Rebirth: Lie down with the system

The group of people arrived at the city gate, but they did not want to be stopped by four people wearing government uniforms.

"Who are you? What are you doing in Cangjiu City?"

Everyone was wondering, what is this? Why do you have to be interrogated when you enter a city?

Mu Er stepped forward.

"We passed by here and planned to take a rest here."

Several government officials looked at the good-looking boys and girls behind them, with a hint of worry on their faces.

"There are now cases of missing boys and girls in the city. If you want to enter the city, be more careful."

Mu Er frowned after hearing this.

"Missing? How many people are there?"

Mu Er looked serious and asked in a low voice.

The government officials were startled by him. Who was this man? His aura was overwhelming.

"If it's none of your business, stop asking! If you want to enter the city, hurry up." The yamen officer pretended to be calm and shouted.

Knowing that nothing could be asked, Mu Er returned to Mu Yi.

They have heard what the Yamen said.

Mu Yiyi looked at Shi Qing and asked for his opinion.

"Now that we're here, let's go see what's going on."

"Ok!"

Mu Yi really didn't expect that such a bad thing would happen in this peaceful world.

Entering the city, the bustling streets were crowded with people, but they seemed not to be affected by the disappearance.

Shi Qing and the others looked around and realized that the people on the street were all middle-aged or old people. There were very few young people. Even the children were held or carried by adults. .

It seems that the disappearance is well known in the city.

They found a spacious and clean inn and stayed in it.

At that time, the innkeeper saw that there were several young people in their group who did not want them to stay because they were afraid of something happening. They only moved in after they promised not to cause trouble to him if something happened.

They ordered two tables in the hotel lobby and called the boss while eating. They wanted to find out about the disappearance case from the boss.

Mu Er specially ordered a pot of good wine.

"Hey, boss, come here, let's have a drink together, and we'll ask you something."

When the boss saw Mu Er inviting him to drink, he knew that they wanted to know about the disappearance case, and wanted to let them know for themselves, so he agreed.

He sat down next to Mu Er, and Mu Er quickly poured him a drink.

"Boss, we just arrived in your place and we didn't know something like this happened here. Please tell us what happened with the disappearance?"

The boss took a sip of wine and sighed, "In the past three months, 12 people have disappeared in the city, which has caused people to panic. They are deeply afraid that their children are missing. Now even the school has stopped. What on earth do you think this is?" It’s something…”

"So many 12?"

"Isn't that right? First of all, it was the daughter of a city official. She and her maid went to Fajue Temple to offer incense. Unexpectedly, the maid was found fainted in the temple, and Miss Fang disappeared."

"At first, Fang Yuanwai thought that the thieves had kidnapped Miss Fang and wanted to extort money. However, Fang Yuanwai waited for a day and no one sent a message, so he went to the Yamen to report the crime."

"The Yamen also sent out many people to search according to Miss Fang's route of action, but still no one was found. I heard that they didn't even find any clues..." The boss shook his head and sighed.

"Later on, there were reports one after another. The missing people were all teenagers and almost adult children, and... there were boys and girls..." The boss covered his mouth and whispered.

"I heard that these children are good-looking. Who are they? They are evildoers..."

"With so many people missing, didn't the Yamen find any clues?" Mu Er asked with a frown.

"I did find some items left behind by the children, but what's the use of that?"

"Who are those missing families?"

"They are all ordinary people, including Yuan Fang and Yuan Chen. Their family runs a shop. They are kind-hearted and never have any grudges with others. I heard that the others are the children of ordinary people in the city."

"Everyone who has children at home is very worried now. I wonder when the Yamen will find those children?"

Shi Qing thought about it. These missing persons were all teenagers and almost adult children. They were good-looking, and they were all civilians. There were not many clues at the scene, and they were not looking for money...

Not for money, but for the children themselves. There are not many clues to show that the person who committed the crime is skilled in committing crimes or has superior martial arts skills and can quickly take people away from the scene!

And they are specifically looking for good-looking children who are about to reach adulthood, regardless of gender. Why is this?

Covetous for beauty? Is he a flower-picking thief who has no taboo on men and women?

Still have another purpose...

After the meal, everyone gathered in Shiqing's room.

"What do you think? Should we leave after one night's rest?" Mu Yi asked hesitantly.

He was afraid that if he stayed here for too long, he would attract the attention of the arresters. If the thieves really came to kidnap Shi Jing and the others, he was afraid that Shi Qing would go on a killing spree~

He knew how much Shi Qing valued his family, and his family was Shi Qing's inverse scale!

"'It's not easy.' You are so timid. Are you scared now?" Shi Jing looked at Mu Yi with contempt.

"Not Easy" is Shi Jing's nickname for Mu Yi.

"Don't call me a nickname, I have a name. Besides, am I afraid? I'm worried that you will get into trouble! The thieves' targets are good-looking people who are about to reach adulthood. You are all within this range, and I am an adult! "

"Virtue! Isn't it great to be an adult?"

“It’s just amazing~”

"You..." Shi Jing looked annoyed.

Her mouth is stupid and her brain is slow to respond. She always loses in arguments with Mu Yi~

Mu Yi looked at Shi Jing's blushing face and smiled happily.

"Okay, please stop making trouble. Now that we have arrived at Cangjiu City and encountered this incident, we cannot turn a blind eye. Since we are here to experience it, let's see if we can help those people find their children."

"Yes! Unlike some people, they just know how to run away when something happens!"

Seeing that her face was full of energy and fighting spirit, Mu Yian stopped messing with her.

Originally, he wanted to stay and see what was going on, but Shi Qing and the others were within the target range of the thieves, and he could not put them in danger regardless of the safety of others.

But Shi Qing agreed, so he no longer worried. With Shi Qing's unpredictable methods, he was only worried that the thief would not die too miserably!

"Then what should we do next?" Shi Jing asked her brother. Her brother was the smartest, so she was right to ask him!

"Is your brain just a decoration? I have to ask Shi Qing about everything."

After getting acquainted with Shi Qing and the others, Mu Yi's favorite thing to do was to tease Shi Jing. It wasn't that he had to play with Shi Jing, but that both Shi Wen and Shi Wu were too boring, and he didn't dare to mess with Shi Qing.

But Shi Jing is different. Shi Jing is straightforward and has a hot temper that comes and goes quickly. Her reactions are very funny. When she is angry, her face turns red. She is also very good-looking~

On the other hand, when Shi Jing became acquainted with Mu Yi, Mu Yi's image of being a calm young master was destroyed.

Talkative, arrogant, and thick-skinned!

She has never seen such a rogue master!

"You! You're smart, then tell me!" Shi Jingmei stared at Mu Yi angrily.

"Listen, let me analyze it for you."

"Generally, those who take pictures of women commit crimes on the move. They will not specifically select people of a certain age group to kidnap, and they will definitely leave quickly after kidnapping someone. However, the time when these people disappeared is about 7 days apart, which means that this thief is not Pai Hua Zi, and he lives in Cangjiu City."

"And he knows the people in the city very well, so he can know which family has a good-looking child, and when is the best time to kidnap someone, otherwise it would be impossible to leave no clues at all!"

Shi Jing paused, how could she not think of this?

Shi Qing also nodded in agreement, "Yes, to do this, the thief may not be alone. Moreover, these people are all kind-hearted, which shows that this is not an act of revenge by the enemy, but it also shows that this is an organized and planned action, and the murderer has a certain power."

"Specially looking for good-looking men and women, it shows that the murderer pays attention to appearance, but there are so many people in the city, there must be a lot of good-looking people, especially in the brothel. This murderer has a certain power, which means he is not a person who is short of money, so he must not only kidnap people. It’s because of greed…”

Mu Yi was startled, "Do you suspect that the murderer has an ulterior motive?"

"This is obvious. People who are in their teens and about to become adults are still children. No matter how good-looking these people are, they still have a childish look on their face. How can they be adults..." Shi Qing thought about what to use. Unexpectedly, Mu Yi interrupted him with one sentence.

"Then it can't be that the murderer has a special hobby!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room looked at Mu Yi with strange expressions.

Mu Yi felt uncomfortable being stared at by everyone, and everyone's eyes seemed to say he was a pervert.

"Why are you looking at me like this? I'm not wrong!"

"I think you know a lot about those special hobbies. Then tell me what special hobbies the murderer has." Shi Jing looked contemptuous, as if Mu Yi was a person with special hobbies.

"me……"

It was rare to see Mu Yi become speechless, and Shi Jing suddenly felt like she was okay again.

"You can't say it, right? Humph, you are so fond of making excuses, now you can't do it anymore!"

To be fair, Shi Qing said, "In fact, this possibility is not ruled out."

"No matter what, let's investigate the specific circumstances of the missing children first. Find out what these children have in common, and we will always discover the murderer's purpose."

"Murong, if you can talk to the officials, go and ask them about the specific situation of the children. The others will go to the homes of those children in pairs."

"Anything else to add?"

Everyone shook their heads

"Okay, let's have a good rest tonight and act separately tomorrow."

After a night's rest, everyone was in good spirits.

Shi Qing was afraid that something might happen to a few people, so he bought walkie-talkies and teleportation talismans from the system and gave them to a few people. The walkie-talkies had no requirements for the network, the only thing was that they needed to pay attention to the distance. He had already adjusted the walkie-talkies to the same channel, and the teleportation talisman only needed to use it. Once it is torn into pieces, it will be teleported to him, and it does not require spiritual power from the user.

Several people looked at these things over and over, especially the walkie-talkies.

Shi Qing asked them to be able to use it. At this moment, Mu Yi was holding a walkie-talkie and talking non-stop.

"Ahem, I'm Mu Yi, I'm Mu Yi."

His voice rang out on several other walkie-talkies simultaneously.

This is also the first time Shi Jing and the others have seen this thing, and they feel it is amazing ~

Several people tried it separately, and then everyone went their separate ways after ensuring that everyone could use it.

Mu Yi went to the Yamen together with Mu Er and Mu Shisan. The governor here was sent by the imperial court. His name was Zhao Kang. He was in his thirties. He was the son of a poor family who was promoted in the sixth year of Ningyuan. He did not belong to any aristocratic family. .

This person is grateful to His Majesty and is especially loyal to His Majesty.

I came to Cangjiu City firstly to monitor the Li family for His Majesty to prevent the Li family from supporting the rebels with food, and secondly to see if this grain-producing area could be returned to the country and used as the country's granary instead of letting it be in the hands of aristocratic families. .

Only after Zhao Kang arrived here did he realize the huge influence the Li family had on Cangjiu City.

Except for him, the governor of the state capital, who was appointed by the imperial court, those positions such as Yamen servants were all members of the Li family who had received benefits and promotions from the previous state capital.

Over the years, he survived in the cracks and was protected by the guards assigned by His Majesty. Then he slowly pulled out these nails and snatched some fertile land from these people, but he also stood on the opposite side of the Li family.

But now the Li family doesn't dare to openly deal with him, otherwise they will be against His Majesty.

This gave him a chance to breathe.

As Mu Er walked, he told Mu Yi about the situation of the state master Zhao Kang.

"Since this Zhao Kang is someone your Majesty trusts, we will go directly to him to understand the situation!"

"Yes!"

Several people arrived at the government office. This government office was not as majestic as the city gate, but a bit old, but it was very clean. The government servant standing at the door looked energetic.

It seems that Zhao Kang and the Li family are indeed at odds, otherwise the yamen office he manages would not be so dilapidated.

Mu Er stepped forward, showed the Ning'an Prince's Palace token to the yamen servant, and signaled him to inform the Lord of the Prefecture that the Crown Prince would pay his respects.

The yamen servant looked at the young man standing at the door and immediately nodded and saluted, "Greetings to the Crown Prince! I will go and inform the Lord immediately!"

After saying that, he ran inside.

Zhao Kang received the notice from the yamen servant and immediately went to the yamen gate to greet him.

"I didn't know that the prince was here. I missed you from afar, so I hope you can forgive me." He said and bowed to Mu Yi.

Mu Er was surprised when he saw Zhao Kang.

At that time, he was the prince's personal guard, and he had met Zhao Kang once.

At that time, Zhao Kang was just in his thirties and was in high spirits. He was entrusted with an important task by His Majesty and came to Cangjiu City. Unexpectedly, only four years had passed, and his hair was a little gray, and he looked tired and old.

As Zhao Kang entered the backyard of the government office, Mu Yi talked about the purpose of his trip.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Such a bad thing happened in the place under my jurisdiction. I feel ashamed, and I am unworthy of your majesty's trust."

"Your Majesty has been thinking very hard. Your Majesty already knows it. Please take care of yourself, so that you can share your worries for Your Majesty~"

Mu Yi saw Master Zhao looking exhausted. He thought that Master Zhao must have put a lot of effort into investigating the case after the disappearance, but he didn't know what the result would be?

"Sir, we were passing through this place and heard that there were more than ten people missing. We came here to help. I hope you won't dislike it."

"Don't dare, don't dare. I have long heard that Prince Ning'an is brave and resourceful. Now that the Prince can help us solve the case, it is really a blessing for Cangjiu City~"
