"Tell me, if we catch a few people alive, what can we ask?"
Lide asked Xiang Zhehua.
Xiang Zhehua was dragged and ran all the way by Lide, her complexion became extremely bad, she covered her mouth and coughed softly, while shaking her head and said:
"Impossible... The dead soldiers of Southern Chu... were raised as unemotional monsters since they were young... There have been many such things in the past... They have never been found out."
Xiang Zhehua pressed her beating heart, and sat on a bluestone to recover her strength.
Lide also probably guessed in his heart that this would be the result. The City Master of Shoudong City died, and soon a new City Master of Shoudong City took office. All the undercurrents and surges happened in places he could not see, and there was not even a ripple on the water surface. Lide also wanted to check the background of the city lord of Shoudong City who tried to poison him, but found that his background was too complicated and related to too many forces, and it was impossible to tell which side he was from.
In other words, it was precisely because his identity was too complicated that those hidden in the dark chose him to be the assassin.
The opponent's plan is also very comprehensive, and it is almost impossible to dig out their flaws from these places that everyone can consider. These aristocratic families have been entrenched here for hundreds of years. Not only have they not declined, but they have become more and more unfathomable. Lide is now trying to fight them with his own strength. At present, it is true that there is no advantage in the early stage. .
However, what really took up Lide's thinking time was not the danger along the way, but the reasons for those people to do so.
The nobles of Southern Chu had the guts to assassinate imperial envoys, and they were able to set up an ambush in such a peaceful area, which shows that they have great energy in Southern Chu. In this case, why didn't they just destroy the crime scene, burn all the evidence, and let the investigation team investigate? Instead of spending so much effort to assassinate the investigation team, it is better to make the bloody coat case a headless case from the beginning, so that no one can find the problem. This can be regarded as once and for all.
Or, what are they afraid of? He did not hesitate to assassinate the investigation team at the risk of great danger. Is there any evidence that cannot be destroyed, or is there another hidden secret that cannot be revealed to others
Lide glanced at Xinghua, and then began to unbutton his clothes slowly.
Xiang Zhehua didn't look at him at first, but stared blankly at the sword in her hand. Over the years, she has never given up on improving herself, and has always set strict demands on herself from Ge Ling's granddaughter. However, judging from the assassination just now, her previous efforts seemed like a joke. Even if she knew the purpose of her grandfather sending her here, Xiang Zhehua still couldn't accept everything in front of her in a short time.
Among the various forces at present, the nobles of the main peace faction who have a long-standing feud with Jiang Yuesheng are the most suspected. Xiang Geling, as the leader of the main peace faction nobles, has shown his attitude by sending his beloved granddaughter to the investigation team: The realm of folded flowers is not high, and being placed in the investigation team is tantamount to being a hostage. With this hostage, the Zhuhe faction will definitely not take the initiative to assassinate the investigation team.
Xiang Zhehua also knew about these things, but after really experiencing life and death, she still couldn't help but lose her mind for a while.
The opportunity that brought Xiang Zhehua back to his senses was when she found that the pervert in front of her started to undo her belt after taking off her clothes, as if she was about to take off her pants. Alarm bells rang in Xiang Zhehua's mind, his hand had already touched the sword, and he asked in a low voice:
"what are you doing… ?"
Lid looked back at her and said:
"Don't just look at it, you're taking it off too."
Xiang Zhehua drew his sword in his hand, first pointed at Lide, thought for a while and felt that he should not be able to beat him, so he pointed the sword at himself again, and said in a slightly trembling voice:
"Irreverent...don't, don't come here!"
Lide crumpled his official uniform, dug a hole in a place with lush vegetation by the side of the road, threw it in, tore off a small piece of cloth from the cuff of the official uniform, and hung it on a dead branch by the river. Then he said to Zhehua:
"Put on casual clothes. I won't go to Danqing City today. I'll take a small path."
Xiang Zhehua was taken aback for a moment, and asked:
"But, didn't I just make an appointment with them tonight..."
Lide took out a package from his arms like a magic trick, threw it to Xiang Zhehua, and replied casually:
"It's just a smoke bomb. The other party must also know that we are going to meet in Danqing City, and now we are throwing ourselves into the trap. Change clothes quickly, and hurry up and set off."
Xiang Zhehua took the package, and when she opened it, she found that it was a short dress and sarong. Thanks to the fact that the climate in Southern Chu is far from cold, and the clothes are not heavy, Li De was not found by hiding his casual clothes under his loose official robe. Xiang Zhehua clutched her clothes, carefully savored what Lide just said, and asked with a frown:
"Do you suspect that there is an internal response between the two of them?"
Lid shook his head:
"It's hard to say. Even if not, it's not a secret that we're going to Danqing City tonight. We swaggered and chose the shortest route before, and swaggered through the market along the way. Even a fool should guess our movements. Hastily under the assassination The troops are divided into two groups, and most of them will meet at the Danqing City at night. So they will definitely go to the Danqing City to block us, and now they are asking for trouble in the past."
Xiang Zhehua didn't speak any more, and after Lide turned around, he gritted his teeth and went to a thick banyan tree around him to change his clothes, then wrapped the original underwear into a ball, and handed it to Lide. Lide took over the clothes that were still warm and fragrant, and threw them into the pit together, then dug the soil to bury them, cleaned up the traces, a set of smooth operations.
Lide took Xiang Zhehua through the jungle and ran to the distance, and the more Xiang Zhehua thought about it on the way, the more something went wrong.
Lied is outrageous!
When everyone thought that he was going to sneak and cautiously rush to Sai'an Village, Li De took the shortest route openly, turned around the poisoned wine and killed the lord of Shoudong City, and caught an arrow shot by the archery master of Jiuda Consummation with his bare hands. , in the face of an ambush, calmly dispatch and command on the spot.
However, when everyone thought he was going to kill the Quartet all the way to the finish line, he touched it directly. And from the fact that he secretly changed into casual clothes under his official robe, and brought a set of clothes for Xiang Zhehua, it can be seen that this was not a temporary idea, it was premeditated.
Xiang Zhehua is a smart person. After she calmed down, she began to slowly understand Lide's intentions.
This is a plan to kill birds with one stone, but she has no way of guessing the exact number of N. But there is one thing she knows, the leader of the investigation team is missing, and those people will definitely use their strength to investigate, but she and Lide are rushing to Sai'an Village day and night, which will form a current situation. critical time difference.
Focusing on fighting wits and courage with those hiding in the dark will not solve any problems.
At present, the only way to solve the blood dress case is in the case itself. The sooner you arrive at the scene of the crime, the more chance you have to find out the truth.
