Although the woman who suddenly appeared in front of her was just a shadow, she could vaguely see a somewhat feminine figure.
"So this is the meeting you were talking about."
Li Nanke suddenly realized.
Unexpectedly, this mysterious woman is actually a dreamer, and her identity is indeed extraordinary.
"How about this meeting gift?"
The woman asked again.
Li Nanke shrugged: "To be honest, it's very average, not challenging at all. But if you rain red rain on an eight-year-old girl, you're going a little too far."
"So I'm here."
The mysterious woman spoke with a smile. "If you fail to solve the nightmare, then I will have no choice but to save the little girl. Fortunately, you performed well."
Li Nanke's eyes were deep: "Let's get down to business. Did Lin commit suicide or was he forced by you?"
The sky at this time has begun to brighten.
The surrounding vegetation and rocks seemed to be mosaic, changing from blue light to standard definition, and could be erased at any time.
"I never force others."
The figure of the mysterious woman swayed like a candle shadow blown by the wind.
Li Nanke raised his eyebrows: "So he committed suicide? But I don't understand."
"What don't you understand?"
"Although Lin Yuanwai suffered a change, he definitely wants to live."
"I just told him a piece of news." The mysterious woman was silent and spoke slowly. "Tell him that my mother passed away at the beginning of the year."
"Your mother is..."
"His first love."
"?"
Li Nanke couldn't help being stunned.
Now it makes sense.
Because he had asked Lin Yuanwai before why he married a brothel prostitute, and the other party said that Mei Xinger was somewhat similar to a woman he had liked when he was young.
So it is not difficult to see the status of the goddess who was his first love when he was young in his heart.
The mysterious woman said softly: "Uncle Lin used to be a bookkeeper next to my mother. After my mother married the leader, he took the initiative to go out to do tasks. Later, he settled in this small town.
In fact, we all know that he is tired of it, especially since he married a woman who looks somewhat similar to my mother. It is obvious that he plans to stay here forever.
He pinned his feelings for my mother on Mei Xing'er, but unfortunately, Mei Xing'er betrayed him after all. But he was ruthless enough to drive the mother and daughter to a dead end. "
Li Nanke remained silent.
He could tell that there was no lie in the woman's words, so he was sure that Lin Yuanwai committed suicide.
The woman he had placed his feelings on betrayed him, and the woman he loved most passed away. In addition, he was indeed being targeted by the Night Watch Division, which would probably affect the daughter of his first love goddess. Lin Yuanwai also lost the motivation to live. Suicide may be a relief.
"If he didn't commit suicide, would you have done it?"
Li Nanke asked the key point.
The mysterious woman did not answer directly: "Although he caused trouble, the Tianqiong Sect would not come to his door so quickly. I just happened to be in Dongqi County to do something, so I went to his house and found out what happened."
"The big case in three days?"
Li Nanke thought of the letter the other party gave him.
"That's right." The mysterious woman said. "A big case will happen in three days. Maybe it's not within your scope of responsibilities, but I hope you can get involved. Uncle Lin said you are very smart and may be able to help me, so I want to see how capable you are. "
Li Nanke looked at the vegetation that was starting to disappear around him and couldn't help but sneer. "I never said I would help you."
"This is not important, the important thing is..."
The woman's figure gradually dispersed along with the woods, and a few words floated in the air. "I have enough leverage to tempt you."
Um?
Why does this sound...something wrong?

On a slightly bumpy mountain path, a two-wheeled carriage was riding forward in the darkness of night.
The carriage is particularly majestic and luxurious, with its shafts, scales, compartments, etc. all painted with shiny black paint. It is constructed of iron planks on the outside and has movable mechanisms, which can effectively withstand attacks from arrows and flowing stones.
The carriage was surrounded by expert guards dressed in black attire and holding torches made of pine oil, who were always on alert.
Inside the carriage, a heater drives away the night chill.
Helan Xiaoxiao put her hands in front of the small window like a kitten, curiously looking at the elm trees planted along the road, her beautiful eyes shining.
"The Empress Dowager, you have been watching for a whole day, don't you feel tired?"
There was a smile on Ruyue's pretty and fox-like face.
Helan Xiaoxiao turned around, her big black eyes narrowed in two, and her sweet and waxy voice couldn't hide her excitement.
"Why are you tired? The outside world is so interesting. Do you know what I just saw? I saw a fox... maybe it was a fox... Anyway, it was very interesting."
"Okay, then you can continue reading. If you are tired, take a nap first."
Bai Ruyue's eyes looked lovingly, and she brushed away the bangs that were hanging down from the other person's forehead. "I have to rush on the road these two days, and I won't be able to sleep as peacefully as I did in the palace."
"Uh-huh."
Helan Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously and continued to look at the night scene outside.
Bai Ruyue smiled, picked up a piece of information sent not long ago, and read it again, her thin and curved eyebrows slightly frowned.
"In three days, the shadow guards escorting Princess Shanyun will rest temporarily in Dongqi County, Yuncheng. As a shadow guard Qianhu, why did Long Tianhe choose to stay in this place..."
Bai Ruyue's slender fingers gently tapped the surface of her legs. "Could it be a secret order from my father?"
The woman leaned on the carriage and kept thinking.
If it was the order given secretly by the father, it would be a bit tricky.
It shows that the father is still very concerned about that rumor, otherwise he would not be so eager to find Princess Shanyun.
Other forces are also watching secretly.
Whether in the court or in the world, Princess Shanyun is a favorite.
At this moment, the woman who was thinking hard suddenly frowned, her hands subconsciously tightened her skirt, and her dimples gradually turned rouge.
"Damn it! This strange disease started happening again."
Bai Ruyue secretly cursed herself for being negligent and forgetting the onset of the disease, and quickly locked the car door.
Helan Xiaoxiao looked back in confusion. "What's wrong, Xiao Ruyue, are you sleepy?"
"Turn around and don't look!"
Sweat was dripping from the woman's forehead, she put her hand into her skirt and spoke in a stern tone.
Helan Xiaoxiao was startled. She had never been scolded like this before. She felt a little aggrieved, but she still turned her head away and didn't look.
Looking at the scenery outside the window, the woman's eyes were caught.
The majestic mountains, the graceful elm trees, and a small river winding like a ribbon were something she had never seen in the palace before, and her whole heart seemed to fly out.
Imagine yourself turning into a little bird, flying freely.
I don’t know how long it took, but a sigh came out.
Helan Xiaoxiao turned around and looked around, but was confused when she found Bai Ruyue in front of her leaning tiredly against the wall of the compartment, her apricot eyes slightly narrowed, her slightly messy hair stuck to her cheeks with sweat, looking indescribably charming.
"Xiao Ruyue, are you really tired? Why don't you lean on my lap and sleep for a while?"
Helan Xiaoxiao looked concerned.
"fine."
Bai Ruyue forced a smile and slowly opened her eyes.
There was a hazy mist in those full eyes.
At this time, Helan Xiaoxiao suddenly covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise: "Xiao Ruyue, you spilled the tea on the ground!"
