"Miss Jiu."
Without waiting for Jiuer to continue, Su Jingxing calmly changed his words.
Jiuer: “…”
It doesn't sound any better.
Su Jingxing looked at her, his dark eyes without any other unnecessary emotions as he spoke, "Miss Wang Er disappeared, and the people and spies planted by various parties in the Prime Minister's Mansion did not notice it at the first time. This also applies to me and Duan Rong's people."
He looked very calm when he mentioned Duan Rong, and did not avoid the possibility that there might be some connection between him and Duan Rong.
Jiuer is most concerned about Wang Xiaojin now, and she immediately gets into the state.
Su Jingxing added, "Miss Jiu, you should have gone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to have a look. The disappearance of Miss Wang Er is indeed very similar to the disappearance of the women in my previous farm."
Jiuer raised her eyebrows. "It's similar, but that doesn't mean it's right. The disappearance of those farm girls on your farm, now that I think about it, the other party could have done it more secretly, just like Xiao Jin's disappearance, or like those other missing farm girls."
Her eyes were deep, "The disappearance of the woman from your farm seems more like a trick, a game by the other party."
"I want to know if there are other girls missing recently. Is it just Xiao Jin, or is it..."
"In addition to Miss Wang Er, five other girls went missing in Kyoto last night." Su Jingxing took over the conversation.
Jiu'er's eyes flickered, "Whose girls are these?"
"Like Miss Wang Er, they are either rich or noble. So for the sake of the girls' reputation, the girls' families are not willing to report to the police for the time being, and are only looking for them privately and quietly."
Jiuer held her chin up and thought for a moment before saying, "Are you familiar with those girls? Do you know what they have in common?"
Su Jingxing's gaze fell on the faint blue color in her eyes that showed that she had not rested well, and his black eyes were deep.
"They are all different in appearance, character, and talent. The only thing they have in common is that they are all sixteen years old this year."
"With me..."
"Miss Jiu," Jiu'er just started to speak, Su Jingxing stopped her, "I will have someone send you all the relevant information I found out later. Now I will have someone send you back to rest."
Jiuer felt a little sleepy.
After all, I haven't had any rest since I got off the carriage.
Su Jingxing said that there was nothing wrong with this method itself.
but!
Jiuer suddenly moved closer to him, staring into Su Jingxing's eyes without blinking, "Su Jingxing, are you really that angry with me?"
She hadn't even sat down yet, but he was already eager to see her off.
Su Jingxing looked at her, and there was still no extra emotion in the depths of his black eyes.
"Okay." Jiuer stood up and took two steps back.
"Then I'm leaving. You don't have to ask anyone to take me away. It's broad daylight, and even though I'm only sixteen years old, I don't think it's that easy for me to be captured."
Then, Jiuer really left.
He didn't look back at Su Jingxing again.
After walking out of the Su Mansion, Jiuer looked back at the way she came.
Of course she wouldn't be angry, but now Wang Xiaojin's safety was much more urgent than her own matter of getting Su Jingxing.
Jiuer simply ignored all the gazes in the dark and called a carriage to return to the general's mansion.
Just after Jiuer got on the carriage, standing in the shadow of a corner not far away were the pair of strange old killers who had assassinated her before.
"Old woman, why are you staring at Duan Ajiu? Didn't the employer ask us to find the 'goddess'? Before, we thought it was like looking for a needle in a haystack, but now, the person who is most likely to be the goddess is almost in front of us. If we don't go to Pingnan County to stare at the goddess..."
The old woman hidden in the black hood laughed, "You stinky men are always blinded by the surface."
The strange old man refused to accept.
The old woman laughed strangely again, "That Wu Hai Goddess does look a lot like the person our employer wants us to find, but Duan Jiu, apart from her unknown identity, doesn't she also look like the so-called 'goddess' in my opinion? Don't you think Duan Jiu is not special and strange enough?"
"Duan Ajiu could be the goddess?" The strange old man was skeptical, but, "Then how do we tell the employer that we have found the 'goddess'?"
"Of course it's the Wu Hai Goddess."
The strange old man choked. "So, is she still the Wu Hai Goddess?"
"Of course, what else do you think?" The old woman's giggle was creepy.
This is the instinct of a killer. Since Wu Hai Goddess is the most similar to the person the employer is looking for, of course she will use Wu Hai Goddess to complete the task.
Because Duan Ajiu gave her a much more ominous feeling than the Wuhai Goddess...
On the other side, when Jiuer returned to the general's mansion.
In the courtyard of the general's mansion where Jiuer lived, Banxia, who was originally dozing off, was surprised and happy to see Jiuer appear in front of her.
"Miss Jiu, you're back!"
Jiuer smiled and said, "Banxia, help me prepare some food and water for bathing. Also, when I have almost finished eating and cleaning up, please help me call Butler Yan over."
Banxia was about to run to prepare things when she was stunned. "Miss Jiu, Butler Yan left three days ago."
Jiu'er was still a little unresponsive, "He went out to do something?"
Banxia shook her head and said in confusion, "No, it's Steward Yan who is no longer the steward of the General's Mansion. I don't know where he went. Now our General's Mansion has a new steward named Lu in charge."
Jiuer was stunned for a moment.
"It's about time, please call Butler Lu over for me."
After Jiuer finished washing and eating, Banxia also called the new housekeeper over.
This new butler seems to be the complete opposite of Butler Yan.
Butler Yan is thin and has few emotions, giving people a cold and indifferent feeling.
This housekeeper Lu is white and plump, and he smiles all the time. When he smiles, his eyes almost become slits. He looks like a very cheerful and kind person.
Butler Lu smiled and said, "What instructions does the young lady have?"
"..."
Jiu Er also smiled and said, "I don't dare to take your orders. But I want to ask you something, Steward Lu."
Butler Lu's smiling eyes seemed to have never opened. "It's about Miss Wang Er, right? We only got the news this morning, and we didn't find much today. What we can confirm now is..."
…
After Butler Lu left, Banxia sighed beside him.
"Butler Lu seems to have a good temper, completely different from Butler Yan who is cold and reserved."
Jiuer sighed in her heart.
Since Butler Lu and Butler Yan were brought by Duan Rong to the General's Mansion as butlers, there must be no problem with their abilities and character.
However, when it comes to good temper, she thinks Butler Yan is better.
Butler Lu is much more unfathomable than Butler Yan.
Jiuer stretched and said, "I'm so tired. I'm going to have a good sleep. Banxia, don't let anyone disturb me, and don't call me for dinner."
"Yes, don't worry, Miss Jiu, I will not let anyone disturb your rest. I will also save some delicious food for you to eat when you wake up!" Banxia said that she would definitely complete the task.
Jiuer slept really soundly and recovered her strength.
After waking up, Jiuer put some makeup on her face, put on a nightgown and slipped out of the general's mansion.
However, before they had completely walked past the lotus pond planted with purple water lilies, the plump white face of Butler Lu, with his eyes narrowed in a smile, suddenly appeared under the moonlight.
Butler Lu greeted her respectfully and friendly, "Hello, Madam. You can't sleep, so take a walk."
Jiuer: “…”
"Butler Lu, I need to go out and do something. Is that okay?"
Butler Lu made way for her, "Of course. Madam, you are the master, so you can do whatever you want."
Jiuer's mouth twitched, and she simply walked out openly.
Butler Lu was standing behind her, looking at her with a smile.
Jiuer went out from the side door of the general's mansion. It took her half an hour to shake off those "tails" in the dark.
When Jiuer came out again, her appearance had completely changed. She had become a poor old woman who was almost unrecognizable.
She found a place and was about to try to see if she could use the blood she had taken from Prime Minister Wang today to have the Holy Bee find Wang Xiaojin the same way it did last time to find Ms. Zhuang, but she hadn't taken it out yet.
Suddenly, a passionate and charming voice sounded from the dark courtyard wall nearby, "Mother-in-law... are you lost in this dark alley in the middle of the night?"
