Chapter 44

Chance encounter

Mr. Zhuge attached great importance to this case. After reading the files and asking about the details of the case, he immediately sent Zhui Ming to leave for Youzhou immediately—besides, he even sent a letter to the Jing's ruthlessness required him to put the case in hand aside for the time being, and immediately rush to Youzhou to join Zhuiming and work together to solve the case.

——The impact of this case is really too great, and the murderer commits crimes too frequently, maybe only one day late to solve the case, and another woman will die.The most urgent task is to solve the case as soon as possible - there should be no delay.

Xi Yin looked at the letter in her hand, with a slightly hesitant expression.She actually wanted to go too, but she was really worried about investigating the case separately from Zhui Ming—although they were investigating the same case, of course it was impossible for Wu Caiyun and Zhui Ming to act together, and Zhui Ming... …Every time she separates from him, it seems that something big or small will happen to him, and he will be injured. For example, in the case of the Thirteen Murderers not long ago, half of his foot has almost entered the gate of hell.

"Want to go?" Zhuiming packed up his things, and when he turned around, he saw the little Taoist nun staring at the letter in her hand, frowning slightly, with a troubled look on her face, couldn't help smiling, and stretched out her hand to embrace the little girl. In his arms, "Then go."

Xi Yin leaned obediently in his arms, hesitated for a while, but never nodded or shook her head, just stretched out her hand, tightly grasped Zhui Ming's hand, pursed her lips lightly, her expression In addition to hesitation, he was also slightly puzzled.

"Xiu Chunshui - the wife of Yuan Wuwu, a hero in the market, Ju Yuesui - the wife of Ao Jintie, the head catcher in Youzhou, Xi Caisang - the sister of Xi Jiuniang, a talented scholar with both civil and military skills, Liang Hongshi - Situ, the rudder leader of the Youzhou Branch of the Beggar Gang No ma'am, Jiang Aitian—the daughter of the famous Jiang family in Youzhou," Zhui Ming probably knew that Xiyin knew everything about Jiang Hu, so he simply stretched out his hand and pointed to the names mentioned in the letter one by one. She briefly explained the identities of several people for her, then paused, the smile on her face slowly subsided, she straightened her expression, and said in a deep voice, "Plus Long Fangxiao's adopted daughter and the fiancée of Beicheng City Lord Bai Xinru, and Wu Caiyun, the daughter of the old village head of Nanzhai and the fiancée of the current village head, these seven people are all famous and high-ranking women in the world, and they all meet the criteria for the murderer to choose targets when committing crimes. The murderer is on the lookout."

"Although their martial arts are good, among the previous dead, some people's martial arts were much higher than theirs. If the murderer really attacked them, I'm afraid something will happen in the end. I want to investigate the case, and it's another man. You can’t always follow them, you can just protect them when you go.”

Zhui Ming said, bent slightly, and rubbed the smooth and delicate face of the little Taoist nun with his chin——Xi Yin was slightly itchy by his rubbing, but she didn't evade it, but shrank back and pressed her tightly Touching his chest, his expression was already shaken, but still with a little hesitation:

"then you……"

"It's okay, I'm going to handle this case too, we can go there together," Zhuiming stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiyin's slightly furrowed brows, as if trying to wipe away all the hesitation and worry in her brows, "When we arrive in Youzhou, I will go to the Yamen, and you can go to Wu Caiyun—the 'Four Great Masters' are very close to the Youzhou Yamen, so I will come to you at night. What's more—"

Zhui Ming seemed to have thought of something suddenly, couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand and pinched Xi Yin's face, his tone was full of jokes, but seemed to be faintly serious and worried: "I am a man, this murderer is me!" Anyway, I'm not afraid. On the contrary, it's you... the little girl is so beautiful - you must be careful, remember?"

Xiyin bit her lips, her expression was full of solemnity, she nodded seriously, then she suddenly raised her head, kissed Zhui Ming's face lightly, and said softly, "You...be careful too."

Zhui Ming nodded, subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch his face, and smiled cheerfully.

……

Both Xiyin and Zhuiming traveled very quickly, and they reached Quanjiagou in just a few days - Quanjiagou was only twenty or thirty miles away from Youzhou and Beicheng.

But the two of them didn't go any further. Instead, they found an inn in Quanjiagou to stay. One was because it was already evening, and the other was because it started to fall in the afternoon. rain.

The rain is actually not too heavy, but the spring rain never stops, and it slowly soaks through the clothes after a long time.Chasing life is used to coming and going in the wind and rain, so I didn't care about it at all, but watching the clothes on the little Taoist nun's body get wet from the rain and stick to her body tightly, showing her slender but beautiful figure. Outlined, but in the end couldn't help but feel a little flustered. While coughing and looking away, he raised his hand and took off his coat and put it on her body. Then he quickly found the nearest inn and stayed there. Take a shower and change into dry clothes.

Youzhou was close at hand, and Zhui Ming was a little worried about letting Xiyin leave alone. The little Taoist nun was taking a bath in the house, and he poured water on himself in the next room, and wiped his hair a few times. After finishing his clothes, he leaned against Xiyin’s door and waited patiently—the sound of rushing water came intermittently from the room, the scene was almost exactly the same as when he was escorting the dart silver a year ago, but the state of mind of the two of them at this moment was completely different up.Thinking about his life, he suddenly felt a little thirsty for some reason, so he raised his head and took a big sip of wine.

The sound of water in the room stopped at some point, followed by a "squeak"—the door opened.

Zhui Ming turned around, but saw that the little Taoist nun had already put on her clothes, but her long hair was still hanging loosely on her shoulders, the tips of her hair were slightly curled, and water was still slowly dripping, and she looked down ——She didn't even wear shoes and socks, she just stepped on the ground with a pair of bare white feet, it seemed that she had just rushed over to open the door after taking a shower and getting dressed.

The little Taoist nun has always been serious and rigid, but when was she ever so "dirty"?Zhui Ming frowned, but his eyes fell on Xi Yinchi's bare feet uncontrollably, his throat moved slightly - before he could speak, Xi Yin had already stretched out his hand and grabbed it. Zhui Ming's wrist pulled him into the room, then went straight to the bed, tiptoed and put his hands on his shoulders, and pressed him to sit on the bed.

And then—the little Taoist nun also climbed onto the bed and moved over.

Zhui Ming was stunned, couldn't help but swallowed, and her throat rolled up and down—wasn't the little Taoist nun stupid and didn't know what to do with the person she liked?So now this is... who taught her what?

Seeing that the little Taoist nun had already leaned over and got closer to him, the struggling look in Zhui Ming's eyes became more and more serious. When she was only a few inches away from him, reason still took over. Upwind, Zhui Ming gritted his teeth cruelly, reached out and pressed the little Taoist nun's shoulder:

"Xiyin..."

As soon as the words came out, Zhui Ming realized that he was extremely thirsty, and his voice was so low that he could hardly speak anymore.

Xi Yin, who was stopped by Zhui Ming, paused slightly, tilted his head slightly, his face was still expressionless, but there was already a bit of doubt in his expression, and he stared at him without blinking. Chase life.

Zhui Ming couldn't help coughing lowly, gritted his teeth and said, "Xiyin, this...don't worry, we can do it later."

Xiyin seemed to be slightly taken aback when she heard the words, then immediately frowned, and shook her head almost resolutely with a small face.

Zhuiming coughed again, almost sweating on his forehead: "Xiyin..."

Before he finished speaking, a shadow immediately fell from the sky, blocking his head and all his sight.Zhui Ming froze for a moment, then coughed softly, and relaxed all over his body—the little nun was covering his head with a towel in her hand, and was wiping it for him earnestly. Also healthy hair.

"We can't wait later," Xiyin brushed his hair earnestly, while giving him a slightly reproachful and distressed look, with a solemn tone, "If you don't dry it now, you'll catch a cold."

Zhui Ming couldn't tell whether he felt relaxed or regretful at this time, but he could feel his face was obviously hot, and his old face was red for the first time. Fortunately, the towel was big enough to cover his face For the most part, the little nun couldn't see it.

Because of the height difference, Xiyin knelt up straight on the bed, with a little effort in the movements, Zhuiming slightly bent down and lowered his head to make Xiyin's movements easier.As soon as he lowered his head, the little Taoist nun Bai Shengsheng's feet came into view immediately—Zhui Ming froze for a moment, and looked away with some difficulty. After a while, he finally couldn't help it, and turned his gaze back , staring straight at those white and delicate feet.

Xi Yin is always very serious and efficient when doing things. He quickly dried Zhui Ming's hair, then wiped his neck and chest, and then leaned over to replace the comb with his hands seriously. After combing his hair neatly, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Holding the towel, he was about to get out of bed to hang up, but he was caught by the chase and fell into his arms.

Xiyin blinked her eyes, and just about to speak, she suddenly felt warmth on her feet—looking down, Zhuiming was covering her slightly cold feet with one hand, and taking the bundle she had put on the bed with the other , found a pair of clean socks, put her head down and lightly put them on for her.

"Knowing that your hair and body will catch cold if you don't dry your body, why don't you know that bare feet can also catch cold?" Zhui Ming gave her an "unhappy" look, his voice was always rough, but when he listened carefully, it seemed to be full of coldness. With faint tenderness.

Xiyin didn't speak, just blinked, let him put on his shoes and socks obediently, and then fell silent for a moment, then said softly: "I... heard you outside, it's good to be so soon, It must be because I didn't take a good shower and dry myself. I... I was worried about you, so I forgot."

Hearing the words, Zhui Ming gave her a "serious" look, but his eyes were unconsciously filled with tenderness and a smile, and he bent down slightly.Seeing that the distance between the two of them was already close at hand, both of them suddenly paused, and looked out of the door together——the voice from outside the door just now seemed a little familiar, as if...

Xiyin couldn't help looking at Zhuiming, Zhuiming touched the top of her head, carried her out of bed, put her on the ground and stood still.The two walked to the door together, opened the door - and saw two figures hugging each other tightly at the door of the next room.One of them was tall and handsome, and he was Zhou Baiyu, the lord of the North City. The woman in his arms was wearing a thin red shirt, she was fair and weak, but she was clearly not his fiancée Bai Xinru!
