401 An Unexpected Confession (6)

"Xuning, do you even think that it is possible? That town is so small, and you've already asked so many people. They all said that Ye Linlang's dead. I would doubt it too had one person told me so, but various people had said the same thing. It's impossible for all of them to lie to us."

Xie Xuning slid down the wall and sat on the ground limply. 

'Linlang... Linlang… Where could you possibly be?'

It wasn't necessarily the truth even if that's what everyone claims.

There's still a possibility that it's a lie…

'Linlang... Linlang... Where were you? Could you tell me what happened back then?' he mused.

"Xuning, I know that it's difficult for you to accept this, but look at it from another perspective. Close to 20 years had passed since that fateful event, and it's extremely difficult for us to uncover the truth behind what happened back then. Besides, if the ashes weren't Ye Linlang's, then whose could it be?"
