In the evening.
Liu Yidou walked all the way through remote places.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Liu Yidou hid his whereabouts and unknowingly arrived within the scope of the cabinet.
Compared to his previous inexperience, Liu Yidou now has a better understanding of the cabinet.
In particular, Liu Yidou knew clearly the basic residences of the cabinet managers.
At the moment, Liu Yidou was cautious all the way, and after half a stick of incense, he finally arrived outside the attic where Manager Zhao was.
According to Liu Yidou's inference, the current manager Zhao has not returned yet. According to the rules of the cabinet, all managers must gather together at nightfall every night to count the personnel.
This is to prevent any unlucky little eunuch from dying in the hands of the empress.
At the same time, it can also prevent any empress in the cabinet from escaping.
Now, logically speaking, there should be no one in Manager Zhao's attic.
However, in order to prevent an accident from happening, Liu Yidou did not take action immediately. Instead, he picked up a stone and threw it towards the window of the room where Manager Zhao was.
Poof!
The flying stones passed through the window paper and shot directly into the house.
Liu Yidou stood outside the attic and waited for a long time. After making sure that there was no movement at all, he plucked up the courage and tiptoed to the door.
Seeing no one around, Liu Yidou opened the door a crack.
As a general manager, where should I lock the door when I go out on weekdays?
After all, looking at the entire Tongque Terrace, which impudent little eunuch would dare to break into the attic of the general manager?
Liu Yidou arrived at the attic with ease.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Yidou searched around.
Half an hour later, I finally found something under the bed!
"Why is there a mechanism here?"
What Liu Yidou didn't expect was that the layout in Manager Zhao's room was exactly the same as that of the ladies in the cabinet.
On the bed, a similar button caught Liu Yidou's eyes.
Liu Yidou subconsciously reached out and pressed it, and a floor tile cracked in the middle of the room.
Faced with such a familiar scene, Liu Yidou stepped forward immediately.
But what surprised Liu Yidou was that the things buried in this deep pit were very different from those in the empress' room.
There is no black air filling the deep pit.
Some are just an inconspicuous little clay pot.
With some curiosity, Liu Yidou stepped forward and opened the mouth of the clay pot, and a bloody smell poured into Liu Yidou's nose.
"Ahem!"
Faced with such stimulation, Liu Yidou couldn't help coughing.
And the scene before us undoubtedly proves what the previous manager said!
Manager Zhao seems to be secretly collecting human blood.
However, what is the purpose of this guy storing his blood here?
Also, what is the connection between this guy and Cao Ying?
Faced with the reality before him, Liu Yidou immediately overturned his previous guesses. In his opinion, the amount of blood alone was enough to infer that Manager Zhao was not the murderer of the previous father-in-law.
Otherwise, how could this be all that was left based on that man’s blood alone?
In this way, this matter is still closely related to Cao Ying.
However, the similar techniques between the two made Liu Yidou vaguely feel that perhaps the two had the same purpose of collecting blood.
As long as we can know the secret behind all these actions of Manager Zhao, we may be able to see through Cao Ying's hidden malice.
Thinking of this, Liu Yidou's heart ignited some fighting spirit.
But before he could start his next plan, a cold voice suddenly echoed in the room.
"Eunuch Huang, is it a little too unreasonable for you to sneak into my room when there is no one around?"
Manager Zhao, why is he back?
In just an instant, Liu Yidou realized the owner of the voice.
The next second, Liu Yidou stood up quickly, turned around, and looked in the direction of the sound.
But at this moment, there was a dark shadow on the bed.
The black shadow had a smile on his face, and he was clearly Manager Zhao.
At this moment, Manager Zhao looked at Liu Yidou with clear eyes and a somewhat cold look.
Under Liu Yidou's gaze, Manager Zhao gently licked the corner of his mouth.
"Eunuch Liu Yidou, there are some secrets. If you find out, you must die!"
Hearing what Manager Zhao said, Liu Yidou's whole body was tense.
The next second, Liu Yidou quickly changed direction and just wanted to escape from the attic.
In Liu Yidou's view, he now looks like Huang Xuan.
In this attic, he cannot express his true strength. Facing Eunuch Zhao's powerful strength, he may not be able to cope with it.
But it is extremely easy to escape.
As long as he leaves the attic and comes into the public eye, relying on his identity, even Eunuch Zhao will not dare to do anything to him!
In the blink of an eye, Liu Yidou had arrived at the attic door.
Facing the nearby exit, Liu Yidou did not take action immediately, but turned back to look at Eunuch Zhao on the bed.
Following this action, Liu Yidou was stunned on the spot. He had already stretched out his hand halfway, but quickly retracted it.
Manager Zhao's calmness made Liu Yidou vaguely aware of something unusual.
The other party clearly saw that he was about to escape, but did not stop him. Such abnormal behavior can only show that the other party expected that he would not be able to escape from here!
Sure enough, just as Liu Yidou retracted his palm.
A soft sound came from in front of Liu Yidou.
But he saw a dagger flashing with cold light thrust into the house from outside.
If Liu Yidou had not retracted his palm just now, I am afraid that just this blow would have completely frozen Liu Yidou's arm.
"There's another person!"
Faced with such a change, Liu Yidou's face darkened, and an idea came to his mind.
Sure enough, just as he jumped behind him, the door suddenly opened wide, revealing a familiar figure of Liu Yidou.
"It's you!"
For a moment, Liu Yidou stood between Eunuch Zhao and the mysterious man, his eyes widened as he stared at the door.
Before this, Liu Yidou never imagined that Eunuch Zhao's assistant was actually the father-in-law whom he had entrusted to monitor all the managers!
"Now I understand. No wonder Eunuch Zhao discovered my behavior. It turns out there was a collusion between the two!"
"It must be this guy who informed Eunuch Zhao of my whereabouts. Perhaps the purpose of the two of them is to lead me here and then silence me!"
In just a moment, Liu Yidou had already guessed the malicious intentions of the two.
But as his thoughts broadened, a question popped up in Liu Yidou's mind.
In Liu Yidou's memory, the contact between him and the two was just a routine meeting.
Logically speaking, there is absolutely no enmity between the two parties.
What is the reason?
Can the two of them take the risk of being exposed and deceive themselves here?
"Why did you do this?"
With some doubts, Liu Yidou immediately spoke out the biggest question in his mind.
But Eunuch Zhao's answer made Liu Yidou look surprised and stood there for a long time without regaining consciousness.
"Because of what? Because you killed someone you shouldn't have killed!"
