during the patrol.
Just a while ago, he had been anxiously searching for Shu Yu, but now he felt like his head was spinning from the pleasant surprise.
It was Shu Yu who reminded him, "Sir, let's first take the big creature and the gazelle to the Zhuangzi before anything else."
The official suddenly snapped back to reality and nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes, let's take them over first." The Governor and the others are waiting there.
He happily led the way, but Shu Yu noticed a subtle change in his expression.
As expected, just as they reached the entrance of the Zhuangzi, they saw Prefect Cheng and Qi chan coming out.
The official quickly said, "This is Prefect Cheng. He came here today for an inspection and happened to take a rest at the Zhuangzi. Quickly pay your respects to the Governor."
Everyone present, whether it was Ma Lu and the others or the onlookers, were stunned.
Shu Yu was the first to speak up, "Greetings, Prefect Cheng."
The others quickly snapped out of their daze and immediately put down the tiger and rushed to bow in respect.
Prefect Cheng asked them to rise and then looked down at the tiger lying on the ground.
Although he had seen many things in his life, it was still the first time he had seen such a... fresh tiger.
What surprised him even more was that besides the wounds caused by two arrows, the tiger seemed perfectly intact, especially its head and eyes.
This kind of intact tiger skin was quite rare.
Governor Cheng's eyes lit up, showing a hint of excitement.
While they were busy looking at the tiger, the official walked over to Ma Lu and the others, whispering, "You got lucky. If you had arrived just a few moments later, Prefect Cheng might have left."
Ma Lu was taken aback. His mind was quick, and he suddenly realized that Shu Yu had mentioned twice that they should return earlier and not delay.
With that thought in mind, his gaze involuntarily fell on Shu Yu. But the next moment, he saw the gentleman who had been following behind Prefect Cheng smiling and walking up to Shu Yu.
"Miss Shu Yu, long time no see. Do you remember me?" he asked with a smile.
Shu Yu immediately smiled back. She was afraid that he wouldn't remember her.
"Of course, I remember, Mr. Qi." She smiled and turned her head to glance at Prefect Cheng. "I didn't expect Mr. Qi to be working with Prefect Cheng now."
"Even I didn't expect that a young lady like you, who looks delicate and frail, would have the ability to hunt such a big tiger. I truly admire you," Qi Shan said.
Shu Yu waved her hand humbly. "Mr. Qi, you're too kind. There were six or seven of us in the group, and everyone contributed. It's not just my achievement alone."
Qi chan replied, "Is that so? I have seen the hunting trophies of your Ninth Squad. Just based on the two of you girls, it's not easy to hunt such big game."
While the two were talking, Prefect Cheng, who had finished looking at the tiger, walked over.
Once everyone returned to the main hall of the Zhuangzi, he looked at Shu Yu and said, "So, you are the Miss Shu mentioned by Mr. Qi?"
Shu Yu paid her respects to Prefect Cheng again and then shook her head. "Sir, actually, my surname is Lu."
Governor Cheng was taken aback and looked at Qi chan, who also wore a puzzled expression.
The official standing behind them slapped his forehead. It was a problem. He had forgotten to mention Lu's identity to the Governor.
He hurriedly stepped forward and explained the situation regarding Shu Yu and her family.
