Chapter 14 Mission Accomplished
Helianxu sorted through the items left behind by the innkeeper and found a list. Although the names of the people on it are not known, it is vaguely certain that there are high-ranking officials and nobles among them.
And this list will become a confession, and the murder of the boss may also have something to do with this list.
The chain of evidence was too easy to form, but Ji Lianchu still felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
The afternoon sun was shining, and Ji Lianchu squinted when he looked up at the sky and felt very trance.
Connecting Wang Xi's rhetoric and the evidence in the iron box, there is quite a feeling that you are singing and I am on the stage, if you link everything together, it is not difficult to find - the person hiding in the shadows was secretly discovered, so he killed and destroyed the body, this person is the shopkeeper of the Fuyun Inn who knows the inside story of the truth, but the world is unpredictable in the process of being discovered by Wang Xi who suddenly broke in.
The evidence was then hastily destroyed. But the agency was too clever to know that the shopkeeper still had a back hand, and wrote down what he had experienced, and kept it in an iron box along with the evidence.
But what about the rhetoric of the shopkeeper Erwang? What's going on? His fears and fears were not disguised.
Are there really ghosts in this world? Outrageous, there are only two possibilities, or someone is deliberately pretending to be a ghost.
Either that, he's lying!
Ji Lianchu turned around and inadvertently saw Helian Xu, who was carefully studying the few stacks of paper left by the shopkeeper.
"What? Is there something wrong with it? β
Helian Xu pondered for a long time, "There are words in the words, but this matter is very important, and I dare not say it easily." β
"I'll see."
Helianxu tapped his finger with the weighted word to show her.
Ji Lianchu took the stack of papers, and tacitly found that there were a few words on each piece of paper, which were connected into a sentence in order.
The imperial examination was fraudulent, and grievances were waived.
Ji Lianchu had an idea, opened the compartment in the box, and saw a few pieces of paper quietly placed, with distinctive white paper and red letters, which were complaints.
"Wang Xiaoer, don't cry, your boss is fine, he's fine! It's just that it's not convenient to meet customers now. Ji Lianchu sneered, the paper in the box was in shape, so someone deliberately lured the idle king over! This is the exposure of the king's whereabouts, please go around in circles and ask the idle king to call the shots!
The complaint said that a scholar's scientific examination results were replaced by powerful people, and his fiancΓ©e Ning Caiwei would rather be punished with a cane than seek justice for him, but unfortunately she was also imprisoned in a prison cell.
Ning Caiwei?! Yang Zhi on the side exclaimed in surprise when he saw the name on the form, "Little junior sister! β
When Wang Xianyan heard this, his inquiring eyes fell on her, and he did not say much.
"So the owner of the Floating Cloud Inn must know something!" Yang Zhi muttered, "Only the little junior sister did this, and she is the one with the same name and surname!" Little junior sister, I will definitely save you......"
After that, Yang Zhi held the sword in his hand and was about to leave, but was stopped by Ji Lianchu.
"Wait, I think I know where the owner of the Floating Cloud Inn is."
"Where?" Yang Zhi looked at Ji Lianchu for help.
An oolong false alarm, it's just why Wang Xi showed a panicked appearance of encountering evil spirits and ghosts, and even hinted that everyone found this iron box that contained secrets.
There is no other reason, either he knows the inside story, or he is the owner of the Floating Cloud Inn.
At the beginning, the information column showed that Wang Xi was a victim, so Ji Lianchu was preconceived and was easily guided not to think about this aspect, but now that he calms down, it is not difficult to find that Wang Xi is far from being as simple as he imagined.
Ji Lianchu: "Then I have to ask this shopkeeper, what role do you play in this deliberately set game?"
Helian Xu's sharp gaze fell on Wang Xi, and Wang Xi instantly became the focus: "Could it be that you deliberately approached this king?"
Hearing this, Wang Xianyan knelt down directly, "The little one is wrong, and the little one is also instructed by others." Yesterday...... Yesterday, a man wearing a hat came to me to ask about my boss, and finally threatened me to act in this play, and the little one didn't want to lose his life, so he agreed. β
Helianxu: "Who's coming?"
"Scholar, he wants to use this way to attract the attention of the prince and avenge his grievances." Ji Lianchu blurted out, according to the routine of writing the script, the chivalrous girl was chased by the enemy and killed by the scholar to protect her, and the scholar's imperial examination results were replaced by the powerful, and the chivalrous girl would rather be punished with a cane than avenge his grievances, and the love that went both ways went deep from the beginning.
Wang Xi nodded hurriedly, "Although he is well disguised, I can smell the scent of ink on him...... Wait, Lord Wang? The small ones don't know Mount Tai with eyes, don't blame the prince. There are a lot of them, so let's spare the small one! β
Wang Xi was so panicked that the man didn't say who he was going to deceive! If this encounters hard stubble, wouldn't the prince be guilty of a crime of bullying the king?
Yarn! He is really Zhu Bajie is not a person inside and outside the mirror, no matter what he does.
Helianxu: "Then go to Shuntianfu."
The idle king said that he was very helpless, why did the life of freedom and dissipation suddenly disappear forever? But where the responsibility lies, as a prince, you can't sit idly by when you encounter this matter.
In this case, the only way to do this is to go to the local government to see what the situation is and whether the content of the complaint is true.
After all, the protagonist of the form is still in prison, and it will be known if it is true or false.
Also, he was very curious about the scholar. In the midst of strategizing, he won thousands of miles away, and even he was in his calculations.
Yang Zhi was overjoyed, "I'll go too!" β
In this way, you can meet the little sister! I've been looking for no news for a long time, and now I won't let go of any possibility.
Wang Xi silently withdrew and said goodbye. To be exact, he didn't know how to deal with all this, and the bits and pieces of getting along with the boss came to his mind.
How could he be an accomplice in the executioner of the disappearance? Is Da Liu, the son of the grandmother who disappeared next door, also a member of the tragic murder? So how should he face Grandma Liu next door?
The more he thought about it, the more chaotic he became, and Wang Xi walked aimlessly.
[Countdown to the mission - a quarter of an hour]
Ji Lianchu originally wanted to go to Shuntianfu to see the excitement, but he was dispelled by the information bar displayed in front of him.
The mission is not over, so Wang Xi's life is still in danger!
Ji Lianchu took a deep breath, "Lord Wang, I suddenly remembered that there was something else to do, so I retired first." β
Helian Xu just wanted to keep him, but the person was already in a hurry and turned to leave.
Originally, I wanted her to spend a while with her, but the future was long.
Helianxu withdrew his hand in frustration.
Huo Dao found the carriage, "Lord Wang, everything is ready." β
"Hmm." Helian Xu had a serious face and a complicated heart.
The case of fraud in the imperial examination is very wide-ranging, and if it is confirmed, then he is bound to enter the palace, and he is bound to enter the palace to meet the annoying old woman.
It seems that this period of time is not idle.
King Xian and his entourage suddenly visited Shuntian Mansion, which caught Fu Yin off guard, and quickly put on his clothes and went straight to the lobby......
The flowers bloomed two and each showed a branch, at that time, Ji Lianchu followed Wang Xi unhurriedly, and after the Fuyun Inn closed, he turned off the lights and closed the door in one go home.
And the information bar above his head showed that the countdown was flowing minute by minute, and Ji Lian's original heart was mentioned in his throat, afraid of something, and in a blink of an eye, Wang Shi's voice suddenly shouted for help.
But I caught up, but I didn't see anyone.
When I found someone again, it was in a small alley.
There are several masked killers around the entrance of the alley.
One of the men, holding a bright knife in their hands, beckoned Wang Shi to approach.
Wang Xi didn't dare to slack off, ran to them in small steps, lowered his head, and said respectfully: "A few big brothers, if you have something to say, do you need help with anything?" β
His honest appearance made the group relax their vigilance, they looked at each other, and finally the leader commanded Wang Xi: "Say, did Boss Fuyun give you something?" If you know each other, you can hand it over and spare your life, otherwise you know......" The knife shook in front of Wang Shi, and the answer was self-evident.
Wang Xi's voice trembled, and the two trembled, almost wanting to go first.
But there was no such opportunity at all.
The person who took the lead directly dragged him out from the back: "Warning you not to pretend to be garlic, if you know each other, take it out quickly, and give you three seconds to think about it!" β
Three seconds?
He now only hopes that he can get out of danger as soon as possible.
Wang Shi shouted while struggling, "Big brother, please, you can spare me, I really don't lose anything!" β
Before Wang Xi's words landed, the man had already raised his hand and slapped him hard: "Don't talk nonsense here!" If you don't say anything, I'll cut out your tongue. β
The man's hand was extremely strong, and this slap made Wang Xi's eyes glow, his teeth almost fell out, and the corners of his mouth immediately oozed blood.
Wang grinned in pain, he knew that if he didn't confess today, the end would definitely be miserable.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Ji Lianchu was in a hurry, "The things you want are here!" β
She suddenly pulled out a piece of paper, tore it into pieces three times, divided it by two, and threw it hard, and the shredded paper crossed the parabola perfectly in the air.
As soon as everyone saw something flying out, they rushed to grab it.
Seeing this, the king took the opportunity to push the men away violently, and ran to the door.
Ji Lianchu chased after him, and the two ran forward side by side, until they ran to a place where no one was there before stopping.
Wang Xi took a big breath of fresh air, and Ji Lianchu panted and said, "You kid reacts fast enough!" β
Wang Xi wiped his sweat, "That must be dropped, otherwise my life will be gone in a while!" β
"Thank you for covering me just now! The little one thanked me here, thank you for the rescue. β
Ji Lianchu smiled and said, "It's just a gesture, it's not enough to worry about." β
Seeing that the countdown on the information bar stopped, Ji Lianchu breathed a sigh of relief.
But there was no prompt for the completion of the task, and I thought it was because the system was slow to respond, but it didn't seem to be successful.
Ji Lianchu's smile froze.
What's going on?
Ji Lian's heart sank.
"How so? How can there be no quest completion prompts! This...... This is not scientific! β
