146 Chapter hundred and forty-six: Matters arising

The night the emperor was shot with an arrow, the fiery arrows were in alliance with secret underground trustworthy men they trained to expand their base. They weren't exactly the core assassins but their significance were really usable. That night, secretly deployed, every nook and cranny were placed under surveillance as they had orders to capture the assassin who hurt the emperor. On guard twenty-four hourly for weeks, no sign of the enemy was found, not even a tiniest clue of his whereabout was discovered. While Yoona knew of his identity and his status of being mortally wounded by her poisonous needles, she like others was oblivious of his escape route or who could have helped him.

Yoona fell into contemplation as every dots seemed to have correlation and every unanswered question an explanation.

Jae Joon, her right-hand man who seemed to be psychically connected to her soul stood behind her from who knows where.
