Volume 2: The Secret of the Illusion Chapter 114: Change
When the thin dragon man saw Mu Cheng and the others, he smiled slightly, and waved his hand to the two, which was regarded as a greeting.
"Liejin, you're here. ”
As soon as Mu Cheng saw the person coming, he recognized it, this is the person Lie'an said.
Lie Jin, a dragon man who has just come of age, but due to his weak body, he looks about the same as a sixteen-year-old teenage dragon man.
"Two adults, you are finally here, Brother Lie'an has been waiting for you for many days, come with me. ”
Mu Cheng helplessly glanced at Lie Jin, who was so respectful, and spoke.
"Brother Lie Jin, I've said it many times, don't call us that, they all call us old, let's go, let's go see Uncle An first. ”
Lie Jin smiled, nodded, and reached out to make a gesture of please.
Mu Cheng saw Lie Jin's action and knew that Lie Jin was going to ignore his first half of the words, so he had to smile bitterly, and then left the central square under the guidance of Lie Jin.
What surprised Mu Cheng was that the place where Lie'an was located turned out to be an ordinary small courtyard.
When Lie'an saw Mu Cheng and the others coming, he was naturally overjoyed, and the brows that were originally frowning because of his troubles were temporarily relaxed.
Lie An heard that Mu Cheng and the two had not eaten dinner yet, so he couldn't allow the two to refuse, so he immediately sent someone to prepare a large table of food, saying that he wanted to welcome Mu Cheng and the others.
At the dinner table, Mu Cheng saw that people came to look for Lie'an from time to time, and knew that Lie'an must have been very busy recently, so he asked Lie'an directly.
"Uncle An, do you know what happened to Uncle Zhan?"
Originally, it was good to talk about other things, but Mu Cheng's sudden questioning of this question caught Liean a little off guard.
"Well, you've heard about it, I didn't want to hide it from you, I just wanted to tell you after you had a day off, and since you brought it up, I'll tell you.
This has happened three times, and all of them were committed by the dragons, do you already know about this?"
Mu Cheng saw Lie'an asking, so he nodded and said.
"Well, I've heard about this, so that's why I'm here to ask you. ”
Lie'an immediately understood what Mu Cheng meant, and asked a little unhappily.
"You also suspect me of doing it?"
"No, I don't think you'd do such a thing, but I'm a little afraid that your people will do these things, of course neither of these possibilities is high, I just want to find a starting point to investigate this matter. ”
Mu Cheng didn't seem to notice Lie'an's unhappiness, and continued to eat the dishes while saying lightly.
When Lie'an heard Mu Cheng's words, his face was slightly better.
"So you suspect the royal family did it?"
"Yes, it's possible. ”
Mu Cheng only answered Lie'an very vaguely, because Mu Cheng had long thought that the most likely thing in this matter was the intervention of a third party, but all kinds of evidence pointed to the royal family.
Since Mu Cheng is to investigate this matter, of course Lie'an supports it, he was worried about this matter before, three incidents, escalated again and again, maybe, next time Lie'an himself will go crazy.
But the biggest problem now is that he has already experienced it three times, and the relevant information he has obtained is still pitiful, and the royal family is suppressing his actions, which can't help but make him quite anxious.
Now Mu Cheng is willing to take over this troublesome matter, he is glad that it is too late, how can he refuse?
Ryan Ke was the one who trusted these two saviors the most.
"At first, I was worried that someone was going to do anything to discredit the royal family, but it wasn't until the third incident that I denied this inference.
As you know, he is one of my best brothers, and I know him very well, and he would never have done such a thing.
Since the day of the rebellion, because he was brave and good at fighting, heroic and straightforward, and was deeply loved by everyone, he was elected as the strongest combat force of the resistance forces, and he was also regarded as the commander of the resistance army.
So I don't think that the mastermind behind the scenes would sacrifice such an important figure, but just to discredit a wave of royalty.
Coupled with the occurrence of the same incident three times in a row, the effect of the first time has long been lost, and the occurrence of this incident in the fierce battle has even had the opposite effect.
Isn't it too contradictory to lay out such a well-thought-out plan that I can't even detect, and ignore such a big loophole?
And the one before the fierce battle was a squad leader, although his skills were good, he was notoriously withdrawn, and on the day of his madness, no other dragon clan was present.
Because this kind of thing happened before, I have long noticed it, on the day of the fierce war, he was with his two best friends, two of them died and one was seriously injured, I think no one is so stupid to sell his brother and lose his life, right?
The royal family, it is despicable to use such means to weaken me!"
Ryan was convinced that it must have been the royal family at this time.
Mu Cheng looked at the raging anger in Lie'an's eyes, and opened his mouth several times without saying anything.
Ryan is such a smart man, but now he has lost his way because of anger and prejudice.
Full of wine and food, Mu Cheng and the others refused Lie'an's stay on the grounds of time urgency.
Lie An also understood Mu Cheng's character, so he no longer forcibly retained him, after all, according to his inner thoughts, he also hoped that Mu Cheng would investigate this matter as soon as possible, not only to save his and Lie Zhan's lives, but more importantly, to clean up the rebel forces.
At this dinner, Mu Cheng was a little sad to eat, Lie'an was still that Lie'an, but it wasn't that Lie'an anymore, and it was only half a month.
Before leaving, Liean gave Mu Cheng a map, some information, and a token to facilitate Mu Cheng's investigation.
The map records the main distribution of the resistance forces and the three locations of the incident, and the data is for the three events, and the token is naturally also a token symbolizing Lean.
Mu Cheng looked at the extra token in his hand, thinking about the token given by the fourth princess before, and suddenly had some strange thoughts in his mind.
If you have a relationship with both sides, can you do something, such as making a difference in the price by yourself?
Leaving Lie'an's residence, Mu Cheng looked at the map, and then pulled Xiao Chi straight to the nearest crime site to him, the first crime scene.
The first case was already more than ten days ago, almost as soon as the day of the revolt ended, and it happened.
When Mu Cheng came to the scene of the crime, this place had already returned to its former prosperity.
This is a restaurant, the door of the restaurant dressed in expensive clothes of distinguished guests in and out, people come and go, so lively, as if they have long forgotten the original blood.
The three cases, each time being bloodier, and the strength of the protagonist of the case is also stronger each time, Mu Cheng even suspects that someone is doing some kind of cruel experiment.
According to the information, the first incident happened in the hall, but according to the current situation, it is definitely impossible to check the scene of the crime, and the only thing that can be done is probably to ask the insider.
Because this restaurant welcomes all kinds of people, from the emperor's relatives to the common people, the service dishes and prices are very good in all aspects, so there are a lot of people in and out of the restaurant, and Mu Cheng and the others easily slipped in.
After entering the restaurant, Mu Cheng and Xiao Chi began to investigate everywhere, but as they expected, too much time had passed, and all traces had been wiped out.
And their strange behavior happened to attract Xiao Er's attention.
"Two little guest officers, please don't run around anymore, it will disturb the other people's meals, but you two came with others and got lost? I can lead you to find it." ”
"No, just the two of us. ”
Because of the last incident, Mu Cheng didn't want to trouble, and was about to take out the badge of the fourth princess, but heard Xiao Er say the same.
"Okay, those two little guest officers want to eat? Come on, I'll take you to the box for dinner. ”
Mu Cheng was surprised this time, he thought he would be kicked out, but he didn't expect to be led into the box instead.
"Interesting, but what if we don't have the money and can't afford to pay for the box?"
"It's okay, the owner of our Huichuan Court said, the person who comes is a guest, if there are small guests coming, you can provide them with a private room for free to play noisy, oh, our box has a very good sound insulation effect, you can play at will." ”
When Xiao Er heard Mu Cheng ask him like this, he still smiled, not disgusted, but explained patiently.
Huichuan Garden? It seems to be the No. 1 restaurant?
Due to the hurry to come in, Mu Cheng didn't even look at the signboard of the restaurant, but he didn't expect to come here.
After Xiao Er brought Mu Cheng and the others to the box, he said wait a while and retreated.
After a while, Xiao Er brought a few more people to the box and delivered a menu and free tea and snacks to Mu Cheng and the others.
Now Mu Cheng is really interested, and one of his hobbies with Xiao Chi is eating.
Just now on the side of Lie'an, due to the atmosphere and topic, the two of them didn't eat well, and since they came here today, they can just taste the cooking skills on the first floor of this Dragon Palace Fantasy Realm.
Xiao Er didn't expect the two of them to order many dishes, although Mu Cheng and the two were dressed well, but they were not to the level of dignity, plus children, how much can they eat?
Xiao Er brought the two of them here purely because of the rules.
It's just that when Mu Cheng and the others said that they would serve all the specialties again, Xiao Er was so shocked that his eyes fell off.
"This little second brother, is there your shopkeeper, or someone who can be in charge? I have something I want to ask him, please tell me. ”
When Xiao Er heard Mu Cheng say this, he was immediately embarrassed.
"This little guest officer, it's not that I don't want to, but it's very unfortunate today, the shopkeeper happens to be not there, the main thing is there, our big boss is here today, but my identity... You know, it's impossible to meet the big boss. ”
Mu Cheng was not embarrassed by Xiao Er, took out the badge given to him by the fourth princess from his arms, and handed it to Xiao Er.
"It's okay, you can find a way to give this to him, I think he will come to see me, maybe, you can be promoted a few levels because of this, whether you can take this opportunity or not, it's up to you." ”
After speaking, Mu Cheng didn't say anything anymore, but drank tea, ate snacks, and waited quietly.
Although Xiao Er didn't know this badge, he saw that Mu Cheng was so convinced, and the style and material of the badge were so luxurious, so he gritted his teeth and retreated.
Mu Cheng looked at Xiao Er's movements, smiled slightly and squinted his eyes, the big boss of Huichuan Court, the person who can say it is the one who is the guest who says this, Mu Cheng is really curious.
