The night was extremely quiet. The full moon, like a jade plate, passed through the clouds. The moonlight was like water, lightly shining on the earth. The entire bamboo forest seemed to be covered with a thin silver gauze.
One or two stars can be vaguely seen in the distant sky, shining faintly and slowly fading away.
Wen Xining's room was dark, and a figure stood at the door for a long time, then turned and left toward the forest, his steps light and silent.
Suddenly, there was a flash of golden light in the quiet forest. If I looked carefully, I could see no figure anywhere.
After a while, Wen Xining, who was lying on the bed, slowly stood up, put on his cloak, and opened the door.
Outside, the moon and stars were sparse, and the cold wind blew.
Tightening her cloak, Wen Xining stepped out, squinting her eyes closely at the place where the light and shadow disappeared before, and walked over step by step.
In front of you is a small lake.
After standing quietly for a moment, Wen Xining suddenly sat down. Under him were the fallen bamboo leaves that exuded a faint fragrance, soft and gentle.
A full moon is reflected on the lake. When the evening wind blows, the waves sparkle like a water mirror.
Throwing a stone towards the center of the lake, the moon became shattered in an instant, and returned to perfection a moment later.
Wen Xining smiled softly: The moon in the water and the flowers in the mirror are beautiful but unreal.
That smile disappeared in a flash.
Chu Yan went out again tonight, as he did for ten consecutive nights.
She didn't know what he was doing, because at the fixed time every morning, Chu Yan still came to wake her up for breakfast as usual, and he looked the same as usual.
Naturally, Wen Xining would not ask him, but as time went by, the doubts in her heart became more and more serious.
She began to doubt what Chu Yan said and whether Beitang Shuo and the others were really dead.
Such suspicion made her both happy and heartbroken.
I am happy that Beitang Shuo may not be dead yet, but I am heartbroken because of Chu Yan's deception.
Chu Yan, the little boy she treated sincerely, she really didn't want him to lie to her.
Because she has long regarded him as a relative, if he wanted to use this reason to confine her to him.
Then, she will never forgive him.
Standing up, Wen Xining breathed out gently towards the lake, turned around and walked towards the bamboo house.
But the direction she walked was towards Chu Yan's room.
With a gentle push, the door was opened by her. It seemed that Chu Yan was completely unprepared for her.
Under the faint moonlight, the simple furnishings in the house appeared before Wen Xining's eyes.
She has been here for almost two months, and she has never entered Chu Yan's room.
Although she didn't want to do such a thing, she had to do it in order to prove some of her guesses.
Taking a deep breath, Wen Xining suppressed the guilt in her heart and began to take action.
try to find!
She didn't know what she was looking for, but her intuition told her that there might be some clues here.
There weren't many places to hide things inside, but Wen Xining searched for a long time, but still couldn't find anything.
Is it possible that I worry too much?
Standing in the middle of the room, Wen Xining touched his chin and thought carefully. A beam of moonlight fell on the bed. Wen Xining's eyes lit up and he walked over.
When I took the pillow away, there was nothing underneath, but there was a protrusion under the blanket.
Lifting the blanket, a familiar package appeared in front of Wen Xining.
With a look on his face, Wen Xining picked it up.
This...this is actually her package!
When she opened it, Wen Xining was extremely excited.
Sure enough, there were her things, a modern police uniform, handcuffs, police ID, her mobile phone and Nighthawk.
Didn't these things fall into the Hades Sea in that shipwreck?
Why is it in Chu Yan’s hands now?
And he actually got it, why didn't he give it to himself, but hid it instead?
Wen Xining's eyebrows furrowed more and more tightly, and she lowered her head slightly, only to find that there was something else under the blanket.
It's a piece of paper.
Full of doubts, Wen Xining picked up the piece of paper, unfolded it, and saw a long list of names densely written on it.
Qiyuan Escort Bureau, Mulin Villa, Wan Du Sect, Thousand Hands Gang...
Moreover, the first few names have a red cross on them. If you count carefully, there are exactly ten, and there are 8 names at the end that have not been crossed out.
What do these mean?
Ten days, ten names...
Wen Xining's expression became condensed, and she immediately thought of Chu Yan's strange behavior for ten consecutive nights.
She is here, so she doesn't know what's going on outside, but that doesn't mean she can't guess it.
Could it be said that Chu Yan has eliminated these names in these ten days?
His heart twitched violently, and Wen Xining felt that the hand holding the paper was shaking.
His face looked very pale under the moonlight.
I don't know how long it took, but Wen Xining suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at the deviation of the direction of the moonlight and realized that she had stayed here for too long.
The Calming Emperor Paper was folded according to its original shape, and then placed in its original place. After thinking about it, he rewrapped the package and put it back in its original place.
But before that, she took out the three remaining bullets in Nighthawk.
Everything returned to its original state, she quietly exited Chu Yan's room, and then returned to her own house.
The moment she closed the door, she realized that her palms were full of sweat.
Yes, she was nervous just now, she was actually scared.
If it was really as she thought, and Chu Yan killed all the ten cross-marked escort agencies, villas and the like, how terrifying would that be?
Could this kind of thing be done by the Chu Yan she knew?
No, it's impossible, she must have thought wrong.
Wen Xining became more and more confused and frightened as she thought about it. She walked towards the bed in a daze. In the darkness, she didn't even notice what was in front of her. She tripped over a stool and fell to the ground.
"ah!!!"
Wen Xining screamed when her stomach hurt.
At this moment, far away in Linchuan Country, Chu Yan, who had transformed into a sword, had just killed a person and was about to fly towards the last person when he suddenly sensed Wen Xining's scream.
Without a moment's hesitation, with a flash of golden light, Chu Yan disappeared in front of the stunned man with blood on his face.
With a "pop" sound, the man knelt down and looked at the corpses on the ground, without reacting for a long time.
The only survivor of the Lufeng family in Linchuan country.
