After a good night's sleep, Xu Zhiyun felt refreshed and his eyes were much clearer.

"Wake up!" The sparrow swooped onto Xu Zhiyun.

Xu Zhiyun had no time to dodge and was almost suffocated by the pressure.

Xu Zhiyun said: "Get off me quickly!"

"Okay!" Sparrow stood up.

Xu Zhiyun thought of something: "Remove your barrier."

"good."

Sparrowzi moved his hands, and the barrier disappeared.

As soon as the barrier disappeared, a maid stumbled into the house, almost falling over: "Miss!"

Xu Zhiyun was startled by the maid who suddenly entered the room, but her face remained calm as she asked, "What happened? Why are you so reckless?"

"Lv Shui...Lv Shui is dead!"

Score twice?

Xu Zhiyun's first thought was this word.

"Explain." Xu Zhiyun got up from the bed and straightened his clothes.

"Yes. We just planned to go there for convenience, but the fire broke out in the latrine! We quickly called for someone to put out the fire, and then we found a charred corpse inside. It was determined that the deceased was Lv Shui."

Xu Zhiyun grasped the key point and narrowed his eyes: "After judgment? How? Who judged it?"

"Back to Miss Second, the unburned clothes in the latrine have Lv Shui's name written on them."

The person was burned to death, but the clothes were not burned, and the name of the deceased was even left behind, as if to remind everyone that the deceased was Lv Shui.

There's something obviously weird about it.

"Let's go take a look." Xu Zhiyun got out of bed and followed the maid towards the toilet.

.

When we got to the toilet, many people were already gathered around us.

Looking left and right, the Prime Minister was not found.

Burning a man to death, wouldn't you even come to see him?

As expected of a scumbag dad!

Xu Zhiyun complained secretly in his heart.

Lv Shui's body lay flat on the ground, his face burned beyond recognition.

Seeing this, several maids quietly gathered around to discuss.

"Why is the Prime Minister's Mansion haunted all day long?"

"Let's talk about it."

"Yesterday my good sister Qiuxiang disappeared. I have been looking for her all day and still can't find her."

"Why didn't you tell the prime minister about such a big thing?"

"What's the use of saying it? Who in our Prime Minister's Mansion doesn't know the true face of the Prime Minister? He won't care if we tell him. Just like today, Sister Lv Shui was burned to death, and he didn't come either?"

"Excuse me." Xu Zhiyun came over, "Can you elaborate on Qiuxiang's disappearance? Dad won't investigate, but I will."

Xu Zhiyun vaguely felt that Qiuxiang's disappearance and Lv Shui's burning to death were closely connected.

"I've met the second lady." The two maids saluted hurriedly.

"No need to be polite, please tell me about Qiuxiang's disappearance as soon as possible."

"Yes, Miss. Yesterday Qiuxiang said she wanted to go for convenience. I was sleepy at the time and didn't go with her. Who would have thought she would whine..."

I burst into tears.

They all went to the toilet, one disappeared and the other was burned beyond recognition.

etc! A person's identity cannot be judged by adding a name and being completely unrecognizable, because these are all replaceable.

So, is it possible that this body is not that of Lv Shui, but that of the missing Qiuxiang?

"Does Qiuxiang have any hobbies?" Xu Zhiyun asked.

"Yes, she likes flowers, especially this kind." The maid took out a flower from her clothes, "She gave this to me. Second Miss, please take a look."

Xu Zhiyun took the flower and looked at it for a long time without seeing what kind of flower it was. He put it under his nose and smelled it. There was a faint fragrance of tea.

"Okay." Xu Zhiyun returned the flower to the maid, and then sniffed it near the toilet.

Stop when you smell the body's head.

It smells exactly like flowers!

I picked up a branch and poked the head of the corpse gently. An unburned flower fell down. I smelled it. It was the smell of the flower in the maid's hand!

Therefore, this corpse is actually Qiuxiang!

So where has the real green water gone?

Who did this "golden cicada escape from its shell"?

She didn't know either of these questions, so she could only wait and check them out later.

However, the fact that the body is Qiuxiang cannot be made public, otherwise it will alert others and allow the person behind it to escape.

"Yun Yunzi, you are so brave. You actually dare to touch the corpse's head with a branch." Ma Qiaozi hid behind the maids and said in a choked voice.

Why is this sparrow so timid?

Xu Zhiyun looked over and walked towards Ma Qiaozi: "Okay, okay, don't be afraid. It'll be fine if we don't look at the corpse."

It’s not entirely accurate to say that the sparrow’s words miss the point. No, this is a rare moment to catch the key point: "By the way, Yun Yunzi, have you made any new discoveries? Why did you touch the corpse's head with a branch?"

Xu Zhiyun smiled: "It's a secret."

This little sparrow is a talker, how can she still get it if I tell her? If someone accidentally or intentionally spreads it, it will be a warning.

Moreover, she is naive and not suitable for thinking about these complicated issues. It is better to be a peaceful little sparrow without any worries.

What Xu Zhiyun didn't know was that not telling Ma Qiaozi about this discovery today was the right choice.

"It's so cool, so cool, you are just like the immortal... Mr. Chang Xiu. You are mysterious and annoying." Ma Qiaozi was quick to talk and almost revealed Chang Xiu's identity, but luckily he changed his words in time.

Xu Zhiyun's mind was not here, so he didn't notice Ma Qiaozi's change of words: "Let's go out for a walk. It's time to relax, what do you think?"

"Okay, okay." Ma Yongzi was indeed heartless. He was scared to tears by the corpse just now, but now he was smiling and clapped his hands, "But you, a little money lover, may have to spend money."

Xu Zhiyun sighed: "I know, you don't need to remind me."

The voice was very long, and it was obvious that he was not in a good mood.

Sparrowzi smiled and said, "Let's go then."

Xu Zhiyun nodded slightly: "Yeah."

.

market.

"call--"

The man wearing the mask spurted a ball of flame from his mouth, which frightened Ma Qiaozi so much that he hid behind Xu Zhiyun.

Xu Zhiyun touched Ma Qiaozi's back to comfort him.

When passing a wine shop, the waiter shouted loudly: "Don't miss it if you pass by. We have launched a new wine, come and taste it."

"Mahjongzi, there's wine! Come on, come on, there's wine!" Xu Zhiyun waved to Maqiaozi, who was buying roast chicken.

After the sparrow paid the money, he gnawed on the chicken leg and said vaguely: "It's coming, it's coming, don't worry!"

The two entered the wine shop, went up to the second floor, and found a seat by the window to sit down.

The view from this location is excellent. You can just look down and see the fireworks on earth, and you can see the distant mountains half hidden in the clouds and mist.

It's so comfortable, I wish I could always be this comfortable.

"You are so brave, you dared to smash our signature wine!"

The waiter's voice attracted the attention of Xu Zhiyun and Ma Qiaozi.
