Gong Lianxue couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She glanced at Li Qingcha, then at Luo Weiyang, and said, "Mr. Li, since you are holding Xiao Hui, why don't you go to Zhaixing Tower with Miss Luo first?"
Li Qingcha was puzzled.
"Just send it to the carriage..."
"Zhaixing Tower is just a few blocks away from here."
"???"
I feel that Gong Lianxue is weird.
Li Qingcha was very surprised.
The girl chuckled, came closer, and whispered, "'Those who are not of my kind must have different hearts', that's a very good saying. Stupid senior brother, you won't leave Beijing until this case is resolved, right?"
Li Qingcha thought about it and hesitated.
Gong Lianxue pushed her.
"Don't forget, you are the heir of the Huajian School~"
Afterwards, she glanced at Luo Weiyang again before leaving alone.
Is it related to Huajian School?
Li Qingcha was really confused, so he turned to Luo Weiyang and said, "Let's go."
Luo Weiyang nodded, then shook her head.
"Mr. Li, if you have other things to do, don't worry about me. The Ministry of Justice has a carriage, and our Imperial Observatory's meteorologists have the authority to borrow it."
"It's okay, I'll see you off."
"..."
"..."
The two of them walked towards the Zhaixing Tower in the drizzle.
Xiao Hui poked his head out from Li Qingcha's arms and looked at the gray rain curtain curiously.
suddenly,
"Mr. Li, are you leaving Beijing?" Luo Weiyang asked.
"Well," Li Qingcha said, "Miss Gong told you?"
"You won't say goodbye to me either?"
"..."
In ancient times, transportation and communication were not well developed, and people often parted ways without a date.
Therefore, the ancients had such a strong sense of separation, and could not help but compose poems when bidding farewell to their friends, and many of them became famous throughout the ages.
Li Qingcha pondered for a moment and said, "I don't think I'll be gone for long."
Luo Weiyang insisted,
"Then say goodbye, too."
"Okay, take care, Miss Luo, but I'm holding a cat in my arms, so I can't do a fist bump."
"(ˉ▽￣～) Tsk~~, you are so frivolous."
Luo Weiyang winked at Li Qingcha cutely.
She said: "Hmph, I forgive you~"
Chapter 87 Fitting Route
The Ministry of Justice was very efficient, and the entire capital was under strict control, not even a fly could fly out.
Li Qingcha did not participate in specific affairs, so he had nothing to do. He continued to read various books, or went to the palace to watch the training of the Young Phoenix Camp.
On the third day,
She entered the palace again in the morning, read Sirou's book, and had lunch.
The palace dishes are so delicious!
Si Rou muttered: "You... humph! You went back to Yicui Tower after lunch. You really don't treat yourself as an outsider."
After saying that, she stretched out and half-lay lazily on the couch, raising her right leg so that the slit of her skirt was just a few centimeters above her right knee.
The degree of exposure is just right.
Li Qingcha complained in his heart that this girl was even more tea-like than himself.
Do not look at anything indecent.
She continued to read.
tsk...
Sirou smacked her lips.
"You, are you okay just showing up at the Young Phoenix Camp?"
"Yeah." Li Qingcha nodded.
"..."
"what happened?"
"I'm just unhappy with your self-righteous tone."
"I just like the way you are upset with me but can't do anything to me."
Sirou: (oへo╬)
She shook her fist angrily.
Li Qingcha asked, "Where's Yongjia?"
These past two days, Yongjia has been to the Young Phoenix Camp every day.
Sirou took the opportunity to complain: "Yongjia found your training boring because it only involves a few routines, so I went to the Imperial Garden to feed the fish today."
"Oh~"
"Hey, hey, hey! What's your reaction?"
"..."
"By the way, don't you think that the emperor hates you? Why did you enter the palace?"
"I am investigating the case under orders~"
Li Qingcha's idea is very simple.
Since the emperor is unhappy with me, I will go to the palace every day and lie on his feet like a toad.
Sirou could probably guess what Li Qingcha was thinking and rolled her eyes at her.
at this time,
"Your Highness!" a palace maid shouted outside.
"Speak." Sirou replied.
"There is a police chief from Jingzhao Prefecture outside the palace. He wants to meet Master Li to discuss the progress of the case. This is his token."
Sure enough, it came!
Li Qingcha suddenly perked up and closed the book.
Sirou stood up,
"I'll go as well."
She had long been curious about how Li Qingcha solved the case.
Li Qingcha accepted the token from the maid and headed straight for the southwest gate of the palace.
Captain Zhao was indeed waiting.
As soon as he saw Li Qingcha, he immediately ran up to him and complained, "Mr. Li, Mr. Li, Grandpa Li! You only need to talk, but we and the brothers from the Ministry of Justice have been running so hard that our legs are almost broken, and in the end we can only catch the prisoner's tail. Damn, it's so slippery."
"Ah."
Li Qingcha was secretly happy.
I have become an armchair detective.
At this time, Captain Zhao also noticed Sirou. Although he didn't know which princess she was, he could guess who she was by looking at her noble attire.
He saluted hastily.
Li Qingcha interrupted him: "You just said, catch the criminal's tail?"
“Well, we made a list.”
Captain Zhao took out a piece of paper from his waist, on which was the purchase details of various furniture materials.
Bristle brush, bamboo, wooden stand...
It can be seen that some bosses are very serious and record the time of each shipment, while some bosses are more rough and can only roughly provide whether it is morning or afternoon.
Li Qingcha looked at it and pondered.
“Are there any extra entries here?”
"We think it's not much," Captain Zhao said. "You know, when neighbors order furniture, they all look for carpenters they are familiar with. Such craftsmen rely on word of mouth~"
That's right.
Li Qingcha nodded secretly.
There are only a few carpenters in an area who will buy furniture materials. Of course, the boss will pay attention to new buyers, because if a newcomer can stir up the already solidified market, it means that his craftsmanship is really good and he will definitely be a big customer in the future.
This can indeed filter out redundant information.
Captain Zhao said: "We have checked some suspicious buyers. We not only found the people, but also the items. Now these are all we have left."
Li Qingcha nodded and asked Sirou, "Do you have paper and pen?"
Si Rou said: "Do you really think I'm your follower?"
That was true, but she still turned around and asked the maid to bring paper and pencil.
After spending time together, she also knew that Li Qingcha was good at hard pen writing.
Li Qingcha writes and draws,
"What is this for?" Captain Zhao
"Tabulation," Li Qingcha replied. "The horizontal direction is time, and the vertical direction is location..."
Captain Zhao took a look.
Indeed, it is much clearer than the text description.
But what happens after that?
"What's the use of this form?" Sirou had the same doubt.
"It's a kind of coordinates," Li Qingcha coughed lightly, "Anyway, we can mark it on the map and then fit a route. Where's the map?"
"here."
"Let me see……"
Now, officials who go out to investigate cases each have a map in hand, which makes them much more efficient.
Li Qingcha marked it with pencils, and then fitted a purchase route based on the time.
"What do you think?"
"Mr. Li, you are truly amazing!"
"Oh, you think it's simple."
"what?"
