Fight wits and courage with drama masters every day
Chapter 12: Poisoning
The Jiayi team rushed back to the teahouse and sealed it off, but at this time it made no difference whether the teahouse was sealed or not. The customers who came and went were scared away by the sudden assassination. Standing aside respectfully, wiping the bean-sized beads of sweat on his forehead, he said tremblingly that he was wronged, not knowing how the poison got into the pastry.
In the kitchen where you can see the whole picture clearly at a glance, Shen Jue checked the pastries on the counter one by one: "Has no one been to this kitchen?"
"No, no." The restaurant owner said quickly.
"Come here." Shen Jue still remembered the boy who brought the cakes to the table.Summon him to yourself: "Has anyone else touched this plate of pastries from the kitchen to the table?"
"No, no, no." The boy shook his head frantically, "I brought it up directly from the kitchen. You are a distinguished guest, and we dare not neglect you, without passing through other people."
That's strange, no one has approached it from the beginning to the end, so where did the poison come from?
"It's not in the kitchen." Xuan Xing received the summation from A Si, "There are no traces of people staying on the kitchen steps, doors, windows, and eaves, it can only be delivered to the table for a while after leaving the kitchen door. "
As soon as the waiter in the shop heard it, he knelt on the ground with a plop, and his nose and tears flew to Xuanxing's feet in fright, crying: "My lord, I really didn't inflict this poison. My lord, how dare you poison your lord? My family There is also an old mother and a younger sister who want to raise, just want to beg for food, dare not do this kind of thing, my lord, you have learned from me..."
Everyone present was taken aback by the waiter's quick response, and the owner of the teahouse also knelt down belatedly, begging for mercy, and Xuan Xing held his forehead with a helpless expression: "Of course you didn't do it, This kind of poison cannot be obtained by ordinary people, so get up quickly."
The owner of the shop trembled and did not dare to get up: "This plate never left Xiao's hands, and I met a few customers along the way, and it was delivered to the table of the distinguished guests smoothly. From serving to serving, it never left Xiao's sight. Poisoning can only be done in the kitchen, my lord."
"Even if a person with high martial arts poisons you in front of you, you may not be able to detect it. Okay, don't talk about this, get up quickly, we're done with the investigation." Xuan Xing walked towards Shen Jue who was standing in front of the stove :"What are you looking at?"
"The window." Shen Jue glanced at the pastry placed by the window, "The stove is here, if the other party knows what the pastry I ordered, just stand in front of the window sill and put the poison in front of the pastry that comes out. , This backyard is very easy to sneak around, and avoid meeting people. The possibility of poisoning here is the greatest."
After Shen Jue finished speaking, he looked at the younger brother who had just stood up from the ground: "When you came to serve the cakes, did you see the cook bring them out of the steamer with your own eyes?"
"Exactly." The waiter plopped down on his knees again, "I saw Brother Zhang bring it to me from the steamer with my own eyes."
"..."
Seeing his embarrassing expression, Xuan Xing smiled: "What? The assassin opened the steamer on the stove outside the window, sprinkled poison on one of the pastries, and then the cook just picked one out of the four pastries. Will the poisonous plate be delivered to you again?"
Shen Jue snorted coldly, turned around and walked out of the kitchen.
"Qingyang? Angry?"
13. Chapter Thirteen: Corpse
Xuan Xing chased Shen Jue all the way out of the yard to the hall, seeing him standing still, he hurried over to coax people: "Qingyang Mo Qi, I..."
"Why are you angry?" Shen Jue said, "I just proposed a possibility. It's normal to be rejected. The important thing is the poisoner. Do you think it will be the assassin?"
When he was talking, he looked up at the window on the second floor where the assassin jumped in, frowned and said to himself: "The martial arts are not bad, and the movement skills are peculiar. It's very ruthless, it's trying to put me to death, it has nothing to do with me now, it can only be a matter of the past..."
Shen Jue didn't smile, and when the whole person calmed down, the face that didn't look like a few years ago became more and more unfamiliar. If it wasn't for the familiar voice, Xuan Xing would have suspected that the person in front of him was not the same person as before.
His mind is quick, and his skills have not regressed. Several times he wondered whether the person in front of him had real amnesia or fake amnesia, but after much deliberation, he couldn't get an answer.
"Master Shang Shulang?"
As soon as Xuan Xing came back to his senses, he saw Shen Jue poking his head to look at him, his eyes were full of inquisitiveness, and he regained that silly and silly temperament, and the familiar person came back again, "What's wrong?"
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Jue said, "Do you know what happened to me before? Why didn't I go to Yizhou when I wasn't in the capital? Isn't that a war? Am I going to join the army?"
"I don't know." He realized that this person had been pretending to be stupid with him, whether it was real amnesia or fake amnesia. Thinking of this, he turned his head in embarrassment: "I told you, we have been separated for many years .”
"Oh." Shen Jue nodded, and asked again, "Then when your subordinates rescued me, did they find anything wrong? I never leave my body, where is my gun?"
"I don't know." Xuan Xing said he didn't know again, but at this moment he had collected his emotions and was able to look directly into Shen Jue's eyes, "I will report this matter to the Yamen for them to interrogate, and then let Jia Yi investigate secretly. , you will bring more people with you when you go out in the future."
"Ah? Oh." Shen Jue responded, "Why don't you know anything?"
Xuan Xing laughed: "I'm not a god, how could I know everything."
"You can always find that assassin. He has already shown up, if you can't find out..." Before Shen Jue's provocative method was used, someone called out to his master from a distance, his feet not sticking to the ground. Fly into the teahouse.
A knelt one by one, and landed firmly in front of Xuan Xing: "Master, when we traced to the north of the city, the assassin disappeared, leaving only a corpse dug out of the soil."
"A corpse dug out of the soil?" Shen Jue was a little surprised, "What does this have to do with assassinating me?"
Jiayi replied very honestly: "This subordinate doesn't know, but when he saw that the people from the yamen had arrived, he came back and reported to the master."
Shen Jue looked at Xuan Xing, Xuan Xing looked at Jia Yi, and Jia Yi looked at the ground, the three of them stared at each other like this, Shen Jue thought it was not a problem to look at each other like this, so he suggested: "Let's go and see too? "
"Let's go then."
Shen Jue could feel that when Xuan Xing said this, Jia on the ground breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had escaped a catastrophe.
A lot of people gathered outside the north gate of the city. Shen Jue came all the way and listened to the east and the west to sum up the general idea: "It seems that a female corpse who has been dead for a while crawled from the ground to the gate of the city to seek justice? What? Strange."
"I'm afraid it was thrown back by the assassin to confuse the public." Xuan Xing reminded, "He assassinated you first, and then threw the body out. He may be trying to lure you there. You must be careful."
Shen Jue said disdainfully: "Even if I don't have a gun, just picking up a stick on the ground can beat back seven or eight hooligans. It's you who should be careful, you have small arms and legs, and you don't have any martial arts... eh Hey, I seem to have seen you holding a soft sword in your hand, where did you hide that sword? Do you know martial arts?"
"A little bit." Seeing his eyes sweeping over his body, Xuan Xing couldn't help straightening his back and walking more dignifiedly, "It's enough to protect you."
"Come on, it's almost enough for me to protect you." Shen Jue looked around, couldn't help touching the belt around his waist, "This is it, it's so beautiful, you can't tell it's hidden here."
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, a man punched Shang Shulang's belt. It was seen that he might say something, but Xuan Xing didn't care, just smiled and held his hand: "Don't make trouble, it's almost here."
As soon as Shen Jue raised his head, he saw officers and soldiers not far away surrounded by pedestrians watching the excitement, which was very lively.
They could only squeeze all the way in front of the officers and soldiers, Xuan Xing took out the badge and waved it, and the man let them go.
"Master Yang." Shen Jue called out from a distance, and a young man in official uniform stood in the distance and looked over.
"Xuan'an Pond? Why did you come here?" The two of them seemed to be familiar with each other, so they called Xuan Xing directly.
"I came across something, so I came over to have a look." Xuan Xing said.
Yang Shaolin saw the person following Xuan Xing, and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Who is this?"
"A friend of mine is Ying Xia." Xuan Xing casually babbled a name, introduced Shen Jue to him, and said to Shen Jue, "This is Yang Shaolin, Lord Yang, the deputy of the governor of Kyoto, and he is on duty today."
Seeing his face, Shen Jue froze for a moment, then said: "Meet Mr. Yang."
Yang Shaolin looked at Shen Jue's face and frowned, without saying a word.
Xuanxing's heart skipped a beat: Could it be that Yang Shaolin knew Qingyang?Even recognized him already?
He has a bad heart. Although he has been paying attention to it all these years, he still can't know everything. He brought Shen Jue along this road, and he didn't know how many people saw it. If he recognized it, he would be reported. …
He clenched his hand unconsciously, thinking in his mind how to deal with it if this happened.
At this moment, Yang Shaolin said: "I think you look familiar, I seem to have seen it somewhere."
Xuan Xing's heart sank, as expected...
Shen Jue looked at him with a smile on the other hand: "Where does it look familiar? Master Yang is so good-looking, if I have seen it, I will never forget it."
Yang Shaolin looked at him for a while, and finally loosened his brows: "That's right, Mr. Ying is very handsome, if you have seen him, you will never forget."
"That's right." Shen Jue laughed heartlessly, and looked behind him, "I heard that there is a corpse crawling out of the ground crying for grievances, where is it, let me see."
Seeing that Shen Jue was jumping to look very curiously, Yang Shaolin wanted to block it, but seeing that Xuan Xing had no reaction, he had to step aside, and said helplessly, "This corpse is a bit strange, you are only allowed to look at it, not move it."
"No, no, I'll just take a look." Shen Jue saw the corpse on the ground as he wished.
