269 Are You Jun Min?
Walking to one of the cities, Ming Hui immediately went to the crowd and looked around. From the description that Soujin gave them, they know that the other party's build was small, but that was all Soujin said to them.
"How in the world am I supposed to find that person?"
Ming Hui looked towards the crowd before him with despairing eyes. He only knew the description of that person from Soujin. As for how that assassin really looked like, he didn't have the slightest idea. With the number of people here, how could he find that person?
Grumbling, he walked down the street, trying to find someone with the matched description. With that kind of height, the person should have stood out among the crowd. He was short and the number of short people was not that many.
"Maybe he's a she."
If that was the case, searching for the person would be harder since it was common for a girl to have height only in 150's. Unfortunately, the number of girls out in the streets was not many since most of them were the adult. If they were young, they would stay in their home and rarely go out.
Ming Hui truly wanted to give up when his eyes looked towards a petite girl wearing a veil. She walked among the crowd on the paths that have fewer people. He recognized the girl, but he was truly surprised to see her here.
"Jun Hua."
The girl stopped. Jun Hua turned around and her mouth twitched a bit. Among the crowds, how could she possibly meet with someone she knew? She had purposely thrown that mask because of several reasons and walked in the streets to get some fresh air and erased those images from her head. Besides, didn't he was supposed to be in the capital of Kai Kingdom?
Ming Hui jogged to Jun Hua side."So, I was correct. What are you doing here?"
"I'm walking around, Prince Ming Hui, " Jun Hua answered.
"..." couldn't you lie better?
There was no way a princess would walk around in another kingdom than her own. Her lies were apparent, but the girl looked like she didn't know that. Ming Hui felt that this girl was surprisingly hard to talk with now.
Looking at her complexion, as a doctor, he noticed that there was something wrong. Her face was a bit pale, and it seemed that she was sick.
"Let's find a place for you to rest. Your complexion is not really good."
Jun Hua had forced herself when she was running away previously. With her using that martial art to shoot the emperor and the prince, it was obvious that she would not feel that good. She was highly tired and hungry.
Dragging Jun Hua to a nearby inn, Ming Hui completely forgot about the task from Soujin. He ordered some food and checked Jun Hua pulse. Upon recognizing her problem, his brow furrowed and he looked towards Jun Hua in confusion.
The pulse he detected signified that Jun Hua was someone who was well trained in martial arts. He knew that the girl was learning, but the pulse was telling him that the kind of martial arts that she was practicing was not normal and she must be someone highly capable in the martial art. In addition, there were some internal damages inside her body, which wouldn't heal in short term.
"Jun Hua, did you practice any weird martial arts?"
Jun Hua couldn't answer. That martial art from the world of assassins was useful for her, but it was a secret art only for woman. It was also an art that shouldn't have existed in the first place because of the effect it would have on the one who practiced it.
Ming Hui knew from Jun Hua silent that he was right."You shouldn't have practiced it... it can harm your body."
"I know."
Smiling kindly, Jun Hua retracted her hand back. She knew that the martial art she learned was not good for her body. Aside from that, she was pushing herself too hard which damages some parts of her body. It wouldn't be good for her to train too much in martial arts.
"I will give you some medicine, and you should eat your food first."
Jun Hua took the bowl and started eating. Ming Hui took a paper to write the prescription and asked some people to get it. After handing the paper to a servant and gave some money, he turned towards Jun Hua and noticed something on her hand. Her hand that was usually covered in sleeves was slightly open because she was eating. There was a distinctive mark of a wound from an arrow.
That mark... Ming Hui would never forget it in his life. That was the same mark as the one Jun Min had because of the fight against assassins when the boy is trying to protect the boy named Lin Kang. The wound on Jun Min body, how could Jun Hua have the same wound?
Could it be...?
Looking towards Jun Hua, she indeed had the same height with Jun Min. When they were standing together, it seemed like the two of them were twins if not for their differenced in gender. Not to mention that the two of them have similar features.
But if that was true, did it mean the one who has been together with them all this time was a girl? Ming Hui felt his head spinning around him as his mouth opened wide when he looked towards the person before him.
Jun Hua noticed that Ming Hui started to behave strangely and it seemed that he looked extremely surprised. Furrowing her brows, she took down the bowl that she had finished and stared at the other party.
"Is there anything I can help with, Prince Ming Hui?"
Finding his voice back, Ming Hui stared back."Are you Jun Min?"
