Tang Dynasty detective

The three studied the "lock" of Ouyang's family.

Yen Ziyu picked up the pen and pondered for a moment. His bony fingers turned nimbly, and he drew a small object on the paper after a while, "I saw the structure of the lock and the marks left by picking the lock. The uniformity of force, the lockpicking object looks almost like this."

Di Jinghong and Wei Luo looked at the drawing on the paper. It was a small stick with a thin front and a thick back, with four small hooks.

Wei Luo said: "The shape of this thing is very close to a key."

Zhen Ziyu said: "Yes, this person may have seen the style of the lock, and ordered a key for this lock." To Wei Luo and the others, "Look carefully at this key."

Wei Luo frowned, "This is?"

Yen Ziyu said, "This is Kongsuo with the word Shou."

The shapes of the ancient locks are peculiar and diverse, and the slots of the keys are also various. In other words, the lock in Yang's house is a hole lock with the word "Shou".

Wei Luo said: "Shou Zi Kongsuo, at least a few problems. First, this thief must have come prepared, otherwise it would be difficult to open the lock easily. Second, this thief has not only been to Ouyang's house, but also very interested in this place. familiar."

Di Jinghong said: "That's not necessarily the case, maybe it's a combination of inside and outside. For example, a certain girl in Yang's room, she knew the shape of this lock, and then colluded with others to steal this treasure."

Zhen Ziyu said: "It's not that I haven't thought about your statement, but after careful deliberation, I don't think it's very likely. If the girl in the room is cooperating with others, then why did she focus on this thing? Ouyang's family There are countless treasures, and you can get rich by just walking around with them, but stealing this bead is too conspicuous, it is difficult to get rid of it, and it is also difficult to keep it privately, there is no need for them to take this risk."

Wei Luo said: "What do you mean, the other party's purpose is not to steal money, but to go for this bead?"

Zhen Ziyu nodded and said, "I should be like this, and the thief should be someone who knows the details."

Di Jinghong rolled his eyes, and came up with an idea, "It seems to be a gangster. There are several well-known thieves in the Jianghu who specialize in stealing rich families, and they like challenges. The harder it is to steal, the more interested they are. These few days Everyone has registered in Guanlan, let's check one by one."

Zhen Ziyu said: "No, this treasure of the Ouyang family cannot be seen in the public eye, and according to the law, it cannot be kept privately. The Yang family keeps secrets, and there must be very few people who know the details. news."

Di Jinghong sighed, and lay face up on the bed, "This is not true, and that is not true, so what if you know only the iron key with the key of longevity, or we will check one by one blacksmith shop."

Zhen Ziyu smiled and said: "Investigation, of course we have to investigate, from house to house, and every family can't miss it, but longevity locks are not uncommon, and trying to find people through this method is like looking for a needle in a haystack. However, before the investigation, we must continue to narrow the scope. Draw a picture of this thief. Get up, sit down, and tell me what are the characteristics of this thief?"

Di Jinghong got up lazily, and lay down on the table as if his bones had been taken away by someone, "I wish I were Wei Luo, I can figure out what the thief looks like by pinching my fingers, you'd better let Wei Luo Tell me." He blinked at Wei Luo and said, "Master Wei, how about I light some incense for you?"

Wei Luo said: "What's the point of burning incense? It's too troublesome. I'd better pinch my fingers."

Di Jinghong regained his energy in an instant, and stared at Wei Luo intently, watching how he pinched his fingers.

Wei Luo suppressed a smile and pretended to be mysterious, "This thief, I think there are three possibilities. Either he is familiar with the person who gave Yang's birthday gift, or he is familiar with the girl in Yang's room, or he is familiar with Yang himself. , only these three kinds of people know that the object in the box is a night pearl."

Zhen Ziyu nodded, and said: "Well, moreover, you have to be familiar with Yang's most trusted girl, ordinary girls can't touch this thing."

Wei Luo continued: "That's right. Then, if we can think of it, Mrs. Yang probably thought of it a long time ago. If she had slipped her mouth, she must have someone to suspect. At present, she has no object to suspect, which means that this statement is not true. This can remove a possibility. If there are girls around her who are suspicious, she must have already caught the clues. No matter how clever and treacherous these girls are, they can't escape under her nose all day long. So..."

Zhen Ziyu said: "Therefore, there is only one possibility left. The thief who stole the item knew the person who gave it. He knew that the item had arrived at Ouyang's house, and he also knew where it was placed, so he made preparations in advance and looked for an opportunity. It's like picking out a bag, and took that bead with ease."

Di Jinghong said: "If you find the person who gave the gift, you will have it. It must be the gift received by Mrs. Yang on her birthday, but Mrs. Yang refuses to say where the beads came from."

Zhen Ziyu said: "She refused to say that she was afraid that the news about Ouyang's private possession of the Ye Mingzhu would cause disaster. Compared with the gift giver, she once told her not to leak the news. However, she can ask the gift giver in private. Why didn't she ask?" Zhen Ziyu thought for a while, and said, "Probably, Ouyang's family also made friends with rich and powerful people, and Mrs. Yang may feel that it is not decent to lose the gift from others."

The clues were speculated to be here, and they were broken again.

This time it was Zhen Ziyu who sighed. He followed Di Jinghong's example and lay on his back on the bed, "It's tiring."

Tiring, tiring heart, tiring brain.

Di Jinghong chased after him and reached out to help Zhen Ziyu massage his forehead, "Ziyu, take a break, don't tire your mind out."

Zhen Ziyu said: "The brain doesn't hurt if you're tired, it's only when you're lazy." Having said that, he still closed his eyes.

Wei Luo wasn't polite to them either, and lay down in his direction, "I'm tired too, take a rest."

worry. HGRZL-Jiaotang

Di Jinghong said: "Isn't it just to find the person who gave the gift? I don't think it's difficult. Such an expensive gift must have been given on Yang's fiftieth birthday, right? Then what if we..."

Zhen Ziyu and Wei Luo both got up, and said in unison: "I found the gift collection book." After saying that, they both laughed.

No, depending on the financial resources of the Ouyang family, the [-]th birthday must be a big deal. There are many distinguished guests on that day, and the gifts will definitely be recorded in a book.

Zhen Ziyu said again: "Not only do we need to find the book of gift receipts, but we also need to find the list of guests."

Wei Luo gave a thumbs up, "Smart."

This orb may not be recorded in the account book for receiving gifts, but if you compare it with the guest list, you will know which guest is missing from the account book, and the missing one is very likely to be the person who gave the bead.Knowing the person who gave the beads, and checking the relationship with the people around him, we can get one step closer to the truth.

Di Jinghong said: "This matter is easy to handle. Mr. Wei will go out and grab it."

Wei Luo said, "No problem, leave it to me."

Zhen Ziyu said: "No, you can't show up again. Last time you went to the governor's house to get the account books, you two were fools. This time, you must not be allowed to take risks again. Although you have been revoked the arrest warrant, it doesn't mean that you are dead. completely out of danger."

Wei Luo said, "It's okay, my hands are itchy too."

Di Jinghong looked at him in surprise, "Itchy hands? Master Wei, so your job is to be a thief?"

Wei Luo: "..." What is this all about?

Zhen Ziyu said: "Don't take it lightly, do you still want the emperor to think of you?"

Wei Luo shook his head and waved his hands, "Please don't, the old man should completely forget about me. Alas, it seems that I will have to live in such a secretive way from now on."

Zhen Ziyu said: "Don't worry, wait until next spring, let's find a way to let Shunzong let you go."

Wei Luo was happy, and said, "Is there really a way? Great."

Di Jinghong looked at the two of them with a dazed expression, "Who is Shunzong? Why haven't I heard of this person, from Dali Temple?"

Those two people: "..." Shunzong will only succeed to the throne next year, and now he doesn't even have his year name, let alone his temple name, of course you haven't heard of it.

Zhen Ziyu took a sip of tea calmly, then turned his head to ask Di Jinghong, "I said the current emperor, what do you want? Di Jinghong, we are talking about business, are you wandering again?"

Di Jinghong looked at Wei Luo. Wei Luo was more calm than Zhen Ziyu, so he could only believe that he had heard wrong. "Since Wei Luo can't go, I can only do it myself."

Yen Ziyu choked on a sip of tea.

Di Jinghong hurriedly patted his back for comfort, "Ziyu, what's wrong with you?" This is called knowingly asking.Then, I asked myself and answered, "Ziyu, you are worried about me, don't worry ~ ah, I will definitely handle this matter quickly."

Yen Ziyu was amused by his serious stupidity, stretched out his hand to push him, and said, "Stop teasing me here, go, and invite Yu Qing and Bo En over."

Di Jinghong pouted and refused to move, Ziyu still didn't believe in himself, this is going to let Yu Qing go out.

Zhen Ziyu urged him again, "Go, come and discuss with them. If Yu Qing agrees to take you, you can let him go." The implication is that if Zhang Yuqing disagrees, Di Jinghong cannot go.

Then you can't go?

It's no wonder Zhang Yuqing agreed to bring him a burden.

Di Jinghong had no choice but to find someone, and before leaving, he swore, "Sooner or later, I will be able to go out by myself."

Yen Ziyu pointed at his back and said deliberately: "Then you have to work hard!"

After Di Jinghong went out, the two people in the room laughed heartily.

After a while, the door was pushed open.

Yen Ziyu thought to himself, so fast?Counting the steps, Di Jinghong didn't even reach Zhang Yuqing's room.

Unexpectedly, Di Jinghong opened the door and came in with a sullen face, pouted mouth, eyes full of inexplicable grievances and dissatisfaction, he hesitated to speak.

The two people in the room looked at Di Jinghong. After a while, he finally made up his mind and said, "What are you laughing at? I'm serious. Just wait and see. Sooner or later, I will go out by myself, and there will be that day."

After Di Jinghong finished speaking, he closed the door and went out again.

There are two people in the room, you look at me again, and I look at you.

Hilarious.

This person will be angry. It seems that he really has a long heart.
