"Eldest Brother, it's really not what you think. I live a good life now. This … was hurt by a thief. "
After Su Li explained, Su Qingtan stood aside in a daze. He didn't expect that not only he but also the Second Sister and the whole Su Family had changed greatly after a year.
Ling Qinglan didn't have time to pay attention to Su Qingtan and Yan Shixun who were in a daze. He gently untied the gauze wrapped around Su Li's left arm, revealing a long scab of blood.
Su Qingtan was shocked. It was such a long and deep wound. How painful it must be.
Su Li turned her head away and nibbled her lips. But she was thinking quickly. She was recalling whether there was any omission. At that time, although she scratched herself, she also paid attention to the direction of the hook. Even the coroner could not find any clue.
But Ling Qinglan … couldn't be underestimated!
"Such a young senior of the inborn realm, and his surname is Ling …"
Su Li recalled the seniors around him that Ling Li mentioned in the previous life. She matched them one by one and really found a role that matched the young man in front of her. He was the military counselor of the Yinmo Cult. Like the Head of the Shalou Cult, he was the right-hand man of Childe Li. People called him Qinghu. His name also had Qing.
However, she still needed to test whether they were the same person or not. After all, Ling Qinglan was a member of the Supreme Judiciary.
Su Li thought of Su Qingtan again, and her heart sank. After the eldest brother went to Yunjing, he was bound to be involved in disputes. But she didn't expect that Su Qingtan would get involved before she left Qinghe Province.
After the investigation, Ling Qinglan didn't say any conclusion. He left Su Qingtan and Yan Shixun to continue the investigation.
"You are involved in the case. This time you come here to visit your relatives. You can't intervene."
Hearing Ling Qinglan's order, Su Qingtan's eyes dimmed. This was the first case after he became the Officer of the Supreme Judiciary. But the Su Family was indeed involved in it. Even his father was locked in the prison of the Satrap's Mansion. It was really inappropriate for him to continue the investigation.
"It turns out that my father also changed your name. Su Li, it sounds much better than before."
"Yes, Eldest Brother. My family treats me very well. By the way, my mother also gave birth to the Fifth Sister. She is here …"
"…"
Mammy Li watched them talking and laughing outside the door. She couldn't help but secretly wipe her tears. It was great that the First Master could come back. Although Miss had a lot of power in the dark, she couldn't use it in the open. She had to endure the bullying from First Madam and the others, but with Young Master around, things would be different.
After chatting with Su Li for a long time and coaxing Su Li to sleep, Su Qingtan became serious. He went to the door and called Mammy Li to the room next door, "Mammy Li, tell me how Second Sister has been living in the past year. Don't hide anything!"
"Eldest Young Master, Second Miss has suffered too much this year! I almost died a few times … "
Mammy Li was on Su Li's side and immediately complained to Su Qingtan. Everything happened really. However, she also consciously concealed the other identity of Su Li and did not mention it at all.
The more Su Qingtan listened, the gloomier his face became. Although Mammy Li's words were subjective, there were some things that didn't need to be investigated. She could know clearly by asking casually. Moreover, the Second Sister's status was not low now. There should be a file about her in the Tianya House. If she couldn't find it, she could buy it and read it.
"Bang!"
Su Qingtan heard Mammy Li said that Mam. Su-Cui and Zhu Yan united to slander Su Li. They almost sent Su Li to the government office and drowned her in a pig cage, but Su Huanli turned a blind eye. Su Qingtan hammered the table fiercely and his eyes were red.
He didn't understand why his family targeted Second Sister like this and even wanted to kill her! Second Sister was so kind and naive. Even if she was treated like this, she still cared about her family. She even risked her life to sound out the enemy for his father and almost died in the hands of the enemy.
"I was born in the Su Family. They are the elders. I can't do anything, but since I am back … "Su Qingtan's eyes flashed coldly," Mam. Su-Cui, Zhu Yan, Su Zipei, don't touch Second Sister! "
…
Ling Qinglan went out of the city to investigate the case alone. He quickly changed his clothes and appeared in the adytum of the Tianya House. The middle-aged guard was also beside him.
After reading the files about Su Li, Ling Qinglan was lost in thought.
Su Li's life experience was very clean. As for the sufferings she suffered in the past and the reason why the Su Family hated her, the reason was unclear. When Su Li was Su Erya, she was simply an insignificant person. It was not worth the manpower and material resources of the Tianya House to collect information.
"Since there is no problem with Su Li, it is not good news that there are people of the Lianshi Cult in the Qinghe Town."
Ling Qinglan frowned. He took the robe handed over by the middle-aged guard and put it on.
Although he was in the inborn realm, his body was not good. Ling Li spent countless treasures to reach the inborn realm in order to compete with the ice toxin in his body. However, the growth rate of the ice toxin was increasing every year …
He didn't tell Ling Li this news.
Maybe there was a price to pay for any talent in the world. He got a brain that even Ling Li couldn't compare with, but he paid for his health.
"Head, there were traitors in the Qinghe Province before. Although they were cleaned up by the people of the Shalou Cult, many files were lost. Some of them were about the stronghold of the Lianshi Cult. I didn't do a good job. Please punish me!"
Looking at the middle-aged scholar who knelt on the ground and shivered, Ling Qinglan responded calmly. He said indifferently, "Go and accept the punishment. As for the level of punishment, it is up to you."
After rebuking the head of the branch, Ling Qinglan was lost in meditation for a long time. The middle-aged guard gently put the files about the Qinghe Town on the table. Then he went out and closed the curtain, leaving Ling Qinglan alone.
"Ahem …"
After a long time, there was a cough in the room. The middle-aged guard immediately rushed in with an elixir bottle nervously. But he saw Ling Qinglan holding a file and laughing wildly.
"The Linli Building? There is a mysterious force in the Qinghe Town that even the Tianya House can't investigate! Interesting, haha, interesting, ahem … "
Seeing Ling Qinglan coughed again, the middle-aged man immediately stepped forward and poured out a black elixir with a strong fragrance for him.
Ling Qinglan took it and swallowed it. Then he stopped coughing. He shook his head angrily and said, "You are so sick. You are useless."
The middle-aged guard shook his head silently. He remembered that his master vomited blood every day before he broke through the inborn hurdle and almost waited for death. But now his situation was much better.
"Let's go to the Linli Building with me."
Ling Qinglan said. He took off his thick robe, opened the door and went out.
…
At this moment, in the Linli Building, Su Li dressed as "Mr. Li" and was lost in thought in the dark night.
If Ling Qinglan was Qinghu, he would definitely be interested in the Linli Building after visiting the Tianya House. She was waiting, and she knew it wouldn't be long.
Even Su Qingtan couldn't violate the rules of the Qinghe Girls' School. What's more, Su Qingtan was originally from the Qinghe School. He couldn't disgrace the school. Therefore, he moved out this afternoon. But he came to visit frequently. So, Su Li was free at night.
"Su Li, Ling Qinglan is here."
Qu Qingning came up to report. Su Li nodded slightly. He immediately went to greet them. After a while, Ling Qinglan came to the attic and sat opposite to Su Li with a smile.
He finally knew why the Tianya House couldn't find anything. Only the ordinary waiters didn't disguise themselves along the way. Those who had a profound breath had a thin layer of disguise on their faces. He could see it at a glance with his eyesight of the inborn realm.
They all disguised themselves. It was impossible to find out their origins. What's more, it was a mystery whether the owner of the Linli Building, "Mr. Li", was a man or a woman. Although the Tianya House judged that the owner was a woman, he couldn't believe it.
"I'm Ling Qinglan, a junior. Nice to meet you, Mr. Li."
Ling Qinglan's behavior was gentle and elegant. He always held the folding fan in his hand. He could be called a good childe.
Su Li smiled slightly. For the sake of caution, she manipulated "Sound Acquaintance" and replied, "Childe Ling, you are too modest. If the most outstanding detective in the Supreme Judiciary is also a latecomer, I am afraid that no one in the world can be called outstanding."
"Hahaha, Mr. Li is really well-informed."
Ling Qinglan didn't panic at all when his identity was exposed. Instead, he said with a smile, "I heard that there is an excellent winery in the Qinghe Town. After coming here and having a look, I really feel that it is very good."
Although Ling Qinglan said those polite words, his heart slightly sank. The voice just now didn't seem to be a human's language. He couldn't tell whether it was a man or a woman. It was not difficult for him to guess that the person in front of him must have used some means to communicate with others without making a sound.
Tricky!
Ling Qinglan felt that the person in front of him was tricky for the second time. The first time was when he met Ling Li. At that time, his health was too weak and he was not as calm as he was now.
"Mr. Li" was really not easy to deal with!
Thinking of this, Ling Qinglan continued to say, "But don't you think that you have violated a taboo?"
"Oh? What's the taboo? "
Su Li looked indifferent and said, "'Li' is just taken from the name of the winery. It has no other meaning. Will it offend others?"
Ling Qinglan looked at Su Li who was wearing a veil. He slightly grasped the edge of the chair with his fingers and leaned forward. He said in a low voice,
"'Mr. Li' reminds me of 'Childe Li', the Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult in Jianghu. Is it possible that … 'Mr. Li' has a secret relationship with that Hierarch?"
"Giggle …"
Su Li suddenly trembled with laughter. The weird and indescribable voice made people's hair stand on end.
"If so, it is really big news in the martial arts circle."
Su Li replied in a low voice and then said with a smile, "It's a pity … Childe Ling should know whether I have a relationship with Hierarch or not."
Ling Qinglan's pupils immediately contracted for a moment, but his expression didn't change. He still said with a smile, "What are you talking about, Mr. Li? Why don't I understand what you're saying? How can I touch such a high and mighty Sect Master? "
"Childe Ling Qinglan, you can't touch him. There is still Qinghu."
Su Li's tone was cold. Ling Qinglan's heart contracted violently. Did she know his real identity or guessed it?!
Although Ling Qinglan tried his best to keep his expression unchanged and even his breathing normal, the shock of his state of mind still affected the only variable.
"Ahem …"
