Chapter 85 For a bad tomorrow
The atmosphere seemed a little anxious. Jilian had never seen Uncle Zehart's eyes like this... It was like the eyes of those bad adventurers who came to the weapons shop to buy weapons.
The gaze of a man whose hands are stained with blood.
"Nothing." Zehart shook his head, "Are you ready?"
Jiren had no choice but to nod, put his luggage on the table, and then took out a wine bottle.
"This wine..." Zehart frowned subconsciously.
Jilian stroked the bottle and said softly: "My uncle brought this back to Dad once before, and he only drank half of the bottle. I know Dad hid it under the bed, and he has always been reluctant to drink it... Now , the others are gone, and there is no use keeping it. Uncle, it was brought here, and now it can be regarded as returned to its original owner. You know, I don’t like drinking very much. "
"I'm interested." Zehart was silent for a while, then reached out and patted Jilian's shoulder, "I will come back to the capital to see you right away after the outside matters are settled."
"Uncle." Jilian raised his head at this time, "Let me have a drink with you, either as a practice or as a way to remember dad... Dad can no longer taste the taste of this wine. Here we are, I thought…I’d like to have a drink for him.”
"Okay." Zehart nodded, "It's rare for you to have this."
Jilian quickly fetched cups...three cups, and then poured some wine on each cup and distributed them to Zehart and Boss Luo.
"Do I have one too?" Boss Luo asked curiously.
"We can't let you watch us drink." Jilian smiled bitterly.
"Thank you then." Boss Luo smiled slightly.
They clinked glasses, but before they were about to drink, Jilian suddenly looked at Mr. Zehart and asked: "Uncle Zehart, did you go anywhere after leaving the weapons shop yesterday afternoon... No Go home?"
Zehat paused and said: "I didn't go back. I came back this time because of business. After meeting you successfully, I remembered to buy some goods. Speaking of which, during this time where I lived, Go take a look when you have time, you always have the key anyway."
Jilian nodded, and then added: "I heard from the people in the Security Department that someone saw you near where dad was killed last night..."
"What do you want to say?" Zehart frowned and his voice deepened slightly.
Jilian sighed and said with a sad face: "I was thinking, if only I could have met you before dad was killed, then maybe dad wouldn't have been killed." You and dad have such a good relationship , but daddy was killed near you...Uncle, don't be sad either. "
Zehart nodded silently, drank half the glass of wine in one gulp, and then took his luggage directly, "I'm leaving the city soon. You should take good care of yourself during this period. If you have anything else, I'll talk to you when I get back."
With that said, Mr. Zehart, the traveling businessman, was about to open the door and leave... But when he was leaving, he suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "Jilian, next time I come back, I will bring you something new and interesting." .”
Smile.
"Uncle!" Jiren walked out.
Zehart suddenly felt a little unstable at this moment. He shook his head vigorously, but felt that the world was spinning at this moment. He suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground.
When Jiren saw this, he dragged Zehat into the weapons shop again.
Boss Luo looked at the wine on the table thoughtfully, "Is there anything in this wine?"
I only heard Jilian say quietly: "It's a kind of ore powder. It's an auxiliary that Dad usually uses when forging weapons... If a person accidentally consumes it, he will faint and become paralyzed in a short time. But don't worry, your There is no cup.”
"So, you are planning to hand over Mr. Zehart to the Security Department?"
"I don't know." Jilian shook his head, "I haven't thought about it yet...but I can't let the uncle leave right now. After all, he is also highly suspicious. I...I can only think of this solution for the time being. When uncle wakes up, he will probably hate me to death."
With that said, Jiren carried Zehat on his back.
"Even if you imprison him, it's not an option." Luo Qiu said from the side.
"Then what can I do?" Jilian suddenly became more excited, "Hand him over to the people from the Security Department? If the uncle is innocent, how can I forgive myself in this life... let him go? ? But what if he is really...I can’t forgive Dad."
"If he tells you personally that he has nothing to do with this matter." Luo Qiu asked curiously: "Would you choose to believe it... Remember, he may also lie."
Jilian was wrapping Zehart's hands with chains and suddenly paused. He said quietly: "Then tell me, if you were me... what can you do? If... if you can't give me an answer, please don't do anything to me. practices that give more hypothetical evaluations.”
Boss Luo nodded and said apologetically: "Indeed, bystanders should have the awareness of bystanders."
He began to remain silent and no longer took the initiative to ask Jilian any questions...until Jilian completely trapped Zehart with chains.
"I'm sorry, my tone was a little harsh just now." Jilian breathed a sigh of relief and came to Luo Qiu's side, "I...I just can't control myself."
Boss Luo just looked softly and said: "At your age, you are already very good...at least, better than me before."
"Mr. Luo, you too..." Jilian subconsciously raised his head.
"Are you hungry?" Boss Luo smiled and said, "I'll go get something to eat... Don't look at me like this, I still have some experience in cooking."
"Here... there should be some dry bread in the kitchen, so don't worry." Jiren could only shake his head.
Boss Luo said casually: "My father said that no matter how bad tomorrow is, life will still be good... Only when life is better can we have the motivation to face the bad tomorrow."
Jilian opened his mouth, then smiled bitterly and said: "There should be bacon and vegetables in the kitchen...add an egg. Forget it, let me do it. After all, you are the guest."
With that said, after looking back at the unconscious Zehart, Jiren took a deep breath, cheered up, and climbed out of the cellar quickly.
Boss Luo also glanced at Mr. Zehart casually, and then planned to climb into the cellar.
At this time, a small head appeared at the entrance and exit of the cellar... The hair of the Alaya girl in white was hanging down, one by one, without any mess.
"What's the matter?" Luo Qiu asked with a slight smile.
Alaya, who was wearing only white clothes, took the initiative to reach out his hand and said, "My clothes are torn."
Boss Luo climbed out of the cellar immediately and asked curiously: "Is it broken? Where is it broken?"
I saw Alaya turned around at this time... It was indeed torn. From the back of the waist, the clothes were torn all the way to the buttocks.
"...I'm curious about how you broke it." Boss Luo shook his head and took off his coat first and put it on her.
Alaya shook his head: "I don't know. If it's broken, it's broken."
"Should I sew it up or replace it with a new one?" Boss Luo asked with a smile.
"Brother, what do you mean?" Alaya asked blankly after thinking for a moment.
"Then just sew." Boss Luo thought for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, people will choose to sew."
"Why?" Alaya asked in confusion.
Boss Luo said casually: "Because they believe that everything that is damaged can be repaired... not just clothes, but everything."
"Is that so?" Alaya shook his head: "Not all items can be restored. Objects that have exceeded the scope of repair will not be repaired again unless time is turned back."
"Rewinding time is too exaggerated." Boss Luo patted Alaya's head gently, chuckled and said: "They just... just hope so."
Alaya shook his head, then pulled Boss Lalo's sleeve and said softly: "This guy in the cellar smells like a dragon."
"Really?" Boss Luo nodded.
Alaya then added: "The bridge also smells like a dragon."
"I know." Boss Luo nodded, "Let's sew the clothes first and then talk about it."
…
…
On the street, guards could still be seen everywhere searching house to house. Even the Security Department car in which Tianren Mu was riding was stopped several times.
Suddenly, a figure got into Tianrenmu's car on the road.
"What's the matter?" Tianren Mu asked directly.
The subordinate who got on the bus on the way said quickly: "My lord, in the afternoon you asked me to go back to the Security Department to ask an astrologer to go to the bridge to check. The results have been obtained. Here is the report."
He sent a document to Tianren Mu.
Tianren Mu opened it and immediately frowned: "It's not a high-level monster...but, the breath of a dragon?"
"Sir." The subordinate said with a solemn expression at this time: "As far as I know, there are only two people in the royal capital who can possess the breath of dragon. One is Laura, the chief maid in the palace, and the other is …”
"Why don't you say anything anymore?" Tianren Mu looked at his subordinate who was hesitant to speak and said calmly.
The subordinate had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "As for the other one, I don't need to tell you, your Excellency must know it... the whole country knows it."
Tianren Mu snorted lightly, quickly put the documents away, and remained silent.
The subordinate did not dare to make any sound at this time, but judging from his years of experience in handling cases, he only felt that he might have been involved in a terrible whirlpool... This whirlpool actually involved the mainland dragon clan.
Time passed little by little.
Tianren Mu suddenly asked: "Is there any movement over there at [Locke's weapons shop]? Has Zehart shown up?"
The subordinate said: "Our spies have been stationed all the time, and we have not found anything yet. As for the several objects that your Excellency asked us to monitor, they have not left the weapons shop since they came back in the afternoon... Your Majesty, you said that the suspect Ze Will Hart really go to the weapons shop? If he is really the murderer, he should be far away at this time."
"Change the route." Tianren Mu suddenly said at this time: "Go to [Locke's weapons shop]."
The subordinate had no choice but to give instructions to the driver in charge of driving... Soon after, the Security Department's car arrived at [Locke's Weapons Shop].
Tianren Mu ordered people to wait outside, then he knocked on the door and walked into the weapons shop.
…
…
When he saw the second-in-command of the Security Department again today, Jilian's expression changed slightly... They had just prepared a sumptuous dinner.
"Sir, you...why are you here?" Jilian quietly calmed down and asked.
"Is there anything good going on?" Tianren Mu looked at it and asked casually, "Most people only eat so well during festivals."
Jilian glanced at Mr. Luo, whose face was as calm as water, and said sternly: "I think that instead of not eating anything because of the pain and starving yourself, it is better to let yourself eat better so that you can have more energy to face the meal. For the future life.”
"It's a good idea." Tianren Mu nodded, immediately sat down, looked at Boss Luo and smiled casually, "I think this person taught you."
"How did you know..." Jilian shut his mouth, and then said: "Master Tianren Mu, do you want to eat too? I will get you the blood tableware."
"Okay." Tianren Mu nodded: "I'm hungry anyway. I've been busy all day and haven't eaten anything... I'm tired."
"Right away." Jiren nodded and had to turn around to get something.
Tianren Mu was not polite at this time, he directly reached out to steal the food from the plate and started to eat it. While eating, he said casually: "A very bad assassination happened in the palace today, which caused a storm in the capital... …I remember you said that your identity document was lost somewhere, and if nothing happens these days, you should be careful."
"Mr. Tianren Mu, as the second chief of the security department of the royal capital, can you let me go like this?" Boss Luo put down the tableware for eating.
This heavenly being, Lord Mu, was stunned to steal a little food from every plate.
"There's nothing wrong with it." Tianren Mu chuckled and said, "Catching the assassin is only a matter for the palace guards for the time being... This matter is not under the control of our Security Department for the time being."
"Sir, are you here so late because something has been discovered about the murder?" Boss Luo suddenly asked.
"Hey, I don't have a clue." Tianren Mu shrugged, "I just had to go for a walk. After passing here, I came to take a look... I was thinking that you might also make some new discoveries."
At this moment, Jiren took the tableware back and placed it in front of Tianren Mu.
"No need." Tianren Mu said calmly: "I've eaten enough. I won't disturb you if I have nothing to do... Oh, by the way, Zehat didn't come to see you today, right?"
"No." Jilian answered quickly, not avoiding Tianren Mu's gaze at this moment.
"In this way..." Tianren Mu turned his eyes and nodded seemingly casually, but at this moment he suddenly frowned: "There seems to be some sound... down there."
Jilian's eyes couldn't help but change slightly at this time.
Just now, there was a sound and the source seemed to be in the cellar.
"Maybe it's rats." Jilian said quickly: "Rats often go to the cellar to steal food and poison one group to death and another to come back. It's quite annoying."
"I'm good at catching mice." Tianren Mu smiled at this time: "Let me help you."
Saying that, without waiting for Jilian to respond, Tianren Mu took his sword and rushed directly into the house. Jilian's expression changed drastically, he called out again and again, and quickly chased after him.
It's just that the second-in-command of the Security Department was extremely fast. When Jilian chased him to the cellar, Tianren Mu had already jumped into it... Jilian had no choice but to bite the bullet and crawl into the cellar.
But at this time, there was no sign of Uncle Zehart in the cellar... Jilian glanced at the broken chain on the ground and subconsciously let go, but he didn't know how Uncle Zehart broke it. He has such ability.
"I told you, they're just mice." Jilian walked aside and pointed to a small hole sealed with boards and said, "They should crawl away."
"Okay, it's fine." Tianren Mu smiled slightly and planned to leave. But before leaving, he walked to a corner and casually lifted up a piece of canvas covering the corner with his sword.
The canvas covered nothing more than some charcoal.
"Sir, what are you trying to do..." Jilian frowned and said, "I can't hide anything here, right?"
"It's okay, I'm just a curious person." Tianren Mu shrugged, "Okay, I really won't bother you anymore... Well, let's just finish reading here."
As he spoke, he used his long sword to open another piece of canvas.
"What's this."
But this time, what was covered under the canvas turned out to be a sword inlaid with precious stones, which looked like an extraordinary thing at first sight... In addition, there was a silver mask.
Jiren was also startled by what he saw in front of him.
"It seems that I have to work overtime tonight." Tianren Mu narrowed his eyes at this time, and pointed out with the sword lightning, "Mr. Jilian, are you interested in following me back to the Security Department... I now suspect that you and today It’s related to the assassination in the afternoon.”
