Chapter 127 I WOULD BE VERY DISAPPOINTED

LUO YAN was being dragged by Shen Ji Yun towards the dungeon prison of the manor. Well, 'dragged' was not really the right term. Shen Ji Yun was pulling him so gently that Luo Yan had to double his efforts in acting just to make it look that he was being 'dragged'. He also had to make sure that he wouldn't look out of character. So it was even much harder.

But he didn't have the heart to tell him off. Because he knew it was only because he cared. Even though they only met for more than a month, Luo Yan already felt like he knew him well enough. Behind his emotionless exterior, he's really just a big softie inside. Well, at least probably to those who he considered part of his inner circle.

Luo Yan was actually a bit happy knowing that someone like Shen Ji Yun could should his soft side to him. It kind of made him feel special in some way.

"Are all the people from Yuexing Pavilion in the dungeon?" he asked in a low voice so the people they bumped on the way wouldn't hear him.

"Yes. But the four dancers who danced with you were put in a separate cell, waiting to be interrogated," Shen Ji Yun answered in an equally low voice.

"So they haven't been interrogated yet?"

"No. At least I think they haven't."

"Then Brother Ji Yun should put me in there with them," Luo Yan said. "I think I could get the information we need if I talk to them for a bit."

Those four were the primary suspects in the assassination attempt against the crown prince and Prince Lin Rong. Frankly, he's kind of surprised that they weren't being tortured yet to get an answer out of them. Maybe this was the game's way to force the players to get the information out of the four dancers.

"Are you sure?" Shen Ji Yun asked.

"What, does Brother Ji Yun not trust me?" he asked with a bit of teasing in his voice.

"I do. I'm just worried that the dungeon they're in would be too dirty for you."

That answer almost made Luo Yan laugh. "But we're going to the dungeon anyway. Where does Brother Ji Yun plan to put me then?"

"There's a special cell in the dungeon solely dedicated for prisoners with special identity. It's much cleaner than the other cells. It has its own bed where you could sit while you wait."

How could Shen Ji Yun put the rabbit in such a dirty environment?

"Brother Ji Yun, I was the one tasked by the crown prince to investigate. How could I do that when I'm separated from the NPCs I should be investigating?" Luo Yan asked a bit incredulously.

"Then I will call the four dancers one by one to the cell and we will interrogate them together."

This time, Luo Yan did chuckle. Who could have known that this usually expressionless guy could also have this kind of unreasonable side? "That would only put their guards up. Which in turn would make it even harder for us to get the information we needed." When he noticed that Shen Ji Yun seemed to be still struggling whether he should agree or not so Luo Yan added, "Does Brother Ji Yun think that I'm so weak and delicate that I couldn't even handle dark and dirty places? If so, then I would be very disappointed."

Shen Ji Yun felt panicked when he heard that. "No, that's not it! I know you're strong." Probably not physically, but mentally and psychologically? Very much so. If not, then he probably wouldn't be able to function normally like any boy his age after waking up from a seven-year coma. So no, Shen Ji Yun would never ever think that he's weak. "It's just that, the image of you inside a dirty cell simply doesn't sit well with me."

Luo Yan raised one of his brows. Now that's an answer he didn't expect. "Does Brother Ji Yun think that I'm some sort of fairy that doesn't deserve to be covered in any kind of dirt?" he teased. "Although I look like one, I'm still just a plain human. And humans would get covered in dirt from time to time. That's how we grow and change."

Shen Ji Yun stopped for a moment before he continued walking. What Luo Yan last said was probably not related to what they're talking about. But it spoke of a truth that when people stumbled, it helped them grew as a person.

"I understand."

Luo Yan smiled. "Brother Ji Yun should watch my own brand of interrogation. I promise, you'll definitely be entertained."

On the other side of the manor, Duan Yu made his way to the courtyard where the corpse of the second young miss was. After arrogantly flaunting the name of the crown prince, none of the servants bothered to stop him.

He hadn't entered the courtyard yet but he could already hear the very loud crying of probably two or three women. When he did enter, what he saw was two women huddled over the body lying on the floor which he could only assume as the corpse of the second young miss.

"My daughter! Why? Why do you have to take your life?" the older of the two women cried.

"Sister sister" the younger one muttered, silently crying.

Judging by their dialogues, these two were probably the mother and the younger sister. Both of them looked disheveled. They didn't even look like noble ladies.

Duan Yu crouched down at the side of the corpse.

Noticing his presence, the mother hysterically shouted at him. "Who are you? Who let you in?"

Duan Yu ignored the woman and just stared at the corpse, particularly at the mark around her neck. It certainly matched what he heard about her hanging herself. But just to make sure, he still used one of his skill as the 'godly doctor'.

And the result surprised him quite a bit.
