Help! My pet supervillain has three personalities!
Chapter 261 My heart feels warm
"Man-made? Bite marks... claw marks..."
This was the first time in Murong Zhengqi's life that he had encountered something so incomprehensible.
Moreover, he subtly observed Tang Yue again. Although her head was lowered, he felt that she had many secrets, and that she was a beast, a beast that could kill at will. Even someone as shrewd and experienced as him, if not knowledgeable, was at least more knowledgeable than her.
He found the killer's methods incomprehensible, so how come she seemed to be curious, even knowledgeable about him?
Have you ever seen a wild animal like this before?
"Huh?" Tang Yue looked up in confusion. Had she given herself away somewhere? Why would the Duke ask her such a question?
Seeing that look in his eyes, Murong Zhengqi thought he had misjudged the situation, and Tang Yue thus luckily escaped a round of questioning.
"It's alright, Young Master Tang. Thank you so much for bringing Xiao Lang back safely. However, you can't rest yet. I still need to trouble you to take us to the scene to take a look. I need to investigate carefully to see if there are any clues about Bai'er's abduction. Is that alright?"
Emma, how could she possibly deserve such a high-ranking official's use of the word "trouble," especially since this was suspected to be her grandfather whom she had never met before.
"No, no, Your Excellency, you flatter me. I can take you to see it now, but we'd better bring more experts with us. I'm afraid another group of people might come to ambush us."
Although she could protect the old man, considering Lin Hao's terrifying combat power, she decided against being overconfident.
"Yes, I know that. Lao Liu, go find Mu Er now and tell him to bring his guards to the main hall immediately."
"Yes, sir."
After instructing the steward, Murong Zhengqi turned his gaze to the royal physician: "Physician, is Master Mu awake now?"
The physician shook his head.
“Master, Mu Da is seriously injured, but I did not find any scratches or bite marks on his body. Most of his injuries are sword wounds.”
Tang Yue was a little embarrassed: ...She didn't say that the murderer was only a wild animal.
Since returning, Murong Minglang, who had been crying silently, has recovered considerably. Hearing what the physician said, fearing that Tang Yue would be misunderstood, he spoke up for Tang Yue with a heavy nasal voice: "Grandpa, what Tang Yuan said is true. There are really many bite marks on the bodies of those dead guards, some of which even had entire chunks of flesh bitten off."
"I still have... I still have a lot of bits of flesh that were bitten off on me."
Murong Zhengqi patted the child's head. "Yes, Grandpa knows. Grandpa is going to the crime scene later. Does Xiao Lang want to go too?"
Murong Minglang thought for a moment. He had only been focused on searching through the corpses and hadn't actually found any clues. So, even though the place was disgusting, he planned to go back again.
"Grandpa, I want to go."
"Aren't you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid, Grandpa. I'm going to find the murderer and rescue Daddy."
Upon hearing these words, Murong Zhengqi smiled with relief, and his worries about his son lessened somewhat.
"Xiao Lang has really grown up. Grandpa will take you there in a bit. Wait here for a moment while Grandpa makes some arrangements."
"Okay, Grandpa."
Murong Minglang obediently got out of Murong Zhengqi's arms, walked to Tang Yue's side, and pulled her to sit on the stool. Tang Yue's heart was warmed by Murong Minglang's presence.
