Within the secretive room, two figures were constantly moving about. Although the four hours of searching was not long, there were still some unexpected results.

"Little Fan, today I really admire you. I've solved the riddle of the poem and broken the trap, but even a secret room like this can't do anything to you. What kind of intelligence do you have? Uncle Murong can save it this time," Lingyun said happily. After four hours of research, they had basically discovered every single trace of the secret room.

"Ai, don't say it like that. Susu must be worried, let's go back and analyze. There's not much time left, we have to catch up before the execution." Fan Mu clenched his fists. This time, they needed to race against time.

He pushed open the door and saw that Susu was sleeping on the side. The two of them couldn't help but smile at each other. They didn't expect to stay in the room for so long.

"What is the result?" The extremely tired warrior saw Ling Yun and Xiao Budian and immediately went up to ask them.

"I've already reached the Small Success Realm," the two answered in unison. Their mouths curved into a mysterious smile as they looked around the room and asked, "Uncle, do you know where the people who were on night watch were? We want to ask them something."

"That's easy. I'll tell them after tonight's shift change that I'll be here in the morning to wait for you, okay?" the warrior replied readily. Seeing the two of them brimming with confidence, he smiled.

"Then I'll have to trouble you. Oh right, you have to guard the scene well, the person involved might leave behind something important, and if you are tricked, Uncle Murong will not be able to save you," Lingyun did not forget to remind the warrior before he left. Seeing him nod, he pulled Susu along and left the restaurant together, while Si Kong still stood at the door with his back against the wall.

"What did you find?" Si Kong asked while yawning. His back feet seemed to be touching the wall, appearing to be bored out of his mind. It was obvious that he was not interested in the children's game.

"Sigh, there isn't much progress. I don't know what's wrong with Uncle Murong's head to actually do such a thing." Lingyun shook his head helplessly, pretending to be sorrowful and helpless as he deliberately pulled Si Kong's gaze away.

"Hehe, like I said, let's go back to eat and rest. We've worked hard for the whole day." Sue could see clearly that the fog of jealousy in the dark place in his heart had enveloped everything.

After returning to his residence, he waited for Si Kong and the nanny to finish arranging all the household chores. Ling Yun then said a few good words and then left in peace.

"This guy is really troublesome," Fan Mu couldn't help but complain. He jabbered on and on for a long time, but he really had never seen someone like this.

"Forget it, the most important thing to do now is to find Lord Punishment," Lingyun suggested when he saw that it was getting late. He only had a little more time in a day to find out the truth and clear Uncle Murong's name.

"Let's go," seeing that the two had no intention of leaving, Susu urged. She also wanted to know what the two of them had found to be so secretive.

"Buzz ?"

As he pushed open the wooden door of the tea house, Xing Yu was still there looking at the details of the case.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xing Yu was startled at first, but then turned extremely happy. He had nothing in the entire afternoon, so he hoped that these children would bring him some good news.

"Uncle Xing, the walls have ears, let's take a step and talk," Lingyun whispered to Xing Yu.

"Sure," immediately after, Xing Yu walked to the side of the bookshelf, twisting something that looked like a Go board, changing the positions of the pieces on it. With a slight vibration, the bookshelves on both sides moved away, leaving behind a deep hole that could allow one to walk through.

"Ugh, there really is a secret chamber in the homes of every noble and powerful official," Fan Mu complained. Although the secret chamber's design was breathtaking, compared to that of an outsider's, it was hard to decipher.

"Alright, you can go down, perhaps it's been a long time since you've used the bad luck inside there," said Xing Yu as he snapped his fingers, responding to the voice, the oil lamps on the walls seemed to have been set up, lighting up one after another. Fan Mu thought, such a cleverly designed secret chamber, compared to Yun Tian's secret chamber, is simply incomparable.

The secret passage twisted and turned for who knew how many times before finally reaching the secret chamber. Four people surrounded a stone table and lit an oil lamp. A terrifying atmosphere immediately spread out.

"Uh, this feeling, why do I feel like there's a special story gathering going on. Uncle Xing, what are you doing?" Lingyun asked Xing Yu with a speechless expression, making him speechless for a moment.

Whenever this happened, a peacemaker would appear. He was Fan Mu, and laughed, "Alright, alright, let's get down to business. Time is tight, we have to hurry."

"Mm, okay, Xiao Yun, have you guys found anything yet?" Xing Yu softly asked.

"There are two big discoveries. Little Fan, you should be the one to tell me. I have to admit that you have a pair of Fiery Eyes of Truth." Lingyun pushed Fan Mu forward, indicating that he was the main character.

Fan Mu's eyes were filled with confusion, he was not used to being pushed around like that, but it was a matter of great importance, so he could not be bothered with anything else. He said very calmly, "This time, we found two things. First, we found a broken cup, and it left a deep dent in the wooden floor.

Halfway through his words, Fan Mu paused for a moment, giving Susu and Xing Yu enough time to think. When their eyes met, he then continued, "The second thing that seems strange is that there is a burnt mark on the floor, and the blood stain also has some burning marks, the glass fragments on it are already burnt black, this really doesn't make sense, there is no burning aid, the glass shouldn't be able to become like this, moreover, the burning mark is still above the blood, it doesn't mix, this is even stranger. However, we checked our surroundings and did not see anything that can help us burn. However, I still feel that there is something different."

"What conclusion?" Xing Yu asked excitedly. After hearing Fan Mu's reasoning, he believed in Murong Yi's innocence even more. It was a pity that he couldn't go to the scene of the crime, otherwise he would have to prove Big Brother Murong's innocence even if he had to dig three feet into the ground.
