Ye Yibai asked someone for hot water and brought it to her to wash it off. He saw her take out a transparent bottle filled with water from the space and spray some on his hands.
He raised his hand to his nose and smelled it: "What does it smell like? It's weird."
"Disinfectant water is more effective than the fragrant powder you brought." Hua Yanxi said, glancing at a box next to the basin.
"When will your instrument produce results?" Ye Yibai said.
"Two or three hours, maybe. But even if the results come out, we can't present them openly. We can only use them as a reference to confirm some of my guesses." Hua Yanxi said.
The results from the instrument are just a set of data. Even if you explain it to them, you can't explain it. You have to start from other places.
"Then let's go to that house and have a look. I happen to know that there's a delicious tofu pudding on that road."
"Just finished lunch, let's go."
On the other side, Zhang Heng and Li Zhuo came out of the house and planned to go back to Jingzhao Mansion. As soon as they left the alley and turned onto the street, they saw Ye Yibai and his wife.
The two of them were sitting in a simple shed, each holding a bowl of tofu curd, chatting while eating, looking very leisurely.
They don't look like they're here to investigate a case, they're just here for an outing.
Li Zhuo's face darkened, and he walked past the shed without squinting.
Zhang Heng followed behind, feeling helpless. His companion had always hated evil, and what he hated most was this kind of opportunistic and backdoor approach. Moreover, it seemed that these two people had no acumen in investigating crimes at all, and they were purely using them to gain merit.
Li Zhuo naturally would not pay attention to these worldly things, but he could not turn a blind eye.
"Brother Ye, Brother Hua, what a coincidence, you are having a meal, then we..."
"Now that we have met, let's go together. This Douhua restaurant is good."
Before Zhang Heng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Hua Yanxi.
"No need, Brother Li and I never like these things, so..."
"I stopped by to share the progress of the case."
Before Zhang Heng could speak, Li Zhuo sneered: "Communicate? I'd like to see what you can share with us."
After saying that, he sat down directly and showed his appearance of looking for trouble.
Zhang Heng had no choice but to sit down.
In order to consolidate its customer base, this bean curd shop also sells some other snacks in addition to bean curd.
Soon, the three fresh wontons, brown sugar glutinous rice cakes, plum pie, vegetarian noodles that Hua Yanxi ordered were brought to the table, along with the newly ordered tofu pudding.
Hua Yanxi said hello and moved her chopsticks.
Zhang Heng took out two pairs of chopsticks from the chopstick bucket and handed one pair to Li Zhuo.
Li Zhuo didn't even look at it, he crossed his arms and stared at Hua Yanxi coldly: "Didn't we talk about exchanging the facts of the case? Then let's talk about what you discovered first."
Ye Yibai said coldly: "I didn't see anyone eating, so I don't understand any rules."
When Li Zhuo heard this, the anger he had endured all morning poured down from his head. He stood up from the bench and stared at Ye Yibai.
"Rules? I don't know your rules. I took the position of Shaoyin without going through review. Now I'm trying to get information from us. Whose power are you relying on, and who is supporting you?"
waist!"
"Brother Li, don't be excited, don't be excited. Brother Ye is right. We have been busy all morning. It doesn't matter if we have something to eat and talk about business. Brother Ye, Brother Hua, don't mind. He is eager to handle the case. That's okay.
I mean." Zhang Heng hurriedly smoothed things over, holding Li Zhuo's arm to persuade him to sit down.
Li Zhuo had already made up his mind to fall out with these two people. If these two people dared to reveal the people behind them, even if he risked his future, he would definitely go to the imperial court and expose the evil deeds of these officials and gentry.
