Shopkeeper Shen was intimidated by the King of Yan's aura, his body trembling slightly, but his steps did not retreat at all.

Prince Yan lost his patience, snorted and reached out to grab Manager Shen by the collar.

"Your Highness."

"Dad, what happened?"

Jiang Yueyang's voice and another voice sounded at the same time.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a girl in a white dress with a veil on her face.

Jiang Yueyang secretly looked at Chen Zhiyi's figure and confirmed that she was the one wearing the black veil.

When Shopkeeper Shen saw his daughter coming back, he secretly thought something was wrong.

Ke Ming came over and asked, "Manager Shen, didn't you just say that your daughter went out?"

Shopkeeper Shen shuddered, "This... Xiaomin..."

He hesitated, not knowing how to explain it.

"Your Excellency, I did go out before, and came back through the back door not long ago. My father didn't know about it." Chen Zhiyi explained calmly.

"Back door? My people from the Ministry of Justice are guarding the front and back doors of Huichun Hall. There will be no one to inform me when Miss Shen returns."

Chen Zhiyi said calmly: "When I came back, I didn't see any officials. It should be that the master hasn't come yet."

"Why is Miss Shen wearing a veil?" Ke Ming asked again.

Chen Zhiyi raised her hand and stroked her cheek, a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes, "I am ugly and afraid of scaring others, so I have been wearing a veil since I was a child. I hope you can forgive me."

Ke Ming was about to say something, but King Yan spoke impatiently: "Ke Ming, how long are you going to keep talking nonsense? At your speed of searching, you won't be able to finish the search before dark."

"Come on, Jiang Yueyang, let's go search the backyard. They are too slow." Prince Yan grabbed Jiang Yueyang's arm and walked past Shopkeeper Shen towards the backyard.

“Sir…” Shopkeeper Shen hurriedly chased after him.

"Dad." Chen Zhiyi's eyes were smiling, "The adults want to search, we should cooperate."

Jiang Yueyang turned around when she heard the voice, frowned and asked: [Xiaogua, why is she not panicking at all? ]

【Because she is sure you won't be able to find the cellar.】

As soon as the system's voice fell, Jiang Yueyang and King Yan entered the backyard, and did not see the shock in Shen Zhiyi's eyes.

Shopkeeper Shen didn't care about anything else and hurriedly chased into the backyard.

As soon as he entered, he saw the officials brought by King Yan searching room by room, and heard the system ask: [Where do you think the entrance to the cellar is? ]

"Sir, what exactly are you looking for when you searched my Huichun Hall? You said that Wutou was found at the crime scene and you wanted to verify the whereabouts of Wutou. I don't think that's the case at all!"

Jiang Yueyang ignored Shopkeeper Shen and looked around, thinking about the possible location of the cellar entrance.

Suddenly, she saw a well and thought it might be the entrance to the cellar, so she walked over.

As a result, when I got closer, I saw that there was water in the well.

[Host, this well is not the entrance.] The system's voice was filled with laughter.

Jiang Yueyang curled her lips, [I saw it.]

[I know, the entrance to the cellar must be under Shen Zhiyi's room.] She said as she walked towards a room.

“Sir, if you continue like this, I will go to the Ministry of Justice and sue you for abusing your power and searching private homes without reason!” Shopkeeper Shen reached out to grab Jiang Yueyang’s shoulders.

"What do you want to do?" Prince Yan, who was following Jiang Yueyang, grabbed Manager Shen's arm.

Seeing this, Guyu withdrew the hand that was squeezing Manager Shen’s shoulder.

Shopkeeper Shen groaned in pain, "Sir, I didn't mean to do anything, but your random search really frightened me."

King Yan snorted coldly and released his arm.

At this time, Ke Ming and Shen Zhiyi also entered the backyard, along with several officials.

The system said: [Host, there is no need to look in the room. The entrance to the cellar is not in any room.]

[I won't look for it anymore. Just tell me where the entrance to the cellar is? ] Jiang Yueyang's face was puffed up.

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Shen quietly retreated to Chen Zhiyi's side, "Zhiyi, there must be no one outside, go out and watch."

He secretly winked at Shen Zhiyi, signaling her to find a chance to escape.

Shen Zhiyi stared at him deeply for a while, but as soon as he turned around, Ke Ming said, "Don't worry, Shopkeeper Shen. My people from the Ministry of Justice will help you keep an eye on the outside, and nothing will be lost."

"That being said, the shop is ours after all, and I feel a little bit..."

Ke Ming looked displeased, "Manager Shen, do you think that people from my Ministry of Justice will covet your Huichuntang's things?"

"I have no such intention, but..."

"Then there is no need to say more." Ke Ming was in no mood to listen to him continue, "I still have something to ask Miss Shen, please stay here and don't go anywhere!"

As soon as the words fell, the system's voice came, [Host, do you think that banyan tree is big? ]

【big. 】

[You mean the entrance to the cellar is underground on the other side of the banyan tree? ]

System: [No, it’s underground inside the banyan tree. The trunk of the banyan tree has been hollowed out in half.]

Hearing this, Jiang Yueyang couldn't help but look up at the lush branches. [Even though the trunk was hollowed out, it can still grow so lush. This banyan tree has a strong vitality! ]

The system was speechless. [Host, is this the time to lament about this? Hurry up and find a reason to go check it out.]

【This is just a small idea. 】

After saying this, Jiang Yueyang feigned surprise and exclaimed, "That banyan tree is really big!"

As she spoke, she walked towards the big banyan tree, "Shopkeeper Shen, how many years have you planted this banyan tree?"

Prince Yan followed closely behind, while Ke Ming kept a close eye on Shen Zhiyi's every move.

Shopkeeper Shen followed behind to explain, "Sir, the banyan tree... the banyan tree was not planted by me. It was planted by the previous owner of this house. I don't know how many years it has been."

After a while, Jiang Yueyang walked to the big banyan tree.

She walked around the tree trunk, feeling for the cut, but after walking around in circles, she still couldn't find the cut.

Jiang Yueyang asked suspiciously: [Xiaogua, are you mistaken? There is no sign that this banyan tree has been cut? ]

The system's silence was deafening. [Host, you should get a pair of myopic glasses.]

Jiang Yueyang: [……]

[Host, take a closer look. The cut is right under your palm.]

Jiang Yueyang moved her hand away, squinted her eyes and took a closer look, only then did she see a tiny cut.

[How did they do it with such a small incision? ]

[Don't worry about this, open it quickly and find evidence to close the case.] The system urged.

Jiang Yueyang looked at King Yan, "Your Highness, there seems to be something wrong with this banyan tree?"

"There is a problem." King Yan went closer to take a look.

"Well, it seems to be empty inside." Jiang Yueyang pointed to the incision, "Look here."

When King Yan saw the cut, he drew out his dagger without saying a word and pried open the thick bark along the cut, revealing a square opening.
