Chapter 086 Problem

Gu Shenwei pondered what the prostitute Shen Yanshi+ had said and didn’t quite understand why she had wanted to rown-ups He suddenlywas both the means and purpose of life there; it was simple and direct

While Zhong Heng went back to the ya shu at the northern Jade City, Tie Hanfeng led his disciple to the southwall tavern to take a rest 1 He drank more wine than usual and met with some more people as Gu Shenwei sat side and listened to the news that people were talking about

Xu Xiaoyi claimed that everyone knew him in southern Jade City and it seemed to be true People called him by various names such as 'little devil', 'little kid', or 'little bean', but no one knew the whereabouts of him and his sister, Xu Yanwei The sister and brother duo seemed to have disappeared fro their descriptions were found in the wilderness within ten miles

”It's really weird In southern Jade City, even two ants wouldn't be able to hide from these people's eyes”

At radually decrease Tie Hanfeng tightly gripped his wine cup as he fell more and more confused

”Perhaps they hid in the northern Jade City” Gu Shenwei thought To him, that was the only possible explanation

”That thought had long ago crossed my mind, but those two, a thief and a prostitute, weren't even qualified to enter the northern Jade city Also we checked the records at all of the city gates, and there were no records of people with unknown origins entering the northern Jade City”

Gu Shenwei had personally seen the guards of the northern Jade City in action, as they constantly recorded the names of those who entered and left and took custody of their weapons Even when faced with the professional killers of Golden Roc Castle, there were no exceptions It would indeed be difficult for a pair of siblings to sneak in

”Unless they were burnt to ashes, they will be found”

Tie Hanfeng gulped down a mouthful of wine as he finished those last words and fell asleep with his head leaning against the seat He never slept in bed, at least Gu Shenwei had never seen him to do so

Gu Shenwei sat quietly, looking at the drinkers drunkenly staggering around, leaving or falling drowsily as he counted the tiht watchmen inside southern Jade City He felt that it was around the fourth night period as he stood up

”What's up?” Tie Hanfeng's snoring sound ceased and he asked a question with his eyes closed

”I a out for some air”

Gu Shenalked out of the tavern, ap in the wall He randomly walked across several streets and rushed towards the retention alley afterhim

The guests that had cauests that came for sex had fulfilled their lust They all walked out of the boundless gentle towns Some of them left proud and satisfied, others slipped away mysteriously All of them wanted to reach home before dawn so that, maybe they could find an excuse to deal with the blame at home

Gu Shenwei tried to touch the hilt of the sabre, but his hand reer existed by his waist, leaving hi of restlessness

After another wave of guests had left, the retention alley finally becahts in the small houses were turned off one by one until eventually there were only a few guests that were 'kept' behind

Gu Shenwei stood away froainst the wall of a corner, observing both Xu Yanwei and Shen Yanshi+'s shts in either the inside and outside The latter had a lantern lighting the front door but the inside was dark as well

About a quarter of an hour later, Gu Shenwei crouched and quickly ran to the door of Shen Yanshi+'s house The door was unlatched, as if it aiting for his arrival

He quietly pushed the door open and went inside The layout of the house was almost the same as the house on the opposite side He directly went to the back-door, pushed it to be unlatched and then went softly upstairs

There were no servants around because they were probably already sent away

The door of the bedroom was also unlatched Gu Shenwei listened for a while and heard that there were no sounds of breathing inside

Gu Shenwei pushed the door open just a crack He slipped inside and immediately sao corpses He walked over quietly and bent to check They were Shen Yanshi+ and an old server One of them was cut in the abdomen, the other in the neck

The eyes of the dead people ide open, bigger than when they were alive The corpses' eyes shi+, but it onlythrough the spine from his neck

He turned around and saw ain the corner Like a dead man, he didn’t have any breath, but he was certainly alive

”I ondering if thein the corner said

”Perhaps the oat”

Gu Shenwei abandoned the intention to run away because the two knew each other He just didn't expect the other side to be an expert

”Maybe the ood show”

Zhong Heng stood up and walked to the corpses, ”Another masterpiece of the Golden Roc Castle's narrow sabre Even the sabresmanshi+p is alike”

”It's not alike”

”Oh?”

”The Golden Roc Sabresmanshi+p is quicker Sabre in and sabre out The attack happens in just a moment, so the cut will be very small It is even smaller than the width of the narrow sabre Shen Yanshi+'s cut was caused by the narrow sabre, but theslowly and waited for awhile before pulling the sabre out Thus the cut was a bit bigger That old wo toowith one cut in which the Golden Roc Sabresmanshi+p is renowned for”

Gu Shenwei hi He had seen countless corpses at east castle and never paid special attention to the wound, but to him the difference was so obvious

”You're right”

Zhong Heng squatted, and he even touched the wounds on the two corpses for a while, ”The murderer was closer to her when he killed her He probably held her with one hand and gripped a sabre to stab with another hand When he killed that old woman, the ood at”

”You believe me?”

This was the second time Gu Shenwei asked the same question from a different person
