Chapter 35 Oversight
In the middle of the night, it was drizzling.In Duan Sinan's room in the Fuliang county government building, there was a shadowy figure on the white wall.

"How is the investigation?" On the bed, in the dim candlelight, the man casually flipped through the letters and asked lazily.A pair of red sleeves splashed down, full of endless elegance.

"The queen...the subordinates haven't found any clue yet." The person under the couch hid in the dark, nodded slightly, respectful and humble.

"A bunch of trash!" The man suddenly became furious, and threw the letter in his hand heavily under the couch.The sound of heavy objects colliding is harsh, making a huge impact sound.The people in the dark did not see any fear, but lowered their heads even lower.

"It's the subordinate's incompetence!"

The man pondered for a moment, and then opened his mouth. Although he smiled coquettishly, his eyes shot out a cold light: "It's not that you are incompetent, it's that someone in the dark guard is too capable."

"Master! Could it be...?" The person under the couch turned pale with shock at this moment, and asked in disbelief.

"I've only been out for more than a month, but someone in the dark guard is ready to move. It seems that there are many people with different intentions in the palace." Duan Sinan sneered, "The queen always takes the lead on me every time. This time about Zhou Tingting, she Is there any reason not to intervene?"

"But, the subordinates don't understand..."

Duan Sinan interrupted him, with a stern look in the corner of his eyes: "Xiao Wu, how many years have you been with me, why haven't you made any progress? What don't you understand? Why did the queen kill them all? Or why didn't she leave anything behind? "

The person known as "Little Five" was silent.

"Did you forget? Her father is the most cunning left minister in Dazhou Kingdom. Before she became the empress, she was a well-known talented woman in the capital." Duan Sinan closed her eyes leisurely, and sighed, "She can use her brain casually, Then you'll know what to do without leaving any traces."

Xiao Wu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to speak again.

"If you want to ask why the queen killed them all? The Zhou family who used to be a staff member, and the Tang family who is about to marry General Xuanwu's mansion, which one of them is not inextricably linked with the former deposed prince? You, even these Can't you see through everything?"

Duan Sinan supported his neck with his hands, and looked sideways at Xiao Wu who was sitting on the couch. The candlelight flowed over his fair skin, leaving behind a series of radiant waves.

"The Zhou family was alerted, so they let the fake Xue Ningbi enter the mansion to cover the sky with one hand and collect the news of the year; the general's mansion was impenetrable, so Tang Ruoying could only be killed, and someone of his own could go in to investigate; The county magistrate seeks asylum. The queen originally wanted to keep her alive so that she could know the truth of the year, but now she is so impatient to kill her—"

He paused, his eyes darkened, and after a while, he continued: "Firstly, Zhou Tingting is keeping the secret of the past, and the Queen is only keeping her as a threat; secondly, it is because of my arrival, the Queen, she is afraid. "

In the dark, Xiao Wu raised his head with a look of shock on his face: "So so many people died in Fuliang County in the past month?"

"That's right," Duan Sinan nodded, and sneered, "She was demonstrating to me. She was one step ahead of me, and she couldn't find it, so she cut off all the clues for me."

"Then master... what should you do?" Xiao Wu asked hesitantly.

"What else can I do?" Duan Sinan raised his eyebrows, and under the red candle, his face was seductive and charming, "I asked the emperor for three months. I said three months, and I will be able to find out in those three months." !"

There was a strong hostility in the room.Duan Sinan narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a while, he ordered:
"Go and check Zhou Tingting's recent whereabouts. Check every silver village, restaurant, and jewelry store! Don't miss any corner! The queen thinks so highly of her, she must know something!"

"Yes."

The candles in the room flickered slightly, and the figure on the wall disappeared again.

**
On the second day, in the interrogation room of Fuliang Yamen.

After spending one night in the icy prison in the yamen, Cheng Yuan was no longer as handsome and refreshing as yesterday.His hair was disheveled and dirty, his eyes were swollen and dull, and he could tell from a glance that he didn't sleep well at night, and he was frightened and tossed and turned all night.

Yayoi stared at his limp head for a while, and finally said, "You like Zhou Tingting, don't you?"

Cheng Yuan raised his head slowly, with hostility in his eyes, and looked at Yayoi fiercely, with a hint of breaking a pot: "Yes! So what? Say I'm a murderer! Say it!"

Yayoi put her arms around her shoulders, walked around the chair Cheng Yuan was sitting on and walked behind him, leaned slightly, close to his ear, and whispered, "Do you want to avenge her?"

Cheng Yuan didn't speak, but he wasn't as manic as before.

"If you want to avenge her, think about it carefully. What happened when you entered the Shadow Academy that day?" Yayoi slowly raised her body, smiling slightly, staring at Cheng Yuan's side face.

After hearing this, Cheng Yuan finally calmed down and began to think seriously.

"You said that there was nothing unusual about you when you entered the Autumn Academy of Shadows, but why did her body appear on your bed just after you left the room? Huh?"

Cheng Yuan frowned, trying to remember.

There was a dead silence in the interrogation room.

Yayoi walked a little further away, leaned against the dirt wall, and looked at Cheng Yuan silently.Her face was hidden under the window, and her expression was not clear.

She heard a faint bell ringing in the distance, it was a temple on Fuliang Mountain.

Tang Ruoying's case was not settled, but Yanyan's sister was killed again.Yayoi remembered her guess about Duan Sinan's identity.Could it be because of him?Because of this mysterious person from the capital, Fuliang County ushered in an eventful autumn?
She was a little confused.

It seems that the sweet but not greasy fragrance of the glutinous rice balls from last night still remains in the mouth.In a daze, the appearance of a man eating glutinous rice balls appeared in front of his eyes again.Those bright red lips, biting the snow-white glutinous rice, made people feel that there was a scent of sesame seeds in the cell.

A bit of warmth in the late autumn rainy night.

Yayoi felt a strange feeling in his heart, and after careful investigation, he didn't know what it was.She raised her slender eyebrows slightly, why did she feel restless?
She was about to think about this feeling again, but her thoughts were interrupted by the slumped man on the chair.Cheng Yuan sat up straight and shouted like crazy: "I got it! I got it!"

Yayoi's eyes quickly fixed on Cheng Yuan.She straightened up all of a sudden, walked up to him, and asked condescendingly, "What do you remember?"

Ever since Zhou Tingting's body was discovered, Cheng Yuan's eyes had never been so bright: "The pillow and quilt on my bed are gone!"

 The relationship between the Queen and Fuliang County is gradually becoming clear. If you have any questions, you can also comment and leave a message!
