[Seventy-five] Kaifeng House Famous Detective Code

The news of the fire naturally spread to Zhan Zhao and Yu Yikui. When they came in a hurry, the fire was already very large, and they were determined not to be able to enter the cell. get it under control.

By the time the fire was completely extinguished, it was already early the next morning.

In the fire scene, there were two charred corpses. These two corpses had been burned for a long time in the fire, and all human tissues were gone, leaving only charred and charred bones.

The identities of the two men were evident from the location of their deaths and the count of all prisoners.

They are Wang Jun and Zhang Guanhan who were captured last night.

They were arrested last night and thrown into the cell together, but it didn't take long for the cell to be burned like this!Thinking about the grievances between the two, it is actually easy to think about what happened.

When such a thing happened, the county magistrate was so angry that his eyes were bloodshot, but the culprit was already dead, and there was no place to pursue it, so he could only admit that he was unlucky.

The most puzzling thing is, how did Wang Jun or Zhang Guanhan bring the fire source in?

The county magistrate couldn't figure it out, but Yu Yikui had indeed vaguely guessed it, but she didn't bother to explain.

The follow-up work was going on in an orderly manner. Zhan Zhao and Yu Yikui planned to return to Bianjing after a few days of work.

Before leaving, the two of them took a stroll around the county town, and Zhan Zhao asked her by the way: "By the way, Miss Yu, how did you find out that the deaths of Mrs. Gu and Zhang Xiaoxiao were related to the killing of ghosts?" ?”

Yu Yikui saw this at the beginning, and the cause was the button battery. At that time, she thought it would be too troublesome to explain, so she didn't explain it to Zhan Zhao, but told him that it was too troublesome to explain, and she would explain it after the end.

This is not an excuse, she really thinks so.

She felt that there was no need to lie - there was no need to lie to Zhan Zhao.

She is very clear about Zhan Zhao's personality, he is very upright.Very gentle and very understanding person.

And he has a kind of trust in her, Yu Yikui believes that no matter what he says, even if he is shocked to death, he will never subconsciously think that she is lying to him.

As for whether to believe it or not, whether you can accept it or not, that's another story. He even took what she said as a story, and 9 is no big deal.

So, Yu Yikui said: "Actually, I come from the world more than 1000 years later..."

Zhan Zhao: "..."

Why is this opening remark so familiar?

Only seeing that Yu Yikui's expression was not joking, Zhan Zhao became serious.

She spoke slowly, telling a strange story about resurrecting a dead body, and talking about her era, women could go out to work openly, and use their names to obtain money and status openly.

She said that she used to be a teacher, that is, "Sir", and she was a gentleman of the Imperial College, and there was a special professor of criminology in the Imperial College.

Her tone was calm, as usual.

But Zhan Zhao heard a little bit of nostalgia and regret from her calm tone.

He was a native of ancient times, and he naturally had an unbelievable feeling for the world she described...

Because that world is so beautiful, no one starves to death, there is no famine, plague, or war, girls are born without drowning, and they are eligible to go to school like boys...

He couldn't help but wonder... Is the world after more than 1000 years really so beautiful?

After Yu Yikui finished speaking, she concluded: "So, I came from the same place as that Wang Jun. So when I saw the metal piece, I guessed something, and later I went to find the magic stick, and knew the existence of Wang Jun .”

Zhan Zhao was surprised and said, "The magic stick too?"

Yu Yikui said: "Well, the book he gave you was a book that used to exist in our place. That's why I wanted to know where that person was at that time."

Zhan Zhao was silent and didn't speak for a while.

After a while, he said: "You asked me about the magic stick at the beginning, was it to find a companion?"

Yu Yikui said: "I don't think people from the same hometown are companions."

Zhan Zhao said, "Then you?"

Yu Yikui said: "Well... just to see if there is a way to go back."

Zhan Zhao was startled, and subconsciously looked at her.

Her expression was still very calm, as if she was saying another ordinary thing.

He asked, "So did you find it?"

Yu Yikui said: "Of course not."

Zhan Zhao looked at her for a while, then suddenly asked, "If you could go back, would you go back?"

Yu Yikui also looked at him, without speaking for a long time.

After a while, she asked, "What do you think of me?"

Zhan Zhao shook his head and said, "I don't know what you will think, but... if that world really exists, if you can really return to that world, maybe it's better for you to go back."

Yu Yikui asked, "Why?"

Zhan Zhao looked at her thoughtfully, then suddenly smiled, and said, "It's much more beautiful there than here, and you will be happier there."

It's not like here, you have to change into men's clothes and sneak around if you want to solve the case.

Yu Yikui smiled and said, "Do you believe what I said is true?"

Zhan Zhao said, "To be honest, I don't really believe it."

Yu Yikui: "Then you still talk so much!"

Zhan Zhao also smiled, and said, "Even if it's a story...it's still a good story, isn't it?"

Yu Yikui also laughed, the two looked at each other and smiled, and didn't say anything more.

-

After the case of Zhang Guanhan is resolved, the two of them will of course set off to return to Bianjing.But before departure, there was one more problem to be resolved.

That is Huo Huamei.

Huo Huamei was the little girl who beat Wang Jun with a flashlight in Wang Jun's house that day. She is not yet 14 years old. Her father, Huo Chenggui, was shot dead by Zhan Zhao on the spot with a sleeve arrow because he tried to strangle her.

And her mother was a submissive woman. When her husband was about to kill her daughter, she just watched from the sidelines, with no intention of saving her daughter at all.

However, Huo Huamei is not sad, she lives in the county government office, she should eat and drink, she is heartless.

Zhan Zhao asked her if she wanted to go back to Huo's house to live with her mother.

Huo Huamei said nonchalantly: "What am I going back for? I'm just a little girl, and if I follow her, won't it delay her remarriage?"

hit the nail on the head...

This girl is naturally indifferent and cruel, like a little beast running out of the mountains, her parents seem to have never loved her.So she never talked about filial piety, she dismissed them.

Only that elder sister gave her love, so she would rebel against Wang Jun and her parents for her elder sister.

It is not difficult for a girl with such tenacity to live in modern times, and she may still live well, but here...

It's unrealistic to go back to Huo's house.

Although there are Huo Huamei's uncle and uncle in Huojiachong, their relationship is weak, and her behavior that day has obviously exceeded the category of a "good girl" recognized by the world. Such a girl will be regarded by everyone in the countryside. Hateful.

It is even more unrealistic to stay in the county government.

It was too easy for a helpless little girl in the county government to be bullied.Moreover, why did the magistrate keep taking her in?

Zhan Zhao and Yu Yikui came here because of official business, and they probably won't come again in the future. The county magistrate will probably drive Huo Huamei out after they leave.

Sending them to the Mercy Home, which specializes in taking in orphans, is also not acceptable.

What if Huo Huamei's relatives come to take her away in this county?She is not an orphan, so what right does Grace House have to refuse her uncle's request to take her away?

As for bringing him back to Bianjing...it's not impossible, but it's really troublesome to bring a little girl who looks like a burden for such a long distance.Moreover, Huo Huamei is so young, she can't stand the long journey.

In the end, Yu Yikui was suddenly blessed, and said to Zhan Zhao, "Wait, is Bai Yutang's home here?"

Zhan Zhao said: "Well...the Five Rats live on that empty island, which happens to be on the Luhuadang in Songjiang Mansion."

He raised his eyebrows: "You want to?"

Yu Yikui: "I can trust Bai Yutang's character. Dong Huamei has such a tenacious personality. She is a good seed for martial arts at first glance. Why don't you send it to the empty island? Aren't the Five Rats a martial arts force? They must accept apprentices." Slightly."

Zhan Zhao said with a smile, "The five rats of the empty island, except Bai Yutang, the fifth master, all of them have apprentices."

Yu Yikui said: "Then we..."

Zhan Zhao said: "Let's go through this experience."

Compared to bringing Huo Huamei back to Bianjing, sending her to Xingkong Island is indeed a good choice. Zhan Zhao went to ask Huo Huamei's wishes again, and she herself was very willing.

So the three of them set off for the empty island.

In February, it was still freezing in the north, but it was getting warmer in the south. The water surface on the reed flower pond was not frozen. With the boat, we soon arrived at the sunken island.

Zhan Zhao and the Five Rats of Zikong Island are old acquaintances. Since the time when the Five Rats made a fuss in Tokyo, they have never known each other without fighting, but their relationship has been good since then.

Hearing that Zhan Zhao came to visit, Lu Fang, the diamond mouse, came to the main hall to greet him conveniently. Zhan Zhao thanked him with a smile.

Huo Huamei is also a shrewd child, she knows who treats her well and who treats her badly, so she knelt down and wanted to call Master, but Lu Fang waved her hand, saying that he will not accept apprentices in the near future, but his wife just happened to have a child who wants to be an apprentice recently. Receive the disciple's thoughts and ask Huo Huamei if she is willing.

Huo Huamei is naturally willing.

Lu Fang's wife is also well-known in the world, she is a female Hua Tuo with excellent medical skills, Huo Huamei is very lucky to be able to worship under her.

As they said that, everyone went inside. While talking and laughing, they suddenly heard a woman shout: "Old Wu, come here! I have to tie you up today!"

Another person said: "Sister-in-law, fifth brother is really not free, let's go first!"

The woman shouted: "Little brat, where are you going!"

A white figure flashed out from the room, if it wasn't Bai Yutang, who else?He caught a glimpse of Zhan Zhao and Yu Yikui, but he didn't have time to pay attention to them, he just dodged onto the roof and disappeared.

Before everyone could react, a golden rope flew out of the house suddenly. Yu Yikui unfortunately stood in the front, and the rope was directly wrapped around one of her wrists.

When Zhan Zhao saw it, he was shocked, and immediately stepped forward and grabbed her wrist to check. The rope seemed to be alive, and the other end clasped tightly on Zhan Zhao's arm with a "click".

Zhan Zhao and Yu Yikui were bound... together by this rope.
