Chapter 6 I won't embezzle it

There was nothing special about the second crime scene, and Su Xing finished the inspection in less than an hour.

Liu Yan was anxious, and when he saw Su Xing standing up, he hurriedly asked, "How is it? Did you find anything?"

After watching Su Xing's autopsy and the on-site search for Su Xing, he no longer had his previous prejudice against Su Xing and was even full of expectations.

Su Xing looked around and made a final check, and replied calmly: "Not yet."

Liu Yan was stunned at first, and his expectant face suddenly fell.

He really thought Su Xing had some ability, but after all his efforts, he got nothing.

Wasn't everything that just happened just an act?

After a moment of silence, he looked at Su Xing again and reminded him unhappily, "Mr. Su, I would like to remind you that there is only half a day left before the time the Regent gives you."

After all, he is the son of his colleague, and he doesn't want to see Su Xing die.

Su Xing pretended not to hear anything, remained silent and continued to look around.

Liu Yan was very unhappy. He snorted coldly and walked towards the door.

He felt like he was just wasting his time, playing house with a useless guy!

At this moment, Su Xing suddenly raised his foot and walked quickly in one direction.

Liu Yan was stunned because the footsteps were so sudden. He turned around subconsciously and saw Su Xing holding something and looking at it carefully.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Yan still walked over. After all, he still had some expectations for Su Xing.

But when I got closer, I saw that what Su Xing was holding was just an ordinary snuff bottle. Although it looked exquisite and was made of high-quality material, there was nothing special about it.

His heart, which had just been lifted, fell again in disappointment, and he looked at Su Xing with a hint of impatience: "Mr. Su, if you have finished reading, please leave. I have to go back to the Ministry of Justice to handle official business, and I don't have time to stay here with you!"

Su Xing heard it this time and answered simply, "Okay, let's go."

After saying this, he held the snuff bottle in his palm and prepared to leave.

"Mr. Su!" Liu Yan stopped Su Xing in a stern tone: "These are things from the crime scene, you can't take them away!"

He really overestimated Su Xing. Not only was he useless, but he was also greedy for small gains. It was really despicable!

Su Xing quickly explained: "Master Liu misunderstood, I want to take him back for examination."

"Inspect?" Liu Yan looked at the snuff bottle in confusion and said with disdain, "This thing has been inspected a long time ago. It is something that Lord Wang often uses. The contents have also been inspected. There is no poison."

He didn't believe Su Xing's words at all, and still felt that Su Xing thought the snuff bottle was exquisite and wanted to take it for himself.

This made him dislike Su Xing, and at the same time, he also looked down on him...

Su Xing was eager to go back and verify his guess. He didn't bother to explain to Liu Yan, so he said directly: "Thank you for your reminder, Lord Liu, but now that I am the one investigating the case, I have to follow my habits."

Without waiting for Liu Yan's response, he added with a half-smile: "Don't worry, Master Liu, I will hand this snuff bottle back to you intact when the time comes. I will never keep it for myself!"

He had long seen what Liu Yan was thinking and felt very unhappy. Although he was not a man of high moral character, he would never do such a thing as taking advantage of others.

It was really a bit too much for Liu Yan to misunderstand him like that.

Liu Yan's thoughts were exposed, and he naturally felt embarrassed, especially since the other party was his junior.

But he would not admit his mean intentions. Instead, he became angry because of the embarrassment: "It's good that you know it, otherwise I will never let you off easily!"

It was late at night, and the candle was still on in Ye Linghan's study. Through the paper window, one could clearly see his tall figure, sitting upright at the table, staring at something motionlessly.

His facial features were so profound that they were clear even when seen through the paper window, but because of the warm yellow light, they were not as sharp as usual, but a little softer.

Tianyi, who had just returned home, glanced at the figure on the paper window and asked Tianer, who was guarding the door, "Is the prince still awake?"

Tian Er shook his head, a trace of helplessness appeared on his strong face. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a voice from inside the house: "Is it Tian Yi?"

“Your Majesty the Regent, it’s your subordinate!” Although Ye Linghan couldn’t see it, he still showed respect.

After saying that, without waiting for Ye Linghan to speak again, he pushed the door and walked in.

Ye Linghan didn't even raise his head, his eyes still on the memorial in his hand, and asked calmly: "How is it?"

Tianyi answered the seemingly nonsensical question smoothly: "Replying to the Regent, as the situation investigated yesterday, there is nothing special about Master Su since he was a child. Whether at home or outside, his words and deeds are almost the same as what everyone knows. He is just a playboy who does not work properly."

After hearing this, Ye Linghan raised his head. Although he was looking at Tianyi, he had a thoughtful expression.

After a while, he asked, "Did you find out that he is interested in investigating the case?"

As he spoke, Su Xing's handsome face inexplicably appeared in front of his eyes...

"No." Tianyi answered confidently: "Mr. Su is only interested in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling..."

At this point, his eyes were filled with disgust and disdain. With such a good background and a bright future ahead of him, he chose to indulge in depravity. It was really despicable!

"What kind of books does he usually read?" Ye Linghan had a feeling of not giving up.

Book?

Tianyi was stunned for a moment, and then an unnatural expression flashed across his face: "Replying to the Regent, Mr. Su's bookshelf is full of..."

He was somewhat unable to continue speaking, and the unnaturalness on his face became more obvious.

"What is it?" Ye Linghan glanced at it impatiently.

Tianyi gritted his teeth and said in one breath: "They are all pornographic books that are not worth reading, and they are all related to homosexuality."

The already quiet study room suddenly became even quieter, so much so that even the sound of the wind outside became clear.

A rare look of daze appeared on Ye Linghan's handsome and cold face, but it only took a moment for him to return to normal.

“Got it.” Ye Linghan retracted his gaze and looked at the letter in his hand again, saying coldly, “Back off.”

Tianyi had recovered from the embarrassment just now and was about to leave when he suddenly stopped.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late. You should go to bed early."

There was obvious worry on Tianyi's face.

Ye Linghan didn't raise his head again, and just said calmly: "It doesn't matter, I can't sleep anyway."

The tone of these words was different from other times. I don’t know if it was because it was late at night and people were tired, but there was a hint of helplessness in them.

Tian opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, so he just opened the door silently and walked out.

But at the same time, Su Xing was sleeping soundly in the Ministry of Justice. There was a corpse not far away, but he was not affected at all and even drooled in his sleep.

The guards were all stunned. They had never seen anyone with such a big heart who could sleep so soundly next to a dead body. Could this guy be a fool?
