The first day passed just like that. It seemed like there were no clues. On the contrary, it was like a ball of thread that had been thrown into disarray, becoming more and more chaotic.
The case seemed to have reached a point where it could no longer develop. In the next two days, there was no progress at all. By the fourth day, A Huan was extremely frustrated. If he could not find out tomorrow night, Mu Chen would definitely die.
That night, as he sat in the lobby of the tavern, Jiang Shiyu stared blankly at the sky as she watched the moon rising into the sky.
"Boss, lodging!"
When the boss heard this, he immediately burst into laughter, "Inside... "Please!" At this time, the people who came to stay were either strangers or people who didn't know what was going on. In any case, the owner, who hadn't opened his shop for several days, ran over to take a look. When he got closer, he shook the cloth and turned back angrily.
"Meow meow …" Little White jumped onto the table and obediently laid in front of A Huan.
A Huan was all smiles as he hugged Little White and started to play with the cat.
Yao Yao walked in and sat in front of Jiang Shiyu, "I can help you."
Jiang Shiyu asked coldly: "Help me what?"
Yao Yao pointed to the room, "Resolve this matter."
"How?"
"This matter is none of your business. I just need to say it out loud." Yao Yao had a relaxed expression. This was a piece of cake to her.
Jiang Shiyu stared straight ahead, "And then?"
Yao Yao laughed, "Then we'll go to the China together."
Jiang Shiyu stood up and looked down at Yao Yao condescendingly, "I will go to China, but I won't go with you."
How could Yao Yao hear these words? She stood up in anger and pointed at Jiang Shiyu: "Who do you think you are. If it wasn't because you saved Little White, I wouldn't have helped you."
Jiang Shiyu turned around and returned to her room, leaving behind a sentence as light as a feather: "I don't need your help!"
"You!"
When Jiang Shiyu's figure had completely disappeared, A Huan rolled his cat and said indifferently: "Only by acting like this will he not forgive you."
Yao Yao thought for a bit, lowered her head and asked A Huan: "Then what should we do?"
A Huan laughed shamelessly, "Are you begging me?!"
Yao Yao snorted: "In your dreams!"
A Huan said: "In your dreams, it's fine. If you lend me Little White for a few days, I'll tell you."
Yao Yao looked at Little White who was in A Huan's arms leisurely, thought that he would not mistreat Little White, and said while enduring the pain, "Fine! But only for three days. "
A Huan laughed: "Sure, deal."
Jiang Shiyu did not know what kind of agreement the two of them had reached, but the next morning, the moment she went downstairs, she saw Yao Yao sitting by the table, laughing: "This is the food I brought, it's very tasty."
Jiang Shiyu looked at the table, which was filled with all kinds of food that she had never seen before. He turned around and called the owner of the restaurant over with a bowl of white porridge and said, "It's not good to eat too greasy this morning."
Yao Yao's face twitched, but she did not say anything.
Today was the last day. Jiang Shiyu thought about going to the forest for another look, and Yao Yao followed along. According to A Huan's words, he followed right after.
The forest was still the same as before, there was no change at all. This time, Jiang Shiyu checked even more carefully, and even looked at the markings on the trees. After looking at the hundred and eighty trees, she finally saw a mark.
Jiang Shiyu revealed a smile, and called A Huan and Yao Yao who were still looking around, "Go back."
The two of them were confused, but they obediently followed behind.
The Soul King Realm cultivator went to the inn in the evening and found Jiang Shiyu waiting for him.
"Sit down, may I ask you a few questions?"
That person said in a serious tone, "Time is almost up. It's useless for you to fight with me."
Jiang Shiyu laughed: "That's not it, we just need to understand a few things first."
That person sat down and nodded. "Regardless, when the time comes, I will take your life."
"Does the young master only go out by himself?"
That person carefully thought back for a long time before saying, "No, I usually follow one or two people."
Jiang Shiyu said in understanding, "But that day, the owner of the inn said that he was the only one."
"According to my guess, Young Master brought a group of people out to hunt for a beast, but the magical beast did not catch the beast, and instead sent itself in. His followers must have planned this beforehand and set up some traps, and in the end, the beast was captured."
"After his death, that person must have disguised himself as Young Master Ling to come here. Wait until midnight, then he would pull the corpse over without anyone noticing. Then, he would be arranged to look like this and throw himself out."
The man pointed out the incongruity: "My son has always been with him about what he did."
Jiang Shiyu said: "The key is here, he used himself as bait and placed the Beast Catcher at his feet, but he had already placed the Escape Tool on a tree to the side, when the Beast Catcher was opened, he immediately escaped, causing Young Noble to be trapped inside."
The man bowed his head in thought for a moment, then called two people in to find the man who had gone out with his son.
After a while, the two returned and replied that the person from that day had participated in a mission today and had lost his life!
That person's expression changed. This time, he was dead without a proof. He could only listen to this kid in front of him making things up!
Jiang Shiyu laughed: "Die!"
Jiang Shiyu continued, "I've already given you the answer, whether you believe it or not is up to you."
That person knocked on the table, as though he was recalling Jiang Shiyu's words, and at the end he slammed the table: "Brat, if what you say is the truth, then it's over, if not, then I'll bump into you in the future, and be careful of your life!" He waved his sleeves and left.
Yao Yao came out from the backstage and clapped her hands: "Mu Chen, you are awesome!"
Jiang Shiyu drank a mouthful of tea with trembling hands, and slowly said after a long while: "I lied to him, but I actually haven't found out anything about it at all."
Yao Yao was taken aback, "You... "I thought you..."
Jiang Shiyu laughed and shook her head, "You think I have found out? I'm not that good, and there's so little to find out. Today, I saw a prop in the forest and had an idea for this plan. "
Yao Yao said: "Then if your follower from that day did not die, wouldn't your plan be exposed?"
Jiang Shiyu shook her head again, and said with a heavy tone: "There is one thing that I am telling the truth, the monster trap is a human, not a beast."
Yao Yao still wanted to ask something, but A Huan jumped out from the door and anxiously said: "Little White ran away!"
Yao Yao replied: "What's there to be afraid of, it will come back by itself."
As if it was responding to Yao Yao's words, Xiao Bai jumped down from the roof and screamed a few times. It sounded slightly different from before, as if there was something in its mouth that was unclear.
Yao Yao was puzzled. "Little White?"
Little White wagged its tail, walked slowly in front of Yao Yao, and spat out something.
