Chapter 519: Only One Day (Part 2)
This is simply pie in the sky.
Both of them were a little bit unbelieving. They looked at each other and saw the disbelief in each other's eyes.
Zhao Chengyin asked tentatively, "Then Lord Lu Yu, are you here to... provide testimony?"
Lu Yu nodded: "Not only that. There are also clues about the origins of those murderers."
This time Zhao Chengyin and Zhang Qian were really shocked.
"A clue? My Lord already knows their origins!"
Lu Yu's expression did not change. He just said, "This is your business. I am only responsible for providing the information I know."
Zhao Chengyin: “…”
Zhang Qian: “…”
The higher-ups did give a death order, handing the case over to Shuntian Prefecture for handling.
But they had no idea. Now that Lu Yu had finally arrived and obviously brought important news, why was he acting like it had nothing to do with him?
But there was no time to worry about that now.
Solving the case is important!
Zhao Chengyin immediately invited the person in: "Master Lu Yu, please tell me in detail."
Zhang Qian also reacted very quickly. He had prepared paper and pen in a moment and started taking notes.
Lu Yu took a look and quickly looked away.
"Today at 1:00 a.m., the carriage of the Ye Mansion was on Shiyan Street when it was attacked. The enemy leader first shot the driver with a dart, and then forced Miss Ye Er to get off the carriage."
"There are five people in total, dressed in black, with black scarves covering their faces, and they are very skilled."
Lu Yu paused as he spoke.
"You should have seen the appearance of those five people, so I will not go into details."
Zhang Qian, who was writing furiously, said: "..."
He looked at Zhao Chengyin in embarrassment, and Zhao Chengyin winked at him, so he stopped tactfully.
Well, this sentence should not be recorded.
Zhao Chengyin asked, "Master Lu doesn't know those people either?"
Lu Yu shook his head.
"They are not from the capital, and I have never seen them before. They must have been deliberately recruited from outside to carry out the assassination."
Zhao Chengyin was shocked: "How do you know, Lord Lu, that they are not from the capital?"
Lu Yu said: "Accent."
"accent?"
"Southern accent, probably from Yizhou and Quanchuan."
Now even Zhang Qian couldn't help but raise his head, unable to hide his excitement: "Master Lu, are you sure?"
This greatly narrows the search scope!
Lu Yu nodded.
"These five people came to Beijing half a month ago. After arriving, they stayed in two different inns. The four of them met at Qingyang Tower the night before yesterday. They must have received the order at that time and carried out the assassination today."
Zhao Chengyin and Zhang Qian were stunned.
This, this doesn't seem to be a simple "testimony" anymore, right?
Zhao Chengyin couldn't help but ask carefully: "It seems... Lord Hei and Lord Lu have found out some information?"
It has only been seven hours since Ye Chutang was assassinated in the morning. In such a short time, Lu Yu was able to obtain so much information. The only explanation is that the other leaders of the Black Cavalry have also taken action!
No.
It was that person who took action personally!
Moreover, by sending all the investigation results so directly, he clearly wanted to tell everyone that he was the one investigating!
Sure enough, Lu Yu did not deny his guess, and only said: "On the day they met, another man appeared and briefly met with one of them outside Qingyang Tower. As long as we find that person, everything can be solved."
Zhao Chengyin almost wanted to clap his hands in admiration after hearing this.
"Okay, okay! It will be easier to investigate with this clue! I will send someone out immediately to find that person!"
Qingyang Tower is quite famous in the capital, and the time is so clear, it is like pointing the way for them who are still in the fog!
Lu Yu raised his hand, took something out of his sleeve and unfolded it.
"Don't bother. This is the man's portrait. Just go find him."
Looking at the portrait, Zhao Chengyin and Zhang Qian fell silent again.
...What else is there to check? Why don’t the Black Guards just go and arrest the person? ?
Lu Yu said: "He must have disguised himself at the time, and this portrait is only for reference. But the figure of that person cannot be faked, you can look for it carefully."
Zhao Chengyin hesitated to speak.
Having said that, they already had the person's portrait in their hands at that time, so how difficult would it be to find someone?
Zhang Qian felt that after years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he had never handled such a simple case.
It's easy to do.
He omitted a few of Lu Yu's words in the transcript, secretly considering how to write it down so that it would appear that Lord Lu did not just throw the answer in front of them.
Lu Yu suddenly looked at him and said, "Just record what was said before."
Zhang Qian was extremely surprised: "Lord Lu?"
Zhao Chengyin was also confused.
"Wouldn't it be inappropriate to do so?"
He glanced at Zhang Qian's densely packed transcript and said, "If that's the case, we can probably arrest the person tomorrow—"
"Tomorrow." Lu Yu interrupted him.
Zhao Chengyin didn't react for a moment: "Ah?"
Didn’t the princess give three days?
If the case were closed tomorrow, everyone would know that the Black Guards had a hand in it!
That--
Lu Yu placed the portrait on the table.
"Tomorrow, this person must appear in Shuntian Prefecture."
"Whether dead or alive."
…
After Lu Yu finished speaking, he left, leaving Zhao Chengyin and Zhang Qian in silence for a long time.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhang Qian came back to his senses and asked with a complicated expression, "Sir, do you want to do as Lord Lu says?"
In fact, it is useless to ask this question.
Lu Yu came here on behalf of that person, and his words represent that person's intentions.
Zhao Chengyin picked up the portrait.
The ink on it has dried recently, which shows that it was just drawn.
Is this... the strength of the Black Knights?
In less than a day, the whole case was almost solved.
Zhao Chengyin felt mixed emotions.
"It's a good thing to be able to close the case so quickly, why not do it?"
Zhang Qian hesitated for a moment, "But if this happens, won't everyone know that the Black Cavalry has been dispatched?"
The Black Cavalry Guards are indeed very famous, but Chen Yanchuan has been very low-key since returning to Beijing.
At this time...
"Didn't you just say that he didn't want to make a big splash?"
This doesn't look like it, does it?
Zhao Chengyin's eyelids twitched.
How could he have imagined that!
The princess gave three days, but who would have thought that Shen Yanchuan couldn't wait even a day! ?
Zhang Qian didn't know what he was thinking, and pondered to himself: "In this case, the secret guards must also become open guards, right? Then wouldn't it be known to the world that he has been protecting Miss Ye Er?"
Who is worthy of his attention? Even if there is a "gratitude of saving each other", I'm afraid it is not enough, right?
Zhao Chengyin's brows jumped.
Zhang Qian touched his chin and said, "Sir, why do I feel that the prince has wanted to do this for a long time, but has never found the right opportunity before?"
Otherwise, how could he be so steady, accurate and ruthless?
They weren't even given a chance to breathe!
Zhao Chengyin looked up at the sky.
"Investigate! Investigate overnight!"
