In the peak academy, in the Fengya Hall, there was a shocking sound of ghosts and gods, and the dean of Yushu was sitting behind the screen and caressing the piano.

Huangpu Hantan coughed lightly and said: "The dean's piano skills are really as superb as ever, and the aftermath lingers for three days." ”

The dean pretended to be modest and said, "Where is it, second only to your excellence." ”

"I'll get straight to the point, Your Majesty, there are cases that you and I need to work together to deal with."

—

As an unspeakable existence of the Great Southern Dynasty, the academy's hidden identity is the high-level secret agent department directly under the imperial power, which is responsible for investigating all the strange and bizarre cases in the imperial city.

-

Before coming to Hetai Square, the new batch of students recruited by the academy were all lined up on the square, and Gu Heyang and Qi Hao, who were in the spotlight during the competition, were assigned to the six-story building without any suspense, but Wei Long unexpectedly became Song Yu's assistant.

On the stage, the heads of the various floors of the academy were taking turns to give speeches, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the square, but there was a hula sound, the door was completely opened, and more than a dozen elephants pulled a huge object into the field. The object was so large that it was more than five feet long, and it was covered by a black tarpaulin, and everyone consciously stepped aside. The elephants in Kyoto are all managed by the Elephant Mahing Department of the Ministry of Rites, except for some major ceremonial occasions such as sacrifices and entertaining foreign guests, they rarely appear, and now such a big battle makes Gu Heyang and Qi Hao interested all of a sudden.

The heads of the floors also walked towards this thing, and a group of people exchanged ears, as if they were discussing something.

Gu Heyang asked, "Guess what it is?" ”

Qi Hao said: "The edges are rounded, it shouldn't be an instrument, and on this hot day, it should be covered with a black cloth, it should be a perishable thing that can't see the light." ”

"You see there are still a lot of flies and insects hovering on the black cloth, and there is lime sprinkled on the edges, and the people nearby are covering their noses, but they are afraid that the things have rotted."

"I guess it's a corpse!"

"It's just such a big car, how many corpses do you have? Could it be that he was a soldier who died in battle, right? It doesn't seem like a big deal lately......"

"If it's a human corpse, the officials who come here should have a sad look on their faces, but they only have fatigue on their faces, but they can't see sadness.

"So, it's not a human corpse that is wrapped, but a corpse that is very useful to the academy......"

At this time, Huangpu Hantan and the dean also came to the square, he ordered someone to step forward to untie the rope, the black cloth was finally slowly pulled away, a fishy smell gushed out instantly, the dean hurriedly covered his mouth and nose and retreated three feet, and the spring flowers that were close to him were spit out directly.

That's a huge fish!

A big fish that is five feet long!

Qi Hao was surprised: "Is this a big fish in the sea?" ”

Gu Heyang naturally knew what this was, after all, he had visited the aquarium a lot when he was a child, so he said: "The name of this big fish is whale, you see there is a hole in its head, if there is a column of water in the hole, then the sea will be beautiful for a few days, if there is a sneering sound, then there will be a storm on the sea." ”

Qi Hao looked at Gu Heyang in surprise and said, "How do you know this?" ”

Gu Heyang blurted out: "The docent of the aquarium." ”

Qi Hao was puzzled: "What is a commentator?" ”

Gu He Yang paused for a moment and said, "Oh, it's the teacher of our village." ”

Qi Hao nodded and said, "I see, the docents in your village can be described as knowledgeable. ”

Gu Heyang said proudly: "It's a must." ”

Qi Hao said with a smile: "I heard that Gonggong Zheng of the court went to sea last year and went to the West and brought back a lot of treasures that he had never seen before, the pearls were as big as a fist, and there were sea dragons on the sea that would call for wind and rain, and the water monster with such a big house, I thought it was just a rumor, but I didn't expect to see this whale today, and I was really startled." ”

Gu Heyang said: "It seems that my father-in-law with the surname me likes to go to the West, let's go!" Let's go down and see the fish! ”

Qi Hao was a little clean, he could already smell the fishy smell of the whale corpse from so far away, and couldn't help but cover his nose with his sleeve and said, "Don't go, it's just a dead fish, it stinks to death." ”

"Let's go, let's take a look." Gu Heyang pulled Qi Hao and ran downstairs with a cigarette, and came to the side of the whale, and the first feeling of the two of them was that it stinks! It stinks! The strong smell of fishy rot is so strong that you almost can't open your eyes!

Spectacular! Shock! Incredible! These words were not enough to describe Qi Hao's mood when he saw this whale for the first time.

Although the flies were circling and flying in the sky, and the smell of disgusting people was so strong that it could not be dispersed, Gu Heyang was still full of interest, Qi Hao had to vomit it several times, but his hand was tightly dragged by Gu Heyang, and he couldn't break free, so he had to frown and frown, and was dragged around helplessly.

At this time, Huangpu Hantan was talking with the dean.

Huangpu Hantan pointed to the whale and said: "Your Majesty specially explained, if Gonggong Zheng captures this thing, he will be sent to the Peak Academy as soon as possible. Huangpu Hantan pinched his mouth and nose, paused and asked, "However, what does the dean want this whale to do?" ”

The dean covered his nose and smiled: "This thing is naturally very useful!" ”

Huangpu Hantan looked at the stinky whale in front of him in disbelief and said, "It's all like this, it's still useful?" ”

The dean smiled and said, "Okay, I'm just asking for one item on it." ”

"What? But ambergris? Huangpu Hantan asked.

As the saying goes, he said with a smile: "Although ambergris is precious, it is far less than its skin." ”

Huangpu Hantan was stunned for a moment: "Since ancient times, there have been tiger skins, wolf skins, cow skins and even sheepskins, but I have never heard of anyone asking for fish skins." ”

Gu Heyang blurted out: "I know, you want to use this fish skin as a high-pressure water cannon?" ”

"High pressure water cannon?!"

Legend has it that in the Southern Dynasty sailors, there was a strange person who caught a big fish by chance in the sea, he first refined the whale skin to be thin and tough, and then sewed into a huge water bladder, and finally placed the water bladder on a special engineering vehicle, when used by about 100 people to quickly squeeze the water bladder, it can spray out a huge flow of water, the water cannon can not only be used to extinguish fires, but also can be used for water confrontation, strong water flow can directly hit the opponent's warship, this matter was originally little known, So when Gu Heyang said the word water cannon, Huangpu Hantan was greatly surprised, and he looked at Gu Heyang: "You are ......"

The dean coughed lightly, and at this time, the six-story big man appeared out of nowhere, and he opened his mouth and scolded: "You two freshmen, what are you doing here?!" It's so hard for us to find it! Why don't you report back with me! ”

Gu Heyang said dissatisfiedly: "I haven't introduced myself to this adult yet!" ”

"Don't make a mess like this, don't disturb Lord Huangpu and the dean doing business!" Saying that, Da Zhuang took one in one hand, and quickly grabbed Gu Heyang and Qi Hao like catching a chicken cub and walked towards the sixth floor.

Along the way, there is naturally a burst of scolding.
