Chapter 442: That Person Was Gone

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The woman’s mind was sent into a complete blank by that slap.

This man didn’t know how to be gentle with the fairer sex at all!

The woman took a deep breath and raised her eyes. They were instantly met by Su Ying’s eyes which exuded pure iciness.

“This is just a warning. If you dare to play tricks again, I’ll twist your head off!” The woman’s entire body went cold. She had no doubt that Su Ying would carry out her threat. Su Ying would really take her life!

The woman held her brush in a dilemma. She thought furiously about how she could send a distress signal through this message to the person receiving it!

Su Ying could tell what she was scheming and said faintly, “I think it s meaningless to take your life like this. It’s better to just hand you and the key over to the people of the Jin State.”

The woman got a shock. “I’ll write it!”

The woman gritted her teeth and wrote the letter according to Su Ying’s request. She then summoned a carrier pigeon.

Although these carrier pigeons weren’t as fast as eagles, they were not so conspicuous and wouldn’t arouse suspicion easily.

As soon as the carrier pigeon was sent out, there was a commotion outside the

inn.

Su Ying came to the door and peeked through the crack. A group of soldiers had already poured into the inn’s lobby.

The woman looked nervous when she realized the Jin State’s soldiers were

here.

Su Ying turned to look at her. “Do they know what you look like?”

The woman pursed her lips and nodded. If her appearance hadn’t been exposed, she wouldn’t have fled in such a panic. She had wanted to put on a disguise, but she had been chased by the soldiers of the Jin State all the way.

She hadn’t slept for several days and nights, and she didn’t have many things left on her. There was no way for her to change her appearance in a short time.

Su Ying suddenly walked to the back of the woman. Before the woman knew what was happening, she blacked out.

After Su Ying confirmed that the woman wouldn’t wake up anytime soon, she threw her into her interspatial store.

Just as she came out of the interspatial store, Su Ying heard brusque knocking on the door.

“Open the door. Open the door. Soldiers are conducting a search.

Su Ying stepped forward and opened the door.

A few soldiers swarmed into the room without a word and started to search everywhere roughly.

However, the guest room was only so big, and the space under the bed was empty. The situation inside was obvious at a glance.

The soldier took out a portrait and held it in front of Su Ying. “Have you seen this woman before?”

The woman in the portrait looked exactly like that spy.

Su Ying shook her head slowly. “I have never seen her.”

After the soldiers confirmed that there was nothing in the room, they prepared to leave.

Su Ying stopped one soldier at that moment. “May I know how long the border pass will be closed?”

The soldier did not even turn his head. “Just wait.”

Su Ying took out the key and looked at it. Then, she walked to the lobby of the inn.

The soldiers had already left after finding nothing in the inn.

“Waiter, is there a place to store items in this city? I feel that some things are too cumbersome to carry on the road, so I want to find a safe place to store them, but I don’t know of any suitable place to put them for the time being.” As Su Ying spoke, she took out a dozen copper coins and placed them on the table.

The waiter’s eyes lit up when he saw the copper coins.

-Yes, we have a place to store things here. It’s called the storage pavilion. It’s not far ahead and is only one street away from us. That place is safe. You can store your belongings there, Young Master.

Su Ying thanked him and followed the direction the waiter pointed out to her to head for the storage pavilion.

At first glance, this storage pavilion looked like a teahouse. It appeared very ordinary, but after walking in, she realized that there were layers of security mechanisms inside. Every door was built with natural marble, and the key to each door was held by a specific person. Moreover, it was said that each key could only be used three times a day to open the door. If the door was opened more than three times, the door would lock up automatically. Only when the keys of all the doors were inserted at the same time could it be opened again.

The security here was so tight for the express purpose of preventing the storage owner’s things from being lost.

Su Ying’s luck wasn’t bad. As the authorities were trying to catch a spy, no one had come to the storage building to retrieve anything today. After the other party asked Su Ying for the key, she was brought to the area behind the third door.

The attendant pointed to the last locker and told Su Ying that this was the locker that matched her key. After saying that, he excused himself to go behind the door, giving Su Ying about 7 minutes to retrieve the item she wanted.

Su Ying opened the locker door. Sure enough, there was a scroll inside. She took out the scroll and put it away before leaving the storage pavilion.

The border city’s soldiers were still searching for the spy on the streets. Su Ying went to a cooked food shop to buy some braised meat and then bought some pancakes as well before returning to the inn.

She placed the food on the table. Then she took out the sheepskin scroll from her clothes and unrolled it.

On the scroll was a complete military defense formation map. She did not expect that woman to be able to steal it successfully.

Su Ying carefully examined it before storing the military defense formation map in her interspatial store. She then brought the woman out of her interspatial store.

When the woman woke up, she saw Su Ying sitting on a chair eating. She sat up from the bed and looked at the sky outside the window. Her eyes filled with confusion. She didn’t know how long she had been unconscious or what this person had done to her.

“Come and eat something. Don’t starve to death,” Su Ying said after giving her a glance.

The woman got up and walked over to the table. She took a pancake from the table and sat down on a chair.

“When will there be news from the Chu State?

“Three days.”

“Mm-hmm.”

The woman took a bite of the pancake. She didn’t think that Su Ying would poison her food. It was so easy for Su Ying to take her life, so there was no need to go through the extra trouble of poisoning her.

However, she was too curious about Su Ying’s identity. If the other party was an enemy, it was definitely not a good thing for her.

The sky had already darkened. After eating, Su Ying asked the waiter to bring a bamboo couch over.

Su Ying pointed at the bamboo couch. “You can sleep there.”

The woman thought it was unusual that Su Ying didn’t tie her up and make her sleep on the floor.

After a simple wash-up, Su Ying yawned and lay down on the bed.

The woman looked at the bed curtain that had been lowered with a very puzzled expression. Could it be that Su Ying was so unworried about her that the former could just sleep in the same room as her without tying her up?

The woman’s gaze was fixed in Su Ying’s direction as she slowly walked over to the bamboo couch and lay down.

However, it was impossible for her to fall asleep. Su Ying had taken her key. She had to find a way to get it back!

As she mulled over this, the woman slowly closed her eyes and waited for an opportunity.

Dong! Dong! Dong! The night watchman’s gong went off at midnight. The woman opened her eyes abruptly.

The surroundings were so quiet that the only sound left seemed to be her own heartbeat.

The woman carefully sat up from the bamboo couch and listened carefully to the movements on the bed. After making sure that the person on the bed did not have any reaction, she got up and quietly approached the bed.

She pulled out the hairpin on her head and held her breath as she walked to the bed. Suddenly, she lifted the bed curtain and stabbed the hairpin into the bed.

However, what she did not expect was that there was no one on the bed! Zhou Qing lifted the blanket. It felt cold, and there was no sign of anyone sleeping there.

She stood rooted to the same spot in shock. She hadn’t slept the entire time and was constantly on guard.. She hadn’t seen Su Ying leave, yet Su Ying had disappeared!
