Bloody Kyoto
Chapter 23 Theft? The charges need to be substantiated.
While the boy was applying wood wax oil, Li Nanle strolled around the streets.
Her shop was in the alleys of West Street, not far from the West Gate. I instinctively wanted to see if there was a wanted poster for Wu Cuicui there.
When they got there, they found that not only was Wu Cuicui's wanted poster posted on the wall at the west gate, but there was also a portrait of himself when he was twelve years old.
She glanced at the scene discreetly and left. It was indeed the right thing to prepare her identity in advance, and she was also glad that she hadn't revealed her true face on the way to the capital.
When Yunxia went to the capital, she was already twelve years old, and Fu Yanji knew her appearance very well.
Now that two people have died, they would probably guess it was her. Even if they weren't 100% sure, they would never let go of any possibility.
She raised her hand to touch her face. The modern magic of face-changing makeup is truly amazing. As long as no one makes her remove her makeup on the spot, no one will discover her true appearance.
"Hey! What crime did the person in this wanted poster commit?"
Upon hearing this, Li Nanle paused, then walked to a nearby stall selling steamed rice cakes and pretended to buy something.
The garrison commander was immediately displeased upon hearing this tone, but when he turned around and saw the person who had asked the question, he immediately put on a fawning smile.
"Reporting to Young Master Lu, this woman and this runaway maid are in cahoots."
Lu Xue, the second son of the Lu family, a prominent family in the capital, is the legitimate second son of the head of the Lu family.
Calling him a young master is an underdog story; he's only thirteen years old and spends his time fighting cocks, walking dogs, and running around the streets.
Upon hearing the garrison commander's reply, his face hardened, and his voice rose involuntarily, "I'm asking you what this woman has done wrong."
The guard was startled and quickly bowed and scraped, "It was my fault for not understanding what the Second Young Master said, I deserve to die!"
"This woman and that runaway maid stole a large amount of money from the Fu family."
Lu Xue stroked his chin, looking at Li Nanle's portrait on the wall, and muttered, "It doesn't look like her. This woman doesn't look like the kind of person who would steal. You must have made a mistake."
The garrison commander smiled ingratiatingly, but he couldn't easily respond to that, since it wasn't him who wanted the woman.
Lu Xue glanced at the guard, snorted, turned and left with one hand behind his back. Although he was small, he took big strides.
She walks with a certain flair.
Li Nanle took out ten copper coins and asked the stall owner to wrap up ten palm-sized, thin steamed cakes for her to take away.
As she walked along the road, she ate steamed rice cake while thinking about what the garrison commander had said earlier.
The charge was actually theft?
If this isn't confirmed, wouldn't she have taken the blame for nothing?
When he returned to the shop in the afternoon, the boy was already in the final stages of finishing up. Seeing Li Nanle, he grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth, and said:
"Aunt Li, please check it. If there's anything that's not applied properly, please point it out and I'll redo it."
Li Nanle nodded and casually wandered around the various rooms.
"It's all very good. You did a good job." He said, taking out a tael of silver and handing it to him.
The boy took the silver with disbelief in his eyes; he had really earned an ounce of silver in a single day.
He shook his head again. It was true that he earned it, but it was also because Aunt Li was kind-hearted and didn't bully him just because he was young.
A surge of gratitude welled up within her. "Aunt Li, what are you planning to sell in this shop?"
"steamed stuffed bun."
juvenile:"……"
"Aunt Li, there's a coffin shop next door," he whispered a reminder.
Li Nanle understood what he meant and waved her hand dismissively, "I know, it's nothing!"
The boy looked anxious, but he didn't say anything more. He just thought that if Aunt Li's steamed buns couldn't be sold, he would help her take them elsewhere to sell.
"Alright, it's getting late, you should go home now!"
The boy bowed deeply to her, "Thank you, Aunt Li, on Friday."

In the middle of the night, Li Nanle changed her makeup and went out, arriving at the Fu family's courtyard wall with practiced ease.
She pretended to be a passerby and walked along the courtyard wall, trying to use her supernatural abilities to contact the plants inside, but she couldn't contact anything.
She scoffed inwardly; this meant clearing out all the plants, including the weeds.
She took out a mutated ivy seed from her spatial storage and flicked it into the yard.
She didn't immediately activate the seed, but continued walking until she was far away from the Fu family's residence, before quietly activating the seed.
The stimulated seeds sprouted quickly and covered an entire wall in an instant, but they didn't stop there; they continued to grow rapidly along the ground.
The guards in the mansion discovered the ivy as soon as it sprouted, but they were stunned on the spot because it was so strange.
By the time they realized what was happening and called for help to remove it, the ivy was already everywhere.
"Boss, what do we do?" one of the guards asked the other.
"We can't chop it all down. Go to the kitchen and get some oil. We'll heat it up with fire."
When the guard who went to fetch the oil arrived at the kitchen, he found that the entire kitchen was covered with ivy vines, so he had no choice but to turn back.
Before long, the entire Fu family was woken up, and chaos ensued.
Fu Cheng immediately organized people to move the Fu family to a safe place.
But his so-called safe place soon became unsafe.
Li Nanle continued to unleash his supernatural abilities, and the ivy kept growing.
Seeing the Fu family members panic and jump around was really enjoyable, but unfortunately her ability level was still too low; she could only make the ivy grow and couldn't do anything else.
Otherwise, we could have arrested them all.
But there's no rush. She has already mastered the method to enhance her superpowers, and she believes that soon she will be able to kill all those who harmed Yunxia without any scruples.
"Someone, go to the Princess's residence and inform Second Master Yun that an alien has appeared." Grand Tutor Fu was being carried away by a guard, and even in his desperate escape, he did not forget to give orders.
Everyone sees the ivy growing rapidly, but no one ever thinks that it can't hurt anyone at all.
"mother!"
Madam Fu, dressed in her undergarments, was being helped by two maids, who were also dressed in undergarments, as they ran out of the Fu residence. They tripped over something and all three of them fell down.
Fu Feng stepped forward and pulled Old Madam Fu onto his back, then hurriedly ran outside.
The two maids who had fallen had no time to get up before they were instantly covered by ivy. Thinking they were going to die, they couldn't help but shout for help.
The cries for help spurred the people running ahead to run even faster.
