I Became an Anonymous Boss

Only Heavenly Demon himself, who is not even congenital, nodded without compulsion and said: "It makes sense, compared with a schoolmaster and a god, it's just asking for fun."

Yan Qixia looked at the scenery of the river, didn't listen to other people's conversation, but what she was thinking in her heart was - she wanted to eat shaved ice.

After chatting for a while, Shirataki seemed to remember something.

He greeted the man in black robe not far away: "Do you want to have a drink too?"

The black-faced man paused for a moment, but the veiled woman answered, "Okay."

Shirataki approached with the jug in his hand, served a glass of Moutai for the other party, and passed the glass over: "Please."

The woman in black was about to reach out to take the wine glass, at this moment, Shirataki deliberately overturned the glass in her hand, and the wine glass staggered from their hands and slipped down.

The woman subconsciously went to hold the wine glass with both hands, but the next moment, her expression became stiff.

Shirataki withdrew his right hand, and there was an extra veil on his palm.

He looked at the woman with her head down and her face sideways, and sighed.

"Do you still need to hide it?"

"Tantai Ziyue..."

Chapter 160 Answer

Shirataki took off the veil of the woman in black.

The woman in black robe turned her cheeks and eyes sideways, trying to dodge.

At this time, being called out of his real name, his body froze immediately, and [-]% of the feigned anger from his body was instantly relieved, leaving only a little anxiety.

The woman sighed softly, took off her black robe, and revealed a familiar face.

"Son..."

Tantai Ziyue looked a little uneasy, she completely lost the previous aloof and aloof atmosphere, after being torn off her veil, she couldn't raise her courage at all, she couldn't raise her head under the young master's sight, as if she was caught by someone after doing something bad. Caught children.

Bai Taki's eyes glanced over Tantai Ziyue, he turned his head to look at the black-faced man at the side, and continued: "Boss Han, do you still want to wear a mask? Don't you feel bored?"

The black-faced man's expression froze, he raised his hand helplessly and tore off the human skin mask, revealing an old-fashioned middle-aged handsome face, and said with a wry smile: "In the end, I still couldn't hide it from Mr. Bai..."

"Do you still want to say that you were against it at the beginning?" Bai Taki asked back with his arms crossed.

"Is such that."

"I'll give you half a jug of wine, drink it yourself, as long as there is a peanut, it won't make you do such a stupid thing." Bai Long stared.

Han Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, it was indeed wrong in this matter.

"My lord, we didn't do it on purpose, we just wanted to lure the snake out of the hole..." Tantai Ziyue explained in a low voice, she could hear and see that Bai Taki was in a state of extreme displeasure at this time, she hurriedly opened her mouth, trying to explain the situation.

"I'm not stupid, I can see clearly that Huayao and the Tantai family have a mortal hatred, it's strange that you don't get involved." Bai Taki raised his eyebrows: "Hiding your identity is also a necessary measure, don't show too close to us It's also to make the enemy paralyzed, yes, I understand the truth..."

"Young Master, it's good to be reasonable." Tantai Ziyue heaved a sigh of relief.

"But one size counts." Shirataki tapped his elbow with his fingers, "Who gave you the idea?"

"This..." Tantai Ziyue hesitated for a while: "Actually, it's me..."

"You have this IQ?" Shirataki directly dismantled the stage.

"My lord..." Miss Tantai was a little aggrieved, but her words were not wrong.

Bai Taki said unhappily: "If you have time to act coquettishly here, why don't you just explain things to me, I've been making a fuss all night, and I finally came to a dinner party, so you just fix this place for me? It's just presumptuous .”

Tantai Ziyue refused to admit it: "We are just planning for a rainy day, so you can't blame us if you want to blame, isn't it all these group of demons who came here by themselves?"

"What about Li Pan?" Bai Taki asked back, "The prefect of Jinling was beheaded inexplicably, so what happened?"

Shang Yuwei was taken aback: "Ah, it seems that there is such a thing, I forgot."

Lan Xiangxue thought about it and said: "My lord, you are saying that the prefect of Jinling was killed by Miss Tantai?"

"It's not that I didn't, don't talk nonsense." Tantai Ziyue immediately denied it, because she couldn't bear the crime of killing the prefect of Jinling.

"Actually..." Han Xiao was about to speak when Bai Taki interrupted him.

"I know, in fact, Li Pan is not dead." Bai Taki said flatly, "In other words, the person who died was not Li Pan."

Han Xiao nodded, and then laughed. He also knew that Bai Taki couldn't hide this matter, so how could he hide it from him.

Hua Ling said softly: "What's going on? But wasn't that person beheaded? How could he still be alive?"

"It is true that someone died, but it was not Li Pan." Bai Taki said indifferently, "There was someone else."

"But it's not right." Hua Ling said strangely: "My brother and I both saw it. The last person we saw in the room was still alive. How did you complete the murder in the secret room when no one entered or exited?"

"It's not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple, it's just a trick."

Bai Taki had already figured it out, when he guessed the identities of Han Xiao and Tantai Ziyue, the answer was ready to come out.

Everyone was looking at him, participants or non-participants were silent.

Bai Taki sighed slowly: "Forget it, just to satisfy my curiosity, I will explain this secret room by the way... First of all, you need to be clear, someone died, and the body is fresh, even though there is no head , but there must be dead."

The manager in black also came over: "Really, isn't it some kind of murder? Or some kind of demon?"

Bai Taki glanced at him, and said in a firm tone, "Absolutely not. How could a Confucian at the Fate Realm be killed by a ghost? This is just an ordinary method."

Hua Ling asked in a crisp voice: "Brother son, if this is a technique, does it mean that the secret room does not exist?"

Shirataki nodded and said: "That's right, the so-called secret room is just a secret room constructed by a method, not a secret room in the absolute sense."

Shang Yuwei was thinking: "You mean the secret way?"

Shirataki shook his head.

Lan Xiangxue was holding the sword, she had a flash of inspiration and said, "Is it... the window?"

Shirataki snapped his fingers: "Correct! The main entrance is guarded, and the only thing that can pass through is the window."

The manager in black said strangely: "Isn't the window locked? The wooden latch is stuck."

"It was stuck after we entered, but before that, you and I don't know whether the doors and windows are opened or not." Bai Taki raised a finger: "If it was unlocked at the beginning, then the assassin will be locked." You can enter through this window."

"That's true." The manager in black temporarily accepted: "But the problem is, even if you can enter through the window, how do you get out? The window is locked from the inside, it is impossible..."

"It's not impossible." Shirataki interrupted again, he said with certainty: "Even if people are not indoors, it is possible to lock it."

"How to do?"

"It's simple, just use ice." Bai Taki looked at the glacier crevasse on the river: "Ice can temporarily fix the wooden bar in a certain position, so that it won't fall down, and it won't affect the access. After closing the window, It only needs to increase the temperature slightly, and it will melt into water in a short while, and the wooden bar will naturally fall into the slot, forming a blockade naturally... This is just a simple time-delay mechanism... It's just a third-rate secret room method."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people changed.

"Is this a bit..." Shang Yuwei asked strangely: "Whimsical?"

"No, as a matter of fact, there is indeed water in the slot of the window." Shirataki said.

"Maybe it's the river?"

"I thought so at first, but then I thought about it, and there is a double possibility here." Bai Taki said slowly: "If this is the trace left by the submersion of the river water, it means that the splashing water can wet Even if the window is sealed, the window is not tight enough, and the gap left is enough for the thread to pass through, so the wooden latch can be pried without ice, which will only make the technique easier."

He clasped his hands together and made a crisp sound: "In other words, no matter what, as long as there is water stain in the card slot, there is definitely something wrong with this window, either it is not tight enough, or someone has tampered with it here, In short, this secret room no longer exists."

"So... the murderer entered through the window, killed the deceased, and then set up a trap, and left through the window." After sorting things out briefly, Hua Ling asked, "Brother son, if this is the case, why do you think the deceased was not Li?" What about the verdict?"

The black-clothed manager also hurriedly asked for confirmation. Although the secret room was seen through, it was not enough to prove that the deceased was not Li Pan.

Shang Yuwei also asked curiously: "Why not?"

Shirataki also gave the answer flatly: "It's very simple, because the corpse was beheaded."

He gave a three-stage logical reasoning: "The corpse was beheaded, so there must be a meaning to it. This makes it impossible for us to confirm the identity of the deceased. We can only assume that the deceased is Li Pan, so the head was beheaded and thrown out. Jiang Zhong, to prevent people from identifying the deceased, so...the deceased is not Li Pan."

Very simple logic chain.

If he came here to kill Li Pan, there was no need to behead him at all. The beheading must be for some kind of trick, and the most common trick is the identity swap.

Shirataki was indeed speculating, but he didn't need others to agree or question him.

He directly asked the person concerned for confirmation: "I'm right, you two."

Tantai Ziyue did not speak, but her eyes showed incomparable appreciation and respect, which was already a tacit consent.

"Then... where did Judgment Li go?" Hua Ling asked strangely, "There were indeed people in the room when we first saw it."

"The person we saw was not Li Pan, he had already been replaced at that time." Bai Taki said indifferently: "Before us, a trio had already entered the room and stayed there for a while."

The manager in black nodded and said, "Yes, yes! I remember it!"

"So, this is the timing for a substitution."

"Back then, Hua Ling said that a snorer can't breathe properly. This is because the snorer is the dead, because he has already been seriously injured."

"This does not match Li Pan's situation, so since then, people have been switched."

"We all thought that there were three black-robed people back then, three people went in and three came out, so there was no problem."

"This is precisely a misunderstanding, because we can't confirm at all whether the three people who walked in and the three people who walked out are the same three people."

"Also, apart from Tantai Ziyue and Big Brother Han, the last black-robed man has never moved, and has always been asleep."

Shirataki walked straight to the third man in black robe, and said in a calm manner.

"The answer is already obvious."

"They brought the deceased into the room, replaced Li Pan, and then, in front of everyone, walked out in such a grand and simple way."

"Someone then entered the room and killed the deceased."

"And the real Prefect Li...has always been here."

He lifted off the hood of the third black-robed man, and under the hood was the sleeping Li Pan himself with his eyes closed.

Chapter 160 Four True Answer

Li Pan has never died, he has always been here.

It's just that he didn't know anything and just fell asleep like this.

Even after the sky brightened, he was still sound asleep, completely unaware of any assassination or attack.

Hua Ling opened her mouth so wide that she could almost swallow a quail egg raw.
