When Huangfu Nan took out the dagger, not only Fang Jie was taken aback for a moment, even Zhan Zhao who was hiding in the dark felt his heart skip a beat, thinking that something was going to happen.

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Nan cut a wound on Fang Jie's thumb, and then cut a wound on her left thumb. Bright red blood immediately flowed out from the pulp of her finger. Her bleeding thumb and Fang Jie's thumb wanted to stick together. .

"How old are you?"

"fifteen."

"I am twenty, five years older than you. Today, I will make a blood alliance with you, and I will be your sister. From now on, I will be your sister." Separated the two thumbs that were attached, Huangfu Nan took out a handkerchief and gave it to Fang Jie.

Fang Jie: "..."

He took the handkerchief Huangfu Nan gave him in a daze, and was speechless for a moment.

Zhan Zhao resisted the urge to raise his hand to his forehead, for such a thing as a righteous marriage to Jinlan could be made by Huangfu Nan like buying and selling by force.

Fang Jie, who was treated as a younger brother for no reason, looked at Huangfu Nan in confusion: "Why did you do this?"

Huangfu Nan looked at the young man in front of her, and a corner of her heart suddenly softened. She originally wanted to say a few sentimental words, but then those words turned over and over in her stomach. No matter what, she felt that the words were too sensational, and her intention was not to be sensational.So, Huangfu Nan glanced at the boy one last time, "I like it."

Fang Jie was speechless again.

Huangfu Nan said again: "Since you already have a sister as your backer, you don't need to hide what you know." The implication is that since we are already siblings, there should be no secrets Now, tell me what you know.

Hearing this, the young man stared at her coldly with those beautiful red phoenix eyes. He was touched a little bit just now, but no matter how touched he was by the person in front of him, it would always be just a glimpse.

Huangfu Nan has been thinking, how can a radical young man let go of his guard?

Once raised by others, and later sold to Fengyuelou, probably walking on thin ice every step of the way, wishing to escape from this kind of life all the time in my heart, but there is nothing I can do.After much deliberation, she didn't think of any good solution, but when she said that she could take the boy away, his complex eyes reminded Huangfu Nan of the feeling when she was young when Huangfu Jing brought her home .

With an idea, there was a strong buying and selling style of righteousness Jinlan that surprised both Zhan Zhao and Fang Jie.

Fang Jie was probably also shocked by Huangfu Nan's actions, the young man's heart was extreme and sensitive, he never expected that someone would treat him sincerely and said he would take him away.Regardless of whether it was true or not, it still moved his heart.

After all, this is the first person who is willing to treat him as a human being.

Moved is moved, the long-term self-defense cannot be withdrawn immediately.Fang Jie held Huangfu Nan's handkerchief in his hand, pursed his thin lips, and lowered his eyes.

Huangfu Nan: "If you don't believe me, you should also believe the people in Kaifeng Mansion."

Fang Jie suddenly looked up at her.

Huangfu Nan met his gaze, "I'm Master Bao's righteous sister, I didn't come here alone, Master Zhan Zhaozhan is also with me."

As soon as Huangfu Nan finished speaking, Zhan Zhao's slender body came out from behind the heavy curtain.

Fang Jie: "...!"

The man in casual clothes was tall and tall, with a heroic look in his brows. His energetic eyes swept across Huangfu Nan, and finally fell on Fang Jie. His deep and deep voice was somewhat unquestionable: "Xiao Brother, no matter what Kaifeng Mansion is, it still has the ability to get you out of here. Since Huangfu made a promise, it is naturally a promise from Kaifeng Mansion to you."

Seeing with courtesy first, and then moving with affection, Fang Jie finally let go after seeing Zhan Zhao.

Huangfu Nan felt that he had never been so clever in his life.

But before Huangfu Nan and Zhan Zhao could bring back the news they got from Fang Jie, that night, another high-ranking official in Kaifeng City was killed in the well-known inn Yuelai Inn.

Huangfu Nan and Zhan Zhao hurried back to Kaifeng Mansion before they could sleep in time. Bao Zheng, Gongsun Ce and others were present in the room where Kaifeng Mansion was discussing the case, with serious expressions on their faces.

"Brother."

"grown ups."

The two entered the house side by side and saw Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng stood near the window and waved his hands, "You don't have to be polite, Mr. Gongsun, first tell everyone about the murder case last night."

Gongsun Ce nodded lightly, and there was another portrait of the deceased on the blackboard hanging on the wall in the room, "The deceased is Mr. Feng Tianfeng of the current court. He was stabbed to death in his sleep, and when his body was found Already dead. The house where the homicide happened is in the backyard of the inn, and the garden on the left side is conveniently in front of the wall. The choice of place is consistent with our previous analysis, although it is not clear whether Mr. Feng was the same as the previous deceased. However, the modus operandi of this murder case is the same as that of the stabbed to death cases in the previous murder cases, and the deceased did not suffer any torture before death, so it can be temporarily judged that the murderer is the same gang as the previous murder cases."

Huangfu Nan looked at the newly added image on the blackboard, "Feng Tian?" She frowned, then took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and shook it, a little surprised.

Seeing this, Bao Zheng asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Huangfu Nan handed the paper in his hand to Bao Zheng, "This is the list Fang Jie made. He has seen these people at some flower viewing parties, and Master Feng Tian happened to be on the list."

Bao Zheng took the paper, shook it open and looked at Huangfu Nan, "Flower viewing party?"

Huangfu Nan nodded, "But that's not a real flower viewing party, it's just a way for these people to have fun."

Bao Zheng frowned when he saw the names on the list.

Zhan Zhao said: "The deceased, whether it's the top four or the newly added deceased, seem to be regular visitors to these flower viewing parties."

Bao Zheng handed the list to Gongsun Ce next to him, asking him to circulate it to everyone in the room after reading it.

"Is this list real?" Bao Zheng asked.

Huangfu Nan sighed softly with a smile, "If I said that I was skeptical before, then I should really believe it now."

Bao Zheng frowned, and then ordered Wang Chao and Ma Han, "Go and investigate Mr. Feng's matter quickly to see if he had the same experience as the previous deceased."

Wang Chao and Ma Han stepped forward, clasped their fists together, and took the order to leave.

Gongsun Ce looked at the backs of Wang Chao and Ma Han and said with a soft sigh: "The world is going down, people's hearts are not old."

Bao Zheng sat on the seat, his expression pondering, "If the list is true, we can assign people to keep an eye on these people. If there is any movement from the murderer, we can wait for the opportunity to act. But there are too many people on the list, if they all follow them secretly, Not realistic."

Zhan Zhao pondered for a moment, then said: "So far, all the officials who have been killed are above the fourth rank. Even if there are no officials, the elders in the family are already above the fourth rank."

Huangfu Nan: "Perhaps this is the murderer's preference in choosing the dead, starting with the highest and most important person." That's right, she walked to the blackboard and made notes next to the head portrait on the blackboard according to the information given by Bao Zheng , After writing it all out, everyone present was silent.

Sure enough, I guessed right, the dead are arranged from the first one, and the official positions are arranged in order from high to low.

Zhan Zhao looked at Huangfu Nan, raised his sword eyebrows slightly, and his eyes showed appreciation without hesitation.

Gongsun Ce took a step forward and said, "Since this is the case, then we only need to pick out the people on the list and sort them according to their official positions and importance in order to guess who will be the next one selected by them. people?"

Huangfu Nan nodded, "It stands to reason that it is so."

Bao Zheng: "Since this is the case, there is no need to delay, Mr. Gongsun, you should first mark the officials in the court on the list, and the rest are not officials in the court, so let Zhang Long and Zhao Hu go to find out their family background. After finishing speaking, he turned to Zhan Zhao and Huang Fu Nan, "You two are also tired, go back and rest first."

Huangfu Nan nodded, and was about to turn around and leave when he bewilderedly remembered about Fang Jie, "Brother Yi, I need your help with something."

Bao Zheng was very surprised by what Huangfu Nan said. This righteous sister has never asked him anything. Recently, she has been working hard on the case, and she is no less relaxed than Wang Chao, Ma Han and other bears.When Bao Zheng thought of this, he felt an urgent need to make amends in his heart, and it was rare to show some tenderness. Even though there was no brother-sister love on his black face, the tenderness in his voice was very obvious: "To righteousness Brother, do you still need to ask? As long as you say it, I will do my best for you."

Zhan Zhao: "..." Although what your lord said is normal, why does it sound so weird to him.And, enduring the weirdness in his heart, he cast a sympathetic look at Mr. Bao: Sir, you are about to be tricked.

Sure enough, Master Bao's face darkened when he heard Huangfu Nan's request.Mr. Bao's face was already very dark, and if it was even darker, he would just stand like a pile of coals.

"You and Fang Jieyi married Jinlan? And, you want to help him escape from Fengyue Tower?" Bao Zheng asked with some uncertainty.

Huangfu Nan covered up a yawn, feeling that he could not hold on any longer, but Bao Zheng hadn't responded to the matter, so he desperately raised his spirits, but his sanity had already begun to lose control, and his voice was faintly nasal, "Yes, Yi Brother, there are many capable people around you, and there must be a way to help him. In fact, I can also come out on my own. Anyway, when my sister-in-law went to the palace to meet the Queen Mother last time, the Queen Mother asked her to bring back some gadgets for me. The thing is very weird, and it will probably bring you a lot of money if you sell it. It’s just that if I do that, it’s a bit ostentatious.”

Bao Zheng was speechless, turned his head to look at Zhan Zhao, and said clearly, "I'll trust her to you, and then you're going to make her get used to the house."

Zhan Zhao met Master Bao's gaze, and smiled wryly.

if not?

He hasn't won the beauty's heart yet, so if he doesn't get used to her in Fang Jiewa, why should he go against her? !

Seeing Zhan Zhao's appearance, Bao Zheng felt helpless, then looked at Huangfu Nan who was already in a state of depression, and readily agreed.

"Okay, let me handle this matter, you go back to the house early to rest."

"Thank you brother Yi!"
