Mo Shang frowned. He had always felt that something was amiss, but he had not been able to figure out what was amiss. At this moment, Li Ruo understood the crux of the matter.

He had always felt that something was wrong with the attackers, but now he realized that they had planned an organized attack in advance.

In other words, leaving a country was only their first place of attack, and there were still nine other countries after that. However, every one of them could be the next place where an accident happened, and this time's attackers, their goal, was most likely to destroy the harmony between each country and achieve some sort of unspeakable secret …

"General Li, the tiger camp is out in full force and is spread out to protect the officials at the various relay stations. In addition, go to the palace and report this to royal brother. Tell him to increase his guard and stand guard. After that, seal off the entire city!" Xuanyuan Mo quickly passed down the order, but it was already too late.

The second attack was on the east side of the city, in a small and insignificant country. Currently, the three countries were established, and the remaining seven small countries were all subordinate to the three countries.

"About a quarter of an hour before the general arrived, there was an explosion. Fortunately, we heard about the accident at the other houses, so we were on high alert. There were no casualties." The manager's face was pale. It was obvious that he was frightened. He stood in front of Xuanyuan Mo and reported on what had happened.

With a quick glance, Liruo curled her lips helplessly. Such a big person, how could he be so timid? Furthermore, he was the person in charge of the inn. She really didn't know how he became such a big person.

"What do you think?" Xuanyuan Mo asked Li Ruo, while the others were also looking at her with anticipation.

"From the looks of this matter, it has proved that this was a purposeful attack to destroy the relations between the various countries. If we do not investigate this matter clearly before the convention and give an explanation to the world, it will most likely lead to something bad!" Liru frowned and continued.

"So far, I have already obtained a few characteristics of the attackers. I can look for them in this regard!"

"First, male, 8 feet tall, tall and sturdy. Second, he has a certain level of martial arts foundation and is good at changing his clothes. It's hard to tell when he's hiding in the crowd, but he likes to wear dark colored clothes. For example, black, blue …"

"He likes to wear a hat, the outline of his face should be very hard and unyielding. He often has a straight face and doesn't speak well. Also, behind him should be a team of no less than ten people …"

"Moreover, what I want to say is that the attacker this time is not the same person who was at the Li Kingdom Inn!"

"That's right, this is what I find strange. The one from before is relatively capable in doing things, but this one seems much more meticulous. His strength is very small, and he looks more like a woman!" Mo Shang followed up with his own point of view.

He should be around seven feet tall, which is very different from the man from before. He might like to read books, he might like to play the zither, or he might be engaged in a profession which is a teacher. His personality is delicate, and he is gentle.

"..." This person is obviously more difficult to find than the previous one! " Mo Shang pondered for a moment. Although he did not know where these conclusions came from, he could tell from looking at her that she was not lying. Her words could easily be believed.

Although Li Ruo's voice was soft, everyone remembered that it was already midnight. The breeze was chilly, and when Li Ruo unconsciously pulled at her clothes, she realized that there was no collar to cover her neck.

Following that, she felt warmth behind her, accompanied by the unique scent of a man. A black robe appeared on her body.

Why did Xuanyuan Mo become so kind?

"Don't look at me with such adoring eyes!" Under the gaze of the crowd, Xuanyuan Mo felt a little awkward. This was indeed the first time he was concerned about someone, and moreover, it was the woman he hated the most.

However, looking at Liru's shivering appearance, he unconsciously did so without a thought. Thus, at this moment, even if he wanted to regret it, it was already too late.

"Otherwise, I will say that you have fallen for me!" The corner of Li Ruo's mouth twitched. As expected, Xuanyuan Mo was more likeable when he didn't speak. The moment he did, the evil in his bones would be thoroughly exposed.

No, when Xuanyuan Mo did not speak, he was like an ice sculpture and did not attract anyone's attention.

Thinking about that, Liru could not help but roll her eyes, she really wanted to throw his coat back, but thinking about that cold wind just now, she decided to just continue putting it on. Well, it's not like she'll die even after being flirted with a bit. Anyway, she wouldn't lose a piece of meat.

"Is everything done?" It was getting late. If they kept going like this, they would be exhausted to death. There were too few clues, so it was useless for them to stay here. They might as well go back and rest first to face the bigger rain tomorrow.

"It's about time!" Everyone packed up their belongings. It had been four hours since the second attack, and the city had been peaceful and peaceful. They had already done all the necessary preparations, and it seemed that the moment the attackers heard the sound of the wind, they would stop for the night.

As for tomorrow, that was not certain.

"I'll see you tomorrow if you don't mind!" It had been almost a day and a night since they had met. The two of them hadn't had a proper conversation, and now that they were going to separate, Su Lin's eyes once again became moist and her voice started to choke.

"Su Lin …" Liru's movements were a little hurried, she didn't even realize that her cloak was missing.

Li Ruo shouted a few times, but still felt that this was not enough to express her thoughts. She blinked, and suddenly made a decision.

"Let's go!" Then, without waiting for Su Lin's reaction, he pulled her along and ran away.

"…" The remaining two men continued to look at each other.

During the three years he had been married to Su Lin, they had always been in love with each other. Su Lin was a knowledgeable woman who could massage his back and shoulders when he was tired, and could even go down to the kitchen to make him some food that he had never eaten before. At home, she was a typical good wife and mother, an extremely good wife. As the saying goes, up in the hall, down in the kitchen, Su Lin had already occupied it.

Even though this was a family marriage, and he had married her, he was very satisfied with this wife of his. Even though this was a family marriage, he was very satisfied with this wife of his, and even though Su Lin had been an integral part of him all these years, he had slowly fallen in love with her.

He had always wondered who it was that lived in Su Lin's heart, making her so determined to die. But today, he could tell himself with absolute certainty that the person Su Lin would never forget was called Li Ruo. Now that they had reunited after so long, was it true that he had nothing to do with her?

If it was a man, he might still have the right to argue, because the person guarding Su Lin all these years was Mo Shang. However, if it really was a woman, how could he fight for her?

Sometimes, he could also feel the feelings Su Lin had for him. With his many years of experience solving cases, he had become very sensitive, he could even be sure that Su Lin really did like him, but her feelings for him were far inferior.

At the very least, whether he was happy or sad, it would not affect Su Lin at all. However, everything she did and said seemed to affect her emotions at all times.

He raised his head to look at Xuanyuan Mo and realized that Xuanyuan Mo was also staring blankly at the departing back. He suddenly felt a little sour.

Just a moment ago, he was still thinking of how Xuanyuan Mo would look when he was moved, but if the guess in his heart was true, he would rather Xuanyuan Mo never understand.

"Cough, cough." Xuanyuan Mo, shall we continue with this case? " Mo Shang cleared his throat. Xuanyuan Mo only knew how to fight, so it was definitely wrong to tell him about the case. Moreover, they had clearly prepared to return to the residence to sleep, because there was actually nothing more to say. But now, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep even if he went back. It would be better to just wait here. At the very least, he still had a worry in his heart.

"Why do I feel like there's something wrong with the two of them!" Xuanyuan Mo furrowed his brows. After looking at them for a long time, he still could not find anything wrong with them. He only felt that their relationship seemed to be truly extraordinary.

"…" Mo Shang felt helpless. There was a saying that was called 'playing the zither to a cow'. Talking to Xuanyuan Mo was probably even more difficult than playing the zither to a cow.

That was true. For someone who didn't know what love was like, these kind of questions would make things difficult for him.

"Mo Shang, are they closer than the average sisters? And the hug they had when they met today? Could it be that it's too tight?" Xuanyuan Mo had said all of this out of pure curiosity. Did they not know that hugging someone too tightly would make them feel uncomfortable? Or did women and men not feel uncomfortable because their bodies were different?

"…" Mo Shang felt even more bitter. This was not only different, but also too intimate. He had been married for three years to Su Lin, but he had never hugged her like this before.

He had been waiting for Su Lin to fall in love with him.

But, could it be that he couldn't wait any longer?

"Oh right, you just said, what do you want to say next?" Xuanyuan Mo bent down and picked up his robe, patting away the dust unhappily.

He was a man of cleanliness, but not dust, and his obsession was with women. Previously, he would always feel annoyed whenever he saw a woman, including the first time he saw Liru. That woman who was so thin, so hungry, and not even taller than his chest, he found it annoying.
