"what is going on?"

A loud shout suddenly rang out from a basement.

Everyone under the table was silent. They looked at each other, wanting to explain but not daring to be the first to speak out, so they could only communicate with their eyes.

——You go ahead!

——No, I dare not, let him go!

——Yes, you go!

——Get out of here and stop talking about me!

Seeing that they were still in the mood to slack off, the man walked around the room, his fierce gaze fixed on their backs, which frightened them and even made their eyes quiet.

"What? Are one or two of them deaf?"

"Colonel," someone finally stood up.

"Who is the colonel?"

"Sir, we don't know what happened. When we received the news, Master Jiang was already dumbfounded."

The man stammered and didn't dare to look up at the colonel.

"How could a good person suddenly become stupid?" The colonel slammed the table hard, scanning everyone with sharp eyes, "How dare you poison him!"

"Sir, it's unfair. We didn't do it. How could we have the guts to do that?" Everyone was so scared that they fell to their knees.

"Hmph, I think you are quite bold." The colonel threw a booklet at someone with force.

"Don't think I don't know what you did in private. Now I give you a chance to make amends. Find the young master, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

The colonel yelled this and left.

Only after he had completely left did everyone dare to breathe loudly, and then looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

There was silence in the air, so quiet that even the sound of one's own breathing became clear.

After a moment, someone broke the silence, "Which of you poisoned the young master?"

"Who else could it be? It's him." The speaker was Xiao Ma, his hand pointing at someone.

Everyone looked in the direction his hand was pointing, and the person being pointed at was Xiao Li, who had just been hit by the colonel with the pamphlet.

They looked at each other. Impossible?

Someone stepped forward and asked Xiao Li in a gentle voice, "Xiao Li, was it really you who poisoned the young master?"

"Nonsense, how could I poison the young master! Besides, I don't have that kind of poison." Xiao Li retorted sternly.

"Really?" Xiao Ma picked up the booklet, patted it and put it back on the table.

"Young Master was quite normal when he went to see Tan Jingyi, but he became stupid after staying there for a day. You didn't poison him, so how do you say Young Master became stupid?"

"How would I know? I wasn't there."

"You weren't there, but Tan Jingyi is yours."

Everyone was in an uproar, and then they all blamed Xiao Li.

“It’s you!”

"Xiao Li, how could you go against the Colonel's orders and place someone next to the Young Master?"

"Xiao Li, you were the one who poisoned me, right?"

"You said it wasn't you who poisoned me, but it was obviously you!"

Xiao Li stood up angrily when he heard this. "What's wrong with me planting someone? Don't you have anyone?"

He pointed at Xiao Ma and said, "Don't think I don't know that Wang Lili is your distant cousin."

He pointed at another person and said, "And you, isn't Hao Xiaoting yours?"

Xiao Li looked around at everyone and said, "This is ridiculous. You two have the nerve to criticize me, but you don't have the nerve to criticize yourselves!"

Xiao Ma retorted: "We did plant someone there, but we didn't poison the young master!"

"If you say no, then no. If I say no, then I'm lying? Isn't it obvious that you are targeting me?" Xiao Li sneered.

"Let me tell you, Tan Jingyi is favored, do I need to drug her? Use your pig brains to think about it!"

After he finished speaking, he kicked the chair away and walked away.

Xiao Ma muttered softly: "Who knows what you are thinking."

The others looked at each other and what he said made sense.

The gentle embrace and pillow talk are indeed very useful means.

However, the young master did indeed become stupid there.

But Tan Jingyi died again.

There is no evidence after death.

They are now overwhelmed and their minds are in a mess.

Did Xiao Li send Tan Jingyi to poison the young master and then kill Tan Jingyi, or was Tan Jingyi bribed to poison the young master and then killed?

Or maybe, Tan Jingyi actually knew nothing, and someone poisoned the young master and killed Tan Jingyi, and then put the blame on Xiao Li?

Which of these three assumptions is true?

How are they going to prove it?

I really have no idea.

But the most important thing at the moment is that the young master is missing. How are they going to find him?

This... they also have no idea where to start.

Who on earth is so powerful that he could take the young master away from home quietly and silently?

Even if the young master is stupid, there is no way he will be taken away obediently.

Unless... the young master left on his own?

So how did he leave without alerting anyone?

Did the young master know something?

Besides this, there is another question: has the young master's identity been exposed?

If so, who exposed it?

If not, why choose the young master?

Or is it really just a coincidence?

All this happened just because the young master offended someone. Is this that person's revenge on the young master?

"Well," someone raised their hand.

"Swish——" Everyone looked at him.

The man swallowed and continued, "How about we express our ideas and discuss them with everyone?"

This is a good idea.

By pooling our wisdom, we may be able to identify the suspicious person.

So they came out with their thoughts one after another.
