Northern Song Dynasty: The City of Qingquan Mystery Case

Everyone looked at the box in astonishment, and after a sudden realization, they strode over and opened another box with their hands outstretched.

There is also a piece of white flowers in this box.It is white and red, the length is the same, there are dragon and phoenix totems on it, and the tails all have the same hollow.

Ganqing smiled all of a sudden, and said to Xiangquan with some admiration, "You really have it."

"Young Master Yi is really strange."

Mr. Zhao finally spoke. He looked at Xiangquan with a look of surprise on his majestic face.

Xiangquan sent someone to bring the rhinoceros.

There was silence in the hall, only Xiangquan walked forward slowly and saluted.

"The Strange Robber in Tsing Yi notifies the government office before stealing, so the number of guards will increase. The increase in the number of people seems to increase the difficulty of stealing. But from other aspects, when everyone is busy protecting a small object, it is easier to steal success."

Mr. Zhao looked at Xiangquan seriously, his eyes were unpredictable.

"Appreciate further details."

"He burglarized fourteen times and all succeeded. Which one do you think the guard failed the most?"

Mr. Zhao frowned slightly: "The first time? At that time, no one paid attention to the thief's notice of theft."

Xiang Quan shook his head: "It's in Hangzhou Mansion. He only stole one finger, but he used 100 guards. At night, in order to prevent Qing Yiqi from stealing spices or drugs to anesthetize the guards, they decided to arrange the guards outside. No one thought , it rained suddenly, the wind blew up, and all the lights went out. The ring finger is not much heavier than a stone, how can it withstand the blowing of the storm? In the darkness, everyone was in a mess, and finally the ring was in chaos lost."

"That doesn't mean anything, the two cases were different—"

"The point is that even the best guards are no match for 'chaos'. Chaos is fatal. If it's a war, 'chaos' can destroy an entire army. But if we do the opposite, once a thief falls into chaos, he can't steal implement."

After Xiangquan finished speaking, the others were all silent.The rhinoceros bone chopsticks have been brought and handed to Xiangquan by the guard.I saw Xiangquan throwing the rhinoceros bone chopsticks into the big box in full view.

He mixed the real thing with [-] fakes.

"Xiangquan, you—"

Qianqing almost wailed, but Xiangquan didn't answer.After mixing it in, reach out your hand and stir it, looking leisurely, as if you are stirring the rice in your own rice jar.

"Master Yi!" Fu Yin Yang's face turned purple, he stretched out his fat hand, and pointed at the box tremblingly.

Xiangquan said with a smile: "At the time of You, it's almost dark. When night falls, how can you tell the real one among the ten thousand chopsticks?"

Qianqing's eyeballs almost popped out: "But, but you—"

Xiang Quan took a clear look: "Besides, Mr. Xia is probably the most well-informed person in the whole city, and he also knows me best, and he only knows the whole plan at this moment. Then, what about the Tsing Yi Robber? Heh, let's assume that he is now Got it, but he's going to steal tomorrow."

Fang Qian was a little nervous and said: "Listen to Mr. Yi, the Tsing Yi Bandit already knows our plan?"

"There is no impenetrable wall, let's assume that he knows it now," Xiangquan continued to laugh, speaking very fast, "The real product is mixed with the fake one, and all the ten thousand and two are spread out in the backyard, leaving only 15 There are 15 guards outside the courtyard, night curfew, city ban, and roadblocks in all streets, and the remaining 40 people, except for the city gate guards, are patrolling all lanes. Suspicious people must be arrested, but remember not to neglect their duties. "

People around were surprised or admired, only Qian Qing looked disdainful.

"Rhinoceros bone chopsticks are not worth much, but the workmanship is very good." He walked over, picked up a fake, and played with it carefully in his hands. "The material is similar in weight, but the workmanship is a bit worse. It looks like something made in a hurry. Experts can see it." You can tell with just a few glances."

I saw that the hollowing at the tail of the fake is not the same, some have fewer stripes, and some are not hollowed out to the bottom.But the real rhinoceros is well-made.

Xiangquan laughed again: "In the dark night, the whole city is guarded. When it was dark, two chopsticks were selected from ten thousand chopsticks and taken away smoothly. We only gave that thief one day to think about countermeasures. And his Distinguishing time, stealing time, and escaping time are all limited to one night—from Xu time to sunrise."

He put the chopsticks back casually, followed by everyone's silence.

Shut up even.

Probably waiting for Mr. Zhao to express his opinion.

"This is a dangerous way, young man." Master Zhao said slowly, his beard trembling slightly and his face expressionless.

At this moment, Xiang Quan raised his head and glanced at Mr. Zhao, but that glance swept from head to toe without missing any details.Xiang Quan first looked at Mr. Zhao's hair and official hat, and seemed surprised.Immediately afterwards, he shifted his gaze to the exquisite jade pendant on Mr. Zhao's waist. Xiang Quan scanned the skirt, inner shirt, and finger rings one by one.

Qianqing also stared curiously, but couldn't see anything unusual.

The glance went on for a while, and it was neither polite nor comfortable.It was the first time Master Zhao was looked at so presumptuously, and he was a little unhappy.

Xiang Quan raised his head and looked at Master Zhao with a smile, his eyes were firm and unpredictable.Seeing his expression, Ganqing was relieved, he thought that Xiangquan had finally come to his senses and apologized for his unreasonableness, but what Xiangquan said was inexplicable.

"You must not be afraid of danger when you come here this time, so what if you catch it or not? It's none of your business."

Xiangquan paused for a moment, then said again: "If you just came to see the play, it must be a worthwhile trip."

It was very quiet inside.

Yi Xiangquan is looking for scolding.

Ganqing smiled wryly, feeling that Xiangquan was talking nonsense again, and his mind was not normal.But Qianqing is not against unreasonable words, but feels happy.Maybe it's because he is young and energetic, he feels that in this day and age, being an official is not worthy of respect.

Contrary to everyone's expectation, he thought Mr. Zhao was going to be angry, but he was stunned for a moment, and then he burst out laughing, and told Yang Fuyin that everything should be done according to the young man's instructions.

When Mr. Zhao turned around, he closed his majestic eyes, moved his lips slightly and murmured.

"He's really good."

However, no one heard this sentence.

Gan Qing forgot Yang Fu Yin's expression, forgot how they deployed their guards next, and only remembered that the Yongcheng government office was busy from top to bottom.

Regardless of the difficulty of stealing [-] chopsticks, the theft of the Tsing Yi Bandit is scheduled to be on the fourth day of the city ban.Even if they can't catch them that night, they still have three days. Even if they search from house to house, there will be results.

But as he thought about it, he had more and more questions.Finally, he and Xiangquan went back, and the moon was on the branch.

Today Ganqing willingly became Yi Xiangquan's attendant, and the two went to patrol the streets to inspect the guards.

Under the bright moonlight, Xiang Quan's face was extremely pale.

"I always feel that you have something to say." Gan Qing looked at his pale face and asked tentatively, "If you have doubts, just speak up."

"I suspect that the strange thief in Tsing Yi overheard our conversation."

Hearing the words, Qianqing hurriedly said: "I always feel that someone is staring at us these days! Maybe he is lying on the roof and staring at us every day—"

Xiangquan stopped and gently lifted the lantern.As night fell, the streets were deserted.

"Surveillance is only a possibility, and there may be ghosts inside."

Xiangquan spit out these words softly, and his voice disappeared with the wind.
