Chapter 2148: Unt.i.tled
Feng Xun smirked and said, “You made contact with Lord Wu.”
Jun Linshen was even more furious. “So did you! Why am I the killer?!”
Feng Xun smirked. “I was trying to catch a spy. Why would I kill him? Use your brain! I have no motive!”
Jun Linshen said, “Are you saying that I have a motive?”
Feng Xun didn’t know what to say.
Feng Wu smiled and said, “You do.”
Jun Linshen stared at Feng Wu. “Brother, are you trying to get me killed so that no one can challenge your position as the crown prince?”
Feng Wu smiled and said calmly, “First of all, this is a compet.i.tion between you and me. The first one to solve the case will get that jade ring.”
Jun Linshen tried to interject, but Feng Wu went on. “Seeing that I’ve been doing so well, naturally, you would want to kill Lord Wu to sabotage my plan.”
Jun Linshen stared at Feng Wu and said stubbornly, “No, I didn’t do it.”
Feng Wu wouldn’t listen to his excuse. “Secondly, if other people believe that Feng Xun killed Lord Wu, Master Eunuch Wu, the head eunuch, would hold a grudge against him.
“Jun Linshen, you’ve always been so petty.” Feng Wu shook her head.
With his plan exposed, Jun Linshen’s face turned red with frustration. He shouted, “No! I didn’t do it! You can’t force me to admit to something that I didn’t do!”
Feng Wu smiled and turned to Xuan Yi. “Although Thousand Silk is said to be odorless and neither humans nor dogs can smell it, a type of dog with pink fur has especially acute senses. They can smell it. Now, bring me that pink dog.”
She then glanced at Jun Linshen. “The killer can’t remove the smell of Thousand Silk on his hands. The dog will soon tell us who he is!”
Jun Linshen stared at Feng Wu in terror.
Feng Wu ignored him and turned to look at Master Chu.
While they were talking, Master Chu had been dissecting Lord Wu. Soon, all the flesh was removed, and there was only a skeleton left.
On the bone…
“Look! There’s something written on it!” Feng Xun cried out.
Whoos.h.!.+
Everyone looked at the bone.
Feng Xun was right. There was something carved into one of the bones on the arm.
“Soul of Dongsang. Serial number: Saturn 0003.” Feng Xun read it out loud. “I know what ‘Soul of Dongsang’ is. What does that number mean?”
Feng Wu said, “That’s easy.”
All eyes were on Feng Wu.
Feng Wu glanced at the 13 suspects. Four of them were guards.
Emperor Wu ordered all of them to leave the room.
Soon, there were only a few people left.
Feng Wu looked at Emperor Wu and said, “Master Linghu chased the Dongsang Kingdom out of our empire 13 years ago, but they wouldn’t have any of it. So, they left something behind.
“That ‘something’ is officially known as the revival list of the Dongsang Kingdom.
“There are 77 people in total. They’re divided into seven 10-man teams.
“The number on Lord Wu means that he was No. 3 in the Saturn team.”
…
The others were all astonished.
Emperor Wu was shocked because there was such a revival group hiding in the Junwu Empire.
Jun Linshen was shocked because “Jun Linyuan” had pretty much figured out everything when he still knew next to nothing.
He was filled with despair.
