Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

"Since he is a relative, how can you be so rude?" A corner of the carriage curtain was lifted by a white hand, as if the person inside was observing the situation outside through the gap in the curtain.

"Guan Cen." After a moment, the curtain was gently lowered. The person inside called a name, and a servant following the right side of the carriage responded and then entered the carriage.

After a few breaths, the servant lifted the curtain and came out, holding a brand new plain robe in his hand, and slowly walked to Lin Xi.

"My cousin, the concierge was rude and soiled your clothes. These are the new clothes that my husband made for my second wife. She hasn't worn them yet. I'll consider this as an apology to you. Please don't despise it, my cousin."

"No need to do this..." Lin Xi stared at the brand new robe in front of her, and subconsciously looked at her clothes that were covered in dust when she was pushed down just now, and spoke in a whisper.

"Please accept it." Seeing Lin Xi refuse, the servant took a step forward, handed the robe forward to Lin Xi without giving her a chance to refuse, and continued.

"My husband also said that the master of the family has been in the palace to discuss matters with the emperor these days, and he can only return home at midnight. I'm afraid he has no time to see you. If you really have something important to say, you can write a letter and hand it to the gatehouse tomorrow. My husband will present it to the master of the family for you."

At the end of the recollection, Lin Xi held in her hands the robe that was as soft as the clouds in the sky and the fifty taels of silver hidden in the robe, stared at the vermilion lacquered door that was slowly closing, and then turned around and blended into the deepening dusk.

Then, a few months later, the current emperor suddenly arranged for the Minister of Justice to investigate the old case, and the truth of Lin's mother's case was finally revealed to the world.

His thoughts returned. Perhaps it was because the amount of information this time was a bit too much. Lin Xi pressed his eyebrows tiredly. He felt a little dizzy and wanted to fall asleep.

However, just when her consciousness was about to be swallowed by the darkness, she suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze as sharp as a torch, and pierced directly at the masked man in black holding a short blade who had appeared in the carriage at some point in time.

The man in black, relying on the power of the aphrodisiac incense, was about to sneak up on her and cut the throat of the person in front of him who seemed unaware of the danger. Unexpectedly, she suddenly opened her eyes and glared at him with a gaze as cold as a demon from hell, which made the man in black shiver.

However, the cold war only lasted for a moment. The next moment, the man in black frowned, turned his wrist, made a claw with one hand, and grabbed Lin Xi's shoulder. With the other hand, he wielded a dagger that was shining with cold light and slashed towards her throat without any hesitation.

Lin Xi's eyes flashed with cold light, and her aura surged. She kicked her feet, slapped the cushion under her with one hand, and her whole body was like an arrow shot from a bow, heading straight towards the man in black wielding a dagger.

When the man in black saw that Lin Xi was advancing instead of retreating, a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face hidden under the veil. Her dagger was tempered with a deadly poison. As long as she could cut even a little bit of the skin of the person in front of her, even the Golden Immortal would be unable to save him.

In such a situation, not only did she not hide, she even dared to rush straight forward. It turned out that the legendary cruel and cunning Criminal Justice Lin Sikou was just a reckless man.

However, before the sneer on her face could fully unfold, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest, and then her whole body was like a kite with a broken string, and was suddenly kicked away by a huge force and hit the inner wall of the car hard.

Puff! The man in black suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling that his heart, liver, spleen and lungs were all shattered by the kick, and he seemed to have lost consciousness due to the pain.

But despite such serious injuries, her killer qualities still enabled her to hold on to the car wall and struggle to get up, but Lin Xi was obviously unwilling to give her a second chance.

She bent down and picked up the dagger that the man in black had dropped on the ground, and then she raised the knife and neatly cut the throat of the man in black who was lying on the ground and struggling to death.

Blood splattered, and the man in black widened his eyes with unwillingness. It was obvious that he had not yet reacted to how he suddenly lost his life. But Lin Xi didn't even look at her. He kicked the still warm corpse out of the carriage and got off the carriage.

Outside the carriage, the two groups were fighting in the rain. There were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground. The blood mixed with the rain gave off a disgusting, damp and fishy smell.

Lin Xi wiped the blood that had just splashed on his face, drew out the long sword at his waist with an expressionless face, and joined the battle.

The people behind the scenes who were sent to assassinate Lin Xi this time had obviously put in a lot of effort. These men in black all had ghostly figures, exquisite swordsmanship, and they would throw out one or two hidden weapons from time to time, making it much more difficult to deal with than before.

Huaiyun was fighting with an assassin and did not notice that a short man in black not far behind her had dealt with a guard and then threw a gleaming dart at her.

Just as the dart was about to penetrate her back, a long knife suddenly extended from the side. The dart hit the long knife, making a sharp sound of metal collision, and then it lost its force and fell to the ground.

Huaiyun felt a chill on her back and quickly dealt with the black-clothed man in front of her. Then she turned around and saw Lin Xi, who had appeared behind her at some point, wielding a knife and chopped off the neck of the black-clothed man who wanted to attack her. Then she quickly dealt with the black-clothed men in front of the guards. She couldn't help but smile, "Sir!"

"Don't be distracted when killing people." Lin Xi glanced at her coldly, then turned around and continued to kill.

Half a minute later, Huaiyun put away the bloodstained long sword and walked to Lin Xi who was standing in the middle of a dozen corpses. "Sir, I have counted them. There are eighteen people in total. No one is alive. There is no mark on their swords, clothes or bodies that can indicate their identities."

"Yeah." Lin Xi closed her eyes, endured the waves of drowsiness coming from her head, calmed her disordered breathing, and nodded.

Since the other party chose to assassinate her on a rainy night when no one was around, he would certainly not be stupid enough to leave any evidence behind. However, she had just found out who was behind the You Pushe's attack, and then she experienced this. She could guess who did it with just her toes.

"So should we go back to the Criminal Justice Department or to..." Huaiyun did not notice Lin Xi's abnormality at the first time. Seeing that Lin Xi did not move for a long time, he spoke with some confusion. But before he finished speaking, he saw Lin Xi, who seemed to be possessed by the god of death just now, suddenly shook his body.

"Sir!" Huaiyun was startled and quickly reached out to support Lin Xi. Only then did he suddenly realize that she was weak all over. The sleeve of her right arm was cut and blood was gushing out.

"I will take you back home right away!" Realizing that something was wrong with Lin Xi, Huaiyun quickly picked her up and was about to get on the horse.

"Go to Changsun Mansion." At the last moment when they fell into darkness, Lin Xi grabbed her clothes and said in a low voice, "Don't let anyone know."

"This..." Huaiyun was startled, and suddenly seemed to think of something, his eyes flashed, and he nodded quickly, "I understand!"
