Chapter 208 The Prince's Constable
Chapter 208 The Prince's Constable
Xia Xiaoxian looked at the people who had not yet told their stories, and suddenly a very serious problem came to her mind.
Is there really only one “trickster” among the nine?
If there really was only one "deceiver", then everyone else was undoubtedly telling the truth.
But those people, who were clearly in places far away from each other, were connected by a "Lichun Tower".
They even miraculously encountered the situation where the plaque of Lichun Tower fell down. When you think about it carefully, it is really too strange.
Xia Xiaoxian allowed herself to wander in and out of the game at this moment, and after a while, she felt like she was about to break apart.
Heaven, earth, games...
Her identity and her memories were somewhat confusing. When she was trying to sort them out, Xia Chongwen, who was wearing a doctor's gown, spoke.
"I am Chong Wen, a doctor. I'm sure you can tell from the medicine box on my waist."
Xia Chongwen's voice sounded calmer and calmer than ever before.
"Before coming here, I was treating a patient. When I heard a loud noise, I hurried out of the clinic door to check. Unexpectedly, it was the huge plaque of Lichun Building opposite the clinic that collapsed. When I stepped out, my head was suddenly hit by a hard object and I lost consciousness immediately."
Xia Chongwen looked up at everyone present and continued, "Like everyone else, I came here after waking up."
After listening to Xia Chongwen's story, the others all looked surprised.
"Doctor, may I ask, where are you from?" Li Jiujiang asked curiously.
"I don't think this is something the mission requires me to answer." There was some disdain in Xia Chongwen's eyes.
Li Jiujiang moved his lips, but in the end no words came out.
"It should be my turn..." Xia Pingan's eyes flickered, and he said hesitantly: "My name is Pingan, I..."
"Wait a minute," Xia Chongde suddenly interrupted Xia Ping'an's narration.
"What...what happened?" Xia Ping'an looked frightened and turned to look at the man in the flying fish suit.
The man in the flying fish suit raised his head slightly, but did not stop Xia Chongde.
"I think there's no need for everyone to continue!" Xia Chongde said, looking at the others with a slightly smug look on his face, "I think the doctor is a sly person!"
Xia Chongwen's expression seemed to darken slightly when he heard this: "How can you be sure that I am a swindler?"
"You're not even willing to say where you're from. It's obvious that you're trying to cover up something."
"The mission didn't specify where I was from, so there was no need for me to add unnecessary details."
Xia Chongwen's voice remained calm, "Besides...I don't trust any of you!"
"You are actually wrong. Among the nine people present, only one is a fraud. If you are not the fraud, why do you have to hide it?"
Xia Xiaoxian looked at Xia Chongwen and Xia Chongde with great interest.
Outside the game, they are close relatives; inside the game, they are rivals!
However, in the game, it is clear that neither of them is a "trickster", but rather a companion who works together to catch the enemy.
Outside the game, Xia Chongwen's mother, Mrs. Lu, poisoned Xia Chongde's mother for her own selfish desires, and then praised Xia Chongde to death!
So, which relationship is real, inside or outside the game?
"I'm not a sly person, but you, can you tell us who you are? What were you doing before you came here?"
The real Xia Chongwen was certainly not an ordinary person. How could he be controlled by Xia Chongde with just a few words?
The timing of his counterattack was just right.
"Me?" Xia Chongde obviously didn't expect Xia Chongwen to suddenly bring the topic to him.
The expression on his face was a little awkward.
"That's right, you have been pursuing me relentlessly, so naturally I would like to ask who you are?" Xia Chongwen said with a smile.
Xia Chongde looked up at the man in the flying fish suit, but the man did not clearly indicate whether he could start telling the story or not.
He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "I am the youngest son of the current emperor, named Chongde, and was granted the title of Prince of De. As I have not yet been granted a fief, I am now training in the Dali Temple under the order of the emperor."
"To put it simply, I am now a constable!"
After Xia Chongde said this, everyone present was even more shocked and confused.
"Are you a constable?"
"Are you Duke De?"
What kind of magical combination is this?
After Xia Chongde revealed his identity, the attitudes of the others obviously changed significantly.
Especially the doctor Xia Chongwen.
"I am from Qingzhou. There is also a Lichunlou in Qingzhou. It happened to be the plaque of Lichunlou that was smashed down."
Xia Chongwen spoke calmly, but everyone present had an expression of disbelief on their faces.
It would be fine if there were only two or three cities having Lichun Tower, but there was even one in Qingzhou!
The same brothel, the same plaque smashed down, but in several different places?
"Everyone, you don't believe this so-called Duke of De, do you?" Li Jiujiang saw that everyone's attitude had changed, and asked anxiously, "Would you believe that a prince is also a detective?"
"Well...he is both a prince and a constable. This has precedents in our dynasty, so it's not surprising!"
Xia Chongwen nodded, and it was obvious that he believed in Xia Chongde.
Yes, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty came from the lowest class, so his sons and grandsons would go to the lower classes to gain experience before they reached adulthood.
Xia Xiaoxian knew it very well.
Xia Chongde did not lie at all. He was really a prince and a constable.
It’s true in the game and outside the game!
Xu Yunxuan's plot killing was very well-intentioned.
After a brief silence, everyone turned their attention to Xia Ping'an, whose story had just been interrupted by Xia Chongde.
"My name is Ping An, and I'm a tribute student studying at the Imperial College." Seeing that everyone was looking at him again, Xia Ping An calmed down a little, took a deep breath and said, "Before coming here, I was on my way to meet a classmate. Just as I passed by Lichun Tower, a huge plaque fell down, and I fainted from fear."
"I didn't even see clearly whether the plaque that fell down was the sign of Lichunlou, so I didn't know anything..."
It’s Lichun Tower again, and there’s a plaque again!
However, there is a slight difference. This time, no one needs to ask Ping An where he is from.
The Imperial Academy of the Great Xia Dynasty was only located in the capital city of Kyoto.
Xia Ping'an is in Kyoto!
"That's it?" Xia Chongde looked at Xia Ping'an with that suspicious look again.
"Every word I said is true!"
"OK then!"
Although he was full of doubt, Xia Chongde had to ask, "Who's next?"
