Chapter 101: Too many question
Because of her shock appearance after heard Xiao Tianyao words, Elder Dam tried to comfort her "Senja, although Tianyao words little bit harsh but, he doesn't have any bad intention"
And this old man is keep misunderstanding the whole situation don't know if I have to laugh or cry.
But Senja didn't cry nor laugh. She simply smiled and back to her bed with Elder Dam was tailing her and sit on his previous chair near her bed.
Senja is really tired even for talk, so she simply ignored the unsettled old man on the chair and closing her eyes. She can easily guess by the tip of her fingers what the topic that her grandfather wanted to investigate.
The core of discussion won't be far from his prejudice against Xiao Tianyao and her sudden intimacy action, more over She was able to felt his disturbed emotion earlier. But, for now she doesn't want to talk especially the topic including Xiao Tianyao.
That guy was like a maze! Very complicated! If you daring enough to steps in you might be lost in his elusive attitude. The thing that puzzled Senja more was her inability to sense his presence. While she easily discerned emotion around her, Xiao Tianyao was the only exception.
Put that aside, there was also concern about his attitude towards her which was very questionable. He accepted her easily as 'Senja' based on similarity between them and her tattoo, without a second thought that probably she was a counterfeit, let alone questioned her further.
His reaction to concealed her involvement of last night's chaos, crystallized her assumption that there was something happened between the former Senja and him. However, that connection wasn't a good one.
Yet, if they were not in good terms why he kept her here? Why he didn't bring the truth came to light along with the undeniable evidence on hands? What he really want? He is obviously planning something. Did he have anything to do with the disappearance of the former 'Senja'?
Senja thought about these matters deeply until she dozed off.

At the study room.
Xiao Tianyao fiddled one of stables's padlocks that were scattered on the table. The padlock was as big as half of his palm made of fine steel. If someone have an intention to destroy it with sword or dagger it was almost impossible to do it without make a sound, supposed there was a sound someone must realized something was wrong at the stables.
The reality was nobody had noticed anything before the fire started. But, all the padlocks on the table including one on Xiao Tianyao hand have no indication of damages, it almost like that person has the keys.
If it has done by Senja then who was her accomplice? Just, how many traitors inside his troops?!
Thinking that he has been fooled right in front of his eyes made him growth indignant. His dark eyes turn even darker, although the sun rises outside the heat doesn't help to warm up the chill atmosphere inside the study room. All of the soldiers who present and give a report including Utara were frozen stiff by the look of Xiao Tianyao facial expression. Nobody even dare to breathe out loud because last night's chaos was something that definitely couldn't be happen!
Utara now in sorry state, cold sweat dampen his clothes and stream down from his forehead. As a lieutenant he burden much responsibility of the security of the fortress, not to mention last time incident with training fortress, that Utara failed to preserved, he hasn't yet free from his guilty conscience and now this big things happened under his surveillance.
