Huo Yushen said: "Given his status as the high priest, I think he must have investigated it."
"And because they investigated and found that they couldn't connect the queen to the murder, their investigation hit a dead end."
"After twenty years of no progress, we finally had to hire a bounty hunter to investigate the case."
Xia Chujian said regretfully: "They didn't mention this matter directly to us."
"It's just a metaphor using a hairpin."
Huo Yushen said: "When it comes to the Queen, they will never bring it up."
"Just give us clues and let us draw our own conclusions."
"If they can't find out, they'll only lose a little money. To them, it's not even a drop in the bucket, more like a drop in the ocean."
Xia Chujian continued, "What if they find out? Don't forget the last condition of that mission, which is to kill the real culprit."
"So, their ultimate goal is actually to find a bounty hunter and kill the queen."
Then, Xia Chujian said regretfully: "But that conclusion must be wrong."
"I don't think the murderer is the Queen."
"The high priest and his wife have already tried it."
"I don't know why they still do this."
"That's a bit boring."
Although Xia Chujian coveted the 10 billion Beichen coins prize, he felt bored when he thought of the risks involved and the concealment of the person who issued the task.
Huo Yushen noticed her low mood and said calmly, "Actually, you don't have to care about the thoughts of the person who issued the task."
"If they could really solve the case, they wouldn't issue the mission."
"The less they interfere with our investigation, the better."
"This is a business deal. When the time comes, we'll settle the payment and there's nothing owed to either party."
Xia Chujian cheered up after hearing this. He nodded and said, "You have a point. I was obsessed with it."
Huo Yushen smiled slightly, changed the subject, and continued to analyze the case: "Your biggest advantage now is that you have a real hairpin."
“There’s a trace of everything.”
Xia Chujian felt that his thoughts suddenly became clear.
She said, "Well, I thought I should first look up the origins of this hairpin."
Huo Yushen said: "Yes, where did Ying Chenyu get the real hairpin? Also, she suddenly returned to Shaofu Star from Beichen Star, which is quite interesting."
"I tend to think that Ying Chenyu learned on Beichen Star that someone was planning to kill the Ying family, so she rushed back immediately."
Xia Chujian said, "...Then why didn't she notify her brother and sister-in-law through the Star Network in advance?"
Huo Yushen said: "I think they should have been notified, but think about the surveillance at Ying's Villa..."
"If even the surveillance is controlled, then controlling the network should be easy."
"So I think the Ying's Villa's network should have been controlled in advance."
“It’s unclear to what extent it’s under control.”
"But it is still possible to filter some early warning and alarm information."
Xia Chujian touched his chin, thoughtfully: "This is a deliberate plan... Who did the Ying family offend?"
Huo Yushen said: "If we knew, we would have solved the case."
Xia Chujian: “…”
She said bitterly, "If you don't know what to say, you don't have to say anything."
Huo Yushen: "..."
Xia Chujian's lips curled slightly, and she said in a good mood: "My idea is to start with this hairpin and see if we can find some different clues."
Huo Yushen thought that Ying Chenyu was no longer with us, and for the time being he had no way of knowing where she had gotten this antique hairpin.
But Xia Chujian was standing in front of her...
Huo Yushen asked, "Where on earth did you get this hairpin?"
Xia Chujian then told the story of Bai Cuiwei and Li Fu.
Huo Yushen knew some of the situation before, but he was not aware of details like the hairpin.
Now after listening to it, I suddenly realized that there were so many details in that incident.
Of course, to them, it's just a trivial matter.
But for some people, it is fatal.
Xia Chujian said, "At that time, I was just filled with rage, and I wanted Bai Cuiwei to be buried with Li Fu."
"But Bai Cuiwei didn't do anything evil on her own initiative. It was the fake Princess Tan Taijing who did it under her guise."
"I can kill Tan Tai Jing, but I can't kill Bai Cui Wei."
"It's just a pity that Bai Cuiwei was eventually killed by Tan Tai Jing."
Huo Yushen ignored her subsequent words and went straight to the point: "So, this hairpin was bought by Li Fu on the black market on Shaofu Star?"
Xia Chujian nodded: "It should be eight years ago. I don't know which black market it was in."
"Oh, by the way, Li Fu said this was the hairpin he bought on the black market after he earned his first million Beichen coins by taking on a mission to kill a wealthy businessman."
"I wonder if we can go to the Night Hunter Association and check the mission that Li Fu accepted."
"We can basically determine the time when this hairpin was traded on the black market."
Huo Yushen immediately said, "That's easy. I'll check it out right away."
Xia Chujian: “…”
What's easy?
He made it sound as if the Night Hunter Association was run by his family...
Xia Chujian curled her lips and disapproved.
…
Half an hour later, Huo Yushen returned to Xia Chujian's house and said to her, "I found out the time of Li Fu's mission."
"We've basically determined the location of the black market. It's an underground black market north of Chaoruo City, the capital of Shaofu Star."
Xia Chujian blinked and wanted to ask Huo Yushen whose connections he had in the Dark Night Hunter Association.
