Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 82: He knew him

"He kept repeating that he has to go to the east of Maples forest. He doesn't even remember how he got here or what he was doing."

"Where is he now?" Senja asked.

"Military prison. Since he's so adamant that he can't remember anything, and since he can't give us any valuable information, he will be executed tomorrow," Xiao Tianyou sneered.

"Don't you find it strange? Why don't you investigate him further? Why are you rushing to execute him?" Senja asked question after question.

"We did everything we could to make him talk but he refused to say another word. It's just a waste of energy to keep him," He said calmly.

Senja brows creased, "What about the shadow guard?" She asked.

"Based on what I know, you managed to distract the man before he was able to stab the shadow guard again. He is alive and recuperating right now," Xiao Tianyou tried to relieve her of her concerns.

After that, the doctor came, bringing her medicine, and quickly left after handing it over to Elder Dam.

"Stop talking now and drink the medicine," Elder Dam said sternly.Initially he didn't consenttelling Senja anything, and wanted to keep her in the dark, he still assumed that he could protect her this way.However, Xiao Tianyou explained it to her willingly and he couldn't scold him right in front of her.

Senja obediently gulped down her medicine and Elder Dam fed her a bowl of chicken soup.

"Senja you were lucky that he didn't rush to attack you, if something like that ever happens again, it is better to hide yourself well," Utara shook his head helplessly. "It was a good thing that you were in the military compound this time.Thankfully, there werea lot of soldiers and shadow guards nearby that were on duty that night. They were able to come to you quickly."

"It was a good thing I screamed then, right? After all, who would have thought that there was actually someone daring enough to commit a crime here," Senja mumbled to refute Utara words.

Utara chuckled, "Alright, you are right. It wasn't a normal circumstance indeed."

Elder Dam kept feeding Senja spoonful after spoonful.

"But, based on what grandfather said, a shadow guard is a special soldier who was taught by the black sword clan and has remarkable martial arts. How could a normal soldier defeat him easily?" Senja questioned, glancing at the three people in her room.

"Stop talking about this matter. You need to rest," Elder Dam said grumpily. Senja brushed him off and glanced at Xiao Tianyou, waiting for his answer.

"I didn't hear any sound of a fight that night. How could a mere soldier launch a sneak attack at a shadow guard?" Senja probed him.

"Enough! You too, no need for further explanations!" Elder Dam reprimanded Xiao Tianyou when he just opened his mouth to answer Senja's question.

Feeling annoyed at Elder Dam, Senja retracted her gaze from Xiao Tianyou and glared fiercely ather grandfather, "Grandfather, stop trying to hide things from me! Someone was almost killed right before my eyes, right outside my window. How long do you want to keep me in the dark?" Senja voice was still a little bit hoarse, but it was full of determination.

Elder Dam and the others stood still upon hearing Senja's words. Never in their wildest imaginations,was there someone who would dare to raise their voice and talk sternly to Elder Dam.

Elder Dam was still dumbfounded by her, he didn't give any reaction other than staring at her. It felt like she was a totally different person from his gentle granddaughter, completely different from his memory of her.

Senja took a deep breath in and cupped elder Dam's right hand with both of her hands, she spoke gentler this time, "Grandfather, I know I will always have you to protect me, therefore I am brave enough to confront it," She spoke some sweet words to appease the old man.

There was complete silence after Senja said those words.Sheturned to Xiao Tianyou,seeking for an answer, "They knew each other. They lived in the same village before joining the army."

In another words, the shadow guard only thought he was meeting an old friend thus, he put his guard down. He didn't know that his old friend would suddenly attack him. After all, they were in the military compound and both of them were soldiers.
