228 Chapter 195-unraveling the mystery (for the Alliance master “Shi Xiu”) _1

“Then let’s analyze it from the beginning. If you were Zhou Jing, how would you deal with this?” Xu Qi ‘an looked around and asked.

The night watchmen began to discuss one after another.

“Using the secret code of the night watchman?”

“Didn’t I just say that this secret code’s security level isn’t high enough?”

“If it were me, I would hide in a place where no one would be able to find me.”

nonsense. If no one can find it, what’s the point of hiding the evidence? ”

At this point, everyone was stunned, and the scene fell into a brief silence.

Xu Qi ‘an snapped his fingers and looked at the gong that had accidentally revealed the mystery. He said, “”That’s right, Zhou qu hid the evidence so that it would be found by us. Follow your train of thought and think again.”

Governor Zhang clapped his hands and gave a series of praises. He said with excitement,

“That’s true. Zhou Fu wouldn’t hide the evidence in a place that no one can find. The item that contains the clue won’t be valuable, but it will be very conspicuous.”

All of a sudden, everyone’s thoughts were opened, and they felt like they had touched the door to a new world. He excitedly started thinking.

A few minutes later, the night watchmen looked at each other in confusion. but these items have been checked. There’s no secret code and nothing that matches the jade pendant.”

The door to a new world closed with a bang, and he began to doubt life again. So, everyone turned to look at Xu Qi ‘an.

… There were too few clues to start investigating. However, to investigate a case, one had to find clues. A good criminal investigation expert was good at examining from various angles and finding clues from the details.

Noobs, on the other hand, would only be like children, their heads full of question marks … Xu Qi ‘an turned a blind eye to everyone’s gazes and was immersed in his own world.

“Do you have any clues …” A silver Gong couldn’t help but ask, but before he could speak, Jiang Luzhong sealed his mouth.

“Don’t disturb him.” Jiang Luzhong said in a deep voice.

Provincial governor Zhang also pressed his hands down, indicating for everyone to calm down. He had bet everything on Xu Qi ‘an. This young Gong had proven his value and ability with his ” battle record.

Provincial governor Zhang couldn’t help but wonder if the Duke of Wei sent Xu Qi ‘an because he had anticipated the changes in Yunzhou.

It was precisely because he had expected the difficulty of this case … “That’s why I sent Xu Qi ‘an, the genius in solving cases, to help me …” Lord Wei was indeed far-sighted.

correspondingly, the astute Guild Wei sent Xu Qi ‘an here. This means that he can definitely solve the case. Governor Zhang was secretly excited. He felt his mood become more at ease all of a sudden, and he was no longer so irritable.

He was an imperial censor, solving the case was too difficult for him. Fortunately, there was Xu ningyan …

Xu Qi ‘an was unaware of the rich inner thoughts of Governor Zhang, and was immersed in his own reasoning.

Were there really clues in these relics? If I were Zhou Fu, I would find a way to leave clues for the night watchman … However, it might not be left in the relic because it was too easy to destroy. A big fire could turn it into ashes … However, he had to leave clues behind. Therefore, the safest way was to do two things at the same time.

Right!

With two operations, yang Yingying was Zhou Fu’s other basket.

Yang Yingying was an unexpected gain, not a clue that Zhou qu had left for the night watchman. Since he did not find any clues in Zhou Qu’s belongings, why not try to break through from yang Yingying?

Thinking of this, Xu Qi ‘an’s spirit was lifted, and he suddenly felt enlightened.

The silver gongs in the spirit-forging stage were keenly aware of the change in Xu Qi ‘an’s mood. They also perked up and were about to ask questions, but they found that Xu Qi’ an’s eyes had darkened again, and he was deep in thought.

The famous detective Xu ningyan’s reasoning had once again reached a bottleneck. There were too few clues on yang Yingying.

it’s still the same question. There are too few clues. It’s only half a jade pendant. At most, I can guess that it’s some kind of token … He reorganized his thoughts, eliminated the other clue that led to Zhou Jing, and focused on yang Yingying …

if yang Yingying goes to Qingzhou, finds recluse Zi Yang, presents the jade pendant and explains the whole story … Xu Qi ‘an was simulating the process in her mind.

“What should layman Zi Yang do? He will also face my current predicament:Lack of clues.

“In a situation where we’re confused and lack clues, we must find a way to get more information. But how do we get information? Of course, he should ask the person who brought the jade pendant … Yes, yes, yes! He’s asking the person who brought the jade pendant.”

“I’ve thought of it, I’ve thought of it!” Xu Qi ‘an shouted.

“What did you think of?” Everyone said in unison.

Xu Qi ‘an instructed, “”Call yang Yingying over, I have something to ask her.”

“Hurry up and go!” Provincial governor Zhang urged.

A copper Gong immediately went upstairs and invited the plump young woman who had stayed in her room after eating out.

Yang Yingying was still wearing the coarse cloth dress she had worn when they first met. She bowed gracefully.”Why has Daren called this woman down?”

“What else did Zhou Jing say when she gave you the jade pendant that night?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

Yang Yingying shook her head,”other than what I’ve said earlier, Lord Zhou didn’t give any additional instructions.” Otherwise, I would not have forgotten.”

She had called Zhou qu her husband one moment and Lord Zhou the next. This was an expression of extreme lack of confidence. In her heart, she recognized Zhou qu as her husband, but she also felt that she had no status and was unworthy of her name. Therefore, he kept changing the way he addressed her.

Xu Qi ‘an stroked the teacup. He must have had other instructions. Otherwise, even if layman Zi Yang was a God, he would be helpless. Zhou Fu was a senior spy, and his IQ was definitely above average … Well, yang Yingying didn’t know. Maybe she didn’t notice it.

“Tell me what Zhou Jing told you that night.”

“This …” “How could I remember …” Yang Yingying said with difficulty.

“I don’t need you to be word-for-word. Just tell me the general idea.” Xu Qi ‘an consoled her, but at the same time, his heart sank slightly. The reason why yang Yingying couldn’t remember was that the two of them had probably been talking about family matters that night.

It was just like when you walked on the street and saw all kinds of people, you wouldn’t remember what they looked like. You would even forget the color of their clothes.

The more normal it was, the less it would be remembered.

that night, Lord Zhou came to find me. As usual, he brought me some Rouge, powder, a small gift, a pot of wine, and a few pounds of pig meat …

when we were drinking, he talked to me about some official matters as usual, as well as the bandits in Yunzhou …

“But because this common woman does not like to hear these things, Lord Zhou did not say too much. After that, it was time to guess the riddles …

“After dinner, when I was serving him, he told me about that matter and gave me half of the jade pendant.”

Xu Qi ‘an asked her to focus on ” officialdom ” and ” bandits, ” but found that it was just Zhou Jing’s complaints.

“What about riddles? are there any riddles?”

Yang Yingying thought for a moment and said gently,”ten mouths for one heart.”

Just as Xu Qi ‘an was about to think about it, Governor Zhang interrupted,”Si!”

“Yes, I am.” “One in a thousand, one in a hundred,” yang Yingying continued.

“Uncle,” Governor Zhang replied.

Yang Yingying nodded and said,”I’ll eat the cow’s tail in one bite.”

“Report,” Governor Zhang replied.

“The governor is amazing.” The night watchman and the Tiger guards looked at him with respect.

For some reason, Governor Zhang actually felt elated. He finally felt that he was not useless and that he was a Dragon among men. How could he allow Xu ningyan to outshine him?

Guessing riddles was a common occurrence for scholars.

Xu Qi ‘an was not happy that provincial governor Zhang kept interrupting his thoughts. He knocked on the table and said in a deep voice,

“Governor, I also have a riddle that has troubled me for a long time.”

Governor Zhang nodded his head slightly, indicating for him to give the question.

“Miss Wen is getting married,” Xu Qi ‘an said.

Governor Zhang first frowned slightly, then his brows furrowed tightly, then his face turned stiff. Finally, he was at a loss and stood there in a daze.

Xu Qi ‘an nodded in satisfaction. He looked at yang Yingying and asked her to continue.

“The last two riddles are ‘flawless white jade’ and ‘sun and moon in the same sky’. The former is the word ‘Huang’, while the latter is the word’ Ming’. ”

Xu Qi ‘an asked his colleague to find a pen and paper, spread them out on the table, and wrote:Si, Bo, Gao, Huang, Ming.

Five big words.

Jiang Luzhong read it many times. what do these five words mean? ”

The five words couldn’t be connected, and each word was independent. What did Zhou Fu want to express? Or were they really just riddles?

Xu Qi ‘an turned to look at provincial governor Zhang, who was immersed in his own world …

Forget it, these five words were obviously not a word riddle, then the governor’s role is no more, let him go and compete with miss Wen.

Then, Xu Qi ‘an was also immersed in her own world.”If this is the clue that Zhou gan is going to reveal to layman Zi Yang, then it won’t be too profound and obscure. It must be easily discovered by people who are coming to Yunzhou for the first time.

“What kind of things can be discovered so easily when you’re new here? Let’s change our way of thinking. What kind of thing is needed by people who have just arrived in Yunzhou …”

He thought of it!

Xu Qi ‘an let out a long breath.
