The place where Xiao Ningqi set up a banquet was the most famous restaurant in Fengxiang City, and when Lu Yiyao and the others went, only the first floor of the originally lively restaurant was still lively, and the second floor was quiet.

was taken by Xiao Er to the largest private room on the second floor and met Xiao Ningqi as the host.

Lu Yiyao is staggered by Xiao Ningqi's local tyrant, it seems that this meal is not so simple.

"Now let's get ready to serve!" Xiao Ningqi instructed Xiao Er.

Then a dozen or so little two came in with dishes.

Every dish exudes an attractive aroma, but Lu Yiyao can't arouse interest, it tastes the same anyway.

"Please!"

"Xiao Gongzi, let's talk about things first! I don't know if our senior brothers and sisters can afford Xiao Gongzi's meal. Shang Yang ignored the slightly hypocritical smile on Xiao Ningqi's face.

Xiao Ningqi put away his smile, "There is indeed a troublesome matter that needs the help of the two of you." ”

"That's right, you must have heard of what happened in the city lately! This time, I wanted to ask the two of you for help. ”

"This kind of thing is investigated by people from the government, what can ordinary people like us do?" Shang Yang smirked, although they wanted to investigate this matter, they didn't want to have anything to do with the government, not to mention that he and Lu Yiyao were actually black households.

"You don't have to be humble." Xiao Ningqi continued, "The ability of the two of them has been witnessed by myself, and I believe that the two of them must be different from ordinary people, so I want to ask the two of them to help, but there is no malice in the next place. ”

Hearing Xiao Ningqi's words, Lu Yiyao and Shang Yang reacted that they might have been exposed the night before yesterday.

"In exchange, I should also be honest to the two of you, I am actually the seventh prince of Xichang Kingdom, the younger brother of the current emperor, and my title is Ning." Xiao Ningqi didn't have the slightest intention of hiding it.

"So the battle in the morning is because you...... Lord Ning? ”

Lu Yiyao thought, her intuition was really accurate!

"Yes!"

"Since the prince told us everything so frankly, we agreed to what you said, but we can't guarantee that we will catch the murderer." Lu Yiyao felt that it didn't hurt to agree to his request, anyway, they were going to meddle in this matter, and now that they have a legitimate identity, many things will be convenient.

"Thank you two for your help!" Xiao Ningqi was overjoyed, and thought that he would work harder.

……

In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Yiyao asked to see the autopsies of the two people, and she originally wanted to see the corpse like a fireworks, but was stopped by Shang Yang.

I can only get the autopsy reports of Ruyan and Miss Li first.

Both of them were drugged and then skinned, so this is the reason why the murderer was able to carry out the murder without anyone finding out.

may be because of the amount of drugs, which led to Ruyan waking up in pain at the end, screaming, and was quickly killed by the murderer.

Miss Li's autopsy report was rather sketchy because of the Li family's obstruction, but one thing that can be determined is that Miss Li also showed signs of Chinese drug abuse before her death.

Lu Yiyao still wanted to see that Miss Li in person, but the people in the Li Mansion refused to cooperate with the government.

Xiao Ningqi thought of the way to follow the city lord and Taishou to mourn tomorrow, the Li family is a big family in Fengxiang City, and they are also inextricably linked with the imperial court, so Taishou and the city lord will go to mourn.

Although Lu Yiyao felt that he could come directly to visit the Li Mansion at night, it would be better to be a gentleman on the beam if he had a serious way to go in!

When night fell, they should have slept peacefully, but few people really fell asleep, for fear that the next person to be poisoned would be themselves.

Lu Yiyao saw that the number of night patrol soldiers in the city was indeed doubled, but the murderer was very human, and he didn't know if it would be useful to do so.

Knowing that someone is doing evil, but not knowing who it is, he can only watch someone die in front of him, Lu Yiyao hates this sense of powerlessness.

Until dawn, Lu Yiyao moved her stiff body, and she didn't sleep all night, but she didn't feel tired.

However, she observed it all night, and she didn't see any movement, so there should have been no dead last night!

Lu Yiyao was relieved for a while, and Xiao Ningqi hurriedly came over and knocked on the door, "Is Miss Lu up?" ”

"What's wrong?" Lu Yiyao opened the door and saw Xiao Ningqi frowning.

"Someone just came to report that another girl has died!"

Lu Yiyao frowned, "Who is it?" ”

"Let's go over and have a look!"

"What about Shang Yang?"

"Mr. Shang is already waiting for us downstairs."

……

When Lu Yiyao and the three of them passed, the government lined up to surround the surroundings, but there were still many people watching the excitement, Lu Yiyao looked at everyone's different expressions.

The dead was a girl named Yu Cui, who said that she was supposed to get up at this time, but there was no one to see, and when she opened the door, she saw her daughter's body.

The two elders almost fainted, but the soldiers who were on patrol came over and reported the situation.

Yu Cui's corpse was not moved, sitting on the chair, still staring, looking inexplicably infiltrating.

The body was still hot, indicating that the murderer may have just committed the crime, and it is very likely that the murderer ...... Just mingle with the crowd watching the excitement outside.

Watch them enter, and then slowly escape with the skin they have just peeled.

Lu Yiyao couldn't help but pull Shang Yang out, her eyes patrolling back and forth in this group of people watching the excitement, but nothing came out, was the murderer covering it up too well, or did she miss something?

Suddenly, Lu Yiyao had a feeling of a chill in her back, as if she was being targeted by something, Lu Yiyao turned her head, but she didn't see anything.

Is it a delusion?

Yu Cui's body was transported back to the government office to await an autopsy report.

According to the understanding, Yu Cui is a very quiet girl, very beautiful, and the neighbors around her are all helping each other, and Yu Cui has a good appearance.

Lu Yiyao almost understood the criteria for this murderer to find a target.

One, women

Second, a beautiful woman

Lu Yiyao was curious about what the murderer was doing when he skinned them? Is it just for collecting?

Is it possible to plant other people's skins on himself, as soon as this idea came out, Lu Yiyao was stunned, why do you think this reason is very likely?

"Is there a way for Shang Yang to plant other people's skins on himself?"

Shang Yang thought for a moment and understood what Lu Yiyao meant, "Are you saying that the murderer peeled the skin in order to plant other people's skins on himself?" ”

"Yes, but this was unheard of before! This is just a conjecture on my part, and it is not necessarily true. ”

"But maybe not? There are a lot of things we don't know, and I think this reason might be more explainable. Shang Yang continued Lu Yiyao's words.

"However, don't be too sad, you didn't sleep all night last night, you have to pay more attention."

Lu Yiyao didn't know how to explain to Shang Yang that she couldn't sleep at all, so she could only skip the matter by haha.
