Let's talk about Si Qingyun going back to Tianyu to report. There is no way she could just go back straight away. She had to be more or less tactful to make her whereabouts less suspicious.

Therefore, Si Qingyun first lurked near the Tianyu Prison, and took the opportunity to wait for several colleagues who were traveling together to inspect the prisoners. She pretended to "meet by chance" and then reunited with her colleagues.

Afterwards, she said that she met a suspicious gangster at that time. He had a strange aura and was quite evil. He might be related to the demon's killing. But the incident happened suddenly and she was worried about losing him, so she didn't have time to contact Tianyu and has been following him until now.

It is normal to spend a long time fishing for such a big fish, and it is even more normal to come up empty-handed.

"Boss Si, have you confirmed the details of that person?"

The speaker was a petite female prison guard named Ding Jingjing. Although she was not very good in frontal combat, her "spider silk lock" could easily entangle the opponent's hands and feet, making it difficult for them to break free, and her defeat was immediate.

"No, that person was too alert. I don't know when he discovered me, and I lost him."

Si Qingyun made up stories with an expressionless face.

Another colleague expressed great regret, saying:

"Warden, you don't know that the suspicious person you are following may be related to the assassination case last night."

When Si Qingyun heard about assassination, she subconsciously thought of Chu Bu She and asked calmly:

"Brother... Prince Rong was assassinated again?"

Ding Jingjing waved her hand and explained the situation:

"It wasn't Prince Rong, but the old man of the Yin family was killed. I heard from the head of the police station that it was done by a warrior who practiced the magic of killing. We are going to the Yin Mansion to confirm the situation. Boss Si, you just came back, why don't you go back and rest first?"

If Si Qingyun continued to follow her colleagues in investigating the case, she would be able to better cover up her suspicious whereabouts.

She shook her head and said, "I'll go with you. Maybe there are some suspicious people hiding in Yin's house."

Chapter 60 Yi Yihan's Ghostback Mecha

This could be considered a bad start, as I encountered such a thing right after arriving at Yin's Mansion.

"What should we do now? Should we wait until another day or take the risk of being in the dark?"

Chu Bu She asked, and he left the decision to the girl.

Yi Yihan looked at the crowded and gradually "lively" Yin Mansion, and his two heroic eyebrows slightly frowned.

Naturally, the more covert their actions were, the better. Now that they had encountered such a big commotion for no reason, the safest option was to wait and see how things developed, but this could easily cause their plans to fail.

She and Chu Bushe had just teamed up to investigate Yin's Mansion, and suddenly something happened with the old man, so it is possible that she also came to explore the dark room.

She hesitated for a few moments before making up her mind:

"I want to continue investigating inside. It's just a coincidence that I ran into an assassin. If I play it safe at this moment, the secret room might have been emptied."

"I have the same concern, let's go in together!"

Outside the Yin Mansion, the yamen police teams and the city guards who arrived one after another blocked the area and protected the evacuated servants.

Compared to the strict discipline of the city guards, the captains had much more autonomy. While monitoring the scene, they couldn't help but complain and grumble under their breath.

"We had just been peaceful for a few days, and then we were woken up in the middle of the night. I thought it was Prince Rong who was assassinated again."

"I thought so too. I'm just unlucky. Every time I'm on night duty, Prince Rong gets assassinated. This time it's an accident."

"From this point of view, Prince Rong is really capable. The imperial concubine's family members were killed every time they encountered him, but Prince Rong is full of energy every time."

Chu Bushe took advantage of the fact that the blockade had not yet been fully formed and jumped over the wall with Yi Yihan to sneak in. Listening to the complaints of the captains of the police, he felt complicated.

I'm sorry, I was there again this time, but at least it wasn't caused by me, and I had nothing to do with the rain.

The Yin family members were worried that the assassin might be hiding in the mansion, so they did not dare to stay there for the time being. The empty mansion actually made it easier for Chu Bushe and his companions to sneak in.

The mansions of these wealthy families are built with great care in the distinction between host and guest, superior and inferior, and upper and lower classes. The rooms and study rooms used by the host must be in the most honorable positions.

Even though Yi Yihan was also unfamiliar with this environment, he was able to easily lock on to the general direction with the help of these rules and did not get lost.

When the smell of blood wafted faintly from a courtyard, the two knew they had found the right place.

In the dimly lit bedroom, an old man with white hair and beard but ruddy skin died in bed. The huge sword scar on his chest almost split his hunched body in two, and the dry skin on his back was barely connected.

The two young maids who were serving the old man and keeping him warm were implicated and died cruelly.

The old man of the Yin Mansion is a centenarian. As of tonight, he is 89 years old. He has witnessed the succession of three generations of emperors and has always had a great say in the Yin family in the capital.

Chu Buye quickly walked around the room, even checking under the bed. He made a rough assessment:

"There are no signs of things being rummaged through in the house. It doesn't look like a robbery."

Yi Yihan agreed with his point of view and said softly:

"Well, the deaths of these three people clearly showed that they were killed by the murderer while they were still asleep. After the murder, the murderer smashed the door and left in broad daylight."

The two had no intention of becoming detectives, but this news was good for them.

The murderer was not heading for the dark room, so it did not affect the two people's goals.

Chu Bu She searched the old man's pocket, but unfortunately he didn't find any suspicious "key".

“I don’t know what the people outside are waiting for. Maybe they are preparing to form a team before entering the palace to investigate.

Yihan, let's split up and look around the bedroom and study. If there are no clues, let's retreat first, shall we?"

As he spoke, Chu Bu She volunteered to go to the study next door to search.

Yi Yihan nodded, silently agreeing with his suggestion.

With the sudden situation tonight, it is enough to confirm that the bad guys are not heading for the dark room.

As the two men acted separately, time passed quickly and the officers and soldiers outside began to search the mansion.

When the head constable Yan Laoliu saw the Tianyu team led by Si Qingyun, he greeted them with a "long time no see" and then asked in confusion:

"Prison Warden, why didn't old fellow Wang Baoshan come?"

"I'm meeting my colleagues and I'm here first. Senior Wang will be here soon. How do you determine that this incident is related to the Heavenly Demon Killing Induction?"

Si Qingyun confirmed the situation as she walked.

"It was the maid of the Yin Mansion who said that she saw a strange man with three or four hands suddenly come out of Nanshan Courtyard, which is the old master's courtyard, and disappeared in a flash.

The maid went to check the situation and found the door wide open and the old man dead on the bed.

When Yan Laoliu received the report, he immediately rushed to the scene to take a look, and quickly left Yin's Mansion to assist the team in sealing off the area.

The captains of police can easily deal with ordinary warriors who break the law with force, but when it comes to some strange things or famous people in the martial arts world, the manpower reserves of the yamen are unable to cope with it.

It has become their habit to go to the government office for general problems and to the prison for special situations.

In the Nanshan Courtyard of the God of Longevity, Chu Bu She had already heard the noise outside and was ready to ask Shang Yi Yi Han to leave.

But his eyes were attracted by a wardrobe in the study.

At this time, Yi Yihan also entered the study, ready to pull Chu Bushe away. Seeing his reaction, he opened the closet and took a look. There were a few pieces of clothes and writing utensils inside.

Nothing special anymore.

The beautiful lady with black hair was even more puzzled and asked:

"No, what are you looking at this closet for?"

Chu Bushe couldn’t say that he had some “adventures” in the closet and now he would subconsciously take a few more glances at the closet, right?

But after taking a few glances, he actually discovered something.

"I don't understand why there is a wardrobe in the study. Even if it is for storing writing materials, there should be a special bookcase."

As he said this, he tried to push the wardrobe, but it wouldn't move at all because the wardrobe was fixed to the entire room.

has a problem!

Chu Bushe pushed aside the wardrobe and touched the wooden board against the wall. As expected, he discovered the world behind it. There was a low stone door about 1.5 meters high.

There was a groove on the door, which was obviously the so-called "key".

Yi Yihan looked at Chu Bushe in surprise, wondering how he had discovered the abnormality, and said:

"It turns out that the entrance to the dark room is here... Unfortunately, there is no clue to the whereabouts of the key to open the door."

Chu Bu She held Yi Yi Han's fair wrist, her skin was smooth and delicate, and the touch was so tempting that he couldn't let it go. He didn't lose focus and said:

"Yi Han, you have been strengthened, open the door!"

Yi Yihan's body immediately captured the familiar experience. Chu Bushe's power was "raging" and "stirring" in her body, reaching the most important meridians and bones of a warrior.

In just a moment, Chu Bushe quickly changed the woman's meridians into the shape he wanted.

Yi Yihan felt the muscles and bones in his arms and back, and suddenly he felt filled with strength and more powerful than ever before.

Yi Yihan helplessly raised her fist towards Chu Bushe and said faintly:

"Although I know you didn't mean to be rude or anything, please say hello first next time!"

It's really very sensitive to mess with other people's meridians.

There was no need for further explanation, Yi Yihan knew what he meant. She clasped the edges of the groove with her slender fingers and exerted force suddenly.

Even though her arm muscles did not become as strong and sturdy as "Jie Gui" in an instant, her strength had already surpassed that of warriors at the same level.

Through the thin black skirt that fits the skin, the back muscles of the cold woman twisted like a偃甲器, and this ghost back has a sexy and fit charm.

After Yi Yihan let out a muffled groan and a cry of strength, the stone door was forcefully opened by her.

Chu Bu She gave a thumbs up and said, "You are strong and powerful. Who says women are inferior to men?"

Yi Yihan's expression was not very good. She was not angry, but slightly depressed. She positioned herself as an elegant lady, not a fierce woman...

She glared at Chu Bushe and said coldly, "Forget what happened just now, or I will take back the gifted sword in five days!"

Chu Bushe could already understand her speaking style. Her intention of taking back the gifted sword should be "breaking off the friendship for five days".

It’s just that words like “breaking off friendship” cannot be used casually as a joke, as it seems like you don’t take friendship seriously enough, so we use a different way of saying it.

This is like a woman who always talks about "breaking up". She definitely does not take relationships seriously in her heart. She is just taking advantage of the other party's cherishment of the relationship to threaten and control them.

Because the noise outside was getting closer, the two of them decided to go into the secret passage through the low door.

The woman was in front and Chu Bushe was behind. They closed the wardrobe and covered the board back.

In the dark passage, Chu Bu She suddenly said:

"I'm sorry, next time I will definitely ask for your opinion in advance."

"It's okay... I've already forgiven you."

Yi Yihan's pleasant voice was heard, but his tone did not contain any anger or pursuit, but rather a hint of self-blame.

In the brief silence just now, the woman was actually thinking whether she had said too harshly. The two of them had just "reconciled" and Chu Bu She had no ill intentions.

Chapter 61: Qingyun Caught an Adulterer in the Closet

The secret passage was not as narrow as I had imagined. After passing the low door and walking a few meters, I suddenly found a spacious space in front of me, which was a long staircase leading to the underground.

The torches on the wall were covered with a thin layer of dust, and no one had visited for at least half a year.

Walking to the end of the corridor, there is another stone door. Yi Yihan once again demonstrated the spirit of "pulling down a weeping willow tree".

She pushed her long black hair back, arched her waist and exerted force as if she was wrestling with a bull.

When the stone door was forcibly opened, Yi Yihan brushed the dust off her hands and turned back into the ethereal, aloof and beautiful woman, as if the brute force just now had nothing to do with her.

I'm afraid the person who set up the stone door mechanism lock could not have imagined that his design could be broken by brute force.

However, there is really no other way. A normal warrior cannot just cultivate the brute force of his arms. He must take into account the balance of his whole body. At the very least, he must improve his physique compared to ordinary people. Otherwise, he will die if stabbed in the kidney by someone, which means his cultivation has been in vain.

Therefore, this kind of warrior with "extreme brute force points" was not within the designer's consideration.

The two successfully entered the underground dark room. Chu Bushe groped around in the dark and didn't know where to start, but Yi Yihan quickly found something on the bookshelf.

She just took a quick look at it and handed it to Chu Bu She.

"No, here is a letter written in blood, which is probably what you want."

Chu Bu She took the cloth written in blood. The content on it was roughly Yin Nanzhi's apology as an elder sister to her younger sister, for causing her sister to hide her own name and marry into the royal family on behalf of her sister. She also begged her younger sister to take care of her newborn niece.

The daughter-in-law chosen by Empress Tianwu turned out to be pregnant with someone else. This is a crime of deceiving the emperor.
