Chapter 36: Investigating the Shadows
"Tsk." The shadow looked at Situ Rui contemptuously and said jokingly, "It's really an old-fashioned warning. If I'm not mistaken, I should have reminded you of it before. ”
Not ready to talk to Situ Rui anymore, the shadow hugged Shen Yunyou, turned around and prepared to walk out the door.
Easily dodging Situ Rui's attack, the shadow slightly distanced himself from Situ Rui and asked, "Do you want to kill her even as well?" ”
Going around and around, the shadow didn't have the slightest intention of fighting Situ Rui. After leaving the room, the shadow instantly sped up his movements, passing by the oncoming white ink face.
"I'll leave it to you." The Shadow whispered a word, and then left without looking back.
Situ Rui was blocked alive by Bai Moyan, looking at the back of the shadow leaving angrily, and opened his mouth with murderous anger. "Get out of the way!"
"Why is the prince so angry?" Bai Moyan talked to Situ Rui in a surprised tone, which made Situ Rui's already unhappy mood even worse. "If you're worried about Yun You's injury, please rest assured. The Shadow will cure her! ”
"What does Shen Yunyou have to do with you?!" Mentioning the matter of Shadow and Shen Yunyou again, Situ Rui asked in a cold tone.
"This needs to be checked by yourself, anyway, the hundreds of people in the Liu family have all died, this reminder should be obvious enough, right?" Bai Moyan said to Situ Rui angrily: "By the way, there are still a few people I didn't kill, and they were thrown at the gate, if the prince has time, remember to check their relationship with Chu Yu and Flocculation." As for Yun You, we will send her back after the wound is treated. I've said everything I need to say, Lord Rui, there will be a time later. ”
Bai Moyan left some words that made Situ Rui uneasy, and after a few moves with Situ Rui, he disappeared from Situ Rui's sight.
Standing alone, Situ Rui glanced at the corpse on the ground with a cold gaze.
The surroundings quieted down, and Situ Rui quickly regained his previous calm. The shadow's actions and the woman's words made Situ Rui understand that Shen Yunyou's life was not in danger now. However, what Situ Rui couldn't understand was what the shadow had taken a look at Shen Yunyou?
The Shadow's actions today were clearly planned in advance. After he found out that Shen Yunyou was caught here, he deliberately sent someone to inform him. He wanted to meet him, he wanted to know that he was interested in Shen Yunyou. So, does it mean that he is declaring war on himself?
The masked people that Situ Rui saw at the beginning were obviously Shadow's men. Although Situ Rui didn't observe them carefully, he also knew very well that the martial arts of those people were definitely not low. And the shadow and the woman are even more above themselves......
Situ Rui calmly walked to the exit of the stockade, and when he walked to the gate, he finally understood what the woman's sentence "throwing at the gate" meant.
The few men in front of him were all tied up by Wuhuada. And the mouth was stuffed with things, and then they were strangled with a blist, so that they could not make a sound.
Situ Rui took two steps forward and untied the steps on a person's mouth. Seeing the man spit out the things in his mouth with a painful expression, Situ Rui couldn't help but be stunned. What is in their mouths is a pebble!
Shifting his gaze from the stones to the faces of several people, Situ Rui sighed lightly, grabbed the hair of the person who had removed the strip of cloth from his mouth, and asked, "Who asked you to arrest Shen Yunyou?" ”
"I, I don't know......" The man sitting on the ground answered Situ Rui's question with a trembling voice, and then looked like he was about to cry, looking at the other man next to him.
Through his every move, Situ Rui understood that the man was their leader. Without asking anything else, Situ Rui took a few people back to King Rui's mansion in a carriage.
"Sixth brother, you're back." After seeing Situ Rui, Situ Nan hurriedly stood up and said, "I have something to tell you. ”
"Say it." Situ Rui sat down on the chair tiredly and reached out to pour himself a cup of tea. But before the tea was handed to his mouth, he heard Situ Nan say the news that Chu Yu was dead.
The teacup fell to the ground and shattered in an instant, Situ Rui's face turned blue, he looked at Situ Nan with heavy breathing, and asked, "What about the corpse?" Did you find it? ”
"It's been brought back." Situ Nan looked at Situ Rui's expression cautiously, and said cautiously, "I'll take you over." ”
Taking Situ Rui to the place where Chu Yu's body was stored, Situ Nan didn't say anything else and exited the room, leaving Situ Rui there alone.
Walking into the courtyard, Situ Nan and Situ Ningchen looked at each other silently. After a long while, Situ Ningchen asked in a low voice, "Have you told Sixth Brother Chu Yu the cause of death?" ”
"I didn't say it. He'll find out for himself. Situ Nan glanced at the room where Situ Rui was with a gloomy expression, and sighed secretly. How Chu Yu died and who killed him, none of these can be revealed to Situ Rui now.
Situ Nan recalled the news he had just gotten, and according to the passers-by who had witnessed the whole thing, it should have been none other than Shen Yunyou who killed Chu Yu. But where Shen Yunyou is now, they don't know. Situ Nan sent someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but the people over there said that Shen Yunyou had never gone back at all. and Situ Liuyun, who also went back to the palace directly, and only asked someone to tell them. The whole thing looked more and more weird, so that Situ Nan had to be cautious.
Situ Rui stayed in the room until dark, and then walked out slowly. Looking at Situ Nan and Situ Ningchen in front of him, Situ Rui opened his mouth expressionlessly and said, "Lock up the few people I brought back and Floc, and the others are not allowed to see them without my permission." Also, from now on, do your best to investigate the Shadows for me. I would like to see more information about him. ”
After speaking, Situ Rui walked in the direction outside the gate of Rui Wang's Mansion without looking back.
"Investigating the Shadows?" Situ Ningchen repeated Situ Rui's words, looked at Situ Nan suspiciously, and said, "This matter has something to do with the shadows?" ”
"I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the shadow, but Shen Yunyou can't get out of this matter. Shadow is not an easy character to deal with, and if he is really involved, we have to be careful. ”
After arranging flocculation and those men, Situ Nan and Situ Ningchen returned to the palace side by side. But as soon as he entered the imperial city gate, he saw Situ Liuyun waiting here with an anxious face.
"You're back." Situ Liuyun blocked Situ Nan and Situ Ningchen's way, "What about Yun You?" Why haven't you come back yet? ”
Situ Nan and Situ Ningchen glanced at each other, and then shifted their gaze to Situ Liuyun. Situ Nan took a step forward, looked at Situ Liuyun intently, and asked, "Why did you go back to the palace by yourself today?" ”
Yun You said that she went back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she wanted to chat with her mother again, and she wanted to discuss things with her father. I felt bored and went back to the palace by myself, who knew that as soon as I came back, I was called by my father and accompanied him for a whole afternoon. When I went back to the dormitory just now, I found that Yun You hadn't come back yet. My father won't let me leave the palace at such a late hour, so I can only wait here for you to come back. ”
Situ Liuyun finished speaking with an anxious expression, looked at the two people who were not ready to respond to her at all, stomped her feet angrily, and asked loudly, "What happened?!" ”
"You'll find out tomorrow." Situ Nan let out a long sigh helplessly, "Go back and rest, she should be fine." ”
"Should it be alright?" Situ Liuyun frowned and looked at Situ Nan, looking at the backs of Situ Nan and Situ Ningchen who were drifting apart, his eyes flickering.
Raising the corners of his mouth without a trace, Situ Liuyun also returned to his dormitory after Situ Nan and Situ Ningchen left......
"Awake?" The shadow looked at Shen Yunyou, who slowly opened his eyes on the bed, stood up from the chair, walked to the bedside, and reached out to touch Shen Yunyou's forehead. After making sure that Shen Yunyou's high fever had subsided, the shadow whispered, "You killed Chu Yu." ”
Shen Yunyou lay on the bed in great pain, opening his eyes groggily, but the first words he heard after waking up made Shen Yunyou deceive himself and want to faint again.
"I know, I don't need to be reminded." Shen Yunyou had difficulty moving and wanted to sit up, but after she moved her body, she didn't need to say much in the shadow, she just lay there honestly, motionless.
The body under the thin quilt was wearing nothing, which made Shen Yunyou sober up in an instant.
After quickly looking around the environment in the room, Shen Yunyou shook the corners of his lips and asked, "Where is this?" ”
"My home."
"Do you still have a home?" The shadow's answer made Shen Yunyou raise his eyebrows in surprise. "I thought you would just run to other people's houses and not have your own place to live."
"If you want to appear naked in front of Situ Rui, I don't mind if you continue." The shadow sat back in his chair and looked at Shen Yunyou with a deep gaze. Seeing Shen Yunyou's unconvinced appearance of closing his mouth, the shadow smiled silently and continued: "Situ Rui's side already knows about Chu Yu's death. As for you, the murderer, you will be found sooner or later. What do you want to do now? ”
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. Anyway, if you kill them, it's impossible for me to bring Chu Yu back to life. It's a big deal, one life is worth one life, and let Situ Rui kill it. Shen Yunyou answered the Shadow's question with a broken jar and broken attitude. Chu Yu, this woman is not a good man and a woman, she would know such a group of bandits. ”
Thinking about those thieves who wanted to invade him like hungry wolves, Shen Yunyou couldn't help but tighten the quilt on his body.
The shadow listened to Shen Yunyou's words silently, and after noticing Shen Yunyou's actions, the shadow narrowed his eyes slightly, then smiled softly, and said, "You can really see it." ”
