Standing in the hall of the Xin family in silence for a long time, Luo Ziyu on the side looked at Xin Yi at this time with some concern, but he didn't dare to speak for a while.
Just when the people at the station, especially Xin Beizhan, had more and more anxious expressions on their faces, Xin Yi suddenly turned his head to look at Xin Beizhan and said, "What have you investigated now, tell me everything." โ
Xin Beizhan was a little hesitant for a while when he heard this, but when he met Xin Yi's gaze at this time, he felt a pain in his heart, and he still said it in detail.
After she finished speaking, Xin Yi thought about it for a while, turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait," as soon as he turned around, Xin Beizhan's voice sounded from behind him, and his tone was a little cautious: "Yi'er, are you going to find your mother by yourself? Your current strength is still a little insufficient, I promise, I will do my best to bring your mother back unscathed." โ
"You promise?" Xin Yi didn't look back, but the fluttering words drifted back into Xin Beizhan's ears, making his whole person tremble, and the regret and self-blame in his eyes almost surged up like substance: "When you wanted to bring your mother back, you also promised it." โ
"And, this is my mother. โ
Xin Yi's figure walked farther and farther, and Xin Beizhan stood in place, looking at her back fixedly, and his steps wanted to move but he couldn't exert half of his strength. The old man Xin next to him looked at his son's appearance, sighed, and could only turn around and leave first, so that he could calm himself down.
...... Xin Beizhan has been working hard to find Tang Rou's traces since she disappeared. Later, the entire Xin family was mobilized to find clues, but also found a lot of clues.
According to the clues he got from Xin Beizhan, Xin Yi thought about it for a while and decided to take a look around in Suzaku City now.
The first place to go is the place where Tang Rou disappeared.
When they returned to Vermilion Bird City this time, Tang Rou and Xin Beizhan did not go back to Xin's house to live, but found a place to live outside. The purpose of Xin Beizhan's trip was to break away from the family, so naturally it was impossible to take Tang Rou to live in the Xin family, even if it was Tang Rou himself, he must be unhappy.
Where Xin Yi is going at this time, Luo Ziyu will naturally follow at any time.
When they arrived at the place where Tang Rou and Xin Beizhan lived, it was a rather elegant small attic with a small garden-like courtyard in front.
Nearby, Xin Yi could feel that there were still many people's eyes looming over here...... After seeing that some of the faces were somewhat familiar, she knew the origin of these people after a little thought.
This is the place where Tang Rou disappeared, and now Tang Rou's trace has not been found, and of course this is one of the places where clues may be found.
There are a few faces of these people around her, who she seems to have seen when she went to the Xin family before, and they should be the people sent by the Xin family to investigate and monitor the situation here.
These people obviously also knew Xin Yi, or Xin Beizhan moved extremely fast, and they had already received orders. When Xin Yi entered the attic, these people did not stop him in the slightest.
But this is obviously not the time to care about these things, after Xin Yi entered the attic, he began to check carefully...... She is not good at things like finding clues and investigating cases, but in her previous life in another world, she didn't watch much suspense detective type TV.
But even if she didn't have a score in her heart, Xin Yi had to work hard to investigate carefully, because this was a matter related to her mother! Just as Xin Yi was about to check the entire attic first, and then look for clues, the familiar game panel suddenly jumped in front of her.
"Side quest: Find clues in this attic and deduce the identity of the person who took away her mother, Tang Rou. Reward: 400 XP or a random surprise. โ
The reward for this mission is still selective?!
The moment he saw this task, the text that marked the task reward at the end was different from the previous one, and instantly grabbed Xin Yi's attention.
But for a moment, the look in her eyes lit up suddenly, and she was told to look for clues in the attic...... Doesn't it mean that there is a clue in this attic, and that it should be possible to deduce who her mother's captor is!
As soon as this realization came out, the task reward that was different from the past was instantly thrown into Xin Yi's mind, and his spirit perked up, and he began to carefully look at the things in the attic.
Luo Ziyu on the side couldn't see the game panel in front of Xin Yi, and he was a little strange why Xin Yi, who was still ugly just now, suddenly had a look on his whole face.
However, Xin Yi could not be so depressed, of course she was more happy, and she followed Xin Yi to search the house carefully.
......
"No, still no...... How could it be ......" It's just that the two of them almost turned the entire attic upside down, and they didn't find the slightest special clue.
Xin Yi, who had just been re-excited because of the content of the task, the impatience in her heart slowly rose again, and when she was standing in the attic and a little confused, Mu Yin, who didn't know where to go just now, suddenly got out and stood in front of her.
Xin Yi didn't notice Mu Yin at first, and it wasn't until Mu Yin kept meowing at her a few times that she noticed that Mu Yin seemed to be something wrong.
"Meow woo woo ......" The fluffy hair stood up, and the big royal blue eyes were slightly red at this time.
Mu Yin kept screaming at Xin Yi, but Mu Yin could understand the human language, but Xin Yi couldn't understand what its cry meant...... Especially noticing the changes in Mu Yin's body, Xin Yi, who originally wanted to let him stay next to him first, was already anxious and worried.
After such a long time, she still didn't find the slightest clue, Xin Yi was already a little irritable in her heart, but at this time, Mu Yin stopped in front of her and kept calling.
However, when he thought of Mu Yin's humanity, Xin Yi's eyes flashed, and he looked at Mu Yin and asked tentatively: "Mu Yin, have you found something?"
Mu Yin nodded lightly.
Xin Yi's face immediately swelled with excitement, and he hurriedly continued to ask, "What did you find?"
However, after Xin Yi said this, she found that Mu Yin in front of her was still standing in front of her, and she didn't look like she was going to leave to lead the way.
With a turn of thought, Xin Yi could only guess and began to ask: "It's not somewhere else, it's here?"
"Meow woo...... Mu Yin whispered again, this sound sounded a little plausible, Xin Yi didn't understand whether it was a yes or a no.
Seeing that Xin Yi was stunned and obviously didn't understand what it meant, Mu Yin was obviously a little impatient and unhappy, and the black in his eyes became a little thicker.
"Wait, Xin Yi, look at Mu Yin's eyes. โ
At this time, one person and one cat are like chickens and ducks, if it is Xin Yi on weekdays, she may be able to understand Mu Yin's meaning slowly, but at this time, she can't calm down at all, she is full of impatience, but she is still confused after communicating with Mu Yin for a long time, which makes the mood of one person and one cat a little unstable.
Luo Ziyu on the side seemed to have suddenly discovered something, pulled Xin Yi's sleeve, and pointed to Mu Yin's eyes and suddenly spoke.
Xin Yi noticed just now that Mu Yin's eyes seemed to be a little different, but he didn't pay attention to it, and when he heard Luo Ziyu speak, he realized that there might be something in it, and his attention was also on Luo Ziyu and Mu Yin's eyes at the moment.
"I seem to have heard that some spirit beasts are very sensitive to some things, such as things that are contrary to their attributes, or the breath of dark attributes, etc., the specific manifestation is that the eyes or hair of the spirit beasts will change color, and the appearance will change to a certain extent. โ
Luo Ziyu explained in detail, and after listening to it, Xin Yi instantly grabbed a key word: "Dark attribute breath?"
"Yes, some spirit beasts are very sensitive to the aura of the dark attribute, but I don't know if Mu Yin is such a spirit beast, but its current changes are a bit like ......"
Luo Ziyu's words, Xin Yi heard it, but the clue of the dark attribute was instantly imprinted into her mind.
Dark Attribute ...... Other cultivators may not have seen a dark attribute cultivator in her life, or she didn't know it at all, but in a short period of time, she had come into contact with many dark attribute people.
The two brothers of the Weng family, as well as the player student of the Chili Academy who met in the academy league.
The student of Chili Academy who was discovered in the academy league had already been disposed of by the top management of Chili Academy, and the Weng brothers ...... Weng Wenguang is said to be dead, and even the entire Weng family has been destroyed, and the reason for this is absolutely inseparable from her Xinyi.
Weng Wenjie, who escaped last time, is also a dark attribute cultivator, and the relationship between him and her can definitely be regarded as an undying hatred......
Weng Wenjie!
Tang Rou's disappearance may be Weng Wenjie's handiwork!
As soon as this thought flashed through Xin Yi's heart, the game task panel instantly jumped out again.
"Find the murderer side quest to complete, choose the task reward: 400 experience points, or a random surprise. โ
It's really Weng Wenjie!
As soon as this hint from the task system came out, the guess in Xin Yi's heart was instantly confirmed.
The cold light in his eyes kept flashing...... From the moment she heard that Weng Wenjie had escaped, she thought in her heart that the other party was very likely to come to her for revenge, and she secretly reminded herself to be vigilant at all times.
However, after such a period of time, his life is still calm, there is no abnormality, and he has not been conspired by anyone, and Xin Yi slowly relaxed his vigilance in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the other party actually moved to her mother!
If there is anyone on this continent who Xin Yi cares about the most, it is definitely Tang Rou! Xin Yi has long regarded her as her mother, and Tang Rou is her reverse scale.
Weng Wenjie wants to take revenge, she must be a generous response when she comes to her, grievances and grievances between cultivators are extremely common, and the two sides have formed such a deep grudge, it is simply whimsical to say that they will not let the other party come to retaliate.
But Weng Wenjie shouldn't have done anything to her mother Tang Rou!
