solve a case
Malsham hurriedly closed the door, for fear that outsiders would see it.
She was a little angry and a little helpless, and asked, "Where did you get this from?" ”
Gran didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, and said with a grin, "I bought it from an old man, and he specially sent so many." ”
Marsham: "My good man, do you want to rebel, I don't know that the hot city is not allowed to buy fireworks without permission?" And Wan'er, why don't you stop Gran from being stupid? ”
Li Wan'er smiled embarrassedly: "I didn't think about it so much at the time, and it was only when I came out that I realized that I was cheated by the old man." ”
"Well, really, you have to get rid of these things quickly, so as not to be discovered, and when the time comes, no one will believe them, then it's called asking for trouble, Jirek, you go get some water......"
"Don't, don't, Malsham, we can go abroad and release it!"
Gran snatched the things in her hand and handed them to Li Wan'er behind her.
Malsham walked up to Li Wan'er and stretched out his hand: "Wan'er, give it to me." ”
Li Wan'er had no choice but to give it to the captain in front of Gran, and Jirek brought a basin of water and drenched the fireworks.
Gran was a little sad, but he couldn't say anything.
Ruozhu looked thoughtful: "Wan'er, tell me about the appearance and characteristics of that old man." ”
"Well~~~ gray hair, long beard, a little hunchbacked, a mole under his eyes, about seventy or eighty years old."
"Is that him?" Lei Yu took out a portrait and placed it on the table.
"Yes, yes, that's him!" Gran snatched the word.
Feng Ziliu picked up the portrait and thought for a while: "Do you want to say that he is the one who secretly hoarded gunpowder and blew up the city lord's house a few years ago?" ”
Wakatake nodded.
Marsham: "What are you talking about?" Could it be that this old man has something to do with the 'ban'? ”
Wakatake: "That's good. ”
At this time, someone pushed the door and entered, which frightened the people in the house.
Xiao Lei: "What kind of expression do you have?" And what doors do you close in broad daylight? Are you stealing delicious food behind my back? ”
Taslo gave Ray a punch to the top of the head to silence him.
Taslo looked serious: "Something happened outside." ”
"Did someone blow up somewhere?"
Taslo nodded in surprise.
Marsham: "Ruozhu, how do you know what Taslow said?" ”
Wakatake: "I also heard it by chance from Kaede Stream. In the morning, when everyone was busy, I saw Feng Ziliu drinking tea alone and was very lonely, so I went downstairs with him, you and I chatted a word, and for some reason I talked about the 'ban', and I had nothing to do with Lei Yu to go out to investigate. ”
Lei Yu told everyone what he had found: "This man acts every year on the day before the fireworks festival, but he has never harmed anyone, and no one knows why he did it or what benefits he will get after doing it." And he will leave something ironic at the castle lord's house every year, at first Ruozhu and I thought that the problem was the castle lord, but in the mouth of the people of Recheng, I learned that the castle lord is a great man who is loved, and he makes countless contributions to the city every year, and his reputation is excellent. It is said that he is not only outstanding in political governance, but also enviable in the harmonious relationship between his family, and he is a perfect person in everyone's hearts. ”
Ruozhu picked up the thunderstorm's words: "He is right, everyone is grateful and admired when they talk about the city lord. Since we ordinary people can't get in touch with the city lord, we can only check from the old man, and it just so happens that Wan'er and Gran have seen others again, I think ......"
Feng Ziliu: "You want them to take you to him?" I advise you to give up, after all, no one is a fool, and if a person commits a crime, he must have already gone into hiding, and no one can catch him every year, which shows that he is very cunning, doesn't it? ”
Ruozhu did not give up: "Taslo, where did the explosion happen just now?" ”
"Hypermarket."
Marsham grabbed Ruozhu and said: "More things are better than less things, you put away your curiosity, tomorrow is the 'fireworks festival', I don't want anyone to have an accident." ”
Feng Ziliu looked outside the door: "It's not early, are you hungry?" ”
Gran nodded.
"Then I'll go out and buy something to eat and come back, do you have anything you want to eat?"
Gran: "Hey, Fengziliu, are you yang?" ”
Except for Li Wan'er and Feng Ziliu, everyone was puzzled.
Feng Ziliu took out a talisman from his waist and asked, "Gran, do you also know about the horror that happened the night before the 'Hot City Fireworks Festival'?" ”
Gran nodded.
Feng Ziliu put the talisman in front of everyone: "Few people will know about this now? I guess the old man told you? ”
Gran: "Yes, it's true, the old man said, do you know something?" ”
"I know a little bit about it."
Li Wan'er touched the talisman and said, "Is this talisman given to you by the witch?" ”
"Yes, but I haven't experienced such a thing, in fact, I was born in the hot city, because the adults were afraid that something would happen to me, so they sent me out of the city when I was two years old, and my maternal great-grandmother was the witch in the story, she died a year ago, and she gave me this talisman before she died."
Ruozhu: "You mean the hero is the old man." ”
Feng Ziliu nodded: "That's right." ”
Li Wan'er: "At that time, when the old man told this story, he used the first person, I thought he made it up, but now it seems that he is." ”
Feng Ziliu: "Tell me what you want to eat, even if I have Fu protection, I'm afraid to see those things." ”
Glenn: "Bring me a roast chicken and a plate of peanuts." ”
Jirek: "Help me bring me a good bottle of wine." ”
......
The Lord's House.
Steward: "City Lord, the things you need for the fireworks festival have been prepared. ”
The city lord smiled: "Very good, I hope that this year's fireworks energy saving will be grander than before, so that it will attract investment from businessmen from other cities, and the hot city will develop better and better." ”
Steward: "City Lord, this is a letter I received in the hall. ”
"Go down."
The lord of the castle took the letter, and there was a piece of paper with a picture of a pig who had cut his belly with a dagger and ate his intestines with relish, next to a group of children who had stopped the pig from eating his intestines.
The lord swept away the letter with a fire.
"Damn, it's this man again."
......
Feng Ziliu returned home before dark.
"Here's what everyone wants!"
Gran and Taslo were already hungry, and before they could get started, they devoured them.
Li Wan'er handed them water and said with a smile: "Slow down, you two are careful to choke." ”
Feng Ziliu poured wine for everyone and said, "On the way back just now, I heard passers-by say that the city lord received an insulting letter this time, the content of which was a drawing of a pig, the pig took a dagger and cut his belly, and ate his intestines with relish, next to a group of children who prevented the pig from eating intestines. I think this pig is the city lord himself, as for cutting the belly and eating intestines, it may be an allusion to the city lord's stupidity, and the child may refer to people like the old man. ”
Ruozhu: "I'm curious how the old man put the belief in God in the city lord's house unconsciously, and the city lord's house must have strengthened its manpower in the past few days, how did he hide so many eyes." ”
Feng Ziliu: "Didn't I just say that there is a group of children in the painting, it means that someone in the city lord's family is secretly colluding with the old man, it seems that the old man has a lot of like-minded partners, but this shouldn't be our care." ”
Jirek: "Ruozhu, you don't want to go to the castle lord's house to find out the news, do you?" ”
"Yes, I have the idea."
Marsham: "You didn't seem to care about anything before, why are you so obsessed with this?" ”
Feng Ziliu helped Ruozhu explain: "Once a person's curiosity is aroused, it will be out of control, and whether it is the old man or the city lord, there must be something important to hide, otherwise the old man will not risk his life every year to insist on doing these things." ”
Jirek: "I'd like to find out. ”
Feng Ziliu drank down: "Otherwise, if you really want to know why, it is better to sneak into the city lord's house tomorrow night to have a good time, after all, the designated place to set off fireworks is in the courtyard of the city lord's house." ”
Gilric: "It's not easy to get into this city lord's house, is it?" ”
Feng Ziliu: "I think with the team's current reputation, the city lord will definitely welcome it." ”
Marsham: "Who else wants to go?" ”
Taslo and Gran raised their hands.
Marsham: "In that case, the family should be in order, let's all go together, but say in advance, don't cause trouble." ”
......
At dusk the next day, the Zhiyong Regiment waited at the door of the city lord's house, but except for them, the rest of them were invited.
Doorman: "Wait! Where's your invitation? ”
Jirek hippie smile: "Hehe, we don't have big brother, but we are from the Zhiyong Group." ”
Doorman: "I'm still the palace master!" Don't pretend to be a Zhiyong group for me, I only accept the invitation, and if you don't, get out of the way! ”
Fengzi Liumian did not change color and his heart did not beat, and he directly stuffed a bag of money into the doorman: "This big brother is a little restless, you can see if what he said is true by looking at our system introduction." ”
"You're still sensible," the doorman checked and confirmed the information, "Go in!" ”
Jirek winked at Kaede Ziliu and said, "You've got yours." ”
Feng Ziliu found a corner and sat down: "We just need to wait until it gets dark, the city lord will naturally come out, and that old man will definitely come to get involved, I have a hunch that this year's fireworks festival will not be as smooth as before." ”
Xiao Lei: "Daddy, I want to go and shhh ”
Ruozhu touched his head and said, "Do you want Daddy to go with you?" ”
"No, I want Sister Wan'er to accompany me." After speaking, he took Li Wan'er's hand and left.
Feng Ziliu: "Your son doesn't stick to you, you usually scold him, right?" ”
Ruozhu: "Nonsense, I can't give it up." ”
Taslo: "That's because my Wan'er is so attractive!" ”
Gran: "I don't know which of Wan'er's tendons is wrong, and I will marry you!" ”
Taslo: "You thousand-year-old single dog won't understand!" ”
When Gran heard this, he was instantly unhappy: "I definitely don't care about the rest of me when you say it, but it's your fault to talk about my pain, see if I don't kill you!" ”
A black line on Malsham's face.
......
Xiaoxiao followed behind Xiao Lei, and Xiao Lei took Li Wan'er's hand: "Sister Wan'er, can we go around here?" Anyway, it's still a little bit before it gets dark. ”
"This ......"
"Sister Wan'er, you're the best." Xiao Lei is really unbearable.
"Well, only for a while."
The two of them passed by a bush, Xiao Xiao suddenly became fierce, and then protected Xiao Lei.
Li Wan'er took out a dagger and slowly approached the grass.
"Hehe, do you still know me?" The old man came out of the grass and scared Li Wan'er to the ground.
Li Wan'er squatted down and whispered, "Uncle, get out of here quickly, there are portraits of you posted everywhere." ”
"Sister Wan'er, I'm afraid." Xiao Lei hid behind Li Wan'er and kept pulling her clothes.
The old man took out a piece of candy bear and said, "Don't be afraid, little friend, I'm not a bad old man." ”
Xiao Lei had a big heart, took the candy and ate it.
The old man patted the leaves on his clothes and said, "Are the fireworks beautiful?" ”
"Sorry, ruined."
Old man: "It's okay, it's because of the 'ban', I shouldn't have sold your things, I'm really confused." ”
Li Wan'er helped him and said, "By the way, uncle, are you really here to sabotage the fireworks festival?" ”
"I have this plan, but I am not destroying the fireworks festival, but a conspiracy."
"Conspiracy?"
"Do you remember the story I told you?"
"Yes."
"Actually, those people are not weird things, but ghosts made by the city lord."
"How's that?"
"When I was fifteen years old, I was convinced of what I saw, until the night before the fireworks festival more than ten years ago, when I went to pay respects to my dead brother, and I came to that alley again. I think I'm old enough to be afraid. I walked slowly into the alley, but fortunately the lights in the alley were bright, and just when I thought I would never meet those things again, something strange happened. A thick fog covered the entire alley, and there was nothing to see two meters away, and it was with the protection of this thick fog that I overheard the conspiracy of the city lord. The establishment of the fireworks festival is just a pretense, all of this is a bureau set up by the city lord, it turns out that there are treasured magic ores growing under the alley, magic ores have a unique use for some people in the outer city, and the city lord monopolizes these resources for money. The night before the fireworks festival, it is also the best time to mine ore, I don't know where the city lord invited a bit of sacred, made those scary things, the purpose is to avoid others from discovering, even if this magic ore is emptied on the same day, it will grow again in the next year, and the magic ore is regenerated by absorbing the yang energy of the people of the hot city, so some people call our hot city 'the city of death', of course, once these magic ores are mature, they will stop absorbing people's yang energy. As for why the fireworks festival was held the day after the mining, I think he was celebrating the black money he had made. ”
"There! Grab me! "The patrol guards found the old man.
"Girl, in order not to drag you down, I'll run away separately, goodbye!"
Li Wan'er saw the old man being arrested with her own eyes, so she had no choice but to pull Xiao Lei and run away.
......
Marsham: "Why did you go?" I'm only back now, and I'm still sweating profusely. ”
"I have something to tell you!"
Li Wan'er told the truth in 1510......
Feng Ziliu: "It seems that the old man can't run away this time." ”
Ruozhu: "Do you know where that alley is, Fengziliu?" ”
Kaede Ziliu: "I know. ”
Ruozhu: "If you want to save the old man, you must find the handle of the city lord, before the fireworks start, we have to find the city lord, the old man must be taken to where he goes." ”
......
"Even if you kill me today, there will be thousands of more of you who will expose your crimes!"
"Really?"
The lord gave him a whip and said, "I am a beloved lord of the city, and do you think anyone will believe the nonsense of you and your comrades?" ”
"Then do you dare to admit the bad things you have done!"
"Then what's not to dare? I found that the quality of this year's magic ore is not as good as in previous years, and I plan to bury some people alive to see if I can improve the quality, so you can be the first person! Hahaha......"
Ruozhu split open the stone door: "Really? It's up to us to say yes or not! ”
As soon as the maple flute sounded, the city lord and his men were swept up by the wind.
Li Wan'er untied the rope on the old man's body and rescued him.
The city lord shouted: "Even if you arrest me, I will not admit it!" ”
Lei Yu: "Don't worry, you'll find out later!" ”
It turns out that the 'rain' of the thunderstorm is combined with the 'thunder' of Wakatake, and the small power of the cherished beast is borrowed, and when the magic reaches a certain level, the scene can be reproduced.
In the end, the lord of the city confessed his crime in public, stepped down, and was imprisoned, and the lord of the city abolished the 'ban', and the old man's business also boomed......
This year's fireworks are even more colorful than in previous years.
