Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

Such a character did not disappoint Ning Fan in terms of appearance.

"Lei Zhen. Jing Zhaoyin and Yang Tongwei are not doing things well. I have dismissed him from his post and investigated him. Next, I am planning to let you take the official position of Jing Zhaoyin. As for the serial murder case, you will also investigate it. I will give you three days. time, and no more people can be killed.”

Ning Fan frowned and looked at Lei Zhen.

When Lei Jian heard that he was going to be promoted from a member of the imperial guard to a second-rank official in the imperial court in an instant, he was stunned and stunned. The reaction was exactly the same as Wang Tian's reaction, which was unbelievable.

"What? Don't you like this official position?"

Ning Fan looked at Lei Zhen with a half-smile.

Hearing what Ning Fan said, Lei Zhen quickly knelt down to thank him.

Lei Zhenzi was different from Wang Tian. He was a straightforward and extremely ambitious person. Seeing the opportunity right in front of him, Lei Zhenzi kowtowed to Ning Fan to express his gratitude.

"Your Majesty, I have heard about this matter, and the Jinyi Guards are already outside to help with the investigation. I believe there will be news before dark."

Lei Zhen had already intervened in this matter, which surprised Ning Fan, but he was also a little relieved in his heart.

It is true that Jinyiwei serves the emperor alone. Logically speaking, public security cases in such a place are not under the jurisdiction of Jinyiwei, but Lei Zhen has this awareness.

"Well, I'll be waiting for your good news. Remember, it's not easy for you to perform this official position well. It can train people very much."

There is something in Ning Fan's words.

In fact, anyone who is not a fool can understand the meaning of his words. Lei Zhen can also understand what Ning Fan means, and he is immediately flattered.

As soon as Lei Zhen left, Ning Fan put on the clothes of a noble prince and quietly left the palace through the back door with a folding fan in hand.

"Your Majesty, where are we going?"

Ergou was very curious as to why Ning Fan suddenly became interested in going on a visit incognito today. Could it be because of the serial murder case?

"Remember, there are clues in everything. Although the murderer of this serial murder case has quick and neat actions and never leaves any traces, I always feel that he will definitely leave some clues."

Ning Fan was thinking about this matter while walking.

With such a big thing happening in Kyoto, he, the emperor, naturally has the responsibility. It is unrealistic to put all hope on Lei Zhen, so Ning Fan planned to go out of the palace to have a look while he had nothing to do today, and went to do some investigation. on site.

A total of six girls were killed, and the places where they were killed were all in remote alleys.

Ning Fan had seen the location of these alleys in the newspaper before, so he quickly arrived at the first alley. This alley called Maoyan Hutong was winding like a sheep's intestines. Ning Fan took the two dogs away. It didn't reach the end in half an hour.

"That's not right. There is only one road in an alley like this that can lead to the murderer. If you want to kill someone, you must go along our road."

Ning Fan deliberated as he walked.

Not long after, Ning Fan arrived at the crime scene.

The blood stains on the ground had been cleaned up long ago, and there were only some splattered blood stains on the wall. The blood stains sprayed on the wall almost occupied the entire wall.

Ning Fan's expression was a little solemn, which meant that the murderer cut the victim's artery with one knife. Otherwise, the blood would not have sprayed so far.

"Your Majesty, where can we find the murderer in this vast sea of ​​people?"

Ergou's face turned pale when he saw the frightening bloodstains. This was not to say that Ergou was greedy for life and afraid of death, but because he felt that with so many people in Kyoto, it would be impossible to find the murderer among the vast crowd.

"Everything depends on human effort, don't say it's impossible."

Ning Fan then visited several murder sites, and then came to Jing Zhaoyin's Yamen.

At this time, Lei Zhen had just started work on his first day. As the Qianhu Lei Formation of Jinyiwei, he left Jinyiwei directly and took charge of Jingzhaoyin. He was still a little unaccustomed to it on the first day. After all, the quality of these government officials was completely different from that of Jinyiwei.

The officials and servants in Jing Zhaoyin's yamen were all a little dissatisfied with this Jin Yiwei. After all, a small member of a thousand Jin Yiwei suddenly became a high official in the imperial court, and no one was convinced.

"Jingzhao Yin Leizhen comes to see His Majesty."

Lei Zhen didn't realize at all that the emperor Ning Fan would come to visit his class on his first day at work, and he was immediately moved and confused.

He realized that Ning Fan was probably here to support him, and the emperor himself came to support him. This made Lei Zhen burst into tears, and he could hardly say anything moved.

"Bring me the detailed map of Kyoto."

Ning Fan didn't waste any time and quickly asked Jingzhao Yin Yamen to take out the map of Kyoto and spread it on the table.

Immediately afterwards, Ning Fan marked all the locations where recent murders occurred with a red brush.

"Your Majesty, the places where the murders took place don't seem to be very far away."

Lei Zhen frowned when he saw this scene.

"There is nothing surprising about this. There is always a limit to a person's daily activity radius. This person cannot be in Kyoto today and arrive in Jiangnan tomorrow."

Ning Fan touched his chin and carefully analyzed the connections and distances between these murder cases.

"People in Kyoto are panic-stricken. Even the imperial examination scholars who came from other places to take the examination are locked in the inn and dare not go out. However, the murderer will not attack men for the time being. These imperial examination scholars should be safe."

As Ning Fan's most capable subordinate, Lei Zhen naturally knew what Ning Fan cared about most. In recent times, what Ning Fan cared about most was naturally the imperial examination.

It would have been better if Lei Zhen didn't say this, but as soon as he said it, Ning Fan fell into a great panic. He turned his head and glanced at Lei Zhen. He didn't know why he suddenly felt uneasy. At this moment, there were two arrests outside. rushed in.

"Your Majesty, there was a fire in the Pinglin Inn. Sixty-three scholars who came to Beijing from other places lived in the inn..."

The faces of the two detectives were a little ugly, and they couldn't say the following words at all.

Lei Zhen was so shocked that he covered his mouth, with a shocked look on his face. This was just a casual mention, but he didn't expect that things happened suddenly.

"There's a fire in the inn, are there any casualties?"

Ning Fan quickly grabbed the policeman and asked.

"The fire broke out so quickly that all sixty-nine people including the innkeeper died."

The two detectives had ugly expressions on their faces. They didn't know what these words meant to them.

Sixty-nine people were burned to death in one fire, which was simply terrible news for Ning Fan.

"This matter is not simple."

Ning Fan immediately realized that there might be a deeper reason behind this serial murder case, and it was not just because of the murderer's psychopathy.
