Chapter 135 The Mystery
When Lin Yanyan came to Shuntian Mansion, it happened that Guan Sheng was about to go out.

"Lin... Mr. Zhen, Mr. Xiao is sending his subordinates down to invite you."

"What about others?"

"In the duty room."

Xiao Qian was staring at the dossier, tapping his index finger on the table.

"You looking for me?" Lin Yanyan came in.

There was a trace of astonishment in Xiao Qian's eyes: "How did you come so fast?"

Guan Sheng seemed to have just left.

"Oh, I happened to have something to look for you too, and I ran into Guan Sheng at the gate of the yamen." Lin Yanyan found a chair and sat down.

Xiao Qian sneered, and said to himself: "Is this a tacit understanding?"

Just as Lin Yanyan was about to pour herself a cup of tea, when she heard this, her hand slipped and the cup fell over.

Xiao Qian smiled wryly: he spoke in such a low voice, yet she could still hear him.

Xiao Qian walked over, took the teacup from her hand, and poured her a glass of water.

Lin Yanyan coughed dryly twice, just pretending she didn't hear that sentence just now: "Tell me first, what do you want from me."

Xiao Qiandao: "Qiu Rong confessed that the poison and drugs were bought from a man who sold dog skin plasters at a stall in front of the Town God's Temple. The first place was the market yesterday. I went to look for it, but I couldn't find anyone. The old man at the people's stall recalled that on the fifteenth day of last month, there was indeed a man with a mole on the left side of his eye who bought bone skin plaster at the stall there. He remembered that it was because the man took his place, and the two There was a quarrel, and I never saw that man again."

"So I went to ask Qiurong again yesterday, and Qiurong said that she went to the Town God's Temple with Feng Yichen, but they broke up because a small jewelry vendor said... The price of the butterfly hosta last time was the same. Qiu Rong saw a butterfly hosta at Bihan, so she questioned Feng Yichen, Feng Yichen admitted it, and left angrily. The man recommended poison to her, saying that rats would die if they licked it, and she hated Bihan, so she bought it."

Lin Yanyan pondered: "If you say it this way, it's very likely that Qiu Rong has fallen into someone's well-designed trap since he visited the Town God's Temple."

"Yeah, I think so too, but what is the purpose of this person borrowing a knife to kill people? Why does Bihan have to die? So, I checked Bihan's background again. Qi's mother in Liujing Pavilion said that Bihan was a prisoner Bihan’s daughter, Bihan’s surname is Zhang, a surname from the capital, I went to check the files of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and searched all the case files of criminal officials surnamed Zhang.”

"Have you found it?" Lin Yanyan asked eagerly.

Xiao Qian hooked the corners of his lips, smiling secretly.

If he couldn't find it, how could he have the nerve to invite her?

"Zhang Boqian, formerly a doctor of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Guangdong and Guangxi, was reported to be corrupt four years ago, and after being found out, he was imprisoned. On the third day of his imprisonment, he hanged himself in prison. Zhang Boqian only had one daughter, named Zhang Biru. She was as old as Zhang Bihan met. That Zhang Boqian likes to play chess, he is very good at chess, and my father even once played a game with him."

Lin Yanyan frowned: "He committed suicide again, and his death was a bit strange."

"Yeah, only the dead are the safest."

"Not necessarily, perhaps Zhang Boqian left behind." Lin Yanyan took out the copied article and map.

"I found this from the chessboard. It's a travel note and a map. It's about Mount Wo Niu, and it's also about Mount Wo Niu. Take a look and see if you can see the mystery in it."

Xiao Qian was surprised: "There is really a mystery, your intuition is quite scary."

"I was really at a loss. I asked Feng Hua to dismantle the chessboard, and that's when I found out."

Xiao Qian smiled, picked up the article and looked at it carefully, and then looked at the map. The more he looked at it, the more he frowned: "This is an ordinary travel journal, and there is no mark on the map."

"There must be a problem. You think that Bihan studies the chess record every day, maybe she is also comprehending its secrets. If it is so easy to find out, this thing will have fallen into the hands of others. You should take a closer look."

Xiao Qian thought for a while: "Do you still remember the mess that happened when Bihan died?"

Lin Yanyan nodded: "Remember!"

Xiao Qian put away the article and the map: "Let's go, let's go to Master Ji."

Master Ji heard Xiao Qian said that he wanted to borrow the chessboard and chess pieces, so he asked someone to take them.

"Yan Yan, you lay out the chess game."

Lin Yanyan fiddled with the chess pieces while recalling, and said after a while: "It's ready."

But does it work?
Xiao Qian said: "Look, there are 360 ​​intersections in Go, and this article is only 360 words."

Lin Yanyan's eyes lit up, okay, Xiao Qian's brain is really good.

Mr. Ji also got excited, picked up a pen to draw a chessboard, and filled in the word 360.

Lin Yanyan closed her eyes, and took the word 360 as an intersection on the chessboard, and then corresponded to the endgame.

Take out all the characters where the sunspots are, no, the words and sentences are messy.

He picked up all the characters where the white pieces were located, but it was still wrong.

no no no no...

If Zhang Boqian hides information in articles and chess games, it must be concise and to the point.

That map... seems useless!
Xiao Qian is also thinking, what secret is hidden in it?In what way can it be cracked?He believes that the general direction must be right, but the key point has not been found yet.

A flash of inspiration flashed in Lin Yanyan's mind: "Xiao Qian, do you know how to play Go?"

"Slightly understand." Xiao Qian said modestly.

"You point out where all the sunspots use the word 'seal'."

Xiao Qian followed his advice and clicked some sunspots on the chessboard.

Lin Yanyan closed her eyes, and picked out the words corresponding to those sunspots.Still not right.

"I want Baizi's 'seal' move."

Xiao Qian ordered a few more white stones.

This time, Lin Yanyan smiled: "I untied it."

The pen in Mr. Ji's hand paused, did he make a mistake?He only drew half of the chessboard, and Lin Yanyan solved the mystery?
Xiao Qian is also incredible.

"What is it?" The two said in unison.

Lin Yanyan paused every word: "Ya, Han, Yu, Le."

Xiao Qian and Mr. Ji looked at each other, and asked in unison, "The plaque of the Ministry of Household?"

Mr. Ji was deeply moved: "This Zhang Boqian is also a talent, who would have thought of that place?"

Xiao Qian nodded in agreement, never thought of it!

"Looks like I have to find Brother Nine for a cup of tea." Brother Nine is now working in the Ministry of Accounts Department.

While Lin Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief, she also felt deeply sorry for that Miss Zhang Biru. Zhang Biru may have been studying this chess game for four years, but she still failed to understand its mysteries. The map is just a cover.

But fortunately Zhang Biru didn't find out, otherwise he might have been murdered long ago, before she and Xiao Qian found out.

It is also a coincidence that Zhang Bihan left a move of the word "Feng" before his death, which not only reflected Feng Yichen, but also left clues for unraveling the mystery of the chessboard.

Maybe there is God's will in the dark!Miss Zhang, you can go there with peace of mind. If your father really has a grievance, we will avenge it for you.
