Go back to ancient times to explore the case

"The deceased Cao Yu, male, 32 years old, a dock worker, was born in Zizai Village, Kaiyang County. His parents died early, and he was raised by his grandparents. He was introverted. He and his cousin Cao Dian came to the capital to work 15 years ago. After Cao Yu was killed, he is now missing." Xu Jinhui reported, raising his hand to call for someone to bring in a man.

"This man is a worker in Cao Yu's roommate. When we visited, he took the initiative to find us and said that he had a clue." After Xu Jin finished his introduction, he said to the man, "This is Mr. Yan, the Minister of Qingtian, who is in charge of this case. You Let me know if you have any clues."

The man nodded and said: "I have met Mr. Yan, it's like this, about five or six days ago, Cao Yu suddenly asked for a day off, saying that he was going back to the village to visit his grandparents, but when he came back the next day, The whole person became a little weird, humming something all the time, looking neurotic.

After that day, he didn't even go to work. He locked himself in the house all day long, trembling with his hair in his arms whenever there was a disturbance, saying that there was a ghost, don't kill him, he knew he was wrong, and on the night he was killed, he said Something was left in the warehouse, and I wanted to check it out, so I didn't think much about it, who knew that when I woke up, I would..."

Yan Qingchuan hummed a few nursery rhymes praying for rain, and asked the man, "Did Cao Yu hum this before his death?"

The man nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, this is it." He sighed and continued: "That kid is introverted and honest, and he doesn't socialize with others. How could this happen to him? I'm sorry for his pair." The grandparents are gone, white-haired people give black-haired people, hey."

After the man explained the clues, he left Qingtian Division.

Yan Qingchuan rubbed his brows and said, "Cao Yu went to Zizai Village six days ago. He must have heard about the murder of the Kaiyang County magistrate. He knew the Kaiyang County magistrate, and he must also know the history of the Shanshen Temple. The secret of the female corpse murder case can only be solved by unraveling the past events of the year."

The atmosphere in the room was solemn, Yan Qingchuan endured the headache, and asked Xu Jin: "What happened to the dispatch to Jiangnan to find the former county magistrate of Kaiyang County?"

"It's a long journey, our people are already working hard, and it will take two days at the earliest to reach Jiangnan Prefecture."

Yan Qingchuan nodded, and continued to order: "Send a few more people here to start with this nursery rhyme praying for rain, and find out when and where this nursery rhyme originated."

"And Cao Dian, send more people to find this person as soon as possible, he must know something."

"Yes."

After arranging the tasks, everyone in Qingtian Division left the room, leaving only Xie Yu'an and Yan Qingchuan in the room.

Seeing Yan Qingchuan's headache, Xie Yu'an wanted to comfort her, but thinking of the unhappiness between the two of them yesterday, she couldn't speak in the end.

She walked out of the room, saw Luo Yi in the atrium, and quickly grabbed her and said, "Luo Yi, you will let the kitchen make a few small dishes later, and then you will bring them to Mrs. Yan's room yourself, so that she will not forget to eat in a hurry. Body matters."

After Luo Yi nodded, he expressed his puzzlement, "Miss Xie, you care about Master Yan, why don't you go by yourself?"

Before Xie Yu'an could answer, Luo Yi blinked and said, "Could it be that you quarreled with Master Yan?"

Xie Yu'an hummed vaguely as an answer.

Luo Yi said with a look of someone who came here: "It's normal for friends to have conflicts, and I often get angry when I provoke her, but as long as I coax her, she quickly calms down. There must always be one person between two people." Let’s give in first, Master Yan has always been strong, so you just take a step back and go coax her.”

Xie Yu'an looked at the innocent girl in front of him with a complicated expression, and said in his heart that it's good for you to be so simple, that fellow Rong Shi must gnaw you until there is no bone left.

In the end, she only patted Luo Yi's shoulder earnestly, "Sister, sister doesn't want to cheat you. You treat Rong Shi as a friend, but she may not treat you as a friend. Be smart, don't be eaten up by others." I don’t even know it.”

Luo Yi looked confused, as if he didn't understand.

Xie Yu'an didn't say anything more, turned around and left Qingtian Division, what she didn't know was that after she left, the girl who usually led the innocent girl suddenly smiled with sly eyes, "Whoever eats who is wiped clean, Not yet known."

"Ayi."

The moment a gentle woman's voice came from behind, Luo Yi's expression returned to her innocent look, she turned to look at the person coming, with a sweet smile, "Ah Shi."

Rong Shi approached her, looked in the direction of the door Xie Yu'an left, and asked, "What did she tell you?"

Luo Yi smiled and shook his head, "It's nothing, Ah Shi, I'm hungry, let's go eat, I want to eat Ya Xing Ge's dim sum after dinner." As he spoke, he pulled up Rong Shi's sleeves and swayed slightly .

Rong Shi narrowed his eyes and smiled, pampering her face, stroked her head and said, "Okay, I'll buy it for you."

"Ah Shi is the best." Luo Yi said, holding Rong Shi's arm affectionately, Rong Shi took a tight breath, and did not notice the flash of success in Luo Yi's eyes.

......

Here, Xie Yu'an has gone straight out of the city and came to a sparsely populated area. There are some deserted houses here. She knocked on one of them at random. There were three long and one short knocks on the door, and the door opened quickly. Zhou Zhou inside the house Surprised and said: "Miss An, why are you here?"

Xie Yu'an smiled, "Are you still not allowed to inspect the inspection work as the behind-the-scenes investor?"

Zhou Zhou smiled honestly, turned sideways and said, "Come in."

The two walked into the room, and the inside of the room looked like an ordinary residence. When they walked to the center, Zhou Zhou moved the vase, and the floor tiles under his feet vibrated.

After a burst of rumbling, the machine switch was turned on, and the large area of ​​ground at Xie Yu'an's Zhouzhou station began to descend vertically at a uniform speed. After about seven or eight meters down, Xie Yu'an and Zhou Zhou landed steadily.

There is a circular corridor in front of you, which circles around in the air, and a few meters down is an extremely wide space excavated manually. This space is divided into several areas. There are hundreds of people below. Copying something on the table, or walking around passing something.

On the top of the cave, there are criss-cross wires, each of which is hung with round bamboo slips. These wires are all controlled by a mechanism, and the design is ingenious. The people below only need to pull the desired one, and the wires will be released. Start sliding to send down the required bamboo slips.

Xie Yu'an boasted, "That's right, it's beginning to take shape."

Zhou Zhou patted his head and said, "If it wasn't for the blueprints drawn by Miss An, how could it be built so quickly."

"By the way, where is Zhou Miao?"

"Sister went to the city to oversee the construction of the Detective Hall, and she won't be back until later."

"It's okay, I can tell you, you guys use your eyeliner to find someone named Cao Dian, as soon as possible."

Zhou Zhou didn't ask why, but nodded in response.

After explaining the business, Xie Yu'an was about to leave when she suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind, and then a whip fell from her body, causing her to jump in pain.

"I told you to be disobedient, I told you to be disobedient!" A middle-aged man with stubble all over his chin and a rough face took a bamboo whip and beat Xie Yu'an hard again and again.

Xie Yu'an didn't see who it was, and shouted: "Who hit me?! Who is it?" While shouting, he pulled Zhou Zhou to hide behind him.

Zhou Zhou was sandwiched between the two, with a troubled expression on his face, "Don't, stop beating, Uncle Wen, it's not good for the people below to see it."

The man named Uncle Wen gasped heavily, then glared at Xie Yu'an, "Follow me!"

Xie Yu'an rubbed his sore arm, wanting to swear.Zhou Zhou pushed her, "Go ahead, just apologize to Uncle Wen."

Xie Yu'an scoffed in his heart, apologizing, she was beaten up with some kind of apology, she Xie Yu'an just put the words here, even if she jumped from here and died here, she would never apologize.

She arrogantly followed the man into the stone room, but the man's first sentence made her fail.

"I told you not to approach Yan Qingchuan, why are you disobedient?!"

Xie Yu'an was startled and said, "You know Mr. Yan?"

The man didn't answer her, and said with a sad face: "I told you to stay away from the capital, but you didn't listen, and I told you not to get close to Yan Qingchuan, but you didn't listen, are you worthy of your dead father like this?!"

Xie Yu'an was stunned, she thought that the little monkey was just an insignificant supporting role in the book, but now it has something to do with Yan Qingchuan.

The man continued: "Have you already found out something, so you insist on joining the Qingtian Division?"

Xie Yu'an narrowed his eyes, and asked back: "You insist on preventing me from getting close to Yan Qingchuan, because you are afraid that I will find out something?"

The man knocked on her forehead violently, and snorted heavily, "Stop being clever here, I've heard from Zhou Miao that your brain was injured and you lost your memory, it seems that you have really forgotten it all, so that's fine." , now that you leave Qingtian Division, this Laoshizi Wenruo Pavilion will also be shut down immediately."

"Why!" Xie Yu'an said angrily.

The man raised his hand and wanted to hit her again, but his hand was about to fall on her forehead and stopped. He withdrew his hand and said, "Just because your father entrusted you to me before he died, I will pull you up and count you as your half father." !"

"Who is my father?"

"You promise me to leave Qingtian Division and shut down Wenruo Pavilion, and I will tell you."

Xie Yu'an twitched the corner of his mouth, "No way." After saying that, he lifted his legs and slipped away.

"You little girl, stop for me." The man chased after her, and the two ran all the way to the winding alley in the south of the city.

While Xie Yu'an was taking a breath, someone grabbed the back of his neck. The man was about to speak, when an indifferent female voice came from behind them.

"need help?"

The two looked back together, Yan Qingchuan was standing at the entrance of the alley in casual clothes, with a calm expression on his face.

Xie Yu'an violently broke away from the man's hand, straightened her temple hair and pretended to be chic, and said, "No, I can handle it." But just after finishing speaking, the man twisted her wrist again, and Xie Yu'an screamed in pain.

"Follow me." The man took Xie Yu'an to leave, but a sword stopped him.

"Let her go." Yan Qingchuan's voice was not loud, but it implied momentum.

The man stared at her with complicated eyes.

Neither of these two gave in, and the atmosphere was solidified. Xie Yu'an could only say: "You let me go first, and I will seriously consider what you said."

The man still didn't intend to let go, staring at Yan Qingchuan, but asked Xie Yu'an, "Then do you know what's wrong?"

Xie Yu'an, who had sworn that she would never apologize just now, immediately slapped her in the face, and she said softly: "Wrong, wrong, I apologize to you, is it done?"

The man let go, snorted, and left the alley.

Xie Yu'an rubbed his sore arm, and muttered: "That's because you are a little old, so I don't want to fight with you because you are afraid that you will show your waist."

While speaking, Yan Qingchuan had already left.

Xie Yu'an hurriedly chased after her and saw Yan Qingchuan entered the small courtyard where she came last time. She was just about to leave when she was stopped by Mrs. Qin in the courtyard, "Hey, aren't you the kind girl from last time? Come in quickly. It’s time to thank you very much.”

Xie Yu'an froze in place, accepting Yan Qingchuan's slightly suspicious scrutiny, and finally had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk into the yard.
