Chapter 283: ups and downs

  Chapter 283 Unrest

   After Ruan Youqing comforted her gently, Yue Ling returned to her previous look, and told Ruan Youqing about her experience in a concise manner.

  After hearing that she had lost some memory, Ruan Youqing's eyes darkened, and she said in a strict voice, "You mean, you only remember being in that dark room when you woke up again after being photographed?"

  Yue Ling nodded, and said in a weak voice: "Yes, master, and Yue Ling doesn't remember what you just told me about Xing'er. Could it be... what's wrong with Xing'er?"

Ruan Youqing shook his head, with a gloomy expression on his face: "Xing'er should be fine, Zisu has already tried her. She did see you chatting with acquaintances on the street, and then told her to let her go back to Xingxing first." , what are you going to do...um...you just said...the woman you met in the dark room said that they don't even remember how they were taken there?"

"yes."

   "Could it be that...the other party has abilities similar to Zisu's? But Zisu attracts people to tell the truth, but this person can control people's speech and actions..."

  Ruan Youqing gradually frowned, and the more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt.

  When she came out of Zhaixing Tower and was followed, did that person also want to...control her?

Seeing that Ruan Youqing seemed to be thinking about something, Yue Ling approached and whispered: "Master, the sister in the dark room also told me that the place where we were imprisoned was near Honglu Temple, and the man who abused women often wore a suit without any decorations." The black robe...so...Yueling guessed...this person..."

   "Is it Kugli, the wizard of Guz Kingdom?" Ruan Youqing immediately understood who Yueling was talking about.

Honglu Temple was originally intended to receive envoys from foreign countries, and the houses around it were naturally vacated long ago, in case some high-ranking envoys from other countries were not used to living in Honglu Temple and there was a mansion outside where they could stay for a few days .

  Although Jingzhong has thoroughly investigated, but this kind of place...

   No one would dare to search carefully.

   What's more, Honglu Temple is not too far from Kong Qing's residence, and there is a river beside it.

  The more he thought about it, the more Ruan Youqing became sure that Kugli was the instigator of the woman's disappearance.

   But...what on earth is he going to do...

  Yueling just explained that she came out of an underground waterway.

   It's just that the waterway... is very dirty.

  Thanks to Yueling's firm will, she was able to hold back her nausea and run out.

  Because Kongqing's house was getting closer, the naked Yueling found here in a panic...

Feeling distressed, she reached out and touched Yueling's head again. Ruan Youqing's voice was like a gentle breeze: "Yueling, you wait here for me first, and I will send someone to send you back to the Zhaixing Pavilion to recuperate. Zisu is also worried."

After saying that, Ruan Youqing turned to Kong Qing and said, "Kong Qing, you take the child and mother-in-law back to Ruan Mansion to live in for a while, and don't move out until this matter is resolved. Go back to Nguyen Mansion."

   Kong Qing knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately nodded in response.

When Ruan Youqing was about to go out, Yue Ling suddenly took her hand, and said with concern: "Master, you have to be careful too. The wizards in the country of Guz are too scary. The dark room... the dark room... is like It's like hell."

  Although Yue Ling is Yue Jian's older sister, the two of them are not very old.

  On weekdays, Yue Ling, who looks clear and cold, is now like the helpless little girl who just came to Zhai Xing Lou.

   Presumably... what she saw and heard really scared her.

  Ruan Youqing's heart softened again, she hated girls being wronged the most.

   "Don't worry, I know what's going on. It's not easy for me, a young lady in the general's mansion, to come forward when it involves envoys from other countries. So..."

   She is going to find someone.

  A person who... dares to dig three feet to find someone without any reason.

  …

  Gu Changan was rarely at leisure. When he was casually flipping through a collection of poems, Tian Wen appeared in front of him with a strange expression on his face.

   "Master! Miss Ruan has come to Gu Mansion to look for you!"

  「Huh? Came here to find me?」

  In the past, the two met either on the street, or in Ruan Mansion, or in Quanling Villa.

   This little fox suddenly came to Gu's mansion to look for him...

  Hmm... I guess I didn't miss him...

  Gu Changan withdrew those pleasant little thoughts in time, put down the book and immediately got up to greet him.

  The little fox came to him on his own initiative, so he must have something important to do.

  Could it be... because of the disappearance of women these days?

   And when Gu Changan just opened the door and walked out, Ruan Youqing was already led over by someone.

  After signaling everyone to leave, Gu Changan cut to the chase and said, "But do you want me to do something?"

  Ruan Youqing, who was still thinking about how to speak, was stunned for a moment, then she nodded and said directly:

   "Master Gu should have heard about the missing woman case recently, right?"

   "Do you want to investigate?" At this time, Gu Changan didn't have any expression on his face.

  Ruan Youqing frowned and nodded: "I don't want to check, but I have to."

   "Then this is going to be the job of the criminal department."

   "Master Gu!" Ruan Youqing's expression turned serious: "This matter may involve Kugli, a wizard from Guz Kingdom."

   "Why is he involved? You Qing, are you sure?"

  Ruan Youqing nodded and continued: "To be honest, my person just escaped from the other party. From her description, the first person I thought of was him. What's more..."

   Immediately afterwards, Ruan Youqing told all about Yueling's experience without any concealment.

   After learning that these people don't remember how they were arrested, and the cruel methods of the other party, Gu Changan's face finally became completely gloomy.

   They are still so arrogant in Ningguo!

   "I'm going to send people to check all the houses around Honglu Temple." Gu Changan had already started to go out.

  However, when he saw Ruan Youqing still following him, he hurriedly stopped, then looked at her seriously and said:

   "Go back to the Ruan Mansion first. The other party seems to be deliberately targeting women. You will be more dangerous. Also, don't think about sneaking out to investigate on your own. There are many weird things in the Guz Kingdom, so you can't take the risk yourself."

   Seeing the undisguised concern on Gu Changan's face, Ruan Youqing could only obediently nod in agreement.

   It’s just that Gu Chang’an had just sent her back to Ruan’s Mansion, when she went back to Zhaixing Tower and took someone to Kong Qing’s house to bring Yue Ling and the fan who accompanied her back to Zhaixing Tower.

  After seeing Yue Ling came back safe and sound, Yue Jian immediately cried and threw herself into her arms.

  Seeing the two sisters hugging each other and crying, Ruan Youqing felt very uncomfortable.

  However, after sitting in the Zhaixing Building for a while, Ruan Youqing suddenly discovered a very serious matter.

  At a time like this...

   Perilla did not appear?

   "Where's the perilla!"

  Ruan Youqing suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

  Yuejian exposed her head from Yueling's arms, and then said with a blank face: "Isn't it the master, you sent a message to send Zisu out of the city?"

  Ruan Youqing's face instantly turned extremely pale.

  The opponent moved so fast!

  Yueling had just escaped, but Zisu...was tricked into being tricked away!
