Chapter 71 There are lovers in the world
Jin Mu replied in a deep voice: "Found it."
After he finished speaking, his expression changed and he continued.
"However, the person is gone."
Shen Yu raised his eyebrows, "What does it mean to be dead?"
Kaneki answered bravely, "That old woman was also a ruthless character. As soon as our people showed up, she bit her tongue and committed suicide without leaving any way for herself to survive."
"It's as if...as if she knew someone would look for her and she would die."
Shen Yu's face was gloomy, and after thinking for a moment, he asked again: "The person is dead, but her things are still there, can you find anything useful?"
Kaneki nodded quickly and ordered someone to bring in the found things.
There are two boxes in total, a large box half a person's height and a small box one foot long and wide.
Kaneki opened the big box. It was full of tools used for tomb robbing, some were new, some were used, and there was still a little mud on the edges.
When Shen Yu saw this, his expression suddenly changed.
Wen Wan didn't hear the sound for a while, "What's in the box? Why didn't you talk?"
Shen Yu said coldly: "The boxes are full of tools for tomb robbing."
Wen Wan quickly thought of something and was shocked: "She is also looking for the ancient tomb?"
Shen Yu hummed, this was also where he was confused.
Very few people know about ancient tombs, and this old woman can actually rob tombs. Is this really just a coincidence?
"Open the small box as well." Shen Yu ordered.
Kaneki took the order and stepped forward to open the small box.
The small box contains some jewelry for women.
Shen Yu could tell at a glance that these things were not something ordinary people could have, but they seemed to come from Ouchi.
His pupils shrank, he picked up a fish-shaped jade pendant and looked at it carefully.
"Chen Yuanshi also found a piece of this jade pendant on his body."
Wen Wan was startled and exclaimed: "A token of love?"
Fish-shaped jade pendants were a popular token of love in the Imperial Capital. When she was in the backyard of the General's Mansion, she often heard the little sisters talking about the gifted men and beautiful women giving each other fish-shaped jade pendants when they were in love.
Shen Yu glanced at her and said, "You know a lot."
Wen Wan: "...Now is the time to talk about this?"
Shen Yu looked away and frowned: "Doctor Chen has never married. Now it seems that this old woman should be his lover."
This was the first time Wen Wan saw such a lover in this era, and she couldn't help but sigh.
"I didn't expect Dr. Chen to be so infatuated that he would be willing to remain unmarried for a woman for the rest of his life."
The admiration and yearning on her face made Shen Yu couldn't help but take a second look.
So, does she actually like such an infatuated man?
Shen Yu frowned and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something. Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he saw a black object exposed under a beaded hairpin.
His expression changed drastically, he picked up the object and looked at it, and said in a deep voice:
"It's really no coincidence that she hid these tomb robbing tools."
Wen Wan couldn't see anything and heard something wrong in his voice, so she asked eagerly: "What's wrong?"
Shen Yu put the part into her hand, "Take a look at this."
It's cold to the touch, feels like metal, and has edges and corners, very similar to the crossbow parts found in the tomb last time.
Wen Wan pursed her lips and her expression became serious.
"This is... something from the ancient tomb."
Shen Yu: "Yes. So, she is also looking for what we are looking for."
And whose person is she?
Why did Chen Yuanshi want to meet her?
Yuan Chen has a special status. What does he have to do with this matter?
Things seem to be getting tougher.

The bright moon hangs in the sky, and for some reason, the night tonight has a desolate look.
After dinner, Shen Yu used to take Wen Wan for a walk in the yard to eat.
Perhaps the matter between Chen Yuanshi and the old woman was full of doubts. The two of them walked for most of the courtyard without even speaking.
Wen Wan grabbed Shen Yu's long sleeve and followed slowly. She didn't know what she kicked, and stumbled forward.
Shen Yu quickly held her up and said, "Be careful."
Wen Wan curled her lips, "I'm blind, and I can't see. It's you who has to take me out to eat every day." "You didn't want me to hold hands. You insisted on saying something about the protection of men and women, so you gave me a piece of clothing. , can I not fall? ”
She complained fiercely and looked very angry.
Shen Yu's eyes fell on the jade staff she held in her left hand, without revealing her little thoughts.
Obviously besides the sleeves, she also has a jade staff, but she doesn't use it herself.
"Achai! Did you listen to me?"
Wen Wan shook his arm, "I can't see your expression, you speak."
Shen Yu was helpless, hesitated, spread his fingers and slowly approached her hand.
Wen Wan felt a warmth in her palm, and then a big hand wrapped around hers.
"Is this okay?"
She raised the corners of her mouth, and her complaints were instantly cleared, and her eyes were filled with a smile of successful plot.
Wen Wan nodded cheerfully, "I'm not taking advantage of you. I'm a disabled person. It's better to hold hands and walk more safely."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Ha," Shen Yu chuckled and raised his hand to hit her forehead.
He didn't exert any force and it didn't hurt at all, so Wen Wan didn't care.
She was like a child, holding his hand and swaying it back and forth, seemingly content.
After a while, she asked: "By the way, what about the funeral of that grandma?"
Shen Yu: "The neighbors around her say that she is withdrawn and never interacts with others, so she is also a loner."
Wen Wan: "Uh... how about burying her and Dr. Chen together."
Shen Yu was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Okay."
We can't share the same fur in life, but we can share the same point in death. It can be regarded as making up for the regrets in this life.
Wen Wan thought so, her eyes gradually dimmed.
When Shen Yu saw it, he stopped and touched her head.
"What are you thinking about?"
Wen Wan: "I was thinking, since Dr. Chen and Grandma love each other, why can't they be together? This world seems to be too harsh on lovers."
Apart from feelings, there always seems to be too much involved between people.
Just like Achai, she could feel that he seemed to like her twice even though he was right in front of her.
But even so, he never made any promise to her.
She knows that's because...
He can't afford it.
Wen Wan's fingertips trembled and she slowly let go of his hand.
Shen Yu was slightly confused.
Wen Wan smiled heartlessly and said casually: "It's almost time to digest. It's time to go back to bed."
She turned around and walked back, holding her jade staff.
Different from when she came, this time, although she walked slowly, she walked steadily.
Shen Yu's eyes fell on her back, his expression dark and unreadable.
She was the one who wanted to hold hands, and she was the first to let go.
"Wait."
Shen Yu quickly chased after her, and before she could react, he directly hugged her sideways.
Wen Wan was caught off guard and her body flew into the air, and she couldn't help but scream.
"What do you do?"
"I'm afraid you'll fall again."
Afraid of her falling, so the princess hugs her?
Is he sure it's not an excuse to hug him?
Don't you tell her about the defense between men and women now?
