I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 6 Are you sure she is a woman?
  Can you solve the case with three copper coins?
  Cao An pretended to be mysterious in his answer, which whetted everyone's appetite.

Is it really some kind of strange magic spell from Si Tianjian? For example, divination and fortune telling?

The colleagues around him were talking a lot, but Cao An just smiled and did not respond.

Do you need copper coins to solve the case?

Of course not, but it is necessary to scare people.

If you want to make your inferences more intimidating, it is necessary to establish an enigmatic image.

Three copper coins are just right for my status as a high-ranking disciple of Si Tianjian.

Unexpectedly, Pang Shi frowned and became embarrassed: "Can three copper coins solve the case? It seems that Brother Cao is also a capable person, but I am penniless now!"

What! Penniless? Everyone knows that you are not so poor, right?
  Just as he was about to ask further questions, Pang Shi had already taken out a dozen banknotes from his arms.

"I haven't used copper coins for a long time, and I don't bring much silver for daily rewards. Who among you has any copper coins? Help me collect some."

Cao An:......

Well, you are still good at pretending.

Cao An watched numbly as several "poor" officials struggled for a long time. Finally, a new colleague took out the copper coins to end the show of wealth.

So next, is divination? Or ask?
  No, Cao An just took three copper coins and walked up to the suspects in the Jiaofang Division.

"Excuse me for being presumptuous, but I would also like to ask the three people who received my copper coins to take a step forward."

Is this going to be directly named?
  The senior government officials who were watching around all frowned in surprise.

Interrogation pays attention to efficiency, especially when time is tight at this moment. Some links can be omitted. Since you want to name someone, why do you need to borrow copper coins?
  "You guys don't understand. By borrowing this copper coin, Brother Cao is probably going to use a long-lost secret technique: [Sanqing Asking for Directions]." Pang Shi started to advocate loudly from behind.

"[Sanqing Asking for Directions]? The name sounds very powerful? What's the use?"

"The first question is to ask the heart, the second question is the soul, and the third question is the sentient beings in the world. This is the long-lost Taoist secret technique. It is said that Si Tianjian has copied a copy, but no one has learned it for hundreds of years. I didn't expect it to be found in Brother Cao today. See."

Pang Shi, who was slightly drunk, had already shouted "Brother Cao" one after another. With Zhu Xian beside him who was admiring him, the two of them almost blew Cao An to the sky.

Fortunately, with this, Cao An's idea of ​​building momentum has been initially completed.

He walked leisurely past the servants who were being interrogated. To everyone's surprise, he stopped next to the two maids and dropped the copper coins in front of them, which made the maids tremble.

Then he came to the soft couch in the hall and looked at Mubai Oiran with deep eyes.

Everyone looked stern. Could it be that Mubai Oiran also had a problem?

Ahem, sorry, she's fine.

It's just that this posture of lying on the soft couch with her shoulders slightly exposed is really eye-catching. I can't help but look at it for a while. Don't pay attention.

ding~~
  Cao An raised his hand and threw the last copper coin into the air, and it landed accurately on the bustard's hand.

"This, this matter has nothing to do with the slave family, sir!" The old bustard was so frightened that he knelt down.

Look at the inhuman servants and handymen on the side. Once they are targeted by the six doors, they will shed their skin even if they die. She is a pimp mother who wants to go to Qiuyuan to eavesdrop on the walls and understand the preferences of some guests. , I don’t want to get involved in this case!
  "You will know whether it is yes or no. All three of you, please stand up."

Cao An's actions naturally confused the onlookers. A six-door team leader even frowned and asked: "Brother, are you mistaken?"

"Oh, what went wrong?"

"The unclothed thief was a male. Several people witnessed it with their own eyes at the time, so there is no way of lying."

Cao An pursed his lips, tried hard to suppress his smile, and replied: "It's true that the unclothed thief is a male, but are you really sure that these three are all female?"

Everyone:! ! !
  What Cao An means is that someone is pretending to be a woman?
  Even managed to hide it from the powerful alliance of the Six Gates, the Tsing Yi Department, and the Demon Slayer Department? is it possible?
  "possible!"

Pangshi, who was behind him, reacted immediately. "We usually distinguish gender, mainly based on physiological characteristics. But there are so many secret techniques in the world, it is not difficult to change your voice, change your appearance, and disguise yourself. A more accurate way is to judge through the yin and yang energy."

Zhu Xian, who was on the side, obviously didn't want to think anymore, scratched his head and asked: "Didn't you just say that two disciples of Si Tianjian came here and used [Qi Watching Technique] to look at it? They didn't find any problem!"

"No, they found a problem, so they gave the evaluation of 'yin and yang are confused and muddy and difficult to distinguish'."

There is no virtual scholar under the famous reputation. Perhaps the [Qi-Wang Technique] has already discovered the clues. Unfortunately, the environment of the Jiaofang Division is too complicated, so this clue has been covered up.

For example, Mubai Oiran's body is mixed with the aura of six men.

Lenovo Mubai Oiran's work nature does not sound inappropriate at first glance. Everyone thinks it is a combination of 0 and 111111.

However, upon careful consideration, it is possible that it was a pure bayonet fight between 1 and 11111, but the feminine aura of 0 was borrowed from it.

Of course, considering that all the people present are experienced people, there should be no possibility of taking the wrong path, so the person who has no guests in the boudoir tonight is the most suspicious.

Considering that the thief needed a certain amount of time to disguise himself after escaping into Qiuyuan, the two maids responsible for boiling water and serving food, as well as the madam wandering around, are the most suspect.

At the time of the crime, none of the three had any witnesses, and they were targeted by Cao An's [Choose one of three suspects].

But the biggest problem now is that these three people have been refusing to admit it. They knelt in the middle of the hall and cried bitterly, and were willing to prove their identity in public.

Could this confident look really be such a realistic disguise?

It doesn't matter, the evidence will show up.

"Actually, from the very beginning, I had doubts about why such a meticulous plan to steal official seals would resort to the risky method of committing the crime naked."

"Especially since your Qinggong is extremely high, you should leave directly over the wall from the Spring Courtyard after you succeed, instead of going around to the front hall."

"It feels more like it was done deliberately."

"If my guess is correct, you must have deliberately made some noise after the theft was successful, so that the Minister of Servants would notice you. Then you pretended to be panicked and fled to the front hall, where dozens of people were married to your son. testify."

"Finally, I relied on my powerful Qinggong skills to escape to Qiuyuan. I quickly changed into a woman's dress and added seams to my clothes. It's really a beautiful design."

In a few words, Cao An's reasoning came to an end, and it sounded reasonable.

However, these words did not cause much disturbance at the scene. Everyone was just waiting quietly for the follow-up.

After all, Six Doors is not a bunch of losers. Of course, they have also imagined similar situations. They can even make up hundreds of such stories, as outrageous as they want.

Conceivables are conjectures, and investigations are investigations.

The entire Jiaofang Division was searched, but no official seal could be found. Thinking that the thief had extremely high qinggong and was very reasonable, he should have escaped over the wall of Qiuyuan.

Cao An's inference must be based on the fact that among these three women, there must be the male thief.

This way of solving the case is more like knowing the answer in advance and then pushing back the story line.

"That's why I say that Brother Cao is so powerful! To be able to see through the disguise in the chaotic aura of the Jiaofang Division, just based on the level of this [Qi-gazing Technique], it requires at least thirty years of hard training."

Pang Shi was still playing, leaving the surrounding masters stunned.

Looking at Cao An's age, he must be in his early twenties. He has been practicing hard for thirty years? Have you started practicing cultivation since you were in your mother’s womb?

Of course not, he just has a powerful detective system. Unfortunately, even if he basically restored the incident, he couldn't produce any evidence.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the prisoner knows it.

There was only one thing Cao An had to do: pick up the jade cup on the wine table, drink the water and wine in one gulp, and take advantage of the hot wine to slam the jade cup to the ground.
