"I understand." Pei Shu sat back again, bent one arm to support the back of the chair, and the other hand was on the case, and tapped the long case with his index finger, saying, "If there is nothing to do in Xingjibo Mansion, then there is nothing to do." If they are really unclear, they should not be tolerated. ”

At this point, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, and a murderous aura suddenly appeared on his face: "As far as I know, this capital may not be ......."

The murderous aura suddenly stopped, and he stopped talking, seemingly casually picked up the teacup and took a sip, paused, and took another sip.

Chen Ying looked at him quietly, waiting for him to come over by himself.

Sure enough, after putting down the teacup, the murderous aura on Pei Shu's body disappeared without a trace, still raising his eyebrows and smiling, and said, "Leave this matter to me." However, Miss Chen San also has to be prepared, if Your Majesty is moved by me, maybe she will have to summon you for questioning. ”

Chen Ying looked at him a little confused for a while.

Pei Shu's sudden murderous aura made her a little unsure of the role that Xingjibo Mansion played in this incident.

After a few moments, she said, "I understand. I don't know anything about it, and I'll only answer what I know. The rest will naturally be handed over to the little marquis. ”

Pei Shu smiled with satisfaction: "The third girl is smart. ”

From refusing to cooperate to praising in person, this change is not undramatic, and the better Pei Shu's attitude, the less difficult it will be for them to cooperate in the future.

But even so, Chen Ying didn't feel the slightest joy, and she was still very worried in her heart.

Compared with the stabbing case, the case of the unknown female corpse is more worrying.

Even in modern times, in the early 21st century, when DNA technology was not yet developed, the police were at a loss, let alone in ancient times.

Sometimes, waiting is also a way to resolve a case.

The premise is that you can't wait.

"Adults need to be prepared for both." Chen Ying whispered softly, and there seemed to be an undercurrent surging in her watery eyes: "If the two timelines I listed can't play any role, then you still need adults to reveal some seemingly non-existent news to see if they can alarm anyone." ”

Pei Shu glanced at her attentively, and there was a hint of playfulness in his slightly raised eyes: "Third girl...... It seems to be very deceitful. ”

"We have too little evidence in our hands, how can we investigate if we don't cheat?" Chen Ying replied very calmly: "Besides, I didn't ask the little marquis to lie." As long as the news is plausible and pretentious, maybe the murderer will make a move. ”

"That makes sense." Pei Shu bowed his head, held the pot and refilled half a cup of tea, but he suddenly raised his eyes halfway, his sharp eyes stabbed Chen Ying's body, and said with a smile: "It's nothing to fake some news, aren't you tired of cheating." ”

Chen Ying nodded thoughtfully: "The little marquis is the real smart person. ”

The two of them glanced at each other, and inexplicably felt a bit of tacit understanding.

Pei Shu turned his gaze away, put the teapot down, took out the wood carving from his sleeve, lowered his eyes and looked at it for a long time, and then said in a very low voice: "I can think of a way to find this evidence, but ...... Not too much hope. ”

Chen Ying followed his line of sight, and his eyebrows were lightly locked: "I have already asked someone, this kind of wood is the most ordinary peach wood, and the lacquer color on it is the best vermilion lacquer, as for the layer of tung oil outside, it has basically peeled off, and it is really impossible to investigate." ”

It took her a while to find out about such a little bit of news, but there was nothing to say.

"Judging from the carving technique, this person does not know martial arts." Pei Shu said, his eyes swept towards Chen Ying.

What Chen Ying gave was an imitation, and his judgment was almost equal to nonsense.

Chen Ying said apologetically: "This is not mine." Because I was afraid of accidents, I didn't bring the real thing. But don't worry, my lord, I will write another detective record in a few days and hand it over to the little marquis to forward to His Majesty. At that time, I will hand over the genuine product to the little marquis, please see it for yourself. ”

With Emperor Yuan Jiadi's words, she will have more contact with Pei Shu, and it is also easy to hand over the real wood carving to Pei Shu when handing over the records.

Speaking of this, she picked up the teacup, and the words suddenly changed: "Could the little marquis be a guest in the rivers and lakes?" ”

"Yes." Pei Shu seemed to know that she would ask this, and answered very smoothly, "I used to walk on the rivers and lakes back then, and I barely knew some martial arts. ”

Chen Ying pondered for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "The assassination case is also because the little marquis is skilled in martial arts, so you went to investigate the assassin?" ”

This inference was based on the question he had asked earlier in the palace.

When Pei Shu heard this, he didn't show surprise, but only tilted the corner of his left mouth to the side: "Please forgive me, girl, I can't say anything about this." ”

This slanted smile undoubtedly revealed the gangsterism on his body.

Chen Ying was as good as a stream, and immediately changed her words: "Then let's talk about Jiaoxing's case." ”

The nameless female corpse, they can't talk about much, and the stabbing case can't talk about it because it's too sensitive, and the only thing left is Jiaoxing's case.

"That maid named Xiao Zhen, has the little marquis found it?" Chen Ying asked.

When Pei Shu heard this, the smile on his face dispersed, and he didn't drink the teacup, only replied with four words: "There is no news yet." ”

Chen Ying observed him for a moment.

She could feel that Pei Shu had more suspicion about Xingjibo Mansion than her.

The two of them sat quietly for a while, and then Chen Ying asked again: "After Your Majesty read my detective record, is there any news?" ”

"Your Majesty only said that it was interesting, but he didn't say anything else." Pei Shu's expression was a little more normal this time.

Chen Ying nodded.

There was silence in the private room, and the two of them sat across the desks, one drinking tea, and the other turning his head to look out the window.

There is no topic to talk about.

Except for the case, there seems to be nothing to say between them.

"The little marquis said yesterday that he had something important to talk about, but he didn't know what it was?" After a while, Chen Ying finally remembered this stubble.

I've been talking about her before, but I've forgotten the original intention of yesterday's appointment.

Pei Shu seemed to have been reminded by her, raised his hand and patted the back of the chair, and said with a smile: "I forgot it myself." As he spoke, he looked at Chen Ying and asked, "I want to know, what method did Miss Chen use to conclude that the nameless corpse was a woman?" ”

At this point, he looked at her with a "don't lie to me" look, and the corners of his mouth slanted to the side: "Please also ask the girl to tell the truth, don't skip the lie." ”

Chen Ying didn't expect him to inquire about this, and after being stunned for a moment, he smiled and said, "This is actually not difficult, but I'm afraid my answer will be a bit ...... It's uncomfortable, does the little marquis really want to listen? ”

Pei Shu nodded: "That's nature." ”

Chen Ying stared at him for a while, then got up and walked to the small table next to him, and brought over the pen and ink and other things.
