Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 94

Chapter 094 Endless Mantis
“Miss Bai, please follow me to see that person.”

Bai Junzhuo nodded and followed Cha Jinzhi to the prison. The two of them stopped in front of a man’s cell covered in bruises.

Unexpectedly, this person was not Bai Gongyuan.

Bai Junzhuo looked at the man’s injuries and asked with a frown, “Lord Cha, did you torture him?”

Cha Jinzhi hurriedly shook his head, “Miss Bai misunderstood. The injuries on this person’s body were not caused by me. He was already injured like this when Commandant Li caught him.”

Bai Junzhuo nodded and asked, “Why did Lord Cha say that he is related to me?”

“Miss Bai, you should listen to him yourself.” Cha Jinzhi knocked on the cell door, and the man in the cell opened his eyes.

When he saw Bai Junzhuo, he immediately flipped over and knelt down again. He kowtowed repeatedly and said, “Third Miss, please save this lowly person!”

“Who are you?”

“This lowly person’s name is De Zi. He was originally under Second Master. This lowly person knows who killed Old Master!”

“Who is it?” Bai Junzhuo asked expressionlessly.

‘”It’s Second Master! Second Master ordered this lowly man to kill me,” the man said immediately. “After killing this lowly man, this lowly man already took the money and left. However, Second Master still hasn’t let this lowly man off. Send someone to chase after me. The injuries on my body were all caused by Second Master’s men. If Lord Commandant hadn’t rushed over to save me in time, this lowly man would have died long ago!”

Although Bai Junzhuo also suspected that Bai Gonglu had been killed by Bai Gongyuan, she would not completely believe this person’s words. She probed, “Where is the weapon you used to kill my father?”

‘”The knife that this lowly man used to kill Master was a long knife with a bloody hole. At that time, this lowly man thought that Second Master would not let this lowly man off so easily. He buried that knife under a white chrysanthemum in Second Master’s courtyard. He thought that if he fell into Second Master’s hands, he would be able to survive by doing so.”

Bai Junzhuo frowned slightly. Originally, she was very sure that it was Bai Gonglu who did it. However, just as she discovered the saber, she caught the killer who was ordered to kill by Bai Gongyuan. This was too coincidental. No matter how she looked at it, it was someone who purposely showed it to her.

Cha Jinzhi said, “Miss Bai, the murderer of Miracle Doctor Bai is probably the Second Master of the Bai Clan.”

Bai Junzhuo thought for a while, then suddenly asked, “Oh right, Lord Cha, did you just say that you grabbed the masked man who delivered the medicine to Shen Ze?”

Cha Jinzhi nodded.

“Who is that person?”

“It’s the Second Master of the Bai Clan.”

“What?” Bai Junzhuo was surprised. It was indeed him?

Cha Jinzhi nodded.

“Lord Cha, can I go and see him?” Bai Junzhuo immediately asked.

“Miss Bai, please.” Cha Jinzhi took her to Bai Gongyuan’s cell. Inside, Bai Gongyuan seemed to be leaning weakly against the corner of the wall. Seeing the two of them coming over, he opened his eyes slightly.

Bai Junzhuo said, “Second Uncle, it really is you.”

A complicated expression appeared in Bai Gongyuan’s eyes. After a long silence, he turned to Cha Jinzhi and whispered, “Lord Cha, can I talk to Zhuo’er alone?”

Cha Jinzhi looked at Bai Junzhuo and saw that Bai Junzhuo nodded slightly. Then, he turned around and walked out.

As soon as he left, Bai Junzhuo immediately asked, “Why didn’t you struggle to resist the Cold Food Powder and confess?”

Bai Gongyuan sneered, “Didn’t you test the Profound Maiden a long time ago? Did you know from her mouth that it was me who did it?”

“Mysterious Maiden didn’t say anything,” Bai Junzhuo smiled as well. “Second Uncle, she’s really a loving and righteous woman. I’ve been testing her for a long time. As long as it’s about you, she won’t say a word.”

“Is that so?” Bai Gongyuan didn’t seem to believe it.

“Yes,” Bai Junzhuo stared into Bai Gongyuan’s eyes and said word by word, “Mysterious Maiden died this morning.”

A strange look flashed through Bai Gongyuan’s eyes, as if he was sad. After a while, she returned to normal and sneered, “That stupid woman can’t do anything.”

Bai Junzhuo smiled faintly. “Yes, she is quite stupid. However, I have always thought that Second Uncle is very, very smart. For so many years, he has always maintained a seemingly indifferent appearance. He seems to care nothing about anything, but he has already planned to seize everything from the Bai Clan. However, there is one thing that I can’t understand.”

Bai Gongyuan said, “Just ask.”

“You know that Lord Cha has already controlled the matter of the Cold Food Powder, why did you go to see Shen Ze at this juncture?” Bai Junzhuo asked, “I don’t believe you were afraid that Shen Ze would poison him, so you specially sent him medicine.”

“Do you believe me? Of course I know that nothing can happen at this time. I originally planned to give up on Shen Ze. Someone knocked me out after separating from the Mystic Maiden this morning. When I woke up, I appeared in the Shen Ze Mansion with my mask on. I happened to be caught by Lord Cha’s subordinates.” Bai Gongyuan smiled bitterly and said, “The mantis catching the cicada is behind us, but I don’t know who this yellow bird is.”

Bai Jun was speechless. Originally, he thought that Bai Gongyuan was the ultimate boss, but there was actually someone behind him?

Bai Gongyuan suddenly leaned in front of the prison gate and grabbed it. “Zhuo’er, this person can’t be you, right?” He said.

“I wish it was me,” Bai Junzhuo smiled at him. “But Second Uncle, I’ve disappointed you.”

Bai Gongyuan sat back down and smiled bitterly, “We’ve done everything we can. We only waited for the last step, but we didn’t expect to be tripped by someone in the shadows.”

“However, the matter of Han Shi San is your doing. Even if you were schemed to enter the prison, you deserved it. It seems like the person who knocked you unconscious in the Shen Clan is not a bad person. He only made this decision because he couldn’t find any evidence and wanted you to be brought to justice as soon as possible.” Bai Junzhuo looked at him and said indifferently.

Bai Gongyuan only smiled and didn’t say anything.

“Now that the evidence is conclusive, selling Han Shi San in private is definitely a capital offense. In addition, you plotted against your father.” Bai Junzhuo looked at him and said, “Second Uncle, you really can’t escape.”

Bai Gongyuan coldly swept her a glance, “Even though I’m caught now, you don’t have to blame me for anything. I didn’t kill Big Brother.”

“Not you? But your subordinate De Zi said that you sent him to kill my father.” Bai Junzhuo raised his eyebrows and asked.

“Haha, I don’t know any De Zi at all,” Bai Gongyuan sneered. “Just like you said, I am definitely a capital sin, so why should I care about one more sin?”

Bai Junzhuo thought about it carefully and found that there were indeed many doubts. For example, if Bai Gongyuan didn’t plan on letting the person he saw kill Duke Bai Lu go, he would have already sent someone to kill him. There was no need to wait so long. It was just when she found the murder weapon.

“Whether it’s you or not, we won’t know until Lord Cha is arrayed. It’s useless for you to tell me.” Bai Junzhuo said.

“You’re right,” Bai Gongyuan nodded. “However, the Bai Clan can only rely on you now that I’m dead. My mother, I’ll have to trouble you to take care of her.”

“There’s no need to worry about this Second Uncle. I’m also a member of the Bai Clan, and I’m also granddaughter of Grandma.”

Bai Gongyuan sighed and muttered, “I didn’t expect things to turn out like this. The only person I’ve always wanted to kill was you. But now, shouldn’t I be glad that I haven’t succeeded?”

Bai Junzhuo did not answer. After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, “Since that’s the case, I’ll leave first. Second Uncle, take care.”

“Wait!” Bai Gongyuan suddenly stopped her and said, “I still have the most important thing to say. Please help me!”

Bai Junzhuo turned to look at him, not saying whether he would help or not.

Bai Gongyuan suddenly knelt in front of her and said to her, “Your second sister, Bai Junlan, did not target you like Tao’er did. She has never done anything wrong to you. Can you save her for the sake that she is also your relative?”

“Save her?” Bai Junzhuo frowned and asked, “Didn’t you say that Second Sister was spending the summer in the countryside? Didn’t you?”

Bai Gongyuan said, “She was kidnapped by a black-clothed man. The black-clothed man wanted our Bai Clan’s scrolls in exchange. Bai Lian and I are both dead. The black-clothed man will definitely come find you. Please save Lan’er. Second Uncle is very grateful!”

Bai Junzhuo was still thinking about who the black-clothed man he was talking about. Suddenly, he saw Bai Gongyuan turn around and ruthlessly smash into the wall. With a “dong” sound, his body fell to the ground softly.

“Second Uncle!”

Blood trickled down Bai Gongyuan’s head. He breathed quickly and weakly said to Bai Junzhuo, “It’s hard for you to call me Second Uncle. Second Uncle has let you down …”

Bai Junzhuo grabbed the cell door with both hands and shouted, “Don’t speak yet. I’ll go in immediately to stop the bleeding!”

After saying that, he turned around and shouted, “Lord Cha, Lord Cha, hurry up and come over!”

When Cha Jinzhi heard the shout, he hurriedly rushed in. Seeing this situation, he was shocked and immediately ordered someone to open the cell door.

Bai Junzhuo rushed in and covered the wound on Bai Gongyuan’s head with his hand.

Bai Gongyuan shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, Second Uncle will die sooner or later. It would be better to die here and give the Bai Clan some face …”

His voice grew weaker and weaker as he looked at Bai Junzhuo with expectant eyes.

“Alright, I promise you, I will definitely rescue Second Sister. I won’t let anything happen to her!”

After saying that, Bai Gongyuan slowly closed his eyes.

Seeing this, Cha Jinzhi whispered to the jailer to call the coroner over. Not long after, the coroner arrived. He examined Bai Gongyuan and said to Cha Jinzhi, “My lord, he is already dead.”

Cha Jinzhi nodded. He walked over to help Bai Junzhuo, who was slightly stunned, and comforted him softly, “Miss Bai, don’t be too sad. Although he is your second uncle, he is also your enemy who killed your father, so you …”

“He didn’t kill my father!” Bai Junzhuo suddenly opened his mouth. He didn’t hear any sorrow in his tone and said very calmly, “However, he did do the Cold Food Powder. Therefore, he deserved to die. However, his father’s death is none of his business.”

Cha Jinzhi’s tone was somewhat uncertain. “But the evidence is all there …”

“Therefore, I have to trouble Lord Cha to interrogate that De Zi with all my heart. Don’t let those who harbor evil intentions succeed, and don’t let the real culprit go unpunished!”

Cha Jinzhi was stunned. He immediately nodded and said, “Miss Bai, don’t worry, I will definitely find out the truth!”

When he came out of prison, the sunlight outside made Bai Jun unable to open his eyes. The three people from the Bai Clan who were trying to harm her had all died. Bai Junzhuo’s heart was filled with mixed emotions. He didn’t know whether to sigh or feel sad. Everything was like a dream.

Walking through an alley, Yin Xun saw an empty corner. He stood with his chest crossed and waited for her to approach.

Bai Junzhuo exchanged glances with him, and a bolt of lightning flashed in his mind. Could it be …
