"Miss, have some first." Du Juan took out a piece of cake from her backpack and handed it to Yang Ruxin, "Iâll go get some hot water."
"You all keep yours." Yang Ruxin shook her head, then reached into her backpack and took out ten steaming buns and a roasted chicken, "Eat, youâll need strength to deal with those people." She paused, "Donât touch anything in this house."
Du Juan and Du Yunpeng froze for a moment. They hadnât seen Miss prepare buns and roast chicken, had they? Even if she prepared them, they couldnât be this warm. But they quickly returned to normal; Miss was no ordinary person, so itâs not surprising whatever happens.
Then the two of them put away the dry food from their bags and started eating the buns.
As they were eating, suddenly outside a flash of lightning struck, followed by a rolling thunder, and then came the pouring rain.
"This rain is heavy, but it wonât last long." Du Juan said as she looked outside.
"You can read the weather?" Du Yunpeng asked.
"Traveling everywhere with my dad to avoid wandering, naturally I learned many things..."
A trace of pity flashed in Du Yunpengâs eyes, but he quickly hid it.
Yang Ruxin took a bite of chicken wing and glanced at the two, they do make quite a couple, but sheâs not planning to play matchmaker; let them develop on their own.
Once the three had filled their bellies, Yang Ruxin wiped her hands and got up, "Thatâs about enough." Then looked at the two, "Weâre performing, right? At least we should do it justice, with the human flesh theyâve prepared for us." She said, pulling out a small porcelain bottle, pouring out some red liquid and dropping it on each of their faces, and suddenly the appearance of bleeding from the seven orifices appeared.
At the moment, in the main room, a woman wrapped in a black cloak was sitting on a chair, beside her was the man with the lame leg, but now that man stood straight, without any indication of a lame leg.
"This time it must be foolproof." The womanâs coquettish eyes now shone with icy light.
"Rest assured, Saintess, as long as they taste a bit of those dishes, even the Gods wonât be able to save them." The man pretending to be lame sneered.
"Rest assured?" Michiko frowned, "How did my sister die, have you forgotten? That woman is cunning and deceitful, we canât afford even a little carelessness, or it will all be for nothing."
"Iâll go take a look." The little girl from before flashed a smile with her big eyes.
Michiko nodded slightly; for the sake of that woman, they had truly suffered heavy losses, and this time she had come to avenge her sister.
The little girl put on a raincoat and went out with a jug of water.
But soon she came back, "Saintess, itâs done."
Michiko immediately stood up and strode outside.
In the chamber room, the three seemed not to have time to struggle before the poison took effect; one lay on the table, one reclined on the ground, and one...
"Werenât there three people?" Michikoâs face suddenly darkened, "Whereâs that one? Whereâs Yang Ruxin?"
"Miss, are you looking for me?" Yang Ruxin suddenly appeared before Michiko.
Michiko was startled and raised a hand to strike.
But the person in front of her vanished in an instant.
Michiko was suddenly shocked.
The people behind her also widened their eyes.
More startling was that the two people originally lying down bleeding from the seven orifices had also disappeared.
