Faced with Hu Jiu's confusion, Pei Yan fell into deep thought. He paced back and forth, repeatedly replaying every detail of the battle with Delacuri in his mind. Very quickly, he found a crucial point, one he hadn't noticed before!

"They all want to hide a secret! A secret they don't want me to know."
"Who? Who wants to hide a secret?" Wang Wenze asked in puzzlement upon hearing Pei Yan's muttering.
Searching for any potential connection between the two, Pei Yan quickly found a suspicion he'd never pondered before. He turned to Wang Wenze and said, "Brother Wang, you! No! Xia Yu and Liang Qian, you all go together! Return to the investigation hall and bring Du Guangyuan and his son over!"
