"I have an intuition, this blue and white porcelain plate is Liu Liangfu's death message to us!" Qin Lin flexed his fingers and tapped on the tabletop.

After years of criminal investigation work, countless major cases have been solved, and a keen intuition has already been formed, perhaps some imperceptible clues have not been noticed at the surface level, but the subconscious has long been alert, so it has become this magical intuition.

In Liu Huanzhi's serial murder case, the attention attracted by the rhino horn with the pattern of the sky that became the key node in solving the case proved the accuracy and sensitivity of Qin Lin's intuition.

Xu Wenchang tugged at his beard and nodded in agreement with Qin Lin's opinion, Liu Liangfu's surname was cunning and suspicious, and it was very likely that this plate was deliberately taken off the table by him before his death, trying to hint at something to the later detectives.

Of course, it is not enough to solve the case only by intuition, Qin Lin listed the key words related to the blue and white porcelain Bafang plate: "I think Liu Liangfu can tell us with this plate, there are probably two aspects, one is the origin and name of the plate itself, Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain Bafang plate, which has the words Jingde, blue and white, and Bafang; The second is the pattern on it, the pattern of flowers and birds. ”

Xu Wenchang's cloudy pupils suddenly lit up: "Could it be a hint of a person's name or a place name, and he hid that ledger in someone's hand or in a hidden place?" ”

Qin Lin denied the former: "It's impossible to have a name, this guy is cunning and suspicious, and he is a foreigner, who can he trust if he is not familiar with life here?" ”

But the latter, probably the surname is indeed very high.

"We're all outsiders, who knows the name of the place here?" The cow vigorously stretched out his mallet-like fingers and scratched his head.

Lu Fatzi slapped his thigh: "Hey, it's not simple?" Just ask the servant woman of the hotel! ”

So saying, he prepared to go out and find someone.

"Wait," Xu Wenchang stopped the fat man: "Send the captain of the pro-soldier school to the street, arrest two tea customers in the teahouse, and then Lu Yuanzhi will find another subordinate from the Qin Mission, and interrogate them in the three houses respectively." ”

Xu Wenchang deserves to be the top master of Shaoxing, Qin Lin nodded and secretly praised him for being thoughtful.

Soon, two tea guests and a servant were arrested.

The servants are good at doing things in the Qin mission, and the fright is limited; The two tea guests sat in the teahouse drinking tea and listening to books, but they were suddenly caught by a group of Jinyi lieutenants, and they were really shocked and depressed, and they didn't know how their flat-headed people got into trouble with this group of uncles.

Coincidentally, among the tea guests who were caught was Qin Lin sitting next to him when he was listening to a book in the teahouse, this person saw the foreign guest who was full of firewood just now, and at this time he was already wearing a flying fish suit and a wingless black veil, and he became a minister, and he was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed:

"The villain is talkative, and the villain talks nonsense. The old man of Qincha clearly saw that the ancient and modern were all over the world, and the Yang family would be in front of Yang Guozhong, Yang Guozhong was a native of the Song Dynasty, and the Yang family would be the ...... of the Tang Dynasty."

"What is this?" Xu Wenchang looked at Qin Lin inexplicably.

Niu Dali and Lu Fatzi laughed and fell, Qin Lin comforted the middle-aged man with a dark face, but this person was scared enough, where could he listen?

The pro-soldiers and lieutenants couldn't help but say that they locked them up in three houses and asked them to name the local place names with words such as "blue and white", "eight directions", "flowers", and "birds", from a township and a fort to the names of restaurants and teahouses.

The three of them were very frightened, for fear that if they were careless, they would be planted in the hands of this group of wolf-like captains in brocade clothes, searching their stomachs and thinking about the names of places, lest they miss a little.

The final result is that there are no big and small place names called these names in the small Miyun County, but there is a Mopan Village more than 50 miles away, with the word "Pan".

"Ah," Lu Fatzi slapped his thigh, and his little eyes widened: "It's this mill village, Liu Liangfu definitely hid the bottom account there, so he used the plate to hint at us!" ”

Qin Lin frowned, feeling that something was wrong, and asked after a while: "More than fifty miles away, does Liu Liangfu have any horses?" Will he ride a horse? ”

Xu Wenchang also shook his head: "It shouldn't be there, no matter how cautious Liu Liangfu is, it is impossible to hide the bottom account more than fifty miles away, and he has to run back and forth on a horse for half a day, which is too inconvenient." ”

If the plate really points to the place where the bottom account is hidden, then it is most likely in Miyun County, not far from Liu Liangfu's residence, so that he can easily take and hide it, and put the bottom account under his control at any time.

If the Mopanzhai is only a few miles away from the county seat, it may be that the surname is not small, and Qin Lin must also have to go there, but more than fifty miles away, Liu Liangfu has no nerves, why hide the little book so far?

Qin Lin instructed Lu Fatzi to give two taels of silver to each of the three people who cooperated with the investigation, and asked them to stay for a while and not leave for the time being, so as not to leak the direction of detection.

"The key suspicion area is within the county seat, but there are no place names with keywords such as 'plate', 'blue and white', 'flowers and birds' in the county seat......" Qin Lin rubbed his temples, this dumb riddle made him feel very uncomfortable with all his strength.

"Flowers, birds......" Niu vigorously muttered, a little distracted.

The fat man pushed him: "Old Niu, what can you do?" Just your elm head, can you figure it out? ”

Niu Dali didn't fight with the fat man like before, but frowned and thought: "When you talk about birds, I suddenly remembered that there was a big old eagle's nest on the tree outside Liu Liangfu's yard just now, would he hide the account book in it?" ”

Quite possibly!

Qin Lin and Xu Wenchang glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise that could not be concealed from each other's pupils.

This plate is a flower and bird pattern, and Liu Liangfu is very likely to hide the bottom account in the bird's nest!

Qin Lin called Zeng Xingwu, and the group rode on horses and rushed to the governor's mansion, the biting cold wind was blowing in their faces, but their hearts were hot.

The Governor's Mansion, Yang Zhao, the governor of Jiliao, and Zhao Shichen, the chief copywriter, each held a Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain eight-sided plate that was exactly the same as Liu Liangfu's plate, frowned and pondered, trying to unlock the password in front of Qin Lin.

But they almost broke their heads, and they didn't realize anything.

Suddenly, the servant hurriedly came up and reported that Qin Qincha was directing his Jinyi lieutenant to climb the crooked-necked tree outside the small cross-courtyard, which looked like he was going to dig a bird's nest.

"Ahh Yang Zhao and Zhao Shichen screamed in unison, and the plate in their hands fell and shattered on the ground.

Liu Liangfu used the flower and bird patterns on the plate to allude to the fact that the ledger was hidden in the bird's nest!

The two of them were frightened, after all, they didn't go to the Yellow River to die, and they went over to see the situation with trepidation.

But seeing that the captain had already brought the old eagle's nest down from the tree, Qin Lin watched from the side, pinching his chin with his hand, and his eyebrows were tightly locked into Sichuan characters.
