Chapter 132: Flickering
As soon as these words came out, Mu Hibiscus, who had been listening quietly beside her, finally noticed that there was something wrong with what she said, and immediately turned her head in surprise, but Mu Rong turned around and gave her an extraordinarily bright smile.
Su Jiao speculated in her heart what Mu Rong said to herself, and for a while she didn't doubt why she only discussed with herself, and was only immersed in how to solve this game.
"In that case, then I understand that as long as we can get close to each other, we can always teach us to take precautions."
"Naturally, madam, please rest assured, it's still early today, the adults should come back later, it turns out that Madame might as well go and rest first, recuperate and recharge, so that you can prepare for tomorrow."
Mu Rong came back to her senses and nodded her head firmly, Su Jiao looked at her, combined with her yearning for the agent just now, a feeling of being burdened with a heavy responsibility arose.
"Okay."
The next day, Xiao Huai'an only needed to send Yunosuke back last night, and his task was completed, and it was not too late to ask Shi Zhengzhi the next morning.
But helplessly, Yunosuke is a person who usually looks so arrogant, and when something happens, he immediately trembles with fright, and he can't even take care of the previous grievances with Xiao Huai'an, so he dragged his arm and shouted while crying, which made him feel a handful of snot and tears.
Xiao Huai'an wondered several times if he had wiped tears and other unknown liquids on his body, and when he came back, he didn't even want the clothes on his body.
As a dignified man, he cries so delicately and miserably, it is really embarrassing, and he is really a rich child who has never experienced the vicissitudes of society.
Therefore, due to Younosuke's objective reasons, Xiao Huai'an came back from work very late, and he only slept for three or four hours, and then he had to get up and prepare for work.
Xiao Huai'an has always been informalized in other things, but this lack of sleep is really easy to affect his mood, he walked into the hall with a low air pressure to prepare for dinner, and the people in the circle on the side didn't even dare to come out.
But only a pair of white hands came over with chopsticks for him, and he walked away without any scruples, as if he slapped on the chopsticks rest.
Xiao Huai'an was stunned for a moment, then suddenly came back to his senses, and when he looked up and saw who that person was, all the qi in his stomach dissipated.
"You, why are you here?" Xiao Huai'an cleared his throat, looked at Su Jiao's smile in disbelief, took the chopsticks and put the dishes and spoons for himself very diligently, and was ready to take the initiative to serve a bowl of porridge for him. Xiao Huai'an really couldn't accept it, and hurriedly pressed her hand.
"What are you doing here? Didn't you sleep well last night? β
"What are you talking about, people care about you, worry that you work too hard, and take care of you, so I can be regarded as your nominal wife."
Su Jiao's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she said sweetly, which made Xiao Huai'an feel a chill on his body more and more, and hurriedly let go of his hand and don't look over.
"If you really haven't slept well, you should go and rest for a while, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of this door."
"What do you say? Do you dislike me like that?! Su Jiao looked at Xiao Huai'an's expression of resistance, and felt that her charm had been hit for the first time in her career for so many years, and she slapped the table lightly and roared, but Xiao Huai'an felt relieved.
"It's normal to talk like this, and it's not in front of outsiders, but what is there to ask for, and you're going to buy something again?"
What's wrong? Su Jiao complained in her heart, lifted her skirt and sat next to him, supporting her chin with one hand. "How can you say that, isn't it good that people come to you every time?"
"Well, that pair of large vases that appeared inexplicably are pretty good, and they're still soaking in that pool." Xiao Huai'an nodded, raised the spoon and drank the soup without changing his face.
"It's better to say something earlier, it's too late, I won't have time to listen."
"Isn't that pretty good, and you can hatch fish by the way." Su Jiao couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, "Okay, I'll be direct if I have anything to say, when I make it clear to you, I'm very interested in these cases in your hands, and it just so happens that there are no banquets and people to go to recently, so I'll reluctantly help you with this." β
"Hundreds of officials in the city, a lady has a birthday banquet, can there be any lack of you?" Xiao Huai'an almost didn't choke when he heard Su Jiao's words at first glance.
"And you are a female streamer, if you see these bloody scenes, you can't help but be afraid, and what did you plan to do in the past, help me transcribe it?"
"Of course, it's for you to watch people." Xiao Huai'an's words were just to the point, Su Jiao's face was slightly red, but she still slapped the table with a bluff and raised her chin.
"I've heard that one of your subordinates is Lord Shi last night, it turns out that he used to know the second prince, so I have to watch him for your life, so that he won't be used behind his back to help those envoys get rid of their crimes."
Mu Rong said so much last night, Su Jiao's ability to summarize is inevitably too strong, not only Xiao Huai'an can't understand it, but Mu Rong, the first person to make such remarks, almost didn't react.
"What are you talking about, is there any relationship between these points?" Xiao Huai'an raised his eyebrows slightly, put the bowl down, and chewed the pickles cut with chopsticks.
Seeing this, Su Jiao sighed faintly, patted him on the shoulder with one hand, and looked distressed and well-intentioned. "It's okay, I understand that you are in the game now, and you can't see clearly, so I need to help you even more."
"You-" The corners of Xiao Huai'an's mouth stiffened slightly, not knowing what to say to her, and suddenly glanced to the side, and saw Mu Rong who was looking forward to it on the side, and suddenly understood everything.
"Well, it just so happens that Hibiscus has something to do with her," Xiao Huai'an whispered, then straightened up and asked Su Jiao to put her hand down. "Okay, I know, you can follow if you want, then don't hurry up and eat, otherwise it's time to eat, don't blame me for regretting it."
"Okay, you'll see." Su Jiao didn't notice the first half of his words, and happily raised her right hand holding chopsticks, which fell like a lightning storm between the plates on the table.
After a while, Xiao Huai'an carried a wide knife and strode into the Yushitai in high spirits, Liang Xin is also a very good deputy, and the two of them walked slowly one after the other, which is called a young hero.
However, behind him, the style of painting changed abruptly, and Su Jiao deliberately changed into a relatively light dress, but the pink and bright color was particularly abrupt among the officials in a solemn dark black official robe.
She led the hibiscus and the three of them, just like the posture between Xiao Huai'an and Liang Xin, swaggering, and followed up with a wooden face, so that the little officials around them were very puzzled, but none of them were embarrassed to ask.
"I've seen Lord Xiao, my lord is here, the corpse has been placed in the back room, do you have any plans to go over and take a look."
Yesterday, because she was far away, Su Jiao couldn't see what Shi Zhengzhi looked like, and when she stood so close today, she found that such a big and three thick person, his eyebrows were quite lush.
Shi Zhengzhi came early, and as soon as he heard that there was movement outside, he immediately restrained his tendons and came out to greet him, and as soon as he finished the last word, he could clearly perceive what Su Jiao had been falling on him.
"My lord, this isβ"
"Don't bother." Xiao Huai'an heard the sound and looked at it, just in time to meet the stunned Su Jiao's eyes, and then turned around, it was easy to suppress his smile, and the angry Su Jiao couldn't help waving her fist at him in the air.
"Ah, actually, I'mβ" Su Jiao snorted at him from her nose, and was just about to explain, when she saw Shi Zhengcheng on the other side bowing politely.
"Xia Guan understands, this should be Mrs. Xiao, look up for a long time."
"You're very discerning." When Su Jiao heard this, she couldn't help but show him an appreciative expression, but Shi Zhengzhi didn't see it.
"My lord, yesterday my lord personally escorted the envoys back, and I should have stopped by to see the place where the little official died." Shi Zhengzhi was polite, said hello twice, and immediately started the offensive with her, this class is not polite, it is easy to attract hatred.
Su Jiao was not angry in her heart, pouting and gritting her teeth, her fists were quietly tightened, Diecui was worried when she saw it, and hurriedly reached out and pressed her shoulder. "He deliberately avoided my question, I think he is very problematic."
Such a forced understanding is a bit too far-fetched. The corners of Mu Rong's mouth twitched, "Madam, he will definitely not show any horses at this beginning, let's focus on following the adults." β
"That's for sure, he has a bad plot against Huai'an, and he must be guarded to find out the problem."
Why does that sound so strange? If Mu Rong didn't know that her words were not wrong, I was afraid that she would have misunderstood.
Su Jiao slowly raised her fist and waved it twice in front of her, then lifted the hem of her skirt and chased her all the way to the house.
The room was clean, perhaps there had been no murder in the past few days, and the beds in three rows and eight rows were covered with snow-white clean sheets, so the white bed in the corner lay the body that had just been found last night.
Speaking of which, this was the first time Su Jiao had observed the corpse so closely, and she walked slowly over with her steps upside down.
Fortunately, this person's death was not too tragic, he was smeared on the neck, and he saw that the blood sealed his throat, and his body was clean, and the wound was not necessarily bloody.
She quietly raised her eyes and took a look, feeling that it was no different from the special effects makeup she painted, so she boldly walked to Xiao Huai'an's side.
"Yesterday, when I went to the Dianke Residence, I specifically asked to take a look at the place where this person's body was found, it was actually in the open space in the front yard, and he was bleeding profusely from his neck, and a piece of land was covered with black and wet mud."
"It's so bold, I'm afraid that if it doesn't kill people temporarily, it's a deliberate provocation." Xiao Huai'an noticed Su Jiao's approach, but he didn't say anything, and he and Shi Zhengzhi finished talking about the business first.
