Mei Xiaoren stood in the square, helplessly watching Su Li being taken away.

When the crowd dispersed, her classmates passed by her, and there were always one or two who couldn't help but look at her a few more times, and discussed as they walked: "I'm afraid that Su Da Fool won't be able to eat and walk around now, and how long can some people be arrogant." ”

"Jinshan Academy will not allow the people of the Shu clan to be presumptuous."

Mei Xiaoren was still holding the wooden sword in his hand, and his thumb and fingertips were gently rubbing the blade of the sword. Her lips are dead and her teeth are cold, she and Su Li are grasshoppers on a rope in the academy, Su Li can't stand on his feet, and these people will only be more proud.

Jinshan Academy, why can it only accommodate the corporals, some people try their best to push them away, but there is no door

Mei Xiaoren walked up to the Star Picking Cliff, it was not dark at this time, it was not the time for her to meet Chu Yu, but he waited on it unexpectedly.

Even though he didn't live up to his master's expectations, Mei Xiaoren still couldn't be happy in his heart. She is not good at hiding her emotions, so the sorrow between her eyebrows is all visible to Chu Yu.

Chu Yu also raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did you see what happened just now?"

Chu Yu nodded, his expression was flat, as if he didn't take the right and wrong in his eyes to heart.

He only remembered anything else, looking at Mei Xiaoren's arm, "The sleeves are rolled up." ”

Mei Xiaoren obediently rolled up his sleeves.

Chu Yu took out a small porcelain box and smeared the ointment inside on the bruises on her arm.

The ointment was cold, but his fingertips were warm, and the combination of cold and warm soothed her dull pain a lot.

Chu Yu drugged all the injuries that could be seen, and asked her, "Is there anything else?"

Yes, on her shoulders, she couldn't pick up her clothes in front of him, so she could only ignore the pain and shake her head.

Mei Xiaoren was about to put down her sleeves, but saw Chu Yu raise her arm and put it next to hers. Chu Yu's arms are no different from ordinary men, but such a comparison sets off her slender and abnormally thin arms.

Chu Yu discovered this problem when he was just taking medicine. Mei Xiaoren's fingers were slender, even the entire arm was thin, and it seemed to be coordinated, but he couldn't help but make the suspicion he had just put down resurfaced in his heart.

Mei Xiaoren raised his eyes to look at Chu Yu, just in time to meet his gaze, and could see what he wanted to ask.

"I'm skinny." She said calmly, with a smile on her lips, and quipped: "Or maybe my bones are strange, and it is a sign of extraordinary talent." ”

Some people chose to withdraw their gaze and silently cover the medicine box in their hands, even speechless.

Mei Xiaoren lowered his sleeves, and his smile dissipated. She walked to the big stone and sat down, pondering and saying, "That Wen Gongzi, what does he want to do?"

"Do you know what kind of official the Ministry of Industry is Shangshu?"

"Six Shangshu, officials with real power." Mei Xiaoren replied casually.

Shangshu is on par with the rank of a scholar, but the power in his hand is more real than that of a scholar. If today's scholars of the Wei University did not rely on the Prime Minister, their status would not be as good as the six books.

"The son of the Wenfu was injured in the academy, and the Wenfu will definitely intervene, how sure are you that you can exonerate him"

Mei Xiaoren still thinks like that in his heart, there is any kind of blame

Flaws can be found, but the flaws are hidden deep and shallow.

She couldn't say she was completely uncertain, nor was she full of confidence, but she was equal to each other, and with a little courage, she replied, "Six points." ”

"The Ministry of Industry Shangshu can dispose of the student with a casual word, you are six points sure, how to save people"

Mei Xiaoren immediately said: "Find the evidence, make the case public, and then tell the truth, then the adults of the court can still refer to the deer as a horse."

"That's up to you to find out the truth."

"I've got some eyebrows in mind." Mei Xiaoren said, "Wen Bin blocked the sword very strangely, he must have something to do with this case, and he will not be just an innocent passerby." ”

Chu Yu looked ahead and said lightly: "A person that you can't contact and verify for the time being, even if there is something strange, it is not the best clue, because you can't find it." ”

Mei Xiaoren frowned slightly. The first breakthrough point she thought of was rejected by Lord Chu

Chu Yu can easily deny her idea of investigating the case, indicating that he should have better clues in his heart.

She raised her eyes and saw Chu Yu standing on the edge of the cliff. I don't know whether it is to "follow the customs", or in order to be inconspicuous, he is also wearing a wide-sleeved cloth robe in the academy, a plain azure color, at this time he stands against the wind, and he has a bit of fairy wind bones.

"Master, ask for guidance." Mei Xiaoren shouted.

Chu Yu looked back, not at her, but at what she put aside, and then moved his gaze to her face.

Mei Xiaoren followed and took a look, and there was her wooden sword beside her.

"Sword," she asked, confused.

She had thought about this clue, but it was not Su Li who opened the sword and quenched the poison, and it would be difficult for her to follow the sword to investigate.

"You mean that I am going to find out who is the one who is using the sword."

Chu Yu turned to face her and asked, "You will only follow the clues step by step to investigate the case."

"Of course." Mei Xiaoren replied, "In the past, when there was a case, I would first go to the scene to extract evidence and dig clues, and then ask witnesses and interrogate suspects, and after gradual scrutiny, most of them could get an answer." ”

"You don't have the right to interrogate any suspects right now, and you don't have any witnesses."

"Then what should I do" Mei Xiaoren continued to ask, "find someone to witness"

"No one here will testify for a Shu student, and you are bound to find no witness to prove that he did not commit a crime."

This road was pointed out to her by Chu Yu, Mei Xiaoren had never thought alone before, if it weren't for his traction, she would have been unable to figure out his train of thought for a while, so she said: "Please also ask the master to make it clear." ”

"Do the opposite, look for evidence of the mastermind's crime. Similarly, if you can't follow the clue, you can work backwards. Chu Yu continued, "Based on your understanding of the people and things in the academy, let's assume a mastermind first, check his recent actions, and deduce whether he did it." ”

Mei Xiaoren was still embarrassed: "If you want to assume the mastermind, you must at least know his motives"

Chu Yu's attention returned to the sword, and said, "You think this is just a drama of planting and blaming the blame, don't forget, the sword that saw blood in the wounding case is a murder weapon." He looked at her again and asked, "What is the murder weapon?"

"Murderous thing" Mei Xiaoren followed Chu Yu's instructions, and then pondered another possibility, frowning

said, "The mastermind didn't come to Su Li, his real purpose was to kill people with a knife, but he just chose Su Li's hand."

Thinking of the mastermind's motive, another doubt suddenly arose in her heart: "But there are hundreds of people in the academy, how do I know who wants to kill whom?"

Mei Xiaoren cast a pleading gaze at her profound master, but saw that Chu Yu's eyes were as pale as water. He opened his lips and said three words: "Think for yourself." ”

The master introduces the door, and the practice is in the individual.

Mei Xiaoren knew that Chu Yu was teaching her the ability to investigate the case, so naturally she would not explain it thoroughly, and would leave room for her to exercise alone.

In normal times, of course, she would be willing to try the opposite, but now time is not waiting for anyone.

"Master, this is saving lives" Mei Xiaoren dragged out his voice.

Chu Yu threw the medicine box in his hand to her, "Remember to wipe it on time." After saying that, he glanced at her and walked away.

Mei Xiaoren didn't chase after her, because she saw three words in his eyes again and didn't discuss

After a night, Mei Xiaoren heard that Wen Bin was still in a coma, and he didn't know if the poison on his body had been resolved.

Su Li was imprisoned in the Ancestral Master's Hall, which was a place to punish students, and no one was allowed to visit him without the orders of the mountain elder or the bishop.

When Mei Xiaoren saw Su Li again, it was already the afternoon of the second day.

The bishop came to the Shangxue Hall and was about to interrogate him in public, so he sent someone to escort Su Li over.

Su Li was escorted in by two guards, shrugged his shoulders and hunched over, walking extremely slowly, as if he was afraid of such a scene.

Bishop Zhou's face was devoid of yesterday's anger. As a bishop, he has been in officialdom for decades, and he will not know that Su Li's sword has clues

Unfortunately, all the evidence pointed to Su Li, and he had to interrogate him here in front of everyone.

Su Li stood cowardly in front of Bishop Zhou, at a loss, and even forgot to salute.

On such an occasion, who has the heart to care about etiquette, Bishop Zhou also has no intention, and said: "Su Li, this official asks, you have to answer truthfully." ”

Su Li's mind was a little dazed, and he neither nodded nor shook his head.

"The sword, but it has always been by your side, and it has never been touched by others"

Su Li shook his head, and spit out those three words: "I don't know"

Mei Xiaoren couldn't answer this question either. Their wooden swords are usually kept in the house and only taken out when they practice, but these days she rarely stays in Xingzhiyuan, and it cannot be ruled out that someone has sneaked into their house and manipulated the sword.

"You are so perfunctory, how can you find out the truth from this official"

"My lord, I don't know."

Mei Xiaoren pondered for a night along the train of thought that Chu Yu gave her, even if she hadn't figured out the overall situation, she thought it would be better to say a word or two for Su Li first.

She was about to get up, but she saw a small servant hurriedly running past her and arching his hand to Bishop Zhou in front of the hall: "Lord Bishop Qiqi, Master Shangshu has arrived at the bottom of the mountain." ”

"Which Shangshu lord" Bishop Zhou was puzzled.

"Master Shangshuwen of the Ministry of Industry."
