Maiden Holmes 少女大人 Episode 2

In order to open Su Ci’s shackles/ handcuffs, Pei Zhao suddenly pulled out Su Ci’s hairpin, which made Su looked to be more like a woman rather than a man. Pei Zhao had eye problems from an injury he had from the war he fought, so he shook it off and said nah. Su had Pei Zhao quickly opened and released the shackles.  

Xie Beiming was awakened with a splash of water.  Dong Rushuang misunderstood and thought Xie was a bad guy trying to rape her. He explained that she told him she was cold, so he gave her his top coat. Then, she cried out again of being cold, so he gave her another layer of his clothes, but then she said she was still cold, so he did what he thought was to help her keep warm. Dong Rushuang then finally claimed down. 

Pei Zhao and Su Ci both fell into a ditch. Pei Zhao lifted Su Ci so she can climb to the top, and then Su Ci took the rope pulled Pei Zhao up.

They met up with  Xie, Dong and Pei's little boy servant.  Pei little boy servant was already familiar with Xie Beiming and quickly introduced him to Pei Zhao. When Pei Zhao heard Xie Beiming’s name, he knew that he was the young owner of Feiyun Villa and introduced himself, but he did not expect that he was recognized as King Qi by Xie Beiming. Pei preventet Xie Beiming exposing his identity.  Su Ci also introduced herself, and Xie Beiming had already heard about the young legendary detective Su Ci as well.

Dong Rushuang realized that everyone there was famous, so she hurriedly stepped forward to introduce herself. Su Ci asked where the sacrificing girl was, Dong said she gave that girl some money and sent her away. Dong Rushuang told them that she wanted to teach those evil people a lesson by poisoing them, before they ruin her plan. She still wanted to teach the ignorant villagers  a lesson, but she let it go.

Xie Beiming explained to Pei Zhao that he admire him and wants to be like him. He asked to join Pei in his investigation, he agreed only if Xie kept Pei's real idenity a secret. They both agreed. 

Outside, Su Ci was reading a manhua about King Qi  which was Pei Zhao- but she didn't know. Pei went over and handed Su Ci a roasted pigeon, but she refused it. He asked if it is because she thought it was dirty. She said no it is only because she has a special eyes that can see more than the regular people. Pei then responded by saying then you must have more problems and troubles than the regular people. Su Ci knew that Pei Zhao’s eyes were bad when she was in the black hole. He saw that Pei Zhao’s fingers had a rings around it, which must have been caused by drawing the bow all the time in battle. Therefore, she guessed that Pei Zhao must have been on the battlefield before and his eyes must have been injured and wounded by the enemy. 

Pei Zhao gets a flashback of the war. He lied and said that he had fought the battlefield with King Qi before, and recalled that he had been framed by a traitor, and he had no choice but to return the soldier talisman to the emperor. 

While they were investigating the Sea Dragon King’s Silver Swallowing case. Xie Beiming dived into the water to find evidence at the bottom of the river. Xie Beiming retrieved some items, including fragments of the ship’s board. Pei Zhao’s sharp nose instint was able to smell the peculiar smell of the boat plank. He was able smell of gunpowder, which proves that the ship board was blown up and not swallowed.  Su Ci gave the ship board to the county magistrate of Qingshui County. The county magistrate did not care about the people’s sacrifices or the whereabouts of the silver, so he determined that the Sea Dragon King had taken the silver. It also claimed that none of the locks of the silver box were damaged. When the box was opened, it was opened in front of the big guy. Indeed, the silver was replaced with  stones. That lock was still a special lock with the word “Ji” made by the court, but Su Ci claimed that the silver lock this time was handwritten by the emperor.

Pei Zhao also said that the upper and lower sides of the emperor’s handwriting were habitually short. The lock on the box is not like that. They had suspicion, so the county magistrate reprimanded Pei Zhao for speaking saying he has no right.

Pei Zhao and Su Ci discussed where the relief silver was dropped. The two came to the salvage ship to check if there were any flaws. Su Ci found that there were two traces of water lines on the salvage hull, which must be the ship after unloading the stone. Only when it becomes lighter.

At the same time, Su Ci saw a place where the fishing net broke, so he speculated that if the salvage ship wanted to avoid the eyes and ears of the crowd and brought it back, it must have loaded the relief silver in the fishing net and dragged it back in the water. After discussing, he decided to confront the county magistrate. At this moment, several men in black attacked them. After several battles, the men in black were beaten away and the two returned home. , It must be the lighter ship after the stone was unloaded.
