I picked up fragments in Tiantian Film and Television

Overnight, Dali Temple took over the case.

But Goldman Sachs Yao did not relax because the impact of the matter was too great. Every extra day it was delayed would put him in greater danger. Goldman Sachs cannot sit still and wait for death.

He went to the palace overnight and met with the Queen.

……

"The Thousand-head Demon Case is a big deal. Although I, Dali Temple, have no clue yet, how can we ask a death row prisoner to investigate the case? Mr. Gao, who is this Dugu?"

Gao Shengyao came with a will, and although Yuchi Zhenjin was dissatisfied, he did not dare to block it.

Fortunately, in front of Yuchi Zhenjin, Gao Shengyao did not dare to act like a supervisor. He explained with a smile, "Dugu is not his real name. Three years ago, he solved a Bingyi case in Xunyang County, Jiangnan West Road. .”

Yuchi Zhenjin frowned, "What is this Frozen End?"

"It's a kind of river monster." Gao Shengyao explained, "Back then, he was causing trouble in Xunyang County and specialized in killing the children of powerful people. Therefore, the imperial court ordered me to secretly release him from prison and give him the name Dugu."

While they were talking, two figures walked into the meeting hall.

"Sir, the death row prisoner Dugu has been brought here." The speaker was not from Dali Temple, but Ling Qianyue, the censor of Si Tianjian.

Standing next to him, the middle-aged man with unkempt hair and ragged clothes was Dugu, the death row prisoner who should have been executed.

Yuchi Zhenjin glanced sideways at Dugu and said nothing. Zhang Xun, the young minister of Dali Temple who was sitting on the other side, asked: "I want to ask you, are you really able to solve the Thousand-head Demon Case?"

Dugu glanced at Zhang Xun but said nothing.

Seeing his attitude, Dali Temple Prime Minister Ji Duodao, who was standing next to Zhang Xun, said angrily: "Why don't you kneel down when you see the Lord of the Temple?!"

Different from the attitude of everyone in Dali Temple, Gao Shengyao stood up and saluted Dugu, "Mr. Dugu, I invite you to come and ask for a favor this time."

Seeing this, Dugu finally spoke, "I am guilty of murder and it's time to return to the execution ground."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left without giving Goldman Sachs any face.

Ling Qian, who brought him, hurriedly stood in front of him, "Sir, you are violating the holy order."

Shen Haofeng, who used illusion skills to hide in the measurement without being discovered by anyone, was a little funny when he heard Ling Qianyue's words. He was a death row prisoner and his family members were all dead, so he still cared about whether he was disobeying the holy order?

Fang Xiaoru’s ten clans: “???”

All we can say is that Shen Haofeng still didn't get involved.

Dugu stopped when Ling Qianyue blocked him.

"This severe drought is from Guo to the sea. The wheat and millet harvests have stopped, and the people have perished. Although the imperial court has vigorously provided relief and disaster relief, rumors have spread because of the incident of the Thousand-Headed Demon." Gao Shengyao looked serious and asked Dugu's luggage again, "Please also ask Mr. Dugu helps us to appease the people."

If he hadn't seen the movie, Shen Haofeng would have been deceived by Gao Shengyao's superb acting skills. However, considering that he is Si Tianjian, who often goes on stage to pray for rain and deceive the people, it makes sense that his acting skills would be better.

It's a pity that now they can only deceive Yuchi Zhenjin and others who don't know much about them. Shen Haofeng, who has watched the movie, knows very well that Gao Shengyao and the two are just acting.

They know each other's ins and outs, and what they are saying now is all a test.

Dugu turned around and looked at the respectful Gao Shengyao, showing no mercy, "Since this Thousand-headed Demon was brought in by your tricks, shouldn't it be up to you to send it away with your tricks?"

Yuchi Zhenjin, who had always disliked seeing Dugu, suddenly felt that this person was somewhat interesting.

Yuchi Zhenjin, who relied on his true talents and learning to step up to the position of Minister of Dali Temple, naturally couldn't stand the "cheating" of Gao Shengyao. It's just that it's not convenient for him to say some things in his position.

Otherwise, where would the Queen be?

Hearing this, an awkward smile appeared on Gao Shengyao's face, "Sir, you were joking."

After staring at him for a few times, Dugu suddenly said, "I want to chat with you for a few words."

After hesitating for a moment, Gao Shengyao nodded quickly, "Please."

At the same time, he nodded to Yuchi Zhenjin and others, indicating that he would excuse himself for a moment. Yuchi Zhenjin made a sign of obedience.

They left, and Zhang Xunchao asked Yuchi Zhenjin, "Sir, is this case really going to be handed over to a death row prisoner?"

Yuchi Zhenjin's face changed. According to his temperament, who in the entire Shendu Yamen would dare to intervene in the case of Dali Temple? But Gao Shengyao came with a will, and he did not dare to disobey it.

"Send someone to follow and see what tricks they can find out." Yuchi Zhenjin thought for a moment and said lightly.

Zhang Xun nodded and said, "Ji Duodao, you will pick a smart servant later and let him follow them. If there is any trouble, come back and report at any time."

"Yes, sir." Ji Duodao responded quickly.

the other side.

Gao Shengyao and Dugu walked out of the meeting hall and arrived at a long corridor that no one passed by.

Dugu, who was walking in front, sat down on the steps, glanced at Gao Shengyao, an "old friend" he hadn't seen for a long time, and said lightly: "It is said that you can call for wind and rain, and you will succeed if you open an altar to pray for rain. How did you do it?" ?”

Gao Shengyao did not hide anything, "The so-called praying for rain is just a trick. I once bought a secret recipe from a mage..." Then Gao Shengyao told Dugu his method of praying for rain (written in the previous chapter) .

After listening to his words, Dugu pointed out the problem in praying for rain last night, "Someone saw through your trick and replaced the water with tung oil."

"That's right." Gao Shengyao approached Dugu, "That person knew the secret of my prayer for rain, and actually used it to create chaos in the world. Now everyone says that I attracted the monster. If the truth is not found out, I will It's a dead end. I don't dare to completely count on the people in Dali Temple, so I will..."

Before he could finish his words, Dugu, who was sitting on the steps, suddenly jumped up, grabbed his neck, and pressed him against the pillar. His tone was cold, "You killed my whole family, and you dared to let me out. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you first?!”

"If it weren't for the will from above, you would have been in prison long ago. I don't know whose handiwork it was, but it doesn't matter." Gao Sangyao, who was being strangled by his neck, tried his best to speak, "Do you want to save your daughter?"

Dugu, who was so angry that he didn't pay attention to what he said before, asked, "What did you say?"

"Your daughter is not dead." Gao Shengyao shouted back.

There is such a rift between the two, and Gao Shengyao still recommends Dugu in front of the Queen of Heaven, which shows that he really believes in Dugu's ability.

"Nonsense, I saw her fall off the cliff with my own eyes." At this time, she actually wanted to use such a cheap lie to deceive him, Dugu was angry. Gao Shengyao struggled to hold his hand, trying to catch his breath, "She fell off the cliff, yes, but when she fell, your daughter was hung by a tree on the cliff. Later, she fell into the hands of a trafficker. Here, you help me find out the mastermind behind the Thousand-head Demon Case, and I will tell you the whereabouts of your daughter."

Although he still had some doubts, Dugu still let go of Gao Shengyao.

Obviously, Gao Shengyao may not have any talent for investigating crimes. Not to mention people like Dugu and Yuchi Zhenjin, he may not even be able to compare with an ordinary Dali Temple policeman.

But he can take advantage of people's hearts.

For example, he calculated correctly that even if Dugu hated him, he would still agree to his request for the sake of information about his daughter.

This is indeed the case. For the sake of his daughter, even if there is only a glimmer of hope, Dugu will give it a try no matter what, even if it means seeking skin from a tiger. What's more, in Dugu's heart, it's not certain who is the tiger.

……

When Gao Shengyao and Dugu were discussing, Ji Duodao, who received Zhang Xun's order, also walked out of the meeting hall. But he hadn't gone far when he met Shen Haofeng.

Ji Duodao, who was not aware that he was shrouded in the demon closed space, "identified" at a glance that Shen Haofeng was the spirited servant he was looking for.

So when Gao Shengyao and Dugu came back, Yuchi Zhenjin had already left. Zhang Xun said to Gao Shengyao: "Master Gao, this officer is our capable officer in Dali Temple. Master Yuchi sent him to investigate the case with you and help you." A helping hand.”

Shen Haofeng's appearance is still very convincing. He is handsome, sunny and bookish, with bright eyes, a high nose, and a rosy face. No matter how you look at it, he is an intelligent and self-disciplined person.

Gao Shengyao quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Mr. Yuchi and Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Xun waved his hand, "The case happened in Shendu. Finding out the real culprit behind the scenes is my job at Dali Temple, so there is no need to say thank you. I know Master Gao is pressed for time, so I won't keep you here. Once the case is solved, What a wonderful story."

This was so in line with his wishes that Goldman Sachs couldn't let Dugu go, so he immediately found out the person behind the scenes, and he really didn't want to waste any time.

The four of them immediately left Dali Temple.

The trio of investigators, Dugu, Ling Qianyue, and Shen Haofeng, are officially paired.

At the gate of Dali Temple, Gao Shengyao saluted Dugu again, but without saying anything more, he turned around and left.

"Sir, where should we start?" Ling Qianyue frowned and looked at Dugu.

What's the point in asking? Of course, we need to go to the crime scene first. The detective movies Shen Haofeng watched told him that when there are no clues, you can go to the crime scene again and you may be able to discover some details that were ignored at the time.

Shen Haofeng had no interest in the mastermind behind the Thousand-head Demon Case, but he investigated Dugu and the others and was very interested in the people he met.

For example, Ye Tianzi from the night market, or the sister-in-law of Luo He, the dead deputy supervisor of Si Tianjian, etc.

Dugu said: "Take me to the place where Gao Shengyao prayed for rain last night."

"Okay." Ling Qianyue responded. Seeing that Shen Haofeng, who was traveling with him, had no objection, he started to lead the way for Dugu.

Crime scene.

"Mr. Dugu, the Dali Temple in this place has been surveyed several times, and there are detailed records in the files." Ling Qianyue said: "Let's go to the archives and take a look."

Like Gao Shengyao, Ling Qianyue also came from Si Tianjian and was not proficient in investigating cases. As long as the crime scene is not severely damaged, the value is obviously much greater than the file.

Dugu ignored his suggestion and suddenly said, "Tell me again about praying for rain that night."

"That night, Master Sitian Supervisor Zhenggao stood up from the altar to pray for rain. Deputy Supervisor Luo accompanied him. Thousands of people gathered at the scene. Halfway through the ceremony, tung oil suddenly fell on the platform, and countless heads appeared in the air." Shen Haofeng did not mean to speak, Ling Qian Yue had no choice but to tell him roughly what he knew.

Listening to his description, Dugu frowned and thought, "Human head? Or some kind of special mechanism and means? Created a weird illusion in front of thousands of people?"

Ling Qianyue had no way to answer this question and continued: "In a hurry, although Mr. Gao escaped by chance, Deputy Superintendent Luo was killed by the thousand-headed demon."

"Covering the head on a person's face, decapitating them, so many killing techniques, what is the murder weapon?" After muttering, Dugu walked to the cauldron money that fell on the ground, and used his sword to pick up a handful of the fallen ones. Put the incense ash in front of your nose and smell it. "The incense ash is caked together and mixed with a strange aroma. I'm afraid it's mixed with other substances."

Dugu said these words from the bottom of his heart and did not let Ling Qianyue and Shen Haofeng hear them.

Seeing his actions, Shen Haofeng looked at his nose and heart, but Ling Qianyue approached him excitedly, "Mr. Dugu, have you discovered anything?"

Dugu did not answer his question, but stood up from the ground and asked: "What was the sound of a human head falling on the ground that night?"

The sound of heads falling to the ground?

Ling Qianyue couldn't answer for a while, so Shen Haofeng had no choice but to say, "It's a crisp bang bang sound."

Whether it was the record of Dali Temple's inquiry or the scene, Shen Haofeng was very sure that it was such a voice.

Dugu reached out and knocked Ling Qianyue on the head a few times, "Is that the sound?"

"Judging from the description in the file, it shouldn't be such a voice." Shen Haofeng shook his head in denial.

Ling Qianyue, who was knocked on the head, didn't bother to ask Dugu why he tried with his head, and looked at Shen Haofeng with a puzzled look on his face, "What do you mean?"

"Whatever you guess means, that's what it means. Trust your intuition." Shen Haofeng said to Ling Qianyue.

On Dugu's side, no one said a word when he asked, and Shen Haofeng kept making secrets. His words were so confusing that Ling Qianyue couldn't help complaining, "Are you people who are proficient in investigating crimes so weird?"

Hearing Shen Haofeng's words, Dugu also glanced at him thoughtfully, but immediately turned around and said to Ling Qianyue without looking back: "You have time to talk about this when you have free time. Wrap some incense ash from the ground and follow me." Go somewhere.”

As soon as he left, Shen Haofeng followed suit. After looking at the ashes on the ground, Ling Qianyue muttered in a low voice, "I was sent by Master Gao to monitor you, not to be driven by you."

Just murmuring that what should be done must be done, he took out a square towel from his arms, sighed, wrapped the incense ashes in it and put it away.

After doing this, he quickly stood up and caught up with Dugu and the others who had already walked some distance.

This time it was Dugu who led the way.

It's not that Ling Qianyue didn't ask them where they were going, it was just that he was walking alone, wondering if he was thinking about the case, but he didn't reply to him anyway.

"Brother Shen, do you know where we are going?" Unable to ask Dugu, and unable to suppress his curiosity, Ling Qianyue set his sights on Shen Haofeng again.

Shen Haofeng smiled, "I don't know where he is going, but one thing is for sure. No matter where he goes, the purpose is to find out what is mixed with the incense ash."
