Episode 44
It is indeed as you said.
This victim died because his blood was completely removed.
I really can't imagine it.
What kind of person can have such frightening power?
I don't know if you have carefully observed the corpse.
This corpse eyes were glaring at something and his mouth is wide open.
I think that after he entered the main hall,
he saw an object that caused him extreme fear.
Impossible. Liubei Palace is just a normal palace.
There are people cleaning it everyday.
For so many years, there have been no abnormalities that happened there.
Also, the palace maid in-charge of cleaning it even said that
when they entered, both the doors and windows were tightly shut.
They never saw anyone at all.
Who killed him then?
How about we make a hypothetical assumption first?
If it was me who pushed open the door, walked inside the main hall, and suddenly got attacked,
I will surely reflexively try to defend myself or struggle out of there.
But this corpse
doesn't show any traces of that.
He didn't tried to resist?
Rather than saying he didn't resist, it's more like he didn't had time to resist.
Upon seeing the object, his blood already got sucked out.
I don't believe it. In this world, it's impossible to have such evil power.
I also don't believe it,
but the corpse is here. We have no choice but to believe it.
Princess Consort, what do you need from me?
I want to ask you a question.
Who is the mistress of Liubei Palace?
That, I don't know. It's better that you ask other people.
You really don't know?
I really don't know. His Highness has a lot of matters he instructed me to do.
I'm very busy. Just spare me.
Princess Consort, even if you make things hard for me, I still don't know.
If you don't tell me
and I lose the competition, I have to leave this place then.
Princess Consort, I can tell you about it.
But this matter happened very long ago. It's better that you don't ask about it further.
Okay. I promise not to ask any more questions after.
Look. I'm investigating Liubei Palace. I must know who the mistress is,
or else, how would I know where to start my investigation?
You still can't...
Your Highness.
Don't do that. I've done that trick so many times.
If you want to know anything, you can ask me.
Your Highness, I...
I understand. Leave first.
Yes.
Why are you here?
Don't you want to know?
I'll tell you. The Mistress of Liubei Palace is Furen Yue,
the mother of Eighth Royal Prince.
It's just that she unluckily died at a young age.
I...just want to understand the truth.
I already told you the whole truth.
You can be curious and continue your investigation for the truth,
but you must not go after past events.
Furen Yue?
That's right. Lanruo, you heard of her?
Why are you mentioning her out of the blue?
Isn't she the mistress of Liubei Palace?
And aren't I investigating a case in Liubei Palace right now?
This is actually not some secret too.
Most people know about it.
Furen Yue is actually the birth mother of His Highness Eighth Royal Prince.
When she was young, she was very beautiful and is highly favored.
Too bad, a beautiful woman has such short life span. She died in a very young age.
The Eighth Royal Prince then was just a newborn.
Maybe because he lacked the care of a birth mother,
that's why, he did those ridiculous things.
So that's how it was. And I was wondering why Eighth Royal Prince would make fun of me when it was just our first time meeting.
But after you said that, I'm now more curious about Liubei Palace.
Princess Consort, are you having some weird ideas again?
I plan to sneak into Liubei Hall tonight.
Everyone is saying that the tragic murder in Liubei Palace is the doing of Furen Yue's spirit.
- Furen Yue? She has been dead for so many years. - That's right.
- Don't make up things. - What do you people know?
You didn't see that palace servant. His blood
has been completely sucked out.
Also, there were no signs of any people entering or exiting the hall.
If it wasn't a ghost causing trouble, what could it be?
I have long felt that there is something unclean in that palace.
It's always dark and spooky.
Usually, we do the cleaning in the morning.
- If not because this time— - If not because, what?
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, I didn't mean to break palace rules!
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, have mercy!
- Punish her according to palace rules. - I didn't mean to break the palace rules!
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, have mercy!
- Your Highness the Empress Dowager, have mercy! Your Highness the Empress Dowager! - Spreading false rumors to scare people...
Your Highness Empress Dowager, have mercy!
Your Highness, there must be someone playing underhand tricks on us.
Why not send some more people to investigate Liubei Palace during the night?
Immediately relay my order
to send 20 highly skilled martial artists
and guard inside Liubei Palace tonight.
I don't believe
we won't be able to capture this damn thing pretending to be a ghost.
- You've checked it already? No one is following us, right? - Yes.
There's really none?
Liubei Palace
Lanruo betrayed me again.
This doesn't concern Lanruo. You were too interested in Liubei Palace this morning.
I've already suspected that you'll do this, so I asked Shen Yu to monitor you.
What place do you think that is?
That is a crime scene where a murder just happened. You went out of the manor at this late hour
because you want to capture the killer alive and break this puzzle?
Who do you think you are? Do you have that skills?
How would I know if I don't give it a try?
As long as I'm here, don't think of causing any trouble.
- Let's go. - Rong Zhi, I beg you to let me look even just once.
- Qingyue! Qingyue! Save me! - Princess!
Qingyue!
Quickly let me go!
This is so embarrassing! Let go of me!
Rong Zhi... Hurry and let go of me...
If you promise me that you won't endanger yourself again,
I will let you go.
Be reasonable, okay?
If I don't investigate Liubei Palace at night, how would I know what happened?
I don't care! Let me tell you that if you act mischievously again,
I'll tie you upside down!
Why?
Because a person that's too confident with herself must have too much water in here.
I'll tie you upside down and see if those water will come out from your nose and ears.
You're too scary. I don't care. Let me go.
Let me go! Let me go!
- Let go! - Your Highness! Your Highness.
Someone died in Liubei Palace again.
There's another murder?
Who are these people? What's going on here?
They are palace guards. They wanted to investigate the matter here in Liubei Palace, but got killed.
You hear that? Do you still plan to sneak into Liubei Palace at night?
I might not end up just like them.
So reckless.
You want to investigate Liubei Palace at night?
Right. Because I have this intuition.
I feel that the killer is just concealing himself and looking for the opportunity to kill.
You better not do stupid things.
These 20 palace guards are highly skilled martial artists.
But they didn't even had the chance to escape, so don't even say resisting.
If you were the one who came last night,
I fear that there will be an additional corpse today.
Princess Consort, don't think about this matter too simply.
Liubei Palace is really an ominous place that a chill will run down your spine.
It's better that you be obedient and go back.
Feifeng General, although I don't have tons of battle merits and a formidable reputation like you,
I never lacked courage.
With these 20 lives as the price,
I won't act recklessly.
I will surely find the mystery behind this within 10 days
and make the killer reveal himself.
After looking for so long, I didn't find anything.
What did you find?
Nothing.
There's nothing at all.
- Qingyue. - Yes?
Say, is there really a ghost in this world?
Stop scaring me.
I'm just casually saying. Don't be afraid.
What you hear is fake, what you see is true.
Everyone says that there is a ghost, but who has really seen one?
Even if they saw it, they all have died.
- But— - There's a ghost.
You scared me! Say, nothing has happened
here in Liubei Palace for more than 10 years.
How come it must happen at this time?
I don't know.
Who is it?
Don't go! Stop! Wait a minute!
Let me ask you. Are you a palace maid of Furen Yue before?
I know that you can't talk, but can you write?
How about this? Reply to me by writing.
You do know how to write, right?
What happened to your hand? You...
Don't be afraid. I won't harm you.
I just want to ask...
Greetings, Prince Regent's Wife.
Senior Maid Qin? Why are you here?
Her Highness the Empress Dowager asks to see you.
Greetings, Your Majesty. Greetings, Your Highness the Empress Dowager.
Chuyu, half of the 10 days limit has passed.
Do you now have any clues?
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, the palace now is full of rumors.
They say that someone bumped into a ghost,
but that's not what I think.
It's clear that someone is causing mischief.
Have you found that person?
Temporarily none. But one day, I surely will find the killer.
It's good to have confidence. But over confidence
is dangerous. People will usually pie errors on top of errors. (distorting the truth)
I worry that if we aren't able to find the killer,
rumors will uncontrollably spread.
What about Huo Xuan? What idea does she have?
Replying to Your Highness the Empress Dowager.
Feifeng General is the same as Prince Regent's Wife.
There's no progress at all.
Since both of you can't think of a way,
why not give up on this frightening competition?
Why don't we just look for another topic to compete on?
Give up? How could we give up?
If we give up, it will become a cold case.
What about if someone get killed again in the future?
The murders all happened in Liubei Palace.
It didn't spread to other places.
To prevent deaths from happening again,
the safest way is to seal off Liubei Palace.
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, you must not do that.
We still haven't determined the winner.
Feifeng General has found no clues at all.
You also are unable to find a solution. Since both of you are clueless,
why must we still obstinately persist in doing this?
For each day that you two are unable to find the real killer, are we just going to let this danger run lose in the palace?
Sealing off Liubei Palace and not letting anyone in or out of it
is the safest method.
What about those who innocently died? Who will give them justice?
Princess Consort, stubbornly being competitive and unwilling to admit defeat
will cause more sacrifices.
Liubei Palace is Furen Yue's old palace. It's the only place where Eighth Royal Prince can reminisce about his mother.
If we just seal it off like this, he surely will be greatly saddened by this.
What did you say?!
Very sorry, Your Highness the Empress Dowager.
I know that I shouldn't have said that.
But I beg you to give me some more time, okay?
- Royal Mother— -Your Majesty, everything that I do
is for the good of Prince Regent's Wife,
yet she just doesn't understand my intentions at all.
If she doesn't understand, you must clearly understand it.
Sealing off Liubei Palace...
First is to stop the rumors.
Second is for the safety here in the palace.
Third is to not let others
say that there is a ghost in Furen Yue's palace.
Your Majesty, that's my intention.
Since it's getting misunderstood like this,
you think I'm able to endure it?
Chuyu, aren't you going to hurry and ask for forgiveness from Empress Dowager?
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, you want to seal off Liubei Palace
because you were considering our safety.
But I said those disrespectful words and hurt your feelings. I was too rash.
Sorry, it was my fault.
Since you understand everything, why do you still want to risk your life for this?
If anything bad happens to you, what about Prince Regent?
- But— - It's final then.
Let His Majesty give you two another topic for competition
and immediately send men to seal off Liubei Palace.
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, what you said is so wrong.
Timing and Subtitles carefully crafted by the MEI DAXIA Team at viki.com
Greetings, Your Majesty and Your Highness the Empress Dowager.
Hongxiu, what you said earlier was clearly that your against the closure of Liubei Palace.
Your Majesty, the rumors are now not limited inside the palace.
It has even spread throughout Pingcheng.
If we seal off Liubei Palace now, it's like admitting that the rumors are true.
Letting everyone assume that there is indeed a ghost inside the palace.
Guiren Feng, you shouldn't say such nonsense!
I suggested to close down Liubei Palace
because I wanted to ensure the safety of the people here in the palace
and not because I believed in some ghost stories.
Guiren Feng, since you've already entered the Imperial Palace,
don't bring in those filthy mess outside the palace into here.
What ghosts? What mischief?
I think that as long as one's conscience is clean,
any place will be a clean place for you.
What Your Highness the Empress Dowager said is right. I was out of line.
But...sealing off Liubei Palace
is a method of treating the symptoms but not the root.
The Imperial Palace is the land of the son of god, but we're just allowing an evil palace like that to exist in it.
It will only invite jokes from others.
Moreover, this Liubei Palace is after all the old dwelling of Furen Yue.
There are rumors spreading in the palace that it is haunted.
Then, doesn't that clearly suggest that Furen Yue has become a vengeful ghost?
The suggestion of Your Highness the Empress Dowager will just make things more conspicuous.
It will cause an opposite effect.
Your Majesty, not only will this hurt the heart of Eighth Royal Prince.
It will damage your prestige too.
That's why, I think that
not only must we not seal off this Liubei Palace, we must even find out the truth.
What Guiren Feng said is very reasonable. Also, the 10 days limit hasn't been reached yet.
I beg you to give me some more time.
What if after 10 days, you all still are unable to come up with a plan?
By then, if Your Highness the Empress Dowager wants to seal off Liubei Palace, I also will not say a word.
Okay. Since you can say it like that, I will then wait for the 10 days to end.
If by that time, there are still no discoveries, I will personally make a decree to seal off Liubei Palace.
Guiren Feng, you're so bold.
You dare to contradict Empress Dowager?!
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, I don't know what I've said wrong
that have caused you to be this mad.
You clearly know that the Liubei Palace case will bring a wide range of disaster,
yet you kept hindering its closure. What really are you trying to do?
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, you've misunderstood.
Guarding against the mouth of people is like guarding against a rushing water. Rumors will just worsen the more you try to block it.
In the end, everything will just get out of hand.
I did it just to let the truth placate the rumors. How can I have any motive?
I don't know what you really want to do.
But if Prince Regent's Wife and Feifeng General
both get hurt in Liubei Palace, you're the first one that I will not spare.
Feifeng General is both intelligent and valiant, while Prince Regent's Wife is clever and quick-witted.
I am very confident with them.
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, don't you think so?
Of course, I think the same way too.
Hongxiu!
Let's go back to my palace.
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, take care.
Hongxiu.
Are you alright?
I'm fine.
Thank you for earlier. If not because you said those words in my favor, Empress Dowager would have sealed Liubei Palace already.
By then, we won't be able to investigate anything anymore.
Chuyu, actually, what Her Highness the Empress Dowager said is right too.
I've seen so many weird stuff, but I never saw such a scary murder.
If Liubei Palace is really a haunted place, it is indeed better to just seal it off.
- Don't you risk your life and charge into there just for a moment of rashness. - Hongxiu
you know that I'm a very curious person.
If I didn't know this, then fine. But since I've bumped into it,
I can't stop midway.
Let me tell you that I must persist until the end.
Even if I don't find out the truth, I won't have any regrets.
Chuyu, I want you to promise me one thing.
What is it?
I heard that anyone who enters Liubei Palace after dark
are unable to come out alive.
That's why, no matter what matter you encounter,
you must not enter Liubei Palace after dark.
- You hear me? - Don't worry, Hongxiu. I know how to weigh the importance of things.
- Promise me first. - Okay. I promise you.
Do you know that even if I don't promise you,
Rong Zhi will drag me away before sunset everyday. He won't let me stay at all.
- You... - Lighter.
Prince Regent is being concerned about you. You're living in bliss yet you don't know how to acknowledge it.
Really?
Silly thing.
Qingyue, tell me. What method can we use to enter the great hall
but not get harmed by the killer?
Princess, how come Wei is full of monks? You can bump into them anywhere.
Aren't you stupid? His Majesty is very religious to Buddhism. The subjects will naturally follow their superiors.
Hence, it has become a norm.
- You got it? - Got it.
Shen Yu! Hurry! Hurry! Where is Prince Regent?
His Majesty gave him a new task. He won't be in the manor these next two days.
You can just tell it to me.
What to do then?! It will be too late.
What's wrong?
I don't care anymore. Let's go. Come with me.
- Go where? - Hurry and go. Hurry up!
Qingyue.
Princess Consort, what are you doing?
Shen Yu, you're here.
Isn't it they say that there is a ghost in Liubei Palace?
I then heard that a Buddhist statue can scare ghosts.
That's why, I looked for the best carpenter in the city
and asked him to expediently make me a Buddhist statue overnight.
This is not called expediently making. It's cleaning the Buddhist statue.
Right...it's cleaning the statue.
- No, Princess is actually planning to— - With this Buddhist statue,
the ghosts in Liubei Palace
will not cause mischief anymore.
Princess Consort never believed in ghosts before. Why are you suddenly believing it now?
Think about it. When a person is already severely ill and dying, he surely will try all kinds of medicines.
What if a miracle happens?
Although I don't believe it, His Majesty does.
What if we succeed by a lucky stroke and the ghost really disappears,
then won't I have won this round?
So, Princess Regent is just bent on winning,
hence, just turning to any kind of doctor. (any kind of methods)
That's right. And I will be able to finish this today.
I am going to deliver it to Liubei Palace before sunset.
Don't bother us here. Go...
- Go. Go. Hurry and leave. - Shen Yu!
Quickly go.
You're not allowed to tell him.
Okay already. Thank you everyone. You all can go back now.
Prince Regent's Wife, hurry and leave too. The sun will be setting soon.
I'll immediately go out. You all quickly go first.
Yes.
This is so great.
Qingyue, as long as you hide inside, you surely won't get discovered.
You can even clearly see everything without anyone knowing.
You must not betray me, or else, I won't mind you again.
No. You better come out from there.
What are you doing?! Qingyue, I'm not joking around with you.
I'm also not joking around with you! This is too dangerous! You can't go in!
The sky will be dark soon. I must catch a ghost. Quickly leave.
- Catch what ghost?! Princess! - Move! I must go in.
- It's too dangerous! - Quickly go out!
Princess! Open the door!
Open them!
Princess! It's too dangerous, Princess!
This surely will work. Once the sky is dark,
I will personally see
what thing is doing all these.
Princess!
Open the doors! Open the doors!
Princess, are you alright?! Princess!
It's fine... Nothing will happen.
Princess!
Open the doors! Princess!
- I didn't see it wrong, right? Was that Prince Regent?! - That's right.
What status does Prince Regent have? How come he's just running around the palace?
Has the sun risen up from the west?
Where is he rushing to go to?
Your Highness.
Damn you! I told you to look after her! How did you do that?!
Rong Zhi, what's wrong with you?
I thought...you already...
You think I was what?
I thought that after I left, you had secretly sneaked inside the palace again.
Look. Aren't I fine?
Look at me. I'm really fine. I was afraid that you'll get angry,
that's why, I didn't tell you. Don't be mad at me.
How many times have I told you not to endanger your life?
What if you die? What if you've also become a dried up corpse?
Do you know how afraid I was?
You only think of yourself.
You only know to competitive. You have no conscience at all!
Afraid? Were you afraid because of me?
I...it was you who banned me from going to Liubei Palace.
That's why, I used delivering the Buddhist statue to scare the ghost as an excuse
and then secretly hid inside it.
But Qingyue still told Shen Yu about it.
Shen Yu then requested a decree from His Majesty.
He dragged me out of there before dark.
Don't be mad at me anymore, okay?
Who then is that person inside?
Your Highness, this is a prisoner sentenced to death that I brought here.
He willingly joined this experiment in exchange of his freedom and won't regret dying because of it.
I already did my best.
But it still failed.
Let me see.
Huo Xuan.
What about it?
It's the same as previous.
His blood also got completely sucked out and died from it.
But he clearly was fully protected.
How did that monster entered?
Didn't you especially left a hole?
You're saying that the monster is smaller than this hole?
Of course. If you carefully examined the corpses, you would have noticed this beforehand.
It's my fault. I was too confident.
I'm the one who brought him harm.
Look at this.
What is that?
It seems to be pollen,
but also doesn't seem like it.
This is too dangerous. How about we just cancel this competition?
No. Since the competition has started,
unless me or Prince Regent's Wife die midway,
or else, it won't be stop. If you want to stop it,
sure. Tell her to immediately admit defeat.
Only then will this competition ends.
Your Highness, why didn't you even urge General Huo?
With her personality,
she won't stop until she finds out the truth.
But...
Okay already. I already promised not to interfere
in their competition.
General Huo is quite strange today. She was still fine yesterday.
Did I offend her in some way?
Shen Yu, move the Buddhis statue out of here.
Rong Zhi!
You can continue competing!
But you must tell me your every move!
You're being too domineering! Come back here!
Rong Zhi!
Timing and Subtitles carefully crafted by the MEI DAXIA Team at viki.com
Why are you following me? Get lost.
No. I can't find the way out.
It's true. This Imperial Palace is so huge.
It's also my first time to be here. When you left me earlier, I panicked.
You can ask a palace servant to guide you out.
Huo Xuan!
Didn't anyone teach you that you should handle a matter from start to finish?
It was you who brought me into the palace,
so you should be the one to take me out.
Gu Huan.
What's wrong? You're mad?
You clearly know...
I know.
I know that you are very angry because you saw
Prince Regent being so concerned about Princess Consort earlier.
Since you know, why do you still keep pestering me?
But do you know that I got angry too?
Why will you get mad?
You really don't get it?
I don't get it.
Okay. I'll tell you then.
How dare you?!
Sorry.
But I like you.
Impossible.
Why is it impossible?
You clearly know that towards Rong Zhi...
So what?
You clearly know that the person that Rong Zhi loves is Chuyu,
but aren't you still insisting on your stand?
While I? I traveled far from JIngzhou to PIngcheng
just for you.
Gu Huan, if you still don't stop talking,
I will cut off your tongue already.
A person's heart can't be controlled.
Even if you cut off my tongue,
you can't stop me from loving you.
I don't want to listen to these nonsense anymore.
Huo Xuan, one day, I will let you know
who is the person that really loves you.
Until that day comes, I will keep waiting for you.
Let me tell you then that the person I love is Rong Zhi.
That day will never come.
Wangyue Pavilion (Looking at the Moon Pavilion)
General Huo, sorry...
Wait.
The crystal lamp of Yuehua Palace is broken. These are especially to be delivered there to replace them.
General Huo, are there any problem with this crystal lamp?
Right. There is a problem, a big problem.
Wangyue Pavilion
Your Majesty, I beg you to make a decree
to stop the current competition.
Your Highness the Empress Dowager—
I also just heard it earlier.
If not because Shen Yu asked for a decree that night,
the person who would have died inside the Buddhist statue is Prince Regent's Wife.
How can we allow such a dangerous competition to continue?
Your Majesty. Your Majesty, I beg you to give me one more chance, okay?
Isn't there still one more day?
Have you forgotten how those people died?
You want His Majesty to give you one more chance?
Give out a better method of resolving this then.
I tried to stop her. But for Chuyu,
stopping the competition midway is like killing her.
Prince Regent's Wife, Empress Dowager is right. You shouldn't risk your life.
This matter ends here.
I will set a new topic and you two just compete once more.
But Your Majesty...
Feifeng General is here!
Greetings, Your Majesty and Your Highness the Empress Dowager.
Rise.
It's good that you're here.
Your Majesty, please announce in front of her
that the competition is over!
General Huo, did you hear that? Please try to get His Majesty to change his mind!
Your Majesty is worried about my safety and the Princess Consort's. I am very grateful.
However, Your Majesty has already personally given an imperial order.
Since you have already ordered me to investigate Liu Bei Hall, I dare not stop midway.
Your Majesty please rest assured. I have an idea.
What idea?
We should hold a worship ritual.
A worship ritual?
Since there is supernatural activity in Liu Bei Hall,
and Princess Consort's Buddha statue did nothing, we should use an offering
to pacify the spirit. Once it has been pacified,
then naturally the Princess Consort and I will be safe.
Then the matter of Liu Bei Hall can be investigated properly.
Huo Xuan, what do you mean by this?
Of course I am trying to contain the spirit within Liu Bei Hall.
-Aren't you afraid that its vengeful spirit could grow stronger and break out to kill more people? -Huo Xuan!
Your Majesty, I can guarantee
that there will be no more supernatural disturbances after the worship ritual.
But I boldly ask of you to personally attend the ritual.
Use your 'dragon spirit' to stun the 'ghostly spirit' so that we can get this done once and for all. (dragon is the symbol of the emperor)
Okay, then we shall do as you suggest.
I want to see if your method will work or not.
Thank you, Your Majesty.
Greetings, Emperor Dowager.
Huo Xuan! Have you lost your mind? You want His Majesty to endanger himself and personally be there during the ritual?
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, you must be careful. Don't startle the ghost.
Where is the ghost? I also want to see it.
Greetings to Your Majesty.
Hongxiu, you're here.
With Your Majesty being here, I won't fear anything.
It is exactly because there are people like you who wishes the world to be in chaos
that's causing the whole palace to be shrouded by this pandemonium atmosphere.
Your Highness the Empress Dowager, General Huo just have good intentions.
She wants to help in driving the evil spirits out of Liubei Palace. Why are you scolding her?
The sky will be dark soon.
Liubei Palace
Open all the cloths used to cover the sunlight.
Yes!
Who's there?
Catch her!
Everyone, come over here to look.
What's that thing?
What are those things?
- Butterflies. - Impossible.
I've never seen or suffered crossing paths with a blood-sucking butterfly.
These are not really butterflies, this is a pack of monsters!
They must not be permitted to come out, seal it immediately to the top!
Let's go!
Liubei Palace
Open the palace doors.

- Go get some tea. - Yes.
This is the thing that you want to show us?
Yes.
I have to thank Prince Regent's Wife for this. She ordered someone to create a Buddhist statue
where the only opening was a hole to observe the surrounding.
Afterwards, we found strange powder around the hole.
I then started to suspect that the one attacking the people is a kind of bug.
But at that time, I still didn't know where they are hiding.
So, just to conveniently observe them,
you ordered the men to shutter the window?
Yes.
Hateful. I clearly saw them before,
yet I just thought then that they were carved in such lifelike details.
Butterflies loving a flower blossom is just normal. Even if an ordinary person will notice them,
it's unlikely for them to think that they are living animals.
Right. This type of butterfly's body type is smaller than our normal butterfly.
After sucking and digesting the blood, it returns to the size of a moth
and returns on the wall.
What is that? Is that a...butterfly? A butterfly!

♫ It would be better to yearn more than meet ♫
♫ The misty rain of Jiangnan is so short-lived (idiomatic phrase, literally "night-blooming cactus blooms once")
♫Even while it's raining, it drizzles continuously ♫
♫ If we will see each other often in life ♫
♫ What must we do so we won't get fed-up with looking at each other? ♫
♫ At this day last year, It's the same sky ♫
♫ But the faces are different ♫
♫ I'd really like to see you again ♫
♫ Confess to you all my regrets in parting with you ♫
♫ Drawing a circle in the air ♫
♫ Praying that love will never change ♫
♫ I so want to rub my face against yours ♫
♫ Being greedy about your every moment ♫
♫ Don't ask how many years was I in pain ♫
♫ Turning back, it's all my tears...from my eyes ♫
