Changze County.
The body was found last night.
In front of Cui Yong’s house.
Dozens of policemen gathered nearby to maintain order, and there were many people watching the excitement standing around, whispering and discussing.
"Did you see clearly, how many people died?"
"I heard it's six."
"Not only that, five members of the Wolf Gang died outside. There was also a leader of the Wolf Gang named Chai in the yard. Cui Yong died in the house."
"Cui Yong is dead too? It's really satisfying."
"Those who died as a result of the evil wolf gang deserved it. They have done all their evil deeds and have received retribution."
"Shh, keep your voice down, or you might get into trouble if someone hears you."
More and more people gathered here, craning their necks to look inside, and there were more and more rumors about this matter.
"Who could have done it?"
"I don't know. Most of the people who died were members of the Wolf Gang, maybe they were underworld gangsters from the Blackwater Gang."
"It's very possible that Cui Yong was unlucky and saw the murder process, but was silenced. When such a big thing happened, both Yan Captou and Cui Captou came."
Everyone didn't know what was going on inside, so they just made random guesses.
However, the Wolf Gang is able to run rampant in Changze County with the support of Yan Baotou and the county government, and everyone seems to have a clear conscience.
That Cui Captou is Cui Yong's relative is also known to everyone.
yard.
Cui Zhao and Yan Ji had just examined the body, and they both frowned and looked solemn.
Yan Jidao: "The five outside the door were all killed with one sword. There was no sign of struggle. This man is a master."
Both of them are ninth-grade warriors designated by the imperial court. If they take action, they can kill five members of the Wolf Gang.
But it takes some effort and can't be done so cleanly.
The five members of the Wolf Gang didn't even have time to pull out their swords.
This person's martial arts is definitely better than the two of them, at least more than one level!
Cui Zhao thought for a moment and said in deep thought: "The five people outside died in the hands of one person. Someone else should have killed Chai Tianrong and Cui Yong."
He checked the wounds and found that the wounds of the five Wolf Gang members were sword wounds. Cui Yong in the house was tortured and then stabbed to death.
"The scene at that time may be that Chai Tianrong escaped by chance and broke through the courtyard door, but he never thought that he would meet the murderer who had just killed Cui Yong."
Cui Zhao knelt down and stared at the five fingerprints on Chai Tianrong's face. He covered them with one hand and held the other hand into a claw, placing it on Chai Tianrong's throat.
Cui Zhao gestured in the air and speculated: "The two only fought for one round, and the murderer used the tiger's mouth in Fuhu Fist to grab food and crush their throats."
Yan Ji said in a deep voice: "This man is also a master."
Cui Zhao nodded and said: "This man has extremely strong hands, and he abandoned his sword and killed Chai Tianrong in one move with his bare hands, which shows his strength."
Yan Jidao: "This person deliberately used an ordinary boxing technique like Fuhu Fist. He obviously wanted to hide his true method and was worried about exposing his identity."
This man is so confident that even if he uses Fuhu Fist, he is sure to kill Chai Tianrong with one move!
Is the murderer eighth grade, seventh grade, or higher?
Cui Zhao and Yan Ji were not sure.
When did two such masters come to Changze County?
Due to the heavy wind and snow, not many clues were left at the scene.
The two catchers were able to make a rough guess about what happened last night based on the injuries on the body.
However, both of them misjudged the murderer's strength.
At this moment, the third head catcher from Changze County walked over slowly. He was very young, only about twenty years old.
It is said that he was originally working as an errand in the county government office, but because of his mistakes, he was demoted to our Changze County.
"Xiao Meng, what's going on over there?"
Yan Ji asked in a deep voice.
Although they were both head catchers, in the eyes of Yan Ji and Cui Zhao, this newcomer Meng Liangyu could only be regarded as a junior.
"Two white servants died in an alley on the street. Their throats were slit with a knife. It was a ruthless person who did it."
Meng Liangyu held a bamboo stick in his mouth, with a hint of cynicism in his eyebrows. He glanced around and said, "Counting these seven, nine people died in one night. This is a big case. What do the two arresters say?"
Cui Zhao and Yan Ji were silent and looked at each other.
The two of them had worked in the county government for many years, and they were both experienced. They could guess each other's thoughts and understand each other just by looking at each other.
"Xiao Meng."
Yan Jidao: "You have been in our Changze County for half a year, and you have never shown anything. This is a rare opportunity. I will leave this case to you."
Cui Zhao also nodded and said: "If you find the murderer this time and make a great contribution, Magistrate Sun will give you a few good words, and maybe you can return to the county government office as an errand."
After hearing this, Meng Liangyu showed a playful smile and asked: "Captain Yan, the person who died this time was a member of the Wolf Gang. Don't you want to investigate it yourself?"
Then he turned his eyes to Cui Zhao and asked, "That one inside seems to be your nephew. Mr. Cui doesn't want to catch the murderer and take revenge?"
"They're just distant relatives, not that close."
Cui Zhao said: "Of course, I definitely want to catch the murderer, but we two old people must give the young people a chance."
"Yes, Xiao Meng, you have to take advantage of it."
Yan Ji patted Meng Liangyu on the shoulder, with high hopes in his eyes.
"Haha, thank you two head catchers."
Meng Liangyu chuckled.
Cui Zhao and Yan Ji exchanged a few words and left first.
Meng Liangyu watched the two people leaving, spit out the bamboo sticks in her mouth, and sneered in her heart.
He still doesn’t know what these two people are planning?
He just took a quick look and found that this case was quite difficult.
There is more than one murderer, and they are all masters!
The two of them must be worried that if they continue the investigation, they will attract each other's attention and get burned.
People from the Wolf Gang die when they die, and it is normal for a few people in the gang to die.
Those three white servants were minor officials at best, and they were nothing in the eyes of the county government.
There is no need for the two catchers to mobilize their troops and put themselves in danger for such a few people.
In fact, Meng Liangyu didn't have much interest in this case.
In his opinion, the nine people last night all had a way to die, and they deserved to die.
However, he was quite interested in the murderer of this case and was a little curious to see who the other party was.
The Wolf Gang killed six people, most likely at the hands of the Blackwater Gang.
But the Blackwater Gang's branch in Changze County should not have such a master.
The two major gangs were relatively peaceful before, and I haven't heard of any conflicts recently.
Moreover, looking at the corpses at the scene, it seemed more like a chance encounter between the two parties than a prepared interception.
If this is the case, the murderer is most likely an outsider.
The deaths of Cui Yong and the two white servants seemed like a long-planned vendetta.
Meng Liangyu touched his chin and thought for a long time, and gradually got some clues.
If you want to investigate, you can first check the outsiders who have entered Changze County these days, and you should gain something.
Of course, Meng Liangyu didn't plan to investigate the case in a big way, and he was just bored and looking for something to do.
…
Nine people died in Changze County overnight, causing quite a stir.
But after a few days, the furor subsided.
The county government office hurriedly buried the body and disposed of it as if it had never happened, and no one was heard to investigate the case.
On the other hand, Capt. Meng occasionally took people from house to house to comfort them, telling them to relax and not be afraid.
The Wolf Gang stepped up their vigilance and looked around for information, but unfortunately, they had no clues and gained nothing.
In the following period, no such incident occurred, and Changze County returned to peace.
That long snowy night seemed to be just a coincidence.
This incident has brought an unexpected benefit to the people of Changze County.
For a period of time since then, the Wolf Gang and the white servants have been much more low-key, arrogant and domineering, and their unbridled arrogance has obviously been restrained.
The people in the county breathed a sigh of relief and secretly clapped their hands, hoping that the Wolf Gang would disappear completely.
