Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
How could this person be so reckless? How could he be so stupid?
Gu Qingxue’s heart ached uncontrollably. She could not bear it, but at the same time, she was furious!
Her dream was not wrong. Rong Han had escaped this time, but the person who wanted to harm him was still at large.
No matter what, she had to capture Gu lingyue and find out the truth.
At the same time, Liu Yi brought ten secret guards and rushed to the small building in the south of the city that Gu Qingxue had mentioned.
The small building looked like it had not been visited for a long time. There were large patches of weeds growing in the courtyard, and the doors and windows of the small building were tightly closed. There were no signs of anyone living here.
“All of you, go up together and investigate this entire building. Don’t miss out on any clues.” Liu Yi instructed the secret guards under him with a solemn expression.
“Yes!” The ten secret guards nodded in agreement. Then, they rushed out from their original spot and quickly entered the small building to search it seriously.
The small building had five floors in total, so it was very easy to search. In less than 15 minutes, ten secret guards came back to report.
“Reporting to Young Master, we did not find any clues. There are no signs of living activity in the building, and the furniture upstairs is covered in dust. It seems like no one has lived here for a long time.” At this time, a short-haired secret guard reported.
Looking at the small building in front of him, Liu Yi’s expression was solemn. He was not in a hurry to leave. “Since Miss Gu said that this place is suspicious, we can’t let it go easily. Get ready and serve some smoke.”
“Yes.” After hearing this, the secret guards quickly began to prepare. They put a special kind of plant ash they brought with them into the iron basin, placed it in the courtyard and the small building, and then lit the plant ash.
The moment the plant ash was ignited, a pungent smell that was so pungent that one could not open their eyes swept out. The smoke filled the entire building almost in a breath.
Even the well-trained secret guards could not bear this kind of torture. They quickly left the smoke-filled building and waited in the courtyard.
Time passed quietly. After 15 minutes, Liu Yi, who was standing in the courtyard, finally heard a faint sound coming from the small building.
“Cough, cough, cough, cough! Mother, hurry, hurry up and go!” The man’s pained voice was accompanied by a cough, which immediately attracted Liu Yi’s attention. He quickly gave his men a look.
The secret guards quickly ran straight to the small building. After breaking through the door, they saw that the floor of the hall on the first floor had been torn apart, revealing a hidden cellar. At this moment, a young man was pulling a middle-aged woman out of the cellar. Both of them looked extremely miserable.
The secret guards swarmed forward and quickly subdued the mother and son. They brought them out of the small building and to Liu Yi, who was in the courtyard.
“Let me go! Who are you? Why did you arrest me?” The young man had not taken a bath for a long time, and his body was emitting an indescribable stench. The original snow-white robe on his body was covered with dust and mud, and his disheveled appearance looked like a beggar on the roadside.
After the middle-aged woman was brought out of the small building, she had not spoken a word. She did not look any better than the young man, also covered in mud..
