"Don't worry!"

After a long while, Gu Shiyi replied with those words as she turned around and entered the inn she was staying.

She promised that she would absolutely not do anything rash. Since she assured him, she wanted him to be at ease.

Situ Jing watched as Gu Shiyi's figure disappeared into the darkness, and in that moment, all sorts of feelings flowed through his mind. Although they did not promise each other anything when they met, the tacit understanding between them allowed them to feel at ease with each other.

Looks like I have to quickly resolve this matter with Situ Yu.

The moment Gu Shiyi entered the room, she laid down on the bed by herself. At this time, the smell in the room had completely dissipated, and even if Xiao Zhi was suspicious, he would not be able to find any clues.

In the underground workshop, Situ Yu was alone in his exclusive laboratory, mixing together the explosives.

Logically speaking, he was only assigned according to the highest standards, so there was no way he would explode for no reason. However, it was possible that the workers might have made a mistake while they were being mixed together.

So in the end, Situ Yu gave up on rearranging the ingredients, and continued to do the same as before. He had always believed that the explosion of the temple was only an accident.

However, no one expected that on the second day, another explosives workshop built outside the city and used the name of the winery as a cover had exploded again.

Because of this, Situ Yu once again delayed his time to bring Gu Shiyi on a tour, and once again entered his underground workshop.

Although Xiao Zhi was curious about the fact that she was actually sleeping in Gu Shiyi's room, but because she had woken up and Gu Shiyi was sound asleep on the bed, the doubt in her heart was immediately dispelled. She could only repeatedly warn herself to stay awake and not let this happen again.

While Situ Yu was not around, Gu Shiyi took advantage of the time that she was not around to bring Xiao Zhi to the exploding location.

After that, the explosives workshop that Situ Yu hid on the ground exploded one after another for a few days. Situ Yu was completely furious, he busied himself day after day, not only did he have to calm the emotions of the blacksmiths, he also felt physically and mentally exhausted.

In order to find out the cause of the explosion, Situ Jing simply locked himself in the underground workshop's laboratory and didn't come out for a few days.

Gu Shiyi also took this opportunity to knock Xiao Zhi out once again. The moment Xiao Zhi fainted, Situ Jing also jumped into his room, making him jump in fright.

"Situ Jing, don't tell me that you're monitoring me at all times?"

Gu Shiyi was extremely speechless. Otherwise, why would Situ Jing appear in such a coincidental manner?

"How can this be a surveillance? At most, I'm just paying attention!"

Situ Jing raised his eyebrows and hugged Gu Shiyi tightly.

Since the last time they had parted, he had been thinking about her every single moment, so much so that when Situ Jing heard news that this subordinate had reported Situ Yu entering the underground, he threw aside all thoughts of coming to see Gu Shiyi.

But who would have thought, Xiao Zhi was staring at Gu Shiyi the whole time. Just as Situ Jing was about to attack Xiao Zhi, she took the initiative to attack him.

Gu Shiyi was caught off guard by Situ Jing's hug. She panted and her heartbeat quickened but her heart was filled with sweetness and satisfaction.

"Scene!"

Gu Shiyi leaned on Situ Jing's chest and muttered. If she could, she really wanted to stay in his arms like this for her entire life.

But no, they were both rational people who were more than sensitive.

After Situ Jing deepened the embrace, the two of them let go of each other at the same time as if they had reached a tacit understanding.

"You didn't come just to see me, right?"

Gu Shiyi raised her eyebrows. There was a reason behind why Situ Jing did things, and although it wasn't as beneficial as what Situ Yu did, he wasn't someone who would do useless things.

"What, you made me miss you, so I came to see you on purpose!"

Situ Jing also raised his eyebrows, although he was indeed here to see Gu Shiyi, but after seeing that Gu Shiyi had made her move on him, he had other thoughts.

"Un, I'll believe you this once!" It's good that you're here. I've made some new discoveries in the past few days, do you want to come along? "

With that, Gu Shiyi pulled Situ Jing to the kitchen in the backyard of the inn. Because of Gu Shiyi's actions, the people in the kitchen were sprawled on the ground, and no one would disturb them.

Situ Jing followed behind Gu Shiyi obediently the whole time. After she poured a pot of water into the water, he took out a small half of the grayish-black powder from his bosom and poured it into the water. The moment the powder entered the water, it was like oil falling into water and floated up.

"This is?"

Situ Jing looked at it for a long time, but still couldn't understand its meaning, but he believed that there must be a reason why Gu Shiyi wanted him to look at it.

"This is the remains of the explosives collected at the scene of the explosion. The reason for the explosion was not because the proportion of the explosives was wrong, but because there were some other things added within the explosives, because the amount was very small, it did not attract Situ Yu's attention."

After Gu Shiyi finished speaking, she turned and looked at Situ Jing, only to see that his frown had disappeared, and he already understood what was going on.

"Therefore, the main reason for the explosion was because of the inclusion of this item!"

Situ Jing rubbed his chin and nodded, something was flickering in his eyes as he looked at Gu Shiyi, and sure enough, it was his Gu Shiyi who had such fine observation skills.

"That's right, and there are two other factors that are required for this thing to explode."

Gu Shiyi took over Situ Jing's words and continued speaking. In this period of time, every single explosion that she had visited was not just collecting explosives remnants, the condolences of her loved ones were also not just for show.

"Oh, what is it?"

Situ Jing raised his brows, and the look in his eyes at Gu Shiyi became more and more stunning.

"Firstly, this explosive package must come into contact with the sunlight. Secondly, the time limit is not less than two hours."

So it was unknown whether or not Situ Yu's goal could be realized.

"Say, do you think there's any such thing in the explosive bag of the underground workshop?"

Situ Jing squinted his eyes. If there were more, then things would be much easier.

"Looking at it now, all the workshops on the ground were set up by Situ Yu to trick him. The goal was only to hide in the underground workshop. I've carefully checked, all the explosive materials on the ground, other than charcoal and saltpeter, do not contain sulfur.

At this point, Gu Shiyi had the same excited look on her face.
