Chapter 46 The True Phoenix
On the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the official document of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs in the capital city was finally issued to the prefecture of Yingzhou years ago.In the list of new state officials, Shen Misheng's name was impressively listed.

On the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, Yayoi took Ah Qi to bid farewell to Zhou Yanyan, left Fuliang County, and headed for Xiuning, the prefecture of Yingzhou.

Xiuning County is two hundred miles away from Fuliang County, and Yayoi and Aqi arrived in Xiuning just before the first lunar month.

Zhizhou Feng Yuxiang sent someone to lead Yayoi to get acquainted with the entire state government office, so he gave her a Spring Festival holiday and asked her to come to work later in the year.

In the official residence in Xiuning County, Aqi was tidying up the room.While opening the bag, she asked the silent Yayoi who was looking at the scenery outside the window: "Miss, what are we going to do next?"

"Investigate the case." There was a trace of coldness in Yayoi's voice.

"Investigate the case?" Aqi tidied up the room quickly, while turning her head to look at Yayoi: "Miss, is this the case of Mrs. Zhang and Miss Biao?"

Yayoi let out a "hmm" and didn't say much.

She had finally waited until now, and now she has been seated in Yingzhou Tuiguan, and she will not wait for a moment anymore!

"But Mrs. Feng told Miss you to go to Yingmao after a year..." Ah Qi hesitated for a while, "Miss, you can go and check now, is it okay?"

Yayoi turned her head and glanced at her, and her answer was simple, but firm enough to be rejected: "Go to the execution room and read the file."

Seeing that Yayoi was so resolute, Ah Qi couldn't say anything, her hands and feet became more agile, and she took care of the room in a short while.

The punishment room was in the east wing of the backyard of the yamen, and Yayoi registered at the door, and went in to check the sealed archives.

The Zhang family extermination case happened in August.Now four months have passed, and things have changed. At that time, Qingxi County could not find any clues, so it had to seal up the files and send them to the state government office for archiving.

Yayoi quickly found the archives of the Miemen case.

Archiving is simple.

Because the Miemen case happened on a rainy night, there are very few clues left.More than [-] people stayed overnight in Qingxi County, but the next morning they were all found dead by knives, leaving nothing but blood.

The first person to report to the official was Boss Zhao, the hotel owner.That day the entire hotel was taken over by Zhang's family, and there was another thunderstorm that night, but no one heard anything at all, and the case was closed as "robbery".

Yayoi frowned and put the file back on the shelf.She walked out of the torture room, and the first thing she saw was Aqi who was waiting anxiously outside.

"Miss, what's the matter?"

Yayoi didn't answer her question, but asked her: "Ah Qi, today is New Year's Eve?"

Aki nodded quickly.

A cold look flashed across Yayoi's face, "There's no one on the road, so I'm on my way."

Aqi was taken aback.

"Let's go to Qingxi County to investigate the case."

Prince Liang's Mansion in the capital.

Duan Sinan was leaning on the couch in the study room, his eyes were lazy, he yawned, and lazily listened to the people on the couch reporting matters to him.

When he heard the name "Shen Misheng", his eyes finally lit up.

"Master, Shen Misheng has already joined the Xiuning Yamen. But today, a subordinate came to report that she left Xiuning again, and seemed to be heading towards Qingxi County."

The man respectfully reported.

Duan Sinan's eyes flickered.It's been two months since I saw her, but he really wants to see what Yayoi is like now.

He lazily stood up and asked, "Is anyone following?"

"Have."

"That's good. Keep an eye on her every day and report to me." Duan Sinan ordered and yawned again.

The hidden guard under the couch was curious, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.Who the hell is this Shen Misheng that made the master bother so much?

"What else?"

Duan Sinan leaned back on the couch, seeing that the hidden guard hadn't left, he asked again.

"Master, you have found Zhou Tingting's things that you wanted your subordinates to find earlier."

These words made Duan Sinan's eyes brighten.

"Found what?"

The dark guard respectfully took out a note from his pocket, bowed his head and handed it to Duan Sinan.

Duan Sinan slowly unfolded.

"True Phoenix."

Only these two words.

The ink is scribbled, and it can be seen that the person who wrote it was done in a panic.

Duan Sinan's eyes were dark, he slowly closed the note, and asked, "Where did you find it?"

"Zhou Tingting's nanny's house. She visited her nanny in the countryside a few days before she was killed and gave her a necklace. After finding her nanny's house, the subordinates found this note from the pearls in the necklace."

"Why did she leave this note to her nanny?"

Duan Sinan crumpled up the note and put it in his sleeve.

The dark guard slightly raised his head and looked at Duan Sinan, "The nanny said that Zhou Tingting had a sad face that day, so she gave her this necklace after much deliberation. At that time, the nanny thought that Zhou Tingting was reluctant."

"Understood." Duan Sinan waved his hand, and the hidden guard quickly retreated.

"True Phoenix..." he murmured.Zhou Tingting seems to have expected something bad, so she left this last clue in the world—but what did she mean?
The male is a phoenix, and the female is a phoenix.

Could it be—!
His pupils shrank suddenly.

"Hongjing! Prepare your horse, and go to the Sanjiang Commander's Office!"

 After a day off, I'm back again. Can anyone guess what this note means? If you guess it, there will be a prize~
