Chapter 44: The Mystery of Walnuts
Lian Yi searched all the way and found that Xing Fei was dragged to the door of the Zhenyu School, and the whole person was hung on the fence gate.
The leading guard shouted into the school, saying that Xing Fei was a great crime to assassinate the court officials. and all relevant personnel of Xing Fei are all in the same party.
When Lian Yu trotted over, the leading guard was saying: The people inside are quickly captured, don't wait for them to kill and not leave a single one.
"What do you mean by not staying?! It's not clear what happened, why did you kill innocents indiscriminately! This is my schoolhouse, and there is a plaque from His Majesty on it. Why, you don't want to offend Your Majesty?! Lian Yu stood in front of the door, crossed his waist and shouted back, full of momentum.
The night smoke can't stop her, let alone the other shrimp generals.
Now that she received that the students had all gone to the palace, only Shopkeeper Ji, Xing Fei and some diners who had accompanied her from Peicheng lived in the Zhenyu Academy.
Those diners had also listened to a few classes before, and they were tinkering with stir-fried vegetables behind closed doors in the school hall every day. Because they couldn't see Lian Yu, they couldn't ask for advice.
These days, Shopkeeper Ji and Xing Fei eat dark food.
At present, Lian Yu doesn't know why Xing Fei suddenly appeared in Yefu and why he was killed by Night Smoke. Now the night smoke is going to be wiped out, but how can the shopkeeper and those diners be innocent?
The cause of Xing Fei's death, maybe what does Shopkeeper Ji know?
Thinking of this, Lian Yu helped Xing Fei down on the fence gate and placed it flat on the ground. Pushed open the fence door and ran towards Shopkeeper Ji's room.
The team of guards from the Night Mansion who came in closely behind him kicked Xing Fei, who was in the way, to the side. Xing Fei rolled and a walnut fell out of his sleeve.
When Lian Yi rushed to Ji's shopkeeper's room, he saw the door open, and he said bad in his heart.
After entering the door, I saw the shopkeeper Ji on the blood-spattered low table.
He lay on the table and stabbed in the back. The trail of blood spilled out a meandering river and seeped into the cracks of the planks on the ground.
In the hand of the shopkeeper Ji, he was still holding a cup, and there was water in the cup.
He had just poured a glass of water and was about to drink it when he was unsuspectingly stabbed through the back of the heart and killed.
Lian Yu walked behind the shopkeeper Ji and carefully checked the knife edge, and the angle and depth were just right. The man who did it was a pure killer.
Kill with a single sword, clean and neat.
Lian Yu turned around and looked at the half-open window.
The killer jumped in through the window, killed, drew the knife, and walked away the same way.
Lian Yu touched the neck of the shopkeeper Ji, and the corpse was still warm.
Those guards stopped at the door, and after seeing the death of Shopkeeper Ji, they glanced at Lian Yu and left without saying anything.
Lian Yu suddenly thought of something and strode out.
In the few rooms behind Ji's shopkeeper's house, there are nine diners.
Lian Yu has seen them one by one, and all of them are the same way as the Ji shopkeeper.
"Damn it!"
Lian Yu scolded in a low voice.
Although she is ruthless, she kills all evil people.
Those wicked who try to hurt her, or the weak and innocent, should be killed.
But innocent people don't deserve to die.
Lian Yu clenched his fists.
Because he was going to set off with the queen early tomorrow morning, Lian Yi could only report the murder to the government late at night.
Although I know that those people in the government are useless people who are bluffing, I still have to find them to do this kind of thing after dealing with the aftermath.
As for what happened in this schoolhouse, why did ten people die tragically? The government will eventually convict a trumped-up guilty person and crime in order to close the case.
Lian Yi plans to come back with the queen when he comes back to settle the account with Yeyan.
Because her intuition told her that this matter had nothing to do with the night smoke.
The ten people who were killed were carried away by the people of the government, and even Xing Fei, who was thrown at the door and left no one to care, was also taken away.
When Lian Yu came out of the schoolhouse, he looked up at the plaque.
When the plaque was hung at the beginning, it was so lively!
Now, he is walking and dying.
The more I look at it now, the more unlucky this plaque becomes.
Lian Gardenia turned around twice, looking for a stone, and then found a round walnut.
She didn't think much of it, picked up the walnut and threw it at the plaque.
This blow, with three points of internal force, thought to knock down the plaque.
The walnut smashed against the metal edge of the plaque, cracked with a click, and fell. The plaque shook a few times, cracked in the middle with a click, and didn't fall off.
Lian Yu smacked her lips, doubting her own level. Doubts about the quality of the plaque were also expressed.
She looked down at the cracked walnut, which was stuffed with a ball of white paper.
Lian Yu squatted down, picked up half of the walnut, pinched out the paper ball inside, and unfolded it.
The words on the paper ball were small and pitiful, and Lian Yu squinted at it. "What eagle what battalion? What what and? What's that?! Reading and reading, Lian Yu became irritable.
Not only were those words small, but most of them she didn't recognize.
This note, reading it means not reading it!
Lian Yu threw himself on the ground in a puff and stepped on it a few times.
Immediately found that the half of the walnut in front of me, why is it familiar? This seems to be the walnuts that the night smoke guy often has in his hand!
Then pick it up and take a closer look, and find that the magnet attached to the edge of the walnut is buckled together by the two halves of the walnut, and it is immediately adsorbed into a complete walnut without any flaws.
Nightsmoke seems to have a big secret.
Lian Yu picked up the paper ball full of footprints, re-unfolded it, folded it, and stuffed it into his sleeve.
This thing, although I can't understand it for the time being, will always be useful in the future, and stay and so on.
Lian Yu grabbed the hollow walnut and pinched it hard, and the walnut turned into powder and dispersed with the wind. It's a lot of fun to destroy corpses or something.
Lian Yu clapped his hands and returned to the palace step by step to catch up on sleep.
...
Early the next morning, the queen took the mighty palace maids, chamberlains, and guards... Depart from the main entrance of the Royal Palace.
The queen rode in a four-wheel-drive carriage covered by an orange mesh-like curtain.
Lian Yu rode a horse and followed the carriage, drowsy. When others saw this goddess chef girl sitting on horseback and staggering, they were frightened one by one.
She looked too much like she was going to fall down at any moment.
"Wait for me... Queen mother... Wait for the ministers...... "Dongming rode a horse from the alley next to the queen after the queen's carriage left the palace gate.
The queen asked Dongming through the curtain: "Ming'er, do you want to see your grandfather too?" ”
Dongming's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, but unfortunately the queen couldn't see it.
The queen couldn't wait for Dongming's reply, stretched out her slender jade hand, and lifted the corner of the window. "Ming'er? Why don't you speak? ”
Dongming gasped: "Queen Mother, Erchen has to take a breath first." Erchen wants to go to see his grandfather with his mother, but I don't know if the queen mother can allow it? ”
The queen smiled helplessly and shook her head: "You child, what else is not allowed in this matter, visiting your grandfather is your filial piety." Come, get in the carriage and rest. ”
Dongming obviously glanced at Lian Yu, who was dozing off on the side, and his ears were slightly red: "Queen Mother, Erchen doesn't take the carriage anymore, Erchen protects the Queen Mother outside the car." ”
The queen saw through it and didn't say anything, nodded, and closed the window.
Dongming was about to hit the horse and stepped forward, following Lian Yu, when he was frightened by the snort of a horse and turned to the side.
Yu Yu tugged at the reins and followed Lian Yu. The expression on his face was the same as that of the horses under his seat, and no one should come near them.
