Chapter 437 Something Fishy Is Going On
Lin Chen naturally didn't have much good feelings towards Jia Baoyu.
Mainly because his actions in the original book were too despicable.
As the saying goes, why flirt if you don't marry?
His slogans were so loud that he said he didn't want to be with officials, thieves and insects.
But he didn't think about where the rich and leisurely life he enjoyed came from.
He made a lifelong promise to Lin Daiyu, but backed off at the critical moment, which led to the famous scene of Daiyu burying flowers.
So, looking at the original book.
Lin Chen didn't have much good feelings towards him at all.
It's just that he didn't expect that the characters in the book Dream of Red Mansions would be mixed into this world of comprehensive martial arts.
When thinking of the advice of the reincarnated immortals that he had seen in the blessed land of Xiaoyao Sect, Lin Chen looked at Jia Baoyu with a little more playfulness.
This is a great medicine that can break through the purple mansion in the Li Tang world.
Jia Baoyu seemed to sense something cold, and while shivering, he subconsciously looked in the direction of Lin Chen.
It would be better if you didn't look.
When Jia Baoyu saw the classic bronze ghost mask of Lin Chen's disguise, his eyes lit up and he immediately shouted, "Uncle Lin, please save me!"
Jia Baoyu had a lot of disdain for Lin Chenjia, but he didn't show it.
After all, Jia Zheng and Lin Chen were good friends, and Jia Baoyu, as a son, would not show what he thought unless he felt that he was beaten too little.
Now that he saw Lin Chen, Jia Baoyu waved his hands vigorously as if he saw a savior.
But when Lin Chen heard Jia Baoyu calling him, his forehead was full of black lines.
"Uncle?"
Those who didn't know would think he was in his forties or fifties, but who made Jia Zheng claim to be on equal terms with Lin Chen.
It didn't matter if Jia Baoyu called Lin Chen uncle.
At this time, Zhuge Shenhou looked at Lin Chen and Jia Baoyu, who had not yet expressed their opinions, and became interested.
The next second, Lin Chen gave him a look.
The meaning of his eyes was: Didn't they say Jia Baoyu had little to do with the case?
Zhuge Shenhou smiled without saying anything, and pointed his finger upwards slightly.
It was indeed irrelevant, but who could blame the Duke of Liu?
The Liu family, which had lost its direct descendants, had already caused a stir in the city, and even the emperor in the palace had heard about it.
As a good compromiser, Zhuge Shenhou naturally ordered his subordinates to be ruthless and "invite" Jia Baoyu from the Jia Mansion to the Six Gates to cooperate with the investigation.
I think the Six Gates would not torture Jia Baoyu for interrogation, and at most they would ask about the situation that night as a routine matter.
After Lin Chen thought it through, he nodded.
But he still had to deal with Jia Baoyu, so he stepped forward and patted the latter on the shoulder, saying in a comforting tone: "It's okay, I have already greeted Lord Zhuge Shenhou, and I brought you to the Six Gates just to ask about what happened that night."
Jia Baoyu was overjoyed to hear Lin Chen say this, but he also subconsciously asked: "Uncle Lin, are you serious?"
Lin Chen smiled slightly, but did not respond directly.
Jia Baoyu also reacted to this and smiled embarrassedly.
Indeed, Lin Chenjia would not fool him for such a small matter.
"I think the Jia family is also trying to find a way to rescue you, you just stay in the Six Gates and don't cause trouble." Lin Chen said in a deep voice.
Jia Baoyu nodded like a chick pecking at rice. With Lin Chen as a guarantor, he didn't feel like he had just come here, with no desire to live.
As for Wuqing, one of the four famous detectives, he ignored Lin Chen who was talking to the prisoner from beginning to end, and just ordered the officers to take Jia Baoyu to the prison for interrogation.
Lin Chen was a little surprised to see Wuqing unwilling to look at him.
He claimed that he had not offended this famous detective, right?
He only dealt with Jia Zhen's castration, and this crime was also pinned on Tian Boguang, which had nothing to do with him.
However, what Lin Chen didn't know was.
Wuqing didn't want to deal with him, mainly because he accidentally overheard him and Wang Yuyan talking in broad daylight in the Jia Mansion, so he didn't like him.
Despite this, Lin Chen still maintained his proper demeanor.
After all, he still had to do enough face work on Jia Baoyu's side.
He turned to Wuqing and said in the tone of an elder: "Captain Wuqing, please take care of Jia Baoyu."
However, Wuqing, with a cold face, didn't even look at him.
Obviously, he has done something that will backfire. Wuqing might even pay more attention to "taking care" of Jia Baoyu.
If Lin Chen knew what Wuqing was thinking, he would only say one sentence.
Please step up your efforts!
Lin Chen, who left the Six Gates, was ready to go to the Dali Temple.
The first place to take over the case of the second son of Duke Liu was the Dali Temple, and more files with details of the case were also in its treasury.
He promised Lin Shiyin that he would get Li Xunhuan out as soon as possible.
Moreover.
Lin Chen intended to ask Di Pangpang about his opinion on the case.
As the saying goes: Huaiying, what do you think?
Speaking of Di Renjie.
In the past year, relying on his diligent work attitude, and with the exposure of the case of the murder of the Later Jin envoys, he was promoted two levels in the Dali Temple.
From Dali Temple Cheng to Dali Temple Zheng, and from Zheng Liu to Cong Wu.
This opportunity is really enviable.
Despite this, Fatty Di worked diligently every day, never came late or left early, and looked like an honest worker.
In addition, his outstanding work ability attracted the attention of the then Dali Temple Minister, who often mentioned to others: Xiao Di is a capable person, and everyone should learn more.
Of course, Fatty Di was not in a good mood in recent days.
The reason was that he was unable to get involved in a case, which was the recent murder of the second son of Duke Liu.
Although he had inquired about a lot of relevant information from his colleagues, it was like scratching an itch through a shoe, which made Di Pangpang, who liked to solve cases, feel anxious and had not rested for several days.
Just today, when Di Renjie heard that this case was in trouble, he was about to recommend himself.
He saw his immediate superior, the Dali Temple Minister, accompanying someone with a very respectful attitude.
Lin Chen turned his head and looked at Di Renjie, who had not seen him for a long time and had a fat body, and nodded with satisfaction.
That's right.
Di Pangpang should look like Di Pangpang.
Di Renjie was naturally familiar with Lin Chen.
Di Renjie also felt very strange about this important official in the court.
The reason was that this person seemed to have a good impression of him.
Otherwise, with his original identity as the Dali Temple Minister, he might not have had the opportunity to talk to him.
On the other hand, General Lin came to him in person, and the first sentence he said was Huaiying, what do you think.
This made Di Pangpang speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Today, it was the same plot again.
"What do you think of this case, Huaiying?"
In the warehouse, Lin Chen took the case file and asked Di Renjie before he looked at it carefully.
Di Renjie: "..."
After all, he hadn't seen the file yet!
"General Lin, I think there must be something strange about this case!" Di Renjie saluted and said in an official manner.
As Di Renjie said, this case is not only strange, but also very strange.
The coroner of the Dali Temple was not a warrior after all, and he missed a lot of key clues.
Di Renjie had Lin Chen to rely on, so he proposed to re-examine the body.
Sure enough.
Di Pangpang really found a lot of missed details.
