Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 263

Chapter 263 The Water Ghost Is the Mole
“Is that Captain Feng?” Bai Junzhuo pointed at the tied-up man.

Yin Mu listened to her and instructed the guard behind him, “Go over and wake him up.”

The bodyguard accepted the order and went over to untie Feng Speed and woke him up.

“Your Majesty,” Yin Mu said as he walked down the aisle with the help of the guards.

Yin Mu nodded and asked, “Why are you tied up here?”

Feng Su Ji frowned. He seemed to be very confused. He thought for a while and said, “I don’t know. I felt a little dizzy after eating just now. Then I went back to my room to sleep. I woke up and found that all of you were there …”

Yin Xun also said, “Royal Brother, it seems that I felt unusually sleepy after I finished my meal.”

“I also seem to feel something …” Yin Mu said as he turned around and instructed the guards, “Go wake everyone up and call them all to the deck.”

The guard accepted the order and everyone waited on the deck.

Bai Junzhuo pulled Yin Xun to the back and asked him, “Zisu, did you just say that you felt very sleepy after eating, and that you were unusually sleepy?”

Yin Xun nodded, “Looks like I’m not the only one. Imperial Brother and Captain Feng are both.”

Bai Junzhuo suddenly remembered the bowl of food that she hadn’t eaten. Originally, she thought that this was someone who wanted to deal with her and deliberately placed it in her food. From the looks of it, that person should have been placed in everyone’s meals.

But who drugged them? Why did you drug them?

“Do you know what we saw just now? It’s that black thing?” Yin Xun asked her.

Bai Junzhuo shook his head and said, “I don’t know what it is either. I only came out to take a look when I heard something falling into the water. I saw that black monster, carrying Captain Feng as if it wanted to throw him into the river. I called out and they put Captain Feng down to deal with me.”

“Are you hurt?”

Bai Junzhuo shook his head. At this time, everyone was almost here. After checking, the wind speed and said, “Your Majesty, my attendant is missing.”

When Bai Junzhuo heard him say this, he thought of the sound of falling into the water in his sleep and said, “I guess he was thrown into the river by those black things. Should we stop the boat and send someone down to save him?”

Yin Mu immediately stopped the boat and sent people into the water to see if they could save them. He turned around and asked Bai Junzhuo, “What black thing?”

Yin Xun told everyone what he saw on behalf of Bai Junzhuo. Hearing that, everyone was in an uproar, guessing what it was.

At this moment, Shen Qing suddenly pulled out her saber and said to the door of the dark cabin below the ship, “Come out!”

Everyone turned to look at the dark cabin door after being shouted by Shen Qing.

Seeing that the people inside did not come out, Shen Qing went over and opened the door. She forcefully saw the people inside pull them out and throw them in front of everyone and said, “Who are you? What are you doing sneakily?”

The man looked to be thirty or forty years old and looked like an honest man. Seeing so many people looking at him, he couldn’t help but feel nervous. He trembled and said, “I, I’m the boatman you guys found. I’m in charge of driving the boat. Wait, I’ll get off the boat when we get out of Hanzhong.”

“A boatman?” Shen Qing glanced at Yin Mu. Seeing that Yin Mu nodded, she put away her saber and said to him, “You can go down. Don’t eavesdrop on us.”

The boatman turned around and ran. After running for a while, he stopped. He turned around and said to everyone, “The black thing you saw just now is the water ghost!”

This was all he said, and when he was about to run again, Bai Junzhuo hurriedly tugged at Yin Xun’s sleeve. Yin Xun understood and said to the man, “Wait.”

The boatman stopped and turned his head, “May I ask if there are any other instructions?”

“You’ve made things clear. How did you know that black thing was a water ghost? Why did those water ghosts tie people up and throw them into the river?” Bai Junzhuo stepped forward and asked.

The man didn’t know if he was waiting for someone to ask him. Just as Bai Junzhuo finished asking, he immediately replied, “I’ve heard about the water ghost on this ship many times. The bigger the ship, the more likely it is to be haunted. It’s possible for a ship as big as you to get on seventeen or eighteen water ghosts.” They tie you up and throw you into the river just to eat your meat. ”

Bai Junzhuo frowned and said, “Since that water ghost wants to eat our meat, it’s fine to eat it directly on the boat. Why throw it into the river? Does the water ghost like dumplings?”

The boatman did not expect Bai Junzhuo to ask him such a question. Normally, after he finished telling this story, everyone else would be frightened out of their wits. They would never ask such a tricky question. The boatman didn’t know how to answer.

When Bai Junzhuo saw that he was unable to answer, he no longer asked, “Alright, you can go down first. I’ll ask you when I think of other questions.”

The boatman nodded and retreated.

Not long after, the few people who went down the river came up, and they also saved the followers who were at the same speed as the wind. That person was already flooded to the point of losing consciousness. Everyone spent a lot of effort to save his life.

After blowing for so long outside, everyone was almost sober. Fu Mingyue went over and said to Yin Mu, “Your Majesty, just now, this concubine felt an unbearable headache and was drowsy. She asked everyone else about it. I believe that someone drugged that dinner tonight.”

When Bai Junzhuo heard what Fu Mingyue said, he turned to look at them. She also knew that she had been drugged, but she didn’t say it out loud. Now, she was just listening to what Fu Mingyue was thinking.

Yin Mu nodded and said, “Probably.”

Fu Mingyue’s expression was not very good. She leaned over to Yin Mu’s ear and said something to Yin Mu. Yin Mu’s expression immediately changed.

Bai Junzhuo didn’t know what the two of them were talking about, but he could tell from their expressions that it wasn’t a good thing. She didn’t want to know, so she pulled Yin Xun’s clothes and said, “Zisu, it’s a little cold outside. Let’s go back.”

Yin Xun nodded and returned to his room with her.

When they reached the room, the two of them closed the door. Yin Xun asked her, “Are you really afraid of water ghosts because you’re so nervous?”

“Of course not,” Bai Junzhuo shook his head. “I don’t think the water ghost needs to drug us all to harm us.”

“That’s right, then what do you think is going on?” Yin Xun asked her.

Bai Junzhuo lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked him, “Zisu, do you feel that the black thing is somewhat like the skin of a human being wearing something?”

“What kind of skin are you wearing?” Yin Xun thought for a moment and said to her, “It looks like kelp to me.”

Bai Junzhuo was amused by him and nodded, “Yes, I also feel like a person wearing a big kelp when you say that.”

“So you suspect that someone pretended to be this water ghost and came to our ship to harm us?” Yin Xun asked her, “But who is it? What are they trying to harm us for?”

“Didn’t the boatman just say that the bigger the ship, the greater the chance of being attacked by the water ghost?” Bai Junzhuo said. So I think this water ghost is probably trying to make a fortune. They are hiding somewhere in the fog we passed by just now. When the passing ships pass by, they will disguise themselves as water ghosts and swim onto the ships. They will throw all the people on the ships into the river and take away the money on the ships. ”

After Yin Xun heard this, he nodded and said, “Very likely.”

“But when did they board the ship and drugged us?” As Bai Junzhuo spoke, he suddenly stood up and said, “Zisu, I’m going out to take a look. I’ll be back in a moment.”

Before Yin Xun could say anything, Bai Junzhuo opened the door and flashed out.

Bai Junzhuo went straight to the kitchen. She didn’t expect to see Yin Mu there. She was stunned for a moment, then turned around and wanted to wait for him to leave before coming back.

Unexpectedly, Yin Mu discovered her and said, “You don’t need to run away when you see me, do you?”

Bai Junzhuo couldn’t escape, so he turned around and wanted to bow to him. Yin Mu’s hand had already reached out and said, “I said you don’t have to bow every time. This isn’t in the palace.”

Bai Junzhuo straightened his body, lowered his head, and did not take the initiative to speak. He wanted to find an excuse to leave his side.

Yin Mu asked her, “Did you come here to find clues from the food at night and find out who drugged you?”

Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment. Since he had said “Ye”, it meant that he had also come to investigate. I didn’t expect that Yin Mu would be so idle lately and investigate the case himself.

Without waiting for her to reply, Yin Mu continued, “Just now, Ming Yue told me about her conjecture. Do you want to hear it?”

Only then did Bai Junzhuo raise his head to look at him. What he said was what Fu Mingyue had secretly said to him outside just now?

“Ming Yue suspects that there is a mole on our ship. She wants to murder me.” She was still hesitating whether to know or not. Yin Mu said first, “All of us were struck unprepared. If that mole succeeds, I will die without a burial ground. Thinking about it is truly terrifying.”

Bai Junzhuo smiled and said, “If I wanted to murder you, I would definitely not start with Captain Feng. The first one to tie you up and throw you into the river, everything will be fine in an instant.”

Yin Mu was not angry at her words at all, and said, “From your tone, do you think that this matter is not caused by us?”

Bai Junzhuo nodded and said, “I think the people who want to harm us must first throw away Captain Feng. Just because Captain Feng’s room is at the front, they plan to come one by one until they throw all of us into the river. This boat and the things on board are theirs.”

“You seem to know who did it?” Yin Mu asked.

Bai Junzhuo shook his head, “I don’t know yet. It’s just a guess. First, I need to know who drugged him.”

“It’s possible for anyone who came to the kitchen before dinner to be drugged.” Yin Mu looked at Bai Junzhuo and said, “I heard that you were here before dinner, weren’t you?”

Bai Junzhuo had been here before, but she didn’t come in.

She did not want to conceal this matter, so she nodded and said, “Yes, but I did not come in. I just wandered around the door for a while and then went back.”

“Then why didn’t you have dinner? Was it to stay awake?” Yin Mu asked.

Bai Junzhuo understood now. Yin Mu’s meaning was very clear. She was the mole who drugged everyone and tried to harm him.
