With a solemn expression, Hua Qianqian nodded earnestly, "Alright, then I’ll be troubling Junior Brother Mo!"
"No need to be polite, it’s what I should do." Mo Hua waved his hand, and then he laid out the plan he had already thought of:
"Senior Sister, when you return to Hundred Flower Valley, conduct investigations quietly without exposing your intentions."
"Note down discreetly all matters related to Senior Sister Ye Jin, including whom she interacted with, where she went, and what she said."
"Whether there are any enmities, any grudges with others, and so on..."
"Also..."
Mo Hua spoke fluently, listing a slew of details.
Hua Qianqian appeared somewhat dazed.
Junior Brother Mo, how is he so adept at this...
But then she thought, given his connection with the Taoist Court, his knowledge in investigating cases seemed quite fitting?
Hua Qianqian nodded, "Alright, Junior Brother Mo, I remembered it."
Mo Hua then arranged, "If we discover anything, we’ll still meet here. If I find out anything, I’ll also inform you."
"Okay!" Hua Qianqian’s gaze was resolute.
She was determined to uncover the true cause of Jin Er’s death!
Afterward, Hua Qianqian returned to Hundred Flower Valley, and Mo Hua returned to Taixu Gate.
In Hundred Flower Valley, Mo Hua now had a "spy".
Days later, the two met as agreed at the foot of Taixu Gate’s mountain.
Hua Qianqian secretly conveyed the information she had gathered to Mo Hua:
"Just like other sisters, Jin Er sister usually interacted with the elders, instructors, or fellow disciples of the sect, and there wasn’t anything special."
"I haven’t heard of her bearing grudges against anyone either."
"Her words and deeds were as usual, except for one thing, which seemed strange..."
Hua Qianqian’s expression was puzzled, "According to one of my senior sisters, Jin Er previously asked her a very strange question."
"A strange question?"
"Yes," Hua Qianqian said slowly, "She asked... After a person dies, can they become a ghost?"
Mo Hua’s pupils involuntarily shrunk.
Ghost?!
