Chapter 531 531 Night(1/2)

Before Zhan Zhao and the others returned to Kaifeng Mansion, they were still clueless.

But who would have expected that when he arrived at Kaifeng Mansion and met Xiao Wang who was on duty, he actually found out the identity of one of the victims... and also narrowed down the scope of the suspects.

It was so smooth that it even made people feel a little suspicious. To use the Demon King's words to describe it, it was - a kitten can't be so lucky!

Putting aside everything else at the moment, there is a 70% to 80% chance that the deceased is Lao Liu who was working late at night. Zhan Zhao wanted to go to Lao Liu’s house.

Lin Yehuo couldn't stand it any longer, so he said to him, "It's already midnight, and you're still not sleeping? Why don't you wait until tomorrow morning? What can you find out if you go there now?"

The fifth master took Zhan Zhao back to Miaomiao Tower and asked him to go to bed early and take the fourth child with him during the day tomorrow.

After returning to the house, Zhan Zhao lay down and was still flipping pancakes on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep, so he asked Bai Yutang, "Yutang, do you think the murderer is really the dancer on the ship, or is this another scam?"

Fifth Master patted him and said, "Go to sleep, cat. We'll talk about it tomorrow morning."

Zhan Zhao turned over twice more and asked, "Looking at the way the body was dismembered, it seemed that the murderer wanted to conceal the identity of the deceased. But when he threw the body, he sang a song so loudly, it was like self-destruction. If this song is Sooner or later, we will find out the plays performed by the Huoyue Troupe."

Bai Yutang pulled the quilt for him, "Go to sleep..."

Zhan Zhao lay down for a while, then turned over again, "If it were the dancing girl on the ship who killed someone, would she hum her own song and throw the body away? Isn't it too unreasonable?"

Fifth Master was still a little sleepy at first, but now he was sobered up.

Holding his chin, Bai Yutang thought about the clues at hand. It was indeed very strange. It was impossible to guarantee that someone wanted to kill someone after watching the play. As for the nails, maybe they didn't belong to the dancer.

Just when he was about to discuss it with Zhan Zhao, Fifth Master lowered his head and saw... Zhan Zhao was already asleep.

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao with helplessness and envy - how on earth did he manage to fall asleep whenever he wanted, and fall asleep as soon as he touched the pillow?

Shaking his head, Bai Yutang also lay down. As soon as he touched the pillow, his vision suddenly went dark...

When the fifth master opened his eyes again, he found that it was already dawn and people were busy working around him. When he turned around, he saw that Zhan Zhao was folding quilts.

Bai Yutang sat up and felt refreshed.

The Fifth Master looked at Zhan Zhao and then at Yaoyao on the eaves. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he really just slept like this all night or whether he had entered another of Zhan Zhao's dreams.

Beside him, Zhan Zhao, who had finished folding the quilt, teased him, "As soon as I touch the pillow, I fall asleep. That's how it feels."

Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao in surprise - so it was you, Mao'er, who did it?

Zhan Zhao said with a smile, "I was in a daze last night when I suddenly heard you say, 'How do you manage to fall asleep whenever you want and fall asleep as soon as you touch the pillow?' So I pulled you to sleep with me..." "

Bai Yutang sat on the bed in a daze.

As a light sleeper, it is usually quite difficult for Mr. Wu to fall asleep, which is something he did not inherit from his grandfather.

But what Wu Master never expected was that the so-called "falling asleep as soon as he touches the pillow" actually meant that his eyes would go dark and he would lose consciousness as soon as he touched the pillow...

"What do you think?" Zhan Zhao leaned next to Bai Yutang and asked him with a smile.

Bai Yutang thought for a while, "It's as if I didn't sleep when I fell asleep..."

Zhan Zhao tilted his head and asked, "Did you sleep well?"

While talking, I looked at his face - it was clear that he looked very good! Sure enough, his skin would glow when he was full of sleep!

"It's not that I slept badly..." Bai Yutang felt it and felt that he was very energetic. This sleep was as good as a month's sleep. Even though he slept, he didn't seem to sleep at all. He felt like something was missing for some reason.

Looking at Zhan Zhao who got out of bed and said he was going to date his mistress, Bai Yutang suddenly understood - is this the reason why the cat is always energetic? Not to mention, he is actually a little hungry...

Bai Wuye, who somehow felt that he had been deceived by his sleep, got out of bed and washed up.

Because the Demon King and the others were not here, the yard in front of Miaomiao Tower was not as lively as usual today.

After a while, Zhan Zhao came with the fourth son. In addition to the fourth son, he also brought his uncle Yao Changtian.

The fifth master went out to the yard and took a look, and saw that his uncle had a stinky face.

Zhan Zhao said, "Zhao Pu has gone to the palace, Gongsun has gone to the Imperial Academy, and Xiao Liangzi and the others have gone to the golf course. Today the Tuan King and the White Ghost King are under our control."

Yao Changtian curled his lips - Who wants you to take care of it?

Because the Demon King is not here, everyone has to make breakfast by themselves in the morning.

The kitchen said there were steamed buns, but Zhan Zhao and Xiao Sizi both said they wanted to eat shaomai, so they all simply went out to have breakfast together.



Early in the morning, the city of Kaifeng was still bustling with activity.

When everyone arrived at Taibai Residence, Xiao Liuzi happily welcomed them upstairs, saying that it was unusual for them to have breakfast. Why didn't the Demon King make breakfast today?

Zhan Zhao nodded - has the old man's reputation for being good at making breakfast really spread?!

Went up to the third floor and met two acquaintances.

Fang Jingxiao and Lu Yuelan seemed to have just left the morning court and were sitting together to have breakfast.

These two are quite interesting. They wear official robes and go to court without riding in a carriage. They run around the streets...after all, they are young.

The two of them greeted Zhan Zhao when they saw him, and the glutinous rice balls and black rice balls on Fang Jingxiao's shoulders immediately flew towards the fourth son.

Everyone sat down at the table next to them. Lu Yuelan asked curiously, "I heard that a corpse was found in the nunnery last night?"

Zhan Zhao nodded helplessly, this message was passed too fast...

"By the way." Zhan Zhao asked Fang Jingxiao, have any birds said they heard people singing at night recently?

"I'll go to the Bird Garden to ask you after I move home later." Fang Jingxiao shook her head while holding a bowl of soy milk, "Actually, the birds are not too nosy, and they will hide and sleep at night."

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao were both puzzled and asked Fang Jingxiao if he wanted to move.

Fang Jingxiao and Lu Yuelan said that they were not moving, but that they were helping Taiwei move.

"Oh..." Zhan Zhao nodded. Speaking of which, Ye Wangyou finally fulfilled Zhao Zhen's wish and took over the post of Taiwei.

Mr. Bao also said before that with the Taiwei, he and the Grand Master would be able to do a lot less work.

Although the house in Ye Mansion is nice-looking, there are some very dangerous institutions inside. Ye Wangyou is a smart man, so he confiscated the house.

The original Taiwei's Mansion was considered a haunted house because of a murder case, and had been sealed up for demolition. Zhao Zhen very considerately chose a large house very close to Caifeng Tower to be the Taiwei's Mansion. He Wangyou must be busy these days.

In matters of moving and official handover.

The young master Yeqin also entered the Imperial College. He was one year younger than Bao Yan and the others. He was a talented man and had already played together.

Soon, the waiter came up with shaomai and wontons. Xiaoliuzi was setting the dishes while asking Mr. Wu about the opening of a winery in Baifu.

The Fifth Master actually doesn’t know much, but looking at the size of the orchard, his father’s winery should be quite big too. Is it because the three-two-one set of wines sell so well? If these three cups of wine are in short supply all year round, his master

Will he become an alcoholic?

Zhan Zhao asked Xiao Liuzi if he had heard anything about the Huoyue Class?

Xiao Liuzi covered his mouth and laughed, saying, Mr. Zhan, we are not in the mood to talk about this, we are all serious people!

The White Ghost King was eating Shaomai and asked, "Is that boat very improper?"

Xiao Liuzi held the tea tray and said in a low voice, "There are three, six, and nine types of boats. The four boats of gold, wood, fire, and earth are wild boats. They are not as simple as doing flesh and blood business!"

Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "Didn't it say it was a place to drink wine? Is it different from other ships?"

Xiao Liuzi wanted to say, but looked at Xiao Sizi again.

Bai Yutang helped cover the fourth son's ears.

The fourth son is also used to it, and even feeds the fifth master, who has no money left, to eat Shaomai.

"There are so many places to drink flower wine!" Xiao Liuzi said, "I have heard some rumors that Xiaoyaosan is sold there."

The chopsticks in Zhan Zhao's hand stopped moving, he raised his head and frowned, "Isn't Xiaoyao San a banned drug? Are you so bold to sell that stuff in Kaifeng City?"

"Oh, this is not a ship that belongs to Kaifeng City in the first place, and there is no evidence. It is said that it was made very carefully." Xiao Liuzi also looked disapproving, "Those ships always have something to show for every time they come.

things, especially gold ships and fire ships.”

Zhan Zhao asked him to elaborate.

Xiao Liuzi said, "The main purpose of the Golden Boat is to make money. It is said that the amount of money passed through in one night is more than the average gambling house handles in a year. There are many moneylenders here. Every time the Golden Boat comes, there are always several moneylenders."

Those who had to go bankrupt and jumped into the river were more than usual."

Zhan Zhao touched his chin, don't tell me... there seems to be some pattern.

"But compared with gold ships, fire ships are the source of all evil!" Xiao Liuzi shook his head and said, "It stands to reason that most of the painted boats are places for drinking flower wine. Some ships have better wine, and some have better wine.

There are many beauties, but those who have been on a fireship always say they go to the theater. I always hear people talk about going to see a theater on a fireship, but I have never heard anyone say that there is a particularly famous and good girl on the ship. But people who have been there

Well, some say they are boring, and some are obsessed with it and cannot quit. Every time the fire boat comes, I can hear that several families have lost their wives and children because the leader is addicted to the fire moon class.

"Then what kind of people usually go there often?" Zhan Zhao was quite surprised, because not only himself, but almost everyone in Kaifeng Mansion had never heard of anything related to the Huoyue Class. Logically, they were all relatively well-informed.

ah.

Xiao Liuzi shook his head, "Sir Zhan, in fact, Taibai Juli can hear very few things related to the Huoyue Ship. I feel that people who go to Huoyue Class to play don't like to come to Taibai Ju to eat."

"Where will we go to eat?" Zhan Zhao felt that he had eaten at every famous restaurant in Kaifeng, so there was no reason why he had never heard of it.

"They might not eat." Xiao Liuzi said half-jokingly.

"Don't want to eat?" The White Ghost King raised his head and asked, "Is he so awesome?"

"I don't eat at meal times." Xiao Liuzi explained, "I just go around day and night."
