    While he was thinking about it, the two of them had already arrived at the gate of the government office, and the guard at the gate obviously had orders, and when they saw it was Su Mu, they let them in directly.

    Su Mu pondered for a while, then took a small stone and turned a few corners to the main hall. Although it was his first time to come here, the layout of the government office should still be unable to escape the basic outline.

    As he expected, there were indeed many people standing inside and outside the main hall, he stood far away from the crowd and took a look inside, and met Liu Xiaoran's gaze.

    Suddenly, Su Mu thought of the conversation between the two of them yesterday. Although thinking about it now, he could understand that Liu Xiaoran's words might not have the meaning he thought, but he still felt a little embarrassed, so he wanted to hide it.He looked away, thinking that the instant meeting just now was just an illusion.

    Liu Xiaoran was slightly taken aback, then frowned slightly.

    Perhaps it was because Su Mu had never treated others with such an attitude, but now he suddenly felt that there was a natural barrier between him and the other party. Even Liu Shaoqing, who had never cared about his position in others' hearts, had a few emotions for the first time.Point lost.

    Su Mu withdrew his gaze, and after sorting out his thoughts, he could roughly understand the situation in the room. He was standing in the middle of the room, one person was sitting and the other was sitting. The person standing was naturally Gao Huan, the backbone of everyone.Sitting there was Governor Li who had died the night before but now came back to life with a disheveled face and a paralyzed position.

    Xiao Shitou stood behind the crowd and couldn't see. He greeted Su Mu and slipped in carefully.

    Most of the people in the room didn't notice Su Mu's arrival, and Gao Huan looked at Li He with a look of bitterness and hatred. He wanted to ask a few times, but he was a little helpless, so he waved his hand and handed it over.It was given to the other officials of Wang Jiang government office who seemed much more eager than him.

    Suddenly it became lively inside, and a group of people began to greet their miraculously revived boss in a hurry.

    The officials headed by the principal Yang Ping were the first to ask: "You...are you Master Li?"

    The person who was paralyzed in the position seemed to be extremely weak, and nodded his head very slightly.

    Gao Huan felt that this matter was really strange. Yesterday, the young master of the Su family just said that they might be twin brothers. It was still daylight here, so news came that they were twin brothers.Li He came back from the dead, and he was so frightened that he dozed off and woke up.

    And when he rushed over in a hurry, he heard the man who seemed to have only half his life left talking about being framed by someone. When he took a closer look, it was really the same as the corpse yesterday.Son, lift the corpse up to have a look, and get rid of the small rash that appeared on the corpse. These two people were carved out of the same mold.

    Although anyone with a discerning eye can guess the whole story, Gao Huan, adhering to the principle of fairness and justice, quickly summoned the Wang Jiang officials to identify whether this is the real Li He or not.Lee Inspector.

    Without waiting for everyone to ask about his experience, this fresh Inspector Li explained himself: "Ahem... I am the Inspector Wang Jiang personally appointed by His Majesty. I didn't expect... Li worked hard for the first half of his life.I made a slight mistake and devoted myself to serving the people, but I ended up in this kind of situation.”

    As soon as he opened his mouth, Gao Huan felt that the taste seemed to be quite authentic. That's how Li He, who was able to use a set of old and complicated rhetoric to make himself a headache when he was in Capital City, spoke like this.

    Li He seemed to feel that his fate was unfair, and even his pale face turned red when he mentioned his brother: "How can that man be called my younger brother, he is just...-"

    He gasped and gasped for a long time on the spot, before puffing his beard and cursing, "He's just a heinous beast."

    "I was separated from him when I was young, and I never thought that we would meet again one day. Because he came all the way to join me, I was still very happy in those few days. I thought it must be God's mercy, let us brothersAfter all, it was time to meet again, but I didn't expect that all of this would be nothing more than Li Daitao's stupid conspiracy in the end."

    "He took every step of the way. After I didn't have the scented incense to stun me, he hid in the secret room. Although he would bring in food every few days, he kept me from going out all day long, used my name, andHe did a lot of outrageous things!" He coughed when he was in a hurry, and he continued after a long time, "Fortunately, God has eyes, when he came to the secret room for the last time two days ago, he seemed restless.I didn't even close the checkpoint of this secret room, that's... that's why I was able to see the light of day again."

    Speaking of this, Li He burst into tears. Although he has not yet reached the frail and octogenarian age, he has already grown hair, and now anyone who sees his disheveled hair will feel a little more compassion.

    Su Mu was also a little moved by it, but he still had doubts about many details in his words. If the truth is so simple, why didn't the fake Li He kill his brother and abandon the body in the secret room early in the morning, but kept it for himself?Such a big hidden danger?This point can still be explained as the brother still has a ray of family affection, so Li He is unwilling to be the killer, so why did he escape the life left the day before yesterday?Is he really the assassin Li He as he said?

    He was far away, so he didn't ask his doubts. He just stood aside and watched silently. But soon, someone asked what he wanted.

    Liu Xiaoran looked indifferent, and asked: "Master Li, do you have other methods to prove your identity? Just relying on one-sided words, it is still impossible to make people believe that you are Li Inspector."

    Li He was slightly taken aback, but then he came back to his senses, his face sank, and he said: "When I was in Capital City, your father and I were old friends. You were only eight years old when I left Capital City, and your fatherMy father also died of illness two years later, am I not mistaken?"

    Although the original intention of these words was to prove himself, Su Mu's heart trembled when he heard it, and he looked in Liu Xiaoran's direction. Seeing that the latter's expression did not change significantly, he breathed a sigh of relief.

    Picking out other people's sad things and saying, if this Mr. Li didn't do it on purpose, he really has a low EQ over there.

    Gao Huan also frowned, feeling a little displeased with Li He's behavior of not mentioning which pot to open, and when he was about to speak, Li He suddenly turned to him again and said, "Gao Linjian, you are newWhen I was in the army, I was fined to contemplate behind closed doors for reckless behavior, am I right?"

    Even this trivial matter of Chen Guzi's rotten sesame seeds was turned out. Gao Huan waved his hand impatiently, indicating that he knew. He didn't like Li He's literati's bad temper.There is no need to be afraid of him, the high position immediately turned around and ordered this person to be taken down first to have a good rest.

    If Li He stayed for another second, he would feel that he was going to be so angry that he couldn't control his beating hands.

    The crowd in the house immediately dispersed in a big circle, and Su Mu was going to look around for a while, but Gao Huan recognized Su Mu who was observing others at a glance, and immediately shouted: "Little Su Marquis, look!what."

    "General Gao." Just as Su Mu raised his hand to make a bow, Gao Huan waved his hand.

    "Come on, I don't need to do this with me. You have a title. If you salute, I have to pay it back again. It's very troublesome. Let's avoid it. You and I can relax."

    Su Mu was taken aback for a moment, and after a lot of entanglement, he still put down his hand and responded kindly.

    Now he salutes completely by intuition, because he is really not sure who should salute whom in this dynasty, so when he sees someone who is older than himself, he takes the trouble to do this superficially first to prevent future troubles.

    Now that Gao Huan was able to open up so reasonably, it also made him feel a lot more relieved, after all, he really didn't know the rank of the general in front of him.

    "Li—cough, Inspector Li pointed out the location of the secret room, do you want to go and see it with us?"

    Su Mu subconsciously wanted to agree, but as soon as the corner of his eye fell on Liu Xiaoran, he began to hesitate again, and after considering for a long time, he lowered his eyes and replied: "Your ability is limited, maybe I can't help you much."

    Before Su Mu finished speaking, the little stone jumped out from the corner: "I want to go too, I want to go and have a look too! Maybe my master is also in there!"

    Gao Huan was even more taken aback by Su Mu's words, thinking that his nephew had only praised him for a long time the day before that Su Mu was a careful and quick-thinking person. It can be seen from the fact that he was able to see the strangeness in some small details last night.Why are you being humble with yourself now?

    He glanced at Liu Xiaoran who was standing on the other side, and found that the other party seemed to be in a trance, and suddenly felt strange. If you want to talk about the relationship between these two people, you would be willing to risk your life to save them. It must be the first one., now one shirks one and does not hold one back. Could it be that the words he said to himself the night before were conjectured by himself?

    Gao Huan looked left and right, and finally felt that there seemed to be something wrong with these two people, so he simply used his status as an elder to make a decision for them: "Today I will continue to check the previous files here, and go to question Li He, the secret room should not be bothered to take care of it. Yan Xuan, since you said that the brat Chen Chu disappeared here, maybe it has something to do with it, you two should call a few people to investigate together. Hey, you can nowIs it? If I feel unwell, I'll find someone else to go in and have a look."

    Liu Xiaoran shook her head, and when she was about to speak, Gao Huan walked out preemptively: "Then, take it easy, I'll go first."

    As soon as he left, the atmosphere instantly cooled down. Even Xiao Shitou noticed that these two people seemed to be a little different from before, so he closed his mouth and said nothing.

    Su Mu felt that those were his own knots, and he shouldn't be angry with Liu Xiaoran, but now he was a little speechless with the other party, so he could only reach out and rub the tip of his nose in embarrassment.

    After a long time, Liu Xiaoran finally said: "I will take someone to see it, you...don't force yourself."

    Su Mu was dazed for a moment, and Liu Xiaoran had already walked out of the door. Looking at Liu Xiaoran's back, he felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, did he really want to drift away from the people who walked along the way?Stop here and return to Capital City?

    As Liu Xiaoran said, he had already fulfilled what he promised Ye Rong, and he should be able to leave with peace of mind. The push behind it was just an extra risk for him.

    He couldn't figure it out.

    At this time, Xiaoshi suddenly pulled Su Mu's clothes pitifully and said, "Let's go and have a look, we won't lose a piece of meat, and—and you don't want to know what's in that secret room."Is there a clue, what if the big bad guy left something there before he died?"

    Su Mu reached out and touched Xiao Shishi's head, and finally sighed deeply.

    The secret room is not small, and the entrance is inside the study room, but after opening it, one can find that under the mansion, there is a whole intricate labyrinth, with twists and turns, and it is impossible to see the end clearly.

    Gao Huan sent many people to follow, and Su Mu asked Mo Shu to stay outside.

    In the past few days, he had a faint feeling that Mo Shu seemed to be hiding a lot, but he couldn't find anything when he asked, so he could only ask after everything here was over.

    Liu Xiaoran subconsciously wanted to reach out to catch the fire, when a very familiar voice suddenly sounded beside her.

    Su Mu blew on the torch in his hand from the side, and under the light of the fire, his eyes flickered slightly: "Your shoulder injury is not healed, let me take it."
