Chapter 455 - 457: Coming to the Door
Shao He had never expected that someone would really dare to lay hands on Pei Huaian, given his exceptional status and the fact that the case had not yet been fully investigated.
Yet the reality made her feel she had miscalculated, as these people not only ignored his status but went to even greater extremes in their torture because of it.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."
Shao He blew on the wound where she had applied medicine and said with determination, "Just wait a little longer, the truth will soon come to light and your innocence will be restored, and then none of these people will escape."
"Was there any discovery on Shao Mingyang’s corpse?"
Pei Huaian knew they would certainly not sit idly by, and the only clue they could possibly find lay with that corpse, hence his question.
Shao He held nothing back as she reported her findings and even handed that piece of Gold Thread to Pei Huaian.
"This looks somewhat familiar?" Pei Huaian murmured to himself, as though he had seen it somewhere before.
"This kind of thing is quite common, especially on the scented sachets of ladies. To seek the truth through this clue might prove quite difficult," Pei Hanze said slowly as he leaned against the cell door.
Shao He also understood this reasoning, but they were currently in a passive position, seemingly under surveillance at all times, and Pei Huaian could not wait any longer.
If Pei Chengye dared allow others to do this, who knew what more malicious tactics they would use against Pei Huaian next.
