Gong Pan shook his head and sighed deeply: "Hey, I only hate my aptitude for being stupid, I really can't find anything, and I can't avenge the brothers who died in vain."
Seeing him grit his teeth, clench his fists tightly, and tremble slightly when he spoke, Zu An thought that if he pretended, his acting skills would be invincible.
He coughed lightly and reminded the other party, "What about the relics of the guards?"
Gong Pan suddenly realized, and took out six bags from some drawers: "Everything is here, everyone is a hard worker, and they can't keep too many things."
Zaan opened the six bags one by one in the past. These were the things of the six sacrificed guards, and his attention naturally fell on Shen Zhou's things.
While chatting with Gong Pan, I quietly looked at the contents of the sinking boat's bag, the charred saber, the waist card, the nail file, the slightly deflated kettle, a burnt book, and several intact booklets. .
"What's this?" Zaun noticed that other people's relics had this kind of book, and picked up a copy and flipped through it.
"This is something that each of our guards will have to record the situation of daily mission patrols. After all, it is very risky to do our business. Maybe it will be gone one day. This is also our last words." Gong Pan explained. .
Zuan was relieved, the embroidered messenger also has a similar thing, called the ghost book, which is used to record the identity of the owner, the recent tasks performed, the people he has met, etc., so that even if a embroidered messenger is silenced, others can also According to this thing, all kinds of clues have been found.
His eyes fell on Shen Zhou's relics, thinking that most of the damaged booklets should have been burned in the warehouse, and the other intact ones were taken from his house by Gong Pan.
In front of the other party, it is not easy for him to directly check Shen Zhou's things: "General Gong, I want to take these things back to investigate carefully."
"This..." Gong Pan's expression was hesitant.
Zuan smiled and said, "Can you not trust General Gong? I represent the imperial court and have nothing to do with the various factions in Yunzhong County."
Gong Pan hurriedly saluted: "Master Zu is serious, it is also necessary to cooperate with your investigation, but Master Zu needs to sign a handover form."
"No problem." Zaan knew that this was the official rule, and naturally he would not refuse.
After he signed it, he took the six packs away together. After returning to the hotel, Sang Hong also came over to study it together.
Zaun checked a few other items, all very common items, and soon everyone's attention fell on the pamphlets.
The charred book will shatter at the touch of a touch, and if you flip it over a little, even if you can vaguely see a few words, it doesn't make much sense.
In addition, everyone knows that the charred corpse is not the real sinking boat, so most of this booklet is fake.
So a few people began to study the other books found from Shen Zhou's house, but unfortunately they only recorded things such as patrolling, arranging and standing guards over the years, and there was no useful information.
"The clue is broken like this?" Sang Hong frowned slightly, obviously a little unwilling.
"This is also expected. If there is really anything of value, it must have been wiped out by Gong Pan or the mastermind behind the scenes." Zaan comforted.
"Azu, you went to Yu's house again today. Do you think Yu Yanluo and that Gong Pan are behind the scenes?" Sang Hong asked.
"I'm not sure." Zuan recalled seeing Yu Yanluo and Gong Pan today, and was a little dazed for a while.
Originally, she went to test it, but it turned out to be a business inexplicably. If she was really behind the scenes, wouldn't she be pulled into a pirate ship
Sang Hong hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but reminded: "That woman is not simple, so many people in the capital fell under her pomegranate skirt back then, even today's saints... Hey, don't take her as the kind of little girl you met in the past. , don't be emotional just because she's pretty."
Zaan has a black line: "Uncle is too worried, I will not be judged by beauty."
At the same time, he was curious about the temperament of the current Taishi Emperor, but he knew exactly which woman he really fell in love with, how could the other party refuse
Moreover, Yu Yanluo is soft and weak, and it doesn't look like a cultivator at all, and has no resistance.
Sang Hong wanted to say something else, but when Gao Ying came back, he immediately changed his mind and said, "Go check Shen Zhou's relationship, how's it going?"
Gao Ying replied, "Shen Zhou is withdrawn and has no close friends."
"But from what his colleagues said in the past few months, he seemed to smile more, and the whole person looked younger and happier than before."
"Happy?" Zuan and Sang Hong looked at each other. In their opinion, it should be when Shen Zhou discovered the truth about the murder of Duke Yunzhong, shouldn't he be in a state of panic
"Yeah, I also find it strange, and asked his colleagues specially," Gao Ying also showed a puzzled expression, "According to those people, the only trouble with Shen Zhou at the time was that money was a little tight, so he would ask them to borrow money. money."
"It shouldn't be a problem to occasionally borrow money between colleagues." Sang Hong was puzzled.
Gao Ying replied: "It's mainly because of the personal guards of the duke's palace, the monthly salary and bounty are not small, and those other people may be short of money, but Shen Zhou is always frugal, and theoretically this should not happen. ."
Several people in the room fell into contemplation. Zaan recalled the key words of "smile", "young" and "tight hands". He always felt that he was about to find out the truth, but he still couldn't think of it.
At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Pei You walked in with a mumble.
"Yo, there's a result at Jasper Square," Zaan joked.
"Don't mention it," said Pei You with a gloomy face, put his hand to his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief, then ran to the carbon stove to warm himself, "Jiyufang hasn't opened yet."
He was so excited when he heard that he could be sent to the brothel by the public. As soon as the task was completed, he couldn't wait to run to Jasper Square.
It's a pity that places like brothel usually do business at night. After working hard all night, those girls have to rest during the day.
As a person who has been looking for flowers and willows all the year round, Pei You naturally knows this, and he thinks that he can go in after the afternoon.
Who knows, wait and wait, when the time comes, the Jasper Square never opens the door. In the end, it was too cold outside, so I ran to ask and learned that it was still too early to open.
He was furious at first, thinking that the other party was deliberately playing him, but after some explanation from the other party, he understood what the problem was.
Because this place is located in the northwest of the capital, tens of thousands of miles away, he waited here according to the opening time of the brothels in the capital. As a result, it was a few hours later when it was dawn, and it was also a few hours later when it was dark.
Everyone's daily work and rest time is a few hours later than the capital, and the opening of Jasper Square is naturally delayed.
As a result, Gao Ying was drinking tea and chatting indoors. Zuan was entertained by Yuyanluo wine and delicacies. He drank the northwest wind alone in the snow for several hours.
Knowing all this, Pei You collapsed and ran back without any love.
Knowing the whole story, Zuan and Gao Ying couldn't help laughing, and even Sang Hong couldn't help laughing.
Pei You was extremely annoyed, and when he was about to say something, his eyes fell on the relics on the table, and he suddenly said, "Okay, Brother Zu, you really went to Biyufang with us behind your back."
Zuan was inexplicable: "You are frozen stupid, when did I go to Jasper Square?"
"You're still quibbling, what is this?" Pei You pointed to the inconspicuous nail file on the table, "This thing is a small gift from Jasper Square to the guests. It is polished with jade fragments. Although it is not a treasure, it is It’s definitely not cheap, and generally only VIPs are eligible to get it.”
Zuan and Sang Hong looked at each other, thinking that they had just mentioned that Shen Zhou had a second spring, and at the same time, he was running out of money again, and immediately blurted out: "Jasper Square!"
Pei You was taken aback: "I'm talking about Jasper Square."
Zuan and Sang Hong were too lazy to care about these two goods, and directly discussed:
"It seems that Shen Zhou's money was spent in Jasper Square."
"It's no wonder he's short of money. Although the Duke's bodyguards are well paid, they can't afford to be built in that kind of gold-selling hole."
"Hey, when I saw his wife and children before, I thought he was a family man, but I didn't expect that guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes to be such a scumbag!"
…
Pei You on the side was dumbfounded, and he didn't understand what was going on until Gao Ying explained.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go!" Pei You looked excited.
Sang Hong coughed: "It's up to you to investigate this matter, my identity is inconvenient."
He was a dignified minister, and if someone found out that he was visiting the brothel in Yunzhong County, the saliva of those officials in the court would spray him to death.
"Xiaoyou, of course, this kind of thing is left to you. You go to Biyufang to go undercover first. Brother Gao, go to Shen Zhou's colleagues to inquire about it. You can do a two-pronged approach to find out that the girl has an affair with Shen Zhou." The two men said over their shoulders.
"What about you?" Pei You asked suspiciously.
"Of course I'm here to strategize, waiting for your news." Zaan said solemnly.
Pei You gave him a look of contempt, but thinking that it should be a short while before the opening of Jasper Square, he didn't say anything. After all, going to the brothel at public expense is a beautiful job.
Gao Ying is a stable person, so naturally he will not have any opinions.
After the two left, Sang Hong looked at Zuan and said with concern: "You haven't slept in the past two days to investigate the case, go to sleep first to recharge your energy, here is me."
Zaan smiled and said, "My uncle still loves me, so I'll go to sleep first."
Looking at his back, Sang Hong thought to himself if you are exhausted here, what will my daughter do in the future.
A few hours later, the news came back, and it was found that Shen Zhou was in a relationship.
Zuan and Gao Ying came to Jasper Square, and Pei You had already been waiting there anxiously: "Hurry up, hurry up, why are you here so late?"
Looking at the lipstick mark that had not been wiped off on his face, Zaan couldn't help laughing: "It seems that you have a good time here."
"Hmph, this is called devotion to the public." Pei You puffed out his chest and said in a proper manner.
"Cut~"
"Shen Zhou's relationship has come out." Pei You reminded at this time.
"Young Master Pei, why don't you come in?" A flamboyant woman came out, her face changed when she saw a few people from Zuan, "So many people? I can't handle this business."
Pei You hurriedly persuaded: "We came from a long way, just for the reputation of the pink girl, how can the girl let us return disappointed."
The woman hesitated for a while, but suddenly noticed that Zu An Jianmei had outstanding temperament, and there was a hint of shyness on her face: "It's not impossible for this son to be together, but you have to pay more!"
