Liu Zhan seemed to understand what Kun Bai was thinking, and said, "Don't worry, Master, the apprentice ordered someone to watch, no problem." ”

Kun Bai nodded, half scolded and half boasted, "You are also in line with my heart in this regard." ”

The three of them came to the inn.

"Childe, people are behind."

The little guy who had gone to Dali Temple for help walked out of the inn, saluted the three of them, and said respectfully.

Liu Zhan nodded, and then took the lead in walking into the dilapidated inn.

He locked them up in the backyard.

In the backyard, the three assassins nested in the corner, and when they heard the movement, they didn't move, still hanging their heads, not knowing what they were thinking.

"Didn't you give them food? How do you feel sick? Qiao Qixin was a little puzzled.

The little guy hurriedly said, "The girl doesn't know, these three are all assassins, if enough food is given, the small ones may be difficult to control, so ......"

"So you didn't give you food?" Qiao Qixin answered.

"Not bad." The little guy bent down and saluted.

Qiao Qixin nodded in understanding.

"Hey, wake up." Liu Zhan kicked the three men.

The three of them raised their heads and saw that it was Liu Zhan, dragging their hungry bodies up from the ground, and then kneeling down in front of Liu Zhan.

"Great, my lord, we are all good citizens! It's all, we were all forced by the city lord of He! "The leader grabbed the ground with his head.

The other two also echoed, constantly kowtowing.

Liu Zhan looked at the three of them coldly, and said, "City Lord He has been arrested and brought to justice, and the three of you will go back to Beijing with me to be examined, if there is a lie......

"If there is a lie! We're thundering! The three of them hurriedly swore.

"It's just...... After this review...... "one of them was at a loss, but he would not say it explicitly."

Liu Zhan said coldly, "If you behave well, I will return you and reunite you with your relatives." ”

"But if you dare to talk nonsense and distort the facts......" Liu Zhan's gaze swept coldly over the faces of the three people, "Then together with City Lord He, there is a good companion on Huangquan Road!" ”

"No, no, no, absolutely not, absolutely not!" The three of them hurriedly kowtowed, "We will definitely cooperate with Childe, we will definitely cooperate!" Don't dare to say half a lie! ”

Liu Zhan nodded, and then tied up the three one by one.

He grabbed the rope and got into the same carriage with the three men.

Qiao Qixin and Kun Bai were in the same car.

Inside the carriage, Kun Bai looked at Qiao Qixin with a smile.

Qiao Qixin didn't know why, and felt that Kun Bai's expression was a little ill-intentioned.

Sure enough, Kun Bai spoke, "Xiaoyou and Liu Zhan are really tacit in cooperating this time." ”

Qiao Qixin broke out in a cold sweat behind her, and she didn't know how Kun Bai saw the "tacit understanding".

"Haha...... It's all Liu Gongzi who is astute. Qiao Qixin replied stubbornly.

Kun Bai stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Xiaoyou is modest, Dali Temple also took over a case yesterday, I don't know if Xiaoyou is interested in going with my uncompetitive apprentice?" ”

Hey, you're waiting for me here.

Qiao Qixin said in her heart.

"This ...... If Liu Gongzi is willing, I am not impossible......" Qiao Qixin said euphemistically.

She was fishing in troubled waters this time, Liu Zhan definitely didn't think she could do anything, and naturally she wouldn't agree with Kun Bai's idea.

That's right! Qiao Qixin pinned her hopes on Liu Zhan! I hope he can firmly refuse to work with him!

With a beautiful vision, the carriage of the three returned to Dali Temple.

After getting off the carriage.

"Liu Zhan!" Kun Bai shouted.

Liu Zhan, who was leading the three assassins, heard it and stopped entering Dali Temple.

"What's wrong, Master?"

"Dali Temple received a murder case yesterday, and I'm going to send you and Xiaoyou there, how about it? Do you have any comments? Kun Bai said with his hands behind his back.

Liu Zhan shrugged, "Master, you have already arranged everything, does my opinion still matter?" ”

Kun Bai nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Qiao Qixin, as if to say, "Look, I'll just say he agrees." ”

Qiao Qixin: It is not advisable to arrange distribution......

——

Dali Temple dungeon

"Tell me, who sent you to assassinate me?" Liu Zhan asked.

Qiao Qixin, who was caught for portrait on the side, kept keeping her hands and quickly tracing the faces of the three people on the paper.

"Great, my lord, it was all the City Lord He who arranged for us to do it! We didn't know you were the Shaoqing of Dali Temple at first! Assassin A was horrified.

It's a dungeon with a gloomy interior, but it's open with a small window.

The sunlight shone in through the heavy glass, but it only made the dungeon even more terrifying.

The three assassins were also tied up, and they were even more afraid, and they immediately said whatever Liu Zhan asked.

"Oh? How did Lord He arrange for you to assassinate me? Liu Zhan paused, and casually pointed to the assassin B in the middle, "You start first." ”

The assassin B shook and hurriedly said, "City Lord He showed me your portrait and told me, saying, if you kill you, I will give me ten taels of gold!" ”

Oh, I didn't expect Liu Zhan's life to be so valuable.

"And then?" Liu Zhan then asked.

"Then, then the little one was bored, and he found a place to secretly assassinate the adult, and then, the little one was caught by the adult......" Assassin B said.

I don't know why, Qiao Qixin actually felt that this guy's last sentence was a little pitiful.

Liu Zhan nodded, pointed to an Assassin A next to Assassin B, and said, "You." ”

The assassin A also shook and said, "Hui, back to the adult, the little one was also seen by the city lord He City Portrait, and then assassinated ...... in the alley."

This assassin A was more reckless, and when Liu Zhan entered the alley, he jumped out directly, and slashed at Liu Zhan with a big knife.

Then he was kicked away by Liu Zhan, and the big knife in his hand was directly inserted into the ground between Assassin A's legs impartially.

Assassin A was defeated.

"You." Liu Zhan pointed at Assassin C.

This assassin C was the most unlucky, he also used a knife to cut Liu Zhan, but when he ran to Liu Zhan and was about to cut him, he tripped over a bump on the ground.

He lay on the ground and looked at Liu Zhan, and then Assassin C was defeated.

In summary, Liu Zhan not only has strength, but also luck.

"How did Lord He let you carry out the assassination?" Liu Zhan asked again.

The three of them glanced at each other, and one of them spoke, "Lord Hui, City Lord He just gave me a portrait of my lord, saying that he would kill you, and then there was nothing else." ”

Hearing this, Liu Zhan nodded, and then looked at Qiao Qixin on the side, "How many have you drawn?" ”

Qiao Qixin didn't raise her head and handed the three pieces of paper to Liu Zhan.

Liu Zhan took it and saw that the faces of the three assassins had all been painted.

He looked at Qiao Qixin, who was still working hard, and asked curiously, "Then what are you still painting now?" ”

Qiao Qixin glanced up at Liu Zhan, and then continued to look down and paint.

Liu Zhan got up curiously and went over to take a look, and the person in the painting was actually himself.

The paintings of themselves are vivid and delicate, compared to the three portraits of the Assassins.

"What are you painting me for?" Liu Zhan said in surprise.

Qiao Qixin paused for a moment, and then said nonsense, "Uh...... You're so beautiful that you can't help but want to draw. ”

She wouldn't say that she painted Liu Zhan because she heard the ten taels of gold on a whim, just in case she needed it.

Liu Zhan was completely misunderstood.

"If you're so good at drawing...... Why don't you go next door and draw that one too? Liu Zhan proposed.

Although this sentence sounds a little yin and yang, Liu Zhan is definitely really giving advice to Qiao Qixin.

But Qiao Qixin felt that Liu Zhan was adding more workload to herself, so she hurriedly waved her hand and refused, "No, no, I won't paint." ”

As she spoke, she slapped Liu Zhan's painting, which had not yet been thinned, on the table, indicating that she really didn't paint anymore.

Liu Zhan glanced at himself on the painting and felt a little pity.

The three Assassins looked at them in horror, wondering why the topic had suddenly diverted.

Liu Zhan asked them a few more words, then got up and said, "Come on, take care of them." ”

After that, he faced Georges and said, "Let's go, let's go together." ”

Qiao Qixin nodded, and then left the dungeon with her own drawing paper and ink pen after Liu Zhan.

"What about the city lord? Why didn't you see him? Qiao Qixin was curious.

"Lord He was sent to the Criminal Department, and that place was the private dungeon of Dali Temple just now." Liu Zhan explained.

"Huh? Why did you escort Lord He to the Criminal Department? Wouldn't that only be interrogated by the people of the Criminal Department? Qiao Qixin wondered.

Liu Zhan took the portraits of the assassins from Qiao Qixin's arms and explained, "The city lord He is of a bad nature, and the criminal department is strict, so it is not easy for him to escape if he is placed there. ”

"As for interrogation or something, if you are interested, I will take you to the Criminal Department to interrogate him." Liu Zhan said.

Qiao Qixin thought for a while and said, "Forget it, I still won't mix." ”

"Yo, you two just came down from below?" Uncle Wang, who was holding a meat skewer in his hand, appeared out of nowhere.

He took a bite of the bubbling meat skewer and said, "Dali Siqing asked me to tell you that he has put the information on the new case to Liu Zhan, let you go over and take a look twice, and leave tomorrow." ”

Qiao Qixin was surprised, "So early? ”

Uncle Wang nodded, "This case seems to be quite fierce and weird, you two be careful." ”

Qiao Qixin and Liu Zhan glanced at each other.

——

"Is this what Uncle Wang said?"

In the room, Qiao Qixin picked up the bamboo slip on the table and said.

Liu Zhan nodded, "This bamboo slip wasn't there when I left." ”

The bamboo slips are very heavy and heavy to hold in your hand.

"Then I opened it?" Qiao Qixin looked at Liu Zhan, and her fingers frantically tested the opening of the bamboo slip.

Liu Zhan nodded, "You can go." ”

Qiao Qixin opened the bamboo slip and spread it out on the table.

The long bamboo slips spread a long strip on the table, densely packed with words, and just looking at Qiao Qixin made me feel a headache.

"The matter of Lin'an City." Liu Zhan looked at Zhu Jian and said.

Qiao Qixin also stepped forward to take a look.

Lin'an City has had frequent accidents recently, first without a drop of rain for several months, and then poultry have repeatedly died inexplicably.

The people were miserable.

After the government's disaster relief food is distributed, it will become moldy and rotten overnight, and even turning into water is not uncommon.

At the same time, a plague broke out among the people, killing and wounding countless people for a while......
