C2 Looking for the Real Culprit

"Ah!" Mo Yitong screamed out in fear and quickly retreated. As she couldn't stand properly, she fell to the ground. The general watched her movements and wondered, wasn't she the one who killed her opponent? Why are you so frightened …

"Speak, what happened?!"

"General, I..." "I, I seem to have seen the murderer …"

"Oh?" The general looked at the frightened Mo Yitong and said, "Tell me, did you see the murderer?"

"Mm, yes, General. It's true. That person is wearing a mask. There is also blood, and also a blade …"

"Stop bullshitting, this girl is really good at making things up. She will see the killer again when she teleports over later. Stop delaying, is it that interesting?" Mo Yitong looked at the bailiffs and spectators behind her, unable to believe her words. She used her hand to pat herself on the head. I saw it. What's going on?

"Someone, open the chains!" The general's tone was gentle as he instructed a bailiff beside him. Upon hearing his command, the bailiff looked at the general in confusion and asked, "General, why is that so?"

"If I tell you to open it, then open it!" Zuo Zuo said.

"Yes, yes …" The bailiff glanced at Mo Yitong as he unlocked the chain on her hand.

Mo Yitong did not understand what he meant and asked, "General, what is this?"

The general shifted his gaze from Mo Yitong's face to the corpse below and gently covered it with a white cloth. "I believe you."

Mo Yitong was stunned. He trusts me? Why?

The interrogation ended just like that. Mo Yitong didn't return to the prison, but she didn't release her, and was instead placed in General Mansion by the general.

"Miss Mo, this is your room. Take a look. If there's anything you're not satisfied with, please call me." A little girl who looked like she was only 13 or 14 years old led Mo Yitong to a room. The room was very big and had all the daily necessities. Mo Yitong nodded in satisfaction, "Little girl, thank you!"

"No need to thank me, Miss Mo. These are the orders of the General."

"Hmm, your general is quite considerate ~" Mo Yitong smiled. "What's your name?"

"Servant Aa Lyu!"

"Alright, got it. You can leave. I'll lie down for a while!"

"Yes sir!" Mo Yitong rushed to the bed after the door was lightly closed. With a "plop" sound, Mo Yitong rubbed her arm. She grimaced and said to herself, "Is this a bed?" This is simply steel! "

The bed was not as comfortable as the modern bed, but it was still a good bed with a soft quilt under it. Mo Yitong especially liked the green curtain hanging by the bed.

"So comfortable …" Mo Yitong smiled knowingly and stretched lazily. Just as she was about to fall asleep, she felt something pressing against her chest. She accompanied her mouth and touched something hard with her hand.

"What is this?" However, it was originally the size of a jade plate, but now it looked like it was only the size of a copper coin. Furthermore, a golden string was even hung on her neck, it seemed that her teleportation had a lot to do with this object.

Mo Yitong was looking over the item, hoping to find something that would send her back to the modern world. Her parents only had her daughter …

"Hey, Aa Lyu, what's going on? "Where are you going?" Suddenly, Mo Yitong heard someone talking outside. She quickly put her things back in her clothes and got out of bed.

"I'll go get Miss Mo to bathe."

"Miss Mo? "Where did you come from?"

"It's the Mo Yitong Miss Mo that the general brought back from the court!" Aa Lyu's childish voice rang out as she walked to Mo Yitong's room.

"Hey, Aa Lyu!" Another girl pulled Aa Lyu down and patted her forehead. "Aa Lyu, you're so stupid. That's a murderer. You've killed a lot of people. Aren't you afraid that she'll kill you?"

Aa Lyu looked at the girl in disbelief. "That can't be. I think Miss Mo is a good person. She doesn't know how to kill people, does she?"

The other girl's face darkened. She whispered, "You don't know yet? I've heard about it before. It was a serial killer case. A lot of people died!"

"Ah!" Aa Lyu shrieked in fear, and the girl quickly covered her mouth.

Mo Yitong stood in the room and listened. I may not be gentle or virtuous, but I have a kind heart. Why do you all think I'm a murderer?

The girls outside were still talking.

"Who did you hear that from?" Aa Lyu asked in a low voice. Her small face was pale and frightened.

"A lot of people saw it when the general was interrogating her. He said Mo Yitong must have been the murderer …" The little girl who had been covering Aa Lyu's mouth earlier had her eyes wide open as she spoke with her cheeks puffed out.

The door was opened with a "clang". Mo Yitong appeared at the door with her hands on her hips. She was furious, her almond-shaped eyes were wide open as she shouted, "I am not a murderer. What evidence do you have to prove that I killed someone?"

When the girls saw Mo Yitong, they all ran away as fast as a mouse seeing a cat. Only Aa Lyu was trembling as she stood in front of the door, holding onto her clothes with both hands.

"Aa Lyu!" Mo Yitong said in a serious tone.

"Ah, ah..." "Mo, Miss Mo …"

Mo Yitong walked up to Aa Lyu. Seeing that Aa Lyu was so scared that she was about to cry, tears started to well up in her eyes. Her heart softened as she said gently, "Good Aa Lyu, can you believe in me? "I really am not a murderer …"

Aa Lyudo nodded her head, trembling. "Yes, I … I believe you … Miss, I've already made hot water. Go take a bath quickly …"

"Alright …" Mo Yitong forced a smile, but she felt upset. She really wasn't a murderer, why would she not believe it? Thus, after showering, Mo Yitong put on her clothes and headed for the general's study!

"Dong, dong, dong." Mo Yitong knocked on the general's door.

"Who is it?"

"General, it's me …"

"Oh? What's the matter? " The general walked out and asked Mo Yitong.

Mo Yitong nodded and said seriously, "General, yes, I have matters to attend to. Although General said that he believed my words, no one believed it. So, I thought that I would find out who the culprit was to prove my innocence."

The general looked at Mo Yitong's determined eyes, the corner of his mouth slightly raised. He nodded and said, "Ok, I'll listen to you. Let Zuo Zuo help you."

Mo Yitong was overjoyed. "Thank you, General."

"What is there to thank? Finding the culprit is also my responsibility. If you find the real culprit, I will definitely heavily reward you."

"Thank you, General."

The general smiled and put his hand on Mo Yitong's shoulder. He looked into Mo Yitong's eyes and said casually, "Don't call me General. Call me Zixuan."

Mo Yitong raised her head and looked at General Yu's bright eyes that were as clear as water. She smiled and said, "Yes, Zixuan."
