C100

Gradually, the sound of thunder drifted further and further away from the entrance of the tea house. Blood-red drizzles were drifting about in the dark night like ox hair. It was as if an even bigger conspiracy was brewing.

Uncle Hu revealed a look of disdain. Hearing this, he didn't even bother to pay attention to Xing Yu. He only used his right hand to swipe at his own neck, indicating that he had already executed the perpetrator.

"Then, of course it's very good. Since there's nothing else, let's think about it first. General Mu Rong will be late tomorrow. Ai, fellow brothers, have you made any new discoveries?" Xing Yu said dejectedly.

"Wait a minute, isn't it three days later? How did it become tomorrow?" Fan Mu was stunned. He remembered that the notice clearly stated that it would be the day after tomorrow.

"When you came, you had already posted a notice for one day, so the exact time should be tomorrow at noon. If you don't have solid evidence to prove General Murong's innocence, then perhaps ?" "Then ?" Xing Yu choked, not knowing how to continue.

"This is bad, there's still one more crucial thing we haven't investigated," Fan Mujiao was extremely anxious. The crucial evidence was thought of after hearing the witness' testimony, and he did not ask Lingyun to investigate. Based on the current situation, he could only wait until tomorrow morning, but it was hard to say if he could catch up with the Western Lion King's execution.

"Can you tell me the evidence so that I can arrange for witnesses to appear in court tomorrow to clear General Murong's name," suggested Xing Yu. Since the situation was about to unfold, he had no choice but to do so.

"Young man, you are indeed not the same." After hearing Fan Mu's analysis, Uncle Hu was the first to praise him. Those seemingly insignificant traces became a complete line in Fan Mu's narration. It had to be said that this analysis ability was not something ordinary people could learn.

"Haha, I don't know if I can beg you to stay, but I think that all the wonders of the world are easy to deal with." Xing Yu chuckled. To be honest, he had been thoroughly analyzed by Fan Mu.

"Uh, we should think about what to do tomorrow." Helpless, Fan Mu quickly changed the topic.

"No worries, in a while I will tell my subordinates to notify the witnesses and drag them to the manor before the execution, but tomorrow's judge shouldn't be me, it might be the Eastern Ping King himself. Whether it's words or evidence, we have to prepare everything, and that guy is notoriously mean and mean." After he finished speaking, Xing Yu didn't forget to remind the three of them to pay more attention.

"Alright, then I'll have to ask you to do this tomorrow, because I don't know when I'll need to find that thing," Fan Mu whispered into Xing Yu's ear. Xing Yu nodded and told him that he would do as he said.

Seeing that your bodies are also wet, and your clothes are also wet, you might as well take a shower and have a good rest, the heavy rain outside will not stop for a while, and we can leave tomorrow morning, what do you think? "Xing Yu opened the door and saw that it was raining heavily, so he called his men to quickly clean up the room and suggested," Uncle Hu, why don't we stay here tonight and go back after General Murong's matter is settled, what do you think?

"Okay, go rest." Uncle Hu waved his sleeves and turned into a cloud of dust, disappearing without a sound.

"..."

It was too late to experience the fresh air. The guards of the Punishment Hall were already fully equipped, and not only were they ready to go, there were at least half of them. Fan Mu and the other two had already left when the first rays of dawn fell on them.

It was probably because of the incident with the Western Lion King that the market these past few days had seemed especially desolate.

"Are you sure you can find it here?" Fan Mu clicked his tongue, lamenting that this large market was at least three times bigger than the Jin Gate. Moreover, this was only an unremarkable small market in Huai City.

"It should be good. When I came to ask around yesterday, I saw a few ice shops. Maybe the things you were talking about were bought from them." Lingyun explained with a slightly hoarse voice. It seemed like he had caught a cold from last night's wind and rain.

"That would be great. Brother Yun, I'll be depending on you to lead the way." Fan Mu said happily as he opened a path for Lingyun, allowing him to lead the way for him and Susu.

"Ice factory? "Pfft, what a domineering name," Susu laughed out loud. Having lived in the Cloudlight Mountain all year round, she naturally didn't know that this chain of ice shops occupied more than half of the market.

"Go on in, I don't know if the boss is here." Seeing Susu at ease, Fan Mu didn't explain any further and followed the two into the shop.

"Guests, please come in. I didn't expect you to arrive so early. Our preparations haven't been completed yet and we still need you to wait." As soon as they entered the room, they were blocked by a waiter and dragged into a private room to sit down.

There was no helping it, they didn't eat ice when they entered the restaurant. Just by asking, they were definitely lacking in manners. That would mean accepting the waiter's request to eat a little bit.

"Ai, one portion is enough. Oh right, tell your boss to come over. We have a business to discuss with her," Lingyun said hoarsely. He paid her and even gave her some tips.

The waiter was extremely happy. He didn't expect to receive such a good reward right after opening the restaurant. He didn't even know if he would receive a tip, so it seemed like today was a good omen.

"Excuse me, is it you guys who are looking for me?" A woman's voice softly sounded from outside the door. She gently opened the door and her red lips, which exuded an enchanting luster, entered his eyes from time to time. She was slightly nervous as her tight clothes wrapped around her voluptuous body was an absolute temptation for an adult male.

"Yes, yes. Big sister, please take a seat. We were sent by the yamen, but we wanted to know something." As he spoke, Lingyun displayed the manor's jade token.

The beautiful woman's face lit up when she heard this. However, the key she was grabbing onto was the big sister. "En, little brothers, there's no harm."

"Has anyone come to your shop these days to buy ice cubes that have not been processed?" Fan Mu asked bluntly, not at all blaming the other party for putting on an act.

"About this, let me think, it seems that a masked customer came to ask about it, but I felt that there was something fishy about it, so I didn't agree, moreover, it is a good summer day, the business in the shop is quite good, if he were to sell the ice cubes directly, it would be a great waste, but I think, if he wants ice cubes, he will definitely continue to ask around, there should be several ice factories next to my shop, little brother can go and have a look, maybe there will be some unexpected benefits," the beautiful woman recalled carefully, but when she asked about the physique of the masked person, the beautiful woman shook her head helplessly.
