Chapter 290 Assassination of Suzaku!(1/2)
It was cold in the morning, and the window was shrouded in a dark blue gray area.
Bai Xianyu, who woke up from the couch, relaxed her waist and slid down with the thin quilt. The delicate white snow shoulders were as beautiful as jade.
Dress, wash, and eat a beautiful breakfast made.
She is in a good mood.
Her transparent cheeks were blushing like crabapple.
Qingluo lay weakly on the table, holding the chopsticks, casually pulling the cucumber slices in the plate in front of her, like a lazy cat.
“Didn’t have a good rest last night?”
Bai Xianyu glanced at her beautiful eyes and asked indifferently.
Next to her was a carrot in a red dress, eating sweet pastries, with some cake crumbs on her pink lips.
"I miss my brother-in-law. I dreamed that my brother-in-law played with me to catch loaches last night."
The little girl narrowed her beautiful eyes.
Bai Xianyu took a sip of the soup with red lips and said casually: "I will let my husband marry you after returning to Beijing."
“Oh…ah??”
The originally listless little girl instantly stood up, her beautiful eyes widened like a copper bell: "Sister, what did you say?"
"It's nothing, hurry up and have a meal."
Bai Xianyu picked up a piece of pastry and handed it to the carrot next to him. He touched the girl's soft black hair and said with a smile. "It's better to be good to Xiaoluo. When you go back, you will let your husband marry you."
Carrot blinked and continued to eat pastry.
In her eyes, Chen Mu will only be attractive to her unless he becomes delicious.
Qingluo's rosy little mouth pouted, full of resentment: "Sister, my brother-in-law has never dared to touch me, because you blocked me, you can't eat alone."
“Ha~”
Bai Xianyu's beautiful eyes with charming charm appeared a little sarcastic. "Your brother-in-law is flying outside with colorful flags. Have I blocked it? If you don't do your best, who can you blame?"
"sister……"
Qingluo sat next to Bai Xianyu, buried her little head in the other party's soft and fragrant chest, and said in a coquettish tone. "Brother-in-law is really afraid of you, why don't you... talk to me, I'll make some toys for you then."
"Not interested, you can take it yourself."
A few red clouds flew out from Bai Xianyu's cheeks, and he pushed the little girl away and said coldly.
Qingluo's little face collapsed.
But after looking at his sister Zhu Luo who was eating pastries, he muttered, "But the same is true if my brother-in-law married Zhu Luo, I can experience it anyway."
...
After breakfast, put on the familiar black robe and Suzaku mask, Bai Xianyu brought the guards of the Suzaku Hall to the desk warehouse of the government office.
She wants to investigate the headless case two years ago.
The guards of the document warehouse naturally did not dare to stop them. After secretly reporting to the prefect, they let Bai Xianyu and a group of Mingwei go in.
"Look carefully and find out all the cases related to the headless corpse case two years ago."
Bai Xianyu ordered.
In less than twenty minutes, the Vermilion Bird Hall Mingwei found the Case Sect two years ago.
Put the old file on the table and Bai Xianyu looked down at it.
According to the file, it was April. First, a concubine from a wealthy family was found dead in the backyard. Later, disciples of the sect were killed, homeless people, ordinary farmers, etc.
Without exception, all of the dead were beheaded.
There were nine dead in total.
Later, the government took five days to catch the murderer.
The murderer was named Ma Luozi, who was a fleeing thief. He was a vicious and holy person who was horrified, but he had always been very cunning to escape the pursuit of the government.
After committing the crime, I was going to escape, but I was accidentally discovered by the patrol captain.
Being captured during the fierce battle.
After reading it carefully several times, Bai Xianyu gently closed the file, and gently stroked the paper with a slight musty smell, falling into deep thought.
Although she is not as smart as Chen Mu, she still has some basic case judgments.
From the perspective of the case, there is no problem.
But after thinking about it carefully, you will find that the case was handled a bit too simple. It was obviously a big case, but it felt like the case was closed easily.
Bai Xianyu then found Ma Xuanzi's confession.
The confession simply tells the process of killing oneself, which is to chop the head with a knife, and the purpose of Ma Luzi's murder is because of unhappiness.
All the dead were cut off their heads, and all the dead were left-handed.
As a result, the murderer in the confession said that he killed someone because he was unhappy, and he felt very perfunctory no matter how he looked at it.
"Dangdang..."
The door of the document warehouse was suddenly knocked.
The prefect Du Piwu came in.
He glanced at the Zhuquetang Nether Guards who were searching for the Case Sect, then his eyes fell on Bai Xianyu and squeezed out a smile:
"Mr. Zhuque, are you..."
"Investigate a case."
Bai Xianyu waved the file in his hand and said lightly. "The headless case that happened in Dongzhou two years ago."
A strange color suddenly surged in Du Piwu's eyes.
He pretended to be confused and thought for a while, and after a while, he suddenly said: "It turned out to be that case. I wonder why Lord Zhuque suddenly wanted to investigate that case. Could it be..."
Du Piwu patted his forehead and suddenly said, "By the way, the recent headless case is very similar."
Bai Xianyu said lightly: "Why did Lord Du not remind me before?"
Du Piwu showed helplessness: "Mr. Zhuque, it's no wonder that he was given a rank. The case two years ago has been closed and has been left behind. Who would have thought that the case is related to it now? Besides... the murderer of the headless case is very clear, it is the headless general."
He looked at the file in the woman's hand, and a disdain flashed through his eyes:
"What Lord Zhuque has to do now should be to catch the headless general of the resentful spirit as soon as possible, rather than wasting time to check this and that. In addition, has Lord Zhuque found my wife's body?"
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Bai Xianyu narrowed her beautiful phoenix eyes.
The guards who were searching for the Case Sect all stopped and stared at Du Piwu without blinking.
The atmosphere in the room became colder.
Du Piwu waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "The official is not intentionally making things difficult for Lord Zhuque, but why waste time if you are obviously doing it. In addition, I really hope Lord Zhuque can find my wife's body as soon as possible."
After saying that, Du Piwu left the document library.
Bai Xianyu's eyes were cold.
He looked down at the headless case file and ordered lightly: "Ask other officials in the government office and inquire about the people by the way to see if anyone knows about this case."
"clear."
The guards nodded one after another.
...
Du Piwu left the document library and returned to his house with a gloomy face.
Locking himself in the study room and paced back and forth alone.
The expression was sometimes anxious, sometimes mocking, and sometimes fell into a concentrating expression of thinking.
After a while, the door of the house made a "rattle" sound, and then closed it hard, but there was a mysterious man in the gray robe in the room.
"This bitch is a bit powerful. I don't know where I learned about the case two years ago."
Du Piwu's face was as gloomy as ink.
"How are you going to deal with it?" The man in the gray robe's cold and weird voice was particularly hoarse and sharp.
Seeing Du Piwu's expression was unstable, the man in gray robe said lightly: "Find a chance and kill her."
"What are you kidding!"
Du Piwu glared at him, "This is the Suzaku Envoy. If there is any problem, the Empress Dowager will definitely expose the entire Dongzhou City!"
The man in gray robe sneered: "If she keeps going like this, you and I will finish it too. Just do it and take the risk first."
Du Piwu fell into a struggle inside.
Finally, he nodded: "Okay, you can give it a try."
