The General Is Here [Rebirth]

Shi Heruo once again squatted next to the deep pit where Xu Da's body was found, speechless for a long time.

Zhao Tong on the side also slowly squatted down, patted Shi Hewei on the shoulder, and said after a while: "It's not hopeless, we still have three days, maybe within these three days we can find out again." What key evidence is unknown..."

Shi He Ruo buried his face in his hands for a long time before replying in a muffled voice: "I never thought that half a month would pass so quickly..."

For half a month, Shi Heruo and Zhao Tong traveled back and forth between the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Yushitai, Dali Temple, and Xujia Village in the capital every day.

However, although many suspicious points were discovered, these doubtful points were not enough to clear Liu Baikou of the crime.

Some forces in the court also began to move around. Shi Heruo learned from Zhao Tong that several ministers had gathered together to draft a memorial a few days ago, listing a series of unwarranted crimes and wanting to impeach Prime Minister Liu. .

Although the matter of Liu Baikou was temporarily suppressed, no one knew how long such a matter could be suppressed.Or, in fact, the news of Liu Baikou's detention had already been leaked, and the reason why those people didn't do anything was because they were waiting.

Wait for half a month.

Wait for these last three days.

Zhao Tong sighed, tugged Shi Heruo's sleeve, and then slowly stood up: "Let's go."

The candle was slowly burned out, Shi He Ruo stared at the fire in front of him until his eyes were sour.

Since Shi Heruo came back from Xujia Village with Zhao Tong at dusk, he has been shutting himself in the house.

I never ate half a mouthful of dinner.

Earlier, Yin Shuhuan personally brought the food to Shi Heruo.

Yin Shuhuan, who knocked on the door and entered the room, didn't say anything, just put down the food silently, walked slowly to Shi Heruo's side, stretched out his arms and hugged him tenderly: "The little tiger has done a good job."

Shi He Ruo buried his head in Yin Shuhuan's waist, trembling all over.

"Yin Fox, go out for a while. I want to be alone." After a while, Shi He Ruo let go of Yin Shuhuan's waist and turned his face away.

Yin Shuhuan bent down, pinched Shi Hewei's chin, slowly turned Shi Hewei's face around, looked at Shi Hewei for a while, leaned forward, and kissed Shi Hewei lightly. Red and hot eyes: "Okay."

As long as the sky is bright again, there are only two days left.

Shi He Ruo looked at the half-burned candle in front of him, and suddenly stood up.

Because of the token given by Zhao Tong, Shi Heruo was not hindered from leaving the city.

It's just that he doesn't know what's the point of coming to this place again at this time.

"Ah!" A sharp female voice pierced the dark silence.

Shi He Ruo was startled, turned around, only to see the lantern falling on the ground and the figure of a woman running away.

The withered and yellow grass was burned by the lights in the blink of an eye and began to spread.

The woman running wild seemed to feel the strangeness behind her, and when she turned around, she was frightened by the rising flames and her face turned pale, and she even screamed out after seeing the flames: "Master Bai!"

In order to facilitate the investigation of Shi Yushouzhi, Shi Heruo and Zhao Tong have been dressed in ordinary clothes for half a month, and they were respectively named Bai Cun, and Liu Tong came to deal with people in Xujia Village.

When Shi Heruo saw the woman's face clearly, he was similarly taken aback: "Miss Ye!"

The Ye Zisu in Shi Heruo's mouth is the granddaughter of Dr. Ye in Xujia Village. Ye Zisu is beautiful, kind-hearted, and has superb medical skills.The people in the village all praised her.

For half a month, Shi Heruo and Zhao Tong had spent a long time in Xujia Village in order to investigate the real cause of Xu Da's death, and the identities of most people in the village and their relationship with Xu Da were almost clear.

Seeing the flames grow higher and higher.

Ye Zisu turned back abruptly, rushed past the flames, ran to Shi Heruo's side, grabbed Shi Heruo's hand, and led him out.

"Master Bai...you" Ye Zisu bent down, panting.

"I'm fine, I'm fine." Shi Heruo hastily gave Ye Zisu a hand: "The fire is actually not that big, and I wasn't injured. But if there is no way to put out the fire..."

When He Ruo was speaking, a bright lightning tore through the dark sky, and the strong wind smashed down with heavy rain.

The flames that jumped up were extinguished all at once.

Shi Hewei was stunned.

"Master Bai... let's find a place to shelter from the rain first." Ye Zisu finally got her breath, straightened her waist, and said.

When He Ruo came to his senses, he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, let's find a place to shelter from the rain first."

This heavy rain came so suddenly, Shi Heruo thought it would pass quickly, but the rain became heavier and heavier, completely trapping him and Ye Zisu in the cave.

Shi Heruo had no choice but to smile wryly at Ye Zisu: "Miss Ye, I'm afraid it will rain until dawn."

Ye Zisu sat on the ground with her arms around her knees, trembling all over, and nodded slightly.

"Miss Ye, are you cold?" When Shi Heruo saw this, he immediately took out the fire pocket in his sleeve, searched all the things that could be burned in the cave, and set up a small fire. Beside the fire beckoned Ye Zisu to come over: "Miss Ye, I lit a fire, you might be warmer here."

Ye Zisu sat beside the fire in silence after hearing the words.

Shi Hewei was still concentrating on making the fire, and asked casually, "Miss Ye, what are you doing here at night?"

Ye Zisu's face turned pale for a moment, and her voice trembled visibly and violently: "I...I'm here...to gather herbs."

"Miss Ye...you..." Shi He Ruo was surprised, but before he could say anything, Ye Zisu suddenly fell to the ground and turned her back to him: "Master Bai, I'm very tired, I... I'll rest first gone."

Ye Zisu, who was in such a panic, suddenly realized that he and Zhao Tong had asked almost everyone in the village about Xu Da in the past half a month.

But they were the only ones who didn't ask Ye Zisu about Xu Da.

"Excuse me, miss Ye, do you know Xu Da in the village?" Shi He Ruo asked Ye Zisu a question, but an old lady next to him took the conversation away.

"Oh, my son, if you ask Miss Xiaoye about Xu Da, you are asking the wrong person. Miss Xiaoye lives in the south of the village, and that bastard Xu Da lives in the north of the village. It's less than a piece of money. Go. Of course, you said, our Xiaoye girl is so good-looking, there is no reason why Xu Da is not greedy. But how dare Xu Da, think back when Xu Da flirted with Linger in the village, she was caught by Xiaoye My brother caught him and broke his leg! From then on, when Xu Da saw her brother Xiaoye, he was like a cat seeing a mouse. He was terrified. By the way, he also respected Miss Xiaoye like a Bodhisattva ..."

Shi Heruo and Zhao Tongzi did an in-depth investigation of Ye Zisu's elder brother, Ye Junqian.

But Ye Junqian went to Hangzhou to do business two months ago, and he didn't come back home until a few days ago.

In other words, it is impossible for Ye Junqian to have anything to do with Xu Da's death.

If Ye Junqian had nothing to do with Xu Da's death, then...

What about the panicked Ye Zisu now?

Shi He Ruo shook his head, trying hard to expel this terrible thought from his mind.

Such a gentle, kind, and pure-hearted girl, just before the girl who came to rescue him regardless of her own safety...

How can I doubt her at this moment?

Shi He Ruo clenched his fists, secretly calling himself an asshole.

But soon, Shi Heruo's clenched fist slowly and feebly loosened.

Because the truth is too obvious—Ye Zisu's innocence and kindness are not fake, but it is precisely this kind of innocence and kindness that makes her reaction more authentic and not fake.

The robe in his hand had been baked until seven or eight percent dry, Shi He Ruo gently covered Ye Zisu's body with the robe: "I'll watch over the girl, let the girl sleep peacefully."

The first break of the showers, the dawn breaks.

When the dew is wet, He Ruo's already thin clothes.

There were two white candles, a stack of yellow paper, a few incense sticks, and a jug of wine scattered on the ground.And an upside-down bamboo basket, with the bottom facing up--the ink-black leaf writing is clear.
