When I first met Ling Zexu, he gave me the feeling that he was...... It's very nonexistent.

But I know now that that's just the appearance.

Maybe it's still a disguised appearance!

In fact, under his thin torso, there is an extremely fiery energy, once you act, it is like a running bull with a tail lit, and you can even feel the hot wind blowing in your face when he passes by.

Under the influence of this momentum, the palace guards, who were originally reluctant to act, quickly changed their attitude and actively matched Ling Zexu's orders.

Because they all felt the seriousness and persistence in Ling Zehu's heart.

A serious person will always be worthy of respect.

Of course, you might say that some people are serious about doing bad things.

That's right, then please kill him with respect.

After a few idle words, Ling Zexu's arrangement was almost done, so he personally led a large number of people and began to search the side halls one by one.

This process can be very boring or interesting.

It's boring because the search itself is boring, but the results are disappointing - I can't find Happy King, and I can't find any suspicious clues.

But it's interesting......

You can be sure that there are traces of several young women in the room (dirty clothes, belly pockets, silk handkerchiefs, etc.).

You can find a whole box of embroidered spring palaces under Heliansheng's bed, many of which are still glued together and difficult to uncover.

You can pull out a smelly crotch cloth from the gap in the thickly padded soft chair where General He sat - in the palace, only the young guards on duty would wear this thing.

Even Ling Zexu's own guest room turned out a lot of things that were not suitable for display in public.

Of course, no one cares about these little details.

Even if he cares, it makes you think he doesn't care, doesn't he?

Soon, Wang Ziyun's room was searched.

I have to say that Ling Zexu's search methods are really first-class, and many details that I have not paid attention to have been turned over by him.

For example, in a bed (the one I slept on), several elongated heads were found.

For example, on the rope hanging from the ceiling, several fine pieces of silver were shaken off.

For example, on the floor in the corner of the room, there are some scorching marks.

But none of these things matter.

After all, in a room where people come and go, I don't know how many objects and traces remain, how can you just show something, it must be related to the case?

Next, it comes to the most critical place.

Xuanji Room, the place where the Happy King disappeared!

I'm worried: Is it better for us to find a clue, or not to find it?

In fact, the most advantageous situation is to find a clue, but the clue is only known to me.

That's why Wang Ziyun assigned me to Ling Zexu as an assistant.

The question is, can I get a good deal in the hands of Commander Ling, this old fritter who handled the case?

As before, the relevant people (Wang Ziyun, Heliansheng, and them) were waiting outside the room, and Ling Zexu took me and ten selected palace guards into the guest room to conduct a search.

"Little one." As soon as I entered the room, Ling Zexu said to me: "After searching so many rooms, I see that you also have some eyesight, now I will test you—how many people have been in this room in the last two hours?" ”

I was terrified.

What an insidious question!

Of course, I know how many people have been in this room, but can this be answered casually?

But if I can't answer at all, Ling Zexu will gradually empty my power and marginalize me on the grounds that I don't know how to investigate cases.

In fact, he has been doing it all the time.

Not to mention anything else, if I hadn't shown a few hands in the previous search (now embroidered like Spring Palace or something), those guards wouldn't even want to bird me.

So Ling Zexu's question, I have to answer.

Not only answer, but also answer beautifully!

"Total ...... Eighteen people! I paced around the room, repeatedly.

"So much?" The wrinkles on Ling Zexu's face deepened.

"Of course." I said, "Aren't there already twelve of the ten brothers here, plus Commander Ling and the villain?" ”

Hearing my almost gag remark, some of the guards looked disdainful.

How do they know, just this sentence, on their psychological level, removed me from the list of 'people who have been in the room'.

Next, even if there were any clues related to me, the guards would subconsciously think that I had just left them, so they relaxed their vigilance and did not report to Ling Zexu.

Of course, this is only the ideal situation, but I planted this seed and was always prepared.

"Oh? And what about the remaining six? Ling Zexu said again.

There are six people left, of course, Wang Ziyun, Happy King, Xuan Ji, Xiaohong, Green Swallow, and Silver Hook Scholar.

"Among the six people, Miss Xuanji and her maid account for two." I said.

Xuanji's room, she has stayed with the maid, so it is naturally normal.

"You see, the two large trays of cold wine and fruit on this table indicate that two servants or servants of the palace once came." I'll say it again.

This kind of wooden carved tray itself is quite heavy, plus bronze containers, ice cubes and food, two trays, it is normal for two people to send in.

But what we have to do is so secretive, how can it be possible to let the maid and maid into the room, this is completely Xiaohong's hand to bring in.

It doesn't matter how the facts are, the key is to have a reasonable explanation, and by the way, confuse their way of thinking about investigating the case.

"There are still two people left......," I muttered, "I guess, it should be Chief Fei and Meng Weisi!" ”

"Is that them?" A hint of discoloration flashed in Ling Zexu's eyes, "How can you see it?" ”

"I just said it all, I guess." I smiled slightly, "Of course, it's not a blind guess, you take a closer look, are there many subtle traces of activity under the bed?" ”

"It's a trace that someone has searched for." One of the guards exclaimed.

"That's right, Xuan Ji didn't live in this place originally, the reason why she stayed here was rearranged by Manager Fei, with Manager Fei's carefulness, he must come over to check it out in person." I said jokingly, "Why did Manager Fei rearrange Xuanji's residence?" The reason is very simple, everyone knows it in their hearts, so I won't say it - but I don't have to say it, Meng Weisi is responsible for the safety of the prince, he has to take action, so he will naturally come here to check. ”

"It makes a lot of sense, whether the truth is the case, just go out and ask." Ling Ze said meaningfully, "However, according to what you said, it seems that there is still a person missing." ”

"Who?" My eyebrows jumped.

"Naturally, it's ......" Ling Zexu stepped in front of me and said slowly: "Happy King!" ”
