Chapter 547

Xiao Zhan immediately asked:

"More than 180 years ago, in Fengshan City, there was a family surnamed Mo who opened a restaurant, and he was usually kind and charitable, but later he was killed by someone for money."

Jia Shengqiang's eyes lit up:

"This is just an ordinary case, isn't it? Why did you go out of your way to investigate this?"

Mu Wanqing said calmly:

"The person surnamed Mo, his name is Mo Zhongsheng, a relative of a friend of mine, who knew that I was going to pass by Fengshan City, and specially asked me to help check the files of the year, he always felt that Mo Zhongsheng's death was not just as simple as making money and killing people."

Hearing Mu Wanqing's words, Jia Shengqiang's gaze swept over the faces of Xiao Zhan and the others, and then slowly spoke:

"When I first came to Fengshan City as the city lord, I looked through a lot of files, and I also read the case of Mo Zhongsheng you mentioned."

"The perpetrators are indeed a few people that Mo Zhongsheng usually helps, and after they were caught by the City Lord's Mansion, they all confessed to their crimes, and completely explained the details, it can be determined that they were murdered for money, and there is no other involvement."

Saying that, Jia Shengqiang smiled:

"Miss Mu, you should also know that recently, all cities have been strengthening their defenses to guard against the attack of the Moyun World, and I still have a lot of official business to do, so I won't accompany them."

After speaking, Jia Shengqiang stood up directly, obviously going to send off the guests directly.

Xiao Zhan suddenly asked:

"At the beginning, the restaurant that was opened in Mozhong, is it still there?"

Jia Shengqiang nodded, and said impatiently: "The restaurant is still there, it is in Xicheng District, and it is now called Juyuan Restaurant."

After speaking, Jia Shengqiang left the tea room directly.

A guard hugged his fist directly at Mu Wanqing and the others:

"Several, please."

Mu Wanqing looked at Xiao Zhan, Xiao Zhan nodded, and left the City Lord's Mansion with a few people.

Outside the Castle Lord's Mansion.

Xiao Zhan looked at Mu Wanqing, Ye Wei, Mo Hongmei, and Deng Xiaozhuang and Liu Yongjun, who came from not far away.

Deng Xiaozhuang lowered his voice and said:

"Big brother, not long after you entered the City Lord's Mansion, dozens of people from the City Lord's Mansion went to the Juyuan Restaurant and pretended to be ordinary drinkers to drink inside."

Liu Yongjun spat out, "Big brother, I think the City Lord's Mansion must be greasy."

Xiao Zhan frowned and pondered for a moment, then looked at Ye Wei and said:

"Vivi, you find a safe place to hide first, I still have to go to the case vault, and I will come back soon to meet you."

Ye Wei nodded, "Then be careful."

Xiao Zhan let out an "um", looked at Deng Xiaozhuang again, and said:

"Take care of Miss Mo, don't let her run away, if something happens to her, the Moyun World will hunt us down for the rest of our lives."

Deng Xiaozhuang nodded with a serious face: "Big brother, don't worry, I know how to measure."

After a few people left, Xiao Zhan found a corner where no one was around, jumped over, directly crossed the courtyard wall, and landed in a garden in the city lord's mansion.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, and Xiao Zhan waited in the garden for a while, until it was completely dark, and then he quickly flashed in the darkness and swept out in the direction of the case library.

The case library is an independent courtyard in the southwest of the city lord's mansion.

The small courtyard is surrounded by a wall more than ten zhang high, and in four directions, there are also four vermilion towers 100 meters high.

On these four towers, there are constantly people walking around, and they can monitor the movement of the entire area at any time.

Xiao Zhan walked forward in the darkness and approached the only gate in the courtyard of the case library.

The gate was closed and guarded by two guards.

Xiao Zhan frowned.

Today, Jia Shengqiang already knew that they wanted to enter the case vault to check the files, and if it was for security reasons, they should send more people to guard the case vault.

But at this time, there were still only two guards.

Xiao Zhan was thinking that Jia Shengqiang didn't take this seriously

What, or did you guess that he would come to the case vault and ambush the master in the case vault?

But no matter what, Xiao Zhan was not timid.

Because the strongest in the City Lord's Mansion is Jia Shengqiang, who is the sixth layer of the Starlight Realm.

This strength can't leave Xiao Zhan behind.

Without any hesitation, Xiao Zhan jumped and directly climbed over the wall more than ten zhang high.

Because of his speed, and the darkness of the night, the people on the towers on all sides only saw a vague shadow flashing, but they were not sure if it was human.

And Xiao Zhan has quietly fallen in the courtyard of the case library.

In the courtyard, there is a row of rooms.

Xiao Zhan came to the door, reached out and grabbed the door lock, and after shattering the door lock, he directly entered the case library.

An entire row of rooms was opened, and there were rows of shelves stacked with countless materials on the shelves.

Xiao Zhan searched for a long time before he found the file materials that recorded those cases more than 180 years ago.

After looking at it for a while, Xiao Zhan suddenly pulled out a book of excerpts.

What is recorded on the excerpt is the original case of Mo Zhongsheng.

After reading it, Xiao Zhan suddenly frowned.

First of all, there are many places outlined in red pen on this fold, and looking at the color of the pen and ink, it is obvious that it has been repeatedly read at different times.

Xiao Zhan wrote down all the details, and he couldn't find any clues for a while.

After putting the file back in its place, Xiao Zhan left the case library directly, and after coming out of the City Lord's Mansion, he went to meet with Ye Wei and the others.

Several people lived in an inn, only two streets away from the Juyuan Restaurant.

Castle Lord's Mansion.

After listening to the report of his subordinates, Jia Shengqiang slowly spoke:

"That case has been re-examined dozens of times over the past so many years, and let the person surnamed Xiao read the file, maybe he can really find out any clues, don't worry about it for now, but send someone to keep an eye on them."

The next day.

As soon as the morning dawned, Xiao Zhan took Deng Xiaozhuang, Liu Yongjun, Ye Wei, Mo Hongmei and Mu Wanqing to Juyuan Restaurant.

Mo Hongmei's mood is very wrong. c

As soon as she entered the restaurant, her eyes were red.

Although he had never met his grandparents, he had heard about his grandparents from Mo Rusheng's mouth.

Thinking of her grandparents' good deeds and accumulation of virtue in their lives, but in the end it ended like that, Mo Hongmei couldn't help but redden.

There are many things about Mo Rusheng, even her biological mother Ruan Qingxia doesn't know, but she Mo Hongmei knows.

Therefore, he knew how much hatred his father had in his heart.

He knew how much his father was suffering.

"Hello guests!"

The shopkeeper greeted him with a smile and walked upstairs with Xiao Zhan and a few others.

Although it was still early in the morning, there were already many people who came to the restaurant for morning wine.

Xiao Zhan and the others went up to the third floor before they sat down at the table by the window.

The shopkeeper asked with a smile:

"How many people, what do you want?"

Xiao Zhan said casually:

"Go to the six jars of your best wine, and then have some side dishes."

"Okay!" The shopkeeper responded with a smile, and then turned around and walked downstairs.

"I'll go make it easier," Xiao Zhan said this, and got up directly, but walked upstairs.

The dossier contains a layout plan of the restaurant.

More than 100 years later, the restaurant has been repainted, but the pattern has not changed.

Xiao Zhan went up to the top floor, but found that two men were blocking the staircase.

"Stop! It's forbidden to approach here!"

Xiao Zhan frowned, and the next moment he rushed up directly, stunned the two of them, and stood at the door of a room.

According to the dossier, this room is the room where Mo Zhongsheng once was.

Mo Zhongsheng and his wife were also killed in this room.

Xiao Zhan could sense that in the room, someone was talking in a whisper at this time.

Xiao Zhan thought for a moment, and directly pushed the door in.

In the room, the two middle-aged men got up instantly and looked at Xiao Zhan at the same time.

"Who are you!?"

The middle-aged man, who was slightly fat, looked at Xiao Zhan coldly and asked.

Another tall and thin middle-aged man, with the aura on his body surging, directly pulled out his long sword.

Xiao Zhan immediately sensed the strength of the two, the slightly fatter one was the first layer of the Starlight Realm, and the tall and thin middle-aged man was the second layer of the Starlight Realm.

Xiao Zhan walked straight in front of the two of them, and the momentum on his body was revealed a little, which made the two middle-aged people shocked.

"Don't panic, I'm just here to investigate something."

Xiao Zhan got straight to the point:

"I am a member of the Brave Army, and I have been ordered to investigate the cause of the death of Mo Zhongsheng, the founder of the restaurant, more than 180 years ago."

The two middle-aged men glanced at each other and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Xiao Zhan was not coming for the two of them.

Xiao Zhan said again, "I don't care what you're planning, just tell me what you know."

The slightly fat middle-aged man hugged his fists and said respectfully:

"This son, I have only been in charge of this restaurant for more than ten years, and I don't know anything about what happened more than 180 years ago, this is the truth."

Xiao Zhan looked at the tall and thin middle-aged man again.

The middle-aged man also arched his hand and said:

"This is the first time I've come to Fengshan City, and I don't know what Your Excellency is talking about."

Xiao Zhan nodded, he didn't expect the two of them to know anything.

Xiao Zhan's figure flashed, and his fingers clicked on the two of them, directly sealing the strength of the two people's bodies.

Then Xiao Zhan began to check in the room.

"Are there any secret rooms or secret passages in this room?"

The slightly fat middle-aged man shook his head, "No, it's just such a big place."

As soon as the words fell, I saw Xiao Zhan walking in front of a wall.

The walls are intact, not even a single crevice.

Xiao Zhan was just about to turn around, but Xiao Wu's voice sounded in Xiao Zhan's mind:

"Big brother, what are you looking for?"

Xiao Zhan replied:

"I'm checking to see if there's a secret room in this room."

Xiao Wu immediately replied:

"Right behind this wall."

Xiao Zhan immediately stopped, and slammed out a punch, causing the wall in front of him to collapse.

Dust erupted instantly.

When the dust cleared, a secret room of only a dozen square meters appeared in front of Xiao Zhan's eyes.

The two middle-aged men were also stunned, and just as the two were about to step forward, they saw Xiao Zhan look at the two of them coldly.

The two immediately paused, then turned their backs.

Xiao Zhan walked directly into the secret room.

There was a thick layer of dust on the floor of the secret room, and it could be seen that no one had entered for many years.

There is no mention of this chamber in the dossier.

And this secret room is very hidden.

There was no clue from the outside, and if it wasn't for Xiao Wu's reminder, Xiao Zhan wouldn't have been able to discover this secret room.

In the secret room, there is a bookshelf, and on the bookshelf, there are some wooden boxes.

Xiao Zhan opened it and saw that there were some secret letters, all of which were correspondence between Mo Zhongsheng and other people hidden in the Tianlan world.

One of them is a letter informing Mo Zhongsheng to go to a certain location to escort an important item back to the world of Moyun.

Come to think of it, it was the time when the Realm Lord of the Moyun World came and wanted people to send the world core back to the Moyun World.

Xiao Zhan looked in the secret room again, and his gaze suddenly fixed on the dusty table.

On the table was a secret letter, which was covered in dust, and if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to spot it

The existence of faith.

Xiao Zhan reached out and picked up the secret letter, and with a flick of his wrist, the dust on it fell one after another, revealing the lines of handwriting on it.

The letter reads as follows:

"I know the mission of escorting Zhibao, and I will leave for the target location in three days."

"Another: I found that Zhao Si is acting strangely, I am afraid that something will happen, if you come into contact with him, you must be careful."

There are only two sentences on the content of the secret letter.

Xiao Zhan was confused after reading it.

But in the next moment, Xiao Zhan walked back to the bookshelf and flipped out more than a dozen letters.

From these letters, Xiao Zhan found that Mo Zhongsheng had a good relationship with the person named Zhao Si, and the correspondence between the two was also the most frequent.

As for whether Mo Zhongsheng took other people's reminders seriously and was therefore wary of Zhao Si, Xiao Zhan did not know for the time being.

From the words of these letters, Xiao Zhan also obtained some information from Zhao Si.

Zhao Si is the same age as Mo Zhongsheng, and when the two were still in the Moyun World, they were good friends.

After being sent undercover in Tianlan World, the two cooperated with each other and learned a lot of information.

Mo Zhongsheng opened a restaurant, and Zhao Si infiltrated the City Lord's Mansion and became a captain of the City Lord's Mansion.
