2274 Chapter 2274-no partners
The next time he encountered such a situation, he would just not say anything. If he didn’t say anything, then don’t cry. He would just take out the knife and put it on the other party’s neck.
“Tell me, do you have any other accomplices in the forest? It’s best if you tell the truth. If you lie, you’ll lose your head.” Bai Yi spoke in the calmest tone he could, and his sword had already left a bloody gash on Yunzhu’s neck.
“No, there’s no more.” Yunzhu wanted to shake his head, but he did not dare to move. His voice was a little shrill.
“Fourth young master, let’s go back! Bring him back to the temple and let third miss interrogate him!” Bai Yi kept his sword. He still felt that it was better to leave the matter of interrogating people, especially the suspects in murder cases, to third miss.
It was not that they felt that Gu en could not do it, but it would probably be daybreak by the time they returned. They would have to pass on the results of the interrogation and bring them back to pass on the message. Why bother?
Bai Yi was not curious about the case at all. He used to be the leader of the thousand blades sect and had seen too many private things. Later, he followed Lu Zheng and helped him collect all kinds of information. In fact, he was already tired of it and was not curious.
In their line of work, they had a thorough understanding of human nature. It seemed that there was nothing in the world that could pique their interest.
To Bai Yi, all he wanted now was to find a wife, have a child, and live a stable life.
In the past, he did not even dare to think of such a thought. It was only after he followed Lu Zheng and came back from the West to follow Gu Xin that he dared to have such a thought.
Looking at the current situation, it was all worth it.
As long as the Gu family was safe, he would not have a bad life.
Bai Yi did not mean to entrust his life to the Gu family. He just felt that the Gu family was loyal and he did not want to fight for anything alone.
Of course, it might not be the case if they had children in the future.
However, he believed that once he had a wife and child, whether it was staying with the Gu family or by Gu Xin’s side, or doing other things, his relationship with the Gu family would definitely not be estranged.
The two of them left the forest with Yun Zhu. Before they left, Bai Yi searched the forest alone and did not find anyone else.
……
At midnight, the Ying family’s Army arrived at Xi Yun temple and Gu Xin immediately ordered a search.
The monks and devotees in the temple could not sleep. They were all nervous.
Gu Xin specially observed the Feng family from the courtyard and she was more and more certain that there was something wrong with que ‘er.
She didn’t find anything from Butler li and Xiao Shunzi, but these two people were definitely suspicious. After all, miss Feng San and miss Feng Si had died from poisoning, and the poison was on the pastries.
It was just that caretaker Li’s emotional management was too good, and no problems could be seen at all.
They did not make any discoveries until daybreak, but the monks and devotees in the temple already knew that Gu Xin had deduced who the murderer was. It was just that the murderer had not been caught yet.
By the time Bai Yi and Gu en brought Yunzhu back to the xiyun temple, it was already dawn.
The monks in the temple had also started their morning classes.
Last night, the host came to ask Gu Xin. Although there was a case in the temple, they could still carry on with their activities as usual, so the morning class still had to continue.
Although Gu Xin did not suspect the monks in the temple, she was still worried.
It was better for everything to go as usual than to hold them back.
However, no one was allowed to leave. The several entrances and exits of the XI Yun temple were all guarded by the Ying family Army.
