"Hey, it looks like you've been tricked by the person you trust the most." Qiu Gubo crossed his arms and squinted at Le Zhengxian.

"Hmm." Le Zhengxian did not deny this, "But, do you know who those three people are? ”

Qiu Gubo shook his head: "I don't know." ”

Le Zhengxian said: "The oldest is Wu Sihe, a member of a rescue organization specializing in it, that organization is called Lou, his nickname is Stilted Lou, and he is a master of rescue." And the one with the short sword, called Liu Luoqu, was originally a killer of Feng Manlou, who was removed a few years ago, is on the run, and is good at assassination. And the youngest, about the same age as you, is called Tang Anshu, a very powerful, but not famous, gon cloth and ground minister, who studied under the eight-armed Arhat Hu Shen. ”

Qiu Gubo calculated in his heart and asked, "How can the appearance of the land be not famous?" Isn't that a contradiction? Legend has it that a man can be an army, and if he really is, it would be terrifying. ”

Le Zhengxian shook his head: "The title of the land master comes from the Earth Master Association, but many years ago, the Earth Master Association existed in name only, and there were slogans of reviving the Earth Master Association shouted everywhere, and even some people re-established the Earth Master Association themselves, but they are not authentic, and the orthodox Gong Yi and the Earth Master must be canonized, and now these Gong Yi and the Earth Ministers basically belong to the previous generation of the Gong Yi and the Land Minister, and the most important thing is that Tang Anshu's master Hu Shen has not been canonized by the Earth Master Association, and it is rumored that he is still a traitor to the Earth Master Association. ”

Qiu Gubo sat down and asked: "Then it's a contradiction, neither the master and apprentice have been canonized, so why can they be called the Gonyi Minister?" ”

"Strength." Le Zhengxian simply said two words, "In Sichuan, Hu Shen's reputation is the loudest, and his strength is also the strongest, no matter how other earth masters or earth ministers brag and belittle Hu Shen, as long as they make a move, they will make a judgment, and Hu Shen was later killed, his arms were cut off, and he was originally dead, his apprentice Tang Anshu rescued Hu Shen bloodlessly, only said one sentence, and no one knew what he said." ”

"Just one sentence?" Qiu Gubo's face was full of suspicion, "Is it so powerful?" Eh, didn't you say that your master is also in Sichuan? By the way, you also said that your master later took in an apprentice, and so on......"

Qiu Gubo stood up suddenly when he thought of this, and found that Le Zhengxian was looking at him, and then nodded slowly: "Yes, you guessed it, my master is also Hu Shen, and Tang Anshu is my junior brother." ”

Qiu Gubo frowned: "Then why didn't you say it at the time?" Why didn't Tang Anshu recognize you at that time? ”

Le Zhengxian said: "At that time, Tang Anshu was still young, and my master did not formally introduce me in front of him, nor did I allow me to call him master in person, the master said, I am not a teacher, I am not a teacher, I am a temporary departure, it is considered a betrayal of the master, and his punishment is to sweep me away." ”

Qiu Gubo sat down: "What a coincidence." ”

"I decided to accept that Wang Xuanjin's plan." Le Zhengxian looked at Qiu Gu Bodao and said, "I'm going to prison, I want to find out what's going on." ”

Qiu Gubo asked, "What to check?" Check "Jinling Jane" or the Qu family's extermination case? ”

Le Zhengxian said: "You have to check." ”

Qiu Gubo immediately shook his head: "My case has been solved, I now know what happened to the Xingang murder case and the inn tragedy, and I also know the reason for the Eight Kings Courtyard case, so let's do our own thing and don't interfere with each other, thank you." ”

Qiu Gubo left after speaking, but at the moment when he was about to open the door, Le Zhengxian stopped him: "Qiu Yutan, we are all going to prison, someone must be outside to answer, except for you, there is no one else to choose." ”

Qiu Gubo shook his head: "I'm sorry, the rivers and lakes are in trouble, I'm not a person from the rivers and lakes, I'm a policeman, these things have nothing to do with me, you can find someone else." ”

"Epiphany's case, is Qiu Detective interested?" Le Zhengxian sat at the table, one hand supporting his cheek, and looked at Qiu Gubo with a smile and turned to look at him, "This is the most bizarre series of cases in Yongcheng for decades, and it is also the most embarrassing case for your father. ”

Qiu Gubo stood there and gritted his teeth: "Epiphany! ”

●

In the office of the director of the Yongcheng Police Station, Qiu Yishan opened the lock and took out the stack of thick files tied with rope from the filing cabinet, and on the page of the file were written three blood-red characters - Epiphany.

Qiu Yishan's hand grasped the knot, and finally let go, sat down with his ass, and sighed.

The sunlight shone in through the curtains and fell on Qiu Yishan's old face, he simply got up, opened the curtains, bathed in the sun, and lit a cigarette.

Yongcheng Qiu family generation is not in the yamen, or the dart game, from the end of the Qing Dynasty, Yongcheng has appeared a chivalrous and righteous strange man, claiming to be called Epiphany.

No one knows whether this person is a man or a woman, from the analysis of the name, most people think that it is a woman, and this woman has always been jealous and hateful, and once stabbed the five bullies of Yongcheng. At the time of the most crisis, he blew up the granary of Yongcheng and let the people get food for relief. He also infiltrated Newport late at night and stole some of the precious antiques they had stolen from the foreigners.

In short, in the eyes of the people, Yetan is a good person and a thief, but she is a thorn in the eyes of the government, a thorn in the flesh of foreigners, and an old enemy of the Qiu family for decades.

When Epiphany appeared, Qiu Gubo's grandfather was still alive, but until the old catcher was about to die, he was not successfully caught, followed by Qiu Gubo's father, even if he later became the chief of the Yongcheng Police Department, he never succeeded in trapping Epiphany.

After Qiu Gubo became sensible, he also began to investigate the case of Epiphany, but for some reason, Epiphany suddenly stopped appearing in ten years and no longer committed crimes, as if such a person had never appeared in Yongcheng.

However, Qiu Gubo knew what it meant to the Qiu family to catch Epiphany.

In the osmanthus house, Qiu Gubo sat down again and asked solemnly: "Do you really have news of Epiphany?" ”

"Of course." Le Zhengxian nodded, "And I know who Epiphany is, this person is still alive, in Yongcheng, and I guess this person also has some kind of connection with "Jinling Jane". ”

Qiu Gubo immediately asked, "Who is it?" ”

"It's a deal, Qiu Detective." Le Zhengxian smiled, "Since this thief has not committed a crime, I don't need to tell you right away, if I tell you, why would you stay here to answer me?" Don't worry, as long as I finish my affairs in prison, I will tell you who Epiphany is. ”

Qiu Gubo sneered: "Maybe you're lying, maybe Epiphany died early, and even if she didn't die, she didn't know where to hide." ”

Le Zhengxian shook his head: "Qiu Zhutan, think about it, has the Epiphany ever appeared outside of Yongcheng for decades?" ”

Qiu Gubo looked at Le Zhengxian, and then shook his head.

Le Zhengxian said again: "This shows that Ye Tanhua must be a person from Yongcheng, I will give you this clue first, it is a deposit, you can rest assured, I will never break my word." ”

Qiu Gubo gritted his teeth: "How can we get in touch?" ”

Le Zhengxian looked at the door: "Don't worry, someone will naturally look for you." ”

Qiu Gubo wanted to say something, but he couldn't help it, turned around and opened the door, ignored Shen Qingmeng, and left directly.

After Qiu Gubo left the South Courtyard, Shen Qingmeng lowered the latch again, walked into the Osmanthus House again, and sat opposite Le Zhengxian, without speaking, just looking at him.

Le Zhengxian poured Shen Qingmeng a glass of wine, and then picked up his cup: "Miss Shen, in the future, I will have you as my liaison with Qiu Detective." ”

Shen Qingmeng looked surprised: "Contact? What are you doing? ”

Qiu Gubo smiled: "I'm going to sneak into the prison." ”

Shen Qingmeng smiled: "Oh my God, what are you talking about, what does it have to do with me when you sneaked into the prison?" I don't want to get involved in your affairs. ”

Qiu Gubo said unhurriedly: "Miss Shen, after I entered the prison, the only way to communicate with the outside world was the radio, and you just have one here, so I'm tired of you." ”

Shen Qingmeng's face changed, but she didn't say anything, she didn't know how much Qiu Gubo knew.

Qiu Gubo picked up his wine glass: "Miss Shen, I won't betray you to Sun San, as long as you are the contact person, come, I wish me all the best." ”

Shen Qingmeng hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the wine glass and drank the glass of wine expressionlessly.

Why should I only be chosen every time? Shen Qingmeng felt that the wine in the cup was so bitter.

A day later, at noon, Tang Anshu, Liu Luoqu and Wu Sihe appeared at the door of the Xingang Sailor's Tavern, and just as he was about to walk in, Le Zhengxian also walked out of the crowd and appeared in front of them.

Tang Anshu just nodded to Le Zhengxian, and then walked into the tavern one after the other, and found two tables that were not close to each other to sit down.

At noon, the tavern had just opened, and there were not many people, and the half-dressed guy in front of the wine cabinet was yawning and wiping his glass, and he didn't want to talk to them.

On the side of the tavern, there was an old man squatting there smoking a cigarette with a broom next to him.

In addition, there were a few drinking guests sitting in the tavern, chatting and laughing.

"Looks like the ghost didn't come." Liu Luoqu said in a low voice.

Wu Sihe still looked around slowly and didn't say anything, while Tang Anshu waved his hand to greet the guy: "Man, what is there to eat?" ”

The guy raised his eyes and looked at Tang Anshu: "It just opened, there are only snacks such as peanuts and wine, do you want it?" ”

Before Tang Anshu could speak, Liu Luoqu said, "Yes!" Have a bottle of wine! Bring any snacks to you! ”

The guy nodded: "Got it, wait." ”

After the guy finished speaking, Le Zhengxian, who was at the table not far away, squinted at Tang Anshu, and when Tang Anshu's eyes moved over, he avoided his gaze again and looked at the other side.

Wu Sihe asked, "Anshu, what's wrong?" ”

Tang Anshu said in a low voice: "I don't know why, I always feel that the person named Le Zhengxian is a little familiar, and he seems to have seen it somewhere." ”

Liu Luoqu smiled at this time: "I know who he is, he used to be a policeman in Rongcheng, Rongcheng famous detective Le Zhengxian, very famous, he solved a lot of strange cases in Rongcheng, and then he disappeared without knowing why." ”

"Rongcheng?" Tang Anshu frowned, "I'm not impressed." ”

Liu Luoqu glanced at Le Zhengxian, and said in a low voice: "What kind of thaumaturgical murder, as well as the theft of the chaser, this kid broke it, don't underestimate him." ”
