The next day.
The Marquis Gu came again to invite Mr. Songshan and Qin Yuan to the jail to act as persuaders.
Mr. Songshan clicked his tongue: "Realized it so soon?"
Next to him, Qin Yuan smiled without speaking.
The Marquis Gu was somewhat puzzled: "The jailer said Wang Zichuan was in the cell, crying and laughing, shouting he figured out why he was caught."
He looked towards Qin Yuan: "This Wang Zichuan is a bit strange, only realizing now why he was caught."
Though he didn't say it, his expression betrayed him — is the chief of Black Wind Village out of his mind?
Mr. Songshan laughed: "He had a sudden epiphany! Just like Zen Master Zhiting suddenly laughed in the middle of the night, shouting that he understood, waking up the entire monastery. The next day, the abbot asked him what he realized. Want to guess what he said?"
"What did he say?" The Marquis Gu quietly reached to hold Qin Yuan's hand, yet his face appeared sincerely eager.
