How to work

After the autopsy is complete, it's time for the police officers to be busy.No matter how concerned Lu Li was about the case, he couldn't take a step forward until he didn't know who the corpse was, where it came from, and what social connections it had.

It stands to reason that such a situation is just right for him, to tidy up the sudden complicated mood and so on.But Lu Li is different from ordinary people. He is obsessed with the case beyond everything else, and nothing in himself is as important as the case... So except for a small amount of time when he thinks about the unspeakable matter, he spends most of his time paying attention to the case News, very anxious.

Wei Butou has worked very hard, but the spread of ancient information is slow, and it is impossible to find out quickly.Lu Li sighed every day, was absent-minded when talking to Shen Wansha, didn't eat well and couldn't sleep well, so he smiled a little when playing hydrangea with the puppy.

Zhao Zhu still had a sense of presence as usual, but unfortunately all he got these days was blank stares, and Lu Li didn't even look at him doing exercises topless in the morning.

Of course, there are reasons for being in a bad mood because of the impatient case, but the biggest reason is that Lu Li is self-examining why he has such thoughts in his heart!If we are friends, Zhao Zhu is good in everything, but if we are... well, what are the advantages of this person besides his good figure and good face!

As soon as he looked at Zhao Zhu, Lu Li felt that he was blind for a while, and he simply couldn't see it.

He didn't worry about offending Zhao Zhu at all, if he was just friends, of course he should treat him politely, but if he wanted to be together, he needed to be as comfortable as possible!It is too tiring to spend a lifetime facing each other and still have to pay attention to etiquette all the time.

It's time to be honest and let Zhao Zhu know who he is.

It's better to be scared, it's okay to run away from home, because you don't have deep affection, you can always get it back when you are sad; if you try to please everything, you will lose it when you are deeply trapped in your heart The trauma is afraid that it will never recover!

Lu Li's decision for this sudden germination of his own is: don't do anything for now, let nature take its course, and see clearly his own heart first.

He gave himself a time limit, and after this period, if he still couldn't let go, he would actively fight for it and try to clear the obstacles;

The attitude of getting along changed too quickly, he thought Zhao Zhu would get angry, but he didn't have any temper at all, on the contrary, he became more tolerant towards him, even the degree of approach seemed to be considered, and he didn't do anything to make him unhappy.

It really surprised him.

But he didn't know that Zhao Zhu was the most cunning. He had led troops for many years and had the most keen intuition. He got along with him every day and knew his temperament very well. How could he not know when he was really angry and couldn't continue to provoke him? Can you still try to tease before touching the bottom line?

Furthermore, Zhao Zhu lived next door, so he had good hearing and eyesight, he knew when he went to bed and when he was asleep, he didn't approach him during the day, and he didn't take advantage of it at night!

Of course, Zhao Zhu is not without work.While holding Yu Tianyi in his hands, guarding him loosely outside and tightly inside, Jiang Taigong fished and others took the bait; at the same time asked the hidden guards to follow the Chiyantang team they saw a few days ago, find out the past, wait for the opportunity to capture, and inquire about entry News, the purpose of coming to Daxia; in the end, we must keep in touch with the emperor, and report what we have seen, what we have done, including any suggestions...

While doing these things, he still has to spend a lot of time talking about love, King Ping is also working very hard!

But no matter how powerful he was, it was impossible for him to see through Lu Li's heart. He didn't know what his daughter-in-law was thinking, so he attributed Lu Li's recent behavior to the facts of the case.

The daughter-in-law is too worried about the case, she is not in the mood to seduce him!

It's worth it!

For his ulterior purpose, Zhao Zhu continued to train his subordinates: according to the direction provided by Lu Li, find the identity of the deceased.

……

Wei Butou was in a state of desperation for several days, and with the news he found and an unnamed secret letter from heaven, he was finally able to come to Lu Li.

Within two months, there were three missing persons found in Jingzhao Mansion.The two passed through the Jingzhao Mansion, but before entering the Fucheng, they suddenly lost their whereabouts. One of them entered the Jingzhao City Gate, and his whereabouts were unknown after that.The three of them all came from the official road, and rested in the post station all the way, but when they arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, their whereabouts were unknown, and there was no news at all...

After hearing this, Lu Li frowned slightly, "The names and official positions of these three people, can the exact time of disappearance be found out?"

Wei catcher nodded, "These three people are all from Shangjing. They passed through Jingzhao Mansion. The two are Zhang Hua, who is in charge of public affairs at the eighth rank; Guo Leshan, who is at the sixth rank. They have been missing for more than forty days. After entering Beijing The person in Zhaofu City is Si Xingying, the envoy of the sixth rank, who entered the city 20 days ago, and has not heard from him since entering the city until today."

Lu Li pondered for a moment, "You are an official, and you have a first and last name. It's fine if you haven't entered the city. How come no one knows after entering the city?"

"It's because this person is keeping a low profile." Wei Butou explained in a deep voice.

This Si Xingying is only sixth rank, and his official rank is not very high. If he comes to Jingzhao Mansion for official business, he will be handed over by someone who has obtained the paperwork, but no one in Jingzhao Mansion has received the paperwork, and he does not know that this person is coming, so he This visit may be due to personal matters.

The head guard went to check the city defense record.As long as there are special people passing by, even if the staff in charge don't remember it, they must have left a record at that time, and it turned out to be sure.This Si Xingying dressed low-key, entered the city alone, without servants around him, if he hadn't taken out his identification plate, the city guards would not know that he was an official.

The official position is not high enough, and it is not a problem to dress low-key and not bring people down. People don't care about it, and others don't think there is a problem.

Unexpectedly, this person disappeared after entering the city. I searched all the inns and shops, but no one had heard of his name.If it weren't for the discovery of the headless body this time, the search for missing persons, or the official body, might not be able to find out the name.

"There is a record of entering the city, but there is no news after entering the city." Lu Li tapped the table with his fingertips, his eyebrows drooped slightly, and a light flashed in the bottom of his eyes, "I must have used a fake name."

Catcher Wei also had the same guess, "It's just that I don't know what name he uses, so I can't find him everywhere."

"This is difficult."

"Who says it's not..." Wei Chuan's hair was worried, and as soon as he had a direction, there was no more to say.

Shen Wansha held his chin, his big eyes flickered, "The two people in front of us passed by Jingzhao and have not entered the city gate, so they are not as likely as this Si Xingying. The headless corpse must belong to Si Xingying!"

"But no matter who it is, it is necessary to find its trace." Wei Butou sighed.

"Don't worry about Butou Wei, don't we still have clues?" Lu Li smiled.

Wei catcher turned to look at him, "Is there any clue?"

Lu Li nodded, raised his hand, touched his nails, his eyes flickered, "This."

Shen Wansha reacted faster than Butou Wei, and instantly punched his palm, "There are blue and white brick slags in the nails of the corpse!"

"Exactly." Lu Li looked at Shen Wansha with a smile full of satisfaction, "a few days ago, you told me that there is a place in Jingzhao Mansion where the wall bricks are light in color, which has a special taste. ...Where did it come from?"

"Where did it come from..." Shen Wansha was stunned, the name was on his lips, but he just couldn't remember it!He scratched his head for a moment, pointed at Zhao Zhu, "He knows!"

Lu Li blinked and turned to Zhao Zhu, "You know?"

This was the first time Lu Li looked at him in the past few days.

Slender eyebrows, dense eyelashes, eyes as clear and clear as a lake in spring, soft and focused like a lover...

Seducing him again!

Zhao Zhu's heart was at ease, and the bottom of his eyes seemed to be on fire. Subconsciously, he straightened his back, and his slightly bent arms were more aesthetically pleasing, "I know." He lowered his voice, trying his best to make his voice dark and pleasant, "It's Hua—— —”

"Huajinfang!" Wei Bu punched the table with his fist, his eyes excited.As a local, what foreigners can see, he thought of it after a few turns in his mind!

Lu Li's eyes shifted immediately, and he looked at Butou Wei, his eyebrows and eyes were curved when he smiled, and his cheeks as smooth as jade fat seemed to be shining, "Really?"

Captain Wei nodded resolutely, "It must be here!"

"So, without further ado, let's go to Huajinfang!" Lu Li immediately got up, not forgetting to hold Shen Wansha.

Shen Wansha was also very excited, and even hugged the little milk dog who ran to the door barking to join in the fun, "Let's go together!"

A few people walked out happily, but no one thought of it, and there was one person who was ignored behind them...

Zhao Zhu's face was as black as charcoal, and his body was surrounded by murderous aura. When he loosened his hand, white powder fell, and he crushed the teacup into powder!

Xing Zuo was so scared that he almost fell off the roof, but Hong You stopped him in time.

He patted his chest and rejoiced, and asked Hong You in a low voice, "What's wrong, my lord?"

Hong You didn't answer, just sighed slightly.

The limelight was robbed, and the concubine refused to even give her a look. The prince is pitiful.

But if the prince didn't intend to show off, and directly said what the concubine wanted to know, it wouldn't be like this...

Zhao Zhu thought that he would be sullen when he got angry, so he crushed the cup unknowingly.

He patted his clothes to calm his emotions, and walked out as if nothing had happened. While walking, he told the hidden guard, "Change to a new tea set."

Xing Zuo couldn't help admiring him. If you don't say that our prince is amazing, he won't be angry now!

Hong You patted Xing Zuo's head, it was still too naive, the prince is just thick-skinned and has nothing to admire.

……

Lu Li thought that he could find clues and get good news when he went to the place, but when he walked to Huajinfang, he realized that he was too naive.

Huajinfang is called Fang, and the place is naturally very large, with a length and width of more than two miles. There are houses, taverns, restaurants, lacquerware, ironware, rouge and handkerchiefs, and various shops.The designers put a lot of emphasis on aesthetics, and the architectural style of the workshops is the same. They are all gray-white wall bricks, dark blue roof tiles, and a boxy workshop.

How to find clues in such a large area?It is to describe the physical characteristics of the deceased, asking one by one, and it will take a few days to finish the questioning.

"Let's... split up." Lu Li had no choice but to propose this.

Captain Wei agreed, "I'll immediately notify my brothers to come and help. Sir and Young Master Shen are still going together. Although the law and order in Jingzhao Mansion is good, there will be no danger in broad daylight, but we must always take precautions."

Lu Li nodded his head in agreement, "This will bother Wei Butou."

Catcher Wei cupped his hands, "Sir, don't worry about Wei's work."

The two groups separated, Shen Wansha was gearing up, "Little Lizi, let's start now!"

Lu Li nodded, "Yes."

Young Master Shen's eyes sparkled, "How do you start?"

Lu Li: ...

"Describe the physical characteristics of the deceased, and ask the locals if they have seen such a stranger within twenty days."

"it is good!"

……

Shen Wansha was full of ambitions, naively thought that the victory was just ahead, and was full of energy, but as more and more people shook their heads and denied the answer, he slowly withered, and grievously tugged on Lu Li's sleeve, "Little Li... They all said they hadn't seen it."

Lu Li was not discouraged, "It is difficult to find people. But if the only place in Jingzhao Mansion uses blue and white wall bricks, the deceased must have appeared here. It is impossible that no one saw it. Let's continue."

Shen Wansha looked dissatisfiedly at Zhao Zhu.King Ping came over early in the morning, but he and Lu Li were working, and even the little milk dog was not allowed to be hugged. Wang Wang helped to call the door, but this powerful Prince Ping stood by with his arms folded, showing no intention of helping!

Doesn't he like that Lu Li wants to attack? Is it really good to behave like this!

Zhao Zhu still looked serious, and he didn't even glance at him.

……

"Si Xingying...what kind of pseudonym will he use?" Lu Li muttered to himself while he was busy.

Shen Wansha also repeated Si Xingying's name, "Xiaoxing? Daying?"

The two of them were frowning and worrying, when the puppy suddenly bowed its head, lowered its head, and barked non-stop towards the corner of the alley, with a tender low growl warning sound from its throat.

someone!

Lu Li and Shen Wansha looked at each other.

"Who!" The two ran to the corner of the alley while drinking, but unfortunately, they didn't find anything.

"Dabai won't bark for no reason." Shen Wansha narrowed his eyes slightly, "There must have been someone here just now!"

Sneaky and sneaky, is it related to the case!

Lu Li was also worried about this. After thinking about it, he finally stopped being awkward. He looked at Zhao Zhu who was crossing his arms, "Brother Zhao, would you like to help?"

Zhao Zhu's expression remained unchanged, his eyes were as sharp as an eagle staring at Lu Li, and he approached him step by step.

Lu Li was a little nervous, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help backing away.

Shen Wansha felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so he curled up tightly and hid himself in the corner of the alley.

With his back against the wall, Lu Li couldn't retreat any longer, and fixedly looked at Zhao Zhu.

Zhao Zhu stopped two steps away from him, leaned forward, "Want my help?"

The distance between the two of them was very close, and their breathing overlapped and snorted could be heard.

Lu Li once again saw the flustered self in Zhao Zhu's eyes, and his heart beat involuntarily.

Zhao Zhu is tall, and he didn't reach out to imprison him, nor did he touch even a little of his clothes, but he still felt surrounded by Zhao Zhu's breath, and he had nowhere to escape...

It's useless to be angry at himself again, Lu Li gritted his teeth, put his hand on Zhao Zhu's chest to prevent him from approaching, and said in a rough voice, "Whether you want to help or not, give me a good word!"

"Help." Zhao Zhu's voice was low like a sigh, "Why don't I help you because of your favor?"

While numbing Lu Li's thoughts with a cello-like voice, he gently put his hand on Lu Li's cheek and stroked, "As long as you say."

The skin on Zhao Zhu's hands is not smooth, and the slightly rough touch is not pleasant, but the feeling brought by this rough caress is extremely clear, and Lu Li's whole body seems to tremble...

With a trembling heartstring, Lu Li turned around to avoid his hand, and coughed twice in disguise, "Then go."

Zhao Zhu glanced at him, which was quite meaningful.

But this time he didn't say anything, he just raised the hand that touched Lu Li's face, and put it between his lips to rub it lightly.

As if it was just an unconscious behavior, Lu Li blushed.

This, this...how could this be!

Lu Li gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, reminding himself not to be so useless next time, making Zhao Zhu ashamed is justified!

Zhao Zhu's attack was naturally extraordinary, he jumped up and down, suddenly disappeared on the wall and came back immediately, but when he came back, he carried a person in his hand.

Lu Li was very surprised, just because this person...he had seen it before.
