The Emperor's Favorite: The Detective Queen is too arrogant

Chapter 24 The Sculptor
Ministry of Punishment——

When Lin Ling just arrived at the gate of the Criminal Department, she saw Ji Bai hovering at the gate, so she went up to meet him.
"Master Ji, why are you here?"

Ji Lang: "I am waiting for you here, I am worried that people outside this door will make mistakes"

Lin Ling nodded. It is true that she is an outsider without any identity documents, and she cannot enter the gate of the Criminal Department casually.

"Is everyone here?"

Ji Lang: "We're all waiting in the hall."

Lin Ling: "Okay, let's go in then."

Looking at Lin Ling's men's outfit, Ji Lang hesitated. Does the empress not plan to reveal her identity?
"Your Majesty, your outfit..."

Seeing Ji Bai's nervousness, Lin Ling joked:
"How? It's not worse than the emperor. I'll be your teacher in the hall later."

Ji Lang was shocked, this...how did this happen!Just about to say no.Lin Ling made a "shh" gesture,

"Blindfolded"

Ji Lang nodded and took Lin Ling into the lobby.

……

Lin Ling looked at the transcripts sorted out by the master before, and looked at the three people in the hall thoughtfully. It was late at night, and it was accidental that one of them was not sleeping at home when he was killed. It was indeed a coincidence to do it again, and there were witnesses. It is somewhat intriguing.

Two of the three are dressed in high-quality fabrics, one is thin and the other is fat, a thin man with a cautious look, a nervous face, the fat one drooping his head, and sweating constantly on his face, and one, very strange, looking When he got up, he looked like a scholar. He had not said a word since he came in, very calm, with a slightly sad expression.

Lin Ling picked up the pen and wrote the word "Li Fu" and asked someone to pass it to Ji Bai, who took a look at his jaw.Take a shot of the gavel——

"Where is Li Fu—"

A thin man on the far side was startled, and responded, "My lord, what are your orders?"

"What do you do for a living, where were you and what did you do when you were ugly yesterday and ten days ago? Tell me the truth."

Li Fu replied cautiously: "Sir, didn't you explain clearly yesterday?"

Ji Lang: "Stop talking nonsense, just say what I tell you"

Li Fu nodded quickly, and began to chatter about that he is the nephew of the owner of Yimihang, who is in charge of Mihang. The mother-in-law at home returned to her natal family half a month ago. Good old friend, after the accident in the crimson garden 10 days ago, it stopped for a few days, and I couldn't bear the loneliness and went to Xunhualou again. Who knew that something happened again, and when it was over, I complained that I had suffered bad luck these days!

Ji Lang couldn't help but hold his forehead, and slapped the gavel, interrupting him:
"Say the point!"

Li Fu was startled, a little aggrieved: "Yes..."

Lin Ling laughed, she didn't expect Master Ji to be so irritable, she thought about it, wrote a few suspicious time points and handed them to him.

Ji Lang: "I want to ask you, do you know Luoxi from Xunhualou and Lige from Crimson Garden?"

Li Fu: "Of course I know, who in this capital doesn't know each other?"

Ji Lang nodded as if satisfied with his honesty: "Did you see them the night they died?"

Li Fu shook his head: "No, I was in other people's rooms during those two nights, if you don't believe me, you can go to Xiaomei from Crimson Garden, and Cuicui from Xunhualou, I went to the brothel to find them. Speaking of which, those two beauties don't easily meet us ordinary people, and I only had a few cups of tea with them because of my relationship—"

Speaking of this, Li Fu suddenly became a little excited, "By the way, just two days before Li Ge's death, when I was looking for my mother to ask to see her in Crimson Garden as usual, I happened to meet her with the beauty Luoxi, I don't know What a piece of shit luck, these two beauties actually agreed to drink with me, even if it was only for half an hour, just think about it, it's really delicious." Li Fu's face was intoxicated.

Lin Ling glanced at Ji Lang and motioned him to continue asking.

"Why did they agree to drink with you?"

Li Fu smiled embarrassedly, "They said I was handsome"

"Pfft..." Ji Lang and Lin Ling looked at the place where the sound came from, Jing Yu?why did he come here?

Jing Yu walked over waving her fan, cupped her hands towards the hall, and said with a smile on her face:
"Excuse me, I'm here to take a look, you can do whatever you want," he said before sitting down on a chair beside him, took out two handfuls of melon seeds and started nibbling.

Ji Lang looked at Lin Ling silently and asked her meaning helplessly. Lin Ling nodded, not knowing what his intention was, so he could only let it go.

"Ahem... what else did they tell you?"

Li Fu frowned and thought for a while: "I didn't say anything, they asked me where I lived and what interesting things there are..."

"By the way, they also asked me if I knew the master who did the carving."

After Li Fu finished speaking, the fat man kneeling next to him looked surprised, and Lin Ling immediately motioned to Ji Lang.

Ji Lang: "Where is Wang Dagui?"

The fat man next to Li Fu quickly responded: "The little one is here"

Ji Lang: "What do you want to say?"

Wang Dagui: "I..."

Ji Lang gave a low voice, "Say"

Wang Dagui's face was sweating more and more, shaking his body silently, Jing Yu looked disgusted, threw the melon seed peel in his hand, and said leisurely:
"I don't know if our little baby is hungry, but such a big lump should be able to fill his stomach..."

Lin Ling raised her eyebrows, and everyone broke out in a cold sweat. No one in the entire capital knew that Prince Jingyu had a big boa constrictor, which he called "little baby" affectionately, but he didn't know what it ate...

Wang Dagui said tremblingly: "I said, I have also seen those two beauties, and they also asked me the same question."

"Master?" Lin Ling asked directly this time.

Wang Dagui: "Yes"

Lin Ling saw Wang Dagui's expression was different, the matter might not be that simple,
"How did you answer?"
