At the beginning, the empress will be the queen and eat soft rice to open the blind box

Erniang Lu hurried out of the embroidery building.

She didn't know why she felt afraid of Yue Zhi, a powerless person.

Could it be because of the boy behind him?
Thinking of Li De's falcon-like scrutiny of her eyes, Erniang Lu actually had a chilling feeling.

I am already a strong Martial King, how could I be afraid of a fourteen or fifteen year old boy?
unless………

Lu Erniang thought of the only possibility.

Unless that boy's cultivation is still higher than mine.

She shook her head, pushing the ridiculous thought out of her mind.

How can it be?

The teenager is at most 15 years old and will not exceed 16 years old.

Even if he cultivated in his mother's womb, how could he surpass himself as a martial king master!
But she didn't know that it was only a month or so before Li De really started to practice.

Lu Erniang knew Yue Ge.

A few days ago, when she and She Si sneaked into the abandoned house of the Li family in the south of the city, when they were about to ambush the Changfeng three demons.

Just happened to meet this Mr. Yue, and a beautiful girl was kidnapped by the Changfeng Three Demons.

Lu Erniang has seen it with her own eyes, this Young Master Yue, with the skill of an ordinary person, combined with extraordinary calculations, killed Hu Laosan and Lang Lao Qi among the three monsters.

At that time, she thought that Mr. Yue was just an ordinary person who was caught by Changfeng Three Monsters by chance, and she didn't care about him.

Looking at the skills of his bodyguards now, this person is not as simple as he imagined.

In the embroidered building, the sound of the piano curled up, and the song ended.

Yue Zhi applauded and praised,

"Miss Su's zither is so sweet that it can be played around the beam for three days without stopping."

In fact, whether it is Yue Zhi or the former prince and queen, they are all idiots who don't understand music, and they can't tell the quality of Su Qianyue's piano music.

Su Qianyue's pretty face blushed slightly, and she bowed,
"Young Master Yue has won the award, and Qianyue is ashamed. I don't know what to call Young Master Yue, and in which line of business did you get rich?"

"Me?"

Yue Zhi laughed,

"I'm just a softie."

Su Qianyue covered her mouth and chuckled,
"Master Yue is really humorous."

I wonder why no one always believes me when I tell the truth!
In the narrow alley outside the back wall of Chunfeng Yixiao Building, a large group of bored people have gathered to watch the excitement.

Some people are eager to try and plan to go in to find out.

An old and prudent man stopped him,
"There was a scream in the alley just now. Maybe there was a murder. If you go in and destroy the scene, people from the yamen will come in a while, and you will have to sue."

The man was taken aback, and hurriedly thanked him,

"Brother, if you remind me, my younger brother is already in trouble."

While talking, someone outside the crowd shouted loudly,

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the chief catcher of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is here."

Ximen Ruoshui was very depressed.

He wasn't supposed to be on duty tonight.

However, the Ministry of Punishment has one officer, two officers and three chief arrestees.

Vice President Jin Wubing arrested the head, suspected of homicide, and died together with Liu Sanniang.

The remaining deputy, Li, had a bad stomach after eating at noon, and had run to the toilet more than a dozen times in the afternoon, causing his whole body to collapse.

He laughed at himself and said that he should live directly in the toilet, so as to save the trouble of running back and forth.

Although he could still make jokes, but looking at Deputy Chief Li's pale and blue face, the official Ximen couldn't tell him to continue on duty no matter what.

Bite the bullet and send someone to send Li Bubutou home to recuperate. Ximen Ruoshui is in the office, building a few chairs, planning to deal with it for the night.

Just as he was drowsily sleeping, the sound of drums outside the gate of the Ministry of Punishment sounded.

Immediately, his subordinates came in and reported that someone had reported that a murder had occurred in the Yanzhi Lane area of ​​Bada Hutong.

Ximen Ruoshui led people quickly, and rushed to Rouge Lane under the leadership of the informant.

From a long distance, I saw the entrance of an alley surrounded by a large group of people.

His servants drove the crowd with a loud voice,
"It's gone, there's nothing to see, it's time to go home, let's go to the brothel and continue shopping."

Most people scattered with a bang.

There are only a few who are particularly boring, standing in the distance and looking around.

Ximen Ruoshui led Wu Zuo from the Ministry of Punishment into the alley.

Less than ten feet away from the entrance of the alley, there were two corpses lying on the ground.

Wu Zuo was busy examining the corpse, Ximen Ruoshui walked around the narrow alley with his hands behind his back.

He looked up at the high walls on both sides of the narrow alley, and asked his subordinates,
"Zhao Wu, what kind of people are behind the high walls on both sides?"

The catcher knew the area well,
"Boss, there is no residence behind the high wall. To the east is the backyard of Chunfengyixiao Building, and to the west is Baihua Pavilion. They are all famous brothels in Bada Hutong."

Seeing the envious expressions on the faces of his subordinates, Ximen Ruoshui couldn't help saying,
"Old Zhao, you are so familiar, don't you come here often?"

The arrester named Zhao Wu shook his head desperately,
"Boss, our little salary, without eating or drinking for a month, is not enough to spend one night here. I am stupid to come here."

"I know that you have a good relationship with Widow Liu in Hanjiaxiang, so you probably don't need to come here to waste money."

The catcher laughed a little embarrassedly.

Ximen Ruoshui pondered for a moment, could it be that the deaths of these two people were related to these two brothels?
Wu Zuo's preliminary examination of the corpse has been completed, and he rushed over to report,
"Boss, the two deceased are both in their fifties and from wealthy families.

The fatal wounds were all caused by people twisting their necks, so they should be killed by the same murderer.

The strange thing is that the time of death of the two people is not the same,

A dead body is already cold and stiff. I judge that it should have been dead for half an hour.
The other one was still a little warm, and it was killed when the reporter said it was screaming. "

Ximen Ruoshui listened quietly, his mind kept turning, trying to connect the clues that Wu Zuo said.

"Anymore?"

Nazuo nodded,

"Yes, the necks of the two corpses were twisted off, and the latter had slight abrasions between the chest and abdomen, and the front of the clothes was also damaged, as if they were thrown from behind the wall.

The person who threw him didn't want to take his life, so he deliberately let his lower abdomen rub against the wall, and changed his falling posture. "

Ximen took a look at the assistants who had helped him solve strange cases over the years,
"Zuiming, then according to what you see, what should be going on?"

Zuo Zuo, who called Zhuiming, pondered for a while,

"Boss, I think the person who died later should have been thrown from behind a high wall,
Coincidentally, the murderer killed the first person, so this unlucky ghost was also killed by the murderer. "

Senior official Ximen patted him on the shoulder,

"Yes, your analysis makes sense, but you forgot one thing."

Surprised,

"What did I forget?"

"You forgot that the first body was stiff."

"So what?"

"That means that the place where the murderer killed the first person was not here. He just wanted to pass by here to throw the corpse, but he didn't want to be run over by this unlucky ghost, so he had to kill him to silence him."
