Chapter 1565 The Truth (1/2)

Maung Kyaw Zin moved away from the door and gestured for Li Du to enter.

His wife was at the door, looking at the two of them with a worried expression. Li Du turned and smiled. ”Don't overthink. We are just here to discuss a biology problem. Look, I even brought a bottle of wine.”

Saying that, he lifted up the brown bottle.

After entering, Li Du scanned the small house with his eyes. It was simple and clean inside. There was only a bed and a table. On the table, there was a box. Other than those, there was nothing else.

Maung Kyaw Zin said, ”Feel free to sit anywhere you like. Usually, nobody comes here. Hence, we have no special seat for you.”

Li Du said, ”No need for that, Chief. You are too polite. I'm not here as a guest. I'm here to get an answer.”

Just as he finished speaking, Maung Kyaw Zin suddenly turned impatient. He pulled his hair with both his hands and yelled, ”What answer? What answer? I don't know, I really don't know. Is money so important? Are you guys willing to do anything for money?”

Li Du said, ”I don't understand what you mean. I'm not here for money.”

Hearing that, Maung Kyaw Zin laughed coolly. ”If I believed your words, I'd be a fool! You're not here for money? Didn't you come here for that jade mine? You dare say you're not here for profit?”

Li Du stood straight and said, ”No, I'm not here for that jade mine. I'm here to find something. And I want to find that thing not for money. I have to keep the motives secret, but it is definitely not for money!”

He had spoken convincingly and was obviously not guilty. Maung Kyaw Zin froze.

Looking blankly at Li Du, he asked, ”You are really not here for the jade mine?”

Li Du said, ”Did you see how many bodyguards I have brought with me? You should know I'm not in need of money. I'm at Wooku Town to see if I can find something that is useful for me. I'm not here to start a mine to make money.”

”Besides,” he added, ”What use would it be if I find a jade mine? Will the government of your country allow me to run a mine? The government would not allow anyone to get a new mine like this. They would take over its ownership!”

Maung Kyaw Zin looked at him blankly again and said, ”Oh, I'm wrong. This time I'm wrong.”

Li Du asked, ”What exactly happened? Also, what's with these big ants?”

Maung Kyaw Zin did not speak. With his hands on his head, he continued to zone out.

When Li Du started to get impatient, he opened the cover on the bottle, wanting to let the ants out.

Seeing that, Maung Kyaw Zin was shocked and shouted, ”Don't let them out in my house, don't touch them…”

However, it was too late. Li Du had turned the bottle upside down to pour out its contents.

Maung Kyaw Zin let out a scared yell. It looked as though he was extremely afraid of the ants in the bottle.

However, none of the ants were released. Only some turbid, viscous liquid dripped down. It dropped on the table, slowly corroding and making a hole in the wood.

”Where are the ants?” Li Du could not understand.

Maung Kyaw Zin heaved a sigh of relief and sat back down on his bed. He mumbled, ”Thank God, thank God. Grandpa was right. Thank God, they can't be too far from the queen ant…”

Frowning, Li Du asked, ”What exactly happened? Please be clear, chief.”

Maung Kyaw Zin waved his hands. ”Nothing to do with you, Boss Li. This has nothing to do with you. As you are not here for the jade mine, I suggest that you leave this place as soon as possible. This place has become dangerous.”
