The Gu sisters and Cheng Huaijin left around midnight. Bai Yi had been keeping an eye on Shi Mu every day and had figured out his routine of leaving around midnight.
They had to wait until Shi Mu left before they could go in.
When they arrived next to the embassy, Lu Zheng was already waiting there.
"Sisi is here too?" Lu Zheng was a little surprised to see Gu Si.
"My third sister said she wanted to broaden my horizons!" Gu Si said with a grin.
She hadn't been out and about like this in a long time, and she was very excited.
"Has the person left?" Gu Xin asked.
“Let’s go, Baiyi has already caught up. This guy really does go out every day without fail, I wonder what he’s up to. Anyway, I’ve already told Baiyi that we’ll go to Boss Du’s place later to wait for him and see what he’s been up to today,” Lu Zheng said.
“Okay, let’s go then!” Gu Xin nodded.
Then the four of them headed towards the embassy.
At the embassy, in addition to guards from the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were also guards from other countries.
There are both overt and covert methods, but Gu Si was also involved in the design of the embassy. Not only does Gu Si know everything about it, but Gu Xin and Lu Zheng also know it very well. As long as they know the courtyard where Jia Cangguo lives, they can completely avoid the guards and successfully enter Shi Mu's room.
Fifteen minutes later, the four of them successfully entered Shi Mu's room.
Perhaps because Shi Mu usually doesn't allow anyone to guard outside his room, there was no one in the small courtyard where he lived at this moment, which made it even more convenient for the four of them.
Lu Zheng was very familiar with this matter. After telling Gu Xin and the other two a few things to pay attention to, he told them to follow along, not to touch anything randomly, and to pay attention to the arrangement of things inside, as well as the various small details around them.
Since Shi Mu dared not let anyone guard him, it means he has his own methods.
For example, after entering the room, they noticed a small detail: the door seemed to be closed, but the latch was actually crooked, and in a rather peculiar way. If someone sneaked in without noticing, Shi Mu would definitely find out when he returned.
The four of them entered through the window.
There's a little trick to the windows too. If you don't look carefully before coming in and accidentally bump into one and don't put it back in place, Shi Mu will notice.
Gu Xin noticed this. After the group went inside, she pulled the window back to its original position and even measured it with an oil lamp.
Next is the furnishings in Shi Mu's room. They look quite orderly and tidy, but if you rummage through things and don't remember how they looked before you did, and then put them back in their original places according to what you assume most people do, you'll definitely be caught.
Lu Zheng investigated several cases in his past life, Gu Xin is interested in investigating cases in this life, and Gu Si is proficient in financial auditing. For the three of them, all they really need to do is be careful.
Cheng Huaijin wasn't exactly careless, but he still chose to follow the three of them.
On the desk, they found Shi Mu's handwriting. Judging from the characters, he had not only recently learned them after arriving in Da Zhou, but had been practicing for at least several years. Moreover, the writing format was the same as that of Da Zhou, rather than the habits of their Jia Cang side.
Most importantly, they found a piece of paper with the idiom "Da Zhou" written on it, which was related to Gu Yingxue.
Studying by the light of snow and fireflies.
Now all four of them understood that Shi Muzhen had taken a liking to Gu Yingxue.
