Fairy, I really am a villain!

"Hey, Master Fang, you have done your best, why blame yourself?" After comforting him, Li Wuji squatted down to take a closer look and continued, "As for the clue, the shape of the wound is quite strange, it seems to have been stabbed in..."

strange?

After several conversations, Fang Xiwen realized: Old Deng was slacking off, preventing him from continuing the investigation, and waiting for someone to come.

He didn't expect that even the great detective would have such an expression. He shook his head in his heart, turned around and made a gesture to Li Muyu.

The latter took a step forward and came to the front of the corpse.

"Master Fang, who is this?" Li Wuji stood up and made way.

Fang Xiwen said, "This is my sister. I thought she has been in the martial arts world for many years and has seen a lot, so I asked her to come over and take a look at the wound to see if she can find any clues."

Hearing this, Li Wuji stroked his beard and smiled, "So it's the famous 'Fairy Ling Jian', she is really outstanding, seeing is believing."

"Well," Li Muyou said perfunctorily, and said his inference after observation: "First, the murder weapon is a long knife, about the length of an arm, and about one-third of it is inserted into the body... The murderer has a good habit, and after stabbing it, he twisted it around before pulling it out..."

Fang Xiwen was secretly shocked when he heard this.

...What does it mean to have a good habit?

"According to my sister's description, this weapon seems familiar, Master Detective?" Fang Xiwen continued her words and turned to look.

"Well, it should be the sword of the city's imperial guards. Such a cruel and neat way of killing is not surprising if it is an old soldier." Li Wuji nodded and praised: "Fairy Ling Jian is really powerful. I am ashamed to be inferior to her."

"Imperial Guards?!"

"Yes. Logically speaking, there are not many people who can be equipped with imperial guards around them. As for the princes, they are not familiar with Lord Liu. How could they do such a thing?

It’s really strange, this case...”

Li Wuji was still talking about the same things.

"Also, Xiwen, look at his hand. There is no blood or wound on it," Li Muyou pulled him aside, "He was stabbed suddenly. According to a normal human reaction, he should subconsciously try to grab the murder weapon, but he has no trace at all."

"so?"

"This person should have been captured first."

"In other words, these people originally didn't want to kill Lord Liu, but because of the breakdown of negotiations or something, they killed him? In fact, it is not difficult to explain. After all, Taohua Villa is the property of the Song family, and--"

"Master Fang!"

Suddenly, Li Wuji interrupted him and waved his hand: "Everything needs evidence. How come Fang Zhubu said it as if he saw it with his own eyes? Even if we want to infer, there must be one or two physical objects to support it."

Hearing this, Fang Xiwen thought that the perjurer had already gone down, otherwise he could really give you some trouble...

Since the investigation of this case is led by Li Wuji, he insists on taking his time and delaying the progress. Fang Xiwen has no choice at this stage.

However, his purpose was not to investigate the case itself - even if he investigated the case to death, at most he would catch Song Canxing, and the result would be that this person would suffer.

Therefore, what he wanted was not the actual result, but the attitude of opposing the Yang Party.

"How about this," after talking nonsense for a few rounds, Li Wuji coughed, "Fairy Ling Jian, please go to the side room to take notes. I will discuss this with Master Fang for a while."

Hearing this, Li Muyu exchanged glances with him and turned away.

After she left, Li Wuji showed a kind smile on his face and patted his shoulder, but did not persuade him. Instead, he looked at the woman's back as she left and said with emotion: "Even Ling Yue's disciple is this old now. Time is like a knife, and every knife makes people grow old..."

Fairy Lingyue of the Sword Sect, Fang Qingxiao's master, is the person who best suits the image of a sword fairy in white.

Hearing this, Fang Xiwen cursed Lao Deng in her heart, but continued with a smile on her face.

Li Wuji simply doesn't want to take sides.

He neither wanted him to continue investigating nor tried to persuade him to give up. He simply acted like a senior and lectured on some big principles.

Soon, a man who looked like a servant came hurriedly, bowed deeply to Li Wuji, and said: "Master, the dean of the academy is looking for you. I heard that he has something urgent to tell you..."

"What's the urgent matter? Can't you see I'm handling a case?" Li Wuji immediately scolded him angrily, scaring the latter so much that he shrank his neck.

"Hey, leave this to me," Fang Xiwen seemed very "reasonable" and said immediately: "The detective is very busy and shouldn't be dragged down by such a small case."

"They are all human lives, how can there be any distinction between big and small? But since Master Fang is so responsible and concerned, my trip will not be in vain."

Li Wuji really wanted to take the step down, so he immediately left with his servants, as slippery as a loach.

With a sigh, Fang Xiwen came to Liu Zhuo's body, thinking about who to give the vacant position to, after all, he was his direct subordinate...

Suddenly, he had a subtle sense of disharmony.

At this time, Li Muyou was taking notes in the office. The detective had already left, and he was the only one left here.

Hey.

Something heavy fell on his right shoulder. It was a hand.

Turning around, I saw a very distinctive smile: the flesh on his cheeks seemed to be pulled upwards very hard, and his eyes were turned inward, which seemed even more hypocritical than a fake smile.

What impressed people most was his extremely unruly eyebrows, as if everyone in the world owed him something.

"Third Young Master, long time no see." The man's smile became even brighter.

Hearing this, Fang Xiwen also raised the corners of his lips, "Little Minister? How come you have time to come to the government office? This is not a place for you to stay."

"Where do you think I should be, Mr. Third?"

"Uh, any brothel in Shendu?"

"Bullshit, that was you!" Yang Tianxiu patted his shoulder with a smile, and looked down at the corpse, "It's quite lively, is it? The new official has three fires when he takes office?"

"Well, it didn't burn you, did it?"

"The Third Young Master is really good at joking," Yang Tianxiu shook his head and pointed forward, "Was the guy lying in front strangled to death?"

"He must have been hanged. We found a rope hanging from the beam," Fang Xiwen explained.

The two of them chatted and laughed, like friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time, and walked a few steps in the yard.

Yang Tianxiu said: "That is a really miserable way to die. It's like the breath is being squeezed out of the lungs bit by bit, and it can't be retained no matter what. The things in front of the eyes slowly turn black, and the limbs become paralyzed. First die a little bit, then die a little bit later..."

"Xiao Taifu knows a lot—"

In an instant, Fang Xiwen's hair stood on end, and he felt a strong breath of death. The rest of his words were cut off in his mouth, and a hand grabbed his neck fiercely.

click!

There was a crisp sound, and the two people in the yard were seen strangling each other's necks and staring at each other.

Fang Xiwen had been on guard for a long time.

“I know it very well.” Yang Tianxiu’s eyes were somewhat surprised, and he smiled: “I strangled many people to death out of curiosity, and I heard it from their last words.”

"Then you are really a beast." Fang Xiwen also laughed.

The human neck is very fragile.

Even with a body of nine orifices and even with some horizontal training skills, if he was caught he would still break with a single twist.

'With just a slight force, I can kill the person in front of me...' This thought came to me naturally and was extremely tempting.

No matter what the outcome was, at least I had broken the other person's neck. Even worse, it was a life in exchange for a life.

"let go."

Before he finished his words, a flash of cold light flashed out from the air and chopped towards Yang Tianxiu's head.

Before that, he had already kicked Fang Xiwen, who dodged to the side.

Tatata!

The two men let go and separated at the same time, and where they had just stood, there was now a man in white clothes, holding a shining sword in his hand.

Li Muyu casually swung his sword and stood in front of him.

"That was a close call. It shouldn't be such a joke, right?" Yang Tianxiu looked scared. "Xiwen and I were just playing a game just now. We were just trying to feel the feeling of being strangled, right?"

Fang Xiwen said: "Not bad, the little Taifu's neck feels pretty good."

Hearing this, Li Muyu lowered his wrist, but did not put away the sword. He still looked at him coldly.

"The relationship between the two siblings is really good. I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."

When crossing the threshold, Yang Tianxiu paused for a moment, his lips moving, "How about hiding under a woman's skirt for the rest of my life?"

Fang Xiwen responded in the same way, looking at his departing back thoughtfully.

Chapter 344: The Secret is Revealed, Qushui Literary Meeting

The day of the Qushui Literary Meeting.

Early morning, Fang Mansion, inner house.

Fang Xiwen opened his eyes and saw a beautiful sleeping face: the woman was lying on her side on the bed, with the quilt covering her shoulders, her hands stretched out and folded, and her lips slightly open.

'This is it, this is really addictive, right? I don't even close my mouth in my dreams...' he thought.

As they practiced together day by day, they explored each other's skills more and more deeply;

He could feel that Fang Qingxiao was making some adjustments to the Sword Sect's mental method. According to his two techniques - the Gao family's Shocking Book was considered superior, but the Eight-Nine Profound Art was the best of the best.

It was normal for the sister to realize something due to his unreserved sharing.

Just as Fang Xiwen was about to get out of bed, her sleeve was pulled. She turned around and saw those two beautiful lips approaching, shining in the morning light: "Don't leave, practice for a while longer."

"...No, you didn't even brush your teeth."

"With all nine orifices open, the inner world is a whole, and with the state of unity between man and nature, I have long been spotless," Fang Qingxiao sat up from the bed and said seriously, "Even if I don't take a shower for ten days, I will still be clean. If you want to complain, it's my turn to complain about you."

"Okay, okay, it's me who doesn't like to be clean."

"It's okay, sister doesn't mind you, come and give me a kiss."

"Look, look, you're not here to practice at all!"

Fang Xiwen finally got out of bed and slipped out to the yard to wash up, thinking about something in his mind.

Yesterday, the case of Liu Zhuo and Tian Qing was not concluded.

After Li Wuji was called away by the so-called "dean of the academy", he never came back, and later said that his unfilial son had something wrong and needed to be disciplined;

Later, Yang Tianxiu went to the house in person to give a warning, and perhaps he also took care of other people in the yamen. In any case, the case is still in his hands.

Unless you force it upwards...but that would have to wait until Fang Tianyu comes back.

"We can't go on like this, people have to be buried... These noble families are quite patient. Are they testing whether I have the strength to challenge Yang Tianxiu?
