She was talking about a middle-aged woman who worked as a cleaner and whom she met in the interrogation room.
Huo Yushen nodded: "It's one of ours. Ms. Xia is frightened."
Xia Yuanfang smiled and said, "It's okay, I know you will come to help me, I'm not afraid."
Then, she asked curiously, "Excuse me, your subordinates just said that His Majesty was assassinated... Is this true?"
Huo Yushen did not hide anything from Xia Yuanfang.
He said, "Yes, His Majesty was assassinated and has died."
"The empire is in a very sensitive transition period."
"You'd better... stay out of the spotlight for a while."
Xia Yuanfang's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Who is the assassin?"
Huo Yushen shook his head without hesitation and said, "I don't know, we are currently investigating."
Xia Yuanfang was obviously relieved and said, "So he hasn't been caught yet?"
Huo Yushen: "..."
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Not yet, but we are hunting down all suspects throughout the empire."
Xia Yuanfang sighed and said, "Logically, I shouldn't be gloating at this time."
"But it was thanks to this assassin that I was able to escape."
"I'm still very grateful to him."
Huo Yushen: "..."
He lowered his eyes and said, "Ms. Xia, it's okay for you to talk to me about this."
"But don't say it in front of others."
After a pause, he reminded: "Don't say it even in front of Chief Quan or Master Su."
"They are not from the same class as us, and may not be able to empathize with your ideas."
Xia Yuanfang heard his words and said with a smile: "They can't, but Chief Inspector Huo can, right?"
Huo Yushen neither admitted nor denied it, saying, "Your family is worried right now, you should go home first."
Xia Yuanfang said hurriedly: "Okay, I'll buy the ticket now."
Xia Chujian revealed her figure at this time and said, "Aunt, I have a flying machine. Let's go back together."
Xia Yuanfang turned around in surprise and saw Xia Chujian standing in the corner. His heart suddenly tightened and he asked, "Why are you here? Did you come directly from the army? Have you returned to Yuanxing?"
When Xia Yuanfang got into trouble, he didn't send a message to Xia Chujian, but to Quan Yuxun.
Xia Chujian said calmly, "Xia Xiong sent me a message. I was not there at the time. I was out on a mission."
"It's been a while since I saw the news, so I came back to check."
"In the end, I met Huo Shuai and his men, and they came here to pick you up."
She deliberately kept the time vague to fool Xia Yuanfang.
