A quarter of an hour before Su Mu and Wang Dong were to knock on the door.

When the fifteenth moon was full, the moonlight was as cold as frost as it unrestrainedly scattered across the roof tiles of all the houses in Wu City. Two black shadows stood at the eaves of the inn.

"Your Highness, will the two of us capture him and let the suspect escape?" The hidden guard that was sent back to report that one of the suspects is a burly man who seems to be a martial artist. Bao Fusheng could not help but be worried. He felt that Lin Yi's act of personally capturing him at night was too dangerous. After all, he was a person of noble status, so he could not be harmed in the slightest.

Lin Yi, who was dressed in dark night attire, smiled subtly when he heard this, "You can't?"

As a man, Bao Fusheng felt aggrieved that he had been questioned. He was clearly considering Ye Zichen's safety. If it weren't for the fact that the two of them had grown up and could no longer practice martial arts together like when they were young, giving each other punches and kicks, Bao Fu Yun really wanted to punch Lin Yi.

"I can, of course, but I'm worried about your highness." Bao Fu Cheng gritted his teeth.

Lin Yi withdrew his smile and instructed calmly, "Take that female owner hostage first and have her come forward. Afterwards, seal her mouth and comfort her."

"Why did you capture the female owner?" Bao Fu Cheng asked in confusion.

Leaping down from the roof, Lin Yi no longer explained and proceeded according to the plan.

"Sir, are you there?" The Lady Boss lightly knocked on the door and asked.

When Wang Lin heard the female owner's voice, he exchanged a glance with Su Mu. Neither of them let down their guard.

Wang Dong gripped his sword tightly and threw a short dagger from his waist to Su Mu. The dagger drew an arc in the light and seemed extremely cold.

Then he walked slowly to the door and answered, "What is it?"

"Customer... You... The store seemed to be … "As a famous thief, could you help me take a look?" The Lady Boss stuttered as she looked at the two black shadows beside her. Her body couldn't help but tremble.

After staying here for several months, Wang had decided to stay here because the inn was close to the city gate. The Lady Boss was a simple and honest widow, thus she decided to stay here. Other than going downstairs to order food everyday and not interacting with the Lady Boss almost every day, she never talked too much about the private matters of the guests.

Tonight, a thief had appeared out of nowhere.

Even from behind the door, Wang Tong had already guessed that someone had kidnapped the Lady Boss. He shouldn't have opened the door to meddle in other people's business, but his nature was still a loyal and loyal man.

He turned his head and looked at Su Mu. After making his preparations, he opened the wooden door of the inn.

In the nick of time, Lin Yi who was outside the door was the first to barge into the door, quickly and quickly hacking towards Wang Yu, but Wang Yu nimbly dodged to the side, which made Lin Yi realize that Wang Yu was not ordinary, so he stepped back and signaled Fu Yun to grab him.

The purpose of this trip was to prevent alerting the people of the city that he could take down these two suspects. Lin Yi might not be able to beat Wang Lu in a one-on-one fight, but he might cause too much trouble, so taking them down quickly was still better.

The bag that had been controlling the Lady Boss received a message and knocked out the Lady Boss who was standing next to him.

In the end, his hands could not even withstand four fists. Not long after struggling, Wang Yu was pressed down to the ground by Bao Fu, unable to move.

"What do you mean?" Su Mu knew that he and Wang Ke wouldn't be able to escape. He secretly hid his dagger in his sleeve and asked.

The two of them came in the dark of the night. There were no soldiers following them, so it was obvious that they were not the group that was pursuing them. He had kidnapped the Lady Boss without harming her, just so that the two of them could open the door. If that was the case, then what they wanted was not wealth.

At this moment, the masked Lin Yi couldn't help but feel admiration towards this petite man. Unexpectedly, he didn't panic at all and indifferently said, "I need the two of you to come with us."

He didn't know where this line of work went, but Su Mu's mind quickly recalled who these two masked men were.

It was a place of no return, where danger was averted.

Su Mu decided to stake it all, "Are you here for the Zhu Family's case?"

In this remote part of the Wu City, the soldiers and soldiers who had been pursuing her for months had not found them and had never made a move. Her father had always been neutral in the court, and there was no way for any faction to rescue them.

The Zhu Clan's case was the only thing that could allow them to make a trip to this peaceful Wu City.

Having been guessed at the purpose of his visit, Lin Yi knew in his heart that the two people in the room could not possibly be the culprits of this case. One was extremely skilled, while the other was extremely sharp and intelligent. Even if they combined their skills, they were still unbeatable, but it was impossible for them to stay in Wu Cheng City foolishly after committing the crime. They didn't seem like suspects at all, but more like … Hiding from someone.

Seeing that the leader of the masked men had yet to speak, Su Mu knew that his guess was correct. He moved from the corner of the bed to the window and continued speaking neither humbly nor arrogantly, "If the two of you really came for the Zhu Residence case, I can very clearly tell you that my brother and I are not suspects. It is just that they are hiding from their enemies here. "

They didn't hurt the people, they didn't kill them, and they came here for the murder of the Zhu family. They must be the people in charge of the investigation, or they must be spies hired by the Zhu family in the martial arts world." However, if they dared to come in and arrest them, then they must have been tracking them down for a long time and had full confidence in coming in.

Wang Dong said that someone was following them during the day, so it seems like it was this group of people.

"If you say that you are not the murderer and that words are useless, then why should we believe you?" And why do you always go to the Zhu Residence's entrance? " Seeing that Lin Yi did not say anything, Bao Fu Sheng, who was at the side, could only ask.

Su Mu saw them say that they were going to let go of each other, and then looked at Wang Dong's painful expression, "I have a way to make you believe me, but please let go of my brother. He won't fight again."

When Bao Fusheng heard this, he raised his head and glanced at Lin Yi. His hand slowly loosened its grip.

After he was released, Wang Yu immediately retreated to Su Mu, protecting her behind him.

Only then did Su Mu speak slowly, "Firstly, if the Zhu Residence case was really caused by me and my elder brother, then we definitely wouldn't have left the Zhu Family without taking the rich money. Secondly, he would not be so foolish as to not find a way to escape even after the city gates had been sealed when the two lords came down to investigate the case. The third is the Zhu Clan's case. I am also observing it and am certain that it was done by someone within the Zhu Clan. "

As her voice faded, the small room suddenly fell into a strange silence. Qing Hui entered the room through the window and landed on Su Mu's hair. Her face was as pale as paper and her thin lips were tightly pursed. There was an indescribable feeling.

Lin Yi gazed at Su Mu with a sharp gaze and said in an extremely low tone, "Work together to investigate this case thoroughly. I will protect the two of you."

The secret battle, the enigmatic trade, had all melted into the full moon of the setting sun, and silence had begun to sprout.
