On the other side, Qin Ke, who had just finished eating porridge and meat stuffed buns, was talking to Gongsun Li in a whisper, while Cai Yan on the side was playing with Xiao Hei, who was a little reluctant but still made all kinds of cute actions under the temptation of food, and occasionally interjected a few words.

"I'd love to help you, but for now, I'm afraid the clues you gave won't be enough to save your helper. Qin Ke said to Gongsun Li, "In addition to the words 'sister and brother', have you heard anything else?"

Gongsun Li frowned, clenched the iron umbrella on his lap with both hands, thought for a long time, and finally shook his head and said: "I don't understand the barbarian language, and the group of barbarians who handed over the goods to us are basically explaining the matter to the deputy gang leader Xue Yang, I don't know any specific details, I can only hear them say "sister and brother" several times in Middle-earth." But I think that since the barbarians have made this word separate, not only repeating it several times, but even with a little respect in their words, at least the word must have some meaning. ”

Qin Ke nodded, but he was still confused, so he could only bow his head and muttered twice: "Sister and brother, ......"

Is this talking about people? a pair of siblings? No...... Since they are respectful, if there are two sisters and brothers, it should not be said that way. The barbarians do not understand the language of Middle-earth, and they naturally speak with a bad accent, and even this word is not a brother or sister. Mustard, connective, connective, borrowed......

For a while, Qin Ke felt that his head was as big as a fight, and he turned his head to look at Cai Yan and said, "What do you think?"

Cai Yan was putting a little bit of meat in his hand into Xiao Hei's mouth, and then blinked his eyes and said, "Do you think I'm an immortal, just rely on the two words that I can't even figure out who is behind this scene, right?"

"Yes. "Qin Ke is no exception to this, if Cai Yan can really catch a clue based on this alone, then he is not a mortal, but an immortal.

And Gongsun Li lowered his head, and said with some shame: "I'm sorry, I know that my clue can't be counted as a clue, so I don't dare to go to the school office, I only dare to come to you." ”

However, Cai Yan still gave some suggestions: "As far as I am concerned, the word 'sister and brother' is still secondary, since I know that it is a group of barbarians who handed over the goods to the Shuangsha Gang, then check how many barbarian caravans entered the city in those days, and how many of them have been to the places under the jurisdiction of the Shuangsha Gang, and then specifically study some of the things that may be strange." After all, Miss Gongsun ......"

"Just call me Ah Li. ”

"Well, Miss Li. Cai Yan nodded and said, "Anyway, Miss Ah Li, you have seen those barbarians before, if you are in front of you, you can always recognize who and which ones have appeared on that day, and you may be able to find something along this line." ”

The more Gongsun Li listened, the more he felt that this matter was feasible, and he became excited for a while: "Miss Cai is really powerful, if this is the case, maybe she can really save the helper......"

But Cai Yan had to pour a basin of cold water first: "Don't be too happy too early, just build a big city like Yecheng, it is a common thing to have barbarian caravans coming and going, although it is easier to distinguish compared to ordinary caravans, but according to what you said, it has been nearly half a month since this matter, who knows if those barbarians are still in the city? You must know that once they are out of the city, it will be difficult to chase them back even if they are chased by officials." And even if they are still in the city, it is common for them to slip through the net under layers of screening, after all, this method is too complicated to catch all the barbarians and let you test. ”

What she said was the truth, but Gongsun Li was now like grasping a life-saving straw, and could only struggle to survive, for a while she bit her lip, suddenly stood up, and saluted Qin Ke and Cai Yan respectfully: "No matter what, please help me." The old gang leader treated me very well, and I couldn't watch him be beheaded like this. ”

Qin Ke quickly helped Gongsun Li to get up, and said sincerely: "Don't do this first, we will definitely help with the matter, for now, Gang Master Xue should not go to the execution ground in a short time, let's follow the line to check first, and then notify you if there is a result." ”

Gongsun Li's eyes were slightly red, and he nodded: "Thank you, Childe." ”

When Gongsun left, Qin Ke looked at Cai Yan and whispered, "What did you just pull the corner of my clothes for, is it inconvenient to say anything?"

"Are you really going to help her?" Cai Yan asked.

"What's wrong?"

Cai Yan shook his head and said, "As far as I think now, it is difficult for the Xue family to rule out suspicion, so I doubt that you will help her in the end." Don't ask why, didn't you hear her say that Xue Yang, the deputy gang leader, was responsible for this matter? Xue Yang is Xue Gong's younger brother, and he is now on the run, and it is very likely that he is absconding in fear of crime. And if this is the case, even if it is proved that Xue Gong is not involved in this matter in the end, the Xue family will still be buried for Xue Yang because of the joint sitting. ”

After all, Jing Wu's law is in front, and the Xue family's private collection of armor has far exceeded the number of capital crimes, unless the Xue family is innocent, otherwise as long as anyone has anything to do with it, in the end, whether it is Dali Temple or the school office, the entire Xue family will be executed.

Qin Ke thought of this joint, and his face was a little ugly for a while, but he still had kindness in his heart, and finally nodded heavily: "I always want to investigate this case, if the result can be as Ah Li girl wants, it will be the best, but if not...... At least I did my best, so is it true that the charge of sitting in a row has not been turned around?"

"Yes, as long as the Xue family's title is high enough, such as a meritorious person in the court, he can naturally cut the title to avoid some of the sins. But do you think the Xue family has this thing?" Cai Yan rolled his eyes.

Of course, she was still satisfied with Qin Ke's answer, so in the end, she showed a bright smile again, and the two little tiger teeth looked particularly cute: "But when I heard you say this, I am much more relieved, I am afraid that you will have another attack of rotten human nature, and I always want to help others get rid of crimes." ”

"I'm not ...... before," Qin Ke said a little embarrassed.

"In short, now you can use both sides, on the one hand, to find Xue Yang's traces, catch him, maybe a lot of things will come to light, and on the other hand, to find out what the origin of that group of barbarian merchants is, and which one they are related to, after all, armor is to be used in Jianye City, whether it is the Canghai Tang Kingdom, it is impossible to attack Jianye in a short period of time, so it is more likely to be civil strife, and it is unlikely to be a foreign enemy. ”

In fact, Cai Yan and Gao Yishui are probably two completely different people, although both of them seem to be very nonsense, but Gao Yishui was born in the rivers and lakes, and he has insight into people's hearts, so he can naturally maneuver around them and play with ease.

And Cai Yan was born in a family, familiar with the scriptures, calm and broad-minded, and can often see the things of the temple clearly, and peel off the cocoon from it, and find a thread, but in the past, it was more Gao Yishui who led the planning, so Cai Yan was not too brilliant.

But today, after listening to Cai Yan's words, Qin Ke was also full of emotion for a while, thinking that he really didn't know what good things he had done in his previous life, and he could actually have two "strategists" to give advice to him alone.

And even more fortunately, now this little strategist is still by his side.

So he took Cai Yan's soft hand and grinned: "Then let's go, let's go to the school office to look at the case file first." ”
