Enchanting Alchemist

"Poison?" Su Nianxia said strangely: "But the students and doctors from Sky Mansion Academy said that your physique is weak, and did not say that you were poisoned."    

Hearing that, Hua Ruge frowned, and quickly inspected his own body.    

She quickly discovered that the poison that had caused her to faint had disappeared.    

Lan Bing'er thought for a moment, then said: "Big sister has been tricked."    

"Who did it?" Su Nianxia asked with a puzzled expression.    

"He was bitten by a snake. It was that Ruyan that we supported up the mountain." Hua Ruge took a deep breath, his face full of thought.    

Su Nianxia was startled: "I saw her after the exam ended and she came over to ask about your condition. This woman sure knows how to act."    

"An eagle that has been fighting for the rest of my life, I didn't expect to be pecked in the eye by an eagle this time." Hua Ruge pursed his lips, an ice-cold and sharp glint flowing under his seemingly calm eyes.    

Lan Bing'er said as he furrowed his brows, "It's not the day that the Sky Mansion Academy will enter the academy yet. She must still be in the imperial capital, so I'll send someone to check on her right now."    

"Investigate secretly, don't alert the enemy." Hua Ruge reminded them.    

Lan Bing'er nodded.    

He knew that Hua Ruge suspected that the girl had accomplices.    

Hua Ruge took a deep breath and calmed himself down, then asked: "How are the results of the assessment?"    

Hearing that, Su Nianxia was in a difficult situation.    

"From the looks of it, you've calculated the test this time. From the looks of it, I ought to be an outer court disciple, right?" Hua Ruge said.    

Su Nianxia said with unwillingness in his heart, "Big Sister Ruge, go and find the examiner to explain the situation. Your talent is so great, you will definitely arrange things anew."    

"According to the way Sky Mansion Academy, they won't think about all these. What they want is the result." Hua Ruge squinted his eyes.    

It was obvious that the person who had plotted against her had taken this into account. Otherwise, he wouldn't have acted in a way that she was most confident of.    

Su Nianxia's face was filled with distress.    

Lan Bing'er's face also did not look good.    

"Don't get angry. I will remember this grudge. Just get it back when the time comes." Hua Ruge said.    

No matter what, she had entered the Sky Mansion Academy, and the low starting point had never been able to stop her from flying, so she did not really care about it, but the enemies could not be allowed to leave.    

Otherwise, he would be able to scam her a second time.    

Lan Bing'er's people were obviously not good at tracking and searching. It was because of this that they had requested the help of the Prefecture Overseer's yamen to discover Ru Yan's residence that night.    

The yamen runner came back to report, "High Priest, someone reported to us that Ru Yan died."    

The expressions of the three people in the room weren't good.    

Hua Ruge grinned, but there was no smile in her eyes, this matter had angered her, and also aroused her interest.    

"Play with me? Then let's see who dies in the end? "    

After she said that, she stood up and said, "Let's go to the scene!"    

Lan Bing'er's identity was special, so he could not casually leave the house. Thus, Su Nianxia followed Hua Ruge and the other two to the place where Ruyan died.    

This shabby little inn had already been sealed off by the soldiers, and the people inside the inn were originally controlled and dined in the hall on the first floor. The soldiers brought Hua Ruge and the other two to the second floor.    

The door on the second floor to the stairwell was open, and the room was simply furnished with a narrow bed, a table, and a bench.    

A corpse like Yan Yan was lying on the floor directly in front of the door. His heart was pierced by a dagger, and fresh red blood dyed his snow-white dress. His eyes were wide open in death.    

Hua Ruge looked at her corpse and asked: "Has anyone entered?"    

The officer replied respectfully, "We were afraid of destroying the room so we didn't dare to go in."    

"I'll go in alone." Hua Ruge said, but did not immediately go in.    

She slowly crouched down and carefully observed the floor for a while before she walked in and examined the corpse.    

The corpse was already cold and there was only one fatal wound. There was not much blood on the ground.    

"Take him down and call the coroner to determine the exact time of death." Hua Ruge instructed.    

As the saying goes, there are specializations in the arts. She treated the living, so she knew very little about the dead.    

Two officials came in and carried the man out. Since it was a murder case, there was a coroner waiting by the side. They were going to examine the body in the corridor.    

Hua Ruge went forward and discovered that there was only one window in the small room. She went up and opened the window to take a breath of fresh air.    

After a simple walk, she walked out and instructed the official, "Search him. Give me everything related to the deceased."    

The coroner came forward to report: "Miss, the deceased was killed about five hours ago. Last night, around the third fragment of the night, there was only a wound on his chest."    

"Men, go to the shopkeeper and check how many people have left the inn this morning. Bring them all back to me, not a single one of them can be let go." Hua Ruge said with a serious expression.    

The official hurriedly ran downstairs.    

It had only been half an hour since the city gates were opened. The chase should still be coming.    

Hua Ruge heaved a sigh of relief as she thought about it. Then, she raised her hand and carried the corpse away.    

Hua Ruge had long since moved a chair over and placed it in the hallway, then sat down without any hesitation.    

The room was not big, the search went smoothly and in a short while, a tray with a bag of clothes was brought in front of Hua Ruge.    

Although Hua Ruge's Da Yu was unranked and unranked, they could only obediently follow the orders of the High Priest.    

Hua Ruge stretched out his hand to flip through it, but there was nothing inside. Inside the bag was only the daily necessities and clothes, but when he opened the bag, he found a letter pressed under it.    

The yellow envelope was written as if it were a letter written on a piece of paper.    

Opening the envelope, there was a thin letter inside. Hua Ruge read it and realized that this was a letter that Ru Yan's mother asked the Elementary Scholar to write. The contents were not only the mother's thoughts on her daughter, but also the usual words about her family.    

The words on the letter were blurry and faintly stained with water. Clearly, those who had read the letter had shed a few tears.    

"Where did you find it?" Hua Ruge raised the letter in his hand and asked.    

The official stepped forward and replied, "To reply young lady, I found it by the pillow."    

Hua Ruge closed his eyes and asked: "How is the investigation going on?"    

"He's not back yet. He's probably on his way." The official replied carefully.    

Hua Ruge nodded indifferently, and got up to go downstairs.    

Just as the official did not know what this seemingly enigmatic and unfathomable girl was thinking, Hua Ruge stood on the stairs and shouted out, "Waiter, give me a plate of steamed buns and two bowls of porridge."    

At this moment, about fifty or so people were standing around on the first floor. When they heard that the person investigating the case didn't ask, they all ate their porridge with a puzzled expression.    

The waiter was also stunned for a moment. He waited until the shopkeeper gave him a meaningful glance before he stumbled towards the kitchen.    

The security of the city was extremely good, especially in this capital. This was the first time they had seen someone die, and the waiter's soul was about to disappear from fright.    

Under the gaze of everyone, Hua Ruge sat down on the side of the stairs, and followed suit, confused.    

The officials and the people who were being controlled were waiting, unsure of what was going on.    

Very quickly, the waiter brought the steamed buns and porridge from the pot in the morning. However, even in front of a beauty like Hua Ruge, his hands were still trembling.    

Hua Ruge reached out and took the porridge, and casually asked: "I heard that you found the corpse on the way here?"    

Her second hand trembled again. Fortunately, the porridge had been taken away by Hua Ruge, otherwise, it would definitely be spilled.    

"Yes ?" "It's me ?" The waiter said with a trembling voice.    

"Tell me about it." Hua Ruge picked up a bun and took a bite.
