Chapter 59 He is just himself (Part )
Someone similar to him...

Aren’t the other victims in this case all similar to him?
Su Liuyue immediately made the decision and said, "Go check right now to see how many ghost markets there are around here! Mr. Feng, Mr. Sun, go right now to the place where Zhou Hao's father said he saw Zhou Hao on the donkey cart. If that driver has been doing the work of a soldier for a long time, he will definitely show up again!"

The murderer who killed those five soldiers must be in that ghost market!

Zhou Yunke suddenly stood up and said, "There are two ghost markets nearby. One of them is quite far from here. The one Zhou Hao and his friends will go to should be the one that is closer to here.

But just in case, we still need to send someone to investigate the ghost market a little further away."

After a pause, he said calmly: "It's getting dark now, I'll go with you."

Su Liuyue glanced at him, nodded and said, "If Your Highness is free, that would be the best."

No one is more familiar with the situation around here than Zhou Yunke.

After the others accepted the task, they all went out one after another, leaving Zhou Yunke and Su Liuyue alone in the tent.

Just when Su Liuyue was thinking about whether to wait outside, the man not far away suddenly said, "It's almost time for dinner. If you don't mind, you can have dinner in the camp before leaving."

Su Liuyue was slightly stunned. She had come out early in the morning today and had eaten a few pieces of pastries she brought with her at noon. She was indeed hungry.

The feeling of working under the prince was extraordinary. She never thought that one day she would also eat from the big pot in the army.

She nodded and asked politely, "Your Highness, don't you want to eat?"

Zhou Yunke glanced at her calmly and said, "I won't eat with others. Someone will bring the meal to me."

Su Liuyue: “…”

Well, she was inexperienced. Did she still expect Zhou Yunke to eat from the same pot with other soldiers?
She coughed lightly, said nothing more, and went to eat.

When she came back from dinner, it was completely dark. After dark, the ghost market began.

When Su Liuyue returned to Zhou Yunke's tent, he had already changed into a dark-colored uniform embroidered with egret patterns that was more suitable for going out. He looked heroic, cool and handsome. He was the kind of man who would attract countless women's attention if he walked on the street.

Su Liuyue glanced at him calmly and said, "If your highness is ready, then let's go."

Zhou Yunke was slightly stunned, and keenly noticed that the woman in front of him was in a strange mood.

Although she would not be too enthusiastic when facing him, she had never seen such a cold look as now even with her eyelids.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "But the food in the army is not delicious?"

Su Liuyue said, "How could that be? Your Highness cares about his soldiers. It is said that the chef in the army was specially hired by Your Highness. The food is naturally very delicious."

Zhou Yunke couldn't help but stare at her for a while, unable to figure out what this woman was thinking.

Finally, he raised his hand and said, "You go out first, I'll be out in a moment."

Su Liuyue responded immediately, and as soon as she left, Zhou Yunke looked at Feng Yang indifferently.

Just now, Feng Yang took Su Liuyue to have a meal.

Feng Yang had been with Zhou Yunke for so long, so he knew what his master meant by this look, so he quickly bowed and said, "Your Highness, Young Master Su was in high spirits when he went to the dining hall just now, and he was chatting and laughing with other soldiers.

However, when she heard a soldier say that he saw a box of completely unused cakes in the garbage thrown out by the prince yesterday, and wanted to pick it up to taste it, but later he didn't have the courage, Su Xiaolangjun's mood obviously became bad. "Zhou Yunke was slightly stunned, his head was a little painful, and he took a breath and said, "Why did that box of cake appear in the garbage I threw out?"

Feng Yang was stunned, and said stupidly: "Before leaving yesterday, didn't your highness ask me to deal with the snacks that Su Xiaolangjun sent? I thought your highness wouldn't eat them, so dealing with them means throwing them away, right?"

Zhou Yunke: “…”

For the first time in his life, he had an indescribable feeling towards this subordinate who had always been capable.

He raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, then said calmly, "Okay, I understand."

After saying that, he strode out while Feng Yang looked confused.

On the way to the ghost market, Su Liuyue didn't say a word to Zhou Yunke.

It’s not that she was being pretentious, but she would feel a little emotional when the snacks she had worked so hard to make were thrown away like that!
She didn't expect Zhou Yunke to eat it. Even if he gave it to his subordinates, she wouldn't be so depressed.

However, this little emotion disappeared instantly after Su Liuyue saw the legendary ghost market.

This ghost market is located in a hidden forest. Walking along the way, you can see torches or lamps hanging on almost every tree. Many vendors simply spread a piece of cloth on the ground, put the things they sell on it, and sit on the ground. When they see customers coming, they will greet them warmly.

Because there is no government jurisdiction here, the things sold here are much more diverse than those in the city's markets. In addition to the common clothes, shoes, socks, pots and pans, there are also animal bones and blood, folk secret recipes, and even worse, there are people from the underworld who directly put up signs, selling information, selling their lives, and selling banned drugs. There is really nothing you can't imagine.

Although the light is dim and not as bright as the lights in the city market, it is not inferior to the bustling and prosperous city market, and it even has its own unique flavor.

When Su Liuyue was standing at the entrance of the ghost market waiting for Feng Dali and the others, she couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect there would be so many people visiting the ghost market."

"Haha, is this young man visiting the ghost market for the first time?"

An old woman selling clothes at a stall nearby suddenly grinned and said, "When someone comes to the ghost market, no one will ask about his birth, his past, or his future. He is just himself here. He can put aside all worldly affairs and do what he wants to do.

That is an experience that is impossible to have in those markets where you are watched by the big men every day."

Su Liuyue couldn't help but silently glance at Zhou Yunke who was not far away.

There is a great judge here, and he is a heavyweight.

However, this kind of place does make it easy for people to open up their hearts. The things similar to suicide notes left by the deceased were probably written here out of inspiration.

At this moment, the voices of Feng Dali and his men came from not far away, "Su Xiaolangjun, boss, this way!"

But they saw Feng Dali and a few others standing in a quiet corner not far away, waving at them desperately.

Su Liuyue and Zhou Yunke immediately walked over.

Before they got closer, Feng Dali said excitedly: "We successfully found the driver who had taken Zhou Hao before. He said that Zhou Hao had come to this ghost market every night. He also knew that Zhou Hao often went to drink at a stall owned by a boss named Huang!"

However, just as he finished speaking, several other yamen runners who had come to the ghost market in advance to gather information said, "There is indeed a stall here that sells alcohol and food owned by a boss named Huang, but... there are several such permanent stalls in this ghost market, and the one owned by the boss named Huang is just one of them.

I just showed the portraits of several deceased people to the people at the stalls. Some of them had impressions of the people in the portraits, while some had no impressions. But no one at a stall had impressions of all of them!"
