Chapter 245: Why Are You Sighing?

Lao Bai was dumbfounded, "Sir, Master He Zheng is your grandmother."

Is there such a tradition in the lineage of Li Guogong? It is so natural for children to stab their parents and grandmothers?

Gu Zhao had already dealt with Lin Weikang, but now he wanted to attack He Zheng, his direct grandmother?

And to still slap him with such a big label is a crime of annihilating the Nine Tribes.

Gu Zhao didn't care. "Don't worry, she has a big head and a strong neck. She can hold up any hat."

He Zheng herself was directly confronting the emperor, playing tricks on the prince just to protect the emperor. Is she still afraid of being accused of setting up a trap to sow discord between the father and son of the Tian family?

Lao Bai looked at Gu Zhao with an indescribable look, stretched out his hand to wipe his face, and pulled up the mask, "Okay, since you said so, sir, then I will do this."

"Anyway, if he still dares to silence us, I will make his case impossible to clear for the rest of his life..."

Lao Bai muttered as he walked down the steps. Before he finished speaking, someone over there shouted, "Sir, we have a new discovery!"

It was Xiaohe, a subordinate of Lao Bai, who was responsible for inspecting and searching for traces around the area where the leader of the secret guard died.

And now, he was raising his gloved hand, holding an oil paper bag in his palm.

Gu Zhao quickened his pace and soon surpassed Lao Bai.

She turned around and smiled, "Lao Bai, your legs and feet are not good anymore." As she said that, Gu Zhao reached out to help Lao Bai. Lao Bai happened to touch the cigarette pouch on his waist, and Gu Zhao's hand fell empty.

Lao Bai pulled off his mask, put one end of the pipe into his mouth, and sighed, "I'm getting old!"

Gu Zhao raised his eyebrows, took a few steps over, and came to the little crane.

She was just about to take the oil-paper bag from Xiaohe's hand, but Qin Xinglie reached out first and took the oil-paper bag from above her head.

Turning a blind eye to Gu Zhao's cold expression, Qin Xinglie put on gloves and carefully opened the oil paper bag.

He must have handled something of unknown origin and found it in a pile of corpses first to make sure there was no danger before giving it to Gu Zhao.

The oil paper bag was wrapped very tightly, and one layer after another was opened, showing that the original owner cared very much about the contents.

Gu Zhao wanted to get closer, but was pushed gently by Qin Xinglie. She could feel a force pushing on her from a foot away, making her take several steps back.

Although he knew that Qin Xinglie was afraid that there might be some dangerous medicine in the oil paper bag that would affect her when he opened it, Gu Zhao still couldn't help but want to glare at him.

He usually looks delicate and thin, and behaves well and coquettishly in front of her, but once something happens, he immediately turns into a domineering and decisive character, giving Gu Zhao no chance to choose at all.

This is true whether it's when you're being intimate or when you encounter these potentially dangerous things!

Gu Zhao snorted from his nose and decided to have a good talk with him later to let him know that he didn't like this. Even if he wanted to protect himself, he couldn't treat her like a fragile paper doll.

Qin Xinglie didn't know that Gu Zhao was thinking about talking to him. He just carefully opened the oil paper package layer by layer, revealing a booklet with a black cover surrounded by gold.

The booklet is only half the size of his palm.

Qin Xinglie relied on his five senses to confirm that there was nothing wrong with the oil-paper bag and booklet, and then handed them to Gu Zhao.

Gu Zhao took it and opened the booklet, his eyes twitching slightly.

The booklet was almost full of words, and she knew every word, but when put together, she had no idea what they meant.

This situation is not unfamiliar to her, because this is a basic skill that every member of the Control Crane Division will learn, code words, or secret words.

Under normal circumstances, you need to find the corresponding text in order to decipher these secret texts and understand their meaning.

Gu Zhao asked the little crane, "Where did you find this?"

Xiaohe was a little excited and pointed to the ground, "Here, right here!"

Gu Zhao looked down and saw that it was the place where the leader of the secret guard was kneeling.

After the body of the secret guard leader was carried away for inspection, the place became empty, but there were still large blood stains on the ground, as well as two long traces that were obviously lighter in color in the center of the blood stain but penetrated three thirds of the way into the ground.

It was the result of the secret guard leader kneeling here for a long time and exerting all his strength while being tortured.

Xiaohe refers to the position closer to the front of the long trace, where a small hole has been dug.

"That's where I found this oil paper bag." Xiao He said.

Gu Zhao glanced at him and nodded appreciatively, "Well done!"

The pamphlet that the secret guard leader had to hide before he died must be very important to him.

If we could figure out what was written in this booklet, it would be possible to deduce what the person who tortured him wanted to know, and it would be possible to deduce the identity of the real murderer.

Was the person who tortured the secret guard leader a third party?

Or was it that Xing Qiang had succeeded at that time and set up an incense burner here to commemorate the prince's biological mother, but something happened while he was torturing the secret guard leader, and a third party used hallucinogenic drugs, causing a huge melee later?

Gu Zhao took the pamphlet and walked a few steps forward to the back of the incense table.

She imagined that she was the one who tortured the secret guard leader, standing here looking at the secret guard leader who had been tortured to pieces and was unable to resist.

But the opponent was clearly at a disadvantage, but he had a proud smile on his face, as if he was the one who won.

Is it because he hid this pamphlet and thought that even if he died, the other party would not be able to achieve his goal, so he died with a smile like this?

Gu Zhao pinched the booklet in his hand and opened the pages again, trying to find clues to this article.
