C3 Fight

A quarter of an hour before Su Mu and Wang He's door were to be knocked.

Around the turn of the fifteenth moon, the moonlight was as chilly as frost. It generously sprinkled all over the roof and eaves of the various houses in the city. Two black shadows loomed above the eaves of the inns.

"Your Highness, will the two of us capture him and let the suspect escape?" The Dark Guard that was sent to report that one of the suspects was a burly man who seemed to be a martial artist. His stalker was almost discovered. " Bao Fusheng could not help but be worried, and felt that it was too dangerous for Lin Yi to personally arrest someone at night. After all, he was a member of a noble clan, so he could not be harmed in the slightest.

Lin Yi was dressed in dark night clothes, upon hearing this he smiled subtly, "You don't think you can?"

As a man, Bao Fusheng felt extremely aggrieved that she had been questioned, and she had clearly been considering for his safety. If the two had not grown up and could no longer practice kicks and punches together, Bao Fusheng really wanted to punch Lin Yi.

"I can, of course, but I'm worried about your highness." Bao Fusheng gritted his teeth and said.

Lin Yi withdrew his smile and instructed calmly, "Capture that female owner first, let her come forward, and then we can seal her mouth and pacify her afterwards."

"Why did you capture the female owner?" Bao Fusheng asked.

Lin Yi, who had leaped down from the roof, did not explain anymore and proceeded according to plan.

"Sir, are you there?" The Lady Boss lightly knocked on the door and asked.

When Wang He, who was in the room, heard the female owner's voice, he looked at Su Mu. Both of them did not relax their vigilance.

Wang He held onto his sword tightly and threw a short dagger from his waist to Su Mu. The dagger drew an arc in the light and shadow and looked extremely cold.

Then he walked slowly to the door and answered, "What is it?"

"Customer... You... The store seemed to be … "As a famous thief, could you help me take a look?" The Lady Boss stuttered as she looked at the two black shadows beside her. Her body couldn't help but tremble.

After staying here for a few months, it was precisely because Wang He saw that the inn was close to the city gate that the Lady Boss decided to stay here as it was convenient for her to leave and it would not attract attention. Other than going downstairs to order food everyday and not interacting with the Lady Boss almost every day, she never talked too much about the private matters of the guests.

Tonight, a thief had appeared out of nowhere.

Even when Wang He was behind the door, he had already guessed that there was someone holding the Lady Boss hostage and he shouldn't have opened the door to meddle in other people's business.

Once again, he turned his head and looked Su Mu in the eye. After making his preparations, Wang He opened the wooden door.

In that split-second, Lin Yi who was outside the door rushed in first, with a violent slash, he struck Wang He, causing him to dodge to the side. Lin Yi estimated that Wang He's technique was extraordinary, and took half a step back to signal Bao Fusheng to take him down.

His goal for this trip was to not alarm the people in the city and take down the two suspects, Lin Yi fighting alone might not be unable to win against Wang He, it was just that the commotion was too great, it would be better to quickly take him down.

Bao Fusheng, who was controlling the Lady Boss, received the news and immediately knocked out the Lady Boss who was beside him and rushed into the fighting.

In the end, both of his hands could not even withstand four fists. Not long after struggling, Wang He was pressed down to the ground by Bao Fusheng, and was unable to move.

"What do you mean?" Su Mu knew that he and Wang He would not be able to escape, so he hid the dagger in his sleeves and asked.

The two of them came in the dark of the night. There were no soldiers following them, so it was obvious that they were not the group that was pursuing them. He had kidnapped the Lady Boss without harming her, just so that the two of them could open the door. If that was the case, then what they wanted was not wealth.

At this moment, Lin Yi who was masked could not help but admire the petite man, he was not flustered and said indifferently, "I need the two of you to come with us."

He didn't know where this line of work went, but Su Mu's mind quickly recalled who these two masked men were.

It was a place of no return, where danger was averted.

Su Mu decided to stake it all on this. "Are all of you here for the Zhu Family case?"

In this faraway city called Wu City, the pursuers had not found them for months, and there was no movement either. Her father had always been neutral within the imperial court, and no faction could come to their rescue, all the close friends and relatives, other than Wang He, who had been protecting her the whole time, were all gone.

Then, the only thing that could allow them to go there, was the case of Zhu Family.

With the reason being made clear, Lin Yi knew in his heart that the two people in the room could not be the culprits for this case. One was extremely skilled, one was extremely sharp, and one was extremely intelligent. When paired together, they could be considered invincible, but there was no way they could still foolishly stay within the city after committing a crime. They didn't seem like they were suspects at all, but more like they were … Hiding from someone.

Seeing that the leader of the masked men had yet to speak, Su Mu knew that his guess was correct. He moved from the corner of the bed to the window and continued to speak neither humbly nor arrogantly, "If the two of you are truly here because of the Zhu Mansion case, I can very clearly inform you that I and my brother are not a suspect. It is just that they are hiding from their enemies here. "

Not only did he not harm the citizens, he did not dare to kill them. Furthermore, he had come for the murder of someone from the Zhu Mansion. That person must be someone from the government investigating the case, or a spy hired by the Zhu Family in the martial arts world. However, if they dared to come in and arrest them, then they must have been tracking them down for a long time and had full confidence in coming in.

It seemed like Wang He was talking about someone following him during the day, and that person was this group of people.

"If you say that you are not the murderer and that words are useless, then why should we believe you?" And why are you always going to the Zhu Mansion gate? " Bao Fusheng saw that Lin Yi had not said a word, and thus asked.

Su Mu saw them saying that and then looked at Wang He who was being pressed down on the ground in pain, "I have a way to make you believe me, but please let go of my brother, he will not use force again."

Hearing that, Bao Fusheng glanced at Lin Yi, and his hands slowly relaxed.

After being released, Wang He immediately retreated to Su Mu, protecting her behind him.

Su Mu then said slowly, "Firstly, if the Zhu Mansion case was really caused by me and my brother, then there's no way I wouldn't have left behind the wealth that is rich in Zhu Family. Secondly, he would not be so foolish as to not find a way to escape even after the city gates had been sealed when the two lords came down to investigate the case. The third is in the case of Zhu Mansion. I am also observing it and am certain that it is the doing of someone within the Zhu Mansion. "

As her voice faded, the small room suddenly fell into a strange silence. Qing Hui entered the room through the window and landed on Su Mu's hair. Her face was as pale as paper and her thin lips were tightly pursed. There was an indescribable feeling.

Lin Yi stared at Su Mu and spoke in a low voice, "Work together to investigate this case thoroughly. I will protect the two of you."

The secret battle, the enigmatic trade, had all melted into the full moon of the setting sun, and silence had begun to sprout.
