Section 32 The Orders of the Ruler and the Stealing of Books
Ji Ran took Xie Yubing back to the room. He stopped, not knowing how to speak, and had a strange feeling in his heart that he was afraid that he would fall into the clear turquoise waters.
"Alright, let's talk about when you joined the Heavenly Gate!"
Ji Ran smiled angrily, obviously he didn't believe that the woman in front of him was from Tianmen.
"You don't believe me?"
She replied with a calm smile, not abrupt or surprised. It seemed like it was a pleasure to meet him.
"I don't believe anyone!" Ji Ran replied.
She straddled the top of a Taishi chair and made a gesture to ask Ji Ran to sit down.
"I'm really not from Tianmen!" Xie Yubing took off a waist card from his waist and handed it over with a smile.
"Dark Guard?"
The lines on this waist card are very familiar, and the woman in front of her is not the star of Tianmen, but the secret guard of Zhangjian Xuan.
"The Palm has sent me to assist you!" she tilted her head slightly, the light drawing perspective on her bare neck, "help me?"
"The eldest prince's affairs are already known, and he is very angry!"
"Angry? When has he not been angry?"
When Ji Ran heard this answer, he crooked his mouth. She said this in a very serious tone, frowning, as if she was talking about something very serious.
"Zhangzun hopes that you can find the murderer as soon as possible!"
"How long?"
Ji Ran put down Xie Yubing's waist card.
"A month!"
"A month, how is it possible!" Ji Ran glared at Xie Yubing in front of him angrily.
"It's not something I set, you should understand that Zhangzun's order is not something to be bargained for!"
"I look like a bargain?"
Ji Ran moved uncomfortably in the chair.
"I will be secretly lurking by your side for this month, and I will show up if you have any needs!" Xie Yubing's eyes became firm, immersed in her own thoughts, "I had no choice but to take the initiative to come to you today!"
"As a last resort?"
"If you go somewhere next time, you should first make sure that you are being followed!" she stared at Ji Ran, and then said, "You are also a veteran, Fourth Prince." ”
Xie Yubing stood up and picked up the waist card that Ji Ran casually threw on the table. Her eyes regained their brilliance, and those eyes flashed with a light that was familiar to Ji Ran.
"Perhaps, we'll meet again. She said this and left.
Ji Ran didn't have the slightest doubt about this. It's just that he's not quite sure if he's hoping for that. He only had a few seconds to think about this question, and Xie Yubing had just gone out when he passed by Su Yu.
When Su Yu entered the door, he glanced at Xie Yubing when he passed by, and then walked over and sat opposite Ji Ran. He gasped as if he had just come from the sky.
"Then who is Xie Yubing?"
"Not a significant person. Ji Ran replied, "The stars of the Heavenly Gate." ”
Su Yu nodded and relieved.
"I'm having a hard time. Ji Ran said.
Su Yu's smile made him look a little more handsome. His expression seemed to say, "As long as you and I continue to work together, there is no problem in the world that cannot be solved." ”
"I believe the two of us can solve this problem together. He replied.
Now it's Ji Ran's turn to laugh.
He met Su Yu four years ago about a theft case.
At that time, Ji Ran was entrusted to track down the thief who stole the Nine Dragons Cup given by the Emperor, and Su Yu helped him. In order to celebrate the beginning of their friendship, they went to the most luxurious March building in the capital to get drunk.
Since then, he has become a close friend with this man who is known as the thief god, and he has also learned some about this man's deeds.
In the whole world, no one will not know Su Yu, but if you want to say what he looks like, how old he is, and where he is from, no one knows.
He's a mystery-like man.
Whether it's his friend or foe, all he knows about is limited to the perfect skill of stealing.
No, he may not be stealing anymore. Whatever he wants, no one can stop him, he will always give the owner a warning before stealing, the piece of paper that exudes the fragrance of mandala flowers, and the beautiful handwriting are all his business cards.
However, even if this is the case, Su Yu still has never missed, of course, he has also fallen into a trap, and it is the woman he loves who deceived him, it is said that since that time, Su Yu has never believed in any woman.
As a thief, he will always have some amazing things, and generosity is one of them.
One year, when there was a great drought and hunger in Kanto, he donated 400,000 taels of silver in one go, and since then, he has the title of a thief god.
Su Yu poured himself a cup of tea with a smile, and Ji Ran waited for him to finish before continuing:
"It's about a book. ”
The thief leaned over the low table.
"What book? is so important? He solemnly agreed.
"This book is very special. ”
"What kind of special law?"
Ji Ran laughed again, playfully.
"The owner of the book doesn't want to sell. ”
"That's terrible!" Su Yu leaned his mouth closer to the tea, tasting it with joy, "But what kind of book would make you, a busy man, so obsessed?" he put down the teacup and wiped his hands with the handkerchief in his arms, "You don't want me to help you steal it, do you? I'm not a person who wants to steal anything." ”
"I agree. Ji Ran said, "This time is different. ”
Su Yu leaned back in the Taishi chair, looked at each other, and quietly waited for Ji Ran's talking point.
"Have you ever heard of the Devil's Bible?"
The thief nodded.
"This book is very important!" Ji Ran explained, "This book involves the death of my senior brother, I want to find out!"
"Jiang Xiaoyun?" Su Yu smiled and said, "He is your senior brother and not mine! Why should I help you?"
"Because this thing is also related to Mu Yunxiao's treasure!" Ji Ran said calmly.
"Mu Yunxiao?"
When he heard this name, Su Yu seemed to suddenly become interested. Completely lost the look he had just now.
Ji Ran pushed a sealed envelope to him.
"It has all the information you need: hosts, books and places. ”
"I know the location of that manor," Su Yu licked his upper lip, "It's really careless to hide good books there." It's a manor like that, and anyone can easily get in and out of it. He looked at Ji Ran sadly, as if he really felt very sorry for the carelessness of the owner of the manor, "He could have gotten a lot of money." ”
