"They need someone who has the status, can do things, and has a real hatred for us. After Shi Rang was rescued, the royal sect gave him the spell and promised him to take revenge. When Shi Rang found out, he readily agreed that such a villain had been blinded by hatred."

"This is also why he wants to use talismans in the scene of exploration, because he doesn't know how to do it at all! After setting up the formation, the Royal Guard Sect settled him here, both for protection and for surveillance. Later, the formation was broken, and the Royal Guard Sect knew that it was only a matter of time before we found him, so they took the initiative to kill him."

Ruan Yu hesitated and said, "Then... he didn't commit suicide or a celestial master?"

"It seems that's the case now." Zhu Lin looked at Shi and let the blood on his neck: "The murderer killed him with one blow, and he was just a master. In this matter, Shi Rang was just a pawn."

Ruan Yu was a little disappointed: "Wouldn't that be the clue broke again? Light..."

"Huh." Zhu Lin found something wrong. Shi Rang's hand was actually tightly held! Most people's hands would naturally loosen after death, unless... he deliberately squeezed his hand before death.

Zhu Lin grabbed Shi Rang's hand, then opened his tight palm, and a blood-stained note was placed inside.

"Note..." Zhu Lin frowned and said, "Does Shi Rang want to leave us any information?"

Ruan Yu said in surprise: "Can it be the murderer left behind? They want to lead us into the trap."

Zhu Lin touched the blood on the corner of Shi Rang's mouth. He shook his head and said, "No, hold the note tightly. This must be the will of the deceased to do it. If the murderer does this after Shi Rang's death, then the goal can be achieved, but Shi Rang's fingers will not be so natural, and there is no trace of injury."

"The blood on the corner of his mouth has become semi-black, while the blood on his neck is still dark red. The difference between the two bloodstains is no more than twenty minutes, but it can be confirmed that these two bloodstains come from different injuries."

Zhu Lin sighed: "I can infer this way that after we broke the formation, Shi Rang was backfired by the formation. He was so frightened that he wanted to escape, but found that he could not leave the secret room at all. Shi Rang knew his destiny."

"As a famous talent in Kaifeng, although he is exaggerated and artificial, he is not stupid. He had long thought that there would be this moment after failure, so he held the note he had prepared in his hand. The murderer killed him with one blow, so he did not conduct a careful investigation. He should have wanted to leave us some clues."

Ruan Yu looked at Zhu Lin in surprise: "It's blood and time, and it's inference. How could you know so much?"

Zhu Lin smiled. He couldn't answer. He had been in the Criminal Investigation Department for a while hundreds of years later.

"When a person is about to die, his words are good."

Zhu Lin opened the note and wrote two words in blood: Lin Family.

There was a bite mark on Shi Rang's finger. It seemed that he had bitten his finger before the murderer came and wrote down the clue, but there was not enough time and he could not do more.

"Lin Family..."

Zhu Lin took a deep breath: "Since Shi Rang wrote about the Lin family in such a short time, it means that the clues of the Lin family can help us find the real murderer behind the scenes, the Lin family... how many secrets are hidden behind the massacre of that year."

"It actually has something to do with the Lin family." Ruan Yu pondered: "Then I have a rumor here, do you want to listen?"

"What?"

Ruan Yu whispered: "This is just a legend. Chai Rong was seriously ill and returned to Kaifeng from the front line to recuperate. Kaifeng's form changed drastically. The new emperor was still very young. All forces began to plan how to get more benefits when the new emperor ascended the throne."

"In this chaotic period, the Lin family was wiped out overnight. You should know that, as a well-known merchant in Kaifeng City, the Lin family has always used money to support the royal family."

"When everyone was planning, the Lin family stood firmly on the side of the royal family." Zhu Lin chuckled, interesting.

Ruan Yu continued: "And after Chai Rong searched, he put the Lin family affairs aside because of illness. The one who took over... was Zhao Kuangyin."

Zhu Lin was surprised: "Zhao Kuangyin!"

"Yes!" Ruan Yu said: "After Zhao Kuangyin took over, he searched symbolically and ignored it. So someone was rumoring that the person from the Lin family was Zhao Kuangyin!"

"At that time, it was indeed possible that Zhao Kuangyin would destroy the family in order to seek a higher position, but this is all rumor."

Zhu Lin nodded, and he suddenly laughed: "Do you know that these are all bad remarks to General Zhao? If you say these in front of me, you are not afraid that I will tell General Zhao."

Ruan Yu smiled, and he put his jade finger on Zhu Lin's lips: "Young Master... Are you willing to give up?"

Zhu Lin touched Ruan Yu's finger with his tongue: "It seems that my sister understands it very much."

"Geehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Zhu Lin likes Ruan Yu very much, he is ambiguous but not frivolous, like a lover, but not.

"Although it is a rumor, it is very authentic." Zhu Lin analyzed: "General Zhao has a lofty ambition. A family like the Lin family is just a footstep in front of him. He knew that even if the Lin family was destroyed, with Chai Rong's situation, the final search would still fall into his hands. The Lin family supports the royal family, which is an obstacle for him."

"In this case, General Zhao has the reason and ability to remove the Lin family."

Ruan Yu suddenly felt a chill coming from behind: "You mean..."

"Just guess!" Zhu Lin said lightly: "From the information you gave, General Zhao had searched the Lin family. Assuming it was made by General Zhao, then the Lin family must have something that he is interested in, or something that he is afraid of."

"It was left unresolved later, which means that General Zhao did not find what he wanted... No one dared to move the Lin family's house for five years. If we look for it, we might be able to find it." Zhu Lin said in a deep voice: "Of course I said it, this is just a guess!"

Ruan Yu nodded: "It's really just a guess, but you have to know that the information left to us by Shi Rang is the Lin family! Then the Lin family must have a secret waiting for us to investigate."

"Yeah." Zhu Lin said: "Then let's see what happened to the Lin family five years ago. The exploration technique cannot go back to five years ago, but no one has touched the Lin family's house for five years. We will definitely find useful clues."

Ruan Yu had a hint of worry in his eyes: "It's been so long, and many clues have turned into dust. I hope we can find them."
