Chapter 95 (2/2)
After that, he slowly walked out, his footsteps were somewhat slow-moving, as if he didn’t have a care at all.
However, no one realized that within the darkness, that pair of eyes narrowed little by little. Within eyes so deep one couldn’t see the extent of their depth was a chill that could make a person’s heart seize up.
After that, he laughed.
His thin lips seemed as if it was both curved and not curved, carrying a demonic chill that made a person s.h.i.+ver from the heart.
Eunuch Sun’s eyes slightly looked up, when he faced those ice-cold eyes belonging to Third Prince, he became petrified. He originally wanted to step foot into the room, but he immediately stiffly retrieved his leg.
“Where is she?” Baili Jia Jue only asked a question, yet his ice-cold voice made the people in the shadows s.h.i.+vered for no reason.
Among them, one shadow responded. “Reporting to His Highness, Miss Helian should be going to the outhouse. It was inconvenient for us to follow her, therefore…”
“Outhouse?” The chill in Baili Jia Jue’s eyes reduced a little and he walked back again. This was but a little room, yet everything was arranged very neatly and tidily all around. That bundle was the only anomaly.
His long and slender fingers pushed it apart. There wasn’t any clothes inside, and was actually a pile of black metals, but those black metals also wasn’t very uncommon, and could be purchased at any armament shop.
In the middle of the night, she used the privy, as for those packed things? Within Baili Jia Jue’s narrowed eyes, something quickly flashed which slowly raised a penetrating chilliness.
Ah, he still underestimated her.
While training an unfamiliar fox, it would always first take an opportunity to come excessively close and obediently allow you to pet it a little, after which it would ferociously bare its claw.
Everything was normal?
From the beginning, she clearly already planned to leave.
Good. Very good. If she wanted to play, he will play with her!
Baili Jia Jue curved his lips and smiled. There seemed to be a black fog issuing from his pupils which generally made people cold to the bones.
He threw aside the bundle in his hand. The pieces of metal producing ‘clunk clunk clang clang’ noises.
Not a single person dared to speak.
The air seemed to have been frozen. Everyone didn’t dare to look at him.
The people in the shadows hung their heads even closer to the ground. The responsibility of guarding Miss Helian was something His Highness had a.s.signed to them, but they actually didn’t know when Miss Helian disappeared…
That Miss Helian truly also had quite the nerve. Master already asked her to wait, and she just went and disappeared whenever she wanted to.
If she was caught by His Highness at this moment, very likely…
Baili Jia Jue’s eyes submerged slightly deeper, his voice was also cold to the extreme, pausing after each word as he issued an order. “Go and find her for me.”
She still hadn’t left the academy.
That tea was hot.
It’s possible that she really went to the outhouse. Only, after coming back from there, she saw the guards outside, and then took the opportunity to run away.
Still, truly such a clever little fox that it made a person what to take her claw and cut it off!
At this moment, Wei Wei indeed hadn’t left the academy. She still needed to find her comrade. It’s just that, from the distance, she already saw a large number of guards rapidly moving, as if they wanted to block the various doorways to every single courtyard.
Wei Wei’s thin lips turned down. He deserved to be Third Prince. She even thought that he would be mislead by those shadow’s words for a few minutes. She didn’t expect that he would react so quickly to immediately realize that she wasn’t at the outhouse at all and had already escaped instead.
He’s indeed not easy to handle.
However, want to catch her by only relying on these imperial guards?
She reckoned they were all busy with going to block all the doors and gates, and simply hadn’t considered that she’d never planned to leave at the moment.
Without bringing along her ‘front’, it’d be useless for her to go to that armament conference.
She needed to first meet with fellow student, Hei Ze, for her to succeed.
The person relaying the news should’ve brought her message to Hei Ze by now. It always took some effort for these young lords to get dressed…
However, shouldn’t she have Little White make use of his magic to summon a spirit beast in advance? Otherwise, to go to such distant a place as the summit by the sea in a regular horse carriage would require a minimum of ten days. By that time, the armament conference would’ve ended already…
Right when Wei Wei closed her eyes to think of this matter, a person suddenly caught and pulled her from behind, a faint scent of sandalwood penetrated the tip of her nose…
