Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback

Chapter 469: Suspects (Part 2)



This speculation made Fang Yuxin extremely angry. Shang Jinxiu had always been kind to others, yet now she had died innocently due to some people's greed. Those people, whoever they were, all deserved to die!

After estimating the location of Shang Jinxiu based on the timeline, Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye set off again. However, this time only the two of them went; Fang Yuyang stayed behind at Hope Base to help with some matters, while Bai Qianqian was left with Qu Qianhe and Shui Rou. He had been away from home for a year, and the two missed him dearly, unwilling to let him leave.

Fortunately, Bai Qianqian considered himself a little man already, no longer clinging to Fang Yuxin as he did before, afraid she would disappear. Being left at Hope Base this time, he didn't mind at all; instead, he confidently said to Fang Yuxin, "Mom, you can go without worry. I will take good care of Grandpa, Grandma, and Granddad and Nana!" As he spoke, he even patted his chest solemnly.

Fang Yuxin wasn't worried about any trouble at home. Over the past year, Bai Zhengli was about to advance to Late-stage Foundation Establishment. Qu Qianhe and Fang Jintang had, not long ago, advanced to Late-stage Foundation Establishment, with only Shui Rou starting her cultivation late, now just entering Foundation Establishment.

With Fang Yuyang around, she had no concern about trouble at home. Not to mention that nobody at Hope Base could be a match for Fang Yuyang; even if an Advanced zombie did appear, she believed Fang Yuyang could handle it.

Due to Shang Jinxiu being murdered and to prevent the culprit from escaping, Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye didn't delay too long at home and hurriedly set off for the estimated location. Based on the caravan's route and departure time, they had roughly calculated a range, and without any unexpected events, they should quickly find the caravan.

The estimated range was in Shu, though the area wasn't small. However, with Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye now both at the Peak of Foundation Establishment Late Stage, just a step away from forming a Golden Core, finding the caravan here would be a piece of cake!

Both Angela and Bai Er had very fast speeds now, and with Fang Yuxin's special use of the Gale Talisman, the group of two people and two beasts took only one day to travel from Hope Base to Shu. They followed the caravan's route and, after inquiring at a nearby base, soon found the caravan.

At the time of Shang Jinxiu's death, the caravan was at Jin City Base. Because of her disappearance, the caravan had to halt temporarily, trying various ways to look for her whereabouts. The only relief was that the Caravan Captain was very cautious. Since Shang Jinxiu had to go out, the goods in her Personal Space had been taken out and placed in a room. Besides Shang Jinxiu's disappearance, the caravan suffered no other losses.

When Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye arrived, the entire caravan was already somewhat panic-stricken. They all speculated that something had happened to Shang Jinxiu. After all, Shang Jinxiu had been with the caravan for quite a while and had never had any incidents before; everyone trusted her character. This time, she didn't take the goods with her, so there was no possibility of her running away, which could only mean she was assassinated.

Seeing Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye took them by surprise—no one expected Shang Jinxiu's death to bring these two out! Seeing their faces dark, the people couldn't help but feel a strange sense—whoever was behind this wouldn't get away with it!

The Caravan Captain warmly approached, but before he could speak, Fang Yuxin raised her hand to stop him and directly asked, "The reason we are here, I suppose you all know by now. Time is pressing, so let's skip the pleasantries. You stayed here, so you must have investigated, right? Now tell me, was there anything unusual before and after Shang Jinxiu left? Or do you have any suspects in mind?"

Fang Yuxin guessed correctly. After Shang Jinxiu's incident, the caravan indeed conducted an investigation. After all, Shang Jinxiu was a rare and valuable Space superpower user and had a very good relationship with Qu Qianhe, so even without considering her superpower identity, given her relationship with Qu Qianhe, they couldn't just do nothing after she died!

Upon hearing Fang Yuxin's question, everyone in the caravan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was a good thing they had investigated; otherwise, if Fang Yuxin asked questions they couldn't answer, they might have faced Fang Yuxin's wrath! Although Fang Yuxin was a Wood Element Superpower User, having witnessed her capabilities, no one at Hope Base dared underestimate her!
