10 a.m.

In Xu Zun's room, there was a burst of secret words.

"My lord," Huo Anu said in a low voice, "Zhao Yu is still a trickle!" I pretended to be drunk and tried him several times, but he still didn't show any flaws! ”

"Hmm......" Xu Zun nodded slightly, first thinking for a few seconds, and then asked, "Where is he now?" ”

"As you instructed, let him follow the blind girl!" "Do you really think there's something wrong with the blind girl?" ”

"It's just a gut feeling," Xu Zun said, "not necessarily accurate, but it never hurts to check it." ”

Flutter ......

Who knows, Huo Anu didn't know what to think, and actually laughed.

Seeing Xu Zun looking at herself, she hurriedly said:

"It's nothing, I just want to laugh when I think of Zhao Yu biting your ear with you and being teased by you in the Hou Mansion.

"Huh......

"I think you're right," Huo Anu said, "Zhao Yu is either no problem or too problematic. ”

"No," Xu Zun shook his head and said, "There must be something wrong with him, but I don't know what is wrong with him!" ”

"Oh......" Huo Anu still couldn't hide his smile.

"What about Ku Niang? What does he think? Xu Zun asked again.

"It's normal," Huo Anu replied, "but I'm curious and puzzled, when I never express my opinion on whether Ku Niang is Liu Dong's wife." ”

"Interesting......" The corners of Xu Zun's mouth showed a hint of playfulness, and he became more and more curious about Zhao Yu's identity.

"My lord," asked Huo Anu again, "and what are we to do next?" ”

"Tomorrow," Xu Zun said, "Lord Assassin will definitely let me thoroughly investigate the serial disappearance of the girl and the corpse of the monk-clothed woman, but I don't have a clue about the breakthrough of these two cases, and I need to think about it." ”

"My lord," Huo Anu asked, "what if Lord Assassin doesn't let you look into these two cases?" Let you go back to Wude City Mansion to take office, what should you do? ”

"Hehe......" Xu Zun looked at Huo Anu and nodded with a smile, "Anu, you've only been with me for a few days, and you've made great progress!" ”

"Of course," said Huo Anu, smugly, "I'm not the kind of person with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. ”

"Well," Xu Zun nodded slightly, and said, "If that Assassin doesn't let me investigate these two cases, then I'll have to check him well!" Hehe......"

……

The next morning.

Xu Zun took Zhao Yu and Huo Anu to the wreckage of the Lu family's bookstore.

Xu Zun and Huo Anu were radiant and radiant, while Zhao Yu was tired and yawned because he was following the blind girl.

The blind girl returned to the inn to rest after singing, and there was nothing abnormal, and Zhao Yu followed him for half a night in vain.

The fire at the Lujia Bookstore burned so badly that there was hardly anything left except for broken walls and collapsed beams.

Even so, under the order of the head catcher Ju Ran, the catchers of Shangyuan City were still carefully searching the ruins.

At the same time, they sent people around to see if they could find witnesses.

"Lord Xu," Ju Ran reported to Xu Zun, "Yesterday, we have sent people to visit Dr. Nalu's relatives and friends, and these people have confirmed that there was nothing abnormal about Dr. Nalu's family before they disappeared. ”

"Oh......" Xu Zun stepped into the ruins, asking as he walked, "Tell me about this Dr. Lu in detail!" How is he a person? ”

"This ......," Ju Ran was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied, "Dr. Lu is a humble person and gets along well with relatives and friends.

"Also, Dr. Lu is good at writing on weekdays, and he has no bad habits."

"I've heard," Xu Zun said after pausing in one of the ruins, "this Dr. Lu has some family savings, right?" ”

"Yes," Ju Ran replied, "relying on its relationship with the printing house, the business of the Lu Family Bookstore is particularly good. ”

"Hmm......" Xu Zun hummed, but squatted down, checking something.

At this moment, the place where they were was was the center of the bookstore, and it was all charred black in front of them, and only some of the scorched and burned bookshelves could be faintly recognized.

Looking at these scorched marks, Xu Zun began to recall the situation on the day of the fire, the flames came suddenly and fiercely, and the fireballs exploded in one fell swoop.

If he and Huo Anu had entered the bookstore at that time, they would have been seriously injured, if not burned to death by the fire.

I don't know, did the person who set the fire do it on purpose?

"Oh, how can this be?"

Xu Zun was thinking about it, but suddenly a girl's voice like a silver bell suddenly came from behind him.

No way?

Xu Zun was secretly startled, and hurriedly turned his head, but when he saw that the person standing behind him was indeed Miss Lu Mingyue, the daughter of the Hou Mansion!

Today, Miss Lu is wearing a beautiful white dress, a purple brocade coat, a pair of beautiful big eyes are clear like water, and the whole person is like a butterfly dancing in the wind, and like a smart and thorough fairy.

Behind Lu Mingyue, there was also a Taoist priest with immortal wind bones, who was Wei Beihui, the guardian of the Hou Mansion.

"Miss Lu," Xu Zun stammered, "why are you here?" ”

"Didn't you say yes?" Lu Mingyue jumped in front of Xu Zun lively, "Do I want to follow my brother to investigate the case?" ”

What!?

Hearing this, Ju Ran, Zhao Yu, Huo Anu and others almost fell.

"Miss Lu, let's ...... We don't mean ......"

Xu Zungang wanted to plead his case, didn't he say that he would bow down after the case was solved?

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he found that Lu Mingyue was glaring at him vigorously.

Oh......

Xu Zun immediately understood that in order to be able to come out and follow him to investigate the case, Lu Mingyue must lie to Hou Ye that he had already married him!

This girl......

"Little sister," Xu Zun had no choice but to act with her with a bitter face, "For my brother, I haven't found a clue yet, and when I find a clue, it's not too late to ask you to investigate the case together!" ”

"Alas~~" Lu Mingyue pursed her lips, "Brother's words are different, when you find a clue, what else can I learn from you?"

"Besides, I'm very familiar with Xiaofeng, maybe I can help you!"

The words were reasonable, well-founded and affectionate, so that Xu Zun had nothing to refuse.

In desperation, Xu Zun had no choice but to continue to ask Ju Ran, "Ju Tou, have you ever found any property in the ruins?" ”

"I only found some scattered copper coins, silver, jade and other items," Ju Ran replied, "but compared to the Lu family's financial resources, it is obviously far behind." ”

"Yes, yes, all their money is stored in the bank!" Lu Mingyue hurriedly interjected, "Xiaofeng told me in person, her father is afraid that it is not safe to put the silver at home. ”

"Miss Lu, what's ...... Where is there a money bank? Ju Ran asked hurriedly.

"I don't know," Lu Mingyue replied simply, "You guys go and check!" ”

"Good, good ......"

Ju Ran's forehead was already sweating, and he immediately recruited a few catchers and sent them to the major money houses to inquire about the news.

"Lord Xu, oh no...... Brother Xu! Lu Mingyue shouted more and more, "After Xiaofeng's family disappeared, I came to the bookstore to look for her, and later I came in over the wall to look for her, but I didn't see a single ......."

"Oh?" Xu Zun was surprised, "Have you been here?" ”

"Yes," Lu Mingyue replied, "I came in and looked around, and found that there was no one, so I went over the wall again!" ”

"Didn't you find anything out of the ordinary?" Xu Zun asked again.

"No?" Lu Mingyue shook her head.

"Hmm......" Xu Zun thought for a while and said, "Lu Xiaomei, you came just in time today, I do have a few questions to ask you about the disappearance of Lu Xiaofeng's family......
