Chapter 110 The Lei Family
The next morning.

Bai Zhiqian woke up early, she was going to say goodbye to Xiaoying first, so she immediately left for Lei's house.

But as soon as she got out of the room, she saw Ling Yue and others gathered together, with a panicked expression.

"What happened?" she asked involuntarily.

After several people looked at each other in blank dismay, Ling Yue said, "Xiaoying disappeared early in the morning, leaving only this letter."

"What?" Bai Zhiqian rushed forward, feeling something was wrong in her heart, "Even if you are in a hurry to complete the task, you don't have to be in such a hurry."

She took the letter, and on the envelope was written a few words personally signed by her sister. She quickly opened it and read it. The content was also very simple, just a few short sentences.

"Sister, you don't have to worry. I'm going to investigate the Shadow Headquarters. I know you have many questions. I will tell you all of them when I come back."

"Your sister, Xiaoyingliu..."

Bai Zhiqian didn't speak for a long time, and the letter Xiaoying left her seemed to be saying goodbye no matter how you looked at it.

"Xiaoying, don't worry about it..." She sighed silently in her heart.

She immediately smiled and said to everyone, "Don't worry, everyone, Xiaoying just can't wait, she went to perform the task first, and will be back soon."

"I'm going to Lei's house now, so you just stay here obediently and don't go out, Lingyue, Fuxing, I'll leave everything to you."

"You have to be careful too." Ling Yue instructed.

"Don't worry, just wait for my good news." Bai Zhiqian waved her hand, and left with Yi Yao without looking back, leaving only a few people with worried faces.

Along the way, seeing that Bai Zhiqian was in a bad mood, Yi Yao comforted her, "Girl, don't worry, you and I have seen Xiaoying's ability to escape, she will definitely return safely."

Bai Zhiqian forced a smile, suppressing the uncomfortable feeling in her heart, "That's true, but now is not the time to think about those things, we must find the key from Lei's house as soon as possible."

……

Looking at the familiar but unfamiliar huge courtyard in front of her, Bai Zhiqian was a little stunned. As the Lei family is a long-established cultivating family, every brick and tile here reveals a simple and simple atmosphere.

"As expected of the Lei family, this kind of background is not comparable to the Bai family. No wonder Bai Feng has always wanted to promote the marriage between the two families."

Bai Zhiqian went in to play a few times when she was a child, and the space inside is even more huge, like a giant maze, people who come here for the first time will definitely get lost.

And seeing Bai Zhiqian standing at the gate for a long time, the guards at the gate came to check, but because she had changed into Lei Lingyin's appearance, the guards were stunned for an instant.

They all took a few steps back before asking in surprise, "Third Young Master, are you... are you still alive?"

Bai Zhiqian was stunned for a moment, and then reprimanded in a cold voice, "What nonsense are you talking about, is it possible that I'm still dead?"

The guard hurriedly explained, "Third young master, didn't something happen to the spirit boat? It was rumored that the shadow attacked the spirit boat, and everyone on it was spared, even you sacrificed."

"Shadow attacking the spirit boat?" Bai Zhiqian nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice, "I also escaped by luck, open the door and let me in, I have to report to the Patriarch."

The guards glanced at each other, but they all refused, "I'm sorry, third young master, the family thinks that you lost the spirit boat, and at that time they all thought you were sacrificed, so the patriarch has already drawn you out of the family tree."

"Now you are not counted as Lei's family. According to the family rules, you can't do it."

They actually slowly opened their posture, as if to stop her.

……

Lei Lingyin was silent for a long time before continuing, "I understand what you mean, but I'm really not sure that it's my mother's body. Although the body is very similar, I burned the body completely beyond recognition."

"In that case, it's possible that your mother is still alive?" Bai Zhiqian couldn't help but ask.

"Although there is a possibility, I don't think she is alive, because her feigning death is meaningless, and she is just an ordinary maid. It is impossible to cheat the world by feigning death."

Lei Lingyin paused, and suddenly said coldly, "Take a step back and say, if she really faked her death, then she left me for so many years and left me alone in Lei's house to suffer, I really want to ask her why."

Bai Zhiqian was silent for a moment before continuing, "We won't talk about this anymore, sorry, but I want to ask about the situation when your mother was killed?"

"Well, it's been too long, and I was too young at the time, so I can't remember many details." Lei Lingyin lowered her head and said in a deep voice, "I remember that night she took me to sleep, but in the middle of the night I I was awakened, and I found that there seemed to be a dark figure standing outside the window."

"I wanted to wake up my mother, but she was too tired during the day, and I wanted her to have a good rest. Fortunately, I went out alone to check, and there was a black figure standing outside the window, which seemed to be a woman."

"But before I got close, the woman found me and ran away. I quickly chased after her, but I couldn't find her after running far. At this time, I heard the sound of people screaming and burning, and I hurried back. , but the whole yard is on fire."

Lei Lingyin immediately gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sure it was man-made, otherwise the ordinary fire would not have burned so fast. Although a large number of water-type monks rushed over to extinguish the flames, the house would have burned down long ago."

"They found a charred black corpse, almost the same size as my mother. Everyone who knew my mother said it was my mother."

Bai Zhiqian frowned, and said in a low voice, "It's clearly someone's plan, and there's more than one person. First, someone lured you away, and then someone took the opportunity to set fire to your mother."

"Of course I know." Lei Lingyin took a deep breath before continuing, "In fact, although I have been investigating for many years and have no clue, there are still a few suspects. The first is of course my father Lei Hao."

"He has always had no feelings for my mother, and he is a very face-saving person. He has long regarded my mother as a stain, and it is not impossible for him to kill her. Moreover, it is easy for him to do it. Otherwise, how could ordinary people easily be here? The Lei family set fire to it and retreated completely."

"Because of this, it's not like he did it anyway." Bai Zhiqian said in a deep voice, "As the head of the Lei family, it's extremely easy to kill someone in the Lei family, and it's impossible to use the ostentation of arson The way."

"Besides, I don't know if you can see that your father still seems to have a little affection for you. He was in the Bai family that day because of you."

"He did it for his own face." Lei Lingyin gritted his teeth immediately, "Even if he is not the murderer, he must have something to do with it."

"Actually, I have long suspected that my mother's death was related to his wife and concubine. Lei Hao had a wife and a concubine. That concubine was his wife's personal maid in the early years. They were so close that Lei Hao did not marry another for many years."

"But my mother had an accident. They have always regarded my mother as a thorn in their side. If they killed my mother, I would not be surprised at all, and it is easy for them to do it."

Bai Zhiqian nodded, "I probably know, just leave it to me, and I will definitely investigate the truth about your mother's death."

"It's fine if you want to find something yourself, but I'll warn you in advance that you represent me in Lei's house. I'm not afraid of you causing trouble, but I'm afraid you won't be able to solve it!" Lei Lingyin said coldly.
