Chapter 494 Someone Who Lost His Wife 3
The young eunuch said hesitantly, "This is what happened. Someone from our East Depot sent a message today. They said that after numerous reports, their subordinates have brought up a case. This servant said that it might be related to Madam. Boss, didn't you say that anything related to Madam must not be left out? That's why this servant rushed over..."
Xiao Lezi's expression changed. "Why don't you just ignore it and tell me what happened first!"
Upon hearing this, the young eunuch immediately pulled out a note from his pocket. "It's here. It says that in a county far down below, the county magistrate and the entire county government office were massacred. Everyone inside was killed. The case was discovered this morning, and they say it's already been reported."
At this moment, Xiao Lezi was not interested in the murder of a county magistrate or even the entire county government office. To be precise, even if all the people in the capital were dead, he would not be interested in finding out. He just wanted to know how this news was related to his wife.
After unfolding the letter in his hand, Xiao Lezi's expression tightened after reading it. His dark eyes darted around quickly as he asked hurriedly, "Are you sure the information is reliable?"
The young eunuch hurriedly said, "Huangtu County up here is a poor and remote place, very far from the capital. The highest official is only a small county magistrate, and he is also a minor official. He is not within the surveillance range of the East Factory. This news came from the lowest level, or it was passed on by an East Factory informant!"
If the news from this poor place didn't have some connection with the lady, even the lowest-level factory guards wouldn't pick it up!
Xiao Lezi said, "Our East Factory has strict rules. Even if they want to be informants, we don't want everyone. You wait here. I'm going to report to the master first!"
At times like this, they would not let go of even the slightest bit of information.
Xiao Lezi quickly walked up to Ning Cuo, took a deep breath to suppress his fear, and then quickly said, "Master, here is a piece of news. I think there is something wrong, and it may be related to Madam..."
Ning Cuo, who had been keeping his head down, finally raised his face slowly after hearing this, but scared Xiao Lezi so much that he almost screamed out.
The man's eerie and beautiful face slowly emerged from beneath his hair. When he raised his eyes, which usually looked eerie and beautiful, they were so dark that not even a trace of white could be seen. His entire eyes seemed to be swallowed by the bottomless darkness, looking weird and grotesque!
Especially in this dark night, the man's overly delicate and flawless pale face, and overly bright scarlet cold lips, looked like an evil creature that had been possessed by a demon and drunk blood!
But Ningcuo seemed to be unaware of it. His voice, hoarse from not having eaten for a long time, was filled with terrifying syllables that made people's skin stand on end. "Speak!"
Xiao Lezi didn't dare look at the man's expression. He swallowed hard and spoke more cautiously, "Master, there's a county government office in Huangtu County that was destroyed. Someone left a rabbit pattern at the crime scene. Look, the pattern has been traced below."
Ning Cuo raised his overly pale hand, holding the paper between his fingertips and looking over. Then, his pupils, which had been horrifyingly motionless, finally contracted, and the black energy quickly dissipated from them. Then, the man's cold mouth curled up, and the strange and bizarre feeling of abnormality instantly receded. "This is the mark that little thing left for me~"
