The system jumped to me

Prison

Fang Duobing clung to the cell door, shouting for people to release him, even revealing his identity as a detective. He shouted for a while, but no one responded.

Unable to attract the true master, unable to negotiate, and with the guards pretending not to hear, Fang Duobing even complained of being exhausted.

Li Lianhua found it annoying and told him to stop shouting.

Fang was ill and looked very anxious.

"Then what do we do? Just wait like this?"

"You're a detective from Baichuan Academy. When the real mistress of Yucheng returns, she'll naturally come to see you. What's the rush?"

Fang was often ill and didn't understand. He had one good point: if he didn't understand something, he would ask; he wouldn't pretend to know what he didn't.

"The real master? What do you mean? Didn't the master just see Yu Mulan, the one who imprisoned us?"

"No." Li Lianhua did not answer, but called out "No."

Buwei had already let go of Li Lianhua's sleeve and ran to Hua Xiaozhou's side to find Liu Ruiying to recognize him.

"Father, I'm here."

I didn't jog over.

“Tell him why Yu Mulan can’t make the decision.”

Fang Duobing lowered his head and looked at Li Lianhua again.

What riddle are you asking?

“Brother, listen to me. My father has told me everything that happened after Miss Yu Er entered the house. When she entered, she asked me to speak to her elder sister, which means she is Madam Yu’s younger sister. The guards also talked about Madam Yu, and none of them mentioned the city lord. If she has no real power, then she is an outsider. She must have married into the family. That pretentious city lord must have changed his surname.”

In that case, how could an outsider make such a decision as the death of his own sister? We are being held here only to wait for Madam Yu to return and personally interrogate and decide our fate.

"Brother, there's no use in being anxious now. Just wait and see. You're a detective from Baichuan Academy, and Baichuan Academy holds a special position in the martial arts world. They won't dare to lay a hand on you unless absolutely necessary. Once Madam Yu returns, after questioning you and confirming you're innocent, she might just wave her hand and let you go."

The analysis was so logical and insightful that the listener nodded repeatedly in agreement.

“That makes sense!”

He looked at Buwei, who was half his height, and then at Li Lianhua. He unconsciously opened his mouth wide. Fang Duobing gasped. He simply couldn't believe that he didn't have the brains of a seven-year-old child.

Before she could finish speaking, she tilted her head back and looked at Li Lianhua, her little face full of anticipation.

Li Lianhua's smile was full of satisfaction and pride as he reached out and patted Buwei's head.

"Awesome."

Hua Xiaozhou was oblivious to the commotion here. Without further ado, she and Liu Ruiying continued their secret plotting, picking up where they left off.

"As a detective, you shouldn't always be so impatient. It's best to keep your emotions in check, listen more, ask more questions, and try not to say anything you don't want to do."

Fang Duobing was being lectured, and there were still people standing by, so he couldn't save face and quickly changed the subject.

"Chief Escort Cheng, didn't you notice anything amiss when you set off?"

Cheng Yunhe felt wronged. This shipment was carrying yellow jade. It departed from the Beishan Mine and was being packed right under the noses of everyone in the escort team. Who knew it would suddenly turn into a corpse?

"It's all because you smuggled the human head darts. Last night was the Ghost Festival, no wonder such strange things happened!" Zhang west complained.

"Hey, don't talk nonsense. I already said that they've performed a ritual. It's the same as stepping over a fire basin in your shop. How could there be a problem?" Cheng Yunhe insisted that it was the head's fault.

"What's the use? Regardless of whether it's the fault of the heads or not, Yu Cheng won't let us off the hook. It looks like they're going to make us pay with our lives!" Wang Dong stood up for his colleague.
