Qin Gang explained, "That's because this case involves some matters in the palace, and this matter has been going on for several days, and there has been no clue. In addition, the houses near the arson case have had incidents one after another, and the person responsible for patrolling the streets has We also sent a lot of guards, but to no avail!"
"For a while, people there were panicked, so the emperor personally issued an order to solve the case within three days."
This emperor is really serious. Investigating the case can never be so simple. Besides, if a monster is causing trouble, it will be even more difficult. Why do you always put pressure on others?
Li Huaiyun responded, "Sikyong, didn't you talk to the emperor carefully? If the case is too complicated, this time is simply not enough."
Qin Gang gently stroked his gray beard and said, "Try your best. There are many things going on in the palace these days, and the emperor is also feeling haggard."
"Then you can't torture others!"
Zhou Xiaolin glanced at Li Huaiyun, "Why do you talk so much, you pervert? I'll give you a few days, just a few days, how can there be so much nonsense," she said and turned away.
"You..." Li Huaiyun pointed at Zhou Xiaolin and wanted to scold him directly, but because Sikyong stood beside him, he couldn't directly say it.
Qin Gang saw that the two of them were dissatisfied again, "Okay! Since you two have been arranged to investigate the case, don't complain. Time is running out, so hurry up and investigate!"
"Sikyong, I haven't read the file yet!"
"Hurry up and check. Someone has already seen it." He waved his hand gently, signaling the two of them to get down quickly.
Li Huaiyun and Zhou Xiaolin bowed and exited the hall. They walked down the steps. Because they didn't like each other, they didn't need to look at each other.
However, he didn't know much about this arson case, so he could only be soft-spoken and let the woman tell her what happened.
"Hmph! You thief!" Zhou Xiaolin looked at Li Huaiyun, "You asked me to talk while walking, how is that possible? Find a place and listen slowly by yourself. I have brought out the files."
"Bring it out!" Li Huaiyun was a little confused. Normally, the files on this case were not allowed to be brought out unless approved by the Sikyong.
"How did you bring it out? Sikyong simply agreed to let you bring out the file?"
Zhou Xiaolin pointed to her forehead, "I didn't say which files I must be carrying? If I carry those volumes of files, it will be very difficult to walk!"
Li Huaiyun finally understood what Zhou Xiaolin meant when she pointed at her head. She pointed at this head. It was obvious that she had super memory and had engraved all the contents of the file intact in her mind. .
"It's too difficult to remember so much content. Can you really make sure to pick it up?"
Zhou Xiaolin laughed disdainfully. If the competition was in other aspects, she might give up, but if the competition was about memory, she was completely confident. In the past, she was a Go player and could review a game from beginning to end. .
She smiled proudly, "I'm not confident in other aspects, but in terms of memory, you can rest assured, I won't cheat you!"
If I'm cheated, can I still ask you to accuse me? I shouldn't let you go just for Sikyong's sake, Li Huaiyun thought to himself, feeling that everything about this case was quite unreasonable.
Li Huaiyun suggested, "In that case, let's find a place to rest first, so that it will be convenient for us to discuss. Also, my name is Li Huaiyun, so don't keep calling me a thief!"
"I just called you a pervert, what the hell!"
"Do you... believe it or not, I will smash your mouth!"
"How dare you, my father is the King of Incheon!"
"Ah! What?" Li Huaiyun suddenly straightened up. Sikyong had previously advised him to let this woman go.
I didn't expect that this would happen if this woman shouted directly.
How is this going? This woman has such an unusual identity? Li Huaiyun never expected that the dignified-looking woman in front of him was actually the princess.
I am a princess and a princess. I really have some cards. Why are the children of the royal family cooperating with me? Could it be that I am also the royal family that Tianse will give you?
After the other party's detailed explanation, Li Huaiyun finally understood why the princess came to investigate the case with him.
One of the cases involved was a former staff member of the King of Incheon. He could be regarded as having followed the King of Incheon through life and death for many years. He retired and returned to his hometown a few years ago and returned to live in Kyoto.
The territory of the King of Incheon was in the southern part of Dazhou, with mountains, plains and hills, many rivers, and developed shipping. After this old tribe returned to Kyoto, they also did some business in Kyoto.
It was quite strange that the family's home was set on fire, and none of the thirty or forty members of the family were spared. This was why he ordered his daughter Zhou Xiaolin to investigate the case.
"Did you pick this up?"
"What?" Zhou Xiaolin half-squinted her eyes and looked at him curiously, "What did you pick up?"
"How can any prince let his daughter go to Kyoto and do such dangerous things?"
Zhou Xiaolin curled her lips. She could tell that Li Huaiyun didn't trust her very much. "You think I don't have this ability?"
"That's not true! You are the princess, how can you investigate the case with me? This is very dangerous. Isn't the prince afraid?"
"I work part-time as a head catcher in Jianghang. The people there trust me very much. Since I took office, I have solved many cases, large and small."
Li Huaiyun opened his mouth slightly, but he looked at this woman with special eyes. I am afraid that in the history of the Zhou Dynasty, there was no woman like her who could work as a female detective to investigate the case and find the real culprit.
"Hey! That princess is really lucky!" Li Huaiyun was still a little doubtful, "This prince is really relieved, you come to investigate the case."
"I practice spiritual power. We fought against each other in your house. I'm afraid you know a little bit about my level!"
Li Huaiyun finally determined that there must be something wrong with this princess. Her answers were wrong and she didn't answer his questions properly. She kept silent and turned to other questions.
So, something is quite wrong.
"Princess, how did you come here? Does the prince really not know at all?"
Zhou Xiaolin was stunned. Just when she was about to explain something, she saw Li Huaiyun smiling at her. His expression seemed to indicate that he had guessed everything.
"I really didn't expect it, you guessed it!" She pursed her lips, looking unconvinced, like a defeated rooster.
"Your Majesty, you really don't know anything anymore?"
"Yes! I sneaked into his study secretly and saw the information. I thought that Uncle Liu taught me literacy, art of war and so on, and also asked me to practice spiritual power. Although I didn't become a disciple, this kind of kindness was only half. A disciple, now that something happened to him, I naturally have to find out who the murderer is for him."
"So, you sneaked out and traveled thousands of miles here just to find the person who killed Uncle Liu?"
"Yes!"
"If this prince knows that you sneaked away to Kyoto, I'm afraid he will be very worried! You'd better go and report that you are safe."
"It's okay. He is very busy. Maybe when he goes back after investigating the case, he won't know that I left my house and went to Kyoto!"
Li Huaiyun pinched his chin, wondering why this woman could be a police officer without anyone stopping her, "How did the King of Incheon make the decision to let Princess You, a female prostitute, become a police officer? "
"Girls? You underestimate us women!" Zhou Xiaolin looked displeased and unconvinced, "I have proved that women can do many things!"
That's because you haven't met any of your relatives visiting, and you have to hunt down the criminal.
"I like being a policeman, so I went for it. My father also tried to stop me, but it never worked. Moreover, I was only working as a police officer within Jianghang, and was not assigned overseas, so he just turned a blind eye. Close one eye."
"This time I came out on my own and rushed to Kyoto to investigate the case!"
I just said that I would go to the summer resort to rest for a few days, and then take advantage of the night to come to Kyoto. "
This woman was so bold, Li Huaiyun couldn't help but shook his head, she actually dared to do such a thing alone.
It seems that this princess must be loved by thousands of people, which makes her so bold.
Li Huaiyun complained to Qin Gang for a while. Wasn't this causing trouble for him? The case itself was not easy to investigate, and he had to bring the princess with him to make the task more difficult.
This requires a follow-up investigation. If something dangerous happens, he must take responsibility, just like holding a time bomb next to him.
"Then Princess, you must be careful at all times. If you really encounter any danger, ensure your own safety first."
"What are you afraid of? I have been practicing for so long and I am not a vegetarian!"
Forehead! You are really not a vegetarian, but I am really afraid that you will stay in jail and be a vegetarian for the rest of your life.
Li Huaiyun did not say these words, and took Zhou Xiaolin to a stall at the entrance of a street. There was a small tent set up with tables and chairs for people passing by to rest here.
Li Huaiyun sat on the chair, wiped some sweat from his forehead, patted his sleeves, and poured two glasses of water. At this time, he found that the princess was still standing, holding her sleeves tightly, as if she had something to say. Word.
Zhou Xiaolin stood there, looking at the yellow and black tables and stools, feeling a little resistant in her heart, "Why are you reading files in such a simple place?"
"This is not just passing by, and the advantage of this place is that it is relatively hidden and will not attract anyone's attention. In addition, it is cheap enough, so there is no place more suitable than this."
Zhou Xiaolin hates dirty and messy environments. When she sees a place like this, she naturally doesn't want to sit there.
"Hurry up and sit down. If it's later, you won't have enough time. You have to spend time analyzing it!"
Zhou Xiaolin was quite insistent. She just stood by the stool and pressed her hands on the wooden table. "Listen carefully. I will tell you the contents of the file. If you have any hesitation, you can mention it directly."
"You really don't want to sit down! At least sit down and drink tea to moisten your throat!"
"There's no need," Zhou Xiaolin looked directly at Li Huaiyun. She wanted to find a place to sit in a restaurant or something.
Li Huaiyun picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, and let out a loud noise, "Okay! Let's talk quickly. After only taking the content here, you can have a general understanding."
He glanced at Zhou Xiaolin and said, "Princess Princess, I think you should sit down! You stand over there and look at me, which always makes me a little embarrassed!"
"Take care of yourself! You don't have to worry about me." Zhou Xiaolin was obviously a little angry that she actually found this place.
