Wei Tai, the prefect of Tianfu, hurriedly came.

"Weichen meets the two highnesses and the two little marquis." Wei Tai arrived and saluted the four first.

"Lord Wei." Xiao Rui returned the salute with four people.

As the parent official of the capital, Wei Tai is a member of the third grade, and his rank is not lower than that of the six books, but the situation is an errand that is easy to offend people. Hearing that the two highnesses personally reported the case, Wei Tai came in person.

"Lord Wei, let's deal with the murder first." Xiao Rui took the lead in saying.

Wei Tai glanced at the scene, and was also frightened by the tragic death, five lives, and a baby who was still swaddling, this is a big case! How many years has it been since such a tragedy happened in the capital?

He hurriedly ordered the officials to cordon off the surroundings, search the surroundings, and let the servants begin the autopsy.

Soon, the searching officials found a carriage on the west side of the woods, and the horses were gone, leaving only an empty carriage, and no items to prove their identity were found.

Half an hour later, the autopsy was completed.

"My lord, there were five deceased, among whom the female was between eighteen and twenty-two years old, the young man between twenty and twenty-four years old, and the old couple between forty-five and fifty years old.

"There are no outsiders, just plainly speaking." Wei Tai said casually.

"The cause of death was strangulation, about five days ago. ”

"Strangulation?" Wei Tai was stunned for a moment, and then understood his hesitation. Once he is involved in killing, this is a big case, and if it can't be solved, it will cause panic in the capital, and he will have to get into trouble. If it was a beast that bit it to death, then ......

Wei Tai couldn't wait to slap himself.

"What else did you find?" Wei Tai's face remained unchanged and he continued to ask.

"The young deceased has blood marks on his fingernails, it is estimated that he scratched the perpetrator before he was strangled to death, and there are no obvious injuries to other parts of the four people's bodies. As for the baby, it was suffocated to death. ”

The catcher on the side also said: "There are no items on the four people that can prove their identity, and there is no carriage, it seems that they were taken away by the perpetrators." ”

Wei Tai nodded and said, "Collect the body and bring it back to the yamen." According to the appearance of the deceased and the carriage, an investigation was launched in the capital! ”

"Yes!" Catch quickly and clench your fists to receive orders.

After explaining, Wei Tai looked at Xiao Rui and the four of them and said, "Two highnesses, little marquis, is there anything else to order?" ”

Xiao Rui said with a smile: "My lord is the parent official of Ying Tianfu, how can we go beyond the bounds." I only hope that the case can be solved as soon as possible and the deceased will be innocent. ”

"Your Highness the Seventh can rest assured, Weichen will definitely keep an eye on this case and seize the time to solve the case. However, there is a large flow of people in the capital, and it takes a certain amount of time to investigate, and once there is progress, Weichen will send someone to report to His Highness. Wei Tai spoke without leaking.

Xiao Rui smiled and nodded, and then the four of them said goodbye, and they were not in the mood to hunt.

On the way, the four slowed down.

"Brother Seven, who do you think the perpetrator is? It's so cruel that he strangles a family alive and suffocates a child to death. Xiao Yan said angrily.

"What kind of hatred does this have to be?" Tian Boguang also sighed.

Zhang Lianchuan said angrily: "Damn murderer, I want to touch him and screw off his head." ”

Xiao Rui was about to speak.

"Ding Dong..."

"New Mission!"

Xiao Rui was stunned, the system was out of task again, and he closed his eyes to check:

"Name: Xiao Rui

Identity: The seventh prince of the Great Xia Kingdom

Talents: Does the status of a time-traveler count? No, then no

Advent: 80/100

New Mission: Find out the identity of the deceased and the reason for the killing, Advent +10, time: 20 days. If it is not completed, 60 points will be deducted from the advent value! ”

Now Xiao Rui is becoming more and more curious about the advent value, and when the scores are collected, can he summon the divine dragon?

Host, you can only make one wish! - said the system.

I made ten more wishes!

However, according to the urine nature of the system, it seems that this murder is not simple, after all, if it is simple, Ying Tianfu will be able to find out and easily accept the benefits of the fisherman.

Xiao Rui also saw that the system was the host of the pit, and he let himself offend people step by step and push him into the abyss.

So, who is it this time?

Xiao Rui is full of bad taste.

In the evening, the four of them had dinner in Cuiyun Building.

Gao Quan came back, spent 30,000 taels, and bought a two-entry house in the south of the city, not far from Xiao Yan's house. The southern area of the city is full of high-ranking officials and nobles, and the housing prices are already high, which costs Xiao Rui eighty percent of his property.

When Xiao Rui arrived at the house, he was very satisfied with the location and environment.

Stayed that night and entered.

The next day, Gao Quan recruited a few more servants, maids, and guards, and this family was officially alive.

A few days passed.

It has been four days since the murder was discovered, and Ying Tianfu has investigated the capital, and there is no report that the population is missing, so it is suspected that the five people are outsiders, and all inns, post stations, and homestays, including rented houses, etc., have not received any information about the report.

These five people appeared in the capital mysteriously like gods, and then secretly left.

Wei Tai was a little anxious, and now the capital is in an uproar, and Emperor Xia is also concerned about this matter because it is the two princes and the little marquis who reported the case. Although he hadn't spoken yet, Wei Tai knew that if he couldn't solve the case for a long time, Emperor Xia would reprimand him.

Now Wei Tai regrets it, if the cause of death is found to be a big insect bite, wouldn't there be so much to do?

His own stinky mouth.

In the past few days, Xiao Rui has not been idle.

What for? Class.

You can't keep asking for leave, otherwise you will be scolded by Dr. Jin again.

In class, Xiao Rui was thinking about the murder.

First of all, it is basically concluded that the deceased is not from the capital. If the whole family can go to the capital, and with such a small baby, it is likely that they are visiting relatives, so when they enter the city, they live in relatives' houses, so they do not have guest houses or rented houses.

Then, the people who killed them are likely to be relatives who came to look for them, not vendettas, bandits, bandits, etc.

It is imperative that the five persons be identified.

But they had nothing on them except their clothes.

Wait, clothes?

Xiao Rui immediately asked Dr. Jin for leave, saying that his stomach hurt.

Dr. Jin doesn't have a stomach ache, every time you run, your stomach hurts, and it should be born in October.

"Go, go, go." Dr. Jin didn't bother to ask him.

Xiao Yan's eyes on the side rolled, "Master, I also have a stomachache." ”

Dr. Jin took a deep breath and said earnestly: "Your Highness the Nine, you are still young, don't follow some people astray, Your Majesty sees it in your eyes." ”

Xiao Rui is unhappy, what's the matter with me, what's the matter with me!

"It hurts my stomach." Xiao Yan rubbed his stomach, looking bitter and hateful.

"Go ahead!" Dr. Jin had no choice but to agree.

Xiao Yan ran out of the class and chased after Xiao Rui: "Seventh brother, wait for me, wait for me." ”

Dr. Jin rubbed his forehead, trying not to get angry.

Out of the Jiwen Palace, Xiao Rui glared at Xiao Yan and shouted, "What are you doing with me?" I had a stomachache and went to see Lang Zhong. ”

"Seventh brother, where are you going? Shall I go with you? Xiao Yan said with a smile.

Xiao Rui was helpless, knowing that he couldn't get rid of him, so he could only say: "Go, go to Yingtianfu and investigate the case!" ”

"Really? I'm so excited! Xiao Yan roared.
