He Anchang felt his face was a little cold, he touched it and opened his eyes, and saw Xie Jingsheng's face close to him. He suddenly woke up and frowned, "What are you doing?"

Xie Jingsheng smiled and said, "Nothing, I just feel good." He Anchang raised his finger and saw that the ink was still wet. He looked up at Xie Jingsheng again, and Xie Jingsheng made an innocent gesture. He Anchang said calmly, "It's a pity to leave such good ink here."

Xie Jingsheng asked him to keep his usual cold expression, and sighed, "I also think it's a pity."

He Anchang felt that he had some meaning, but he was too lazy to think about it. He just took out a cotton handkerchief from his bosom, wiped it casually, and said: "These scrolls contain all the difficult problems that He Jingjing had dealt with. If you are not in a hurry, you might as well take a look."

Seeing that his eyes were already red, Xie Jingsheng thought that it was because he had not rested well in the past two days. In the past, Xie Jingsheng would definitely make some sarcastic remarks, but today he was completely uninterested, and even had the intention of closing the case quickly. Thinking of this, he reached out first. He took some of the scrolls to read. After reading only four or five, Xie Jingsheng suddenly pointed to a name on it and asked him: "Do you think this person is worth investigating?"

When He Anchang saw the name, he knew Xie Jingsheng came prepared, and he said, "He was eager to make a name for himself that night, and I have already guessed a few things."

"I just think this person has the greatest motive and advantage in committing the crime." Xie Jingsheng repeatedly traced under the word "Xin Wen/Shan" with his fingers, and said, "He is a relative of the clan, and is quite favored by the Emperor. He can go in and out of the palace, and he is inseparable from the clan house. All of the above are his advantages in committing the crime. Moreover, the Prince of Qin is in charge of the clan house, and he has lost a fifth ranked. As long as the Emperor does not insist on the innocence of this case, no matter who comes next, he will not be able to touch this little bully of Dalan."

"Yes." He Anchang said, "But where is the evidence?" Xie Jingsheng leaned over from the desk, and placed his hands on both sides of He Anchang's chair handles, trapping him. However, He Anchang was not moved at all, and did not even dodge. Xie Jingsheng looked at his beautiful and cold face carefully, but in his heart he thought of his drunken and flirtatious behavior that day, and said seriously: "There is a lot of evidence, I'm afraid he can't bear it."

"Then take it out first and see how much it weighs." He Anchang's eyes are lighter in color than those of ordinary people. Looking at them for a long time will give you a more refined sense of his beauty.

Xie Jingsheng's throat spun, and the evidence that was already at the tip of his tongue suddenly changed direction, and became, "Change it if you want to see it."

He Anchang was slightly startled and said "Hmm?" Xie Jingsheng felt as if his chest was being teased by him, and it was burning hot all over his body. He Anchang seemed to have noticed it and said coldly: "Master Xie, are you still investigating this case?"

Check! Of course this needs to be checked!

Xie Jingsheng took a deep breath, left his immediate vicinity, and retreated to the other side of the table before he calmed down. He pulled out a smile, but it seemed a bit cruel to He Anchang. Xie Jingsheng said, "I'll show you the evidence." He pulled open the scrolls he brought and said, "They are all He Jing's treasures. He hasn't passed the seventh day of his death yet. You have to hold on."
