Regarding the motive for committing the crime, Ji Qingyi feels that sometimes a person, and a person with an abnormal heart, does something that most people can't understand, such as this, maybe there is no motive for committing the crime. In her opinion, Guo Hongying is a person with mental illness.

Ji Qingyi turned his head to the prefect and said, "You take the official to the back mountain to find Guo Hongying."

The prefect, who had no sense of existence, trembled three times in fear when he was taken seriously, and said to Ji Qingyi: "Okay, okay, go to the next official."

Ji Qingyi kicked Xiao Jin: "How about borrowing your excellent secret guards tonight?"

Xiao Jinte resolutely retorted: "Impossible, you stay well tonight."

He Qingyan didn't understand, so he leaned aside and asked, "What's wrong tonight?"

Ji Qingyi glanced up with his eyes, and said with a rather pleasing expression: "Hide and hide tonight."

He Xiaobai, who had been fascinated by listening to it for a long time, finally understood a word, and the thief jumped three feet high happily, and clapped his hands and said: "Peek-a-boo is fun!" Xiaobai also wants to be together!! ”

He Qingyun looked at Xiao Jin's expression, as if he had guessed something, patted He Xiaobai's head, and reprimanded: "What are you hiding, shut up and don't talk nonsense."

He Xiaobai looked at Ji Qingyi aggrievedly and muttered: "Sister said that you are hiding at night, you don't take me with you."

The child's thinking is never on the same channel as his own, and He Qingchen didn't bother to explain so much to him, frowning and said, "If you don't obey again, I'll send you home."

He Xiaobai hurriedly closed his mouth. He Qingyi raised his eyes and looked at Ji Qingyi and said, "What do you want to do tonight?"

Ji Qingyi smiled lightly: "Naturally, it is a good way to handle the case quickly."

Xiao Jin snorted coldly, although his face was still unsmiling, anyone could see the curvature of his lips now, and he was sneering: "There is a danger to your life, I will never let you do it."

Ji Qingyi said disapprehantly: "Linyuan Envy is better than retreating and closing the net."

She paused for a moment, and then said, "Besides, don't you believe in the strength of your secret guard?"

Xiao Jin stared at Ji Qingyi's eyes and said word by word: "I don't believe it."

No one believed it but me.

He Qingyan roughly understood, and interjected on the side: "Didn't you already ask the prefect to find Guo Hongying?" Why lure the snake out of the hole tonight? ”

Ji Qingyi responded when he heard this: "Guo Hongying is just guessing, and there is not enough evidence to prove that Guo Hongying is the murderer, and there are still some doubts that have not been solved."

"Those doubts?" He Huaishen must be extremely concerned about the case, and he has to ask any questions.

Ji Qingyi glanced at He Huaishen and said unhurriedly: "First of all, no one will follow a madman up the mountain at night without any warning or reason. Secondly, Guo Hongying, as a woman, doesn't matter if she is crazy or not, with her strength, she also needs to move to deal with another woman, but there is no trace of fighting. Besides, do you really think that those victims were killed in the middle of the night? How could a normal person dare to go out in the middle of the night during this dangerous time period? ”

He Huaishen stroked his beard and hissed: "The girl is saying that this Guo Hongying is a burglary and kidnapping?"

Ji Qingyi shook his head and said lightly: "It's not kidnapping, it's murder."

Xiao Jin's brows furrowed into a tic-tac-toe: "But it's only on the premise that the murderer is Guo Hongying."

Ji Qingyi spread his hands and said, "That's why I'm thinking about luring the snake out of the hole tonight."

Xiao Jin turned sideways slightly, and showed the expression of looking at Ji Qingyi obliquely: "Don't think."

He Qingyun also glanced at her, and said angrily: "Wash and sleep."

Only He Huaishen felt that this method was very good, and after thinking about it, he asked: "Xia Guan thinks you can give it a try, but it's just ......"

The light in Ji Qingyi's eyes extinguished He Huaishen's unfinished sentence in the future. Seeing this, He Huaishen hurriedly said: "It's just that Xia Guan thinks that he can choose another person as bait."

Ji Qingyi looked around at the officials in the yamen, and smiled quite awkwardly: "The murderer doesn't seem to be interested in men."

Besides, if there is really a man in the murderer's target, then even if the head of the oiran taken by the yamen is released, it will really make the prostitutes embarrassed.

As soon as Ji Qingyi's words fell, he heard a noisy sound outside the door. A few people hurriedly went out to look, and saw Hongchen stopped at the door of the yamen, stretching out his head to look inside.

Ji Qingyi was thinking about why one or two came to the Yamen, thinking that the Yamen Playground was having fun? Just thinking that Xiao Jin had already walked over, he motioned to the official to take the board away, and after Hongchen came in, he looked very anxious, and said to Xiao Jin: "Xiao Jin, Xiao Ling, she hasn't returned to the mansion yet."

Xiao Jin was not particularly nervous, and looked extremely calm: "Xu is going to the barracks, don't worry about her."

Hongchen shook his head and said eagerly: "Steward Xiao sent someone to see it, and he was not in the barracks."

It happened that Ji Qingyi came over and listened to the general question: "Is Xiao Ling missing?"

Originally, it was just an unintentional word, but who knew that Xiao Jin said sharply: "How can you be missing?" How do you come to a conclusion! ”

Ji Qingyi was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips and said, "I, I didn't mean that."

Xiao Jin didn't say anything, Hongchen snorted when he saw this: "Maybe it's not necessary to run away from home, look at her so angry yesterday."

Xiao Jin directly pushed away the crowd and walked out, stopped after taking two steps and said, "I'll go to the palace."

Ji Qingyi frowned slightly, thinking why did she always lose her temper just after reconciling? Could it be that he and Xiao Jin are compatible?

After Xiao Jin left, the biggest obstacle was gone, and Ji Qingyi turned his head to He Huaishen and said, "Let's go according to the original plan tonight, if we find Guo Hongying, we will interrogate first, and we must find out the murderer."

Hongchen was stunned and asked, "Do you need my help?"

Ji Qingyi looked at Hongchen's appearance with red lips and white teeth, and said with a smile: "Hongchen, how about you pretend to be a woman tonight to lure the murderer to take the bait?"

Hongchen looked at Ji Qingyi vigilantly, clasped his hands to his chest and said, "Don't."

Ji Qingyi frowned and leaned over to him and said, "Why don't you?" Hongchen looks so beautiful, and when she dresses up, she compares women to her. It's a good idea to use you as bait. ”

Hongchen hid behind He Qingyi, and said with a sad face: "Ji Qingyi, if you bully me like this again, I will ignore you."

After speaking, he touched He Qing and said, "You can help me talk about her."

He Qingyi winked at Hongchen and said, "Benefactor, I think what Qingyi said makes sense."

This He Qingyi was stunned in order to send Qingyi, but he didn't even want a benefactor.

Hongchen swallowed his saliva, raised his foot and pulled his legs and wanted to run, but was pulled by Ji Qingyi, who said to Hongchen with a smile: "Don't run away, I won't let you be a bait."

Although Hongchen didn't run again, he still looked at her vigilantly and said, "Really?"

Ji Qingyi raised her eyebrows: "Naturally."

Then he walked towards the yamen and said, "Although I won't let you be bait, you will do me a favor tonight."

Hongchen was still vigilant, and said with a wary expression: "What are you busy with?"

Ji Qingyi laughed out loud, patted Hongchen's head and said, "Don't look at me with such eyes, it's not for you to pretend to be a woman."

Hongchen took a breath, put his arm down, coughed twice and said to Ji Qingyi: "That's okay, let's say, what can I help?" ”

Ji Qingyi stood on tiptoe and grabbed Hongchen's neck, pulled him down to his side and said: "You are so good at light work, you will follow me every step of the way tonight, and when you see someone following you, you will keep an eye on it, and if there is anything unusual, you will come out to save me." ”

Hongchen was puzzled, scratched his head and asked, "What are you going to do?" So thrilling? ”

Ji Qingyi shook the red dust, and Lang'er Baso asked, "Okay, right?" ”

Hongchen nodded and said, "Yes, but what are you going to do?" ”

Ji Qingyi let go of Hongchen and smiled at him: "It's a long story, I'll tell you when it's over." ”

That night, Ji Qingyi asked the prefect to remove all the officials, and he carried this basket in the middle of the night and walked on the street in white clothes. She still had pepper in her arms, so that when she was in danger, she could sprinkle pepper on the murderer's face, and she looked up as she walked, wondering if Hongchen had followed. Ji Qingyi deliberately waited until midnight to go out, just to create an opportunity for the murderer, but she wasn't so worried that the murderer would attack her on the way, what she was worried about was waiting to enter the room. In order to arrest the murderer, Ji Qingyi asked the prefect to rent a courtyard in the west of the city, and it was quiet along the way, and he didn't find anything or see anything.

Ji Qingyi didn't know if this red dust had kept up, so she was a little nervous when she entered the door, and after carefully opening and closing the door, Ji Qingyi went into the house and lit the candles, pretending to clean up and wandering around the room a few times, and then directly blew out the lights and candles and lay down on the bed. The lack of sleep in the first few days, coupled with the fact that Ji Qingyi didn't recognize the bed very much, when Ji Qingyi woke up again, he was stunned to find that his small bed was gone. Ji Qingyi secretly screamed that it was not good in the next second, probably because she believed in Hongchen too much?

She quickly closed her eyes when she saw a trace of her back, and carefully heard the sound of burning wood around her, and Ji Qingyi's arm was numb and accidentally touched something, soft, like a human hand, which gave her a shudder.

Ji Qingyi opened her eyes carefully, and saw a woman in white satin sitting with her back to her, as if she was looking in the mirror? Ji Qingyi held his breath and stared, looked around with his spare eyes, and was stunned to find that there seemed to be a person lying next to him. Ji Qingyi was startled and hurriedly turned his head to look, and when he saw who it was, Ji Qingyi frowned. Xiao Ling? Why is she here?

Ji Qingyi looked at the white silk woman in front of her, carefully touched Xiao Ling with her hand, and saw that she was still not awake, so she grabbed her hand and pinched it fiercely.
