Lin Chong cursed his stupidity in a low voice and regretted why he didn't bring Mu Xi out with him. At the same time, he also reflected on himself. It made no sense for him, who was so lucky, to find two men to pretend to be women. It was a sin.
It's just that even if something goes against the grain at this point, Lin Chong can only take it up for the time being.
When they went upstairs, Guan Ying whispered to Lin Chong: "Do you have any other suspicions?"
Lin Chong nodded: "I suspect there is more than one flower-picking thief. If you haven't learned martial arts, don't show off. Wang Cheng'en and Guan Qu are right next door to you."
Guan Ying thought for a moment and nodded: "Don't worry, I'm measured."
In addition to Guan Ying and several other people who met in Ling Yiqu's room, Lin Chong also expressed his guess.
"What? More than one? But I haven't heard of these flower pickers coming in groups." Guan Qu was confused.
Ling Yiqu looked serious: "I think this statement is very reasonable. Over the past few days, we have invested a lot of manpower, but a lot of the news we have received is false. Now it seems that it is really difficult for one person to complete so much work.
"
Lin Chong nodded: "That's right, I haven't told you Miss Zhou's identity yet. She is actually the granddaughter of Zhou Tingru, the daughter of a concubine. She has always been ignored, but the so-called wealthy businessmen of the Zhou family can do it so quickly.
There is definitely something wrong with paying attention to her."
"Are you going to say in your next sentence that this Miss Zhou is a pure yin woman born on a yin day in a yin year, that's why you two sang in harmony just now and said that Guanying's birth date is special?" Wang Chengen thought quickly.
"Yes, I guess those people must have a way to detect whether this kind of woman is pure yin. The so-called flower picker is just an illusion to cover up their real and more ulterior purpose."
Ling Yiqu forgot to shake his fan: "Then, what should we do now?" Lin Chong hooked his hand at Wang Chengen: "Find someone to ambush next to the Zhou family. I will definitely take his personal stolen goods today. I think this old thief
What else is there to say?"
Guan Ying, the next step is up to you. I have buried this thread. If these people can't find Zhou Yun, they will definitely try to find another pure yin woman. Let them hear this today, whether it is true or false.
Will come and give it a try.
I just hope my guess is correct this time.
In the evening, after two late-night watchers, the inn was already very quiet.
Guan Ying was lying on his side on the bed. The mess he was wearing was very uncomfortable and he couldn't take it off directly. There were also a bunch of heavy hairpins on his head.
After all, the emperor spent a lot of money, and these hairpins were very expensive and heavy. If a normal woman had the opportunity to wear them, she would be very happy, but Guan Ying wanted to pull them out immediately and crush them on the ground to get rid of the evil in her heart.
After a while, he finally heard rustling sounds, a thin bamboo tube was inserted, and Guan Ying smelled a faint fragrance.
He was already prepared. He picked up the wet handkerchief beside the bed and covered his mouth and nose. At the same time, he lay motionless on the bed and waited for someone to approach.
In the middle of the night, a scream broke the silence in the inn. Lin Chong jumped out immediately when he heard the noise. At the same time, he silently recited his sins in his heart. No one in the inn could sleep again tonight.
Wang Chengen opened the door and saw Guan Ying pointing out the window, giving a concise and powerful reminder: "To the east, there is blood."
Wang Chengen chased out following the blood trail, and Guan Qu stepped in: "Guan Ying, are you not injured? I just heard a scream, it was so loud that I panicked."
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Guan Ying wiping his silver knife leisurely. The silver blade stained with blood blinded Guan Qu's eyes. "This is probably not your blood."
Guan Ying was expressionless: "What do you think?"
Guan Qu: Sister, no, brother, Brother Guan, I was wrong. I will never dare to say anything disrespectful to you again!
Guan Ying didn't say anything. He still smelled the incense just now, and now he was very dizzy.
Guan Qu saw Guan Ying just snorted and was about to fall down, so he quickly caught him: "What's going on? Are you injured?"
Guan Ying wanted to speak, but unfortunately he had no strength at all now and fell asleep directly.
Lin Chong was arranging for Ling Yiqu to mobilize all the people nearby. When he saw Guan Qu holding Guan Ying down, he was shocked: "What's going on? Is he injured?"
Guan Qu shook his head: "I don't know, I fainted."
Ling Yiqu came up and took a look: "Fortunately, he was not injured. It may be that he smelled too much drugs and the like, and his body has no resistance to these things."
Lin Chong was relieved when he heard that no one was injured: "Master Ling, please find someone to send him back first. I will ask the imperial doctor to take a look. He has worked hard today."
The other people in the inn looked at each other. The businessmen passing by had transformed into officers and soldiers catching thieves. Looking at the beautiful young lady, he was still a young lady. Apart from the complicated skirt and hairpin, he was clearly a handsome young man.
No wonder he is so tall and talks so little, and his feelings are fake. The waiter couldn't help but sigh that these adults are really dedicated to solving the case.
With good preparation and the fact that Guan Ying's knife stabbed deeply, Wang Chengen followed the blood trail and chased him to the vicinity of Zhou Mansion.
Zhou Tingru was very dissatisfied when he heard the noise at his door in the middle of the night. Ling Yiqu and Wang Chengen had already asked him seriously to cooperate with the investigation.
A group of wealthy businessmen from Zhou Tingru's family were also invited to Dali Temple as guests. After the unremitting efforts of the Ministry of Punishment and Jin Yiwei, the missing woman was indeed found in a tunnel of Zhou's family.
These women were not able to save their lives because they were not pure Yin girls. When the people from the Ministry of Punishment found them, they had already turned into corpses. Zhou Tingru was also taken to the Ministry of Punishment and imprisoned.
Although he insisted that he had nothing to do with these things, he neither knew the murdered women nor the identities of these wealthy businessmen. He himself was a victim and was deceived. His granddaughter also disappeared.
When Lin Chong heard these words, he almost wanted to laugh. There is really such a serious person in the world who can lie without blushing. He has gained a lot of experience.
Of course, Lin Chong was not worried about these wealthy businessmen not telling the truth about Ying Zai. But the troublesome thing was that Guan Ying was not in good health since he took too many drugs in the inn last time, and his spirit was even worse. Guan Qu
Now I don't dare to appear in his sight at all, for fear that he will remember that she called him sister.
Lin Chong followed Wang Chengen and the others to visit the Zhou family for a while. Thinking about how unlucky the old guy was when he opposed him, and looking at the bleak situation of his family now, he couldn't be happier.
Zhou Yun went back. After all, she couldn't always live outside by herself. However, Lin Chong asked Ling Yiqu to tell her that no matter what the Zhou family's crimes were, she and her mother would be considered victims and would not be investigated and implicated. They had also done their best for this case.
If you make a contribution, your merits are equal to your faults.
No matter how stupid Zhou Yun is, she can guess that Mr. Lin has an unusual identity. Not only is he the young minister of Dali Temple, but also the ministers of Dali Temple are so respectful to his words. What kind of noble person must he be?
