Captain Liu looked down and saw a small purple flame burning under his robe, which was slowly devouring his official uniform.

He hurriedly took off his robe and threw it to the ground along with the jade belt. The terrifying thing was that the purple flame not only devoured his robe, but also the white jade inlaid in the belt, which turned into ashes. What was even more terrifying was that the purple flame spread to the carpet.

Kan Chaoyan quickly picked up the teapot and poured water onto the purple flames. Not only did the fire not go out, it spread faster.

"What's going on with this fire? Why can't even water put it out?"

Captain Liu quickly ran to the yard, scooped up a pile of soil and sprinkled it on the purple flames, but it still couldn't be extinguished.

"Go find the Imperial Master."

As soon as Kan Chaoyan finished speaking, there was a puff and the purple flame disappeared without a trace.

The two were speechless.

They searched the entire office and only breathed a sigh of relief when they were sure the fire was really out.

Kan Chaoyan frowned: "What on earth is going on with this purple flame? How could it burn your official robes?"

Captain Liu was also puzzled: "I don't know why it appeared on my body."

"Have you ever come into contact with anything strange?"

Captain Liu thought for a moment and shook his head: "No. After leaving the court, I went straight back to the capital's guardhouse and worked in the secretarial office. After lunch, I went to the prison gate to wait for Mu Nanjin. Ah, I remember, Mu Nanjin wiped his hands with my official uniform."

Kan Chaoyan was puzzled: "Why did she use your official uniform to wipe her hands?"

Captain Liu told the whole story.

"Are you saying that Mu Nanjin had the back of his hand licked by someone in prison?"

"Um."

Captain Liu nodded.

Kan Chaoyan narrowed his eyes and thought for a while: "It should be the thing stuck on the back of Mu Nanjin's hand that is causing trouble."

"Then why is Mu Nanjin okay? And why did she ask me to come find you?"

"The fact that she's fine shows that she's not an ordinary person. As for why I asked you to come to me..." Kan Chaoyan couldn't help laughing, "Maybe she was mad at me for handing such a dangerous mission to a little girl like her, so she deliberately let me see what happens when she's fed in the dungeon."

Captain Liu was so angry that his teeth itched: "This little girl is quite cruel. She is not afraid that the purple flame will burn me and burn my whole body."

"She must have been sure she couldn't hurt you before she did this."

Captain Liu was curious: "Master Kan, who is the person who licked the back of Mu Nanjin's hand? Why is there such a terrible flame? If the other party has such great ability, we can't lock him up at all, and there is no reason for him to be locked up in the dungeon."

Kan Chaoyan shook his head: "I only know that there are six weirdos locked up in the dungeon. They are very dangerous. Jailers often die in their hands when delivering meals. I don't want to see anyone die in there anymore, so I thought of letting Mu Nanjin give it a try. I think since Mu Nanjin can deal with people that even the national teacher can't deal with, then she should be able to deal with six weirdos, and she knows a lot of things that we don't know, so it's perfect for her to deliver meals. Now it seems that I was right to choose her to deliver meals."

He sighed helplessly, "It's a pity that she only delivered prison food once and then had to lend it to the people in the Right Courtyard. I'm worried about her being with Deng Xingchao. You should follow Deng Xingchao and the others to keep an eye on her for me tomorrow."

"I feel like if I stay with her for one day, my life will be shortened by half a year." Captain Liu said unhappily, "It's all because of her that I'm pissed off."

Kan Chaoyan burst out laughing.

Mu Nanjin's true feelings are indeed very irritating.
