Chapter 58
"Ahem..." In order to ease the atmosphere, Baili Changge coughed twice, and asked in a low voice, "My lord, are you alright?"

"Have you brought what you said?" Ye Hen looked at her clenched palms as if he had never heard of it.

It's really hard to guess what this master is thinking.

Baili Changge stuck out his tongue, and then turned to the main topic.

"Before we analyze the case, I want to ask you one thing." She looked very serious.

"I know about that." Ye Hen raised his head to look at him, the sad breath just now had disappeared without a trace.

"You...you know?" Baili Changge was a little startled, thinking that this person's insight was too powerful, she didn't speak yet.

"Yeah." Ye Hen nodded, and said: "Ten years ago, Tianyu got a bracelet, and the person who gave him the bracelet said that it was something that could help him avoid disasters and live longer."

"What else?" Baili Changge asked.

"There's more, I'm waiting for you to tell me." He breathed very quietly, and when he spoke, his eyelashes fluttered, casting two faint blue shadows on his fair face, thinking of his desolate silence when he stood on the stone steps facing the water just now. Looking back, her heart trembled slightly.

"His Highness Changsun told me that the wandering monk said that this string of bracelets is related to the lives of eight people. Every time one dies, the corresponding square will turn red by itself. When all the squares turn red, it is likely to endanger Daliang. .”

As expected, Baili Changge didn't see his shocked or even surprised expression, he just drank tea lightly, looking thoughtful.

After a long time, he put down the teacup, stretched out his hand and said quietly, "Show me the bracelet."

She clenched the bracelet tightly again, and only when her nails hurt her palms did she slowly loosen it, and handed the bracelet to him.

Seeing the two extremely obvious blood-colored squares on the bracelet, Ye Hen squinted his eyes, "So two people have died?"

"Probably so." Baili Changge nodded.

Ye Hen's gaze paused again on the black spot on the second discolored square, "Then, did this square turn red after Baili Shaoqing's death?"

"Yes."

"But you weren't sure whether Shaoqing was one of these eight people before. You just wanted to know who the real culprit was, until you saw this crumpled paper ball in Shaoqing's room just now?"

"Yes." Baili Changge said: "I believe you have noticed that the ink dots on the paper ball are exactly the same as the black dots on the cube."

"It is indeed somewhat similar." Ye Hen spread out the piece of paper, compared it with the cube, and then asked her, "Can you tell what this is?"

"I vaguely guessed a little bit, but I'm not sure." Baili Changge said, suddenly thought of something, squinted at Ye Hen, "Don't you think it's strange?"

"What's so strange? Why did this thing turn red after Shaoqing's death?" Ye Hen glanced at her, "You also think it's a ghost?"

"Of course not." She immediately denied, "But I can't figure out what Shaoqing has to do with this prophecy, who these eight people refer to, what is the connection between them, and who is the first person who died? ?”

"Do you want to thoroughly investigate this case?" Ye Hen handed over the teacup.

"At least for now, I want to find out the cause of Shaoqing's death. I went to see the corpse before, and he didn't suffer from food poisoning, and the coroner's booklet also stated that there was no poison in the supper that the third lady made for Shaoqing last night. Then How did the poison get into his body?" Baili Changge frowned thinking about the previous autopsy.
