Gu Qi's case-solving manuscript

Chapter 55

Gu Qi was stunned for a moment, and a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face.

He was thinking about how to explain it in his heart, but he only saw Xu Yihua staring at him directly, with a sense of not giving up until he reached his goal.

After clearing his throat, Gu Qi had no choice but to briefly explain what happened at that time, and took out a note from his pocket to unfold: "I suspected that something was wrong with Zhao's family, but now Liu Sanniang is willing to take the initiative to help us. Confused."

It turned out that this note was given to him by Liu Sanniang when she pretended to fall and fell into his arms. There were only a few beautiful small characters written on the note: "Third Watch, Lu's Medical Center."

Several people pretended nothing happened, and went back to the room together, Xu Yihua showed worry and said: "I'm afraid there will be fraud."

Gu Qi nodded and said, "I'm also worried about this."

"But I don't think that Liu Sanniang is a bad person." Hui Qi shrank his head.

"Many people look kind and friendly, but they are actually murderers who killed more than a dozen people in a row." Gu Qi asked, "For example, look at me, do I look like a bad guy?"

"Like...?" Hui Qi said like without hesitation, but quickly changed his words in the face of Gu Qi's fierce expression, and said flatteringly, "It doesn't look like it, Mr. Gu has kind eyebrows and kind eyes, just like Living Bodhisattva!"

"Actually, my heart is also like this, so sometimes people have to look at their appearance, but sometimes people can't just look at their appearance." Gu Qi said frankly, "You have been with us for a long time, and I don't know this yet. ?"

Hui Qi nodded frantically like a chicken pecking at rice, for fear that he would be beaten up by Gu Qi if he said something late.

"But in Zhao's house, Liu Sanniang seems to be different from Zhao Si." Gu Qi rubbed his chin, and then continued, "When I spoke to Zhao Si at the beginning, Zhao Si didn't want me to see Liu Sanniang, probably because he was worried. Liu Sanniang said something to me, and later became nervous after Liu Sanniang appeared. It seems that Liu Sanniang and Zhao Si are not in the same group. It’s just that I am more surprised, since they are not in the same group, why do they have to go with Zhao Si? Lying to me together?"

Xu Yihua guessed: "Maybe it was because it was inconvenient at the time... Or maybe someone was watching the Zhao family, someone threatened them?"

"If it's a threat, it's impossible for Zhao Si to be nervous but not at all scared. I guess, someone bought him." Gu Qi analyzed slowly, "That's why he overturned his previous confession and lied about it." Said that Zhao Qing is not dead."

"If that's the case, then there shouldn't be any conspiracy involved." Xu Yihua frowned lightly.

"At the third watch, it seems that we still have to go to this Lu's Medical Center to meet her and listen to what she has to say."

"I'll go tonight." Xu Yihua said.

Gu Qi frowned, somewhat disapproving.

"I have martial arts, so this trip is safe. You and Huiqi are here, so you can cover up a thing or two." Xu Yihua's attitude was firm.

"Forget it." Gu Qi nodded. At present, it seems that this is the best choice. After all, Xu Yihua has the ability to protect himself outside. If Gu Qi is outside, he has little ability to protect himself.

After the few people finished talking in this room, a little maid came in from outside, and said respectfully: "Master Imperial Envoy, our lord has already prepared meals, and I would like to invite you to come over and have a taste."

"Now?"

"Yes, Your Excellency is already waiting for you in the front hall."

Xu Yihua coughed a few times and said: "I feel a little unwell, maybe because I caught the wind and cold last night, so I won't go to have dinner together, it will be bad if I infect you adults."

Gu Qi hurriedly asked with concern: "How about it, do you want me to invite a doctor?"

"Yes, yes, we are the ones who feel distressed when we get sick." Huiqi also looked worried.

The three of them already had a good understanding, and it was the same when they were acting. As soon as Xu Yihua opened his mouth and Gu Qi, the two of them cooperated seamlessly.

"No, it's just a little cold. You go to eat, and I'll just find a medical clinic."

"Alright." Gu Qi nodded, stood up and said to the servant girl, "You lead the way."

As the maid came to the front hall, she saw a lot of people sitting on a table inside, talking in a low voice at this moment, and when they saw Gu Qi coming in, they all stopped talking at the same time.

The faces of these people were more or less familiar to Gu Qi, after all, he had seen them a year ago, and something so profound had happened, no one could forget these faces.

"Hello, my lords." With a smile on his face, Gu Qi bowed his hands in a decent and generous manner to everyone present.

Everyone hurriedly replied, "Hi, Mr. Imperial Envoy."

Gu Qi's eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and he sneered secretly in his heart, very well, it seems that the group of people from back then gathered together again.

Inspector Zhang with a square face and red face, Defense Envoy Liu with a round face and ears, Observer Zheng who always smiles and makes people unable to guess what he is thinking, and Yang Tongpan with a serious face, and Gu Qiye sitting at the bottom Some Qin servants who couldn't see clearly.

The Qin servant is a small official in the state government who specializes in handling documents. He is usually taciturn, but he has a place in front of these people. Gu Qi has little contact with him, but for some reason, he always feels that this person is different from Feng Kejie and the others. Not a gang.

It's just that Gu Qi didn't find out the other party's true thoughts because he only had a few short contacts.

Gu Qi took his seat, Hui Qi stood behind him with lowered eyebrows, the hall was silent.

Most of the people at this table did not welcome Gu Qi, because Gu Qi's arrival meant that the sky in Jeju City would be disturbed again, so everyone kept silent.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Gu Qi got excited instead: "What's the matter, my lords, are you not happy to see this imperial envoy? Everyone is silent. Is it possible that this imperial envoy asks all your lords to speak?"

Observer Zheng narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "My lord, I don't know if your lord has found the old friend that the emperor asked you to find?"

"Not yet."

Zheng Guan made some suggestions: "Then I need to ask the imperial envoy to work harder to find talents, and find them sooner so that the emperor can reunite with his old friends earlier."

Evict people?Gu Qi smiled, and wanted to drive him away now, which is impossible: "This old friend is hidden too deep, and the imperial envoy has spent a lot of effort and still can't find it."

"Huh?" Feng Kejie suddenly let out a sigh at this moment, "My lord, why didn't Mr. Xu come to have dinner?"

Gu Qi said casually: "I don't feel well, I went out to see the doctor."

Feng Kejie and the others looked at each other. Although they were puzzled, they didn't care. It wasn't because they didn't know that Xu Yihua was going out to check for news, but because they believed that they couldn't find anything useful in Jeju City. information.

The people were not at odds with each other. This simple dinner was full of swords and swords, and every sentence contained guns and sticks. It's just that everyone has become a good old fox, and they couldn't get any useful topics out of each other's mouths.

What Feng Kejie and the others were worried about was whether the emperor knew what was going on here. Was sending Gu Qi to Jeju City really looking for old friends or was it just an excuse?Judging from the current situation, the emperor must have known about their small actions in Jeju City, and knew that they had tampered with the coal mines. The point is, how much does the emperor know, whether he knows all of them, or just heard a little bit.

The person above was also puzzled, and for the time being, just let them stand still and wait for his news.

But Feng Kejie had another worry in his heart, and this worry came from Gu Qi.

A year ago, Gu Qi was their defeat, and it should be the same a year later. The only difference is that now they have the emperor to help them out. Not only that, but something happened, that Zhao Si and Liu Sanniang...

If Zhao Si and Liu Sanniang hadn't entered the government office to report the case, Gu Qi would definitely not have discovered the clue so quickly, and it is very likely that he still has not discovered anything now.

"Master Feng." Gu Qi smiled slightly, "I heard that the cell is very lively recently."

Feng Kejie's face remained unchanged. The other party did not hide anything from him when they found out about the prison cell. He naturally knew it clearly: "The lower officials are also very puzzled. If the imperial envoy knows about it, please let me know."

Gu Qi tapped his fingers on the table a few times, and then paused: "Suddenly there are so many prisoners, Mr. Feng must be in a hurry, how about this imperial envoy to share the burden for you?"

Although Feng Kejie was smiling, his heart sank.

"Then it's settled. Tomorrow morning, the imperial envoy will conduct an interrogation in person. It just so happens that the imperial envoy is free. These prisoners, if there is anything wrong, the imperial envoy will not let any of them go!"

Besides, Xu Yihua pretended to be unwell, and after getting rid of the people following him, he calmly found a medical clinic and walked in.

It was not yet the third watch, so he was naturally not in a hurry. He bought some medicines and went back to the government office for a walk. He went back to his room and pretended to rest, but he sneaked out of the yard and sneaked into the Lu's Medical Center. Lying on the beam of the opponent's house, carefully monitoring every move here.

Although he and Gu Qi agreed that there was no danger, but just in case, he still had to observe for a while before speaking.

As the time approached the third watch, the apprentice yawned and closed the door.Only the shopkeeper walked around nervously with a kerosene lamp on, looking at the closed wooden door from time to time.

Just after midnight, there was a knock on the door, and the shopkeeper immediately blew on the lamp and asked, "Who is it?"

Liu Sanniang's low voice came from outside: "It's me, Brother Lu, I'm Liu Sanniang."

Liu Sanniang was wearing a dark cloak to cover herself up. When she came in, she took off the hood and looked around: "Brother Lu, has that man come?"

Shopkeeper Lu shook his head: "Not yet."

Liu Sanniang showed a slightly disappointed expression: "He must think there is a fraud, so he dare not come."

The two stopped talking, and just waited intently. Xu Yihua did not show up, and was still hiding in the dark, observing carefully.

He himself is not afraid of danger, he is only afraid of bringing danger to Gu Qi, so he has to be careful and not make any mistakes.

As time passed, Liu Sanniang's face became more and more anxious. Long Jiu finally got up and said, "Half an hour has passed, and he still hasn't arrived, but I can't wait any longer. I thought he was also very courageous, but I didn't expect But he is also such a cowardly person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!"

At this time, Xu Yihua just jumped lightly from the beam, landed in the air, and said coldly: "I came here for him."

Liu Sanniang was startled at first, but then calmed down: "Why didn't he come?"

"He has other things, what do you want to say, just tell me."

Not knowing whether the person in front of her is trustworthy or not, Liu Sanniang still hesitated.

Xu Yihua said: "Since he trusted me and let me come, you should also trust me."

"Okay!" Liu Sanniang gritted her teeth, reached out her hand to take it out from her bosom, and when she reached out again, she was holding a blue booklet.

Xu Yihua's pupils shrank slightly: "This is?!"

"This is the brochure that records the miners!"
