The night is quiet, and the candle shadow is red.

The firelight shook on Wuka's face, and the face of the lost soul was dull, and the bottom of his eyes was dark and blue, and his gaze was divergent.

Yun Qi's words fell, and he moved his head slowly, as if he still hadn't reacted.

"Didn't you come to report the crime?" Yunqi said nonchalantly.

Uka lowered his eyes, clenched his fists with both hands, so that a green tendon popped out of his forehead, and after hesitating repeatedly, he suddenly raised his head sharply and said eagerly: "Someone wants to kill me." ”

Yun Qi put his index finger on his head and nodded nonchalantly: "Well, then what?" ”

Wuka bit his lip and said with a sense of fear: "I know, it was the murderer who wanted to kill me, not Brother Su, he came to kill me, I know." ”

Yunqi and Lu Anran exchanged a look - they spoke upside down, aren't they scared stupid?

Lu Anran looked at Wuka, "Who is the murderer?" ”

"Kill the murderer of the Pleiades!" Wuka stood up suddenly, and his voice also rose, "Kill me, no one will testify to Xu Shaokai, he can get away with it, and no one can help him." ”

"Did you see the murderer?"

Wuka's fingertips squeezed the palm of his hand hard, his finger bones turned white and blue, and his eyes were as firm as he had never been, "He is more than seven feet tall, very strong, his hands have brute strength, and he can easily subdue me with one hand, if it weren't for Brother Su's inadvertent inadverence, it would be easy for him to kill me." ”

"What about the others? What else to see? ”

"It was too dark to see his appearance, but I felt his sleeve, silk, linen and cotton, and other ......," Uka shook his head in embarrassment, "I was so scared that I couldn't notice more." ”

Yunqi put down his hand, sat up and took the hot tea in his hand, and said meaningfully: "It's okay, you've seen enough." ”

Wuka glanced at Yun Qi timidly, "Yun Shizi, this is ...... Is it really possible? ”

Yunqi took a sip of tea, and blinked his peach blossom eyes for some reason, what does that mean, do you have other questions?

"Oh, yes." Yunqi beckoned, "Su Ji, you heard it, take him down and ask him in detail, draw a portrait of the murderer, and leave this matter to you." ”

Before Uka was taken down, he stopped talking, "I'm afraid the murderer will come looking for me." ”

Yun Qi said: "Isn't that better, just get the stolen goods." ”

Uka wanted to cry without tears.

Su Ji was more reliable than Yunqi, and promised to send someone to secretly protect him for a few days until the case was closed.

After Uka left, Yunqi snapped his fingers, and a man walked in from outside the door and saluted Yunqi with a fist.

Lu Anran was not surprised to see that Yun Qi had gestured behind his back, but he inevitably glanced at the yacha wearing the uniform of the criminal officer, and wondered in his heart that there were still people listening to Yun Qi's words.

Yun Qi said succinctly: "My own people." ”

Lu Anran suddenly understood that this was the person Yunqi brought from Shengle County, and it was estimated that he had used some methods to justifiably enter the Criminal Division. But she had never thought carefully about why Yunqi was so frank in front of her.

"You've already sent someone to spy on Uka?"

Yunqi pushed the foam with the tea lid, and his movements were elegant, "This kid is timid and cowardly, but he dares to quietly appear at the scene of the murder in the first seven of the Yin Pleiades, either there is a ghost or a ghost." ”

Lu Anran nodded: "There is indeed a contradiction, he is very scared and panicked, but when he tells some things, he is too organized, just like ......"

Yun Qi hooked his lips and smiled: "Specially prepared?" ”

"Yes, that's how it feels."

Yunqi blew the hot tea and chuckled: "Whether there is a ghost in your heart or not, sooner or later your feet will be exposed." After drinking the tea, he covered the teacup, threw it on the table, looked up and said, "Say, what's going on?" ”

His subordinates listened to the back and forth conversation between Yunqi and Lu Anran, and his heart was shocked, he followed Yunqi for a long time, knowing that his family was far from being as ordinary people saw, let alone seeing him so honest with anyone.

No matter how much turmoil he felt in his heart, he said without a shock on his face: "His subordinates have followed Wuka for a few days, and he only walks around in Jixia Palace, without any abnormality, except for going down the mountain today, he was suddenly assassinated halfway." ”

"The subordinates wanted to stop it, but who knew that Su Gongzi broke out, and Wuka bumped into the murderer again, seeing that the two were not in danger, the subordinates did not show up."

Yun Qi smiled at the corner of his mouth, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes, and said in a sparse tone that Lu Anran rarely saw: "Can the perpetrator be caught?" ”

The head of the subordinate hung lower: "At that time, Wuka suddenly fainted and fell to the ground, Su Gongzi shouted that someone was killed, and when his subordinates turned back, the person was gone." ”

Yunqi retracted the smile at the corner of his mouth, his eyes were not sharp, but there was an indescribable noble indifference.

His subordinates knelt on one knee, didn't make excuses for themselves, and said solemnly: "My subordinates are derelict in their duties and voluntarily receive punishments." ”

Yunqi glanced at it without being salty, "Remember, go ahead." ”

This is the meaning of letting him continue to stare at Uka and receive the punishment later, and his subordinates are ordered to retreat.

Turning his head, looking at Lu Anran's gaze, Yun Qi pulled the corners of his mouth, and naturally revealed the ruffian spirit of the past, "What's the matter, the charm of this son is too great, I am stunned?" ”

Many of Yunqi's faces Lu Anran is familiar with, including wanton, playful and ridiculous, he shows the world the image of a prodigal son who plays the world, and often shows his freedom and impropriety in front of her, but she almost forgot that Yunqi met for the first time.

Ruthless, ruthless, and sharp.

In his hand, it was no longer the Fengyue Jade Bone Fan, but a sharp weapon to seal his throat with a sword.

"Look at your stupidity." Yun Qi chuckled and knocked on Lu Anran's head with a jade bone fan, and seeing that she still maintained her original appearance, he actually twisted a piece of pastry on the table and handed it to her mouth, and said coakingly: "After eating my brother's dessert, I will listen to my brother in the future." ”

Lu Anran raised his hand and brushed it away, his eyes were half-drooping, and the emotions in his heart were extremely complicated for a while.

Yunqi saw something unusual and was about to ask, Guanyue came back.

"Shizi, the person has been caught, his name is Wang Er, he is a hard-working person, and he usually picks up scattered work."

"According to Wang Er, some time ago, a strange person began to find him, gave him five copper plates every day, and didn't want him to do anything else, so he pushed people with wooden carts to the gate of Jingzhao Mansion early in the morning, waited for a stick of incense and then pushed it away."

"As for where he is from and where he lives, Wang Er doesn't know anything."

Lu Anran asked, "I don't know where he lives, where does he pick people up?" ”

Guanyue is very reliable, obviously has understood a circle, and immediately said: "He waited in advance at the entrance of the alley next to a rice shop on Suzaku Street, and when the time came, Wang Er would pick it up." I've already checked that place, and the lower nine streams gather in the place, and it's more chaotic. ”

Any place has magnificence, bright moon and clear breeze, but also has its own black smoke miasma, sludge and muddy water, and the royal capital city is no exception.

To the northwest of Suzaku Street is such a place, where brothels, gambling houses, martial arts halls, and theaters are all mixed in, and the lowest people are begging for a living in it, and the population is chaotic, and they only earn food and clothing every day, and who cares about other people's affairs.

But no matter how chaotic it is, without an identity guide, it will not be able to gain a foothold in the royal capital.

"What about the previous stolen ID tag? Will you be able to find some clues? ”

Lu Anran asked, but he didn't expect Guanyue to even think of this in advance, and replied: "There are indeed people who have lived there under these two names, but they are all short-term rentals, and the beds have been changed, and nothing has been left." ”

The so-called short-term rental, a room with a large kang and more than 20 bedding, each bed represents a bed, and it is better to rent it alone to the poor who cannot afford to rent a house, than to stay on the street.

Guanyue took out a roster from his chest and opened it to see that it was densely filled with names.

"Wang Shouren is written here, and that place, Hongda."

The booklet of different skins, on the cover is respectively recorded Tongxiang Lane Erwulu and Anle Fang Hufu.

Guanyue said: "One is in the west of the city, and the other is in the north of the city." ”

Lu Anran closed the booklet, "He is very careful. ”

Guanyue took it and said helplessly: "It's a pity that it's useless to check around." ”

Yun Qi hooked his lips: "Not really, someone once told me that people who have lived in this world will always leave a little clue, unless he turns to ashes." ”

Lu Anran was distracted and looked up at Yunqi.

This is what she said to Yunqi in Mondu.

Guanyue didn't notice the strange atmosphere between the two, and said, "I'll go and check it out again." ”

It was late at night when I came out of the Criminal Division, and the spring warmed up slightly, at least the cold wind was no longer raging in the royal capital.

Yun Qi unfolded the jade bone fan and shook it casually twice, looking to the side, "I've been thinking about it since just now, what are you thinking?" ”

Lu Anran looked up at the starry sky for a moment, his dark eyes stared at Yunqi, his eyes were clear, with a little confusion, "I can't see through this case, I can't understand the world, and I can't understand you." ”

Yunqi's eyelids fell halfway, and when he looked at people from top to bottom, there was a kind of momentum, but the tail of the peach blossom eyes was raised, and with natural affection, the corners of his mouth slowly raised a touch of arc, and said: "The turbid world is floating, people's hearts are changeable, the joys and sorrows of the world are never connected, how can I understand, what if I can't understand?" ”

Then, he sighed lowly, as if to say to himself: "I will not harm you after all." ”

Lu Anran's heart was like a string plucking, the whole person trembled slightly, and his fingers slowly curled up.

—

This night, Lu Anran didn't sleep very well, woke up two or three times in his sleep, and got up at dawn, a little dizzy.

Chunmiao put down the basin of water and saw that Lu Anran's face was not good, "Miss, didn't you get cold from the wind last night." ”

Lu Anran rubbed her head, not getting sick often made her feel uncomfortable, she took a piece of paper from the table and wrote down a prescription, "You go to the medicine hall to grab some medicine and come back, you should be fine after a day." ”

Chunmiao folded it and stuffed it into her purse, and after making breakfast, she said: "Miss will go after eating the slave maid, the weather in the south is really unbearable, it will be cool for a while and warm for a while, and it will be as unpredictable as a three- or four-year-old child." ”

According to the past, Lu Anran would listen to Chunmiao's nagging for a while, the southern weather was humid, hot and humid, and then reminisce about where they were in Mengdu, but today she had a headache, and she really didn't have much patience, and just as she was about to open her mouth to tell Chunmiao to shut up, Chunmiao herself stopped.

If you don't speak, forget it, but you still want to talk about it and peek at Lu Anran from time to time.

After a few times, Lu Anran pressed his forehead with two fingers, and said weakly: "What do you want to say?" ”

Chunmiao got the order, immediately threw the rag to the side, pursed her mouth, and said angrily: "I want the slave to say, the old lady is eccentric in the second room, obviously there is nothing wrong with the second miss, seeing that the young lady is coming to the royal capital, I have to stuff the second lady over." ”

Lu Anran was stunned, but he didn't expect this, and said, "Lu Jianyu is coming to the royal capital?" ”
