Li Mi did not pursue the heavy pupil female killer, the night was quiet, and the sound of the flower pot breaking was very harsh, and after a while, the official on duty at night came over.

Li Mi still didn't know the intentions of the female killer, and he didn't tell the truth to the officials, if the people of the county government knew that someone was going to assassinate him, maybe they would drive him away.

So Li Mi just deduced that he was enjoying the cool air, and a thief came in to steal it, made him smash a flower pot, and then escaped over the wall.

The official hurriedly called a few people and chased them out in the direction pointed out by Li Mi.

Li Mi's approach is also to let the county government strengthen inspections to avoid the comeback of female killers.

After the servant left, Li Mi returned to the room, put the short knife on the table, and studied it carefully.

This short knife looks at the shape and knows that it is a Japanese knife, chrysanthemum steel, well-made, it is a treasure knife that sharpens iron like clay.

Japanese samurai generally carry two knives, one long and one short, the long one is a taidao, a knife or a naginata, and the short one is called a rib difference, and this short knife should be a rib difference.

Whether it is a knife or a naginata, it is a very long blade, and the Japanese people are short in stature, and sometimes they need help from others to draw the knife, even in ancient China, this kind of long knife and long sword are usually pulled from each other, you pull out my knife, I pull out your knife.

Therefore, in hand-to-hand combat or indoor fighting, samurai generally use ribs, and this ribs also have the function of armor breaking.

Of course, this armor-piercing is not piercing the enemy's armor in the traditional sense, but is scrambled through the gaps in the armor, and the short soldier with the real armor-piercing ability is called armor, tied to the right arm, and used with the left hand.

In other words, the heavily armed samurai of the Wa Kingdom are basically or at least a three-sword stream!

In later generations, some people mistakenly thought that the rib was the knife used by the samurai to cut the abdomen, but in fact, it was wrong, in addition to these three knives, the samurai also hid a short knife, called the Huai Sword, which was used to cut the abdomen.

In other words, the heavily armed Japanese people will carry four knives on their bodies, plus bamboo bows, quivers, and the like, and the monkey-like short Japanese people are afraid that they will be exhausted to death by the equipment on their bodies if they don't see the enemy.

Li Mi originally wanted to track down the identity of this female killer through this short knife, after all, the peasant uprisings in the Ming Dynasty have never stopped, and the government is very strict with the control of civil swords and soldiers.

This gap is enough to prove that the female killer is indeed a Japanese person, but it becomes a little impractical to trace her identity through this Japanese knife.

The reason is obvious, the Japanese sword was forged by the Japanese people, and how to find out the origin of this knife?

However, Li Mi still saw two engraved Chinese characters on the handle of the knife, and thought that it should be a surname: "Asakusa." ”

Li Mi silently wrote down the name, put the ribbed short knife close to his body, thought about it, and searched the room.

He wanted to know, what was this female widow surnamed Asakusa looking for, why he found Wu Yong's head, and even whether Wu Yong's madness was related to this female widow?

Because Li Mi doesn't believe in the statement of a female ghost, maybe this female widow went to Wu Yong's outer room to steal things, and was mistaken for a female ghost.

But this female widow kills people without blinking, and is extremely ruthless, after being discovered by Wu Yong's concubine, why didn't she kill Wu Yong and the concubine directly, but pretended to be a female ghost?

Could it be that Wu Yong had something in her hand that she needed and had the value of use, so she didn't kill Wu Yong?

There were no clues and evidence, and there was no reason for it, so Li Mi searched carefully.

However, seeing that the sky was bright, Li Mi was tired and sweaty, but after all, he found nothing.

He had to tear down the room, but he still couldn't find anything suspicious.

However, he did not find nothing, at least from this search, he also really understood Wu Yong's character.

From these official documents and objects in his room, it can be seen that Wu Yong is at least very diligent in his work, and on this issue, Li Mi had misunderstood Wu Yong before.

After fighting with Asakusa earlier, Li Mi was already a little tired, and then searched for most of the night, and he was also weak at this time.

However, after exercising, the alcohol in his body was discharged with sweat, and Li Mi felt a lot more relaxed.

He is just living in the official house temporarily, and he can't be too casual, Li Mi took advantage of this vacancy to clean up the room and restore it to its original appearance, and then sat down to rest.

As soon as he relieved his strength, Jian Dingyong asked Chang Sui to come and invite, Li Mi was sour, and it was not good to go to see people like this, so he asked Na Chang Sui to take him to take a cold shower, and his spirit was suddenly lifted.

Jian Dingyong has a lot of things to deal with, the affairs of the yamen are handed over to the master and the canonical history, and the main book and the county official can also share it, including appeasing the bitter lord and tracking down the murder case, which are also handed over to the head catcher and relevant officials.

After having breakfast with Li Mi, they came to Wu Yong's outer courtyard, and while visiting Wu Yong, they also wanted to investigate the female ghost incident.

Whether it is Zhang's death, or Chen Shi's murder, more than a dozen murders, or the Japanese cowards making trouble behind their backs, Zhang is a key figure that cannot be avoided.

Now that Wu Yong hit a ghost in the middle of the night, it turned out to be Zhang's unjust soul, which has to make people suspicious.

From this point of view, Jian Dingyong is indeed a person with some real skills, at least he can see the key to the matter, and this alone is enough for Li Mi to remove him from the blacklist of dog officials.

Jian Dingyong sat in an official sedan chair, and there were officials who opened the way, and soon came to Wu Yong's courtyard, but there was a dispute in front of the courtyard.

Li Mike was not qualified to sit in a sedan chair, so he could only follow on foot, and saw a familiar figure from a distance, wasn't it Lu Chongning, a talented showman!

It's only been two days since I saw him, and this Lu Xiucai is like a sponge squeezed out of water, so thin that he is skinny and bones, and he doesn't look like a human anymore!

At the celebration banquet last night, because of the mention of the ghost of the Zhang family, Li Mi also heard about the Lu family.

Because of the news spread everywhere, everyone knew that Lu Chongning's wife was a murderer, and the Lu family was under tremendous pressure, and the neighbors in the market were even spreading rumors, saying that Lu Chongning had such a big scandal, but I was afraid that even Xiucai's identity would not be able to be kept.

This infatuated but kept in the dark man was really a little distressing, Li Mi couldn't help but take a few steps ahead, and he saw the reason in a moment.

This Lu Chongning heard that Wu Yong had seen Zhang's ghost, and he wanted to come here to borrow it, hoping to see his wife's ghost!

Li Mi couldn't help sighing, most of the people in ancient times were superstitious, and most of them believed in ghosts or dreams, although Lu Chongning was a scholar, but he didn't learn scientific knowledge, and he was naturally convinced of ghosts.

Xie Yingluo must have told Lu Chongning the truth, but this man, who has always been deceived by his wife, still misses his deceased wife, which shows how affectionate he is.

This kind of scene is inevitably a little sad and lamentable, Li Mi stepped forward and said to Lu Chongning: "Lu Maocai, why are you here?" ”

Li Mi is a guest of the Lu family, and he helped the Lu family investigate the case, after Yuan Keli let go, Xie Yingluo once asked Li Mi to investigate the case, but the woman's attitude was too bad, and Li Mi didn't pay attention to her at all.

At this time, Lu Chongning saw Li Mi, as if he had seen a savior, and he was about to salute immediately, and was helped up by Li Mi.

"Mr. Li, I was looking for you everywhere yesterday, but I don't know where you went, and now it's really nice to see you!"

"Mr. Li, my deceased wife was killed, I implore Mr. to find out the murderer and avenge me!"

Lu Chongning's face was so thin that he didn't have half a piece of flesh, his eyes were deep-set, his face was pale, and when he opened his mouth to speak, he was sad, and bitter tears soon soaked his eyes.

Li Mi also couldn't bear it, he was a suave talent, and he was tortured like this in just a few days, which is really pitiful.

Li Mi could refuse Xie Yingluo, but he couldn't bear to refuse Lu Chongning, and immediately said: "Lu Maocai, don't worry, I won't give up this case." ”

After getting Li Mi's nod, Lu Chongning became happy, but at this time, Jian Dingyong also got off the official sedan chair, and Lu Chongning hurriedly came over to salute, after all, Jian Dingyong was his nominal teacher.

"Why is the big husband suffering from having no wife, and why should he be so sad and sad, instead of indulging in the past, it is better to study hard, and in the future, he will be famous in high school, and he will glorify his ancestors, and he will know how worthless it is to lose his will today."

Lu Chongning was taught such a lesson by Jian Dingyong, and his face was also very embarrassed, burying his head deeply, and he didn't dare to respond.

Jian Dingyong shook his head and sighed lightly, and continued: "Think about you, Lu Chongning, is also a talented person, he was a talented person when he was a teenager, and he also took an excellent exam, and became a student. ”

"This official has always admired you very much, but you are obsessed, since you married a wife, you have not made an inch, haven't you come to your senses until now?"

When Jian Dingyong said this, Lu Chongning raised his head suddenly, there was light in his eyes, but it was meaningful.

Perhaps what Jian Dingyong said is not unreasonable, but Li Mi does not agree with his statement, people are emotional animals, and if you want to get out of sadness, you must untie the knot in order to be open-minded and happy.

"My lord, Lu Mao is a smart person, he understands these truths, but he has just lost his beloved wife, it will take a while to recover, and heart disease still needs heart medicine, and if this case is investigated, he may be able to put it down..."

When Jian Dingyong heard this, he was a little unhappy and said, "Are you blaming the official for not being able to solve the case for a long time?" ”

Li Mi also wanted to take the opportunity to strengthen Jian Dingyong's heart to investigate the case, but he didn't expect it to backfire, making him mistakenly think it was mockery.

However, Jian Dingyong is not a very unreasonable person, and without waiting for Li Mi to explain, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't you just want me to investigate the case, go in and have a look." ”

When Li Mi heard this, he also smiled: "It's a certain person who is in a hurry, Lord Haihan." ”

The people in Wu Yong's courtyard naturally recognized Jian Dingyong, and they waited on the side, not daring to come out, so they hurriedly stepped forward at this time to welcome Wu Yong and Li Mi in.

Jian Dingyong took two steps, and said to Lu Chongning: "What are you still standing for, you can come in too!" ”

Lu Chongning raised his head suddenly, his face was ecstatic, and he said to Jian Dingyong: "Thank you, teacher!" ”

Jian Dingyong snorted, and also laughed angrily: "Only now do you know that you want to call the teacher?" ”

This joke also eased the atmosphere, but when they walked into the courtyard, this relaxed atmosphere was quickly dispersed!
