Feng Boliang's identity as the eldest lady of the Nine Shadows Hall on the first floor was enough to allow her to be unimpeded in the investigation, but Rong Xiao and Shen Antong's side was not so smooth.

At the moment, they had just met with Yuen Long before they made their intentions clear, and before they could lobby further, Yuen Long jumped up in anger and glared at the two of them, his eyes full of vigilance.

"What do you mean, do you suspect that I am the murderer?"

Shen Antong sat down generously with him, completely with the attitude of an old acquaintance: "Of course not, if we suspect you, it must be secretly investigating you, how can we ask you so openly?"

Seeing that his resistance dissipated a little, Shen Antong saw the stitches, put his arm on his shoulder, and said step by step: "So, it is because we believe that you will definitely not be a murderer, so we hope that you can become our ally, and we will solve this case together, and everyone will share the points!"

Common interests are always a shortcut to get closer.

However, she did not mention the previous analysis in front of Yuen Long. Because she understands very well that the most disgusting thing about the children of the concubine is that he is called a concubine to his face. What's more, if he really wants to seize the throne of his eldest brother, he will never want to be seen through to an outsider.

"First of all, can you tell us about the situation in the ring at that time?" Shen Antong began to try to "restore the scene", "For example, who is standing closer to Gu Mingxu or something?"

Yuen Long rolled his eyes upward, as if he was trying to recall, but soon, he grabbed his hair irritably: "You also know, the ring is very big, Gu Mingxu and I are not in the same battle area, and I don't know the situation on his side." ”

"When you're in the ring, everyone is concentrating on dealing with the enemy in front of you, who has time to care about others!" he seemed to get more and more excited, his hands were gesturing, and he almost jumped up again, "I...... I didn't even know that he had been assassinated before Princess Xixi brought it up!"

"That's right," Shen Antong immediately echoed, "It's the same on my side, even if someone dies in the ring, I guess I won't know about it." ”

Yuen Long was obviously relieved, and then looked at Shen Antong's eyes a little more kindly: "But isn't it! It's good that you can understand! I know that our Yuanxia Kingdom and Guanghua Kingdom have a bit of a delicate relationship with the Heavenly Saint Kingdom, and you can understand that you will suspect us, but I think that your investigation is in the wrong direction." ”

"You must want to check with people who have a holiday with Gu Mingxu or have an interest in it, right?" Seeing that the two of them were looking at him, Yuen Long changed his breath mysteriously, "But in my opinion, it is very likely that the murderer and him do not know each other at all!"

"It's because he's a seeded player and his strength is really extraordinary, the murderer sees him as a threat to qualify, and he knows that he may not be able to beat him, so he wants to get some poison to kill him, which is considered a double insurance. ”

"Why the murderer would have poison, probably prepared long before the game. When the time comes, no matter which group you are in, you will have to kill the seeded players in the same group. ”

"It can only be said that the murderer is a person who is particularly unscrupulous in order to win! This is an indiscriminate attack on the seeded players!"

Yuen Long said and became excited again. It seems that these speculations have been holding back in his heart for a long time, and he has long hoped that someone can witness his "god-like reasoning".

As for the identity of the murderer, it is absolutely impossible to be a passerby, otherwise on the one hand, the seeded players are frequently assassinated, and on the other hand, an inconspicuous character unexpectedly qualified, and everyone will see that there is something else hidden. Therefore, it must be a person who has some strength in his own right, and can be accepted by the public even if he qualifys!

However, he is ashamed to say that he can only analyze this step. Before you can accurately lock the target, if your "closest to the truth" reasoning is heard by the murderer, and he also uses poison against himself, it will be a big trouble.

Shen Antong listened to his endless talk, but sighed with some sympathy. At first glance, this kid has been robbed of the limelight by his imperial brother Yuan Junmo all year round. So it's rare for someone to pay attention to him, and he poured out so many words at once.

"Then why, only Gu Mingxu was injured in the end?

Although when he first said "no difference", Shen Antong secretly listed his opinion as "for reference only" in his heart. However, in order to hear how he justified himself, she still forced an inquisitive face and continued to ask.

Yuen Long was stunned, and then replied: "Because, it's just a coincidence, do you know? That Xu Ziji has a puppet to protect him, and the murderer can't get close to him, and Feng Qiwu is a top poisoner, even if he uses poison, it won't work." Therefore, in the end, Gu Mingxu was the only one who was poisoned!"

"Kind of makes sense. Before Shen Antong spoke, Rong Xiao suddenly nodded seriously, "We will consider your opinion." ”

Bidding farewell to Yuen Long, who was still immersed in reasoning and fantasy, thinking that he was a "detective delayed by the royal family", the two went to visit Lian Huakai non-stop.

On the way, Shen Antong couldn't help but say, "Hey, Brother Xiao, don't you really think that this assassination is indistinguishable, right?"

Rong Xiao was noncommittal, and muttered: "I just think that his way of thinking is desirable. ”

"Sometimes, we really should try to change our thinking, and maybe the truth of many things is not what we see. ”

……

Subsequently, in Lian Huakai's room, Shen Antong concocted the same method, claiming that "the only person we can trust is you" and "you are the only detective", Lian Huakai was even more excited than Yuen Long.

"If you ask me, you're asking the right person!"

"In my heart, there is only one murderer, and that is ......"

These two princes have a problem with panting when they speak. Shen Antong and Rong Xiao knew that it was the performance they wanted to pay attention to, and they all cooperated to make a serious waiting.

Lian Huakai took a deep breath again, and pointed his fingers downward three times:

"Xu Ziji!"

"Why him?" Shen Antong felt that he had half vented his breath again, and asked sullenly.

"Do you need to talk about it?" Lian Huakai said bluntly, "Didn't the murderer not be found afterwards? Because the murderer is the puppet he manipulated!"

"That's right, he first let the puppet out to assassinate, and then took the puppet back, and the god didn't know it!"

"What?Motive?Of course, it's for promotion! If Gu Mingxu and Feng Qiwu must get rid of one, of course it's better to sell a favor to the Young Master of the Nine Shadows Palace, right?"

Shen Antong and Rong Xiao both sighed silently. It looks like it's really a straw bale. It's no wonder that as a concubine, he was finally robbed of the limelight by the fifth prince Lian Huacan.

After contacting the two of them in a row, they all returned in vain, and they could only return to the hall and meet Feng Boliang.

"Sister Liang, how are you over there?" asked Shen Antong as soon as he came up.

Feng Boliang shook his head: "Fan Xin shouldn't be a murderer. He explained to me in great detail the distribution channels of the poison, and I could see that he was putting himself in the position of a 'helper', rather than a murderer who needed to cover up for himself. ”

As she spoke, her fingers also swiped lightly on the jade slip, flipping through the list that Fan Xin had given her earlier.

"I could consider investigating through these channels, but hopefully it may not be great. After all, this kind of black market trading is often visited by old customers, so it is impossible to sell their information casually, right?"

"What about you?" she asked, looking up again.

Shen Antong sighed: "Don't mention it, what about a really valuable suggestion that is bigger than the other? The only gain is probably that I estimate that those two are really not murderers, so ah, the clue is broken again." ”

The three of them glanced at each other, each a little helpless. It seems that it is not so easy to crack a case according to the clues of clues.

While they were pondering their next plan, at the entrance of the corridor, suddenly Shi Shiran walked a graceful figure.

"Are you here to investigate the murderer?"

That person was a disciple of the Array Dao Mansion and also Meng Zhao's senior sister, Meng Chan. Although she was rushed out of the ring like Tang Duan in the earth-shattering battle between Huangfu Li and Sikong Sheng, her supernatural formation was still quite amazing in the early game.

"I've had separate contact with the three people you're talking about. Meng Chan said, pursing her lips and shaking her head, "The conclusion is the same as yours." ”

"It's a pity that the prince himself really can't remember the murderer at all. I can only arrange a formation for him in his room to absorb the aura of heaven and earth and help to regain qi and replenish blood, hoping that he can get better soon. ”

"Do you also want to earn points?" Shen Antong looked at her, his whole body tensing up like a calf. If the other party is really a competitor, of course she has to hold down the information in her pocket, and at the same time deceive the other party as much as possible, and kick her away in the end!

Feng Boliang looked at her aggressive kitten, and stroked her back with some amusement: "An Tong, you usually look very smart, why are you sluggish in this regard." You can't see that people like Gu Mingxu. Even if it doesn't do any good, she'll definitely help, so you don't have to worry about her sharing your points. ”

Although he has no experience in love, Feng Boliang is still very sensitive to those budding little ambiguities. When Meng Chan mentioned Gu Mingxu, the affectionate style in her eyes, as well as the shyness of deliberately avoiding "calling her by her name", coupled with the fact that she made a special trip to visit and arranged formations for others, all of this is clearly the performance of a young girl!

was pierced by her bluntly, and Meng Chan's face was really a little more red. But in the slightly drooping eyes, there is a love that cannot be hidden.

It is also fate, she only met Gu Mingxu after participating in the assessment. On the day of the preselection, these golden branches and jade leaves showed their faces for the first time, and she in the hall was attracted by Gu Mingxu's graceful demeanor and the extravagance that belonged to the prince alone.

If it is only about appearance, then no matter where it is, Yan Lilin is definitely the focus of attention of the audience. However, maybe he is too good, he is a high-flying immortal, floating out of the dust, not eating fireworks in the world, ordinary girls will only be ashamed of themselves under his brilliance when they see him. Don't say it's to pursue him, even if you look at him more and secretly like him in your heart, you will think it's a blasphemy against him.

If Yan Lilin is a god in the sky, Gu Mingxu is a dragon on the earth. He is more tangible and has the opportunity to touch.

In a series of assessments, Meng Chan's good impression of Gu Mingxu continued to deepen. She also gradually realized that she really "liked" him.

Now there is still a big gap between their identities, so she is patient for the time being. When they all entered the Tiangong Gate, at that time, everyone was the senior brother and sister of the same door, and they really had an equal status. At that time, she can officially pursue him!

Even so, during the assessment, she would still go to Gu Mingxu privately from time to time to chat, care about him, and give him a little gift, hoping that he could remember his little bits.

A fate-changing assessment can also lead to a good relationship. However, this is not the only case, so far the assessment has progressed, and there have been many more young couples among the candidates. Every day when I went to the restaurant, I could see them feeding each other and talking about the love of the dead. In the words of the heteroplane, it was really "a single dog who had been abused".

Not to be said by others, it is Meng Chan's junior brother Meng Zhao, and he has become a pair with Jin Siqi of the Evil Wind Sect? In the past, in the sect, Meng Chan was better than this junior brother in everything, and this time she didn't want to fall behind in lifelong events!

"I'm from the Jindao Mansion, so I have a proposal. ”

Driven by love, Meng Chan's brain turned quickly.

"Since you can't find the murderer, it's better to 'trick' the murderer!"

"We can set up a formation in the ring of the fourth group, and then spread the news to the outside world, saying that as long as we put the poisonous blood in the center of the formation, we can follow the spiritual power to find out the last person who has been exposed to this poison before. Then, we hid from the side and watched, whoever was the most nervous and ran to watch, who could be the murderer!"

Shen Antong raised his eyebrows: "But maybe, it's just curiosity to come and see? You can't stop people from being curious, right?"

With one more free helper, Shen Antong is not exclusive this time. It's just that she still restrained Rong Xiao and Feng Boliang at the beginning, and now that she meets Meng Chan, naturally no one can stop her from "showing off her IQ superiority".

When Meng Chan heard this, she couldn't help but be a little frustrated. But Shen Antong quickly became angry again, and snapped his fingers: "But you reminded me!" or we will do this, the formation will still be the same, but we can apply a layer of colorless and transparent potion to the bottle, and then let the contestants of the fourth group enter the room one by one, touch the bottle, and tell them that the formation will find the murderer by itself." ”

"When they come out, let them touch another formation. People who have been exposed to potions before, and those who have not, will have different spiritual power maps. In this way, we can know who was weak in heart and had not touched the bottle before. How, can this kind of thing be done?"

Meng Chan was a little surprised at first, but gradually, her eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Sounds ...... You can give it a try!"
