Chapter 1311

~3 min read 511 words

He walked quickly into the kitchen and looked at the wooden bucket where he had just dumped the food.

The wooden bucket lay on the ground.

A large puddle of water and the food soaked in it had flowed out from the bucket.

Shui Linglong moved back a few steps cautiously, took out a silver needle, and gently pricked the food.

When she picked up the silver needle, it had already turned black.

Throwing the silver needle on the ground, Shui Linglong turned to find Chen Ang.

Chen Ang was sunbathing in the courtyard, holding a book in his hand, reading it with great interest.

Shui Linglong suddenly rushed in front of him, snatched the book away, and threw it far away.

With a 'pop'.

The book landed on the roof beam.

Chen Ang stared at her with a suspicious look on his face.

"What are you doing?"

"Someone wants to harm us." Shui Linglong grabbed Chen Ang's hand and walked toward the kitchen.

Arriving at the kitchen entrance, Shui Linglong's expression froze; the dead cat on the ground was gone.

Her gaze drifted toward the kitchen; the wooden bucket inside had disappeared, and the puddle of stuff on the ground was also gone.

She stared carefully at the floor, seemingly searching for something.

The silver needle she had thrown just now was also gone.

"Why did you bring me here?"

Chen Ang shook off Shui Linglong's hand.

Shui Linglong opened her mouth, unable to say a word.

What was going on?

Why had everything from just a moment ago disappeared?

Who did this?

Why was the speed so fast?

Just as she was silent, Chen Ang had already turned around and started walking back.

Shui Linglong caught up with Chen Ang's pace and said in a lowered voice, "Someone put poison in our food."

"A cat was poisoned to death just now, and I wanted to bring you over to take a look, but all the evidence has disappeared."

"Are you not playing a trick on me?"

Chen Ang stopped and stared at her seriously.

Shui Linglong shook her head vigorously, almost swearing to the heavens.

Chen Ang chose to believe Shui Linglong.

Because he saw the word 'seriousness' in Shui Linglong's eyes.

Shui Linglong often horsed around with him, and sometimes she would cause some excessive trouble.

"It must have been the people from the City Lord's Mansion." Shui Linglong immediately locked onto the target.

"Why not the White Tiger clan?" As Chen Ang asked, he leaped onto the roof, picked up the book Shui Linglong had thrown onto the beam earlier, and scanned his surroundings.

From a high vantage point, he could see things others could not.

Not far away, a thin figure was quietly walking into the distance, holding a wooden bucket in his hand.

It seemed that what Shui Linglong said was all true.

Chen Ang's figure flickered as he chased after that person.

Shui Linglong followed closely behind.

Before long, the two of them caught up to the small figure and followed silently behind him.
