Chapter 527: Principal

"Is Blue Heart there?"

The first sentence of this person's mouth made me stunned directly, who is Lan Xin, there doesn't seem to be this person here, is he looking for the wrong place?

It's no wonder that I have such thoughts, mainly because I haven't heard of the name Blue Heart at all, and I will subconsciously associate it with other aspects.

Perhaps seeing the puzzled look on my face, he hurriedly explained, "Lan Xin is the owner of the detective agency, don't you know?" ”

Oh!

It dawned on me that this was the case, no wonder I hadn't heard of the name Lan Xin, it turned out to be a fake name deliberately fabricated by Liu Rou, and after thinking about this, I smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I just came here to work and don't know the name of the boss." ”

"That's right!"

casually perfunctory, it can be seen that this person must have something very urgent.

"Where is Lan Xin, I have something urgent to find her."

"I went out a few days ago, and I haven't come back yet, but when she leaves, she will hand over everything to me in the detective agency, and just tell me something." I patiently explained, but it was very strange in my heart, Liu Rou once said that the detective agency had just opened, and the people around me should be unfamiliar with the detective agency.

However, this guy directly named Liu Rou, judging from the tone, he is definitely an old acquaintance, if it is really an old acquaintance, it conflicts with what Liu Rou said at the beginning, who would notice when there was an extra detective agency in such a big place as Tianyuan City, let alone the owner of the detective agency.

"Alas, since I'm not here, I can only look for you." I saw him sigh and say, as if no one except Liu Rou could solve his current problem.

To be honest, being seen like this, my temper suddenly rose, and I swore and said, "Don't worry, leave it to me, as long as Lan Xin can solve it, it will definitely not be difficult for me." ”

This cowhide is a bit big, and I regretted it directly after I finished speaking, but the words were put down, and there was no reason to slap myself in the face, so I could only bite the bullet to see what kind of commission it was, but it could be seen from his look that it must be very tricky.

Sure enough, when he heard my sworn words, he suddenly came to his senses and said excitedly, "Okay, I hope you don't let me down." “

"Well, don't worry!" I could only respond with a dry smile.

"I am the housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion, who knew the door was closed when I went to wake up this morning, the City Lord had already gotten up at this time in the past, our City Lord was not a lazy person, I just felt strange at the time, I didn't care, and after waiting for a while, the room where the City Lord lived had not been opened."

"In a panic, I called our young lady, opened the door, but the city lord was not inside, from that moment to now I have been looking for three whole days, tonight a subordinate accidentally found the city lord who had been dead for a long time in the room, the death was very scary, too terrible."

As he spoke, the butler's body trembled, and he must have been so frightened when he recalled that terrible scene, so it can be imagined that the way the city lord died must have been unbelievable.

"Then you came to the detective agency so that we can investigate the murderer of the city lord?" After hearing all this, I gradually understood what the butler was going to entrust, but I asked to make sure that there was no doubt about it.

The old housekeeper nodded, and said sadly, "The prestige of the city lord in Tianyuan City is incomparable, if it weren't for his existence, how could Tianyuan City have the current peace, I'm afraid it will be affected by the war, the impact of the city lord's death on Tianyuan City is too great, and I'm afraid no one can control what will happen in the future." ”

His words were very incomprehensible, I frowned in confusion, I didn't understand what the old butler meant by this, I asked him if it was to investigate the cause of the death of the city lord, who knew that he was here to recount the greatness of the city lord, I don't understand what is the use of talking nonsense, after all, people are already dead.

It's so long-winded!

"You came to the detective agency to investigate the truth about the death of the city lord?" I had to interrupt him to continue his nonsense and said with a frown.

"It's not!"

No?

I almost didn't exclaim, since he wasn't investigating the truth about death, why did he come here, did he come here to chat? No, he was still very anxious at the beginning, and the purpose of coming here may not be much simpler.

"Then what the hell are you doing here, if it's okay, please go back, I still have to sleep."

To be honest, I'm really impatient, I've been depressed these days, and now I'm being used to have fun, can I stand it?

"Wait, can you hear me?" Hearing that I was going to close the door, the old butler panicked.

I glanced at him seriously, from the old butler's performance, it didn't look like he was lying, maybe there was something important, thinking of this, I frowned and said, "Okay, I don't want to listen to your nonsense, just say the point, otherwise don't blame me for closing the door and sleeping." ”

"Good!"

"After the death of the city lord, the news also spread throughout Tian Yuan City, and the most incomprehensible scene appeared, Tian Yuan City was as calm as water, and I didn't feel any waves, as if nothing had happened, this is the most abnormal place."

Yes, the old housekeeper just said that the prestige of the city lord of Tianyuan City is unparalleled, not to mention the bizarre death of a big man like him, even if it happens to an ordinary person, I am afraid it will cause a small sensation, can it be said that the city lord is not even as good as an ordinary person?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"That's why I'm here today, and your mission is simple, to find out why."

"What about the pay?"

Although he is also very interested in the whole thing, who wants to waste his efforts in vain, and a fool will agree to his commission without enough payment, but I believe that the other party will definitely satisfy me, after all, he is the old butler of the City Lord's Mansion and represents the City Lord's Mansion, how can he be stingy?

"This is a down payment, a thousand crystals, and a thousand more after completion, how about it, if you are not satisfied, we can discuss it again."

I was very satisfied with this reward, although I don't know how much a crystal is worth, but the amount of two thousand should not be small, after a little consideration, I decided to agree.

"Okay, I promise you."

If I refuse this commission, no one knows when the next commission will appear, and I don't want to wait for Liu Rou to come back and not have a business done.

"This is a down payment, a thousand crystals!"

took a small bag handed over by the old butler, shook it gently, and the crisp collision sound was pleasant, and when he opened the bag, he saw that the shiny crystals were piled up together, the number of a thousand should be enough, and it would definitely not be less, because the identity of the other party was placed there, and if it was missing, it would be the face of the city lord's mansion.

"Don't worry, I'll complete your commission as soon as possible."

Closing the door, I breathed a deep sigh of relief, I finally found something to do, if I was idle like this, who knows if there will be something wrong with idleness, after all, I don't know when Liu Rou will come back.

Lying on the bed, even if I closed my eyes, I couldn't fall asleep after turning over, my mind was full of today's conversation with the old housekeeper, and from time to time I even flashed the figures of Lu Xiaoqing and Zhao Si, and suddenly thought of what they were going to plan, and I actually connected the two things together.

How is this possible?

I opened my eyes with a wry smile, I couldn't sleep anyway, I simply sat on the bed, the room was filled with dark night, thick and silent, people could feel the depression hidden in the night from time to time, who knew that at this time, Lu Xiaoqing and Zhao Si flashed in my mind again.

Wait, Lu Xiaoqing?

I suddenly thought of the conversation in Paradise Lost, Lu Xiaoqing seemed to have said that she was the daughter of the city lord of Tianyuan City, and Zhao Si seemed to be a well-known figure in Tianyuan City, what they were plotting a few days ago, it could not help but be seen from their conversation that they had been planning for a long time.

The city lord also mysteriously disappeared during that time period, and combining the two things in my mind, I came to a conclusion that I couldn't believe myself, the city lord's death must have something to do with Lu Xiaoqing and Zhao Si, and it was very likely that the two of them planned something to kill the city lord.

Lu Xiaoqing, as the daughter of the city lord, is an internal response in the city lord's mansion that will never be exposed, Zhao Si can use the power in Tianyuan City to plot everything, and in the end, the city lord was solved unconsciously, everything seems reasonable, but after thinking about it carefully, I always feel that there is something missing.

It's like an infinite number of threads, if not straightened out, they will always be disorganized, and they can't become a complete thread after all, and there is an important detail missing from these two things, and they can't be connected together.

Carefully recalling the details I knew, suddenly a light flashed in my mind, and a word quickly flashed, motive, by the way, Zhao Si's motive can barely be understood, for the status of Tianyuan City, but what about Lu Xiaoqing, she is the daughter of the city lord, and there seems to be no reason to kill her father.

Unless she is deeply in love with Zhao Si?

No way!

From the details of my encounter with the two, I can tell that the relationship between the two is definitely not a lover, they should be collaborators, a mutually beneficial relationship, so that she has no reason to kill her father, if she really does, it is too unreasonable.

The motive, if it was really the two of them who did it, then what exactly was the motive of the two of them?

frowned and thought about it carefully, I couldn't figure out what it was for, the motive for killing was not too complicated strictly speaking, but if it was placed on the two of them, it didn't seem so reasonable, and it made people feel very awkward.

Lu Xiaoqing!

Zhao Si!

What exactly are they planning?

Did they do the death of the city lord?
