Yan Xiluo breathed a sigh of relief and left the study.
The next room is Su Mengying's, and next to it is Su Ruien's. Neither of them are home, which makes it much easier for her to investigate.
Next, they went to Su Weihua and Xia Yun's room, and again, they lit incense before going in.
Nothing was found in their rooms either, but since quite some time had passed, she needed to hurry up and investigate.
Finally, she searched Su Li and Zhong Nian's rooms, as well as Su Li's study, but found no clues whatsoever.
This is strange, and it doesn't make sense.
Last time it was identified as Su Yi, but this time, the entire second floor was searched and no useful clues were found.
Only the third and first floors remain. With three hours until dawn, she needs to speed things up, otherwise, given the current situation, it will be difficult to find anything today.
She suddenly remembered something and, before the incense's effects wore off, quickly returned to their room.
After finishing her tasks, she went to the third floor to conduct a preliminary investigation.
Finally, go to the first floor.
In the end, all the medicines were found on the first floor, and they were scattered quite a bit.
To avoid being noticed, she found others and replaced the medicine and the bottle.
She had to take all these medicines away and not let Zhong Nian take them anymore, otherwise the antidote would be wasted.
After doing everything she needed to do, Yan Xiluo quickly retreated. Fortunately, she was quick enough to thoroughly investigate the Su family in one day.
She packed all the medicine into a transparent bag and took it with her.
Lan Jingyan stared at Yan Xiluo all night.
This little liar said he needed my help, but he never actually contacted me.
He knew this would happen. Luckily, he came with her. It seems Yan Xiluo will probably find a hotel to stay in and leave F City after she has rested.
Sure enough, he quickly found the flight information that Yan Xiluo had just booked that afternoon.
He had to book an earlier flight than her to rush back and pick her up from the airport.
Yan Xiluo originally wanted to go straight back to City A, but the nearest flight would take several hours, so she decided to get some rest first.

City A
Lan Jingyan waited for Yan Xiluo at the airport until she landed and successfully picked her up.
"Take me to the base."
Yan Xiluo seemed to have not slept enough, and she couldn't get excited when she saw Lan Jingyan, lacking her usual enthusiasm.
She obtained information about the base of influence in City A to investigate some matters.
She found nothing unusual in their room last night, so she collected everyone's fingerprints to see if she could extract matching fingerprints from the medicine bottle.
While we're at it, we can find out where these medicines came from, and by following the trail, we can find the exact buyer.
She wasn't skilled in fingerprint comparison technology, so she had to ask another subordinate at the base to do the fingerprint comparison.
However, since their fingerprints had not been collected before, the comparison process would take a considerable amount of time.
The Su family has six members plus more than a dozen servants, so things aren't easy for them.
She also needed to find a way to get Su Ruien and Su Mengying's fingerprints. She trusted them a lot, but she still had to do what needed to be done.
"Little liar."
Lan Jingyan spoke with a hint of displeasure, yet also with a playful tone.
"Um?"
"Are you calling me?"
Yan Xiluo was a little confused. When did she lie to him?
"Otherwise what?"
"Is anyone else in my car? Pretty, toxic little liar."
Lan Jingyan started the car and, jokingly, drove towards her base.
What did I lie to you about?
Yan Xiluo was puzzled; she couldn't remember.
"Didn't I tell you I'd help you remotely?"
"They didn't say a word."
Lan Jingyan felt somewhat aggrieved, as if he were useless, and he was dissatisfied.
I haven't contacted him since I landed!
If it weren't for the GPS tracking, which keeps him within 100 meters of her at all times, he would be frantic with worry.
"Pfft~"
"You're already following me, do I still need to look for you?"
"Who's the real liar here? You're the biggest liar!"
Yan Xiluo had long anticipated that this man couldn't stay still, and she wanted to see how long he could hold back.
I didn't expect him to be so calm and collected, and he even flew back to pick her up from the airport.
Her location is two-way; don't think she doesn't know where Lan Jingyan is.
How did you know all this?
Lan Jingyan paused, feeling somewhat guilty.
He worked so hard, even fearing being discovered, only to find out they already knew.
What was he being so careful about? It turns out he was the clown.
"The two-way locator was specially prepared because I knew my Ayan was not well-behaved."
Yan Xiluo shook her phone with a sense of accomplishment, while Lan Jingyan felt like he was about to explode.
Who can be more entertaining than his baby?
"Ahem, even if I don't follow you, you won't look for me."
"I stayed up all night last night, but you didn't send me a single message."
Lan Jingyan tried to justify herself by saying that she felt wronged that Yan Xiluo hadn't contacted her.
"Mr. Lan has made another contribution to the real estate industry. He's amazing!"
Don't think that just because he turned off the lights and was wandering around the balcony with binoculars, she wouldn't see him.
She is a world-class assassin—Ghostly, a title far more impressive than that of the leader of the Xi Gang.
She couldn't possibly be unaware of such a small trick.
She remained very vigilant.
"You know that too!"
"Baby, investigate me!"
Lan Jingyan was a little agitated. His baby no longer trusted him and had started investigating him.
He was so touched that he cried, thinking how hard she had to take care of him despite being so busy.
"Use a telescope? You're just swinging it around on the balcony, the lenses are reflecting light off it, bro!"
Yan Xiluo was embarrassed and insisted that she say it herself.
"..."
"That doesn't prove I bought the villa next door. How can you be so sure it's me? How did you recognize me?"
Lan Jingyan persisted, genuinely curious.
In the pitch black, how could she possibly recognize him?
Hawkeye, right?
"I suddenly feel that the question you asked is really stupid, and I don't want to answer it."
Yan Xiluo was completely speechless.
His height and build are rare, and his aura is so imposing, like a thief still holding his head high...
Who else could it be but him?
"Baby, you seem to dislike me?"
Lan Jingyan felt even more aggrieved. What does it mean to be "lowered in intelligence"?
"Look at the kind of questions you're asking! The leader of the Yan Gang and the president of the Lan Group, asking such low-IQ questions."
How am I supposed to answer that?
Yan Xiluo thought to herself, this man must have gone crazy from staying up all night. How could she have disliked him? Did she even say it?
"..."
"That's because you're too smart; I can't fool you at all."
"No one else would have noticed!"
Lan Jingyan held Yan Xiluo in high esteem, as if the question he had asked was a bit silly.
Given his style of doing things, he would definitely buy the villa directly, rather than borrowing or renting it, which would be too unbecoming of his status.
He shouldn't have kept asking; now he's a complete idiot in his baby's eyes...
“But I am not just anyone, Mr. Lan.”
"Drive carefully, we'll talk about it when we get to the base."
At this speed, I don't know how long it will take to get to the base. Lan Jingyan just slowed down.
