In the study, Yan Shu knocked on the door, and heard a sound of 'enter' from inside.
Yan Shu pushed the door open and entered, and saw Qin Jueming sitting in front of the desk, carefully looking at the official document in his hand.
Yan Shu saluted and called out: "Father..."
"Shu'er." Qin Jueming interrupted him abruptly, "I went to the post station before, did you find any suspicious points?"
Yan Shu paused, and said, "Father, Li Changtian..."
"Can you find any suspicious points?" Qin Jueming slowed down his tone, looked up at Yan Shu, and repeated.
Yan Shu couldn't help it, so he told Qin Jueming what he saw and heard when he went to the post station.
Qin Jueming lowered his eyes, thought for a while, and said, "I'll help you check the letter that Mr. Xu submitted to the court along the way, but if it disappears in the capital, you have to rely on yourself."
"Thank you foster father." Yan Shu pursed his lips, afraid of being interrupted again, and suddenly said very fast, "Li Changtian had lost his memory before, even if his foster father tortured him, he would not get any information about the 'Jackdaw'. ' news."
"How do you know that he isn't lying to you?" Qin Jueming put down the official document in his hand, "Shu'er, you have a kind disposition since you were a child, and you don't see the sufferings of the world, but you are easily used and deceived because of this, really..."
Qin Jueming suddenly raised his eyes and looked straight ahead, his eyes fixed on the wall where Yan Ziqing's portrait was hung: "I really followed him."
Hearing Qin Jueming suddenly mentioning his father, Yan Shu paused for a while and remained silent for a while.
"In short, if you concentrate on investigating the case, leave this person to me. Don't say much, go and rest." Qin Jueming picked up the official document again, and stopped looking at Yan Shu.
Yan Shu took half a step forward: "Father, Li Changtian and I met Chuyu Town. I didn't intend to settle in Chuyu Town, but I only stayed for a few days when I heard that there was a tragedy from the people in the town. What's more, I almost He almost killed Li Changtian, if all of this was his scheme, it would be too coincidental and too risky."
"So?" Qin Jueming's face was gloomy, he put the official document in his hand on the table, and looked up at Yan Shu.
Yan Shu said fearlessly: "His amnesia should be real."
"Even if he really lost his memory, so what? He is a 'Jackdaw' after all." Qin Jueming gritted his teeth, trying to suppress the anger in his chest.
"The spies just saw him talking with 'Killer 2'. How can he be sure that he is the man of 'Jackdaw'? Besides..." Yan Shu took another half step forward and walked to the desk with burning eyes, "Father, the matter is over. In the past nine years, the five killers of the 'Jackdaw' all died in your hands, but the adoptive father still can't let go of it. Father is under the nine springs, seeing you blinded by hatred, really Will you feel happy... "
Snapped!
The sudden crisp applause echoed in the corner of the wing.
Yan Shu was beaten to the side of his head, and he was stunned.
"Get out." Qin Jueming's voice was cold.
Yan Shu lowered his eyes, saluted silently, got up and walked out of the study.
Qin Jueming was tense all over, but when the door closed, he suddenly lost his breath. He leaned back slightly and leaned slumped on the chair.
He stared fixedly at the portrait on the wall, and suddenly coughed violently.
After coughing, Qin Jueming's hands were trembling faintly, he slowed down, and said to himself: "If you really feel unhappy, just imagine a dream and scold me..."
-
darkroom.
The bean-sized candle flickered on and off, and suddenly flickered, and the door of the dark room was gently pushed open.
Li Changtian, who was kneeling in the middle of the dark room, raised his head with difficulty. When he saw the person coming, he smiled and said, "Do you think I'm going to offend your whole family? After being beaten by you, I will be beaten by your adoptive father. Tell me that your family is still alive." Who is there, I will hide in the future."
Yan Shu closed his eyes and said nothing, he put the wooden lunch box in front of Li Changtian, and then loosened the iron chain on his hand, so that he could sit down instead of kneeling hard.
Li Changtian grinned in pain, leaned on the wooden frame behind him, his hands dropped to the ground, and let out a long breath.
Yan Shu pushed the lunch box containing the food towards Li Changtian.
"Don't eat." Li Changtian sighed, "Hands are numb and hurt, I can't lift them up."
Yan Shu paused, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, half-kneeled in front of Li Changtian, pretending to feed him, and persuaded: "Eat some."
Li Changtian didn't have the strength to refuse, so he took two mouthfuls from Yan Shu's hand, and suddenly heard Yan Shu ask: "Are you really a 'Jackdaw'?"
Li Changtian swallowed the food in his mouth: "That little and delicate cook in your family has been tortured and questioned me all afternoon today, and you still come to ask? I said brother, are you asking me what is wrong?" Can you tell me what the hell this Jackdaw is before you get into the crows?"
Yan Shu lowered his eyes.
"'Jackdaw' killed my father."
