"Sir, I'm sorry."
Li Xiao sat at the table.
Her neck and wrists were wrapped in bandages.
Her complexion was a little pale.
But she had already regained her spirit.
Chen Jue sat at the wooden table in the room and drank tea.
His expression was not very good.
Today, several people had grabbed Li Xiao's wrist when they rushed to save Li Xiao when she was in trouble.
They even touched her.
Therefore, Li Xiao saw several people's future scenes today.
She had been thinking about two things for a while. One was the expression of Lord Chen when he came to save her, and the other was the future scenes she saw of those people.
"What are you sorry for?" Chen Jue put down his teacup.
His eyes looked at the bandages on her neck and wrists.
Only then did he speak.
His voice was deep, showing that he was in a very bad mood.
"I always cry... I'm sorry." Li Xiao pursed her lips guiltily. She lowered her head and secretly looked at Lord Chen's expression.
Lord Chen wanted to save her.
When he ran towards her, he was like an unparalleled hero. His face was righteous and his eyes were firm.
He was heroic and extraordinary.
When he picked her up, his arms were so strong.
When he ran with her,
It was as if she was just a child. It was not difficult to carry her.
But she was already so old.
Her mother and brother could not carry her anymore.
"It's already like this.
Don't talk nonsense! "Chen Jue frowned.
He handed a cup of water on the table to Li Xiao. "Drink some water."
With her broken voice, how could she say anything?
"Sir..." Li Xiao drank some water, but she still stubbornly wanted to 'chat'.
Chen Jue said fiercely, "Have a good rest."
After saying that, he stood up.
Li Xiao was anxious and shouted at the top of her voice, "Sir, I have something important to say."
Chen Jue turned his head and his brows furrowed. He wanted to scold her for being disobedient, but he saw that she was anxious to say something. Although he was angry, he suppressed his temper and sat back down.
"…" Li Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.
"Before I was grabbed by the neck, I looked at everyone's faces. There was one person's face that was different, but I … I can't remember who it was." Li Xiao pursed her lips. At that time, her mind was in a mess and she couldn't tell whose future it was.
In the future, she saw a young master in a blue robe die. Just like how Xu Ting's younger sister killed the fifth daughter of Grand Secretary Liu's family, the murderer used a hairpin.
A woman's beautiful ornaments, gold and silver hairpins, could also be used to kill.
Beautiful things were easy to attract covetous eyes and jealousy.
The person who touched her seemed to be the same person as the dead young master.
A maidservant suddenly jumped out and stabbed the hairpin in her hair into the neck of the blue-robed young master. Blood spurted out and could not be stopped no matter how hard she tried.
After the blue-robed young master fell to the ground, he twitched for a while before he died.
The owner of that future scene seemed to be a person wearing a black robe.
Li Xiao saw him bend down and try to press on the blue-robed young master's wound, but only his hands and black sleeves were stained with blood …
She had a deep memory of that scene. At the end of the scene, there was a pair of slightly trembling hands stained with blood.
She felt the fear and sadness of the owner of that future scene.
She didn't know the blue-robed young master who died, nor did she know the owner of this memory, who was the person wearing the black robe.
But she knew that soon, someone would die.
The murderer controlled a maidservant and started to kill again.
It was the murderer who also wanted to kill her!
"Face …" Chen Jue looked at Li Xiao trying to make up a story. He wanted to open his mouth and expose her, but when he saw how carefully she hid the secret of her special ability, he couldn't bear to do it. He sighed and asked in a deep voice, "What information did that person reveal from his face?"
You saw the information revealed from his face, but you didn't remember what that person looked like. Who is he?
Can't you tell whether he is a young master or a bodyguard?
This little girl was really too stupid when she started to lie.
"In the near future, people around that person will die."
Li Xiao pursed her lips and tried to organize her words, but it was very difficult to describe that scene as a conclusion. She scratched her head, "It was a murder weapon. The murder weapon is related to women, and it is very sharp. It is something that a woman would carry around with her — —"
Chen Jue frowned. He was a little impatient, but he still listened to her patiently and carefully.
"A hairpin." Chen Jue said.
"Ah, yes.
I think it is also a hairpin! "
Li Xiao nodded her head like she was pounding garlic. But after nodding a few times, her neck hurt badly. After grimacing, she obediently leaned against the bedpost and continued, "I think it is possible that it was also killed by this murderer."
"…" Chen Jue sighed and nodded.
"Is it possible to deduce the identity of the dead person?" Chen Jue asked.
Li Xiao thought for a while. Should she do another divination?
"Where … where are my three copper coins?"
Chen Jue felt that his patience was rapidly running out.
But he still helped Li Xiao to take out the three copper coins and handed them to her.
Li Xiao pretended to seriously rub the three copper coins. Then, she stared at the copper coins sincerely and threw them to the flat quilt beside the bed.
Chen Jue seemed to be watching her performance attentively.
"The dead young man seemed to be a young master. His status should be very high."
She said very slowly as she racked her brain, "There was water vapor when he died. Judging from the time, the murder should have happened after the rain."
"After the rain?" Chen Jue raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Li Xiao nodded, "Look here. It shows that it is related to water, and it is in the time position. That is to say, when the murder happened, it was after the rain."
"…" If it wasn't for his great willpower, he would have reached out and hit her head. This girl was really good at making up stories. If it was someone else, they would have been fooled by her.
After the rain … the sun was high today, which meant that it wasn't today.
He had to find the murderer before the rain. Otherwise, there would be more deaths. Moreover, it was a young master with a very high status.
"You should rest first." The wound had been treated, and Zhang Tang and the others should be back by now.
Chen Jue said and stood up.
"Sir …" Li Xiao saw that he was about to leave and subconsciously panicked. She sat up straight and stared at him with round eyes.
"…" Chen Jue looked back.
"…" Li Xiao opened her mouth but found that she had nothing to say. She smacked her lips and said dryly, "You … thank you."
"Mm." Chen Jue nodded. He walked around the screen expressionlessly and walked out.
Li Xiao sighed and leaned softly on the big pillow. However, her heart was still flustered. Although her body was very tired, she still sat up straight. She blinked her eyes and looked around vigilantly.
It was as if a monster would appear at any time and eat her up.
"Don't worry and sleep. I will meet Zhang Tang and the others in your courtyard. If you need anything, just shout. There will be people in the courtyard." Chen Jue's voice suddenly came from outside the screen.
It was a low, deep, and thick voice.
