Help The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama (by Lotus Seeds) novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119: Chapter 113: Finding the Killer

Shen Tang’s heart was pounding with fear.

If she were an ordinary person without the protection of a Beast Husband, she would have been dead long ago!

Shen Li’s brows furrowed tightly, "I don’t think this was an accident."

Even Xiao Jin noticed something was amiss, "You’ve been inspecting the fields frequently these days, and this road is almost your daily route. If someone deliberately set a trap on this road in advance, it makes sense."

Shen Tang was taken aback, "Is this a trap set deliberately by someone?"

Strange, weren’t those Beastmen who wanted to harm her already imprisoned? Could there be one who slipped through the net?

Shen Li calmly said, "We can only say it’s a suspicion, not yet fully confirmed, but if someone really wants to harm you, having failed this time, they will surely take further measures."

Xiao Jin’s expression was cold and somber, "Be careful during this period. It’s best to have someone accompany you every time you go out."

After speaking, he promptly volunteered, "I think I’m quite suitable. In other aspects, I may be somewhat inferior to this dead fox, but in terms of reflexes, this dead fox raised with luxury in the Imperial Palace can’t compare to me. Keeping him by your side is useless, it’s better to let me follow you!"

Shen Li glanced at Xiao Jin lightly without rebutting, the leopard was speaking the truth.

This Xiao Jin was straightforward, yet he truly was an outstanding warrior honed from hundreds of battles; in terms of reflexes and combat skills, few could surpass him, he was unbeatable among his peers.

Shen Tang was reluctant to imagine the situation being too dire and preferred to believe today’s incident was coincidental, but the ensuing days’ experiences left her no room for luck.

Once, Shen Tang went to the market intending to buy some things and almost got hit by a loosening cement board from upstairs.

This sudden crisis was so abrupt that even the system could not timely alert her.

Even if the system had warned her beforehand, she would have struggled to dodge it.

If not for Xiao Jin accompanying her that day, Shen Tang would have lost her life.

The City Lord, upon hearing the news, personally led an investigation but found nothing.

The results were merely an accident due to building aging, and she happened to encounter it.

Shen Tang couldn’t believe such "coincidences" could happen this many times!

There’s definitely someone plotting against her in the dark!

This time, the culprits were much more astute and cunning in their methods.

They did not confront her directly, instead laying traps covertly.

They could fail numerous times, but succeed just once at taking her life.

For several consecutive days, Shen Tang lived anxiously.

This cannot continue!

The culprit must be swiftly captured and brought to justice.

Shen Li softly suggested, "Xiao Tang’er, you won’t get a cub without entering the tiger’s den. Those people are very cautious, you might need to deliberately show some flaws to bait them in."

"...I understand." Shen Tang, after some contemplation, devised a plan.

There was a restaurant in Greenfield City that has been thriving for quite a while.

It seems insignificant to Xiao Jin and his cohorts, who are accustomed to delicious dishes, but to most of the city’s Beastmen, it was an unmatched delicacy. Those with spare coins would frequently visit to improve their meals, mainly females and cubs.

Shen Tang appeared to have grown fond of this restaurant’s dishes in recent days, often bringing Ah Mang and the others there for meals.

Previously, they could only curl up with rags in corners and bushes to sleep; each winter, a few would freeze to death. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
