Chapter 425: A Sudden Revelation
"How, how is that possible?"
Lu Fatzi buried his head in the old eagle's nest and almost dismantled the entire bird's nest, but there was nothing in the bird's nest except feathers, leaves and weeds, not to mention the account book, not even a piece of paper.
The two big eagles circled over the top of the village, scraping and shouting loudly, full of anger at the fat guy who destroyed his home, but he was afraid of the many pro-military captains who insisted on shaking their swords and guns, otherwise they would have flown down and pecked hard.
Just now Lu Yuanzhi boasted about Haikou in front of everyone, but he didn't find the account book at this time, Rao was thick-skinned and a little embarrassed, so he threw the old eagle's nest on the ground.
Yang Zhao and Zhao Shichen knew that they hadn't found anything, and their hearts were suddenly determined, and the two of them walked around like a ghost door, their backs were cold and sweaty, and their resentment towards Qin Lin became higher and higher.
Whew~~ Zhao Shichen let out a sigh of relief, the hornet's eyes turned, and he forced the jackal to whisper: "Dong Weng, in the opinion of the students, Liu Liangfu is a very suspicious person, and the bottom account must be hidden somewhere in the room, and it was burned to ashes by a fire, and we have no trouble." Qin is making a fuss now, but he is poor in donkey skills, see how long he can toss? β
Yang Zhao kept reminding himself not to be alarmed, trying his best to stabilize his panicked mind just now, and when he heard Zhao Shichen's analysis that the bottom account had been burned, he became more and more determined, and his arrogance, which was the governor of Jiliao, also came back a little, and put the originally hurried pace more calmly, and said unhurriedly:
"Qin someone is planning to put the old man to death, how can the old man not repay the color? This official has been up and down for decades, and there are quite a few protΓ©gΓ©s in the court, humming......"
While speaking, the two walked over one after the other, Yang Zhao pretended to be puzzled and pointed to the old eagle's nest, and Ye Yu said: "Qin Qincha is really young, and he can also dig out the bird's nest to play, which is really interesting." β
Qin Lin was lowering his head and pondering, and when he heard the words, he looked at him with a smile: "I'm afraid that this official will come a little late, and Governor Yang will find out the news from Xingyuan, and he will also come here to talk about the young man in vain, and play with the trick of digging out the bird's nest!" β
Yang Zhao was choked and rolled his eyes, what Qin Lin said was as accurate as seeing it with his own eyes, just now he and Zhao Shichen really regretted why they didn't think of the flower and bird pattern alluding to the bird's nest first, just before Qin Lin found the bottom account!
Zhao Shichen grabbed it, and the potholed horse face was on the board:
"In ancient times, there were chickens and dogs, and now there are Qin Qincha digging out the bird's nest to investigate the case, hey, Qin Qincha has the style of the ancients, and it will be passed on as the beauty of the country and dynasty in the future, hum..."
Xu Wenchang rolled his strange eyes, and was about to help the lord sneer at him, but he saw something fall from the sky and slammed it on Zhao Shichen's back-to-back face, a pool of yellow, yellow and white. "What's the matter?" Zhao Shichen was annoyed
Wipe it on your face, it stinks.
"Scrape, scrape"
In the sky, the eagle flapped its wings and flew by, and its cry was very similar to a smug mockery.
It turned out that the two old eagles were angry when the fat man dismantled the nest, but they didn't dare to come down and peck at them, and then Zhao Shichen stretched out his feet and kicked the old eagle's nest on the ground, and the two flat-haired beasts suddenly woke up somehow, and pulled a bubble of guano on the top of his head.
"Character" Lu Fatzi shook his head and sighed repeatedly:
"The fat man has demolished all the bird's nests, and the old eagle is not yesterday; Mr. Zhao only kicked twice, and it on the top of his head, tsk, could it be that the old eagle also knows good people and bad people? β
Zhao Shichen was ashamed and forgiving, only to feel that everything was burning, but there was a puddle of bird droppings on his face, and he couldn't say anything to refute it, so he hurriedly found water to wash his face.
Looking at his embarrassed appearance, not to mention Lu Fatzi and Niu Dali, who laughed unscrupulously, even Zeng Xingwu's face was slightly smiling.
Beating the dog and looking at the owner's face, Zhao Shichen was deflated, Yang Zhao followed and begged the boss to be boring, but he wanted to hear what Qin Lin and them said, anyway, as long as Qin Lin didn't rush, he would be cheeky and not leave.
Qin Lin pondered carefully with his temples, the old eagle screamed endlessly, noisyly interfering with his train of thought, there was a mess in his mind, there seemed to be a thread, as long as he pulled it, he could untie this mess, but he couldn't pull it.
"Damn, I'll knock down the stinky old eagle for the chief!" The ox vigorously pulled out the electric bolt on his waist. ,
"You break their nests, and you don't allow them to scream twice?" Xu Wenchang stopped Niu Dali, he was having fun, seeing that the two old eagles were screaming, he simply asked the captain of the pro-soldier to climb again and put the bird's nest back, and sure enough, the two old eagles stopped screaming. Qin Lin's frowning Sichuan eyebrows suddenly stretched out, and he smiled: "Maybe our thinking is wrong from the direction, so we can't solve Liu Liangfu's death message." β
Xu Wenchang thought thoughtfully: "Sir, what do you mean?" β
Qin Lin pointed to the big tree where the old eagle made a nest: "Look at how tall this crooked-necked village is, it was not easy for our school captain brother to climb up and down just now, is Liu Liangfu this guy very convenient, you want to hide the account book there?" Isn't he afraid of being seen climbing trees? β
Listening to Qin Linyi, everyone also felt that something was wrong, Liu Liangfu was in his forties, his body was short and thin, he had been a master for many years, and his health was not much better, how could he climb such a tall village?
What's more, climbing the village is very conspicuous, as the food and salary master of the dignified governor's mansion, if he is discovered by others when he climbs to the village, I am afraid it will be difficult to find out the reason, and when it reaches the ears of Yang Zhao and Zhao Shichen, it will cause doubts, thus completely exposing his life-saving account.
Therefore, it is impossible for Liu Liangfu to hide the account book in the bird's nest! It should be a place where hiding or taking it is unlikely to attract the attention of others.
"The pattern on the plate is flowers and birds, since it has nothing to do with the bird's nest......" Lu Fatzi waved his fleshy hand excitedly, and as he spoke, he suddenly closed his mouth tightly and looked at Yang Zhao vigilantly.
"Ah, the old man still has official business to do, and he is unaccompanied, unaccompanied!" Yang Zhao made a gesture at Zeng Xingwu, Qin Lin, and Zhang Xiaoyang, and then left in a hurry, as if there was a ghost chasing behind his buttocks.
Lu Fatzi regretted it and slapped himself twice in the face:
"Oh no, since it's not a bird's nest, the ledger is definitely buried under the flowers and trees in the Governor's Mansion, I shouldn't say it, Old Thief Yang is going to dig it up!"
Zeng Xingwu was also shocked, he was not an ordinary person, looking at Yang Zhao and Zhao Shichen's actions were very suspicious, and now he was more and more suspicious of these two, hearing Lu Fatzi say this, he wondered whether to use the power of the holy decree and rushed into the governor's palace to conduct a carpet search.
However, in this way, he will completely tear his face with Yang Zhao, if he can't find evidence, he will only be afraid that it will be difficult to explain later......
"Zeng Chuanlang doesn't have to be embarrassed" Qin Lin smiled slightly, and said quite confidently: "The message left by Liu Liangfu will never be ambiguous, denying the bird's nest, haha, the lower officials can expect that the account book will never be under the flower bed." β
Oh, Zeng Xingwu agreed, and then looked at Qin Lin in surprise, secretly wondering: How does he know what I am thinking? Ho, this person's ability to observe words and colors is like penetrating people's hearts!
Xu Wenchang agrees with Qin Lin's analysis, he and Liu Liangfu have known each other for a long time, but they are not the same, but they also know that this guy is deceitful and suspicious by nature, and he will never be willing to be a ghost when it comes to life and death, and the information he left should be simple, direct, and quite ingenious.
"Yes" Qin Lin molded his chin and said carefully: "So I think we are thinking too complicated, but we have gone astray, Liu Liangfu should give us detectives a more obvious and easy-to-understand code, so that it is convenient to avenge himself." β
In solving the case, the goal of the dead Liu Liangfu and Qin Lin is the same, so it is impossible for him to leave a puzzle that is too complicated and difficult to solve.
"Simple, obvious" Niu Dali's mallet-like fingers scratched his scalp, and suddenly said in surprise: "Isn't it the position of the plate, and the ledger is buried underneath?" β
"It's not a small possibility" Qin Lin nodded, and added: "Even if it's not, this feeling is very close." β
Lu Fatzi only heard the previous sentence, laughed and slapped the cow vigorously: "Old Niu, you can solve the case by stealing the wooden head?" Haha, follow Chief Qin, stupid people can become smart! β
Xu Wenchang stared at Lu Yuanzhi with a smile, and said in his heart You are a fool, Niu Dali has a simple face and a bright heart, but I am afraid that he will be older than you.
Everyone immediately went to the scene of the fire and excavated where the plate had fallen. ,
At the same time, Yang Zhao also led his own soldiers and soldiers, and began to dig up the flower beds near Liu Liangfu's small courtyard in the governor's palace across the wall.
Of course, the result is obvious, the entire Governor's Mansion has been dug into a large construction site, and nothing has been found, so angry that Yang Zhao is panting, his heart is like a cat scratching, and Zhao Shichen, who has just washed his face, is also anxious.
The two villains were at a loss, thinking that a fire would burn Liu Liangfu's residence to the ground, and it would be a disaster forever, but only now did they know that they had not found the bottom account after all, and watched it turn into ashes.
Hearing that the soldiers came to report that Qin Lin was digging Liu Liangfu's residence again, where the plate was broken, the two guys suddenly realized again, and sure enough, as Qin Lin said, they deeply regretted why they didn't rush to dig.
Well, this time it was impossible, because the fire scene was tightly protected, and Yang Zhao would never have dug it unilaterally.
Let's go and see, the two of them hurried to the fire as if they were being chased by ghosts.
Niu Dali's speculation once again fell short, a very large and deep pit was dug underground, and there was no bottom account, Qin Lin was still empty-handed.
But Yang Zhao and Zhao Shichen didn't dare to ridicule them anymore, they came so twice, their hearts almost left their positions, if they came here a few more times, Qin Lin wouldn't have to solve the case, and he would scare the two culprits to death first!
"Huh~~ old man, old man......"
Yang Zhao gasped, his face frighteningly blue.
Zhao Shichen's jackal voice stopped yesterday. Holding on to the wall and constantly wiping his chest, his heart almost jumped out of his throat.
Lu Fatzi and Niu Dali stood on the edge of the big pit dug out, looked at each other, they were dumbfounded, and said to Qin Lin in frustration: "Sir, look at ......"
Qin Lin was not so disappointed, and touched his chin: "Although it's not, this feeling is very familiar to me, only a layer of window paper is missing." β
At this time, Qi Jiguang led Qi Jin and the border army soldiers, carrying many food boxes and rice bowls from outside, and walked over with a smile:
"Ladies and gentlemen, Lord Yang, Mr. Zhao, Ben Shi has been loyal to the country all day long, this noble body still has to be taken care of, Mu En bought a little wine and food from the restaurant, please use it."
Lu Yuanzhi's stomach cooed at the right time, and he grabbed it to open one of the big food boxes, and it was still steaming hot on a cold day.
Qi Jiguang was a little proud: "This is a specially made double-layer food box, which contains food, and it won't be cold for half a day." β
Qin Lin suddenly frowned, looked at Qi Jiguang as if he didn't know, and said in a daze: "What are you talking about, what is this food box in?" "Of course the food box contains food!" Qi Jiguang blinked in confusion. Wow Ka Ka Ka ~~ Qin Lin suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed in vain, and then rushed over and patted Qi Jiguang's arm hard: "Brother Qi, thank you for breaking the sky!" β
