Qiu Gubo was embarrassed, so he had to put away his smile, raise the gun, and return to his previous serious expression, as if he had never done anything before.

Liu Luoqu glanced at Tang Anshu and said with his eyes: This kid has something wrong with his brain, right?

Wang Xuanjin waved his hand: "You all put down your weapons, you are all calculated by the ears, if it weren't for me and Yansun, the two of you would have been fighting because of provocation by now, and the result would be a defeat for both sides." ”

Tang Anshu and Le Zhengxian asked almost at the same time: "What do you mean?" ”

Yansun raised his hand and signaled: "Put down the guy in your hand first!" ”

Everyone hesitated for a while, then slowly put down their weapons and looked at Yansun and Wang Xuanjin.

Wang Xuanjin explained: "The Dead Ear took advantage of the fact that you all have to find "Jinling Jian" and set up this bureau. ”

As he spoke, Wang Xuanjin pointed at Tang Anshu: "Styx knows that under the premise that you are helpless, you will definitely ask them to buy news, so Styx arranged for you to come here to find Yan Gang." ”

After speaking, Wang Xuanjin looked at Le Zhengxian again: "The person you trust most in the Underworld is Yan Gang, but unfortunately, it was he who betrayed you and told the Elders' Council your true purpose of lurking in the Underworld." The assassination you experienced in the morning was just a play, the purpose of which was to corner, so that according to Yan Gang's plan, you would come to kill Tang Anshu and them. ”

Le Zhengxian frowned and looked at Yan Gang's corpse on the ground: "Why don't they do it themselves?" Or do you want to find someone who is full of wind? ”

Wang Xuanjin said with a smile: "They don't have that much ability, they have already tried to assassinate Tang Anshu and them, but failed, so they are not sure if they are completely sure to kill you, so they simply arrange for your two groups of tricky people to fight each other, so as to make a profit." ”

After Wang Xuanjin finished explaining, Yansun immediately said: "I and the ghost have been lurking here for many years, just to wait for an opportunity to take revenge, but I didn't expect to inadvertently let us know about their plan, so we simply calculated and made a game within a game." ”

After listening to Wang Xuanjin and Yansun's explanations, Tang Anshu, Le Zhengxian and others suddenly realized, and at the same time, they also judged the truth in their hearts.

Qiu Gubo was puzzled, hesitated for a long time, and finally raised his hand: "I'm sorry, what about me?" What's wrong with me? ”

Yansun looked Qiu Gubo up and down, and then asked a question that made Qiu Gubo extremely devastated: "Who are you?" ”

Qiu Gubo was stunned for a moment, pointed at himself, smiled awkwardly, and looked at the others again, and found that everyone had the words "Who are you" written on their faces.

Le Zhengxian knew that this had greatly hit Qiu Gubo's self-esteem, and when he was about to introduce him, Qiu Gubo asked dissatisfiedly, "You don't even know me?" ”

Everyone shook their heads, and Liu Luoqu asked, "Who are you?" ”

Qiu Gubo pointed to himself and said, "You really don't know me, the first detective in Yongcheng, Qiu Gubo Qiu Catcher?" ”

"What's that?" Wu Sihe frowned and asked, "Qiu what?" ”

Le Zhengxian pulled Qiu Gubo to the side and said in a low voice: "That, Brother Qiu, don't be like this, you said it yourself, you are a policeman, and they are all people from the rivers and lakes, and they are all outsiders, I don't know you, it's normal, it's nothing, don't care." ”

Qiu Gubo opened his mouth slightly, with a dead expression on his face, completely unconvinced that this was true. Because in his heart, he has already been famous in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, maybe someone has compiled his deeds into more than 800 volumes of romances, ready to tell stories on the street.

After Le Zhengxian explained why Qiu Gubo was here, Wang Xuanjin snorted: "Who should I be, it turns out that it is the young director of the Yongcheng Police Station who is not afraid of heaven and earth." ”

"You ......" Qiu Gubo pointed at Wang Xuanjin and was about to get angry, but was dragged away by Le Zhengxian.

Qiu Gubo had no choice but to suppress the fire and stand by and listen quietly.

Wu Sihe didn't know what to say anymore, and Liu Luoqu leaned against the pillar head and looked at the people around him.

Tang Anshu hugged his fists and said: "Two seniors, juniors probably understand what you mean, you decided to disrupt the plan of the dead ear, secretly help us, and at the same time, I also hope to achieve the purpose of revenge through us?" ”

Qiu Gubo said beside him: "It's to use you, what does it mean to achieve the goal through you, don't be so literary, sour." ”

Tang Anshu ignored Qiu Gubo, and Wang Xuanjin just glared at Qiu Gubo.

Yansun didn't hide it: "This kid is right, we just want to use you." ”

Wu Sihe asked puzzledly: "Brother Yan, the ghost has a grudge against the Underworld, so it is reasonable, what kind of hatred do you have with the Underworld?" Was the employer involved in the Underworld at the time? ”

Yansun clenched his fists and said: "Back then, the Dead Ear gave the employer the whereabouts of my family, which led to the killing of all seven members of my family!" You say, I have a grudge against the ear of the dead! ”

Wu Sihe had to nod silently after listening.

Wang Xuanjin walked among the crowd: "The matter has come to this, I won't say anything more, I hope you can sneak into the prison, of course, I will arrange everything, so that you can not only save people, but also help us take revenge, killing two birds with one stone." ”

Liu Luo channel: "It doesn't sound like a loss, you have to kill someone if you go in anyway, and killing one more is just a gesture." ”

Tang Anshu subconsciously glanced at Le Zhengxian next to him, and Le Zhengxian also looked at him at the same time, but he didn't say anything.

Tang Anshu then said, "Senior Wang, do you have any plans?" ”

Wang Xuanjin looked at Yansun, and Yansun said: "It's not realistic to sneak directly into the prison, as far as we know, the so-called map of the prison is not accurate, so we can only sneak in as a prisoner." ”

Wu Siyi was stunned, Liu Luoqu shook his head with a smile, and Tang Anshu also frowned.

Le Zhengxian said: "The risk is too great. ”

Qiu Gubo coaxed beside him: "Isn't this equivalent to throwing yourself into the net? It's better to commit suicide by jumping into the sea. ”

"You know!" Wang Xuanjin was also not polite to Qiu Gubo, "The risk of sneaking into the prison is much greater than blending in as a prisoner, I tell you, you only have one day to think about it, and after a day, if you think about going, go to the tavern where the sailors of Xingang gather to find me, if you don't go, I will spread the news of you, and everyone will break the ......net."

Liu Luoqu clenched the short sword in his hand, but he didn't expect Yansun to walk directly to him and said coldly: "There is another choice, that is, kill us!" ”

Liu Luoqu responded coldly: "Do you think I don't dare?" ”

Qiu Gubo coaxed again next to him: "I really thought you wouldn't dare, go on." ”

Liu Luoqu and Yansun turned their heads to look at Qiu Gubo at the same time, and Le Zhengxian hurriedly blocked in front of Qiu Gubo and hugged his fists to apologize.

Then, Wang Xuanjin and Yansun turned to leave, gradually disappearing into the darkness, and Wang Xuanjin's voice came from afar: "Remember, there is only one day." ”

●

Until he returned to the second cave where he was hiding, Wang Xuanjin's words still echoed in Tang Anshu's ears.

"It's only one day." Tang Anshu, who was sitting by the window in a daze, said to himself.

Not far away, Liu Luoqu, who was standing at the door, and Wu Sihe, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looked at him, and then glanced at each other again.

Liu Luoqu stepped forward and asked, "Anshu, what do you think?" ”

Tang Anshu came back to his senses and looked at Liu Luoqu: "Uncle Liu, I'm thinking, why only give us one day?" ”

Wu Siyi was anxious: "So, did you agree to the plan of the ghost calculation?" ”

"Yes." Tang Anshu nodded and said, "The moment he said it, I agreed in my heart. ”

Liu Luoqu asked again: "Then why didn't you agree to him at that time?" Want to come back and think about it? ”

Tang Anshu shook his head: "It's just that there are some things, I still need to think about it calmly." ”

Wu Sihe asked: "Can you finish it all at once?" ”

"Let's talk about sneaking into the prison first, the first time we failed, after we came back, we followed the clues of the lame man to find Shen Qingmeng, and got half a map from Shen Qingmeng, but Shen Qingmeng put forward other conditions to give the other half, I refused, so, Shen Qingmeng's road is temporarily impassable. Looking back, we found the Dark Ear, and a series of things happened, and finally found out that it was a game set up by the Dead Ear, but it was resolved because of the ghost calculation. Tang Anshu said this, looked at Wu Sihe and asked, "Uncle Wu, what has happened in the past few days, taken together, don't you think something is very wrong?" ”

Liu Luoqu scratched his head: "Of course, but I can't tell anything wrong." ”

Wu Sihe also shook his head, he also felt the same way.

Tang Anshu said with certainty: "Although the process was a little twisty and turning, it was too smooth on the whole. ”

Liu Luoqu frowned: "It's a little." ”

Wu Sihe also nodded: "Yes." ”

"It feels like the three of us are moving through a foggy swamp, cautiously looking for a way to go, worried about getting stuck in the swamp, but no matter how we go, new paths will appear under our feet, and they all lead us in one direction." After Tang Anshu finished speaking, he looked at Liu Luoqu and Wu Sihe, "That is the Prison, and the force or forces behind it have been secretly pushing us into the Prison. ”

Wu Sihe said: "The employer wants us to go to prison, and so does Shen Qingmeng, although Feng Manlou and Styx want to kill us on the surface, but now that they think about it, the killers they sent are more like driving us out of Yongcheng and going to prison." ”

Liu Luoqu also said: "That's right, even Yansun and Wang Xuanjin, the ultimate goal is to let us enter the prison, these people just use different methods, but the ultimate goal is exactly the same." ”

Tang Anshu frowned: "Senior Brother Wu, I think all of this seems to have something to do with the employer behind it. ”

"What do you mean?" Wu Sihe asked, "You mean everything is arranged by the employer?" ”

Tang Anshu nodded: "Now I have this feeling, think about it, at the beginning, he wanted to hire you, and he also asked Uncle Liu and me to cooperate with you, you have a relationship with Wang Xuanjin and Yansun, Uncle Liu used to be the person who is full of wind, and I may be the person who can be closest to the clues of "Jinling Jane", which can explain why there are lower-level killers in Fengmanlou to hunt you down, and why that kind of thing happened when Wang Xuanjin was found to help in the end. ”

Wu Sihe understood: "Anshu, you mean, all this is a set?" ”

Liu Luoqu sighed: "Let's disperse, this business is terrible." ”

Tang Anshu shook his head: "No, now we are riding a tiger, it's too late to leave, the only way is to plan it." ”

●

In the osmanthus house in the south courtyard of the Eight Kings Courtyard, Qiu Gubo and Le Zhengxian, who were hiding in the house, quietly discussed, although Shen Qingmeng in the courtyard wanted to hear what they said, but he didn't dare to approach, after all, the two people in the house were not ordinary people.

At this time, another question arose in her heart - why didn't the shadow master appear? Why did such a big thing happen and the shadow master didn't appear? Could it all have something to do with the Ying Ye's arrangement?

Shen Qingmeng put down the teacup and turned his head to look at the door of the osmanthus house.
