Be Gentle, My Master
Chapter 1980
Baili Xia explained her thoughts to Ye Hua, whose frown deepened.
“Xiaoxiao couldn’t have fallen down by herself; someone must have pushed her.”
Ye Hua had no doubt about Baili Xia’s speculation, “Whoever did it, once I find them, I will make sure they pay.”
Baili Xia pondered and shifted her gaze to Mu Xiaoyao.
Although the earlier incident with her Brother was not yet resolved, Xiaoxiao’s matter was the most important now.
“Brother, help me check the surveillance. I want to see who went to the back mountain.”
Mu Xiaoyao had already thought of this but had also dismissed it.
“It’s no use; there’s no surveillance system at the back mountain.”
Without surveillance, does it mean Xiaoxiao’s injury can’t be investigated?
Baili Xia’s eyes dimmed as she contemplated how to conduct the investigation.
“We can only check who might have had the chance.” On the side, Mu Xiaoyao said calmly.
“How do we check?” Baili Xia’s eyes reignited with hope.
Mu Xiaoyao lowered his gaze in thought for two seconds, then looked up and said, “I’ll find a way.”
After instructing Ye Hua to wait by the medical room door, Baili Xia followed Mu Xiaoyao to the main house.
At the Mu family, while each courtyard has its own surveillance, the videos from the roads outside are all kept at the main house.
Arriving at the main house hall, Wen Yu was sorting through a pile of documents, and Mu Xuri held one in his hand, reading.
Seeing Mu Xiaoyao and Baili Xia entering, he slowly placed the item back on the coffee table.
“Uncle.”
“Mr. Xuri.”
Mu Xuri responded with a nod, “What’s the matter?”
These two wouldn’t come to the main house for no reason.
Zimo had also gone out with Mu Lingchuan early, so they could only be looking for him.
Mu Xiaoyao said calmly, “Xiaxia’s friend had an accident at the back mountain, and I’m here to check the surveillance.”
A hint of surprise flashed across Mu Xuri’s face, “When did this happen?”
“This morning.”
“Morning?” He unconsciously glanced at Wen Yu.
Wen Yu stopped what she was doing and stood up.
“This morning, Mr. Xuri and I went to the back mountain; we didn’t see anything unusual.”
“You also went to the back mountain?”
Baili Xia blurted out in surprise, and as soon as she spoke, she realized her loss of composure.
“Yes, Wen Yu and I went for a walk there. Are you suspecting me?”
Mu Xuri’s face turned cold, “How many brothers go to the back mountain for training each day? How many people can you suspect?”
“No, we’re just trying to see through surveillance who went to the back mountain, to find some clues.”
Mu Xiaoyao gave Baili Xia a look, signaling her to remain calm.
“Besides, whether it’s deliberate or an accident, it’s hard to say.”
Mu Xuri nodded, feeling a bit more at ease.
“Since an incident happened at the Mu family, it must be thoroughly investigated.”
He looked at Wen Yu and said, “Take Xiaoyao to get all the morning’s surveillance and let him copy it to review.”
After speaking, he ignored Mu Xiaoyao and resumed reading his document.
Baili Xia thought this was fair, as Xiaoxiao was just her friend and was staying at Sihai Residence.
Even though the incident occurred at the Mu family, Mu Xuri had no obligation to intervene.
Providing surveillance for her to check was already very considerate.
However, Mu Xiaoyao secretly made up his mind that once back, he would overhaul the entire Mu family’s surveillance system himself.
In the future, the surveillance center would be set up at the Sihai Residence.
It’s not that he doesn’t trust others, but having control over matters ensures that when incidents occur, they won’t be as passive.
