Chapter 158: The whereabouts are missing

Early the next morning, Liu Fanchen's carriage stopped at the door of the general's mansion. Wan Xin did not let Mingyue and Bai Zhi follow him when he went out today. She knew that if Liu Fanchen wanted to tell her some more secret words, they would not let them hear it. Instead of doing this, it would be better to go out alone, which would be more free.

Today, Chen Wan's new outfit is still very simple. She wore a beige long skirt with only a few dark flowers on the hem of the skirt. It can be said that it is simple and simple. Today, she combed a moon-chasing bun and a peach wood hairpin was inserted obliquely on it, so there were no accessories.

"I didn't expect that your dress would be so simple." I have never seen a girl who doesn't like to be stinky, and it's rare to see people like Chen Wanxin who dress up monotonously.

Chen Wanxin said distractedly, "Now that the people of Xiliang have just been freed from the war and are trying their best to solve the problem of food and clothing, Mr. Liu's carriage has become a scene in the city, so I will not take away the glory of Mr. Liu." Chen Wanxin's heart is now over the age of preferring to dress herself in bright colors. If it weren't too different from her age, she would have been willing to wear such a simple dress. It can be said that after coming to Xiliang, she felt that dressing and combing her hair was more suitable for her.

Liu Fanchen heard Wan Xin's sarcasm, but he was not angry. Instead, he stepped onto the carriage and slowly savored the hot tea that had been brewed. Wan Xin entered the carriage and immediately smelled the fragrance of tea, which was the smell of Mengding tea. No wonder Liu Fanchen didn't touch their tea in the restaurant yesterday.

Liu Fanchen also poured Wan Xin a cup of hot tea and pushed the tea cup in front of her. Wan Xin picked up the tea cup with both hands and picked it up in front of her nose and sniffed it. Smelling the fragrance of the tea leaves, Wan Xin's confusion deepened a little.

"It seems that Miss Chen is quite knowledgeable about tea. It seems that you already know what kind of tea this is." Liu Fanchen drank the tea in the teacup and then poured himself another cup.

Wan Xin sipped it carefully and put down the teacup, shook her head, "How can I understand tea? This tea leaves are fresh and fragrant, fresh and refreshing, rich and sweet. I would like to ask Mr. Liu for advice, why is this tea tea?"

Liu Fanchen looked at Wan Xin's expression, but didn't say anything for a while, and suddenly smiled happily, "I never thought that there was something Miss Chen didn't understand, haha."

Chen Wanxin stopped talking, and the two of them drank tea silently. Soon after, the carriage had stopped. Liu Fanchen jumped off the carriage first, lifted the curtain, and reached out to wait for Wanxin to come out. Wanxin saw Liu Fanchen's stretched out hand, and a warm current passed in his heart. He put his white and bright jade hand on Liu Fanchen's hand, and with his help, he got off the carriage.

After Wan Xin stood firm, he instantly withdrew his hand, "Thank you, Mr. Liu."

Liu Fanchen looked at his hand holding the air and felt that the girl's delicate and boneless touch was still there just now, which made him feel a little reluctant, "You have to be welcome."

Wan Xin looked at the scene in front of him. It was an ordinary people's home. The dark door was closed. Due to the age of time, the black paint on the door has fallen off, revealing the mottled wood color. The plants in the courtyard have grown out of the courtyard wall, and it can be seen that no one has built it for a long time, which is enough to see that the owner of this family is no longer in the mood to take care of these flowers and plants.

Liu Fanchen walked to the gate first and knocked on the door gently. There was no movement inside. Liu Fanchen felt that something was wrong and increased his strength to knock on the door. The courtyard was still silent.

"Get out of the way." Liu Fanchen said to Wan Xin in a low voice. Without Liu Fanchen's words, Wan Xin also realized that things were strange. He immediately took a few steps back and kept a safe distance from Liu Fanchen.

Liu Fanchen took a deep breath, raised his right leg and kicked the door panel, and saw the door panel falling in response. When the dust splashed from the door panel slowly dissipated, the scene in the courtyard entered Wanxin and the others' eyes. Wanxin couldn't help but cover his mouth with his hands to avoid making a terrifying call. Liu Fanchen also frowned and looked at everything in front of him. This was simply a scene in the Shura field. The yard was full of the smell of blood and the corpses were lying all over the ground. Liu Fanchen was afraid that Wanxin would feel uncomfortable with the scene in front of him. Unexpectedly, Wanxin had no strange expression and slowly approached the yard, looking at the bodies that had long lost their lives. Liu Fanchen did not expect that Wanxin was not afraid of these corpses at all. Although he was a little confused, he did not speak, but followed Wanxin into the yard.

"Eighteen corpses." Wan Xin's voice was no longer warm. She calmly described the scene in front of her. The youngest child is still in her infancy, and the oldest is already at the age of knowing destiny. "And they are all killed by one knife, and the knife is deadly."

Liu Fanchen looked at Wan Xin in surprise. He didn't expect that Wan Xin would actually analyze the case and be very clear. He really didn't know how many things this girl would surprise him. He felt that Wan Xin was like a treasure. If he kept touching, he would gain new gains.

"Do you know, which one is the person you are looking for?" Wan Xin turned his head and asked.

Liu Fanchen smiled bitterly, "I don't know either, and even if I know, it's already a dead body."

Wan Xin nodded in agreement, "Who did it? He actually hated him so much."

At this time, the temperature around Liu Fanchen was trembling enough to make people shivering. A bloodthirsty light appeared in his eyes, "I think you should have the answer, too."

Wan Xin nodded, and the two of them said a name in unison, "Second Prince."

"The murder in front of him is very similar to that of Landlord Liu's family. It seems that the second prince also got the news of Yu Jue. I guess he did not get the information he wanted, so he silenced the family, just like treating Landlord Liu." Liu Fanchen was very familiar with the scene in front of him. It was completely the style of the second prince. It is said that the second prince has the moral character, but he has no human nature at all.

"Let's go and report to the official." Wan Xin suggested that a major massacre occurred. Now there is only one way to report to the official. "And the yamen should have a registered population of this family. Let the yamen come and see it, so we will know if there is a living person." Wan Xin said this, but he had almost no hope for leaving a living person. The second prince is not only ruthless, but also has clear thinking. He will never let go of any oral job, even if this person is a hungry child.

Liu Fanchen nodded. At this time, he was already very depressed. He came to Xiliang from thousands of miles away. After finally getting news of Jade Jue, he was in vain now. He had to keep all this account on the second prince and play tricks on him. He would definitely make the second prince pay a heavy price.

Just as the two turned and left, Shen Wanxin stopped. Liu Fanchen looked at her in confusion. Wanxin came to the courtyard wall and stared at the wall motionlessly. Liu Fanchen saw Wanxin's actions and walked over. He found a pocket arrow embedded in the wall until he walked in. Liu Fanchen was slightly stunned and reached out to pull out the arrow in the wall. This arrow was small and exquisite, and the strange light emitted by the arrow could be concluded that this arrow was highly poisonous.

Liu Fanchen looked at Wan Xin, who had an unusual expression beside him, "Do you know this?"

Wan Xin suppressed his trembling body and nodded, "I know, this is Yan Jinfei's carry-on weapon."

After hearing this, Liu Fanchen raised his eyebrows. He did not continue to ask Chen Wanxin why he knew Yan Jinfei's close-fitting weapon. Instead, he smiled, "It seems that Yan Jinfei has become a weapon for the second prince to kill people. It is also, the situation in the capital is now that the second prince will not leave the capital. I am still wondering who he asked to move. If it is Yan Jinfei, it is not surprising." This time there were additional gains, and Liu Fanchen was quite satisfied with Chen Wanxin's discovery.

"Let's go to the yamen." Chen Wanxin walked out the door alone. She couldn't believe what she saw before her. The person next to her was actually an executioner. How could she be so stupid? She believed in such a man. Wanxin's sadness at this time was for herself, for her former stupidity and innocence.

Liu Fanchen did not disturb Wan Xin's thoughts. He could see this girl in troubles. But for a short while, Wan Xin escaped from the troubles and said word by word, "I want Yan Jin to pay for his blood debt."

Liu Fanchen raised his eyebrows and looked at the girl in front of him, couldn't help but smile, "Didn't this person leave it to me for disposal? What?"

Wan Xin looked at Yan Jinfei seriously, and a dazzling light burst out from his pupils, "Leave it to you, but you must let me see his ending, okay?"

Liu Fanchen looked at Wan Xin without saying a word. He felt that there must be some connection between Yan Jinfei and Wan Xin that he didn't know, but what he could confirm was that Wan Xin hated Yan Jinfei. After getting this answer, his mood improved for no reason and nodded, "No problem."

"Thank you." After saying these words, Wan Xin felt like she had lost her strength and leaned in the car without saying a word.

Liu Fanchen sent Wan Xin back to the general's mansion and went to report to the official. If the two of them reported to the official together, it would be difficult to explain why they went to that place together. It would be better to have less trouble than to have more trouble. The two agreed that Liu Fanchen would report to the official alone, and then notify him in time if there is any news later.

In the evening, a small yamen runner from the general's mansion came to him and reported to Xue Lanfeng respectfully that a major case was found in the city. The general wanted to solve the case overnight and would not return to the mansion today.

Xue Lanfeng held her stomach and muttered to Wan Xin, "What kind of big case can it be? Now that peace has just been restored in the city, where will there be big case?"

Wan Xin smiled without saying a word, and helped Xue Lanfeng into the house. She knew that it must be a case of extermination in Bai Ri. It seemed that Liu Fanchen had already alarmed the yamen, and the yamen had also visited the scene of the murder.

Three days later, Chen Qiang dragged his tired body back into the house. As soon as he entered the door, Xue Lanfeng said with pain, "Look at your face, I will definitely not sleep for a few days. I will boil water for you, take a shower, and rest early."

Chen Qiang held Xue Lanfeng's hand with some guilt, "This is the biggest family massacre in Xiliang City in more than ten years. I am not in the mansion these days, thank you for your hard work."

"What's the hard work? Fortunately, Wan Xin is with me. Her Mingyue and Bai Zhi are also good at working." Xue Lanfeng patted Chen Qiang's hand, his eyes full of pity, "I'll hurry up and prepare hot water for you and see what else to eat in the kitchen."

After Xue Lanfeng left, Wan Xin asked Chen Qiang in a tentative manner, "Brother, what is the massacre you mentioned?"

Chen Qiang looked at Wan Xin in surprise, "You can ask about this kind of thing too? Are you really afraid that I will scare you so much that you can't sleep if you say it?"

Wan Xin pouted and said, "I'm so brave. Brother, tell me quickly, what's going on? Have I not taken the streets recently?"

Chen Qiang had no choice but to say simply, "Xiliang City is still safe, but I don't know who this family has offended. All 18 people in the family were dead."

Wan Xin pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, "What? They are all dead. This is too inhumane. Who is the dead family? Have you caught the murderer?"

Chen Qiang sighed deeply, "I was angry when I said this, and I had no clue at all. It was quite strange to say who it was. The owner of this family was a famous human trafficker more than ten years ago. I don't know if he offended someone, so he was killed. Another strange thing is that the crime should have happened on the night before, and I received a report today."

After hearing this, Wan Xin couldn't help but breathe a breath in his heart. Sure enough, he had seen someone who had met Liu Anyang. If the speculation was correct, the second prince should have sent the traffickers to get information from Liu Anyang. However, thinking that he had killed Liu Anyang, he was so angry that Yan Jinfei killed the traffickers' whole family. "Who reported the case?" Chen Wanxin continued to ask alertly.

"I don't know this. The person who reported the case was not from Xiliang, but was delivering things to the family that was destroyed. We have investigated this and there is no problem." Chen Qiang's eyebrows were already frowning. No one could be happy when encountering such a difficult headless case.

Sure enough, Liu Fanchen did not report to the official position in person. Such a rigorous approach is indeed Liu Fanchen's style of conduct.

"I have said it many times. When I get home, don't mention the yamen affairs or official duties. Why did I forget it?" Xue Lanfeng walked in and heard the conversation between Chen Qiang and Wan Xin, and couldn't help but blame him.

"Okay, let's not say anything, please don't blame me, sir." Chen Qiang did not explain and immediately apologized according to Xue Lanfeng's words.

"I just knew that the bath water was already put in. You can take a shower first, and then eat some of them." Xue Lanfeng said helplessly to Chen Qiang without any temper.

Wan Xin did not intend to disturb the reunion of his elder brother and sister-in-law, so he found a reason to return to the house. She held the jade pendant in her hand and recalled the scene during the day. According to her elder brother, Yan Jin should not be left in Xiliang City!

Wan Xin's hand tightly grabbed the jade pendant, and the joints of his fingers were already white. He was rigorous. Are you ready to meet me?
