There's something wrong with this assassin

Chapter 179 Hindsight Zhuge Liang (Second Change)

In Hongxiu Bieyuan, a large group of officials surrounded them aggressively early in the morning.

The steward held money in his sleeve and wanted to go up to accommodate, hoping that they would not frighten the benefactors who were high in the spring night and the short day. After all, they were sleeping soundly after a night of love. If they were surprised by the officials , that is a great sin.

"Our Hongxiu Bieyuan has someone from above!" The steward yelled loudly at the official post, thinking that the stick first and the carrot later, this kind of operation is a tried-and-true recipe in any place.

"Who is above you?" A man walked out from behind the official post and said in a low voice.

Just as the steward was about to shout, he saw the man's face and immediately knelt down with a plop: "Fu, Mr. Futai, why are you here in person?"

"You mean, I didn't come to Hongxiu Zhao in person before?" Zhou Dunru said coldly.

The butler could only slap himself hard on the face: "Look at my stinky mouth, Mr. Futai, what are you doing here?"

"When you come at night, you have a place to go at night, and when you come during the day, there is also a reason for the day." Zhou Dunru looked at the steward who slapped himself in front of him, and sneered: "There is no need to fight, get up."

When the steward retreated to the side and thanked him again and again, Zhou Dunru turned around and looked at Mr. Zhao Da in black: "Let's go, if I hadn't come here in person, ordinary people really wouldn't be able to enter this red-sleeve courtyard."

Mr. Zhao Da nodded.

Surrounded by officers and soldiers, the two entered the red-sleeve courtyard where Shang Jiuge and others had lived in the night.

"Who did this other courtyard originally belong to?" After Zhou Dunru entered, he saw that the originally elegantly decorated room on the first floor was in a mess by a thunderbolt. Pieces of iron were everywhere in the room.

"The Sheng family in Shanxi." Mr. Zhao Da said indifferently: "To be precise, it belongs to Sheng Junqian, the son of the Sheng family."

"Sheng family." Zhou Dunru nodded, and suddenly remembered something: "Sheng Junqian is the Sheng Junqian you mentioned last night?"

"Who else is it?" Mr. Zhao Da said coldly.

"But this place seems to have been attacked last night." Saying this, Zhao Jing turned around: "There is no blood left, so it means that at least no one was injured here last night."

"But what about people?" Zhou Dunru couldn't help asking.

"If someone threw a bomb into the yamen, would you continue to sleep there until the next morning?" Zhao Jing raised his head and said sarcastically, "Let's take a look upstairs."

On the second floor of this small building, they saw the neatly cut window lattice.

The windows, which were originally separated by wooden grids, were accurately cut into ninety-nine and eighty-one pieces.

Scattered all over the place.

"There are no traces of fighting here." Zhao Jing continued, "But someone was tied up here."

Saying so, he pointed to the rope on the ground.

"And." Zhao Jing pointed to the footprints left on the table: "The direction of the footprints is facing inward, which means that someone directly broke through the window and entered it from the outside."

"Judging from the size of the footprints, the person who came should be a woman."

Zhou Dunru looked out of the window, only to see that there was no place to stand outside the window, so he couldn't help asking: "If she broke through from outside the window, how did she get in?"

"Can she really fly?"

"You don't need to be able to fly." Zhao Jing shook his head and said, "As long as the Qinggong is good enough."

"What kind of lightness kung fu is good enough?" Zhou Dunru couldn't help asking.

"A master who is good at lightness kung fu at the third rank, or a master at the second rank or above."

At this moment, a man in black from six doors downstairs came up, and cupped his hands: "Report to Mr. Zhao Da, the drinks and food on the ground on the first floor have been tested, and they are poisonous, and they are extremely poisonous."

Zhao Jing nodded and waved his hand: "Go down."

"By now, things are almost clear." Zhao Jing said.

"How do you understand?" Zhou Dunru asked.

"Shang Jiuge Sheng Junqian lived here last night, and then they ordered a table of banquets and ate and drank, but they didn't expect someone to poison the food and drink."

"So when the assassination came, they had no power to resist. That's why there was no blood on the first floor."

"Because there is no resistance at all, and the poison will not see blood." Zhao Jing analyzed.

"But I heard that there is a poison that bleeds from the seven orifices?" Zhou Dunru whispered.

"What did you say?" Zhao Jing asked.

Zhou Dunru quickly shook his head: "No, I didn't say anything, you continue."

"After they were caught, someone was taken away. I think it should be Shang Jiuge, and Sheng Junqian may also be included."

"But there was one person who was unknown, so he was taken to the second floor and interrogated." Zhao Jing analyzed.

"Then who is the person who broke in through the window?" Zhou Dunru couldn't help asking, "Isn't their target Shang Jiuge?"

"Hasn't Shang Jiuge been arrested now?"

Zhao Jing was a little stuck for a moment.

Yes, if Shang Jiuge had already been captured, the mission was completed, and there was only one unknown soldier tortured upstairs, then why would there still be traces of someone breaking in from the outside.

"Wait, let me think again, let me think again."

Zhao Jing paced around in place for two weeks, then went downstairs to investigate, then went upstairs and sat on the ground thinking hard.

"correct!"

Zhao Jing patted his thigh.

"You thought of it again?" Zhou Dunru looked at Zhao Jing.

"Yes." Zhao Jing nodded: "This time it was the Silver Bee Assassin of the Hive who performed the assassination. Both of them were famous before joining the Hive."

"The Hive Assassin has always been paired with a man and a woman to perform tasks. One is responsible for assassination and is called bee needles, and the other is responsible for coordination and assistance and is called bee wings."

"Because the personalities of bee needles and bee wings are often complementary, the success rate of assassination is also greatly improved."

"And this time, if I'm not mistaken, the poison on the first floor was given by Wei Tianyao, a pharmacist of bee needles and poisons. He is a well-known poison master in the world."

"And the thunder that was thrown later was thrown by Lei Yunniang in the cloud."

"They are the assassins sent by the hive to assassinate Shang Jiuge."

"In this way, it will make sense."

Zhou Dunru looked at Zhao Jing's determined face: "Then tell me, has Shang Jiuge been arrested?"

"Is he dead now?"

"Since you said that the life and death of Shang Jiuge is very important to today's martial arts."

Zhao Jing nodded: "Of course Shang Jiuge is not dead."

"Not only did he not die, but Wei Tianyao was tied up, and Yunniang was gone."

Zhou Dunru looked at Zhao Jing: "What do you say is the same as what you saw with your own eyes?"

"Because the original appearance of the crime deduced through on-site deduction is supposed to be as if it was seen with his own eyes." Zhao Jing said of course.

"Let me ask you." Zhao Jing sat on the floor and looked up at Zhou Dunru.

"If you were Yun Niang..."

Zhou Dunru directly interrupted Zhao Jing: "I'm not Yunniang!"
