Datang Coroner

Chapter 536 Reluctance

Li Changbo pondered for a while, then smiled and replied: "That's fine, County Magistrate Xu can stay here as a guest. It's just that I still have things to do, so I'll go first and then come back."

Everyone almost laughed out loud.

Li Changbo really left as he said.

Xu Kun looked resentful, and stood up quickly: "Then I will go with County Magistrate Li!"

"I will go wherever Li County Magistrate is today! If Li County Magistrate does not agree to me, I will never leave!"

Everyone could see that Xu Kun had a firm intention.

Fu Shiyi gave Li Changbo a headache.

Li Changbo did indeed have a bit of a headache, so after rubbing his brows, he looked towards the window lattice, and said: "Well, for the time being, County Magistrate Xu don't move around here, I'll discuss with other people in the yamen before I come back."

Xu Kun stared into Li Changbo's eyes, his face full of strong suspicion: "Magistrate Li, don't lie to me!"

Li Changbo looked calm: "I will never lie to County Magistrate Xu."

Only then did Xu Kun let go of his hand.

Fu Shiyi covered his eyes, feeling so hot: County Magistrate Xu looks so much like a woman deceived by a scumbag!

That expression!That tone!Absolutely!

Li Changbo left the room without looking back.

Seeing his appearance, Fu Shiyi almost laughed out loud: County Magistrate Li may feel very uncomfortable too!

Fu Shiyi still held back his smile kindly, and tried his best to maintain his dignity.

But others don't have as much willpower.

Sparsely laughed out loud, and then more and more...

Li Changbo's face was a little stiff.

Just when the scene was about to get out of control, Fu Shiyi hurriedly asked, "What is County Magistrate Li planning?"

But Li Changbo asked Fu Shiyi back: "What does Miss Fu think?"

At the same time, he also took a look at Li Hai, as if asking Li Hai for his opinion.

Fu Shiyi hesitated for a moment, and said, "If the person is really missing, it's better to find him as soon as possible."

Li Hai also nodded: "It's okay to have a look."

It really can't be broken, and it is also the responsibility of Wannian County.

Li Changbo nodded, and went in to tell Xu Kun the news.

As soon as Li Changbo entered, Wang Erxiang said something very sincerely: "I found out that Mr. Li and Mrs. Fu are the right-hand men of our county magistrate Li! County magistrate Li even asked you about this matter!"

Fu Shiyi squinted at Wang Erxiang: "Don't you feel ashamed when you say that?"

Li Hai was thoughtful: "I remember you have been in Yamen for almost two years."

Wang Erxiang retracted his neck silently: If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't talk too much.

Zhai Sheng patted Wang Erxiang on the shoulder, saying earnestly: "Erxiang, you have to work hard."

Wang Erxiang: ...

Fu Shiyi laughed unkindly.

Xu Kun also followed Li Changbo happily out at this time.

Just as Li Changbo agreed to him, his expression changed. How could he still have the same posture as before?

Fu Shiyi was deeply moved: It's really a pity that County Magistrate Xu didn't learn Sichuan Opera.

Since he agreed to this matter, he had to go to the West Market.

So Li Changbo took Li Hai and Fu Shi and others, and went straight to West Market.

Only when Fu Shiyi was on the carriage did he have a chance to find out what was going on.

When I asked, I was taken aback.

It turned out that when the illusionist who performed illusions today was performing illusions, when he was performing an empty box turning into a living person, everything was fine at first, but when he got into the box, he really disappeared.

The illusion also failed naturally.

At first people didn't realize that the person had disappeared.

I just thought it was a performance error.

But after waiting for a long time, the illusionist did not show up, and people gradually panicked.

But after searching everywhere, in the end there was nothing but a pool of blood near the props.

The mesmer literally just disappeared out of thin air.

They searched carefully several times, but they couldn't find it, and then they came to report the crime.

Fu Shiyi listened thoughtfully, and finally raised a possibility: "Could it be...he actually ran away by himself?"

"As an illusionist, he knows this matter best. Logically speaking, it is impossible for him to make a mistake. If he made a mistake, he was injured, unconscious, or unable to move, that person would not disappear."

So the most likely possibility is that he left by himself.

Li Changbo shook his head, and retorted in a deep voice: "Illusionists rely on performances to make money, and they will never deliberately make mistakes at this time. And...he has no reason to disappear by himself."

Fu Shiyi opened his mind: "Maybe he eloped with his little lover? Or he was avoiding some enemies. Or he could deliberately create a gimmick. After a few days, he will appear unexpectedly again, fabricate a fantasy experience, and brag about it. Doesn’t that mean everyone in Chang’an is famous?”

In today's terms, it's called deliberately creating events, getting popular searches, and preserving fame.

Black and red are also red.

As long as there is popularity and topicality, people will pay attention to everything you do, and it will be easy to make money.

Everyone stared at Fu Shiyi dumbfounded, and didn't know what to say for a long time: What is Miss Fu thinking about?

Fu Shiyi blinked innocently: "What do you see me doing?"

Everyone shook their heads in unison.

Li Changbo thought for a long time, and said: "Miss Fu is right."

Li Hai asked: "Then how to investigate the case?"

Fu Shiyi spread his hands: "So you have to consider these various situations, and don't just listen to them. People may lie."

"So, it is also possible that someone really took the illusionist away." Li Changbo said so.

Fu Shiyi softly completed the remaining half of the sentence: "Evidence doesn't lie."

Li Changbo nodded: "Look for more clues."

When they arrived at the place where the illusion was performed, the apprentices were all flustered and dazed, waiting as if helpless.

Xu Kun didn't speak rashly, but thought of Li Changbo.

Li Changbo said succinctly: "First go to the place where the illusionist appeared last."

So an apprentice led them inside.

As Fu Shi walked in, he looked around carefully.

The front is used as a performance hall, but it is in order.

But behind the scenes, it's a complete mess.The props are placed everywhere, which looks very messy.

Soon the apprentice brought them to the bottom of the stage, and pointed to the mechanism above: "This illusion is to put people in a box, after chanting a spell, and then open the box, the person will disappear, and then the person will fall from the sky, carrying Flowers and ribbons—"

It's just fantasy anyway.

But Fu Shiyi understood: that is magic.It's the kind of magic that transforms people into living beings.

Li Changbo also understood, and asked the key question: "So the illusion is fake. People actually open the mechanism, jump down, change their clothes, and then jump off the top?"

The apprentice nodded embarrassingly: It's really weird to reveal the mystery of his own illusion in front of outsiders.I always feel that my job is not guaranteed.

Li Changbo walked over, looked up at the mechanism, and then looked down at the blood on the ground.
