It's been ten days and I still haven't found anything.

Hua Yi ruled his thinking with strong self-control, preventing himself from touching that terrible idea that could drive him crazy.

As usual, he went to the prison every day and treated that young master Zhang well.He did have many ways to deal with him that could make him life or death. After warming him up in the morning and pouring cold water in the afternoon, Young Master Zhang didn't have a single good skin on his body, so he was just hanging on with his breath.

Today, with a smile, Hua Yi broke the tendon in one of his hands without blinking.

Zhang Fuyao had already been subdued by Hua Yi, he had long since lost his previous arrogance, and was enduring unbearable torture every day, only hoping that he would faint from the pain sooner each time he was tortured.

In fact, he is also miserable to some extent. Every time he can't stand the torture and wants to die, Shang Shu sneaks in sneakily and stealthily, and cheers him up with earnest words, saying that Hua Yi will be there soon. He couldn't stand it anymore, as long as he could hold on, he could get out alive.

Shang Shu could sneak in, but Hua Yi secretly acquiesced, in order to prevent Zhang Fuyao from going to death easily, experience double torture, and be unable to escape.

When Zhang Fuyao was delirious with pain, he would yell some words, most of which were scolding Hua Yi. After breaking his tendons today, he scolded him over and over again, Hua Yi was very impatient, Staring at the poker in the corner, he wondered if he was going to pull out his tongue.

Zhang Fuyao suddenly struggled violently, and he said grimly, "They are by your side! They are by your side!"

Hua Yi's heart skipped a beat, he grabbed Zhang Fuyao's chin and forced him to continue talking.

That Zhang Fuyao couldn't stop laughing, "I can see it! It's turned into a ghost, wandering around you!" What he said next was incoherent and illogical insults.

Hua Yi did not continue to entangle with him, and after pouring a pot of pepper water on him, he went back to the study directly.

As soon as he arrived, someone handed over a letter, Hua Yi opened it, and it read at the beginning: My brother Song Tan's husband is well, below is a lot of eloquent and colorful polite words.

Hua Yi frowned, and patiently read halfway through, the line read: If you think I'm wordy, just turn it over and look at the back. If there are clues that can solve your confusion, you won't return without success.

He turned the letter over, only to see that on the back there were only three big characters flying like dragons and phoenixes: Between Earth and Water.Look at the red inscription: full of smoke.

He knew about Yan Guangman, so he didn't like it very much. He felt that Yan Guangman's name was too mysterious, and Tao Jinnian, the host, was nothing more than a black and white information dealer who sold other people's gossip.

But he didn't expect Song Tan to have a close friendship with Tao Jinnian.

Now that there is no extra way, Hua Yi can only hope and smoke, and he struggles to think about the hidden meaning of "between the ground and the water".

Under the blue sky and the sun, there was a gust of wind, and after the clouds covered the sun, only a spot of light leaked out.Suddenly, a heavy rain fell down without warning.

Hua Yi looked out of the window, listening to the sad wind of the tall tree, and watching the dripping rainwater splashing on the water surface of the pond.

Between the ground and the water, between the ground and the water—

Hua Yi repeated it several times, and suddenly remembered what Zhang Fuyao said: "They are by your side."

In an instant everything was silent, Hua Yi's pupils constricted, his face turned pale, he got up quickly and slipped into the silver-thread-like rain curtain.

When the Ministry of Criminal Justice was focused on arresting Zhang Fuyao, the Ministry of Industry once asked someone to repair the underground drainage system of the Ministry of Criminal Justice on the grounds that the flood season was approaching. At that time, Hua Yi had never thought about such trivial matters at all. The person sent by the Ministry of Industry was called Zhang Su. During their investigation, he was related to You Pushe by marriage, and this official was also arranged by You Pushe.

And the person who has been supervising the work is Shang Shu, the old guy knows everything!

Between the ground and the water—referring to the open ditches and culverts under the drainage system. There are criss-crossing drainage pipes underground like a spider web, which are enough for water storage and drainage, and enough for people to hide.

The heavy rain was pouring down, which was a bad omen, and the gutter was flooded with rainwater. If the five girls were still alive, they might drown if they were hiding here.

Hua Yi hurriedly summoned the staff of the Ministry of Justice, and sent everyone to brave the rain to search for the "ditch eye stones" around the courtyard and at the root of the wall. They just want to dig out these ditch eye stones to find out.

After hearing Hua Yi's instructions, everyone was moving quickly, and no one spoke.In the icy rain, their clothes were wet and their hair was sticking to their faces. They silently and subduedly worried about the worst outcome: after so many days, it might be bad or bad.

Hua Yi looked gravely at the people in front of him wielding shovels and hoes to dig up the ground and smash the stones.

Someone opened an oil-paper umbrella and covered Hua Yi's head in a flattering manner. Hua Yi glanced at the rainwater dripping down the corner of the umbrella.

Then he lifted his foot and kicked that person, and the person was frightened, and hurriedly knelt down towards Hua Yi.Hua Yi didn't say anything, got up and picked up another shovel, walked to the eye stone, and worked with everyone.

Dirty muddy water and splashed gravel splashed on their shoes and trousers, and they had no time to pay attention to the rough mud.

They have already dug a lot of ditch eye stones, and the rain is getting heavier. Due to the damage of the drainage channel, it cannot be drained into the river, and some water has been stored in the courtyard. They could only step in the muddy water and continue digging the rest of the eye stones.

Even the air became somewhat cloudy, and their mood became more and more pessimistic...

Hua Yi's whole body was already drenched, he said firmly, "Even if we searched all the drainage pipes and ditches today, we still have to live to see people and die to see corpses."

Suddenly someone stopped, he thought he was having auditory hallucinations.

After a moment of silence, they all held their breath, and intermittently suppressed sobbing came from the sound of the ticking rain. The voice was desolate, hoarse, weak and vague, but it was clearly a soft female voice!

They froze for a moment, their expressions were overjoyed, and the hands holding the tools were trembling.

Hua Yi's eyes flickered for a while, but he held his breath: "Go and ask the doctor to wait! When digging, be careful not to hurt them!"

The other officials of the Ministry of Punishment swept away the gloom, and dug that side of the land even harder. They silently prayed that these girls would be safe and sound. They carefully and quickly removed the soil and stones, revealing a gray-white stone slab.Carefully fearing that it might landslide, slowly exerting force to lift off the stone slab——

It was a small hole, and some rainwater had already accumulated in it, and it had already reached their chests, and the consequences would be unimaginable if it was later.The five girls were embarrassed and curled up with their eyes closed, their faces pale, but they were clinging to each other, holding the hands of the people around them tightly, as if they were giving each other the courage to live, but they were already in a daze. Can subconsciously whimper.

The things around them caught Hua Yi's attention. They were several empty water bladders and cloth sleeves that seemed to be wrapped in food. The people who wanted to detain them had a conscience and left them food and water.

Some officials of the Ministry of Punishment couldn't help their eyes turning red. The smell of sweat and fishy smell from the pit hit their faces. It was a bit pungent, but it was also fresh and lively.

Over the past few days, they have been holding their breath under the pressure and tirelessly looking for these five girls over and over again. If it weren't for Hua Yi's insistence, they would have almost wiped out all their patience and moral expectations .

The rain fell on the faces of the girls, and one of them was woken up by the water droplets. She slowly opened her eyes, and slowly raised her head to look at the crowd looking around them. The surging air made her tremble, The fire of birth flickered in her eyes, and the rain mixed with tears made her face dazzled, like a little cat. This fresh life is really pitiful and cute.

She opened her dry lips and spoke silently, her mouth shape was: "Thank you."

The author has something to say:

I won't go into too much detail about the investigation, after all, the most important thing is their emotional drama

Song Tan will come out soon, come out to clean up Huagou (I really like this name hahahaha)

I am actually very happy for every comment I receive, no matter what the opinion is, bow down.
