Chapter 480: Chapter 480: Fox and Bear Brainstorming

"No, Fool is one of us, and if he’s missing, of course, we’ll go look for him as well. Just come to notify us if you have any good news."

Li Wenli and Bai Junjun hastily left the command center after speaking.

If Fool was just fooling around and disappeared on his own, it would not be worrisome; we could easily find him with everyone searching like this.

But if Fool’s unique identity is related to his disappearance, that’s what scares me.

If it’s the case, unless the person hiding Fool reveals themselves, it would be very hard for us to find him in a short period of time.

Li Wenli and Bai Junjun told Ah Dao and others to look around for any signs of struggle or fight, while the two themselves quickly went back to their own small courtyard.

Only Rabbit was home keeping watch, and upon seeing them return, thought Fool had been found, only to realize they had found nothing.

The pair didn’t delay and briskly moved into the living room to fetch Fool’s calligraphy set—the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone—examining every trace meticulously.

Fool’s handwriting was indeed graceful and elegant; the more Li Wenli and Bai Junjun looked, the more amazed they became. This skill couldn’t come from an ordinary family.

The two had harbored doubts about Fool’s identity over the past few days and now felt it even more unusual.

"Thinking about it, there was nothing particularly unusual about Fool when he was with us,"

"The only peculiarity might be that since we arrived in Dai County, he often wandered outside with Xiao Shan and Xiao Yu."

"Suppose Fool’s identity is special, and someone has been secretly looking for him during these days he’s been missing. It actually makes sense that he might have been discovered and secretly taken away in Dai County."

"The key question is whether this person from the past is a friend or a foe? What are their intentions towards him?"

While examining Fool’s notes, the two brainstormed ideas.

Bai Junjun narrowed her eyes earnestly, "I’ve never seen this handwriting in the Imperial Capital."

The previous host often participated in various conferences on poetry and literature so was very familiar with the writings of talented young princes and princely heirs; in her memory, no one’s handwriting resembled this.

Li Wenli nodded: "This confirms that Fool is not from the Imperial Capital’s circles. To my knowledge, among the nobles outside the Imperial Capital, there are only two households; one of them is now in the Northern Lands, while the other is Prince Heqing who rebelled back then."

"So you’re saying that Fool is a princely heir?"

The two were discussing this explosive news, yet they showed no emotion as if they were not talking about the offspring of the infamous Prince Heqing, but rather about ants moving house before rain—a common and trivial matter.

Rabbit at the sidelines was completely dumbfounded.

What were they talking about?

Though he was young, he was well aware of who Prince Heqing was—the perennial sinner of Baiju Country!

It was him who initiated the rebellion that led to the tragedy in Baiju Country.

Although Prince Heqing had been suppressed, Baiju Country could never return to its former state. For more than three years, the country had been plagued by wars, the Vassal Kings had carved out their territories, and the people could hardly speak of their suffering.

Whenever people mentioned the culprit Prince Heqing, they would spit in disdain.

And now the boss was actually suggesting that Fool was related to Prince Heqing?

Could it be true?

Li Wenli and Bai Junjun ignored Rabbit at the side and continued theorizing.

"It’s more likely to be someone on our side; if it was someone who viewed him with enmity, they would surely want to expose the son of the traitor to the world."

Agreeing with Li Wenli’s analysis, Bai Junjun nodded, "Who do you think this person could be?"

Li Wenli quietly gazed outside the courtyard: "It must be someone who has developed a certain relationship with Fool, to be able to take him away silently."

Bai Junjun, sparked by the thought, quietly turned her gaze towards the opposite tavern.
