”Does Prince's Wife know anything?” Mo Jiu wanted to catch the culprit, someone who dared to behave atrociously in the army camp. He must let that person know how to write the word 'regret'.
”Where did Shi Cheng die?” Su Li did not answer, but asked him a question instead.
”It's in the Hero Tomb outside the barracks.”
Su Li was silent. She knew that the Hero Tomb was a burial ground for the Vanguard Army. As long as someone died, they would become a pile of dirt there.
”Go ahead and busy yourself, I'll take Stars Pet Chain Supermarket.”
Mo Jiu nodded his head, ”Alright, if Prince's Wife needs me, feel free to ask.”
”Alright.”
The three of them walked out of the camp, and Mo Jiu left first.
Su Li stood in place for a while.
Stars Pet Chain Supermarket could not hold it in anymore and asked, ”Fourth Miss, where are we going next?”
”To the left second battalion.” They knew that Jin Zishan.
Fatty Luo's fingers did not match the thumb ring, they could eliminate him first, since Mo Lianyun was from the Third Prince, he had nothing to do with this case, so he had to eliminate him first.
At that moment, only Jin Zishan and the Military Doctor were left.
The two of them went to the Second Left Battalion, but Jin Zishan was not in his tent. He asked around and found out that he went to the Hero Tomb with a few soldiers.
The two of them then headed towards the Hero Tomb without stopping. Halfway there, they coincidentally met the few soldiers that were walking back, among them, there was no sign of Jin Zishan.
”Prince's Wife.” A few of them wanted to salute Su Li.
Su Li raised his hand towards them, indicating that there was no need to stand on ceremony, ”Where's Jin Zishan?”
”To return to the Prince's Wife, Brother Jin and Brother Shi are brothers and sisters. Brother Shi died miserably, Brother Jin would like to stay and accompany him.”
”Then you guys can go back first.”
”Yes.”
After bidding farewell to the few of them, Su Li led Stars Pet Chain Supermarket and continued forward. In the desolate Hero Tomb, he saw Jin Zishan sitting in front of a new grave.
He was very close to the tombstone, and with half his body leaning on it, he kept touching the tombstone with one hand. This kind of feeling was very strange, as though what Jin Zishan had lost was not a brother, but the person he loved the most …
Su Li did not rush over to disturb him. It was only when he stood up and walked back with a limp that she walked out of the darkness and met him head-on.
Jin Zishan's face was filled with pain, but he did not have the time to stop. He was caught off guard and quickly bowed his head.
When he raised his head again, his previous expression had already disappeared.
”Why is Prince's Wife here?”
Su Li looked at Jin Zishan's hand. Compared to Fatty Luo, his hand could be considered delicate.
With a bit of strength, the thumb ring could still be inserted.
”I want to talk to you.” Su Li smiled at him, trying his best to show his good will.
Jin Zishan hesitated for a moment, nodded, and then silently walked forward.
Su Li organized his thoughts and asked tentatively, ”On the day Shi Cheng was killed, did you want to head towards the small hill because you knew he went there?”
Jin Zishan paused in his steps, looked at Su Li, and continued walking.
”If you know anything, you have to tell me. That way, I can quickly find his killer and make him rest in peace.” Seeing that Jin Zishan was still not willing to say it, Su Li pursed his lips and said, ”Actually, I know of a place where there are a lot of people who love each other, and it's not of the opposite sex, but of the same sex.”
Jin Zishan lowered his head, and instantly raised it up, meeting Su Li's gaze, ”You...”
”Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else about this. Everyone has their own right to pursue love. As long as you don't interfere with the law and don't do any heinous things, you don't need to feel ashamed.”
Jin Zishan stopped, his mouth trembling for a while before he managed to squeeze out a sentence.
”The day before he died, he told me that he wanted Hugh to go to the city to buy a ring, give it to the Lin Sanniang, and ask for her hand in marriage.”
