Chapter 198
Xiao Ningxue was contemplating when she heard the deputy general report outside.

"General Zhu is here!"

Following the shout, the tent emperor was beaten up, and a tall and strong middle-aged man with a dark face walked in.

The man was wearing a red and black armor, with a big knife on his waist, and a gentle yet majestic smile. He was Zhu Zhiyuan, the general of Zhenxi.

Zhu Zhiyuan has guarded the western border for many years, rarely returned to the capital, and did not recognize Wu Chongwen as the Night King, so he just ignored him and greeted Gao Tutou.

"Captain Gao, how is the investigation going? Has the autopsy been done?" "It has been done." Catcher Gao replied respectfully.

"What result?" General Zhu looked over eagerly.

Gao Yao took the autopsy sheet to Zhu Zhiyuan for inspection.

After Zhu Zhiyuan read it, he returned the autopsy sheet to Gao Yao, feeling relieved.

"No poisoning, no internal injuries, so they did die from a strange disease that has never been seen before."

"Before, I had nothing to prove. No matter what I said, people would not believe it. Now that I have this post-mortem report, I can be regarded as able to confess to Master Xiao and the two great families of Changning City."
Looking at his appearance, it seemed that the case was going to be closed, Gao Yao hurriedly said: "General Zhu, why is this strange disease only suffered by people of other races? If we don't investigate clearly, Yu Chixiu and Hu Yanrui may not believe it."

Zhu Zhiyuan pondered for a moment, then explained, "The ancestors of these alien races immigrated from the Western Regions, not only their appearance is very different from the Central Plains people, but their bodies must also be very different from the Central Plains people, so this strange disease is only caused by them. .”

This statement seems reasonable at first glance. In the ancient times where medical skills were not very developed, many people would believe it, but Xiao Ningxue is a modern person, how could she believe such a statement?
What kind of virus will pick people? White people, black people and yellow people, but everyone will get the same disease.

So no matter how weird this disease is, it is absolutely impossible that only people of other races get it, unless it is intentional!
Thinking of this, Xiao Ningxue couldn't help but look deeply at Zhu Zhiyuan. Is he trying to calm down the matter as soon as possible, or is he deliberately covering it up? It's really worth investigating.

Catcher Gao naturally couldn't let this matter go like this. Girl Xue and the others just arrived here, and they haven't started their investigation yet, so how could they just leave? He hurriedly opened his mouth again.

"I also ask General Zhu to give me another three days. If nothing can be found after three days, I will return to Changning City to report."

Zhu Zhiyuan didn't answer, but noticed that there were two new faces in the tent, and frowned.

"Who are these two?"
Xiao Shan was not feeling well, Xiao Zhang took him back to the tent and slept, but he didn't come at the moment, so Catcher Gao hurriedly introduced him.

"These two are Lord Xiao's niece and nephew-in-law, and they are the doctors specially sent by Lord Xiao to investigate the strange diseases that the six children of different races had."

Wu Chongwen and Xiao Ningxue are not policemen and government servants. It would be best to say that they are doctors. After all, those foreigners died of strange diseases. It is reasonable for Master Xiao to send two doctors to investigate.

Xiao Ningxue stepped forward respectfully, and gave Zhu Zhiyuan a blessing. "My little girl, Xiao Ningxue, has met General Zhu."

Wu Chongwen also stepped forward and cupped his fists, "Chongwen has seen General Zhu." He deliberately omitted the "Wu" surname, so as not to arouse the other party's suspicion. After all, no matter how low-key he is, the name Wu Chongwen is still heard by many people. passed.

Sure enough, the name 'Chongwen' did not attract Zhu Zhiyuan's attention, what surprised him was the outstanding appearance of Wu Chongwen and Xiao Ningxue, after all, such beautiful people are not seen everywhere.

After being stunned for a moment, he laughed, amiable without any airs.

"So it's my little niece, my niece-in-law~
"I didn't expect you to be proficient in medicine at such a young age? You really are better than blue!"

"Then you should investigate carefully in these three days to find out where this strange disease comes from, and then you can give Changning City an explanation after you investigate clearly."

"Okay, General." Xiao Ningxue and Wu Chongwen agreed in unison.

Zhu Zhiyuan didn't doubt their identities, and after exchanging pleasantries with them, he asked about the physical conditions of the four men of different races in foreign language.

"Do you have a fever?"

"Do you have a sore throat?"

"If you feel uncomfortable, you must speak up."

Those four people shook their heads one after another, Xiao Ningxue looked at the young man who was still looking sluggish just now, seeing that he was in good spirits at the moment, she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Is he trying to hide it on purpose? Why does he refuse to speak out when he feels unwell?
After Zhu Zhiyuan asked a few words casually, he left the camp. It was noon at this time, so he invited the high catcher Xiao Ningxue and the group to have lunch.

Although Zhu Zhiyuan didn't talk much, he did not lose his enthusiasm. After the meal, he told his lieutenant to fully cooperate with Gao Butou and his investigation, and then went about his own business.

After he left, Xiao Ningxue and Gao Butou came to a remote place where there was no one to discuss the case.

"How do we investigate next?" Gao Butou was worried.

Xiao Ningxue asked after thinking for a while.

"Did those people see a doctor after they got sick?"

Doctors are the most manipulative people, so it is right to start the investigation from them.

However, Catcher Gao said:
"I've seen the doctor, but they brought the doctor themselves."

"The older one on the far right in the camp just now is the private doctor they brought to Changning City." After all, they are from a wealthy family, and they brought a private doctor when they entered the camp as a soldier, which shows how much their family members value them.It was precisely because of this that these people died in the barracks, and the consequences were serious enough.

If the truth is not checked, it will be enough to stir up the hatred between the Yining soldiers and the western families, so it is no wonder that the west is not chaotic.

The one on the far right? Xiao Ningxue frowned.

Just now she noticed that the man on the far right looked a little sluggish and kept swallowing, so he turned out to be a doctor? If so, then he must know something.

"Just start investigating with these aliens, and there will definitely be something to gain." Just as Xiao Ningxue was about to speak, Wu Chongwen said calmly.

After Xiao Ningxue heard this, she looked at Wu Chongwen with admiration.

"I didn't expect that Ah Wen also has the talent to solve crimes. I want to go with me."

There was a smile on the corner of Wu Chongwen's lips, solving cases was his job, if it wasn't for Xiaoxue's suspicion of his identity, he would have already brought out the doctor named Yuchi Yuanbai alone to question him.

He had talked with those aliens, and knew that Yuchi Yuanbai was a doctor brought from Changning City by the children of those aristocratic families.

However, Yuchi Yuanbai knew that something was wrong with his body, but when Zhu Zhiyuan asked about their physical condition, he deliberately cheered up and concealed his discomfort.
So what is he worried about? Why is he so wary of Zhu Zhiyuan?
Xiao Ningxue also had this doubt, thought for a while and asked Wu Chongwen.

"Can Ah Wen write foreign characters?"

"meeting.'

"After we went there for a while, I wanted to ask what to write."
"Okay." Wu Chongwen nodded. There are so many people guarding outside, at first glance it seems that they are for the safety of the people inside, but who knows if they have other purposes?
If you use writing, maybe you can ask those people to get something out of their mouths.

Soon, the group came to the tent where four aliens lived again.

Gao Butou stood guard at the entrance of the tent, and after Wu Chongwen entered, he took out the pen and paper he had secretly hidden and began to write on it.

"General Zhu asked us to ask you, is the food and drink okay?"

He deliberately asked this loudly, but what was written on the paper was another line.

"We were sent by City Lord Yuchi and Lord Huyan to rescue you. If you have anything to say, please write it down quickly." After reading the words on the paper, the four people looked at each other, and then hurriedly took them away. With the paper and pen in Wu Chongwen's hand, he started writing quickly.
