Housekeeper of the Hundred Blossom Palace

Chapter 159: First Investigation Experience

Alright, I promise now that the report were about to take will never leave the Ministry of Justice, and that your story will never be leaked.

The mans first words were something akin to swearing an oath.

Or should I say, youre going to interview me right away? How impatient!

Yui Mei inwardly thought; nevertheless, she still felt troubled about the topic theyre going to talk to now that she had to engage in gossip with the man.

She wasnt sure whether this guy was willing to discuss medicine and food with her?

Those were her thoughts, when the man immediately posed a question.

Whats your name?

Chan Yui Mei.

Yui Mei normally refrained from naming herself when talking to VIPs, but she knew that things might get complicated if she were to lie or remain silent. Thus, she decided to just tell the truth.

I see.

The man raised a brow when he heard Yui Meis name, but that was it.

Apparently, the man was familiar with the name Chan Yui Mei.

The man didnt name himself, so maybe that was also confidential information.

He probably used a lot of alias during infiltration missions or investigations.

Yui Mei couldnt stop her wild thoughts, when the man promptly moved to the next question.

Then, how did you discover that stinky thing?

It was a query that she had to answer truthfully, but she couldnt help ask something that bothered her.

Ahm, havent you heard about it from where you got the information?

Indeed, he should have come to know about this stinky object from the crown princes side.

Then, he mustve heard about the general story from them.

The man glared at her when she asked this, but he still answered.

Theres nothing more dubious than hearsay from other people, so theres no merit in it as information.

The man bluntly retorted. Yui Mei nodded her head in agreement.

They dont have audio and video recordings, so they could only do it by info relay, I guess.

In that case, it mustve been very hard to obtain information that was certainly true.

The man wanted to lessen the participants in the info relay to the best of his ability, apparently.

Yui Mei understood, so she proceeded to repeat what she said to the crown prince and Yang.

..And so, I think it might turn into something dangerous, so I relied on my acquaintance and went to the crown princes palace.

Yui Mei finally finished talking about the matters that had transpired that day.

As for the source of her information, she tried to gloss over it by saying I heard it from a traveling man in the borderland as usual.

She just wanted to let it pass by making the impression that there were many traveling people with extensive knowledge in the borderland.

The man said really and didnt pursue it any further. He wrote with a brush, his eyes focused on the paper. 

She was properly cleaning, so she knew the way to the stench. We discovered several objects similar to that thing, but they were either thrown near the rooms, or else far away.

The mans brush glided over the paper as he mumbled while organizing his thoughts..

Ooh, sounds like were in an investigation meeting of a cop drama!

Yui Meis fangirl mood was quietly exploding, when they heard the sound of footsteps pattering down the hallway.

Bang!

Yui Mei!

A familiar voice resounded, and at the same time, the door opened with a bang.

The person standing in front of the door was no other than Libin.

Eh, its the Imperial Palace, but hes Libin instead of Li Yong?

He didnt change into his imperial guard uniform, apparently.

Yui Mei was immersed in her carefree thoughts, but Libin hurriedly strode towards her.

Oy Yui Mei, what did you do to be taken into the penitentiary, huh!?

Then she was scolded for some reason.

It seemed that he thought she had been captured and taken to the Ministry of Justice, so she corrected him.

Lord Libin, it was decided that Miss Xu will be taken here, and Im just here to accompany her.

Libin scrunched his brows when he heard that, then he muttered accompany?

Would anyone be willing to come to the penitentiary for such a reason?

Libin muttered, thoroughly perplexed, but unfortunately for him, such a person did exist, and she was right in front of him.
