Chapter 33: The Murderer Who Disappeared Out of Thin Air
There was light snow outside, the weather was gloomy, Huo Yijun raised her head with an oil-paper umbrella on top of her head, and when she turned around, she saw Jiang Xie holding an umbrella for her, she nodded in thanks, but the other party was as cold as an ice cube.
"What is Lord Huo looking at so fascinating?" Jiang Xie rolled his eyes, and his cold gaze fell on her.
Huo Yijun noticed that he had changed his name to himself, but his tone was still so much like an interrogation, which made people very uncomfortable.
She walked out under his umbrella and said calmly: "I was looking at the window lattice, and an adult said that he saw Lord Shan opening the window, and the window was definitely not opened for ventilation on a cold day, so it could only be left in the window, as for what to do......"
"Your Excellency!"
At this time, after Aishu flew down from the roof and landed, he said excitedly: "As expected, shoe prints were found on the roof, and the murderer sneaked into the house from the window on the roof to kill people, but the time to do it was only one moment, only the footprints that went and the footprints that returned." ”
"I've also checked the windows, and there are indeed traces of turning in, but there are no signs of going out." Huo Yijun and Xiang Xiu corroborate each other.
Lord He stood aside, his eyes glazed: "There are only traces of sneaking in, no traces of going out, could it be that the murderer disappeared out of thin air?" ”
Jiang Xie didn't think so, and when he looked up again, he looked at Master He, and his tone was cold: "It is impossible for the murderer to disappear out of thin air, but he left in a way that we didn't expect, creating an illusion of a secret room for us, maybe the murderer was hiding among the people present at this moment, and he never left from beginning to end." ”
His eyes swept over everyone present with a chill, and the cold wind was even more bitter.
Lord He laughed dryly a few times, and several adults behind him didn't even dare to laugh, bowing their heads for fear of being suspected of him by Kiyomasaji.
"Jiang Sizheng is really good at joking, and it is a bit bold to stay under our noses and kill people without leaving." Huo Yijun's face was expressionless, and at this moment she had a new idea: "I agree with what Jiang Sizheng said, use an unexpected way to leave." ”
"For example, to leave in front of us."
The possibility she said successfully caused everyone to ponder, but Jiang Xie's eyes were blazing.
"Are you suspicious of Kochifu?" Jiang Xie asked.
Huo Yijun said firmly: "That's right, I just doubt him, after all, this person is likely to be the last person to see the deceased." ”
Jiang Xie nodded, and then looked at Lord He: "This case happened in the Hanlin Academy, and the department needs the assistance of the Hanlin officials to solve the case, Lord Huo is very good, Lord He agrees." ”
Lord He opened his mouth, but before he could make a sound, he only heard Jiang Xie say again: "Okay!" Lord He agreed without speaking, and Lord Huo was going to see the Kochi Mansion with his own division! ”
"Yes, sir." Huo Yijun answered and left with him.
Lord He looked at the two figures who had left, and finally spoke out after moving for a long time: "You guys!" ”
It's a pity that it's too late to stop it, neither the Huo family nor Qingzheng Si can afford to provoke him.
Sizheng, Jiang Xie and Huo Yijun walked into the Hanlin Courtyard, and the light snow outside first stopped, and the shops on Suzaku Long Street were opened.
Huo Yijun walked behind Jiang Xie and stepped on his footprints, looking at his back full of murderous intent, no one dared to approach, walking alone in the snow, in stark contrast to everything lively on the street, becoming incompatible.
Huo Yijun slowed down and walked with Xiang Xiu: "Lord Xiang, have you Jiang Sizheng always been so cold?" ”
In fact, Jiang Xie was not like an ice cube before, on the contrary, enthusiastically like a big fireball.
He had changed dramatically after this reunion, and she wondered why.
"Of course not, we adults are because of Shen ......"
"The county government has arrived."
When Jiang Xie stood in front and looked over, Xiang Xiu was silent when he spoke, and swallowed the person's name back.
Huo Yijun looked at Jiang Xie with a complicated look.
Xiang Xiu stepped forward directly and showed the waist card of Qingzheng Division: "Qingzheng Division handles the case, get out of the way!" ”
The officials did not dare to stop them, so they made way for these people to enter the palace.
In the courtyard, he saw a young man in a dark green robe standing on the steps to give a lecture, and at the bottom of the steps, except for the official guarding the door, the others of the government gathered in a square formation in front of him, and there were more than twenty people, each with a broom and a shovel in his hand.
"Let's go!"
The man waved his hand, and the officials walked out with their tools, but they met the people of Kiyoshoji head-on.
"Master Jiang, why are you here?" The young man hurriedly placed his tools and saluted.
Jiang Xie looked at his battle, and said angrily: "Armed fighting is forbidden in the imperial city, you won't know about the Kochi Mansion, right?" ”
