Madam, please respect my profession.

Chapter 60 Lin: At this moment, I feel like a wronged person

After the little maid woke up, the first thing she felt when she learned that the princess was missing was fear, and then she started crying.

"Stop crying!" Xie Chunyan smashed his sword on the ground and consoled them, "If you cry again, I'll sell you to a brothel right away."

The crying stopped suddenly.

You know what, Chun Ge is quite good at comforting people... Lu Zhan was too lazy to say more. He waved his hand in front of the two maids, and their expressions became dull.

"Did anything strange happen from the time the princess left Beijing until she disappeared?" Lu Zhan said, "Including whether the princess mentioned anyone, and the guards who accompanied the princess... Tell us everything."

The maid with a slightly bigger butt said, "The princess came to Jinling for Master Lin. Although the secret realm is good, she doesn't value it according to her status as a princess. Master Lin was the one she mentioned the most along the way."

Lin Hongwen's mouth twitched: "..."

"The prince was worried about the princess's safety, so he sent twenty experts to accompany her, but we have never seen them. They are protecting the princess in secret."

"This afternoon, the princess heard that Master Lin and Fairy Ningshuang were out, and she was so angry that she couldn't eat. She said she wanted to stay in her room quietly... During this time, the princess received a letter. After reading the letter, she seemed to be in a better mood and said she wanted to rest for a while."

"Cuizhu and I were guarding outside, and then I fell asleep without realizing it... I woke up here and heard you say that the princess was missing... How could the princess be missing..."

Cuizhu was the younger maidservant standing next to her, and she was crying blankly at this moment.

After the princess disappeared, the secret guards have not appeared until now, and there is a high probability that they have been killed. How could the other party kill twenty secret guards quietly without being noticed by the disciples of the immortal sect... Even Thanos would have to snap his fingers.

At this time, a colleague's voice came from outside the door: "Captain Zhuge, twenty bodies were found in a deserted house three miles away."

"I'll go take a look." Zhuge Chen's face was solemn.

As expected, they are all dead... Lu Zhan thought for a moment and continued to ask, "Do you know who sent the letter to the princess?"

"We servants don't know, but the person who delivered the letter was a servant from Tongfu Inn." Cuizhu cried, "I was the one who received the letter. It was a servant named Pojiao."

"That's Old Liu." Jiang Ningshuang put her hands on her hips and said, "Before you came, those people had already asked. Old Liu said that someone nailed a letter to the porch of the inn. He saw that it said "Princess Changyi" and delivered it over."

Xie Chunyan was unusually serious: "I'll go and bring him here."

Not long after, Xie Chunyan brought the man in by the collar. Lu Zhan asked him again using the hypnosis technique, and the answer was the same as what Jiang Ningshuang said.

Could it be that the letter was sent by Lin Hongwen's servant? Although the servant is most likely not number five, various signs indicate that the other party is probably related to number five. And the only thing that can make a heartbroken licker instantly happy is a bone given by the object of licking. Lu Zhan glanced at Lin Hongwen.

Being stared at by Lu Zhan like this, Lin Hongwen blushed: "It's not me, I didn't, I don't know!"

Lin Hongwen felt terrible, thinking that he was just unlucky. Not only had he made a fool of himself in front of his sweetheart, but now the princess' disappearance was related to him.

Ever since coming to Jinling, he has been living in some shadow.

"Maybe he used your name to lure the princess out, kidnapped her in the wild, and then released evil spirits in the inn to confuse everyone... How much do you know about that servant boy?" Lu Zhan asked.

With so many secret guards around, it would be very, very difficult to kill them all quietly and then kidnap the princess... But if the princess received the letter and sneaked out quietly, then things would be much easier. This could also explain why the bodies of the secret guards were not around the inn, but three miles away from the inn.

Lin Hongwen lowered his head: "His parents are both dead, and he was bought by my father to live in the mansion. He has been doing well."

As we all know, the beginning of a life without both parents is not ordinary... Lu Zhan asked, "Has there been anything unusual since he came to Jinling?"

"No... He helped me buy a demon corpse two days ago. He is very loyal." Lin Hongwen said.

Demon corpse... Lu Zhan suddenly thought of Number Five who was shouting in the group to buy a demon corpse. With so many coincidences, there was enough reason to suspect that the servant boy was related to the Black Water Sect. But according to Number Five's status in the Black Water Sect... the servant boy was probably a pawn of Number Five, not the real person.

Lu Zhan looked at the little maid again: "Besides Lin Hongwen, does she have any other acquaintances in Jinling who might be able to send her a letter?"

"No, the princess and I grew up together. The princess' friends are all in Bian Jing, and this is her first time leaving Bian Jing." The little maid said crying.

Xie Chunyan frowned: "So, Chunchun blames this boy for the disaster of beauty, otherwise the princess would not come to Jinling, let alone disappear... and would not cause us in the Demon Suppression Division to work here with our heads on the line?"

Lin Hongwen: “…”

Can a beauty describe a man? An uneducated, crude warrior... Lin Hongwen was very upset, but realizing the seriousness of the matter, he did not say anything, but felt like a wronged person.

Lu Zhan was thoughtful. The letter was the only clue at the moment. Unfortunately, the servant had run away and was currently being chased... There was no trace of the letter in the room either.

After asking all the questions he could, Lu Zhan walked out of the room and stared at the sunlight outside the window in a daze.

As soon as I got ashore, I was sent to this world to work. With the help of the golden finger, I can subdue demons and catch ghosts, and now I have to solve cases... Fuck, the key is that I was not a policeman in my previous life, and I am not a captain of police in this life... Damn imperial era... Lu Zhan output beautiful C language in his heart.

"How are you doing?" Zhuge Chen ran over and said, "I just checked. All the guards died of poisoning. The poison was very strong."

Lu Zhan shook his head: "The clue still lies with the servant, but professional matters need to be handled by professionals. What did the Jinling prefect find out?"

"I didn't find anything useful." Zhuge Chen was also a little annoyed: "Currently, we are investigating the enemy of Prince Pingnan... But this kind of thing is difficult to investigate. Every official has a few political enemies, and our arms are not long enough."

Lu Zhan was silent for a while, then said, "I'll go out for a walk."

……

It was late May, and the city of Jinling was filled with the gentle breeze and the fragrance of flowers.

The streets are lined with shops and the teahouses are bustling with activity. A few good friends sit together drinking tea. Occasionally, the sound of children playing can be heard in the wind. Lu Zhan walks along the long street with only the breeze caressing his face.

Lu Zhan went straight to the Jinling Demon Suppression Bureau headquarters. After showing his badge, he was able to pass through smoothly. He was led by the guards to the side hall and waited for Director Chu to come over. He had something to ask him.

"Are you looking for me?" A clear and pleasant voice came, and Chu Wantang, wearing a light green long skirt, walked closer. Her black hair was tied up in a high ponytail, and her pretty and bright face had a bit of heroic spirit.

Alas, when I have something on my mind, even a beautiful woman can hardly arouse my interest... Lu Zhan smiled: "No, I'm looking for the director general."

Chu Wantang was startled, and then said, "I have already sent a message to Master about Princess Changyi's disappearance... Although this matter is of great importance, you don't have to worry too much. Even if the King of Pingnan has the power to cover the sky with one hand, he has no right to deal with the Jinling Demon Suppression Division."

But it will cause trouble. When the superiors fight, the inferiors will always be the ones who suffer... Lu Zhan smiled and said, "How much do you know about Princess Changyi?"

Chu Wantang said in a clear voice: "Although I had some contact with her in Bianjing, it was not much."

Lu Zhan smiled: "Then I'll wait for Director Chu."

Chu Wantang pursed her lips and said nothing more. She left after saying "Just tell me if you need help."

When you are in a hurry, the waiting time seems especially long.

Lu Zhan thought for a moment, then sent his consciousness into the soul bowl and sent a message: "Is No. 5 here? Are you still collecting monster corpses? I just killed a fox monster."
