245-246

Chapter 245: You forced me to do this

Eldest Young Master Wu did not stop him.

Xiao Hanzheng let go of Shi Qingluo and followed the bailiffs around the courtyard.

When Eldest Young Master Wu saw that they did not go near the rockery, he heaved a sigh of relief.

At the same time, the pride in his eyes intensified.

Shi Qingluo began to speak. "Even if we can't find the murderer, we can't just let go of the matter of you poisoning my fourth uncle. While the magistrate is here, hurry up and hand over the antidote so that we can give you a lighter sentence."

Eldest Young Master Wu remained silent.

Is this woman done yet? Why is she so annoying? She keeps talking nonsense.

He said impatiently, "How many times have I said it? We didn't poison him, so of course, we don't have the antidote. I'm just doing my job. I'm not afraid even if sir continues to investigate."

Then, he asked Mo Qingling, "Sir, if it turns out that the Wu family is innocent and the Shi family is slandering us, will I be able to accuse them of framing us?"

Mo Qingling nodded. "Of course."

Shi Qingluo continued, "My fourth uncle was poisoned in your residence. How can you be innocent?"

Eldest Young Master Wu looked at her coldly. "It's also possible that he offended someone outside. It's even more possible that it's all your own doing."

Shi Qingluo rolled her eyes at him. "Why are we doing this? You..."

Then, she kept pestering Eldest Young Master Wu about this matter.

Eldest Young Master Wu was annoyed by her pestering, and he couldn't let Shi Qingling splash more dirty water on him in front of Mo Qingling, so he started arguing with her.

At the same time, he didn't pay attention to Xiao Hanzheng who was originally looking around the courtyard.

Now, he had already walked near the rockery and kept touching it with his hands.

He was still muttering to himself as if he was calculating something.

In his previous life, after he dropped out of school and left Nanxi county, he went to many places and got to know many people.

He had also learned a lot.

Because he had been in the army, not only did he know the art of war, but he had also studied the Qimen armor.

So when he came to the rockery, he found a lot of clues.

Then, he followed one of the mechanisms in the Qimen armor and put in his deductions.

Soon, he placed his hand on a rock and spun it a few times.

Then, he calculated the number of steps and walked forward.

He squatted on the ground and moved a small rock the size of a fist.

Finally, he walked to the other side and pressed his hand on the protruding part of a rock.

"Boom!" The rock suddenly moved.

Eldest Young Master Wu was very familiar with this sound.

He instinctively turned and looked over.

He saw that rock moving, before revealing an underground entrance.

His pupils shrank. How was this possible?
