"She was killed!"
This fact wasn't a secret in the Kingdom of Azura.
"I heard it was soone from the Misty Cloud Clan who killed her. Is that why Xiao Tianyao's been looking into this clan's whereabouts?"
Utara nodded, "Yes, Xiao Tianyao has maintained that. But I am not sure about the details."
He walked to sit beside Senja as they continued their conversation.
"Who was the person who killed Luna?" Senja asked this out of curiosity but had hardly expected the answer to shock her to the core.
"The person is called Gong Xu." Utara said plainly. It wasn't a secret either, but this information was limited to their inner circle only.
"What!?" Senja gasped as her expression turned ghastly. "What.what's his na again?!"
"Gong Xu." Utara repeated puzzled by Senja's reaction, "You know him?" He narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
Senja abruptly shook her head. "No." But, her countenance and reaction had betrayed her.
"You knew him, right?" Utara didn't let go of the matter.
"No, his na does ring a bell though. I feel like I know that na, but actually I don't."
Utara still had his eyes on her, not believing a single word.
"His na gives the sa feeling as Yun's." Senja blurted out the only excuse she could think of right now.
Utara knew that Senja was looking for soone nad Yun and of all the things, it was the only thing she rembered.
"Perhaps Gong Xu is sohow linked to your disappearance?" Utara conjectured seriously.
Senja nodded her head in dismay. "Perhaps" She drawled. Her mind was wandering to the letters that Senja had left behind.
"But there is no telling that the Gong Xu who killed Luna is the sa Gong Xu that is in your mind." Utara eased the tensed atmosphere.
"Hmm" Senja contemplated on the likelihood.
**If Gong Xu was the sa person that the forr Senja had hid, then, it ant Senja had been hiding Luna's killer!?** This realization hit her hard. **That was why, Xiao Tianyao treated the way he did before Does he still suspect ? **
Senja's mind was spinning at Mach speed! If Xiao Tianyao could agree to get engaged with Rindy, then wouldn't he be able to do the sa to her? Had Xiao Tianyao gotten closer to Senja with an ulterior motive?
Senja was determined to enter the hidden room once again, perhaps she could find sothing there.
And that was exactly what she did.
On the following afternoon, Senja visited the library after having rejected her grandfather's invitation for lunch, yet again.
Elder Dam didn't seem to mind as he knew of Senja's fondness for the library and let her be.
Once again Senja stepped inside the hidden room. This ti, Senja braved it and closed the door behind her. She walked deeper and found out that this place was actually a tunnel that connected the Black Sword Clan Mansion to a narrow street in the town.
It exited into a deserted yard of a rundown house. After her short expedition, she retraced her steps and locked the door again. She slumped behind it, pulling her knees to her chest and held her aching head with both hands.
She tried to co to terms with things, especially with the recent complicated fact she had uncovered.
If the Gong Xu who had killed Luna was the sa person Senja had hid inside this room.. from what Xiao Jun had told her before, it was likely that the disappearance of Senja and Yun were related sohow, because both had disappeared at the sa ti...
.. if Senja could locate the other Senja then could she find Yun? But, sowhere in the midst of all this there was this guy nad Gong Xu who had killed Xiao Tianyao's wife, there was a high possibility that Senja was with him.
"This thing is only getting worse." Senja grumbled.
