The tiger has been missing for a few days.

Judging from the scale of Jianye City, it is really not a difficult thing to make a person disappear without knowing it, even if the tiger holds an important position in the school office, and now that he is missing, it is like a small fish that has jumped into the river, and there is no way to find it.

But Qin Ke knew that as a spy of the school government, the tiger had no reason to hide by himself, even if he encountered danger, he would at least leave some clues for his companions to know, so what happened to him, so that the school government secretly used so many people to find out why?

Could it be that he has tracked down something terrible, and it is inconvenient to show up?

Or maybe he touched something he shouldn't have touched at all, and he had already been killed......

That's why Zhou Gongjin said "dig it out", which is to say, you have to see people in life, and you have to see corpses in death.

However, Jianye is so big, Sun Tong will inevitably have remnants in the city, and it is not surprising that he will retaliate against the tiger, and the school government has many enemies in Jingwu, and the tiger as a detective captain has solved many big cases......

Qin Ke, who had left the school office, walked aimlessly on the street, slowly clenching his fists.

After he knew Zhuge Wanling's true identity, it seemed that the whole person had lost some kind of support all of a sudden, and the ambition that he originally wanted to set up in order to find his master also disappeared.

The artifact is no longer important, and this huge Jing Wu is still not his destination, obviously the current "master" will not be able to follow him back to Daoxiang Village, so is there still a need for him to stay in Jing Wu?

Before entering the school office, he had actually made a draft, and wanted to open his mouth to submit his resignation to Zhou Gongjin, so he left with Cai Yan, the sky is high and the sea is wide, and there is always a place for two people in this world, maybe she can take her to the northern grassland that she has been longing for, drink and talk with her eldest brother Cao Pei, and then go north to the Great Wall, maybe she can go back to General Mulan......

But the tiger's disappearance stopped him from thinking about it.

His relationship with the tiger has not lasted long, but there is also a bit of friendship, although the tiger usually has no expression, but the heart is hot, now his friends are in trouble, how can he stand by and watch, or even walk away?

After thinking about this, he no longer hesitated, quickened his pace to go home, and called Cai Yan to go to the tiger's residence together, ready to check from there, thinking that he could gain something.

"No matter how you look at it, this doesn't look like the home of a sixth-grade detective. When she walked into the remote courtyard, Cai Yan only felt a sense of old air rushing to her face, and after looking around, she made a simple and straightforward evaluation.

Indeed, this small courtyard is quite spacious, but whether it is from the broken walls, the old tiles, or the mothed pillars under the eaves, it can be seen that the courtyard has been built for some years.

But although the house is old, the yard is full of life, a dozen children in old clothes, are running around playing a game of catching ghosts, let out a burst of laughter, hens cooing in the corner of the wall to feed, tied to the side is a half-haired, old and lazy old dog, only knows how to bask in the sun, whether there is a living person approaching.

Qin Ke nodded and said: "The officials of the school administration already have a bedroom in the school mansion, and the tiger almost only sleeps there, this courtyard is said to have been bought by him for fifty taels of silver for an errand at one time, and he has basically not done any repairs, so it is naturally dilapidated." ”

Speaking of which, several children happened to run past Cai Yan, looking up and down with a little curious gaze, and Cai Yan was already childish, so he naturally got along well with these children, and quickly got along, acting as the "hen" who protected the chickens, resisting the attack of the little fat eagle in front of him.

After playing for a while, Qin Ke looked at those children and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It is said that the tiger never saves his monthly money every month, one is for a lonely old man of the Jingchu Gang to live, and the other is to raise these children. ”

"That guy has a really bad temper, but he's a good guy. Cai Yan grinned.

Needless to say, Cai Yan can also see that these children are orphans, and if you guess further, maybe they are the orphans left behind after the war between Jing Wu and Tang State.

Although the Jingwu court did not issue bereavement pensions, and also set up many wards to take care of these children, the so-called bereavement pensions are limited after all.

Tiger knows this, so he specially invited Mr. Teacher to teach these children to read, although the price is expensive, but over time, presumably the children can have a better life when they grow up.

The door was opened by a middle-aged woman, not tall and a little bloated, facing two strangers for a while, with a cramped look on her face.

However, after hearing Qin Ke say that he was a colleague of the school office, he immediately smiled, invited the two into the room, and warmly beckoned the two to sit down while pouring tea.

"This is the first time I've met Tiger's colleague, and he has never mentioned anything about the school in the past, and I never dared to ask...... His room is upstairs, and he has been coming back a few days ago, but he has been less recently, so he is busy again? and he is really embarrassed to bother the two of them to come and pick up things himself. ”

"Auntie, you also know that he is such a person, once he has an errand, he forgets everything, and don't blame him for anything. Qin Ke responded with a smile on his face, and didn't say much about the tiger.

Now the life and death of the tiger is not clear, and if he really says it, he is worried that this distant aunt will faint on the spot.

Just as he was laughing, Qin Ke suddenly noticed that Cai Yan's hand hidden under the table was tightly holding the corner of his clothes, and he lowered his eyes slightly, finding that her fingers were pointing upwards, as if hinting at something.

Qin Ke pretended to stretch his waist, and the moment he raised his head, through some light projected from outside the door, he found that some fine dust was falling from the ceiling, light and silent.

But for Qin Ke, the moment the Wind Vision Technique unfolded, he had already heard some subtle sounds, like moving something, and like turning something, with the collision of some bamboo slips, and the sound of moving footsteps.

These voices have been suppressed to the extreme, but it is precisely because of this that the unusualness of that person is exposed.

Qin Ke narrowed his eyes, but put the laughter louder, and at the same time attached his ear Cai Yan asked her to talk to the woman first, and then he walked in the direction of the stairs.

The stairs are old and no longer very strong, and they will make a creaking sound when they step on them, but Qin Ke's light steps, coupled with the precise control of qi and blood, still ensure that he did not make the slightest sound, and walked upstairs like a shadow.

Up to the last few steps.

Qin Ke suddenly stopped, as if he was suddenly tired, and completely lost the motivation to move forward in place.

This is a very unusual behavior.

But Qin Ke knew that if he really stepped out of that step at this moment, I was afraid that he would not know what kind of grand ceremony would be to greet him.

This man was so keen, he sensed his arrival first, and hid in the corner of the staircase, waiting for the opportunity to make a move!

Silently, Qin Ke had already grasped the hilt of the Bodhisattva Sword with one hand, and in the days since he left the Bodhisattva Sword, he wanted to hold this sword again all the time, because this sword brought him infinite confidence and strength.

That man's patience was actually very good.

Qin Ke's eyes were half-closed, there was no movement, the two of them seemed to be petrified, and Cai Yan and the woman downstairs were talking and laughing, and the passage of time seemed to be holding their breath.

I don't know how long it took, a few beads of sweat oozed from Qin Ke's forehead, and he heard a short and sharp friction sound in the wind.

It was the sound of a blade unsheathed!

Qin Ke's pupils shrank, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and at the same time, the Bodhisattva Sword went upriver in a faster way, like a fish jumping up in a river, flashing with sparkling white light, still going upriver in the face of the river's washing!

With a "ding" sound, the blades and blades slammed together like a pair of lovers who were lingering in death, and in a tooth-aching friction sound, Qin Ke and the person looked at each other, and the weapons intersected and burst out dazzling sparks.

Qin Ke let out a roar instead, his legs stomped, the stairs under his feet cracked, and his figure also used this force to directly crash into the darkness on the second floor!

The first time the two fought, Cai Yan had already pulled the woman with a shocked face to squat down, the woman didn't know what was going on at all, she only saw the sharp mangs lit up from time to time on the broken stairs, and suddenly wanted to scream in fear.

However, Cai Yan's slender hand accurately covered her mouth, her eyes were full of determination, and she lowered her voice and said, "Don't scream!"
