But Mrs. Zhu and her family still live with Su Luo because little Zhuzi's injury has not yet fully healed.
Zi Yan and Bei Chen pulled Su Luo straight to a place where there was no one around.
Zi Yan lowered her voice and asked nervously, "Luoluo...you...I want to know...is it you?"
Su Luo looked at her with a smile: "Ask whatever you want to ask. It's up to you whether to ask or not, and it's up to me whether to answer or not. If I can answer, I will definitely not hide it from you."
Zi Yan's expression was somewhat solemn. She leaned close to Su Luo's ear and asked in a voice that only the three of them could hear.
"Luoluo, is Hu Xu's death... related to the Fall of Little Red Lotus?"
Su Luo looked at Zi Yan.
As expected of Zi Yan, who is as meticulous as a hair, others may not be able to see it, but Zi Yan almost guessed the truth.
"Why do you ask that?" Su Luo didn't know where she had revealed her flaw.
Zi Yan looked speechlessly at the sunflower swaying in the wind, transformed from the fallen red lotus above Su Luo's head, and said unhappily, "The fallen red lotus is very happy and excited, and even a little proud, so—"
Su Luo smiled bitterly. It turned out that it was not her problem, but the problem of the Fallen Little Red Lotus. As she said, one thing led to another, and she cleared herself of all charges. Even Shopkeeper Lu had never doubted her.
Su Luo had nothing to hide from Zi Yan and Bei Chen, so she nodded.
"Ah, really..." Zi Yan subconsciously covered her lips: "This... What should I do? He's the city lord's son, will the city lord find out?"
Su Luo tilted her head and thought for a moment: "The City Lord doesn't know about the Fallen Little Red Lotus, so he probably won't be able to tell."
Zi Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
"But..." Su Luo frowned and paused.
"But what?" Zi Yan's heart was in her throat again!
You have to know that he's the Lord Mayor of Yiyang City! He commands a large army! And his own strength is comparable to that of a flaming tiger! And he's also seeking revenge for the murder of his son!
Having an enemy like this would keep you awake at night!
Su Luo tilted her head and thought for a moment: "But if we follow the theory that the person who benefits the most is the suspect, then I will definitely be suspected."
"Huh?" Zi Yan exclaimed, "But there's no evidence! And you behaved so well at the time, and you even promised to save Hu Xu!"
"Well, that's what he said. However, if City Lord Tiger had a narrow mind, he wouldn't blame himself and would need to find someone to blame." Su Luo looked at Zi Yan and Bei Chen and said in a very serious tone, "Then, that person is most likely me."
"How could he do this!" Zi Yan was the first to disagree. She clenched her fists, furious. "How could Lord Tiger do this?! Is he even reasonable anymore?!"
Su Luo smiled bitterly: "For these superiors, reason? What is that? They only use fists."
Zi Yan bit the corner of her lip, but had to admit that Su Luo was absolutely right.
Especially at the top of the gods, strength is the standard for measuring everything! Fists are the ultimate truth!
"Then what should we do..." Zi Yan said with a sad face: "Lord Tiger..."
"All of this is just my speculation. If City Lord Tiger is very broad-minded, then he is just blaming himself?" Su Luo comforted with a smile.
"Besides, you cured Xiao Zhuzi!" Zi Yan said to Su Luo, "No matter what the City Lord said, he should thank you!"
