Kaifeng Cat and Mouse Detective Manuscript

Chapter 9 The Golden Water Poison Murder Case 9

The cold moonlight followed the figure into the room, and it looked like a woman. Zhan Zhao saw that she was leaning against the door and looked inside but didn't move, as if wondering why the room was so quiet.

After a while, seeing that there was no sound in the room, the woman came in with confidence. Zhan Zhao had already seen that the woman had no martial arts skills, but why would ordinary women come to his room in the middle of the night?

"Isn't this the one who sang ditties at night?" Bai Yutang leaned into Zhan Zhao's ear and asked.

Zhan Zhao stared at the front without making a sound, the woman hesitated for a few steps, then slowly leaned closer to the bed, and when the curtain was about to be lifted, Zhan Zhao cleared his cough.

"Ah!" The woman couldn't help but yelled when she saw that there were two people on the bed.

"Hey, what's the important thing for the girl to come to Zhan so late?"

"Zhan...Master Zhan...I...I..."

Even without lighting the lamp, Bai Yutang could still see that the woman's face was flushed.

"The girl must have gone in the wrong direction because of the black light?" On the prefect's mansion, the man is on the east side, and the woman is on the west side, and the two places are quite far apart.

"That's right! Going the wrong way!" Seeing that Zhan Zhao gave her a step down, the woman wisely didn't entangle her, and knew that Zhan Zhao probably didn't fall for it.So, before the two of them could react, they ran out.

"Hahaha, that bastard from the prefect must have found it." Bai Yutang gloated at his misfortune.

"Sleep." Zhan Zhao put down the giant que, and lay down straight.

It was already three days later when Tang Yu arrived, and he was accompanied by a man with a cloak. The man was about the same height as Zhan Zhao, dressed in purple, with a long sword in his hand, and he was undeniably chivalrous.

"I'm Zhan Zhao." Zhan Zhao stepped forward and said to the two of them.

"I've heard about Nanxia's name for a long time! This is Tang Yu, this is my good friend Yan Nanfei." Tang Yu cupped his fists and introduced the man in the cloak to Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang.

"I haven't seen you for many years, but the leader of Tang is still so young. The sound transmission Gu has already made it clear about Jinshui Town. I don't know if the leader of Tang knows what kind of poison it is?" He sat down and talked about the case of Jinshui Town.

"I asked my grandma about the corpse-eating insect you mentioned before I came here. She said that this kind of insect is very common in southern Yunnan. If I really want to check it, I can't find it. But my friend has a little impression of the dart you described. I don't know what it is now. Are you still there? Is it convenient for Fang to show him a closer look?"

"Yes, please trouble Brother Yan." Zhan Zhao took out the dart from his belt and handed it to Yan Nanfei. Seeing that Yan Nanfei was older than himself, he called Brother Yan.

"It's his house, used by Yu Yufei, the leader of the Jiuhua Tongtian Alliance." Yan Nanfei took it and observed it carefully.

"Yu Yufei? This person is not simple." Bai Yutang put his hands behind his head, pointing his toes.

"I heard that when I was young, I was not successful in the imperial examinations. Later, I was taken in as an apprentice by a mysterious old man. After I came out, I opened the Escort Agency. I didn't expect that the Escort Agency became bigger and bigger. It developed into a big alliance and occupied Jiuhua." Tang Yu stared lightly. with teacup.

"The last time I saw this dart was more than ten years ago. At that time, Yu Yufei was fighting with a man wearing a mask on the moat of Xiangzhou. When the man was about to leave, Yu Yufei threw more than a dozen darts in one breath, and one of them fell off. It landed in front of my eyes." Yan Nanfei put down the dart, landed on the stone table and bounced it several times, and Zhan Zhao picked it up again and put it away.

"Cat, why don't we go to Jiuhua to have a look?" Bai Yutang said while lying on the table.

"That's what you want, what do you two think?" Zhan Zhao wanted to solve it as soon as possible, and naturally, the sooner he could find the clues, the better.

"I just want to go around looking for medicine for him. It's a great honor to be with Nanxia." Tang Yu pointed to Yan Nanfei, and just wanted to find out who put the poison on him, so he just accepted Zhan Zhao's proposal .

The four of them made their itinerary in this way. They felt that the sooner the better, the longer the night and the more dreams they had, so they set off early the next morning.

After the magistrate heard that Zhan Zhao Bai Yutang was leaving, he hurried over with his master.

"Master Zhan!"

When the master opened the door, Zhan Zhao was packing his clothes.

"Master Zhan is leaving?" The magistrate's chubby body trembled three times.

"Zhan and Brother Bai have found new evidence and are planning to go to Jiuhua to have a look. We originally planned to bid farewell to my lord tomorrow, but I don't want you to come first." Zhan Zhao put down the package in his hand and went up to meet him.

"Mr. Zhan, what's the matter? Finding new clues is a good thing. I want to thank you on behalf of the hundreds of people who died in vain in Jinshui Town. But, you also know, Mr. Zhan," the magistrate hesitated to say, and glanced at his side Master Lou.

"Master Zhan," Master Lou understood, "You also know that the poisoning of Jinshui Town has nothing to do with our prefect, and it is also implicated in the Jianghu, so, when we return to Master Bao, can you speak more kindly?" A few words."

"That's right, Master Zhan, look at how messy the people are in Xiangzhou, and I have a lot of things to do every day, so the Jinshui Town matter really has nothing to do with me!" The magistrate stepped forward and grabbed Zhan Zhao's cuff, "Brother Zhan, brother I heard that you are always fair, and I hope my brother can understand this matter a lot." After finishing speaking, he winked at Master Lou again.

"It's a small thing, just treat it as hard work, Mr. Zhan, don't refuse!" Zhan Zhao lowered his head, and a money bag was placed in his hand.

"Master Lou, let's go! Don't disturb Brother Zhan to pack his things!" Before Zhan Zhao could reply, the magistrate pulled Master Lou out of the door and closed it thoughtfully.

Zhan Zhao opened it and saw that there was a pile of gold leaves inside.

"Hey, Yutang," Zhan Zhao said, calling out Bai Yutang in the room.

"Here you are." Zhan Zhao threw the money bag towards Bai Yutang.

"Huh?" Bai Yutang took a look, "This shit has a lot of money. Let's see if your grandpa Bai will let you go bankrupt." Bai Yutang put the money bag into his sleeve and continued to follow Zhan Zhao, "Cat, Now we have the travel expenses to go to Jiuhua."

"Well, when Mr. Bao asks, I might as well say that you took it." Zhan Zhao joked.

"It's okay, Mr. Bao won't pursue it anyway."

On the second day, before Zhan Zhao and his party left, the magistrate still did not wake up.

"Cat! Let's go!" Bai Yutang rode on the horse and waved to Zhan Zhao.

"Go!" Zhan Zhao got on his horse.

Yan Nanfei put on his cloak, and seeing that everyone was getting ready, he rode away first, followed by Tang Yu.

From Xiangzhou to Jiuhua, there is a direct official road, no need to detour, just go fast, you can arrive the next day.The four men hurried on their way, and by the time they were looking for a shop to rest at night, they had already reached the border of Jiuhua.

"Cauliflower Village? Cauliflower Shop? That's an interesting name." Bai Yutang got off his horse and looked up and down at the signboard of the inn in front of him.

This store is just on the second floor, with a big yard, and beside the yard is a field of more than ten acres of rapeseed flowers. The flowers have just bloomed at this time, and the eyes are golden.

"Four young heroes are here to stay at the inn!" Zhan Zhao and the others just got off their horses when a graceful young woman came out of the inn, waving her handkerchief to greet her.

"I just said how did I hear the magpie call today? Let me see. The four young heroes are handsome. Are you coming to Jiuhua for fun or to visit relatives? You are here to find the right place. Not only are the fees cheap, but also the wine is good. Good food."

Tang Yu and Yan Nanfei glanced at each other, then at Zhan Zhao, and then at Bai Yutang together.

"Hey, what are you looking at me for?" Bai Yutang was surprised, he was just staying in a shop.

"Miss Boss, call a few people to help the master feed the horses. Is there Chen Shao? Serve a few more pots, and the food is whatever you want, as long as you are full." Then he entered the shop at first, and Zhan Zhao followed behind.

"Er Gouzi! Come and lead the horse!" the proprietress shouted outside the door.

"This shop is kind of deserted." The four of them found a table by the window and sat down side by side, Tang Yu said softly.

"Click"

Zhan Zhao was about to answer when he saw the door was closed by the proprietress.

"Miss Boss, is the door closed so early?" Bai Yutang wondered.

"I don't know the four of you. There are no people here. At night, there will be no people. It's cold and windy at night, so it's better to close the door. By the way, do you want four rooms?"

"I'll just share a room with him." Bai Yutang pointed at Zhan Zhao.

"One is fine, and the other has a caretaker. How about the two of you?" The proprietress looked at Tang Yuyan Nanfei.

"We share one room too." Tang Yu turned his eyes and opened his mouth.

"Hey! Good! Wait a moment, I'll go to the back kitchen to urge the dishes, and I'll take some of you upstairs after eating."
