Chapter 62 The Covenant of the Second Prince

While the two were asking and answering, people from the Inspection Institute also came nearby, and they would come to this yard soon.

At this time, Lin Chen started to move. He first found two bullet casings in the yard and sucked them into his hands.

Then he came to Cheng Jushu's side, and there was a shock in his chest, and two bullets flew out of the wound.

Lin Chen stretched out his hand, and grabbed the bullet in his hand the moment it came out. Then he closed his hands, and the true energy gathered between his hands, shaking the bullet and the bullet case into powder!
With a slight flick, the powder drifts away with the wind, leaving nothing behind!

Just at this time, people from the Inspection Institute rushed in, more than a dozen of them, and surrounded the yard.

Seeing this, Fan Xian didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out a black token from his waist, "Here is the badge of Tisi, everyone go out and guard it! Don't come in without my permission!"

Tisi is a special position in the Inspection Institute. In theory, it is at the same level as the head of the Eight Great Divisions, but it has no real power, but it is very useful in some cases.

For example now.

"Yes! Your Excellency." Hearing this, everyone immediately bowed their hands, retreated to the door, and stood on guard.

The identity of Fan Xian's commissioner was known to everyone in the Inspection Institute. The reason why they surrounded this place was subconsciously. Now that the commissioner had spoken, everyone retreated immediately.

"My lord, you drove them all out, did you find something?" Wang Qinian asked in confusion.

It stands to reason that it should be a good thing that the people from the Inspection Institute are here now. After all, they are professionals. Maybe they will be able to catch some key information soon, which will be good for finding the murderer behind the scenes.

"I haven't found anything, but this is the scene of the first crime. Maybe there are very important clues that cannot be destroyed by others."

With that said, Fan Xian pointed to the left, and said to Teng Zijing, "Start over there and search to see if there are any clues. Wang Qinian, go to the other side and search this courtyard clean."

After the two did as they said, Fan Xian came to Lin Chen and whispered, "Brother Zhou, who do you think is going to kill me?"

Yesterday, Fan Xian talked to Lin Chen about his own situation, such as the hostile relationship between the second prince and the crown prince, so he asked Lin Chen for his opinion at this time.

"Who wants to kill you? It's useless to think about it? Who do you think asked you out?"

"Second prince!"

"That's it, it must be the second prince who wants to kill you!" Lin Chen said lightly.

"That's not right. The Second Prince asked me to go to Zuixianju today. Many people know the news. If I want to go to Zuixianju, I have to go through this Niulan Street."

"If I die, everyone will suspect that the second prince is going to kill me, and his suspicion is the biggest! He won't be so stupid, right?"

"So what do you think?" Lin Chen squinted at him.

"Both the prince and the second prince had reasons to kill me, and if it was the second prince this time, it would be too obvious! So I suspect it is the prince."

Hearing this, Lin Chen shook his head, "I feel like the second prince."

Looking at the puzzled Fan Xian, Lin Chen continued: "Fools commit crimes in a straightforward manner. Most people can understand the purpose and reason of their crimes, but it is completely different for smart people to commit crimes."

"They often use reverse thinking to commit crimes, that is to say, the more impossible it is, the more likely it is the truth. You need to use reverse thinking to think about the problem."

"Just like today, you think it is impossible to be the second prince, because you are the most suspected of being dead. And this is what most people think, but what if the second prince uses this kind of thinking of everyone to make a black man under the lights?" ?”

"I even think that the murderer is not the crown prince or the second prince, but another person. After all, this guy dares to design a murder in the capital, and he is not afraid of throwing the blame on the prince and the second prince. He must be very smart."

Lin Chen looked at Fan Xian, "What do you think?"

Fan Xian felt that there was some truth in this statement, but he was puzzled and said, "But the only ones who want to kill me now are the Second Prince and the Crown Prince."

"The eldest princess may also kill me. She doesn't want me to marry Wan'er, but she is also from the prince's school. According to what you said, it shouldn't be her."

"That's easier." Lin Chen said with a smile: "Both the crown prince and the second prince should be arrested, just ask them!"

"Ah?" Fan Xian was taken aback by these words.

Catch the prince?Capture the second prince?Dare to do such a thing?This Zhou brother is too tough, this is the capital, if this news reaches Emperor Qing's ears, the army outside the city will immediately surround his Fan residence!
"This matter is unacceptable, it's too dangerous." Fan Xian continued, "If Emperor Qing finds out, Fan Manor will be wiped out!"

"Oh oh. Forget that I'm not a lone ranger." Lin Chen always thought about problems according to his own thinking, but for a moment he forgot the relationship between Fan Mansion and him at this time.

Before he was sure of defeating the great master, Lin Chen still didn't dare to act rashly. After all, there was still a hidden great master in the palace.

"How about this, don't you want to go to Zuixianju to meet the second prince later? I'll go with you, find out, and see how this guy reacts!"

"Okay!" Fan Xian's face brightened.

At this moment, Wang Qinian and Teng Zijing came over, "I searched around, but found nothing, but the bodies of the two female assassins outside are being investigated by the people from the Inspection Institute, and there may be something found."

"It's only been a while, and the investigation can't find anything. Let's go first and meet the second prince!" Lin Chen didn't want to stand here for a long time, and was watched by a group of people around him, like a monkey.

Hearing this, Fan Xian said to Wang Qinian, "You stay in the inspection institute. If you have any news, come to Fan Manor immediately and let me know."

"My lord, this information must be confidential, and it must be checked by people in one place, me."

"Don't talk nonsense." A bank note was stuffed into Wang Qinian's hand, "Come and find me as soon as you have news, and come to Zuixianju to find me if I'm not in Fan Manor!"

Seeing the bank note, a kind smile appeared on Wang Qinian's face immediately, "My lord! Wang promises to complete the task."

"Brother Zhou, let's go." Fan Xian walked outside.

But at the same place, Lin Chen took another look at Wang Qinian. The superior asked the subordinate to do something, and he still had to ask for money?This guy is really the best. In the novel, it's all funny.

Niulan Street is not far from Zuixianju, just two streets away.

Zuixianju is by the river, and there are flower boats on the river. At night, this is the gold-selling caves of the princes of various families in Kyoto, and it is very lively.

However, Zuixianju usually does not open during the day and does not open until evening.

Of course, the place where the second prince made an appointment was not inside Zuixianju, but next to Zuixianju, in a pavilion standing in the middle of the river.

From a distance, Lin Chen could see that there were four people in the pavilion, three men and one woman!
