"The leader of the Broken Blade Sect seems to use a broken sword. Although it is not a scimitar, he used to be a thief before joining the Broken Blade Sect, and he was a famous thief at that." Zhan Zhao reminded.

"How do you know?" Bai Yutang was puzzled.

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, "Have you forgotten who I am? Of course I have a source of gossip."

Bai Yutang frowned, "If it was the leader of the Broken Blade Sect who stole Master's scimitar, and the man in white wiped them out, it would be normal for Dao Xingfeng to suspect me."

"Dao Xingfeng seems to want to seek revenge on you, but he didn't expect Lord Bao to find out the truth about the destruction of the Broken Blade Sect." Zhan Zhao said, "And the person who destroyed the Broken Blade Sect was definitely not him, so the Broken Blade should have been lost as well."

"Dao Xingfeng couldn't find the broken sword so he thought I took it away on the orders of my master." Bai Yutang thought it made sense.

"If someone killed the entire Broken Blade Sect and framed them, then the scimitar should be in his hand." Zhan Zhao felt a little tired, so he leaned back on the bed, patted his side, motioned for Bai Yutang to sit down, and analyzed, "But since we already have the two knives, why did they ask you and Dao Xingfeng to come out? Is there a third knife?"

Bai Yutang sat down next to Zhan Zhao, reached out and pulled a soft pillow to lean on behind his head, "Besides the knife, there may be something else."

"what is it then?"

"Have no idea."

"Think again."

"Um."

The next day, around noon, Gongsun woke up, stretched, sat up, and rubbed his aching shoulders. He saw Xiao Sizi, who had woken up at some point, lying beside him with a pouting mouth, his chin supported by his hands, and his feet crossed, in a daze.

"Why are you barefoot? Be careful of stomachache." Gongsun grabbed one of Xiao Sizi's feet and looked at it. He found that the place where it was rubbed that day had scabs. He was afraid that he would scratch it because of the itch, so he got out of bed and got him some medicine to apply while putting socks on him. "When did you wake up?"

"Just now." Little Sizi rolled over and rubbed against Gongsun, "Daddy, when did we return to the room?"

"It's almost dawn, Zhao Pu brought you back." Gongsun got up, changed his clothes and combed his hair.

"Jiujiu is so strong." Little Four cleaned up first. While Gongsun was washing himself, the little guy was chattering beside his legs.

Gongsun glanced at him and said, "Daddy is also very strong."

Xiao Sizi made a face, which meant - that's weird.

"Dad, did you find the murderer yesterday?"

"No." Gongsun changed his clothes, took Xiao Sizi's hand and went out to find something to eat.

When he arrived at the courtyard, he ran into Zhao Pu, who was yawning and rubbing his neck, and Ouyang Shaozheng, who was stretching lazily behind him.

"Are you up, sir?" Ouyang Shaozheng greeted Gongsun.

Gongsun nodded, and Xiao Sizi rushed over and hugged Zhao Pu's legs and shouted, "Jiujiu, good morning!"

Zhao Pu reached out his hand and gently lifted him up, throwing him into the air and catching him again, "Morning, little Sizi."

Xiao Sizi smiled so hard that his dimples appeared on his face. He asked Zhao Pu, "Are we going to eat?"
