Zhan Chen and Wei Luo were both shocked and asked, "Are you right?"

"Wei Luo, come and have a look!" Jiang Zhunsheng called. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Wei Luo hurriedly stepped forward, took a closer look with Jiang Zhunsheng, and exclaimed, "This, how is this possible?!"

Zhan Chen asked anxiously on the side: "Elder Jiang, Elder Wei, how is it?"

Jiang Zhunsheng and Wei Luo glanced at each other and confirmed: "This rudder is indeed a fake, the real thing is from us, we will naturally understand that this fake is just a layer of resemblance on the outside." ”

Jiang Zhunsheng even suffocated: "Alas, I am really useless, and I was deceived by this fake." ”

"Then it's really in—" As soon as Zhan Chen said this, he suddenly remembered Xu Xiao's panicked face again, and shouted: "That's right, Xu Xiao! Xu Xiao will definitely know the situation! Let's get off the boat quickly!"

Wei Luo was the first to react: "Yes, Xu Xiao must know the situation, because Xu Xiao was in the shipyard on the day of the fire!"

"Then without further ado, let's get off the boat quickly!" Jiang Zhunsheng also said.

So, the three of them got off the Tongtian Divine Boat, and after a while, the worshippers and guards on the ship also came down one after another, and everyone looked at Zhan Chen with puzzled faces, not knowing what was going on.

Zhan Chen didn't know how to explain to everyone, so he had to prevaricate first: "In comparison, everyone is worried, there are some problems with Tongtian Shenzhou and it needs to be debugged, so the launching ceremony of Shenzhou has been postponed." Let's get back to our jobs!"

Zhan Chen's vague words made everyone even more puzzling, but since the chief steward had spoken, they had no choice but to leave.

However, a wave of unevenness recurred, and suddenly a guard ran from a distance with a hurried look, shouting loudly as he ran: "Lord Steward, it's not good! Xu Xiao died in the interrogation room!"

"What did you say?" Zhan Chen was startled.

"Xu Xiao died in the interrogation room, go back and take a look!"

"Let's go!" Zhan Chen and the others did not dare to hesitate, and immediately rushed back to the interrogation room with the guards. When I got there, I saw Xu Xiao's eyes wide and his mouth foaming, so he fell next to the chair, still holding a short knife in his hand, and the rope tied to him was all broken.

"This is poisoning death!" Jiang Zhunsheng immediately judged.

Zhan Chen stared at the dagger in his hand and asked several guards behind him: "What's going on? How can Xu Xiao have a knife in his hand? Isn't his hand already tied to death?"

Several of the guards had blank expressions on their faces, and one of them replied, "We don't know, after you and Master Wei left, we followed your orders and immediately locked the interrogation room, waiting for you to come back for another trial." But the old Wang among us found that something was wrong, because there was no movement in the interrogation room for a long time, so he looked through the perspective window on the door, and saw Xu Xiao foaming at the mouth and lying on the ground, and several of us quickly opened the door, only to find that he was dead. ”

Zhan Chen hurriedly stepped forward, took off the Qiankun bag on Xu Xiao's waist and examined it carefully, hoping to find the disappeared real rudder, but unfortunately he searched every corner, but he couldn't find a trace.

After a long time, he withdrew his divine consciousness from the Qiankun bag and asked, "Didn't anyone come here halfway, or did you hear any movement?"

"No! The interrogation room is just-you and Deputy Director Wei have been here. The guard replied quietly.

Zhan Chen's brows furrowed deeply, and he fell into deep thought. Originally, he was still counting on getting the whereabouts of the rudder from Xu Xiao's mouth, but unfortunately it was such a coincidence, Xu Xiao died mysteriously at this time, and all the clues were broken for a while, what should he do next?

His heart was very confused, the loss of the rudder was definitely a big deal, and it would take at least a year to build another one, and when this spread to the Ning Mansion, there was another uproar.

"Wait, I have to calm down!" Zhan Chen suddenly realized that his own blind thoughts would not help him solve this case and recover the rudder.

Sure enough, when his mind calmed down, he thought about a lot of things, so he walked to Xu Xiao again, began to look carefully, and finally picked up the rope on the ground, stared at it, and found that the cut of the rope was extremely smooth.

Jiang Zhunsheng, who was standing on the side, couldn't hold his breath anymore, and asked Zhan Chen: "Manager Zhan, have you found anything?"

Zhan Chen came back to his senses, put down the rope, stood up, and said, "It's nothing, I didn't find anything." ”

At this time, Wei Luo, who had been pondering on the sidelines, said: "Chief Zhan, I have been reasoning about this matter just now. ”

"Oh, could it be that you already have the answer in your heart?" Zhan Chen asked.

"Not bad. ”

"Then tell me your reasoning. Now I'm at a loss. ”

"Well, I think Xu Xiao committed suicide in fear of sin! It all started from the day the robbers invaded my dock. That night, the bandits who broke in from the outside ransacked the material depot and then drove straight into our shipyard, and Jiang Jungang and I were both drunk and unconscious. ”

"In the shipyard, Xu Xiao led the crowd to defend against the intruding enemy. In the end, the bandits found a secret room with a rudder in the shipyard, where there were many guards guarding, but it was just to cover up, the robbers killed all the guards and destroyed the secret room, broke into it, and stole the rudder. ”

"Wait!Are you saying that the secret room has ever been vandalized?" Zhan Chen heard this crucial point and had to interrupt his reasoning.

"Yes, at that time the entire corner of the shipyard had collapsed, and the secret room where the rudder was stored was in ruins, and the scene was in chaos. It took a whole week for us to clean up the rubble, but we found that there was no trace of the rudder, and Jiang Zhunxian and I were in a hurry!"

"Yes, we were all at a loss when we found out that the rudder was missing!" Jiang Juncheng also confirmed.

Wei Luo continued: "But at this moment, Xu Xiao came to us, claiming that he had hidden the rudder as soon as the bandits invaded the shipyard, and took the rudder out of the Qiankun bag and showed it to us. Jiang Zhun-rope and I were overjoyed when we saw him take out the rudder, and we didn't take a closer look, who would have thought that he would fool us with a fake?"

"Since the rudder has not been lost, this turmoil has passed. Now that I think about it, the rudder of the ship must have been taken away by that gang of thieves, and Xu Xiao must be afraid that if he is held accountable afterwards, he will put the blame on his head. ”

"Just imagine what would happen if Master Ning knew about such a big loss of the rudder? So Xu Xiao was scared, so he came up with this 'tanuki for the prince' strategy, and remade a fake rudder to replace the real rudder, and passed the test first. ”

However, as the completion of the Tongtian Shenzhou and the inaugural test were approaching, he could not sleep well. Because he knew that the fake rudder would be exposed at the first try, and the paper would not be able to contain the fire after all, so he chose to implement the escape plan at this stall, but he never thought that you would be aware of it. ”

This series of analyses of Weiluo is full of truth, which makes people have to be convinced.

Jiang Zhuncheng praised: "Old friend, I didn't expect you to have such the ability to analyze and solve cases, after saying this, many problems that I didn't understand before have now been solved." I really admire it!"

Zhan Chen couldn't raise any questions, because Wei Luo's analysis was too reasonable, and he was a latecomer after all, and there were many situations that he hadn't seen or experienced at that time. To this day, his understanding of the whole incident comes from the mouths of others.

However, as for Xu Xiao's suicide, he always felt that Xu Xiao's death was a little unnatural, and what was this unnaturalness?

At this time, Zhan Chen's heart was like a mess, and he couldn't figure it out. On this day alone, there were so many things that happened, and he needed to go back and sort out his thoughts in order to figure out the ins and outs of the whole thing.

"Alas, the rudder has been lost, what should we do? How should we explain it to Master Ning?" Jiang Zhuncheng frowned.

"What can we do now? We can only report it to the old man as it is, and the fault is not ours anyway, the big deal is that it will take us another year to rebuild the rudder. Wei Luo spread his hands and replied.

"It seems that this is the only way to go. The two of them sighed at the thought of another year of hard work.

At this moment, Zhan Chen spoke: "We don't have to report the outcome of this matter to Master Ning so quickly. Because there are still many doubts in this matter to be verified, and when everything is clarified, it is not too late for us to report it to the master. ”

Jiang Zhunsheng and Wei Luo glanced at each other and said, "What the war manager said is, just do what you want." ”

After leaving the interrogation room, Zhan Chen went back to his room, lying on a comfortable bench, he couldn't help but close his eyes slightly, feeling a trace of fatigue coming up, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: "In the past month, I have been staring at Xu Xiao, hoping to find out something from him, but unfortunately in the end, I got a chicken and a flying egg, and I didn't get anything." That's it, that's it, I'd better close my eyes and recuperate, maybe I can come up with something. ”

Thinking like this, he fell asleep......

Just as Zhan Chen fell asleep, in a corner of the dock, a figure flashed, and while the sentry patrolling above was not paying attention, he threw a bamboo tube out of the city wall.

The bamboo tube crossed an arc in the night sky, and landed in a bush outside the fortress wall, and in the bushes not far away, a figure dressed in a black night suit immediately flashed, and quickly picked up the bamboo tube, and disappeared into the night.

This happened in a matter of seconds, and by the time the sentry turned to look at it again, there was no trace of it......

In the early morning of the second day, Zhan Chen, who was leaning on the bench in the room, opened his eyes again, and a wise light shot out of his eyes.

Yes, the moment he woke up, he connected everything together, and now he has the answer in his heart, just waiting for the time when the mystery will be revealed!
