Crossing the Passenger Sacrifice

"You go first. I won't kill you today." Li Huoyue weighed the matter and decided to check where the people who came today finally went.

Compared with those people who could "fly over eaves and walk on walls", Sang Fuqing was much easier to catch.

Moreover, if this group of people really were heading towards Li Wang’s Palace, it would also indirectly confirm how credible Sang Fuqing’s words were.

"Where are you going? I'll go with you!" Sang Fuqing replied.

Again.

Such a weird reaction.

Although the two had only met a few times, Sang Fuqing acted more familiar than expected.

Threats were useless, and he refused to reveal who was behind it.

Maybe there really is no one behind the scenes?

Li Huoyue immediately extracted the key points from his mind. Where did the first moment of Sang Fuqing's attitude change occur?

As Li Huoyue inhaled, his past memories were quickly browsed from the back to the front. Soon, the key frame was extracted when he exhaled.

It was the day when I went to Sang’s house to visit my eldest sister-in-law, and the two of them met!

Still thinking about chasing his second brother, Li Huoyue was a little emotionally unstable. Fortunately, he had practiced well in the past few days. Almost the next moment he closed his eyes and exhaled, Li Huoyue got information from his memory again.

It was the moment after the eye contact!

Before this, Sang Fuqing was still speaking arrogant words, but after this, he stood there in a daze for a while like a background board, and then his attitude changed.

He also asked her a question.

What did he ask?

[You have...]

【Have we met somewhere before?】

There was a change in his attitude at this time, but it was not as obvious as it is now. He even used an uncertain and inquiring tone, instead of giving a corresponding response after confirmation like today.

The sudden change in attitude made it seem that Sang Fuqing himself was not prepared, or he simply didn't know, otherwise he wouldn't have asked such a question.

So it became like this afterwards?

Li Huoyue recalled that there was someone "guiding" the wind direction outside the Sang Mansion at that time. It was because she was looking for that alien that she did not notice Sang Fuqing's abnormality. Afterwards, she asked the steward to check it out, but no results have been fed back until now.

Not only did the steward not give any feedback on this matter, he also did not give any feedback on the follow-up of Madam Sang. Although we now know why Madam Sang did not return to the Sang Mansion, he cannot not give any feedback until now!

has a problem!

There was something else wrong.

Mrs. Sang.

Between breaking off the engagement and saving the younger son, she obviously chose to save the younger son, but she did not come to Li's house to ask or remind him in the past few days. It seems that Mother Sang is not the kind of person who can keep her composure.

Since she didn't come, she must have had enough support and was not panicked.

Where does the support come from?

Within a few breaths, Li Huoyue went over the whole thing in his mind again and came up with several ideas.

After trying hard to control her emotions, she only asked Sang Fuqing one question: "Why did you change your mind about the Li Mansion?"

Very simple question.

But as long as Sang Fuqing can answer them, many questions will have answers. Even if there are no answers, there will be clear clues.

"Because..." Sang Fuqing seemed to be thinking, but also seemed to be hesitating.

Li Huoyue didn't have that much time to wait for him. After exchanging glances with the fourth brother, he turned around and was about to leave.

Sang Fuqing didn't expect Li Huoyue to leave when he was about to hear the answer, so he quickly said, "It's because there are more memories! A lot! Probably memories of our past lives!"

Li Huoyue didn't even look back. He picked up a bamboo hat and disappeared into the rainy night.

You're crazy. You haven't figured out your life yet, and you're talking about your past life?

Have you made any contribution? Why should you be given the opportunity to see your past life clearly?

Sang Fuqing was very worried and was about to follow, but was stopped by the fourth brother.

"Master Sang, would you like to chat?"

The fourth brother’s attitude was very firm. Sang Fuqing looked at Li Huoyue’s disappearing back and sighed.

He knew he couldn't beat him, and he also knew he couldn't catch up.

In his dreams, she always walked very fast, not even giving him any time to react. Many times when he came to his senses, all that was left for him was the empty seat beside her and her mouth that had just opened and then slowly closed.

Sang Fuqing withdrew his gaze. The rain seemed to be getting lighter. He weakly pulled the corner of his mouth towards the fourth brother.

Let her go anyway.

But it doesn’t matter, it seems everything has just begun, it should be in time, right?

The fourth child felt that Sang Fuqing's expression was really puzzling. He was glad that his sister had withdrawn in time. He didn't know what his mother was thinking by choosing an insane person for his sister to marry.

While complaining, he began his "inquiry" process.

Although it was difficult to travel in the rain, Li Huoyue's tracking speed was not affected too much. She also believed that Lao Si's "professional skills" would definitely help her get some answers from Sang Fuqing.

Now all she had to do was keep her eyes on the road in the rain, mount her chestnut horse, and keep on going.

After receiving the location information report from a trusted confidant who had been lurking all the way, he ran to the outside of the inner city almost without stopping.

She skillfully found a place to tie the horse, casually wiped the rain off her cheeks, and looked up towards the inner city.

The rain had just started to fall in the inner city, and it was much lighter than at Suyun Bridge, but there was a faint sign that it was coming to an end.

Due to the heavy rain, the inner city tonight is not as lively as usual.

The last reporting point was here, and the opponent once again escaped with the help of props.

Rainy days have the advantage of naturally covering up all traces, and all clues seem to be cut off here.

Li Huoyue thought for a moment.

The obvious clues ended here, but they kidnapped someone and ran towards the inner city?

The inner city is actually the place with the densest number of spies. Once you step in, it is difficult to leave no trace. It is not surprising that the other party can disappear as soon as they enter the inner city, even if they have used props.

Instead of choosing the outer city where there are fewer people, you are willing to use props to enter the inner city?

There are two possibilities.

One is that there is a reason why the kidnapped person must be sent to the inner city.

For example, their base is in the inner city, or there is something that must be done in the inner city.

Another possibility is -

They guessed that someone would be following them, and they had reasons to let the person follow them into the inner city.

If it's the first one, it's fine, but if it's the second one...

Li Huoyue looked at the road ahead. The moonlight tonight was covered by dark clouds. The ground was wet, reflecting only the lights from some shops that had not yet closed. It was not bright, and most of the area was pitch black and the road was not visible.
