Chapter 246 Exactly the same raw rice paper

This secret was discovered by Ji Wan accidentally.

Duan Chengning was asked to put away the photo frame before, because this photo is indeed Ji's family portrait, and it is also the only photo of Ji Wan, Ji Hongbo, and her mother together, which is really important to her.

Later, when she escaped from the mountain villa, then moved out of Jin Mingcheng's house, returned to the wedding room, and accidentally picked up this photo to look at, only to find that the photo frame she thought was sealed could be opened.

She took a look at the photo frame, only to find that besides the photo, there was also a piece of raw rice paper that looked very old.

On the raw rice paper, there is hairpin small script written with a brush. The handwriting is beautiful, and it can be seen from the hands of a woman, but the raw rice paper looks very old and slightly yellowed. What's more, it is incomplete, only half open.

In the mountain villa, when An Yuanrong asked about the formula, Ji Wan really didn't know, but after Ji Wan came back, she saw this piece of raw rice paper, looked at the content on it, and then thought of An Yuanrong's words, in her heart It is concluded that this is the formula that An Yuanrong said.

She stimulated An Yuanrong with the formula, and even revealed that there was only half of it, just to let An Yuanrong know that she did have this formula in her hand.

"What are you looking at?" Duan Chengning entered the bedroom from the outside and saw Ji Wan standing in front of the cabinet lost in thought, so he couldn't help asking.

"I'm looking at the reason why An Yuanrong tried so hard to catch me." Ji Wan smiled, then turned around and brought the half piece of raw rice paper to Duan Chengning, "The formula should be this thing."

"Is it in your family's photo frame?" Duan Chengning asked when he saw Ji Wan's disassembled photo frame.

"That's right. Actually, my dad is quite good at hiding things. This photo frame is indeed the most important and meaningful thing in our family. It's a pity that An Yuanrong can't see it through." Ji Wan said, "Otherwise, he wouldn't have looked for it." It’s been a long time since I discovered the clues in this photo frame.”

Duan Chengning smiled, opened the raw rice paper that Ji Wan handed him, looked at the handwriting on it, as well as the material and degree of yellowing of this raw rice paper, suddenly he couldn't help frowning.

"What's wrong?" Ji Wan asked as if seeing something wrong with Duan Chengning.

"Xiao Wan, I have the same piece of raw rice paper in my hand, but... the content is different." Duan Chengning said, "I found it at the scene of my mother's death."

"Can you show it to me?" Ji Wan immediately asked nervously when she heard that the matter was related to Shen Yahe.

"Come with me." Duan Chengning said, and dragged Ji Wan into the study.

The study in this wedding room is not very big, not as big as the one in Duan's house, but the layout is very delicate. The bookshelves are well arranged, which is quite different from the layout of ordinary study rooms.

Ji Wan originally thought that this was the way it was when it was being renovated, but she didn't expect that it was done on purpose by Duan Chengning, because she saw with her own eyes that Duan Chengning moved two of the bookshelves away, revealing a secret door inside.

"This..." Ji Wan was stunned, suddenly feeling a little unbelievable.

She and Duan Chengning have lived here since they got married. Although they don't come to the study every day, the number of times they come is not infrequent. They didn't even find out that these bookshelves have other secrets.

"To be on the safe side, I can only do this, because these things are too important to me. They are related to my mother's death, and the real culprit has not been found yet." Duan Chengning said, "An Xin used to lure me out of Yicheng. And the clues provided are almost exactly the same as what I have found so far, and there is no progress at all."

Ji Wan didn't speak, but listened to Duan Chengning's explanation, and then followed him into the secret door.

The space inside the secret door is very small, it can only accommodate two people and a safe, and what Ji Wan saw in the secret door is only a safe.

Duan Chengning walked up to the safe, knelt down, and pressed the password, the number was 070906, and soon the safe opened.

"070906, is this number... the date?" Ji Wan couldn't help asking when she saw the password entered by Duan Chengning.

"Yes, do you find it very familiar?" Duan Chengning asked.

"It's very familiar. On that day, it happened to be the day I met you. I saw you covered in injuries in that alley in France." Ji Wan thought for a while, and then said, her tone seemed to be full of memories .

"That's right, I've used this password for many years. I've been using it ever since I returned to China, but I didn't know that you were the one who saved me back then. I always thought it was An Xin." For so many years."

Ji Wan's heart was sour, she didn't say anything, and then watched Duan Chengning take out the things in the safe, it wasn't anything expensive, just a few pieces of paper.

"Except for the content, it's really the same." Ji Wan looked at the piece of raw rice paper that Duan Chengning took out, and said, then unfolded the two pieces of paper and put them together for comparison.

"Both sheets of paper have signs of being torn, indicating that these two sheets of paper used to be one, but were divided into two neat parts." Duan Chengning said.

"No, it's not two equal parts, but three equal parts." Ji Wan said, "Look carefully at these two pieces of paper. Mine has tear marks on only one side, but yours is on the left and right sides. There are all of them, which means there is another one here.”

While talking, Ji Wan reversed the order of the two sheets of paper and put them together, and it was seamless, only the first sheet at the beginning was missing.

"I have the second one in my hand, and you have the third one. There should be the first one." Duan Chengning also understood, and then said, "But, what kind of formula is this that makes An Yuanrong value it so much?" , not hesitate to kill and set fire to get it?"

"I know." Ji Wan said, "I have heard a story that said that hundreds of years ago, there was a woman named A Xiang who was born with a strange fragrance on her body, and that fragrance could lure everyone in the world. All living things are close, whether it is human or animal, as long as they smell this fragrance, they will involuntarily have a good impression of Axiang, and even obey Axiang's words. Later, Axiang fell in love with a perfumer. The perfumer gets along with Ah Xiang day and night, and he is resistant to the fragrance of Ah Xiang, but he is also full of curiosity. He wants to know how the fragrance of Ah Xiang comes from, so he keeps experimenting and wants to concoct a fragrance. The same fragrance as Ah Xiang's body, in the end...he succeeded."

"You mean, what is written on this piece of raw rice paper is the ancient recipe that the perfumer tested?" Duan Chengning felt a little unbelievable and asked.

"But this story is just a legend in the fragrance industry, and... this story was told to me by the teacher." Ji Wan said, "If the paper in your hand was found at the scene of the teacher's murder, it means that she has already passed away." I knew the existence of this piece of paper, but when she told me this story, she didn't mention a word..."

"I seem... to understand why." Duan Chengning frowned, staring at the two pieces of paper in his hand, and said.
