Mo Hua thought for a moment and then said, "I'll go too!"
"No way."
Gu Changhuai rejected the idea without a second thought.
"Alright, then," Mo Hua didn't press further, just said casually, "then when you question him, if there's anything you don't understand, come back and ask me..."
Gu Changhuai frowned, "What does it have to do with you?"
"Because Flower Gentleman was 'captured by me'!"
Mo Hua emphasized once again.
Gu Changhuai was stopped short, unable to help but say, "Fine, you come along too."
Mo Hua's eyes brightened, "Mhm, mhm."
So Gu Changhuai told Wenren Wan that he would take Mo Hua out for a bit.
Wenren Wan was somewhat surprised, unsure of what business Gu Changhuai could have taking Mo Hua out.
But seeing Gu Changhuai reluctant and Mo Hua looking excited, it must not be bad for Mo Hua, so she nodded her head and admonished:
"Be careful on the road."
"Take good care of Mo Hua..."
Wenren Wan admonished again.
"Yes."
Gu Changhuai sighed.
Afterward, Mo Hua accompanied Gu Changhuai in the Gu Family's carriage, speeding through the night and arriving at Luan Mountain City.
Entering Luan Mountain City, they proceeded to the Taoist Court.
Gu Changhuai showed the Supervisor's badge and passed unobstructed all the way into the Taoist Prison beneath Luan Mountain City.
However, when they found Flower Gentleman, Gu Changhuai's complexion turned cold, and Mo Hua's gaze sharpened.
Flower Gentleman...
Lying in his cell, breath still.
He was already a dead man.
Death silent and unnoticed.
Mo Hua looked up, surveying the oppressively damp and dark Taoist Prison, lowered his voice, and whispered to Gu Changhuai:
"Uncle Gu, do we, I mean, does our Taoist Court, possibly have an 'internal traitor'?"
Gu Changhuai's face was as cold as ice, wordless.
