Chapter 70: Yang City Demon Fox Case (1)

"Go to Yang City to investigate the case?" Qiao Songyu asked in surprise, remembering what his elder brother said about the account books before, and asked, "Go to investigate the Xie family's account books?"

Pei Rongbai shook his head: "This matter is so secret, how could I be sent to investigate it openly?"

"What case are you going to investigate?"

"A very sensational event happened in Yangcheng, even people in Jingdu are talking about it, but Song'er hasn't heard of it yet?" Pei Rongbai asked with raised eyebrows.

Qiao Songyu shook his head honestly, because someone wanted to fight against the Qiao family, it would be dangerous for him to go out, and he would often be watched by the people when he went out, so he just stayed at home obediently.

Pei Rongbai got up from the chair, stood in front of Qiao Songyu and explained to him: "It's like this, there is a very famous 'Fox Murder Case' in Yang City. In the past month, three people have been killed.The dead were the watchman at the watchman, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy, and the other was an old yamen servant in the Yang City Yamen. All three of them were strangled to death, and the strangled objects seemed to be the tail of a demon fox, because the watchmanHe and the old yamen servants had fox fur around their necks, and there were fox scratches on their bodies. Some witnesses said that when the watchman died, he saw a white fox standing next to him and heard the fox's sharp screams.'Squeak' sound."

After hearing this, Qiao Songyu couldn't help but feel curious and excited but also creepy: "There are such things? So are there really fox demons in this world?"

Pei Rongbai was noncommittal, and said: "If you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, but I think that many ghosts are causing trouble, but it's just people using ghosts to do evil."

"Huh? How to say?" Qiao Songyu was very interested in this case.

"You think, if the demon fox really kills people, then why did it kill people in the first place? What is the motive for killing people? Look at these people, they are neither hunters for hunting, nor businessmen selling fox fur, nor are they some so-called foxes who absorb spirits.The object of anger, you know, these three people are already very old, the fox has no grievances with them, why is it them? Secondly, if there is a fox demon, why did it appear now, and I didn’t even hear about it before?Have you ever said that?" Pei Rongbai analyzed one by one, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Qiao Songyu, seeing that Qiao Songyu was stunned, he couldn't help laughing, "What does Song'er think?"

"It's very simple. Maybe this demon fox has cultivated into a spirit and hides in the crowd on weekdays. Foxes are not human after all, and they will kill people when they go crazy..." Qiao Songyu said, looking at Pei Rongbai,"Look, what I said makes sense."

Pei Rongbai's smile became brighter and brighter: "Okay, even if Song'er is right, then this harmful 'demon fox', we must find it out and lock it up, right?"

"Hmm..." Qiao Songyu nodded, then thought of something and said, "So His Majesty sent you to Yang City to investigate this case?"

"Yeah." Pei Rongbai said, and then smiled mysteriously, "And he sent another person to accompany me, Song Er, guess who it is?"

"How could I guess this?" Qiao Songyu was speechless, "I don't know your colleagues."

"You must know this colleague." Pei Rongbai smiled brightly, his black eyes sparkling, "He is the new supervisory censor..."

"Ah!" Qiao Songyu jumped up from the chair in surprise, her beautiful face sparkled, "It's my second brother! Isn't it?!"

"Guess right!" Pei Rongbai said, smiling fondly and scratching the tip of Qiao Songyu's nose."This time Zeyu is walking with me as the supervisory censor, which is also an opportunity for him to perform and make meritorious deeds."

"Then I'm going too!" Qiao Songyu said immediately, very excited, looking at Pei Rongbai expectantly, "This case sounds very exciting, let me go together, okay?"

Pei Rongbai put on a very embarrassed look on purpose, and said: "But we are going to investigate the case, there may be dangers, and there is no reason for the family members to follow us to investigate the case..."

"Hmph." Qiao Songyu was a little unhappy, pouted her mouth, and turned her face, indicating that she was about to lose her temper again.

Pei Rongbai knelt down and looked at Qiao Songyu with squinted eyes: "Why don't you give me a kiss from Song'er, and I'll go and tell His Majesty to let Song'er go with me."

Only then did Qiao Songyu understand what his plan was, blushed, and glared at him in embarrassment: "You are shameless!"

"What do I call shameless?" The corners of Pei Rongbai's lips curled up, his handsome face was extremely charming, "If I were shameless, would you still scold me with your small mouth?"

"!!!" Qiao Songyu's whole body turned pale, her face was flushed with shame, her fair face seemed to be dyed with a layer of rouge, even her eyes changed from embarrassment to shyness and timidity, her beautiful eyes were watery., rendering his expression somewhat charming and pitiful, the long eyelashes fluttered like feathers across Pei Rongbai's heart, making his heart itch.

He slowly got up, leaned closer, and gradually approached Qiao Songyu. When the two of them could already breathe each other's breath, he stopped, turned his head slightly, and said, "Song'er is so beautiful.Proper, I can't think of any tricks, I just want to kiss you directly... Would Song'er be willing?"

Qiao Songyu smelled the atmosphere belonging to Pei Rongbai around her, looked at Pei Rongbai's deep and dark eyes, blinked twice, then closed her eyes, and raised her face slightly.

Pei Rongbai leaned over and kissed his delicate and bright red mouth. He leaned on the table with one hand, and lightly pressed the back of Qiao Songyu's head with the other, tentatively licking and kissing Qiao Songyu's. Just as he was about to go deeper, he heard Pei Rongxuan laughing outside.the sound of:

"Butler Pei, don't be so serious! I'm just joking with you... What about my elder brother and sister-in-law? It should be..."

Qiao Songyu seemed to wake up suddenly, pushed Pei Rongbai away, lowered her head and covered her mouth in panic.

Pei Rongbai was pushed away, and when he heard that the person disturbing them was Pei Rongxuan again, he couldn't help turning dark, straightened up, turned around and walked over, and sure enough, he saw Pei Rongxuan walking over with a smile, he saw Pei Rongxuan standing at the door with a blue face and hands behind his back.Straightforward, couldn't help but joked:

"Tsk, big brother, what kind of doorkeeper are you playing at the door at noon? Sister-in-law... oh my mother!"

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw that Pei Rongbai was going to cover his face with a blow. Fortunately, he was well-trained and dodged quickly, and dodged sideways, but Pei Rongbai didn't let him go, and came directly to him with another blow. Pei Rongxuan received the moveWhile retreating to the outside of the yard, he yelled:

"Brother, what are you doing... why did you hit me!"

"It was you who hit!"

"Why!" Pei Rongxuan was about to cry, his elder brother's kung fu was so unfathomable that he didn't show it so easily, he could only take a few tricks, and if he went on, he would be beaten!

"Seeing that you are unhappy, is this reason enough?" Pei Rongbai said ruthlessly.

Pei Rongxuan was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly realized that he might have disturbed the good affairs of his brother and sister-in-law, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Oh, don't, don't, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong..."

As he said that, he sold an opening, then turned around and started running.

"Hehe, now I know I was wrong? It's too late!"

"Ahhh, help! The prime minister murdered his own brother!!!"

It was also the first time for Qiao Songyu to see Pei Rongbai fighting with others, and hurriedly ran to the door to watch the fight, and saw the two brothers running around the yard one after the other.

On the side, Jiang Shang watched cheerfully, even wishing to use a small bench to eat melon seeds, and said while watching: "Lord Prime Minister has made a lot of progress in martial arts, this time is enough for Master Tang, hahaha."

Qiao Songyu: ...

Suddenly found that Pei Rongbai is quite cute.
