Chapter 1162 - 1164 The Pattern of a Flame_1

"Daddy is so awesome!" With no one around, Yangyang climbed behind the desk to Ye Zi’an’s lap, "Dad, I’m coming too!"

Seeing stars in his eyes, Ye Zi’an felt that it was a look of admiration, and he was instantly comforted.

"I want to come too!" Lele said in a hurry.

"Why do you guys want to come?" Ye Zi’an casually asked.

Sure enough, Yangyang responded, "It’s fun!"

Lele, however, said, "To learn!"

Yang Chuxia covered her face, thinking these little brats, what can you learn at your tiny age? Are you going to learn how your dad solves cases?

But Ye Zi’an was pleased, feeling that his son was ambitious from a young age, so without principle, he agreed. Afterward, people in the yamen often saw two little heads poking out from behind the curtain following the Lord County Magistrate, sometimes even making funny faces at others, causing both laughter and tears.

"Let’s go, Daddy is happy today, I’ll take you out to eat."

"Oh..." Upon hearing this, Yangyang called out. In fact, he didn’t even know what "going out to eat" meant, just reacted subconsciously.

The family set out, with Yang Chuxia holding Lele, and Ye Zi’an carrying Yangyang, coming face to face with Ye Yi and the others on the street.

Ye Yi chuckled, "Can you take us with you, young master?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Er and the others nodded repeatedly. It would be foolish not to take advantage of good food. Speaking of eating, they were pitiable indeed; ever since they arrived in Mianyang, they had worked themselves to exhaustion and still hadn’t had good food or drink.

Was Ye Zi’an unaware of the little schemes in their hearts?

"Fine, the young master is in a good mood today, I’ll take you all with me!"

Ye Yi and his companions immediately cheered.

As they walked, Yang Chuxia suddenly stopped and sharply turned around to look. Ye Er did the same.

"What’s wrong?"

"I feel like someone is watching us," Yang Chuxia didn’t hide this concern. Her intuition was not wrong; that sensation of someone staring fixedly, like a venomous snake, was very uncomfortable.

Hearing this, Ye Er nodded, "I feel it too."

Yang Chuxia looked around, then said to Ye Er, "You and Ye Yi, one in front and one behind, the room with the hanging lantern."

Ye Er was momentarily stunned, but then he and Ye Yi quickly pursued.

Meanwhile, the person inside the room was panicked and trying to escape, unable to believe that these people were so alert.

"Mommy!" Seeing his mother looking stern, Little Lele called out.

"It’s okay, sweetheart," she soothed her son and said, "Let’s go to the restaurant and wait; they will come by themselves in a while."

"Alright."

Ye Yi and Ye Er didn’t make them wait too long. Soon after they reached the restaurant, they returned.

"Did you catch him?"

"He’s dead!" Ye Yi said with annoyance. He had chased the man into an empty house, but before Ye Er could catch him, the man committed suicide by poison.

"Was there anything special on his body?" Ye Yi and Ye Er exchanged glances, thinking how perceptive Madam was; knowing which room the person was in was one thing, but also considering that there might be something on the person was quite something.

So Ye Er took out a token from his chest and handed it to Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an.

"What’s this? A token?" Yang Chuxia saw it was a small metal tag, with a flame pattern on the front and the number ’one’ engraved on the back.

"Have any of you seen this before?" Yang Chuxia asked again.

Everyone around shook their heads in unison.

"Well, let’s eat first, we’ll talk about this after we return to the residence."

For some reason, Yang Chuxia always felt she had seen this object somewhere before, but she couldn’t recall where at that moment.
