Chatper 2496 (1/2)
When the smoke dissipated, the two men in black had disappeared, leaving only the burnt marks of the thick smoke on the ground.
Ke Jia stared at the trace, a thoughtful light flashed in his eyes.
Ping Shun on the eaves looked down quietly, secretly guessing in his heart, it seemed that Ke Jia had already guessed the origin of those men in black.
"Squeak!"
The tightly closed door was pushed open at this moment. Aunt Lan walked out quickly and asked Ke Jia worriedly, "Are you alright? Did they hurt you?"
Ke Jia turned his head and stared at Lan Xin, smiling confidently, "How could they hurt me with their clowns?"
Lan Xin let out a long sigh of relief, "As long as you're fine, I don't know if they have anything to do with the man in black last time."
Ke Jia's eyes flickered, as if hesitating for something.
Lan Xin knew Ke Jia best, and immediately asked, "Did you find anything?"
Ke Jia nodded slightly, "Yes, I saw them fleeing just now, I am very familiar with it, I seem to have seen it many years ago."
Lan Xin frowned slightly, "Have you seen it?"
She was hiding in the room just now, and she was very surprised to see two men in black throwing smoke bombs and fleeing through the window.
It was the first time she had seen such a sneaky escape method, and she didn't know how Ke Jia had seen it.
"That's right, I did see it many years ago." Ke Jia nodded slightly, his eyes dazed, as if he had fallen into the memories of many years ago. The storm, drifting to a small island called Yingzhou, has seen this method before."
"I really haven't heard you mention it before." Lan Xin became interested in that small island, "It must have been a thrilling adventure, which is why you remember it until now."
"Well, back then we were young and impulsive, and had conflicts with the people on the island..."
When Ke Jia said this, he seemed unwilling to go on, and changed the subject with a wry smile, "But that island is far away from here, and those people would not have tracked it down back then, probably because of similar physical skills."
Lan Xin knew that Ke Jia didn't want to say any more, so she didn't ask further, and said with a faint smile, "As long as you're fine, it's been so long since what happened to you back then, I think it should be just similar."
"Well," Ke Jia nodded slightly, "I'm afraid they won't succeed this time, and they will come again next time. If you tie up one at that time, you can force them to find out their origins. But you, you must take care of yourself. Now everywhere They are all pasted with your portrait, and the one in the palace is obviously determined to catch you back."
"I'm not afraid that she will catch me, but I'm afraid that it will hurt you." When Lan Xin mentioned this, her face was filled with worry, "Especially since we haven't found Lingxi's whereabouts yet, I really don't know what's going on with her now. "
When Ping Shun, who had been hiding on the eaves, heard this, she wanted to stick her head out to say hello, so that Aunt Lan would not worry about them any more.
But before he had time to move, Ke Jia hugged Lan Xin with one hand, "Don't worry, that kid named Ping Shun is very skilled, and should be enough to protect her. But I have the emperor's life, and I will meet you next time." , will still catch him.”
Ping Shun had no choice but to retract his outstretched hand, silently slandering Ke Jia in his heart, thinking that he was really stupid.
And Lan Xin obviously had the same thoughts as him, and said dissatisfiedly, "You know she is a fake, why do you still listen to her orders?"
"There is no substantive evidence right now. I still have to obey the emperor's order." Ke Jia sighed, his tone full of resignation.
"I know," Lan Xin pursed her lips to hide the disappointment in her eyes, and sighed quietly, "I'm fine here now, as long as Lingxi can take care of herself, it's best not to come to me recklessly."
Ke Jia knew that Lan Xin was unhappy, and looked at her apologetically, "I'm sorry Lan Xin, I know I'm too pedantic, so don't be angry."
"No, the stand is different, I can't force you to do something for me," Lan Xin smiled reluctantly, "It's late, I should go back to rest, and you too."
After finishing speaking, Lan Xin turned around and walked back to her room with a somewhat lonely back.
