ancient criminal minds

After Lu Zheng was taken away, Bao Zheng and the jailer were taken down by Lu Che to be punished, and Zhao Xueqian also left knowingly.

Only Lu Che and Jian Yu were left in the cell.

The two looked at each other across the cell, and the air was filled with tension.In the end, it was Jian Yu who spoke first: "Lord Lu is too nervous to make my brother."

Lu Che said expressionlessly: "He's just a child, it doesn't matter if the family is nervous."

But Jian Yu seemed to hear something funny: "Master Lu, don't remind me obliquely, my heart to protect him is no different from yours."

"Protection?" Lu Che sneered, "Your protection is to let him fight for you and get seriously injured and unconscious? Your protection is to let him get involved in this whirlpool?"

Jian Yu looked at him steadily, but the fingers holding the railing were already turning white.

Lu Che approached him and lowered his voice: "You and I both know that this case is not easy now, which side are you from? Which side is Zhao Xueqian from? Or which Highness the Ministry of Punishment has secretly taken refuge in? I don't even care, but you shouldn't bring my family into this."

Jian Yu twitched the corner of his mouth lightly: "Master Lu, you are a smart person, you should know that many things need to be decided early in order to get the upper hand."

"A crazy and down-and-out gambler will end prematurely, and I gamble more than you, so I don't need to put all my eggs in one basket." Lu Che straightened up, "And you, what you should consider now is how to prevent yourself from being out first." good."

Jian Yu looked at him indistinctly, and it took a long time to smile slowly: "Master Lu, let's make a bet."

"Oh?"

"I bet, you can't solve this case, and no one in the criminal department can."

Seeing the other party's calm expression, Lu Che's face darkened: "You are courting death."

"As you said, this case has become a game, not only the game of the above, but also our game. You think you can stand by and watch, but you are already in this game, so this case we all have Can’t break it. Only people outside this game can break it.”

Lu Che didn't speak for a long time, and the modesty in his eyebrows and eyes slowly faded, revealing that no one had seen his ambition: "Do you think that the reason why you are still standing here is really because of your tough bones?"

"I know." Jian Yuman said nonchalantly, "It would be ridiculous if the methods of the Ministry of Punishment are mere." He changed the subject, "But is Master Lu really satisfied with his seniority in the Ministry of Punishment?"

Lu Che narrowed his eyes: "Based on your words, I can kill you right now."

Jian Yu spread out her hands with a fearless expression on her face.

Lu Che's expression was unclear, and then he slowly showed an unknown smile: "Okay, I'll bet with you."

Jian Yu had an expected expression on his face.

"But I have a request." Lu Che said again, "You have to stay away from Lu Zheng." He seemed not to notice Jian Yu's frown suddenly, "Aren't you going to protect him? The best way is Stay away from him. Ice and coal are different weapons, you should know very well."

After Lu Zheng finished speaking, he shook his sleeves and left.

Jian Yu stood on the spot for a long time before slowly lowering his eyes: "...that's what I used to do..."

In Zhutanju, Lu Zheng walked around like a trapped animal. Not only was he grounded this time, Lu Che also found four guards to guard him in turn, trapping him firmly in Zhutanju.

Ah Fu came back after inquiring about the news, saying that Bao Zheng had been beaten with a board and had already been sent back to recuperate.

"Hurry up and arrest me, don't worry. He will be fine in a few days. On the contrary, I am afraid that the Ministry of Criminal Justice will step up the finalization of the case in the past few days. Once the case is closed, it will not be easy to reverse the case."

Lu Zheng sighed, and for the first time resented his recklessness.He has always thought highly of himself, and after transmigrating, he has a faint feeling of suppressing these ancients in terms of IQ. It is a pity that this is not a case question, and there is only one correct answer. The dangers of people's hearts are far more complicated than this case.

Lu Zheng thought a lot these two days, did Zhao Xueqian really not know that Jian Yu was wronged?Does his elder brother really not know that Jian Yu was wronged?No, they do.However, this is not a modern society where human life is at stake. For these ancients, human life is trivial, the most insignificant thing, and can be sacrificed at will, whether it is someone else's or your own.

This kind of cognition made Lu Zheng very painful. He finally realized that he was not playing an RPG game. He had truly entered this era. He didn't realize it before, which caused the current consequences.

In the final analysis, if he hadn't shown too much and lost sight of Jian Yu rashly, Zhao Xueqian would not have gone to great lengths to kick him out.But now, Jian Yu is suffering because of his recklessness, and the innocent girl who doesn't know where is also likely to give her life.

Thinking of this makes him feel uncomfortable, but he has nothing to do now, the eldest brother doesn't believe his words at all, he even got Bao Zheng beaten up, and under the extremely depressed mood, even the snacks brought by Jixiang couldn't arouse his interest.

Lu Zheng waved his hand at Ji Xiang, and suddenly remembered something: "Jin Lu has been home for a long time, what kind of illness did she have, does it matter?"

Ji Xiang, who was making tea for him, shook his hands, almost scalding himself, forced a smile and said: "It's cold, it's been intermittent, sister Jinlu didn't dare to come back because she was afraid that she wouldn't get well."

"Oh." Lu Zheng nodded absent-mindedly, "Then you go to the warehouse to get something, and take a nanny to see Jinlu some other day, lest she think we have forgotten her."

"Yes."

Ji Xiang opened his mouth, and just about to say something, he saw Ah Fu jogging into the yard, Lu Zheng immediately jumped up and ran towards him: "How is it?"

"Don't worry, there is no physical evidence, and Young Master Jian has not pleaded guilty, so the case has come to a standstill."

Lu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately raised it again.He figured it out, big brother and the others didn't intend to catch any murderer at all, they just needed to force Jian Yu to confess, but Jian Yu gritted his teeth and refused to admit it, they would never let him go easily, and they didn't know what happened to him. How many wounds will be added.

He thought that the most cruel and ruthless people in this world were criminals, but now he found that politics was a hundred times more cruel and ruthless than him.

Lu Zheng was in a bad mood, and the servant girls didn't dare to approach him casually. There were only two guards standing beside him like the door gods. The point was that the eldest brother even sealed his dog hole. Even if he escaped from the guards, wouldn't he Do you want to climb the wall and get out?

Ever since he was grounded, Lu Zheng's daily routine is to play hide and seek with the guards, and find a way out by the way. The guards are highly skilled in martial arts, but Lu Zheng is better at being familiar with the route, so he can succeed once in a while.

Lu Zheng walked through the rockery, looked behind him vigilantly, but he didn't see the guards, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and looked up, only to find that he had come to the Shulan Garden.

The first family of the British Duke has long been separated from the Lu family, and with the sparse population, the huge Duke's mansion is simply not enough to live in. Many yards are deserted. The scenery of the Shulan Garden is not special, but a bit out of the way. Except for the regular maintenance servants, almost no one came.

Lu Zheng was also idle, the door was open and he walked in.Shulanyuan used to grow a lot of orchids, but because no one took care of them, the orchids basically withered, and there were only a few sweet-scented osmanthus trees left that grew well.Lu Zheng felt a little bored and was about to leave when he heard a few low sobs.

He walked over following the sound, and saw a girl in maid costume kneeling on the ground and weeping mournfully.

The sound of Lu Zheng stepping on the fallen leaves startled her, causing her to quickly get up from the ground, glanced at Lu Zheng and quickly knelt down: "I have seen the third young master."

"Get up." Lu Zheng was also a little embarrassed. He thought she looked familiar when he saw her side face before, but when she looked up just now, Lu Zheng finally remembered her identity, "Your name is Liu Zhi?"

Liu Zhi lowered her head: "Return to Third Young Master, yes."

Lu Zheng looked at her clothes, the taupe-colored skirt was covered with a light green bijia, he remembered that the maids in his mother's room wore green clothes, he used to secretly complain that the room was full of green and it was quite protective Eye.

"What are you crying for?" Lu Zheng asked.

Liu Zhi paused for a moment, then replied in a soft voice: "My maidservant's relative passed away, and I felt so sad that I couldn't help crying."

"I'm really sorry..." Lu Zheng scratched his head, feeling that he had nothing to say to her, so he told her to go back quickly, while he carefully searched the bottom of the wall. In such a remote yard, there are one or two dog holes. Not surprising.

Liu Zhi didn't leave, but knelt down again.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"My servant would like to thank the third young master for his life-saving grace. If the third young master hadn't returned the servant's innocence, the servant would not be reconciled to death."

"It's...not that serious." Lu Zheng was also a little embarrassed, "Actually, I think you are cautious and careful. If there were no accidents, you should not be framed so easily."

"You are ridiculously praised." Liu Zhi raised his head, showing a shallow smile, and said with emotion: "You are so easy-going, no wonder all the girls in the house are envious of sister Jinlu and sister Jixiang."

"There's nothing to envy. Everyone was raised by their fathers and mothers. It's just that I was lucky enough to have a good baby. I can understand them as much as I can. It's not worth you to say that." Probably because Liu Zhi is not like other people in the mansion. Lu Zheng felt relieved that he was respectful to him like a human being.

Liu Zhi showed a sarcastic smile: "As a master, you can still say such things, but you are born as a slave, but you are lying..."

Lu Zheng originally thought she was feeling sorry for Mrs. Dong's framing her, but saw her raise her head, her eyes were as bright as full of anger: "Does the third young master know that sister Jinlu is not sick?"

Lu Zheng's eyes widened in shock: "What did you say?"

Liu Zhi's lips curled into a cold arc: "Her brother committed a murder case, but she protected this good sister and is hiding at home now."

"Kill?" Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, "Who did you kill?"

"The green willow that was killed in Baiquan Mountain is my sister." Liu Zhi clenched his fists tightly, "Brother Jinlu has taken a fancy to my sister, and my sister went to Baiquan Mountain to keep his appointment, but Being brutally murdered by his wolf-hearted thing, Jin Lu ordered Mrs. Dong to frame me in order to prevent me from telling the truth."

She gritted her teeth, but she looked at Lu Zheng hopefully: "Third young master, I know that you are investigating this case. You are different from others. If you can restore my innocence, please help me." Give my poor sister an innocence!"
