"In the end, Mr. Wan didn't expect that Miss Qin was an unusual person and could do magic. Mr. Wan said that he saw a white light and then lost consciousness. When he woke up, he was already lying on the street."
After listening to Cui Yueyi's words, Zhu Bowen looked at Lin Xiaodong and said, "I didn't expect that Miss Xu's guess was right."
Lin Xiaodong also nodded: "If it is really the work of heretics, it is not difficult to control a man quietly.
Maybe this Miss Qin is selling her art but not her body, and the business in the show building is just a cover, but what she is doing behind the scenes is practicing sorcery."
Zhu Bowen looked solemn: "If I had known this, I should have invited Mr. Liu to come."
"Sir, Miss Xu is also from Si Tianjian, and Lin also knows some alchemy. It shouldn't be a problem to deal with this person."
Lin Xiaodong said.
"Okay, then let's go back and ask Lu Jingqi to take the officers and soldiers to meet Miss Qin, just in case."
Lin Xiaodong followed Zhu Bowen back to the guest house, where everyone was there.
Zheng Wenshan reported: "Sir, the people in the restaurant only said that Du Weizhao drank with a few friends and left in the middle of the night. He disappeared on the road."
Lu Jingqi said: "Sir, Du Weizhao is addicted to Yanliu Lane and has always looked down upon women from good families. There are not many women he is familiar with. Their friendship is very shallow, and they are not capable of killing people."
Nodding, Zhu Bowen said: "It doesn't matter, Mr. Lin and I have found out some clues."
"There is a Qin Huayue in Ruanxiang Pavilion who knows the art of heresy. The boss of Manchunyuan said that the son of the richest man in the city was hit by this trick. As soon as his eyesight turned white, he lost consciousness. When he woke up, he was already lying on the bed.
On the street.”
"Such a spell is perfect for kidnapping someone in the middle of the night."
"If the alchemists are causing trouble, we should invite Mr. Liu, Si Tianjian, to come."
Zheng Wenshan looked at Xu Siyi.
Lin Xiaodong also looked over and said, "Miss Xu is from Si Tianjian."
Zhu Bowen nodded and said: "Miss Xu, we are going to interrogate Qin Huayue. If she is arrested or escapes, we have to ask you to restrain her."
"The power of Protector Lin is far superior to mine, so there is no need for me to show my shame."
He was talking about Lin Xiaodong, but Xu Siyi didn't look at him.
Hearing Xu Siyi say that Lin Xiaodong's magic power was higher than hers, Zhu Bowen unexpectedly turned around and re-examined Lin Xiaodong. After all, Xu Siyi was Liu Guangyao's apprentice.
Zheng Wenshan didn't quite believe it and asked, "Lin Duhu also knows alchemy?"
"I understand a little bit."
Squinting her eyes, Xu Siyi snorted, with a hint of sarcasm: "Master Lin is a proficient stargazer, even my master can't compare to him, you want to catch the murderer?
It’s better to ask him directly.”
"Even Master Liu is not as good as him?"
Zhu Bowen tilted his head and stared.
Zheng Wenshan thought it was ridiculous and spread his hands and said: "If the murderer can be directly calculated, what else will our Supervision Department do?"
With that said, he turned around and asked Lin Xiaodong provocatively: "Can you really count?
Then do the math, who did this case?
Where is the murderer?"
Seeing Zheng Wenshan being so arrogant, Lin Xiaodong pretended not to see it and said calmly: "I have already settled this matter before it started. There are too many interferences and I can't figure it out."
"Huh, handling cases relies on evidence, intuition and experience!"
Zheng Wenshan rolled his eyes.
"It turns out that Mr. Lin is as expert as Miss Xu. In that case, let's set off now to meet Miss Qin. Mr. Lu, please arrange for two hundred officers and soldiers, just in case."
Lu Jingqi mobilized two hundred officers and soldiers, and the group went to Ruanxiang Pavilion with great momentum.
It was already afternoon at this time, and soon it was the most popular time of the show. The Ruanxiang Pavilion was full of flowers and colorful clothes, and the sight of officers and soldiers was so frightening that they closed the doors and windows tightly.
Kong Menglan, the owner of Ruanxiang Pavilion, came out. She was a woman in her forties with a fat belly. She was trembling: "Sir, what's going on? Are you going to start a big fight?
This beautiful building of mine is a legal business and is run honestly!"
Lu Jingqi waved her hand: "I'm not here for you. Let me ask you, where is Qin Huayue?"
When she heard that she was here to see Qin Huayue, Kong Menglan patted her chest several times: "Oh, oh, you're scared to death! She's on the third floor! I'll take you there right now!"
Kong Menglan took Lin Xiaodong and others upstairs, while officers and soldiers surrounded Xiulou.
The house on the third floor was the most gorgeously decorated. Kong Menglan came to the largest room and knocked on the door: "Miss Qin?
Some officials want to come and talk to you."
Looking at Kong Menglan, Zhu Bowen was alert: "Why is this boss so polite to the girl in his building?"
"Who?"
An angry voice came from the room, saying that a man's beautiful business had been interrupted. He opened the door, and standing in the door was a young man covered in brocade and satin.
This man was Zheng Derong, a famous young man in the city, who was also a frequent visitor to Qin Huayue. He paid a lot of money to watch the beautiful woman dance and took the opportunity to show his favor, but Qin Huayue was as cold as ice and unmoved. After several calculations, he failed.
"Zhu Bowen, the manager of the Supervision Department, would like to have a few words with Miss Qin."
Zhu Bowen showed off his credentials.
"It turns out to be the Master of the Supervision Department, please leave now!"
As soon as he heard that he was a high official, Zheng Derong turned around, packed his things, and ran away with his tail between his legs.
"What do these officials want to do with this little girl?"
There was a translucent screen erected in the room. Lin Xiaodong leaned forward and looked, and could faintly see a delicate figure inside. Qin Huayue walked out from behind the screen with a jingling ring.
Lin Xiaodong looked carefully. She was wearing a pink robe, a white skirt inside, a pair of red embroidered shoes, a bun with hanging clouds on her head, red silver pearl pendants in her ears, pink face, red lips, and especially a pair of almond eyes, which were dark and pure.
It is so clear that it is bottomless, and its figure is also slender and straight, which is rare in the world.
Such beauty made all the men present lose their minds. There was silence for a while, and it was awkward for a moment. Zhu Bowen came back to his senses and asked: "Are you Qin Huayue?"
"My little daughter, Mrs. Qin, has met several adults."
Qin Huayue knelt down and worshiped.
Lin Xiaodong came back to his senses and raised his hand to Qin Huayue: "Miss Qin, I've always heard that you have impressive dancing skills. I came here today and wanted to experience it. I don't know if I have such a good eye."
Zhu Bowen turned around and raised his eyebrows at Lin Xiaodong, thinking: "You are quite good at it!"
Zheng Wenshan on the side also pursed his lips and suppressed a smile when he heard what Lin Xiaodong said, trying to take advantage of others.
"Thank you for your consideration, sir. Please come in."
After taking a few steps back, Qin Huayue invited a few people in.
Kong Menglan stood outside the door, not daring to come in. She stuck her head out and looked inside the door. She didn't say anything and closed the door.
Zhu Bowen, Lu Jingqi, Zheng Wenshan, Lin Xiaodong, and Xu Siyi took their seats one after another. Qin Huayue asked: "Sir, what dance do you want to see?"
Lin Xiaodong was not familiar with this place, but Zheng Wenshan was familiar with it, so he said: "Please invite Miss Qin to perform a Jinghong Dance!"
With a light nod, Qin Huayue turned behind the screen and said, "Several adults, wait a moment."
Across the screen, Qin Huayue dropped her robe to the floor and began to change clothes.
Zheng Wenshan was restless in excitement, rubbing his hands while watching.
