Chapter 351 It Can't Be a Coincidence
"What happened? Didn't I tell you to keep a close eye on him? Why did things go wrong at this crucial moment?"
"It was the fault of my subordinates. We had been keeping an eye on Xing Ziru, but an accident suddenly happened at the new house, which attracted many people from the villa. Xing Ziru took the opportunity to blend into the crowd and disappeared."
"Is there anything unusual about the Luo Mo Tian Ice?" In order to make the act more convincing, even if the Luo Mo Tian Ice was fake, they still treated it as real and placed it in a very safe place.
"The secret vault is being watched by Guard Zhan, so everything is fine. But Xing Ziru did linger in front of the secret vault for a while before disappearing."
The guard told him everything he knew, down to the smallest detail.
"The entrance to the manor is still blocked, so this person definitely can't escape. You all need to quickly take your men and search the area."
Zhan Yunfei acted decisively, taking advantage of the fact that it was still early and Xing Ziru had not yet escaped the villa, and immediately arranged for a search.
"Yes." The guard acknowledged the order and left.
"Since E'yue is the link between Wei Qingchou and Xing Ziru, it means that Wei Qingchou is also related to Luo Motianbing. Let's go and see if E'yue has any other clues."
Now that Xing Ziru had left, Li Lianhua turned her attention to investigating Eyue's secret.
Led by Li'er, the group soon arrived at a small courtyard, where Li'er pushed open a door.
"Eyue slept in this spot."
I didn’t expect Tianji Manor to be so big. Even a new maid like E Yue has a room for two people.
Although it's a bit small, it's much better than a dormitory where dozens of people live together.
Unlike people nowadays, when we were little, several brothers or sisters would squeeze into one bed, and during our school years, we would live in six-person or eight-person dormitories.
When it comes time to work, if you get a job in a factory, even if the pay is good, you'll still be in a four-person room at least.
Or perhaps they spend a quarter or a quarter of their meager salary to rent a small, old rental room or a shared room.
The group searched carefully around E'yue's location, but after a lot of searching, they found nothing.
Looking at the neatly packed bundle in E'yue's wardrobe, Li Lianhua picked it up and weighed it in her hand. It didn't seem to be very heavy, and it looked like it contained only a few pieces of clothing.
He wanted to open it to see if there was anything hidden inside, but Wu You took it away and put it on the table: "Let me do it."
"Did you find some clues that made you have to come?" Fang Duobing asked curiously as he approached.
"You'll know what it is once you open it."
Wu You untied the knot, revealing what was inside—a book.
"The Book of Songs?"
“Oh, right, E'yue often sits alone in the corner reading this book,” Li'er added from the side.
"He even has the leisure to read books while committing murder, just like Xing Zi playing chess, which shows his refined taste."
Li Lianhua picked up the three hundred poems, sat down on the stool, flipped through them casually, and then handed them to Fang Duobing.
"Come, tell me which poem from the Book of Songs this is?"
Fang Duobing took it and flipped through it again and again. He looked at it again and again, but he couldn't find a single poem among the three hundred poems. All he could find were chess manuals.
"Are you kidding me? This isn't some kind of 'Three Hundred Poems'!"
Noticing something amiss with the cover, Fang Duobing tore it off along the edge, revealing five large characters.
"Here is the Collection of Forget-Worries and Clear Moon."
“It’s impossible that Xing Ziru set up this chess game on the Forget-Worry Moon Collection, and that E Yue also hid a copy of the Forget-Worry Moon Collection.”
