The Retirement of the Demon Lord

Chapter 698: Investigate cases overnight, be lazy all night

The night is deep, the stars are bright, and the earth is shining. Candlelight flickered in the office of Gongwei Division, and there were still people working.

A woman dressed in a slim martial robe, with a slender and exquisite back leaning against the window, staring into the distance, wondering what to think.

"I'm done." Li Mengyao put away a file and shouted to the man, "Shangrong, you are looking for me in a hurry late at night, what new discoveries have you made?"

The woman came back to her senses, turned her head and nodded, the glamorous Jiarong was so beautiful under the moonlight that it felt unreal.

"According to the investigation during this period, the means of handover between the Blackstone Club and the employer are very secretive. The Blackstone Club's station is disguised as an inn. There are countless rooms above, and people of all kinds are entertained from time to time. I guess one of them is to confirm the task. The completed employer. Also, the inn is often transported in and out by carriages, and after investigation, it leads to all directions, and the anti-reconnaissance ability is very strong, so it is difficult to find out where it is. I guess there are also teams that are sent to the employer for handover. " Li Changrong came to the desk and said to Li Mengyao.

As the unnamed commander of the Shadow Metropolis, Li Changrong dispatched the Shadow Metropolis to cooperate with the Gong Guard Division to investigate the murder of Mei Qianxiao. The most difficult thing at the moment is to figure out that Blackstone will confirm with the employer that the killer has completed the task, and she just summed up the results of the recent investigation tonight and hurried to find Li Mengyao.

"Since you have arranged for people to continue the investigation, it will not be too late to discuss this matter tomorrow." Li Mengyao touched Li Changrong's haggard face distressedly. The fanfare was enough to keep her busy.

Li Changrong shook his head: "An inch of time is worth an inch of gold, and an inch of gold can't buy an inch of time. This is the key point of this matter. If you miss it, the murderer will never be found again... Unless the imperial court declares war on the Black Stone Council, but this The price is too high. So I will come to you as soon as I report to the emperor, so as not to miss the opportunity."

"What did the emperor say?" Li Mengyao did not expect that the emperor would pay so much attention to this case, that they would report their work progress to him every day.

"If you can, then..." Li Changrong sighed.

Li Mengyao also sighed.

The emperor's meaning is very clear. If you can check it, you can check it. If you can't check it, it doesn't matter. He didn't plan to have a hard time with Heishi for a Jinyiwei. Even if it is to investigate, you can only start with the employer, and don't have a head-on conflict with Blackstone.

Whoever decides on this matter understands the trade-off between the pros and cons.

Li Mengyao felt that the emperor was interested in this matter, but he did not intend to be too anxious. It's right to think about it. Although Mei Qianxiao has just entered the emperor's eyes recently, it is not a pillar of how important it is to the court, and its importance is naturally limited.

Li Mengyao did not know that the emperor already knew the inside story, so he behaved like this. Since the emperor knew the identity of Mei Qianxiao, he naturally understood that the guy wouldn't be killed by a few third-rate killers so easily, and the headless corpse was probably just throwing a brick to attract jade. It's important to find out the murderer, but it's not worth it if you're exhausting your two precious daughters. After all, the murderer who targeted the mere "Jinyiwei" Mei Qianxiao would be a big fish.

"According to what you said, both aspects should be carefully checked. But if the employer does not take the items away after checking the results of the task in the single room of the inn, there is nothing we can do about him?" Li Mengyao returned to the topic.

"Yes. You can only keep an eye out for anyone who takes similar things away from the Blackstone Club's sub-station, and the rest is up to fate." Li Changrong said with a chill, "I have arranged for the person in charge to contact Jiang Hao's team, and relevant information can be timely. Share. As long as you find clues, you will be able to set up a net to catch everything!"

"Well, thank you." Li Mengyao smiled bitterly, "You are very concerned about this."

"After all, I was a colleague once." Li Changrong nodded, and suddenly looked directly at Li Mengyao and asked, "Is the headless male corpse sure that he is smiling?"

Li Mengyao's thoughts were complicated, and Li Changrong got up and left before answering.

"He won't die so easily, you should know better than me." Li Changrong answered her question directly.

Li Mengyao sent Li Changrong out and looked at the beautiful figure that disappeared into the night... It turned out that Li Changrong's trust in Mei Qianxiao was probably higher than her direct supervisor.

……

At the same time, in an inn room in Jiujiang Prefecture, candlelight flickered in the middle of the night.

What happened here is not as pleasing to the eyes as the two beauties of the Gongweisi are lighting up the lights and discussing matters. A man with long hands and feet is pulling him on the bed, and another man dressed as a beggar is pulling his long legs, intending to put him on the bed. Get out of bed.

"No... I said what the **** do you want to be, you stinking beggar, I want to sleep!!" Mei Qianxiao stretched out her other foot to kick Hong Qi away, but she was immediately caught under her arm and dragged out desperately.

After half a frown, Qianxiao raised his hand and surrendered. He was dragged to the ground by Hong Qi. He scolded and got up and sat on the chair. He poured himself a cup of cold tea: "Tell me, what do you want to do!"

It's not that Mei Qianxiao couldn't support it, but that the bed couldn't stand Hong Qi's squeaking loud noise... The two men only had one room, the next door knew it, and so did the shopkeeper... Hearing this sound effect, the ghost knows what monstrous waves are turning up in their hearts at the moment! Brother's reputation is still good!

"We hurried to Junshan. You didn't ride a horse, and you didn't go straight. You also said that you would come to Jiujiang to see the beautiful scenery of Lushan. Once you go around, it's one-third of the total distance... Only in this way can we go to Junshan in the year of the monkey! You wake me up, I can't bear it anymore, no matter whether you are the leader of the demon sect or the lackey of the court, you have to drive for me tonight!" Hong Qi said angrily.

"Hey, what a rare opportunity to sneak into the Lushan Waterfall to view it! Didn't we still understand the 'Lushan Shenglongba' under the waterfall together? How could you turn around and ungratefully despise the magnificence of Lushan!" Qianxiao taught in turn.

"I understand a ghost! Who despise Lushan, I despise you! Don't pull me into the water, I only see you screaming 'Wow, it's a waterfall!' How about playing with the water under the waterfall! People stared at you and shook their heads, and poems came out: The Milky Way is hard to see in the world, which makes sand sculptures go crazy... I only understand that you are a sand sculpture, okay?" Mei Qian smiled It's okay not to say it, but Hong Qi was furious when he said it.

He is a beggar who has not been in the business for a long time. After overcoming the humiliation of begging, he already feels that his face is strong enough. Compared with Mei Qianxiao, it is a world of difference! There are many tourists in popular tourist spots, and there are many literati and scholars present. Don't you think you are vulgar?

"Those are not important, just have fun! You don't have to be too serious if you can't understand 'Lushan Shenglongba', it's really nothing." Mei Qianxiao rubbed her nose, the cool tea taste really bad What's the matter, I even smoked my nose. Then I held the teapot tightly with my hand and took another cup. The tea in the cup was steaming hot~www.readwn.com~ I probed my nose and nodded with satisfaction, "The tea leaves. Too bad, you can barely drink it when it's hot."

"From the beginning to the end, I didn't understand what 'Lushan Shenglongba' is, I'm obsessed!" Hong Qizhong patted the table again, "If you don't go, I'll go by myself!"

"Hey, what's the hurry...why are you running to Junshan so early? Do you know who to troubleshoot?" Mei Qianxiao grabbed Hong Qi and pulled him to the chair next to him with only one hand, holding her with her left. The teacup that was on it didn't move at all, and the water surface didn't even make waves.

Hong Qi was stunned by Mei Qianxiao's hand. Although he didn't use his internal strength and Qinggong just now, he was pulled back without even giving a reaction to the struggle. His left hand was not even affected. Bottom out!

"I don't know! But the news that my father was in a coma has already spread. Even if we can't catch the murderer behind the scenes, we have to stop the Beggar Gang and Shangqing Guan from having a conflict. Isn't that what you said!"

"I said it, I'm not blocking it right now..." Mei Qian smiled lazily.

"Haha, I really can't see it." Hong Qi laughed in anger.

"Can't see it yet? Then did you see the Beggar Gang and Shangqingguan fighting?" Mei Qian smiled and said.

"No, but..."

"No need, but Daoist Qianyang has already passed, so the beggar gang will not fight with Shangqingguan." Mei Qian smiled and said to himself, "On the contrary, Daoist Qianyang's move has made the initiator more and more away from his own purpose. Far away, there must be a next move... We hide in the dark and wait for him to reveal his flaws."
