Strange Case Reveals New Clues, Strange Carriage Appears in Changzhou at Night
Lan Luohe's appearance here was not a coincidence. After meeting Zhao and Bai three years ago, he had been traveling around. Recently, when he arrived in Jiangning, he happened to meet his old friend Jiangning's daughter and had a good chat with her.
When Jiang Ningnu learned of her youngest son's whereabouts from the letter from Kaifeng Prefecture, she did not say anything, but she was worried. At this moment, he had met Lan Luohe and learned about their previous relationship, so he asked him to help them.
As for Zhan Zhao's title, it was not widely spread, but more or less some people knew about it. The reason why Lan Luohe said this was purely to tease this somewhat tender young man and ease the anxiety in his heart. Although Lan Luohe did not know exactly what had happened, he had been a doctor for many years and his ability to read people's expressions was perfect. He could tell that Zhan Zhao was anxious. If this continued, he would probably get sick, so he thought of this method.
After the joke, the case continued to be investigated. After Lan Luohe listened to the two of them describe the whole story, he re-examined the corpse and found an important clue: The murderer of these two people was still related to the red flame!
Speaking of the red flame, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were very curious. Even with their eyesight as martial artists, they couldn't find any similarities between the wounds on Wang Guangling and Fang Zijing's bodies and Zhan Zhao's wounds. How did Lan Luohe judge?
In response, Lan Luohe specifically told the two of them about the Red Flame. Red Flame had many kinds of weapons. As killers, their trump cards were also different. However, their weapons had a common characteristic. No matter what weapon they were, there would definitely be barbs on them that would cause more injuries.
Of course, there were some other characteristics, but this was enough to make the two of them think of the two dead people in Xiangguo Temple. At that time, Bai Chen had told them that although the two victims had been killed by a single sword, there were inconspicuous signs of strain on their wounds. Seventh Sword's sword had a mechanism that could cause such wounds. This was also one of the evidence that Bai Chen had determined Seventh Sword to be the murderer.
From the looks of it, these few cases were all related to Hongyan!
However, Red Flame was just an assassination organization. They would not kill people for no reason. There must be a mastermind behind them. The question now was, who would hire Redflame to kill people? Were these murders related? What was the motive of the mastermind?
The two of them could not think of anything. They could only give all the clues and guesses to Zhang Long and let him go back and tell Bao Zheng. Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang went to Zhan Tianlu's mansion to see if they could find any clues.
Zhan Tianlu's cunning was as they had expected. He showed enough surprise and regret for the death of Wang Guangling and his wife. He also had a perfect alibi. Zhao and Bai couldn't get any clues, and they didn't want to spend more time with this person to avoid unnecessary trouble, so they bid farewell and left.
……
Unlike the two of them who were busy, Ding Yuehua had been living here happily during this period of time. She even had a good relationship with Mother Zhan. It could be said that she was like a fish in water. She had already revealed her identity to Mrs. Zhan on the day she arrived, and Mrs. Zhan liked her very much. Therefore, when Zhang Long was about to leave, she chose to stay without hesitation.
As for Mother Zhan, she seemed to have already treated the little devil as her future daughter-in-law. Although neither Ding Yuehua nor Zhan Zhao were interested in each other, with the little devil's playful personality, the unsuccessful Emperor's bestowment of marriage had long been exposed by her, causing Bai Yutang to grit his teeth for a long time. This was because the little devil's narration clearly portrayed him as a big villain who kidnapped Zhan Zhao, causing everyone in the Zhan residence, especially Mother Zhan, to look at him strangely.
Bai Yutang could have explained this clearly, but he did not say anything out of the ordinary. He would only occasionally use his sharp eyes to kill Ding Yuehua, that little devil who only wanted the world to be in chaos. What surprised him was that Zhan Zhao didn't explain anything! This realization made him very happy, very very happy.
There was an answer in his heart that he wanted to shout out, but he ignored it time and time again. He could only distract himself by playing with the cat.
However, he didn't know that the pressure he felt now would make him regret it in the near future. He regretted it so much that he almost couldn't help but want to…
Unfortunately, no one could predict the future.
……
White Jade Hall could participate in these daily banter, but Zhan Zhao had always been troubled by another matter, which was the death of his father.
Apart from Bai Yutang, he didn't tell anyone else about this matter, not even Mother Zhan. He didn't want his mother to worry, so he had been secretly investigating what happened fifteen years ago. Now that he suddenly found out that An Jianqi might be Red Flame's man, he couldn't help but wonder if his father had also died at the hands of Red Flame, or even if it was the same person behind these cases.
Unfortunately, there were still no clues.
In addition, it was about whether he would take over the family business.
Worries came one after another, disturbing Zhan Zhao day after day. Although Bai Yutang saw all of this, he didn't have any good ideas at the moment. He could only think of ways to make him happy. It was a pity that Fifth Lord's own troubles had not been resolved, let alone the knot in Zhan Zhao's heart.
In fact, other than Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, there was another person who had seen all of this, and that was Mother Zhan. How could a mother not know her son's struggles? However, Mother Zhan had always thought that her son would not have any future in Kaifeng Prefecture, and Zhan Zhao did not say what he thought. This made Mother Zhan mistakenly think that Zhan Zhao was just thinking too hard and did not have too much nostalgia for Kaifeng Prefecture.
Moreover, she hoped that she could keep her son by her side so that she could be more at ease.
However, she didn't voice her thoughts. Both mother and son remained silent. In addition, the case that they had just encountered had diverted everyone's attention, resulting in today's stalemate.
Putting aside his annoying thoughts, Zhan Zhao was, after all, a bodyguard who was known for his seriousness. Soon, he forced himself to put other things aside and concentrate on sorting out the clues of the case.
It was now known that Wang Guangling and Fang Zijing had been with Zhan Tianlu since they came to Nanyang. The relationship between the two parties was still unclear. The government had specially asked Zhan Tianlu to understand the situation under Zhan Zhao's suggestion. According to him, these two people were only here to discuss business with the Zhan family and temporarily stayed at his place. As for the actual situation, he didn't talk much about it, but his intuition told him that Zhan Zhao and Zhan Tianlu weren't telling the truth. Zhan Tianlu even looked at him suspiciously when he went there.
At the same time, Zhan Tianlu had some doubts.
"Zhan Zhao? Why does it have the same name as the kid I told them to kill? Could it be that the kid didn't die? Impossible! Even a martial arts expert would have been crushed to pieces after falling off a cliff a thousand feet high. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, it was impossible for him to be in perfect condition…Could it be that he really had the same name?”
……
The case had been investigated for four days, but there was still no result. However, Zhan Zhao was unwilling to give up. He still went to the scene to check every day. Lan Luohe and Bai Yutang also went with him every day in the beginning, but they were too lazy to go later on.
No one knew that just as they let down their guard, a crisis had quietly approached them...
That night, Zhan Zhao was walking on the street when he suddenly saw a strange group of guards of honor. It didn't look like a funeral or a wedding. There were only countless people holding a palanquin slowly walking on the street with wooden expressions. He wanted to avoid them, but he didn't expect those people to walk in his direction as if they had targeted their target.
"Who are you?" Zhan Zhao asked. At the same time, he smelled a strange fragrance. It was like an orchid and a musk. Zhan Zhao hurriedly held his breath and circulated his qi, but he did not feel any discomfort.
At this moment, the ceremonial guards slowly stopped. A voice that was neither male nor female came from the large sedan chair.
"Is that Zhan Zhao from Kaifeng Prefecture?”
How did they know about him? Zhan Zhao was slightly shocked and tightened his grip on the Great Ravager.""It's me! Who exactly are you? How do you know my name?”
The person in the palanquin snorted coldly and did not answer. Suddenly, the entire honor guard moved again without any warning and walked straight forward. Zhan Zhao instinctively dodged and watched as these people seemed to leave slowly, but in fact, they left quickly.
Who exactly were these people? Zhan Zhao didn't dare to act rashly before he figured it out, but he didn't want to let them leave just like that, so he followed them.
However, with Zhan Zhao's lightness skill, he couldn't catch up to those people. This made him extremely surprised. Seeing that those people had walked out of the city and disappeared into the deep forest, Zhan Zhao could only give up on following them and rush back to the Zhan residence.
As soon as he arrived at his room, Zhan Zhao realized that the light in his room was on. When he pushed open the door, he found a white mouse that had taken over his nest.
"You're back so late. Did you catch a mouse?”Bai Yutang laughed.
"Isn't there one in front of us?" Zhan Zhao made a rare joke. He knew that this guy was worried about him and was deliberately waiting here. For some reason, a warm feeling rose in his heart, and at the same time, a faint smile appeared on his face. This smile was different from the usual, and even Bai Yutang, who was used to seeing his smile, couldn't help but be stunned.
This stupid cat! Why are you smiling so happily?!
Bai Yutang coughed a few times to cover up his abnormality, but he couldn't ignore his heartbeat that had missed a few beats…

===========================================
Chen Xiang's words were shocking. Li Xunhuan's bright eyes widened slightly. Immortal? What was the meaning of this? Could it be…
Early in the morning, Li Xunhuan heard a sorrowful and sorrowful music in a daze. It went straight to the bottom of his heart. He had always been a light sleeper, but when he heard this faint and extremely sad song, he was no longer in the mood to lie down. He put on his coat and walked out the door.
"Oh no! Chenxiang, do you feel that our primordial spirits are being worn down?”After Xiao Yu finished circulating her internal energy, she told Chen Xiang about her new discovery in a panic.
"What pitiful children!" Yue Xiaoyao's tone was not like Yang Xiao's at all. Instead, he sounded a little casual." He's actually bold enough to pass through the Chaos Space-time rift in his primordial spirit state. We can't continue like this!"”
