The collector of Hogwarts
Chapter 77
Keqing's arrival made the air quiet.
The expressions on everyone's faces were unclear.
As for the "culprit" Zhongli, he sat and drank tea without saying a word.
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Xiuyuan didn't speak either.
Keqing said again, "This matter is related to the whole of Liyue, and if the Honorary Knights are willing to help, Liyue will be grateful!"
Xiu Yuan didn't answer, just looked at Zhongli and asked, "Zhongli, you are erudite and talented, what do you think the truth of this matter should be?"
Paimon and Ying couldn't help but look at Zhongli and asked in unison, "Yes, Zhongli, what do you think?"
Zhongli: "......"
Before he could speak, Ke Qing continued: "The assassination of the emperor is only difficult for ordinary people to find out. Although Zhongli Keqing has a reputation for erudition, I think only the Honorary Knight can investigate this matter. "
Keqing's tone was firm, and she had a great intention of not giving up until she found out who the murderer was.
Xiu Yuan smiled.
Seeing Zhongli's calm face, he couldn't help but want to tease him.
Thinking about it like this, Xiu Yuan pretended to be ready to take the props.
Before he could put his hand in his pocket, he was held by Zhongli.
Xiuyuan: "???"
Quickly pulled out his hand.
At this moment, Zhong left his mouth: "Zhongli is presumptuous, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to say to Yu Hengxing." "
Zhongli Keqing had something to say. "Keqing is a serious way.
Zhongli said without changing his face, "I've heard Yu Hengxing say that it is the human beings themselves who have survived Liyue through a thousand years, but the Emperor who is high above has to intervene in everything. Thinking that Yu Hengxing said this, he was also a little dissatisfied with the emperor's control, since this is the case, it should be a good thing for the emperor to fall in Yu Hengxing now. "
Keqing was stunned.
Keqing didn't know Zhongli's identity.
She only knew that Zhongli was a guest in the Hall of the Dead.
A guest secretary of the Afterlife Hall actually said such a big rebellion.
If it were the other Liyue Seven Stars, it would not be impossible for Zhongli to be convicted of "offense" because of his words.
But Keqing doesn't do that.
After all, she is a frank person.
She had said that, so she didn't dare to admit it.
"I said that. But no matter how much I am dissatisfied with the Emperor, I will never allow anyone to hurt the Emperor!" Ke Qing said very seriously.
Zhongli asked unhurriedly: "But Yu Hengxing also knows that it is not ordinary people who can hurt the emperor, it is Qixing who has found the murderer, how to deal with it?!"
As soon as these words came out, Ke Qing hesitated.
Oh, yes.
Emperors are gods.
Those who can assassinate the emperor are only afraid that their strength is similar to that of the emperor.
Even if the killer is found, how should Liyue Seven Stars solve it?
Liyue Seven Stars are just humans, so how should they fight against the gods?
Thinking of this, Keqing was silent.
"Now that the emperor has fallen, the people are panicking. Other countries will soon receive news that there may be action. Have the Seven Stars of Liyue figured out how to face the other gods?!"
Zhongli spoke again.
In fact, there is truth in his words.
Now that the Emperor has been assassinated, it's normal for Liyue Seven Stars to be anxious to find the killer.
Rather than finding the murderer, how to deal with other countries' coveting of the godless Liyue should be the most important thing at the moment.
It's just that Keqing is still quite stubborn.
"Although Zhongli Keqing's words make sense, the assassination of the Emperor is a major matter, and whether or not we can deal with this murderer is something we should consider. The Emperor can't be assassinated for no reason, and the Seven Stars of Liyue can't turn a blind eye to this matter, we must know who the murderer is. Keqing said seriously.
Zhongli: "......"
Okay, now it's a lot of fun.
It seems that Keqing is not going to give up investigating the murderer.
Zhongli was silent and took a sip of tea helplessly.
"Honorary Knight, please also go and assist us in our investigation. Keqing asked again.
Xiuyuan is happy.
After thinking about it, he said, "Since Yu Hengxing's wish is to find the murderer of the rock god, it concerns the whole of Liyue. Then I'll take a trip with Yu Hengxing. "
"Thank you. Keqing said thank you seriously.
As soon as the words fell, Paimon said, "Paimon wants to go and see it too." "
Ying couldn't help but say, "I want to go and see it too." "
After all, the two really want to know what will happen in the end.
You won't really confess Zhongli.
Seeing that a few people were so curious, Xiu Yuan said: "Then let's go and have a look together, is Zhongli Keqing free?"
Zhongli said expressionlessly: "It's okay, I just have a little time." "
Now that Iwajin has been assassinated, the scene has been completely sealed off by the Millelith Army.
It stands to reason that it is inconvenient for many outsiders to go.
But now that Xiuyuan has spoken.
Ke Qing thought for a while and said, "Since you are a friend of the honorary knight, then let's go together." "
Afterwards, everyone went to the scene of the immortal ceremony again.
Along the way, everyone didn't say a word all the way.
To each his own heart.
Keqing, who was kept in the dark, was still very serious and serious at this time.
"Honorary knight, I heard that when the emperor was assassinated, you were on the invitation to the immortal ceremony. I don't know if you see any clues?" Keqing asked.
"It happened suddenly, and I didn't pay attention. Xiu Yuan replied calmly.
Keqing seemed to understand, after all, this matter was indeed a bit sudden.
After thinking about it, Ke Qing asked, "Then do you have a way to help us find the real culprit?!"
"Let's go to the site first. Xiu Yuan said with a smile.
Ke Qing didn't say anything more, and continued to go to the scene of the Immortal Ceremony.
After arriving at the scene of the Immortal Ceremony, everyone noticed that the scene had been blocked by the Millelith Army.
Except for Keqing and a few of them, the other seven stars were not present.
I guess I'm going to take care of something else.
As for the corpse of the "rock god", it seems that it is not here anymore.
"This is the scene of the emperor's murder. Ke Qing pointed to the messy scene and said, "The emperor's immortal body has been placed in a safe place by us, if you want to check it, I can also take you there." "
Xiu Yuan smiled and said, "Don't be so troublesome. And it's not me who investigates, it's Yuhengxing who investigates. "
"I'm investigating?!" Keqing frowned and hurriedly said, "I've already investigated, and I can't see any clues." "
Xiu Yuan didn't say anything, just took out the props.
A hat and a magnifying glass.
He handed the two items to Keqing.
Keqing was a little strange, so she asked, "What is this?"
Xiu Yuan smiled and said: "This is my prop, this is called the reasoning cap, which can improve the wearer's reasoning ability." This is called an associative reasoning magnifying glass. As long as you think about the case and look at the magnifying glass, a hint about the case will appear. With these two things, Keqing will be able to investigate the truth. "
Prop?!
"I've heard that the props of the Honorary Knight are always powerful, and there are many props. It's just that I didn't expect the props of the Honorary Knight to look quite unpretentious. Keqing couldn't help but mutter.
She didn't quite understand whether a hat and a magnifying glass were really that magical.
But after all, she wanted to be personally invited, and she investigated all morning without any clues.
What if Xiuyuan's props can really help her find clues to write.
After thinking about it, Keqing still took it.
Follow Xiuyuan's instructions.
Keqing puts on her hat and will use a magnifying glass to start searching for clues at the scene.
Watching Keqing investigate the scene very seriously.
Paimon was nervous.
"Xiuyuan. Keqing wouldn't find out if Zhongli had assassinated the rock god, would he?"
Xiu Yuan smiled and muttered in a low voice: "Zhongli is Zhongli, and the rock god is the rock god." They are two people. "
Paimon was a little confused.
Isn't Zhongli the rock god?!
Just as he was puzzled, Ke Qing suddenly spoke: "I know the truth!"
For a while, everyone looked at Keqing in unison.
The look is different.
Zhongli also seemed to be curious about what truth Keqing had investigated. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
So he asked, "Yu Hengxing already has the answer in his heart?!"
Ke Qing nodded, and analyzed it as seriously as a detective: "According to the situation at the scene, there is no other elemental power except for the power of the rock element. So the murderer used the rock element. However, the rock god's control of the rock element is very powerful, and there is no one in the entire Teyvat continent. This also means that there seems to be no such thing as assassination......!!The emperor was not assassinated!!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone became nervous.
Paimon couldn't help but ask tentatively, "At that moment, how did the rock god die?"
Keqing frowned and said, "I already have the answer in my heart, but this answer makes me feel a little incredible. "
"What is it?" asked Xiuyuan.
"The emperor was not assassinated, he committed suicide!" Keqing said very seriously.
Everyone: "......"
They were all stunned.
looked at Xiuyuan.
Xiuyuan is not surprised.
After all, according to the reasoning, it will indeed be such a result.
The emperor carefully arranged the scene of the "suicide".
Therefore, without knowing the real situation, the conclusion drawn will also be that the rock god "committed suicide".
Why can't I find Zhongli there?
"According to the proof, the conclusion that can be drawn is that the emperor committed suicide, I can't find any evidence of assassination, but why did the emperor commit suicide?"
At this time, the expression on her face was very puzzled, as if she was thinking something.
"Now that Yu Hengxing has got the answer, I think it should be so. Xiu Yuan didn't say anything, just replied calmly.
"It's incredible. Keqing muttered.
If it weren't for the result that he personally speculated, Keqing would never have imagined it. []
The murderer who has been looking for so long is actually the emperor himself?!
After all, look at the traces of the scene, all kinds of evidence and so on.
The only plausible explanation that can be drawn seems to be the answer of the emperor's "suicide".
"Now that Yu Hengxing already knows the truth, then presumably your wish should have been fulfilled. Xiuyuan asked with a smile.
Keqing nodded, and then returned the item.
There was still a bit of disbelief on her face.
After Xiuyuan retrieved the props, she seemed to have figured out everything.
"If the emperor commits suicide, there are only two possibilities, either he will ascend or he will fail...... "Keqing muttered.
"The rock god is a god, and it is normal for immortals to cross the tribulation and ascend. Xiuyuan agreed.
Indeed, there is a saying of immortals in the country of Liyue.
There is also a saying that the catastrophe is ascending.
What's more, it has also been recorded in the past history.
Some gods will fly to a higher place, the "Isle of Sky", and become gods.
If you think about it this way, it seems reasonable.
After all, who has the power to kill the emperor.
"The truth of this matter is beyond my expectations, but I am very grateful for the help of the Honorary Knights. I'll give it to you before I get paid. For the time being, I need to inform the other Seven Stars about this, and then discuss what should be done in the future. Keqing said, and then left in a hurry.
After she left, a mechanical voice sounded in Xiuyuan's ears:
[Ding, congratulations to the host, complete Keqing's wish.] 】
[Template unlock value +1%]
"'~ Awesome. As soon as the voice ended, Zhongli spoke: "You not only let Keqing know the truth, but also concealed the matter for me. This is really powerful. "
Xiu Yuan smiled and said, "Don't you think that I really want to send you to prison with my own hands?!"
Zhongli smiled faintly and said, "I know you won't, but I really didn't expect you to do this." That's fine, I was still thinking about how to tell them the truth when this matter is over, but now that you have let Keqing know the truth, it saves me from dreaming. "
Paimon on the side understood the situation and said excitedly, "I understand." Because the truth is that the rock god committed suicide, no matter how you reason, the murderer will be the rock god. That's why Xiuyuan, you will say that Zhongli is Zhongli, and the rock god is the rock god, right? "
"Yes. Xiuyuan nodded.
"You're so smart, Paimon just thought Zhongli was going to be wanted!!" Paimon said quickly.
Thinking that the matter was now settled, Xiu Yuan smiled and said, "Okay, now that the matter has been resolved." Let's get out of here. "
A few people nodded, and walked towards the streets of Liyue.
Seeing that it was already noon, several people planned to go to dinner.
Unexpectedly, when walking on the street, several people suddenly bumped into Childe.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here~" As soon as he saw a few people, Childe greeted him warmly.
Everyone looked at each other, and the expressions on their faces were wonderful.
After all, everyone knows that they don't speak at all and happen to bump into each other.
Instead, Childe is probably waiting here.
But Childe had amnesia after all, and he didn't notice anything wrong at all.
"Where are you going~~" Childe asked with a smile.
Zhongli replied expressionlessly, "Eat." "
"It just so happens that I'm hungry too, I'm in for a treat, let's go have a meal together?" Childe smiled and invited everyone.
The wallet delivered to the door, don't be in vain.
Thinking about it like this, everyone didn't postpone it, and followed Childe to Xinyue Xuan.
In the box of Xinyue Xuan, everyone began to talk.
"Xiuyuan, Ying, a few of you are here to invite the Immortal Ceremony today, right?!" asked Childe with a smile on his face.
"Yes. Xiuyuan nodded.
"Looks like you already know that the rock god has been assassinated. Childe said as he poured the tea.
The crowd nodded.
"Speaking of which, the rock god is one of the strongest of the seven gods, and it is really curious that he will be assassinated. Xiuyuan, aren't you curious about this matter?" Childe continued to ask, intentionally or unintentionally.
At this time, he didn't seem to know that he had fallen into Zhongli's trap.
Seeing that he was so interested, Zhongli replied lightly: "It is indeed very curious. "
Childe smiled, and then asked Xiuyuan, "Xiuyuan, you are so powerful, now that the rock god has been assassinated, I think Liyue Qixing should ask you to investigate this matter, right?!"
"Yu Hengxing has just been here, and we went to the scene to investigate together. Xiuyuan replied with a smile.
Just been here?!
Childe was stunned for a moment, it seemed that he had guessed well.
Thinking about it like this, Childe asked with great concern: "Is that a result?!"
Xiu Yuan didn't say anything.
Zhongli on the side began to set up a trap for the son.
"The matter is still under investigation. Zhongli replied calmly.
Childe smiled, then said nonchalantly, "I've heard that the Rock God is the Ancestor of the Immortals, and there is a Immortal Ancestor Dharma in Liyue. If you can find the immortal body of the rock god, maybe you can know who killed and assassinated the rock god. "
In fact, whether it is Zhongli or Xiuyuan, it is very clear.
Childe's purpose is to find Zhongli's immortal body and then seize the heart of the gods.
Childe was originally part of Zhongli's plan.
So at this time, Zhongli spoke unhurriedly: "We did go to the Golden House just now to investigate the immortal body of the rock god, but we haven't reached a conclusion yet. "
Golden House?!
The immortal body of the rock god is hidden in the Golden House?!
Childe was stunned.
He didn't know that Zhongli was deliberately tricking him, and thought that he had really gotten the news.
Thinking about it like this, Gongzi said perfunctorily: "Thinking about it, there is Xiuyuan, and the matter will be investigated clearly." "
But by this time, he was already planning to go to the Golden House to find the Heart of God.
So after that, halfway through the meal.
Childe left under the pretext that something was wrong.
When Childe arrived at the Golden House, he found that the Heart of God was not in it at all.
He was cheated again.
