Of course, Jiuer took several detours and changed her face several times along the way.
Although General Duan's mind was not clear, it was obviously not a last-ditch effort as rumored.
The General's Mansion is not a dilapidated place.
Jiuer did this to avoid exposing her true identity, in order to prevent others from focusing their attention on the General's Mansion because of her and ruining Duan Rong's plans.
However, this deliberate delay only delayed time. When Jiuer finally changed back to her original appearance and arrived at the Su Mansion, Su Jingxing was about to go out.
At the same time, thirty skilled guards were ready to fight.
Jiuer felt something was wrong when she saw this situation, "Hey, are you guys going out?"
He immediately approached them and said, "Oh, I was thinking of going out for a walk, too. I'll go with you guys!"
The thirty guards, who were used to it, tacitly ignored it.
Su Jingxing looked at her, and Jiuer smiled at him with her eyes curved.
Su Jingxing said in a gentle voice, "I just received an urgent report that two girls have disappeared in two secluded manors in our Su Mansion. I'll take people to check it out."
Jiuer was surprised for a moment. She didn't expect that he would tell her such things about his "family". She immediately felt happy after giving him some sunshine.
"Disappeared for no reason? Then I came at the perfect time! I'm the best at finding people. Let's go, there's no time to lose, don't delay."
After saying this, he pulled Su Jingxing's sleeve and was about to walk out.
Guards: Miss Jiu, you are always looking for opportunities to take advantage of our master!
Su Jingxing glanced at the sleeve that Jiu'er was holding, and paused, "It's more than 200 miles away from Kyoto, it will be dangerous."
"More than 200 miles?" Jiu'er began to calculate. "If we travel overnight by horseback, we should be able to arrive by tomorrow afternoon."
"Miss Jiu..."
Because he didn't roll up his sleeves, Jiu'er took advantage of the situation and grabbed his arm, "Let's go."
"..."
In the end, Jiuer set off with the main group!
However, because of Jiuer's joining, the original journey on horseback has now changed to Su Jingxing and Jiuer riding in a carriage.
Although the speed of the carriage was not slow, it was definitely slower than riding a horse.
In the carriage, Jiuer asked sincerely, "Su Jingxing, what exactly is the situation of the missing girl in the manor you mentioned?"
Ask more clearly so that I can help find someone.
Su Jingxing's dark eyes narrowed slightly, "Disappeared out of thin air."
"Disappeared out of thin air?" Jiuer's eyes widened. "How can a person disappear out of thin air?"
The icy man was amused by her exaggerated expression, and a slight smile flashed across his eyes.
"The letter said he was still there when I went to bed, but I couldn't find him the next day. I searched the entire manor and the surrounding area."
"The farmhands on night watch didn't notice anything unusual, nor did they see them go out."
Jiuer asked, "Those girls probably don't know martial arts either?"
"No, she's just an ordinary girl working in the farm."
This matter is somewhat weird and strange...
Jiuer glanced at Su Jingxing. Could it be that those people who coveted Su Jingxing had set up a trap for him?
I have to say Jiuer is very sharp.
Kyoto, Jinchao Tower.
Duan Rong, who transformed into Qian Qian, naturally knew the news that Jiuer had sneaked into the general's mansion today. At this moment, his personal secret guard came in.
"My Lord, Miss Jiu..."
Duan Rong said lazily, "Why, she went to the Prime Minister's Mansion after all?"
The secret guard lowered his head even more, "No... Miss Jiu and Master Su Jingxing have gone out of the city."
He quickly added, "It seems that something happened in the Su Mansion's farm, and a young girl working in the farm has disappeared."
The laziness in Duan Rong's eyes suddenly turned into a stern look, "The girl is missing?"
"It shouldn't be wrong."
This secret guard was Duan Rong's confidant, so he naturally knew what his master was thinking.
In the past three months, there have been several cases of young girls disappearing out of nowhere in the suburbs of Kyoto.
However, the girls who disappeared were of ordinary identities, and were all inconspicuous poor farm girls.
And there weren't many people involved, only six or seven in total.
Also, because the missing girls were unmarried, many parents had to swallow their anger and even felt ashamed to report the case for fear of ruining their reputation and bringing shame to their family.
There are very few people who report the case, but the county government has so many cases every day that missing cases are not at the top of the list.
Because no matter how you look at it, it's just an ordinary missing or kidnapping case.
This kind of thing cannot be completely avoided no matter where it happens.
So it didn't attract much attention.
Only those families living near the accident should keep a closer eye on their daughters and children.
"My Lord, do you suspect that the disappearance of the girl in Su Mansion's manor may be related to the previous incidents?"
Duan Rong sneered meaningfully, "We haven't found any clues about the previous disappearances so far."
The secret guards reacted and realized that indeed, their "eyes" were everywhere, but they could not find any clues in the missing case. How could it be an ordinary missing case?
Moreover, the person behind the scenes who came to provoke Master Su must not be because he wants to die, he must be doing it on purpose!
Duan Rong said mysteriously, "This time the other party took the initiative to deliver it to the door... No wonder Su Jingxing wanted to go there in person. Nothing ventured, nothing gained."
He gritted his teeth and said, "But Murong Jiu..."
Why is she joining in the fun!
She didn't even know who was behind this and what their purpose was. Just because Su Jingxing was around, did she think there was no danger at all?
How could Jiuer not join in the fun.
At first, she just wanted to stick with Su Jingxing and spend as much time with him as possible, but when Jiuer arrived at the farm where the incident happened in the evening of the next day, her interest was really piqued.
When they arrived at the destination, Jiuer didn't even have much rest. After eating and drinking, she followed with great interest to explore the entire farm.
Zhuangtou is a capable middle-aged man, but at this moment, there is fatigue and guilt on his face.
"Master, I failed to take good care of them."
Su Jingxing said calmly, "I don't blame you. Take us to the rooms of the missing girls first."
"Yes, Master."
Although this farm is not very big, the treatment and conditions for people working in the farm are not bad.
The girls who are responsible for collecting have their own rooms.
Among the guards that Su Jingxing brought this time, half of them are experts in finding people who are good at tracing clues.
While everyone was looking around, Jiuer was also looking around.
"Uncle Zhuangtou, has anyone moved in this room?"
The village head, who was flattered to be called uncle, quickly replied, "No. We didn't move or touch anything. We only opened the door and window from the outside."
The village head paused for a moment and said, "Because I didn't see them coming out to eat or work the next day, I sent someone to look for them."
"No matter how hard the people who came to look for them knocked on the door, no one answered, and they pushed the door open. Everyone was worried, so they unbolted the door from the outside and opened it. When they came in, the room was empty, but the door and windows were indeed closed from the inside..."
Jiu Er curled her lips, "That is, it can be considered as missing in the secret room."
"Yes." The well-trained village head also had some white sweat on his back.
Jiuer walked around the room again, and then came to Su Jingxing with a smile, "I know how they disappeared."
