Opening Six Maids

Chapter 167: Goodbye the opera artist

After listening to the actor's explanation, Chu Ci asked aloud, "Where is that mouse?"

The operative pointed to an inverted basket in the courtyard and said, "We have put the mouse under the basket."

The basket fell to the ground, and a stone was pressed on it.

Chuci looked through the gap in the basket and saw a big mouse lying inside.

After pondering for a moment, Chu Ci asked aloud, "Where did the mouse bite?"

The operative went to Qian Guangyuan's body and lifted the white cloth covering the body.

"Lord, please see!"

The operative pointed to Qian Guangyuan's foot and said, "The mouse swallowed one of the toes of Qian Guangyuan's corpse."

Chuci looked at it and saw that Qian Guangyuan's corpse was missing a thumb on the left foot, and there were obvious marks of teeth and bites on the fracture.

Chu Ci pondered for a moment, and then said, "Converge these corpses in the Qian Mansion, take care of them closely, and forbid anything to come near!"

A group of operatives hurriedly took their orders, "Yes, Lord Chan!"

"Also." Chu Ci pointed at the mouse under the basket and said, "Bring it on and follow me!"

After speaking, Chu Ci left Qian Mansion directly.

An operative found a cage to put the rat in, and hurriedly followed.

After leaving the Qian Mansion, Chuci took a circle along Taikang Street, and finally came to an unmanned mansion.

Chu Ci pointed to the empty courtyard and said, "Put the cat and mouse here."

A cat and a mouse were all locked in a cage and placed on the open space in the courtyard.

Strangely speaking, the cat and the mouse all lay down in the cage quietly with their eyes closed, without the slightest intention of fleeing from anxiousness.

Qin Xiaohai walked up to Chuci and asked respectfully, "Sir, what shall we do next?"

Chu Ci looked at the sky and said, "Wait!"

"Tell the brothers to stay around the courtyard, take out the sword and wind the crossbow!"

Qin Xiaohai was a little unsure, but the wise one did not ask, but took the command with a respectful voice, "Yes, Lord Chan!"

Jin Changjiang looked at the deserted courtyard, frowning and said, "This courtyard looks uninhabited for a long time. What are we doing guarding this courtyard?"

"Could it be that the murderer will come here or not?"

Chu Ci glanced at Jin Changjiang, then sneered, "You were smarter."

"The bait has been sprinkled, just waiting for the big fish to get the bait!"

Jin Changjiang heard the satirical meaning in Chuci's tone, and the legal lines on his face shook slightly.

"good!"

"I want to see what you can catch!"

Under the order of Chuci, the members of the Deception Division of the brigade mobilized and lurked around the courtyard secretly, the sword was unsheathed, and the bow and crossbow were wound.

Chuci and Jin Changjiang picked a small room and walked in.

"Come on!"

Chuci invited an operative and ordered, "Go to a nearby restaurant and order a table of wine and food!"

The operative was taken aback and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, my lord!"

The operative turned around and left the hut to prepare food and drink for Chuci.

"sit down!"

Chuci greeted Jin Changjiang to sit down and said with a smile, "It's still early, let's eat something."

A table of wine and food was quickly prepared, and Chu Ci and Jin Changjiang sat opposite each other.

Jin Changjiang was silent for a moment, and poured a glass of wine for Chuci and himself.

"Chu's matter."

Jin Changjiang looked at Chuci and asked in a puzzled voice, "Will the murderer of the Qianfu case really come like this?"

Chu Ci picked up the wine glass and said with a chuckle, "Look at luck."

"Luck?" Jin Changjiang was taken aback when he heard the words, "Is it a little sloppy?"

Chu Ci glanced at Jin Changjiang and said, "Other than that, do you have any other way?"

Jin Changjiang was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I hope Chu Yanshi's luck will be good enough!"

"Ha ha···"

Chu Ci smiled, holding the wine glass and said, "Drink."

Satiated with wine and food, there is still no change in the courtyard.

Chu Ci opened a gap in the window of the hut and observed the situation in the courtyard through the gap.

Jin Changjiang sat in the seat without saying a word, with his right hand resting on the hilt of the knife at his waist, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

In the courtyard, there was silence.

Time passed, and the last afterglow disappeared at the end of the horizon.

The hazy moonlight scattered in the courtyard, and the reflected courtyard became colder and colder.

In the courtyard, a cat and a mouse were locked in a cage.

Squeak--

Meow--

The cat and mouse that had been quiet suddenly became manic, and kept hitting the cage, trying to escape from here.

In the hut, Chu Ci narrowed his eyes and whispered, "Come!"

Click!

With a move of Jin Changjiang's wrist, the long knife was half an inch out of its sheath.

Through the gap of the window, Chu Ci can clearly see the situation in the courtyard.

The cat and the mouse in the cage became more and more irritable, hitting the cage desperately to escape here.

Ooh!

The whimper of the evening breeze sounded and rolled up a few fallen leaves in the courtyard.

In the cold night sky, a cloud of clouds gathered at some point, floating directly above the courtyard.

Huh!

A thumb-thin rope descended slowly from the dark clouds.

In the cabin, Jin Changjiang suddenly grasped the handle of the knife and watched this scene with wide eyes.

A different color flashed in Chu Ci's eyes, and he murmured, "The opera artist, it's really you!"

In the courtyard, the rope hanging from the clouds has fallen to the ground.

In the next second, a figure broke out of the cloud, and rolled down the rope.

Snapped!

The figure's feet stepped on the ground, and the hazy moonlight shone on the figure's body.

A colorful robe, pale oil paint all over his face.

It is the artist who has performed tricks on West Street!

The painter's eyes swept across the courtyard, and finally landed on a cat and a mouse in the cage.

"Ha ha···"

The painter chuckled lightly, and stretched out his hand to make a move at the cage.

A green flame suddenly emerged from a cat and a mouse.

call!

The flame grows well with the wind, and it ignites into a ball in the blink of an eye!

The colorist raised his hand, and the green flame separated from a cat and a mouse, slowly drifting into the palm of the colorist.

The cat and the mouse in the cage instantly lost their lives.

The hair is dry and the flesh is browned, just like a barbecue in an oven!
