Chapter 485: Chapter 485 The True Identity
Since they were no longer pretending, it naturally also indicated that the Fool was indeed in Shopkeeper Yan’s hands.
Bai Junjun, with her hands supporting her jaw, looked at Shopkeeper Yan seriously, "Is the Fool really your brother?"
"..." Shopkeeper Yan belatedly realized that he had been led into a trap by this girl.
Now that this story had been exposed, given their intelligence, they certainly would have guessed her true identity.
Shopkeeper Yan simply did not hide it anymore, "Guaranteed genuine."
Bai Junjun and Li Wenli were at a loss for words for a moment.
If the Fool was her brother, then they truly had no right to interfere with someone’s revenge, and it would be perfectly justified for her to take the Fool away.
"Even so, we still hope we can see the Fool in person."
After all, they had lived and eaten together for so long, and suddenly there emerged a person claiming to be his sister, whisking him away in such a secretive manner.
Bai Junjun and Li Wenli couldn’t accept it.
It was too much like child stealing.
Shopkeeper Yan felt guilty, "I had no choice."
Firstly, the Fool got along well with them, so if she asked him to leave with her, he surely wouldn’t want to.
Moreover, if she were to suddenly acknowledge the Fool, her identity would inevitably be exposed, which wasn’t what she wanted.
Last but not least, she didn’t know Bai Junjun and her group’s intentions, but given their abilities and talents, they would sooner or later attract the Princes’ attention. What then, if they recognized the Fool?
Therefore, before danger came for the Fool, she had to eliminate all the safety hazards.
She just didn’t expect Bai Junjun and her group to be so sharp, managing to follow the trail and find her in just one morning.
"To tell you the truth, I am very curious, why did you suspect me?"
Bai Junjun glanced at her, "Shopkeeper Yan typically would come to our courtyard no matter what happened, but today, when the Fool has gone missing and the entire city is out searching for him, the usually sociable Shopkeeper Yan is nowhere to be seen. How strange is that?"
Hearing this, Shopkeeper Yan shook his head helplessly, "So, this is where I revealed a flaw."
Bai Junjun touched her head and didn’t speak again. In fact, this was only one of the flaws. Theoretically speaking, she and Li Wenli were not stupid, and an ordinary Trick Spell couldn’t possibly succeed against them.
It was only then that Shopkeeper Yan stood up leisurely and led them inside.
Unexpectedly, this small courtyard turned out to have several other courtyards, which couldn’t be seen from outside, indicating that the courtyard was actually very deep.
The two followed Shopkeeper Yan to a room at the very back.
There were two guards standing outside the room, who bowed and opened the door for them upon seeing Shopkeeper Yan approach.
Inside, the Fool was quietly sleeping on the bed, his hair spread out, the seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth possessing a trace of delicate beauty.
However, Bai Junjun keenly smelled blood and couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
"Why is there a smell of blood?"
Shopkeeper Yan glanced at them, silently walked over to the Fool’s bedside, sat down, wet a cloth, and wiped the Fool’s sweat, saying, "Ah Fei has a secret technique for sealing memory. As long as silver needles seal his acupoints, he will become like a three-year-old child."
Bai Junjun immediately understood that the Fool’s idiocy was not due to illness but was artificially induced.
Thinking back, she had once used her Special Ability to check the Fool’s body. At that time, she indeed found that several of his acupoints were blocked, which she now suspected were places where the silver needles had been inserted.
Back then, they were in a hurry, and Bai Junjun had thought the Fool had suffered a hit causing a cranial contusion, assuming it would fade over time, but she had never considered the silver needles.
"Now, with the silver needles removed, after a few days of rest, the Fool will return to normal," said Shopkeeper Yan with a smile.
