“If you don’t have a try, how do you know that you can’t see?”
Shi Qingxue smiled slyly and continued to close the door.
Did she think that she was the colorful phenix and could shine?
Before Mo Junyu showed the speechless expression on his face, something magic happened.
As soon as Shi Qingxue closed the door, all people felt it was dark indeed, but in the blink of an eye, a beam of bright light came from a little hole in a corner and fell on the floor of the corner.
The light’s diameter was no more than 1 or 1.5 meters, but because of the bright sun at noon, it was enough to make people roughly tell the direction in the darkness.
“How, how can this happen?” Mo Junyu stuttered.
This room was arranged by him as the feeder asked. It should be kept away from light, in case that the colorful phenix was scared.
But it could be seen that no matter the door was opened or closed, the light in the room would never be less. Could it be that the colorful phenix…
“No. The colorful phenix was poisoned to death,”
Shi Qingxue explained as she noticed Mo Junyu’s doubt at a glance.
Mo Junyu didn’t believe her and pointed at the hole in the corner. “How would you explain it?”
Shi Qingxue shrugged. “I have to say that the colorful phenix didn’t fear the sunshine as much as we imagined. I have read the chapter of The Colorful Phenix in the book About the Qin Continent. It is recorded in it that the colorful phenix likes to be in darkness and lives in the deep of the forest where there is no sunshine all year round, but it doesn’t mention that the colorful phenix can’t see any light, and…”
She suddenly stopped when she was about to talk about the crucial part.
Mo Junyu turned to her and urged, “And what? Why don’t you continue?”
“Nothing. The following words recorded have nothing to do with this matter. But we can know that the colorful phenix didn’t die because of this light. However, this light might be helpful to something.” Shi Qingxue pursed her lips and focused her eyes on the track of the light.
Mo Junyu still didn’t understand. “Since you said that the colorful phenix didn’t die because of the light, why did you say that its death had something to do with the light?”
“Haven’t you found that the light’s location is weird?” Shi Qingxue blinked and reminded wickedly.
Mo Junyu walked to the location where the light fell and then looked at the place where the bird cage was, feeling more confused. “The two places are about six meters away. No matter how it diffuses, the light can’t affect the colorful phenix, right?”
Could it work from another space?
Shi Qingxue laughed and then waved Xia Mang over, whispering in her ear, “Xia Mang, put this…”
Mo Junyu saw Xia Mang receiving something from Shi Qingxue, but he didn’t see clearly what it was because of the angle at which he stood.
Considering his identity, he disdained to ask.
He had to restrain his curiosity and stared at the two girls.
He wanted to see what they could do.
Xia Mang took the stuff and jumped up to the beam, flying over quickly. She didn’t stop on the beam and moved rapidly, as if she wanted to show her flying skills.
Mo Junyu opened his eyes wide and felt more suspicious.
He indistinctly noticed that the roof Xia Mang passed was the place that he mentioned where a sign was left but there was nothing.
He saw that something seemed to be put on it, but it was too dark in the room, and he couldn’t see what it was.
Then Xia Mang walked to him and bowed. “Your Highness, please step aside. I need to put something on the place where you stand.”
Mo Junyu raised his brows and didn’t speak but made way for Xia Mang.
Xia Mang stood where Mo Junyu had been just now, and the light shone her face. She moved a step backward and let the light fall on her chest. Then she turned to Shi Qingxue.
Shi Qingxue shook her head and waved at Xia Mang. “Back up. Let the light shine your feet.”
After doing as Shi Qingxue told her, Xia Mang looked at her again and took out something from her pocket after Shi Qingxue nodded.
Mo Junyu was confused by the two girls’ mysterious behavior. He couldn’t control himself and asked, “What on earth are you going to do?”
Shi Qingxue smiled and kept him in suspense. “Your Highness, keep calm. You will know later.”
Xia Mang took out a round copper mirror this time.
She put the copper mirror on where she stood.
Then she made it stand.
The light from the corner of the eave happened to fall on the surface of the copper mirror.
After she adjusted the angle, the light then reflected the beam.
It happened to fall on where Xia Mang had touched.
Something magic happened in an instant.
After the light met somewhere on the eave, it reflected once more and happened to shine the place where the bird cage was.
If Mo Junyu remembered correctly, it shone the bamboo tube which contained the spring water for the colorful phenix to drink.
Mo Junyu’s eyes widened like the dead fish’s, and he was so surprised that he couldn’t speak a word.
“How can it happen?” He could hardly believe what he had seen.
It was just a beam of light far away from the bird cage and was supposed to have nothing to do with it.
After reflecting twice, it happened to fall on the bird cage.
“So the colorful phenix was killed by this light!” Mo Junyu almost shouted excitedly.
He finally found the murderer’s way to kill the colorful phenix, and the evidence was ready.
Because he remembered who had stood where Xia Mang was.
Shi Qingxue hurriedly interrupted Mo Junyu’s imagination and reminded again, “Your Highness, I have said that the colorful phenix likes to be in darkness, but it doesn’t mean that it would die under light. It was poisoned to death.
“And the clues we have got are not enough to prove who arranged everything. After all… there is no mirror in this room, right?”
Hearing that, Mo Junyu was deflated.
Shi Qingxue was right. Even if he went to tell Mo Xiangbin about his discovery, the latter might not believe him.
He didn’t have any presentable evidence. And he couldn’t deduce who the murderer was because there was a sign that somebody touched the beam or somebody had stood at a place.
Mo Junyu really got anxious and scratched his hair fretfully regardless of his dignity, asking Shi Qingxue, “If these are useless, why did we work for so long? It was just a waste of time!”
Shi Qingxue was speechless.
She and Xia Mang were the only two people who worked all the time. Why did Mo Junyu think that he was working, too?
“I came here just to confirm the murderer’s way to kill the colorful phenix, and now I have found it.”
Mo Junyu showed the expressions that he knew it. “From the beginning, I said that somebody killed the colorful phenix with this light, but you insisted that it was poisoned to death.”
Shi Qingxue didn’t know how to explain to him about the simple reason that the light couldn’t kill the bird.
She sighed and explained from the start patiently, “Doctor Shen has found the residual poison in the bamboo tube in the bird cage, but because the poison would work easily, if it had been put in the bamboo tube early, the colorful phenix would have been poisoned earlier. Then he guessed that somebody put the poison in the spring water you had prepared at the birthday party…”
“No way. Every time I prepared the spring water for the colorful phenix, I would taste it first.” Mo Junyu denied this conjecture.
Shi Qingxue also nodded and expressed approvingly, “Right. It means that the poison could only be put in the bamboo tube and then be mixed with the water. After drinking it, the colorful phenix was poisoned.”
Mo Junyu retorted again, “But didn’t you say that the poison worked soon and if it had been put in the bamboo tube, the colorful phenix would have been poisoned earlier?”
“Right!” Shi Qingxue nodded once more.
Mo Junyu felt that he was puzzled by Qingxue. Why did she nod no matter what he said?
“So how did the colorful phenix die?”
Shi Qingxue smiled and gave Mo Junyu a small square towel. “Smell it first. Can you guess what it is?”
Mo Junyu did as she asked him and smelt it. Then he turned away in an instant.
He covered his nose in disgust. “What is this? It smells like a bad egg?”
“Sulphur and white phosphorus.” Shi Qingxue revealed the answer.
Seeing that Mo Junyu was still perplexed, she explained in detail, “Doctor Shen found the remains of these two materials in the water, and they can burn easily at the ordinary temperature, so it’s likely that somebody put the poison covered with the two materials at the bottom of the bamboo tube.
“Because they won’t melt in water, and the poison won’t be mixed with water, the colorful phenix won’t be poisoned after drinking such water. But with the light, the heat gathered at the bottom of the bamboo tube and the temperature rose…”
Before Shi Qingxue finished her words, Mo Junyu understood. “After the two materials burnt, the poison came out, so the colorful phenix was poisoned after drinking the water. But who figured out such a vicious way?”
It was so complicated. Once they neglected a detail, they might not find the truth.
Shi Qingxue pondered for a while and then reminded vaguely, “If somebody wanted to kill the colorful phenix in this way, there must be several preconditions. First, he had a chance to get close to the bamboo tube from the beginning. Second, he can enter this room freely. Third…”
She didn’t continue but looked at the floor where the mirror was.
The mirror on the roof could be taken away afterward, but the mirror on the floor must be taken away on the spot. Otherwise it could be found immediately.
Mo Junyu’s eyes darkened and anger was shown on his face, but he restrained it soon.
He had one more question. “Even if everything was Junjiu’s plan, how could he figure out accurately how we would arrange the colorful phenix’s residence?”
Shi Qingxue lowered her head and replied casually, “He didn’t need to guess as long as you did according to his plan.”
“You are joking. How would I listen to him?” Mo Junyu sneered and thought what Shi Qingxue said was impossible.
He added solemnly, “I have no experience in feeding the colorful phenix, so I did everything as the feeder asked…”
Mo Junyu turned pale all of a sudden and stopped speaking. He didn’t need to say the following words.
The so-called feeder was Mo Junjiu’s man.
Mo Junyu’s expression changed continuously and then he fell into silence.
Shi Qingxue had to change the subject. “Next, let’s go to King Rui’s mansion to have a look.”
Mo Junyu didn’t understand. “We have confirmed the cause of the colorful phenix’s death. Why are we going to King Rui’s mansion?”
Shi Qingxue pointed to the imperial decree and the paper in his hands and laughed complacently. “Next we should test if the holy bird colorful phenix is really so magical that it can tell the life and death.”
Mo Junyu’s eyes lit up again at once and he stated in a hurry, “Right. Why haven’t I thought about it? You just proved that the murderer had met the colorful phenix before he killed it, so the phenix must have recorded what he looks like.”
Shi Qingxue smiled and kept silent to agree.
When they reached King Rui’s mansion, Mo Junyang had arranged the place to test. Obviously, he had expected their arrival.
But when he found Shi Qingxue, he was stunned evidently.
Shi Qingxue pretended that she didn’t notice Mo Junyang’s emotional change and explained why she was here. And she simply told him about her test in the East Palace.
While listening, Mo Junyang frowned more.
He interrupted Shi Qingxue with displeasure. “This matter has nothing to do with you. Just go back home first.”
It was awkward on the site.
Mo Junyang kicked Qingxue out?
Nobody knew why Mo Junyang who always listened to Shi Qingxue and was gentle to her only would say something like this.
He even spoke in disgust obviously.
Everyone present couldn’t accept it.
Xia Mang looked at Shi Qingxue worriedly, afraid that her lady would lose temper as a result.
“My lady,” Xia Mang called cautiously in a hurry as she saw that Shi Qingxue’s face darkened.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
“If you don’t have a try, how do you know that you can’t see?”
Shi Qingxue smiled slyly and continued to close the door.

Otherwise it could be found immediately.Mo Junyu's eyes darkened and anger was shown on his face, but he restrained it soon.He had one more question. Even if everything was Junjiu's plan, how could he figure out accurately how we would arrange the colorful phenix's residence?Shi Qingxue lowered her head and replied casually, He didn't need to guess as long as you did according to his plan.You are joking. How would I listen to him? Mo Junyu sneered and thought what Shi Qingxue said was impossible.He added solemnly, I have no experience in feeding the colorful phenix, so I did everything as the feeder askedMo Junyu turned pale all of a sudden and stopped speaking. He didn't need to say the following words.The so-called feeder was Mo Junjiu's man.Mo Junyu's expression changed continuously and then he fell into silence.Shi Qingxue had to change the subject. Next, let's go to King Rui's mansion to have a look.Mo Junyu didn't understand. We have confirmed the cause of the colorful phenix's death. Why are we going to King Rui's mansion?Shi Qingxue pointed to the imperial decree and the paper in his hands and laughed complacently. Next we should test if the holy bird colorful phenix is really so magical that it can tell the life and death.Mo Junyu's eyes lit up again at once and he stated in a hurry, Right. Why haven't I thought about it? You just proved that the murderer had met the colorful phenix before he killed it, so the phenix must have recorded what he looks like.Shi Qingxue smiled and kept silent to agree.When they reached King Rui's mansion, Mo Junyang had arranged the place to test. Obviously, he had expected their arrival.But when he found Shi Qingxue, he was stunned evidently.Shi Qingxue pretended that she didn't notice Mo Junyang's emotional change and explained why she was here. And she simply told him about her test in the East Palace.While listening, Mo Junyang frowned more.He interrupted Shi Qingxue with displeasure. This matter has nothing to do with you. Just go back home first.It was awkward on the site.Mo Junyang kicked Qingxue out?Nobody knew why Mo Junyang who always listened to Shi Qingxue and was gentle to her only would say something like this.He even spoke in disgust obviously.Everyone present couldn't accept it.Xia Mang looked at Shi Qingxue worriedly, afraid that her lady would lose temper as a result.My lady, Xia Mang called cautiously in a hurry as she saw that Shi Qingxue's face darkened.
