Help! My pet supervillain has three personalities!
Chapter 290 Did He Come?
Inside the study, a man completely shrouded in black was waiting for Shen Zhiyun.
As soon as Shen Zhiyun entered the study, the man bowed and said, "Master."
Shen Zhiyun nodded slightly to the man in black and said softly:
"How's the investigation going?"
"Reporting to Master, the trail has gone cold."
“You said that the person you are looking for might have some strange abilities. So, after the recent theft at the Prime Minister’s residence, we have been closely monitoring the situation there. However, according to our spies, the valuables from the Prime Minister’s residence have not been recovered, and the trail has gone cold.”
Shen Zhiyun asked calmly, "Has there been any other activity at the Prime Minister's residence recently?"
"Yes, yesterday the Prime Minister sent his subordinate Han Cheng to kidnap the eldest son of the Duke's mansion, Murong Bai."
"Oh?"
"But I heard that Murong Bai attended court today."
The man in black bowed his head: "Yes, Master, someone saved him last night."
"Someone?"
"Yes, Master, he is a rather thin man with an ordinary appearance, but he is very skilled, especially in light-footed movements."
“Yesterday, that man fought with Young Master Sun Erning, and Young Master Sun was utterly defeated.”
Not only did they suffer a crushing defeat, they were completely outmaneuvered.
"Yes, is there anything else?"
"Yes, Master, those people who kidnapped Murong Bai yesterday were a bit strange."
Shen Zhiyun frowned: "What's strange about them?"
"Doesn't look like a living person."
"Not like a living person?"
"Yes, Master, those people have little vitality, their bodies are ice cold, and their eyes glow red, making them practically invulnerable to swords and spears."
There was one more thing he didn't say: those people sounded somewhat like the roars that came from the Wang residence in Egg Town in the middle of the night.
But he knew that the things inside were created by his master's friends, and his master had given an order that strangers were not allowed to approach the place, so they didn't know exactly what was inside.
"Okay, I understand. You can go now."
"By the way, investigate the family next door."
"Yes, master."
The man in black finished speaking and left.
Shen Zhiyun sat alone in the study, lost in thought.
In fact, after he established the Dark Pavilion, the first thing he did was to check the Prince's Mansion. However, it was desolate and no one lived there. But people often said that they could hear terrifying screams coming from the Prince's Mansion, so much so that it became a famous haunted house.
When he sent people to check, they found a figure dressed in white inside. However, they only caught a glimpse of the back of the figure before being knocked unconscious and thrown out.
Driven by curiosity, he ventured into the Prince's mansion himself. He never expected that the place he remembered as so luxurious, so large, and so... frightening would turn out like that. So much so that when he went in, he seemed to have forgotten most of what had happened before.
I can't recall that rotten thorn rooted deep within my heart, the one that causes such soul-wrenching pain.
He was grateful to the person who gave him a home.
So he kept trying to find them.
The Prince's Mansion was just the first stop.
He secretly followed the howling sound and found the hidden dungeon. Inside, the lights flickered, and there was indeed a figure in white clothes moving back and forth. Moreover, there were two corpses on the bed.
He wanted to go in and take a look, but as soon as he poked his eye, the figure inside disappeared.
He thought he was seeing things and reached out to rub his eyes, but his hand was grabbed as soon as he raised it.
"What are you doing here?"
