Volume 1 * Senmei Society Chapter 17 * Sharp

In winter, a quiet and cold season, the brook lost its voice, and the music that flowed here was like a lyre with broken strings, and lost its timbre; A north wind blew, and the crisp foliage could no longer be heard, except for the slick trunks swaying.

It seems to be a quiet season, but outside the door of the Shengming Society, it seems a little restless, Chang Yu'an sits on the chair, the brazier is placed on the right side of the chair, and the coffee table is placed on the left, the hot tea is boiled on the coffee table, the desk is in front of the chair, and the back is a dazzling array of books, and the back window behind the book is his couch, staring thoughtfully at the door.

Changyu's decoration was ordered by Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng to rearrange it after returning from the vegetable market that day; Winter is coming, Changyu's body is not suitable for walking back and forth, so this kind of furnishings saves the study and bedroom to go back and forth, not only that, Changyu can also read a book while looking at the outside scenery, it will not be as boring as the study.

"The head of the house." Shen Cheng asked to see him outside.

"Come in and talk about something." Changyu didn't raise his head, and said as he gently stirred the charcoal in the brazier with tongs.

Shen Cheng shook the snowflakes on his body, walked to the desk unhurriedly, and sat down on his knees, although Shen Cheng was already very careful, but walking would inevitably bring the wind, this breeze blew through the brazier, splashing a trace of sparks, making the charcoal burn more vigorously.

"Family Master, judging from the footprints outside the meeting in the past few days, there are more and more spies from the Hidden Dragon Gang, should we take action?"

Changyu put down the tongs in his hand, turned around, leaned back on the chair, and drank tea while picking up the teacup, while thinking: This Zuo Qiuzi must want to understand me through the spies, so that he can act in the future, and he is indeed a person on the Tianji list, but if he continues to investigate like this, I am afraid that it will hinder my future actions, so I have to find a way to make him feel at ease.

"In this way, you and Shen Zhong, in the land of Jingzhou, posted everywhere about the poisoning of my Zhipo Medical Hall, and informed the elders of Jingzhou that if there are any disputes and unsolved cases, the Shengming Association will definitely help them solve them."

Shen Cheng's eyes suddenly widened, he raised his head to look at Changyu, and asked suspiciously: "Family master, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, we have just arrived in Jingzhou, shouldn't we be obscure?" At this time, I am afraid that it will be dangerous to show your edge! ”

"I'm just going to show my edge." Changyu told Shen Cheng with a very affirmative look.

Shen Cheng looked puzzled, but since the head of the family said so, he naturally had his plans, so he called Shen Zhong, and the two went to Zuijiang City and Yushuang City respectively, according to the instructions of the head of the family, to promote Changyu's wisdom everywhere, of course, the spies of the Qianlong Gang also followed, and when they saw this situation, they immediately reported to Cao Xuan and Zuo Qiuzi.

Zuo Qiuzi is not so easy to fool, as soon as he heard this, he felt very strange, and thought: This Zhuge Changyu is really a proud and arrogant reckless man, or wants to make a plan to get away with it, so that I can relax with him; The matter was still unclear, so the spies were ordered to continue to monitor the Senmings.

In the past few days, the Shengming Association has not only not stopped promoting Zhuge Changyu's talent, but also intensified, and even said that the road is slippery on snowy days, and it is inconvenient for the people who have disputes to go up the mountain, and the Shengming Association will arrange a carriage to send it to the mountain.

One day, a few children really said that they would go up the mountain to let Changyu judge, and the Shengming Society also sent a carriage to the meeting hall of the Shengming Society as previously said, and Changyu was already waiting for them in the hall.

The children were about ten years old, and they were carrying cages in their hands, and from the argument between a tall child and a small child, it could be seen that the cage was filled with hares, and it was a beautiful thing to catch hares on a snowy day.

"You must have stolen the hare I caught." One of the taller children pointed to the smaller child.

"I didn't."

"It's you, the person I saw is you, why did you catch three of them, and now there are only two left, you must have stolen one and put it in your own box while I wasn't paying attention."

Seeing that they were getting more and more noisy, the tall man had to take the kid's cage to find out, but the little man refused to give it, and the tall man pushed the little man to the ground with a push, and the little man covered his eyes with both hands, and began to cry bitterly, and kept shouting: "You have wronged me, I really didn't steal your hare." ”

Hearing the word injustice, Changyu suddenly felt a heartache.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Shen Zhong asked with concern.

"I'm fine."

Changyu squatted down, asked the tall child, and said, "You said you caught three hares, and now there are only two, right?" ”

"Yes." The kid said confidently.

"Then I ask you, who saw you catch three hares?"

"When we catch hares, we are scattered, so we don't know how many others have caught, but occasionally when we get close, we will see if the other party has caught them?" The other kids next to him said.

"Well, well, don't you all have your hare cages together?"

"Yes, yes, we put them all together in the designated place for the convenience of searching." The child next to him said.

"Since it's all put together, why are you sure that the kid stole it, and not someone else? So I guessed that the other kid didn't have a hare in his box, but only that kid had a hare in his box. ”

Everyone opened the hare box and looked at it, and sure enough, it was as Changyu said.

"Well, this doesn't mean that he didn't steal it." The tall child's eyes flickered, and he said with a weak heart.

"Then I'll make it clearer, if he wants to steal, why only steal one, instead of two, anyway, there are not many of them, stealing a few will be discovered, it's better to steal more, and why don't you say that there are two less, but one, because you know that the child has only one in the cage, I don't think I need to explain it!" Hearing Mei Changyu's words, the tall child left in shame, and the little child thanked Mei Changyu and followed everyone home.

Changyu asked Shen Zhong and Shen Cheng to publicize what happened today.

The spies reported this Changyu skillfully stealing rabbits to Cao Xuan and Zuo Qiuzi, Zuo Qiuzi heard it, and said with great joy: "Helper, this Zhuge Changyu is really a complacent guy, and now he is even in charge of children's affairs, I don't think he is like a gang leader, but like a housekeeper, this person is sharp, there is no need to worry, starting today, there is no need to monitor the Shengming Society." ”
