"Martial Uncle, what can you see from this wound?”Han Fei asked Bai Su.
"There are some clues, but I still need to confirm it.”Bai Su nodded.
"Hiss, this bookshelf is a little strange.”Suddenly, Han Fei walked to the bookshelf next to the corpse and said while looking at it.
Zhang Liang glanced at the bookshelf and agreed,""Indeed. Could it be that this is a secret door?”
"As an important military official, it's reasonable to set up a secret door in the family.”Han Fei walked in, trying to find out more.
"How do I open it?" Han Fei thought while holding his chin with his right hand.
Looking at Zhang Liang, Han Fei suddenly said,""I have…"
Before Han Fei finished, he heard a cracking sound. Han Fei and Zhang Liang turned around and saw Bai Su standing in front of the bookshelf, and the hidden door of the bookshelf was slowly opening.
"It seems that Martial Uncle Bai is an expert in this field. He easily found the mechanism of the Dark Clan.”Han Fei praised.
"Stop talking nonsense and come in quickly.”Bai Su snapped.
Walking in and looking at the messy secret chamber in front of him, Han Fei was not surprised at all."As expected, this is the actual location of the murder.”
Zhang Liang also stepped forward and said,"The deceased was killed in a hidden secret room. After his death, his body was moved outside."”
"Since it's a secret room, then it's not a place that ordinary people can easily find.”
"Therefore, the murderer should have some understanding of the Left Sima, or even be very familiar with him.”
"No need to guess. I can already confirm who the murderer is.”Before the two of them could finish their speculations, Bai Su spoke.
"How did Uncle-Master confirm it?" Han Fei was curious.
"These sword marks are exactly the same as the sword marks left in the room by the person who wanted to assassinate Nongyu.”Bai Su explained.
"If I'm not mistaken, he was also the one who killed Liu Yi.”
"But, one is Zither from Purple Orchid Pavilion, and the other is the military minister of Han Country. How are these two related? Moreover, according to Miss Violet Girl, Nongyu was brought up by her since she was young, so it was even more impossible for her to be related to Left Sima Liu Yi.”Zhang Liang was puzzled.
"Look, this is a broken thread.”Han Fei picked up what he found in the room.
Then, the three of them came to a box, and Han Fei wanted to open it.
Before Han Fei could move, Bai Su slashed at the box and it was instantly split open.
Seeing this, Han Fei and Zhang Liang both walked to the box.
"This is?" Han Fei looked at the inside of the box. It was an empty box with a strange pattern at the bottom.
" This is the Blood Oath of Death of the Yue," Bai Su explained." It represents a life and death contract."”
"Obviously, Liu Yi had made an agreement with someone and then violated the contract. That's why he was found and killed.”Han Fei was deep in thought.
"Alright, we've almost finished investigating this place. It's time for us to meet this Left Sima Furen.”Han Fei said as he walked out.
As soon as he walked out of the secret room, he saw the butler walk over and report,"Sir, Madam has arrived."
Looking at the person who came, it was a gentle and pleasant woman. She was dressed in elegant blue-green clothes with golden edging embellishments, which accentuated her gentleness and unobtrusive nobility. On one side of her waist, she wore a red agate pendant.
Han Fei stepped forward and cupped his hands.""Madam, I'm sorry for being disturbed by Han Fei.”
"Thank you, Young Master." Madam Hu said, slightly restraining her grief.
The few of them moved to the lobby.
Han Fei looked at Mrs. Hu again." I know you're exhausted and weak, so I'll try my best to make it short, okay?"”
……
"Thank you for your explanation, Madam. If Han Fei is rude, please forgive me.”After asking all the questions, Han Fei got up and bowed to Mrs. Hu.
"Young Master, you don't have to do this. In order to solve the case, I will do my best to cooperate.”Madam Hu returned the greeting.
Seeing that Han Fei had finished his inquiry, Bai Su came forward and said to Madam Hu,""Madam, long time no see. Do you still recognize me?”
"And you are?" Madam Hu looked at the man in front of her. He seemed familiar, but she did not know where she had seen him before.
Ignoring Han Fei's strange look, Bai Su said,""Ten years ago, Madam's father, Fire Rain Duke, took me in when I was heavily injured. It was also at that time that I met Madam a few times.”
"It's you?" Madam Hu also remembered. For her, because of that huge change, the memories from ten years ago were very clear, as if it had happened yesterday.
Not long ago, she had also fallen for this man in front of her. However, after his injuries recovered, he left Fiery Rain Manor and there was no longer any news of him.
Later on, she met Li Kai, the Right Sima of Han Country. They fell in love and gave birth to a daughter.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Not long after, the news of Li Kai's death came. Then, the Three Wolves with Broken Hair broke into Fiery Rain Manor, and the glory of the past was also burned.
In the chaos of war, his daughter was lost. Later on, he married Left Sima Liu Yi, and his sister entered the palace to become the King of Han's favorite concubine, Beauty Hu.
" Madam, it has been ten years. If it wasn't for Lord Fiery Rain's help, I'm afraid I would have died in the Baiyue Land. Now that I've learned of the bad news of Fiery Rain Manor, sigh…"
"It's all in the past." Mrs. Hu said as she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Although I can't save Fiery Rain Manor, Madam, I've seen another piece of Fiery Rain Agate similar to the one you have.”Bai Su seemed to have a point.
Upon hearing this, Madam Hu hurriedly looked at Bai Su.""Where is she? Where did you see it? Is she alright?"
"Madam, don't be agitated. She's doing very well now and is in New Zheng City. However, now is not the time for you to meet. If Madam is willing, I'll look for Madam again tonight.”Bai Su consoled.
" Okay, okay. Thank you, sir…" Madam Hu was already very satisfied when she heard that her daughter was on a new journey and was doing well.
"In that case, we'll take our leave first.”
After bidding farewell to Lady Hu, the three of them left the Left Sima Estate together.
Walking outside, Han Fei looked at Bai Su.""Martial Uncle, how do you know Madam Hu?”
"That was ten years ago. If it wasn't for today, I probably wouldn't have known that she was in New Zheng City.”Bai Su said half-truthfully.
"Then what about the Fire Rain Agate that Martial Uncle mentioned?”
"There are two pieces of Fire Rain Agate on Madam Hu. One is on Madam Hu herself, and the other is on her lost daughter.”Bai Su explained simply.
"Fire Rain Agate? Daughter? I think I know." Han Fei repeated it several times and finally thought of something.
