On the return journey, there was one more person than before—Lu Zhao, who was shackled at the hands and feet.
Lu Zhao was an important witness to that case from years ago, and assassins after his life were countless along the way.
Every time they encountered an assassination attempt, Song Wei would instinctively guard a box by his side.
The box was given by Wei Baihu, and it is said that most of the time, the Jinyi Guard used it to store secret reports.
The box used the principle of the Lu Ban Lock, and it had a small mechanism inside. If the outer "password" was wrong, the contents would be shredded.
After several encounters, the assassins already had an idea—that the box Song Wei was carrying contained evidence about the coal mine case.
The news was sent back to the Capital, and after hearing it, Su Xiang frowned and asked the spy, "Could it be a trap?"
