Chapter 375 Inspection Passed
Because there were so few clues, Yan Xun couldn't explain why only Gao Wen had seen those scenes.
"Where do we go next?" Gao Wen asked.
"Climb over the wall?"
“Go behind the ancestral hall and find that mysterious person,” Yan Xun said.
Gao Wen was somewhat displeased, "Lou Yanchuan is there too..."
"It'll be good to see if he's slacking off," Yan Xun said casually.
As he spoke, he walked toward the place where the mysterious man lived. He remembered that the mysterious man had said that everyone who wanted to leave the Gao family had tried to escape by climbing over the wall, but in the end, they were found dead under the bed in their own room.
Gao Wen's last escape had clearly alerted the old butler, but the result was only amnesia.
Either the person who escaped earlier discovered some big secret and was silenced, or there's more to the story.
You probably can't get this information from Gao Ruiyun. If you want to know these hidden clues about the Gao family, you can only go to the scarred man.
……
Gao Wen had never met the mysterious person Yan Xun mentioned. When he followed Yan Xun to the dilapidated courtyard where the man lived, he immediately saw a man lying on a square table, looking like a black bear.
The other person was fast asleep on the table, and only opened his eyes when Yan Xun walked to his side.
Upon seeing Yan Xun, he first frowned impatiently, then noticed Gao Wen following behind Yan Xun. "You haven't given up yet?"
He said to Gao Wen.
"Huh?" Gawain pointed at himself. "You mean me?"
"Otherwise, what am I supposed to do talking to a ghost?" The man was anything but polite, scratching his messy hair in frustration. "You still dream of climbing over the wall to get out?"
"You're welcome to give it a try."
He gestured for Yan Xun and Gao Wen to look at the high wall not far away, "You were lucky last time, do you expect it to be the same this time?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Xun understood that Gao Wen and Black Bear must have met, and it seemed they had even spoken.
He gestured to Gao Wen with his eyes, and Gao Wen shook his head in confusion, seemingly unaware of the situation.
"That's strange," Yan Xun thought. "Besides us, did anyone else come looking for you today?"
"Who would come to this lousy place?"
"Lou Yanchuan didn't come?" Gao Wen had a look on his face that said, "I knew this guy was unreliable."
"Lou Yanchuan...?" Black Bear seemed to be trying to recall who this person was, and finally he looked at Yan Xun and Gao Wen, "Why is he here?"
"Isn't he the darling of Gao Ruiyun?" the black bear man sneered. "Why would he come to my place?"
“You’re completely wrong,” Gao Wen suddenly said.
Black Bear: "?"
Yan Xun: "?"
“The one who’s favored now is the Seventh Concubine,” Gao Wen said, gesturing for Black Bear to look at Yan Xun.
The black bear spirit looked at Gao Wen, then at Yan Xun, and pointed to his own head, "Is this kid out of his mind?"
Can't you tell he's mocking me? Who's arguing with him about who's most favored by Master Gao?
"No wonder he's always thinking about climbing over the wall to escape," the black bear muttered to himself.
Yan Xun thought for a moment, "He suffered some kind of shock."
“You should know…” he looked at the black bear, “Everyone has heard of it.”
"The fifth concubine ran away in the middle of the night, but was discovered by the maids and reported to the steward. Everyone was thinking of going to look for her, but the next morning, the fifth concubine was found unconscious at the door of her room, and claimed to have amnesia."
"Fortunately, Master Gao did not pursue the matter." Yan Xun looked at the black bear and said slowly, "Everyone thought that Fifth Concubine was afraid of being punished by Master Gao, so she lied about having amnesia."
"But you said that no one in the Gao family can leave without Master Gao's permission." Yan Xun asked Black Bear, "Do you think Fifth Concubine is faking amnesia, or did she see something she shouldn't have seen, and that's why she lost that memory?"
The bear-like man calmly stared at Yan Xun through his thick bangs. "How should I know?"
"You're not leaving the Gao family because you have no other choice?"
The black bear man snorted coldly, "You know perfectly well what I'm asking."
He lay back down on the table. "If you're going to ask me such trivial things, I don't have time to bother with you."
Yan Xun sensed a hidden meaning in the other person's words, "What is interesting to you?"
"Who knows?" The bear-like man lay on the table, seemingly unconcerned. "Maybe one day the Gao family will be gone, and that would be interesting to me."
"Can we go into your yard and take a look?" Yan Xun asked.
The bear-man waved his hand and said, "Whatever."
It seems that players can freely enter the courtyard of this mysterious person from the Gao family.
Yan Xun gestured for Gao Wen to go inside with him.
The mysterious man's courtyard was basically the same as the other courtyards of the Gao family, except that it was somewhat dilapidated due to lack of cleaning and maintenance... Gao Wen took a few more glances at this courtyard when he first came here.
"Let's split up and take a look," Yan Xun said.
"We told the maid not to follow us. Gao Ruiyun should find out about this soon."
According to Li Wu, this mysterious person was somewhat special in the Gao family, and Master Gao probably didn't want to see his "concubines" dealing with this mysterious person.
Gao Wen made an OK sign and immediately split up with Yan Xun to carry out their respective tasks.
Yan Xun looked around and then walked towards a room that looked like a bedroom.
……
The structure of this house is almost identical to that of Master Gao's.
But unlike the elegant room of Master Gao, everything in this room is... cheap?
Yan Xun couldn't quite put her finger on how she felt. If she had to describe it, it would be that the things in Gao Ruiyun's room were like century-old artifacts, while the things in this room looked like props she had just bought from 1688.com.
Yan Xun casually picked up a teacup from the table and noticed the paper label on the bottom of it—
[Inspection passed]
Manufacturer: xxx Co., Ltd.
Yan Xun: "...?"
No? Is that right?
Why would there be a teacup in this background that looks like it was bought from a wholesale market?
