In October, although there are no clouds during the day, after all, it is already the late autumn season, and the evening time is not as comfortable as the daytime.

Some cold autumn winds blow between heaven and earth, and the originally lively town center seems to be gradually moving towards silence because of this cold autumn wind. The night was dark and the wind was high, and a crescent moon hung in the sky, which was the only light in the night, but this light was extremely dim, and even if there was occasional flickering starlight, it was still out of sight.

Suddenly, at the top of the house, an agile black figure, under the occasional light of the lamp, jumped from one place to another like a tanuki, and did not stop until it was near the literary courtyard. His figure blends with the darkness between heaven and earth.

The academy is located in a camphor forest, and in the dark night, it becomes more secret, but even so, you can still hear the voice of the watchman: "When the night is approaching, it is safe! The tone of the voice is extremely long, this is the night patrol and watchman, reporting safety to everyone who has not yet fallen asleep!

At this time, the last light in the literary academy was also extinguished. It was the gatekeeper's, who was responsible for guarding the gates of the Bunin and ensuring safety before the child.

When the sound of the dozen watches was far away, and the last light was extinguished, the figure that had just been hidden in the darkness suddenly burst out of a wood, and with the advantage of the surrounding environment, it made a few 'rub-rub-' sounds, and then crossed the wall of the literary courtyard and entered it......

…………

When Qin Yi went to the Academy of Literature, it was already the end of the morning, but to his surprise, the surroundings of the Academy of Literature today were very different from the usual tranquility.

At this time, outside the gate of the Academy, a large number of students and pedestrians were surrounded, and their expressions were anxious, as if something had happened that had damaged their vital interests.

"This ...... What's going on? The Academy of Literature will also encounter thieves to rob things? ”

"No, it was the thieves who stole the test papers of dozens of people in the secret box! This is one thing, Lord Shi Ao, who discovered it this morning! ”

"Humph! What does this thief want to do? What can he get by stealing Lao Tzu's test papers? If this "Baice Collection" can't be compiled, wouldn't it be impossible to spread such a good word written by Lao Tzu?"

"Yes! Ben Gongzi's test paper was also stolen in this case! "Baice Collection" is the easiest way to spread a student's reputation, and Ben Gongzi is lost like this? I hope that the Academy of Literature can give us an answer, and I also hope that the Criminal Law Department and the Prison Investigation Department can chase down the murderer and take back the test papers of all of us! ”

The noisy sound naturally reached Qin Yi's ears. From these noisy voices, I have obtained an extremely important information, that is, the literary academy has been stolen, and some of the manuscripts needed for the compilation of the "Baice Collection" have been stolen.

When he first heard the news, Qin Yi was subconsciously stunned, feeling a little incredible. Who would come and steal something from the Academy?

You must know that those manuscripts in the Academy of Literature and the like, to put it bluntly, are just a piece of waste paper, and they are of no use to thieves at all. I'm afraid there is no other use for it except for the thatched house, right? What's more, the thief stole so many test papers for the last thatched house?

Obviously, this causal relationship is logically impossible to establish? Unless that thief has water in his brain, it is impossible to steal the things in the Academy.

This is what Qin Yi finds most incredible. However, he did not speak to himself, but walked into the crowd with his feet raised and came to the gate of the literary academy.

By this time, he had already seen some of the men in uniform, who belonged to the Criminal Law Department and the Prison Department, and it was clear that the matter had been taken over by these two divisions.

"My lord is here!" Shi Ao's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Qin Yi coming over, he hurriedly greeted him, his expression was full of panic, "My lord, think of a way!" ”

"I already have a rough idea of what happened!" Qin Yi arched his hand, his expression was a little serious, "Go and meet Master Liu and them to see what they think?" ”

At this time, Qin Yi had already seen that not only the officials of the Criminal Law Department and the Prison Investigation Department were busy in front of the Academy, but also some of the main officials in the Academy. After all, the theft of the Academy of Literature is a big deal, and if you don't find out why, even a petty official like Qin Yi will be able to sleep peacefully.

You must know that the Academy of Literature is near the Department of Scholars and Scholars, and it is not far from the town envoy's office, and if you dare to steal things under the noses of such various official institutions, that thief is too arrogant! This is not only Qin Yi's idea, but also the thoughts of many officials of the Academy of Literature!

Liu Congwen's face was very unsightly at this time, and the compilation of "Baice Collection" required a large number of manuscripts, among which the examination papers of the college examination were the most important. But now, this most important thing has been stolen by thieves, in other words, because of the loss of the test paper manuscript, it will lead to the delay in the compilation of "Baice Collection", and when the time comes, not only he Liu Congwen, but even the entire Academy of Literature, will be scolded by Ge Wenqiu, the Si Zheng of the Department of Scholars!

"Lord Shi, are the only manuscripts that were stolen?" Qin Yi asked Shi Ao his doubts in another way, "Aren't there some other objects?" ”

"This ......" Shi Ao was stunned for a moment, and looked at the officials who entered and exited the prison department at the gate of the Academy, his expression was a little ugly, "It's still in the statistics, but the most lost are the test papers and manuscripts!" ”

"Humph! These old fritters, I think they're tired and crooked! ”

Qin Yi was about to continue, but his thoughts were interrupted by Xu Fang's indifferent cheers.

"These old fritters who keep vigil, few of them are serious, they are all people who take money for nothing!"

"Lord Xu, don't be impatient, before the Prison Department has reached a conclusion, we can't judge that it is the mistake of these night watchmen!" Qin Yi saw that many of the guards who Liu Congwen reprimanded, many of them were elderly, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart, so he excused Xu Fang for those people, "The people who keep vigil usually fall asleep after the hour, and it is hard enough!" ”

Xu Fang snorted coldly and changed the topic: "Lord Qin, I have very unfortunate news to tell you, among the stolen manuscripts, there is your share!" If you don't think these people are guilty, then who will? ”

"Naturally, it's the thief!" Qin Yi's eyes glanced at the guards who were being reprimanded by Liu Congwen, "I see, this matter is still a little strange!" ”

"The Academy of Literature is a Qingshui Yamen, there is no property, but the thieves stole those manuscripts that are of little use to them, if there is no weirdness in them, I don't believe it if I kill the official!"

Qin Yi stared at Xu Fang with a questioning expression, Xu Fang was coldly stared at by Qin Yi, and his heart was cold, and he quickly covered up the change in his expression: "Maybe there are some untrue remarks in those manuscripts, which must be among the students who have stolen the manuscripts." The student was afraid that such a manuscript would be published in the world, so he came up with this strategy! ”

"Oh? It's possible! Qin Yi was puzzled again, but the expression on his face seemed to not care about the theft of the manuscript at all, but turned to Shi Ao, "Lord Shi, go back and talk to the Prison Division, and say that they don't have to worry about this matter!" ”

"This ...... Lord Qin, you better ask Lord Liu what he means! ”

Qin Yi heard Shi Ao say this, turned his head to look at Liu Congwen again, and saw that he was still scolding those guards. His scolding was so loud that he could still hear it clearly even in the noise of the many students.

However, then again, Qin Yi felt that he was a little lucky for this matter! When he first reviewed the manuscript, he extracted his thesis and presented it to Ge Sizheng of the Scholars Division, where it was stored separately. In its place, it was the one he had written.

If I hadn't done this at that time, I'm afraid that my own policy of "Non-official Policies: Official System and Family" would have been known to outsiders! Fortunately, this thief stole the new one he wrote!

Half a quarter of an hour later, Liu Congwen seemed to be tired, and when he saw that many officials had arrived, he stopped the scolding in his mouth, and came to Qin Yi with a black face: "Qin Yi, Shi Ao, Shan Peng, Tong Can, the four of you go to the Criminal Law Department Si Zhenggu Feizhou, they are examining the relevant personnel!" ”

"Yesterday's theft, Lord Gu wants to personally investigate it! None of them, the guards at night, can escape, they are all suspicious! ”
