"Why? Why can't you say it?"
Outside Lu Yusheng's house, Xu Zhen had a quarrel with the head catcher Cheng Xiao.
"Don't you already know the identity of that monk?" Xu Zhen asked, "Who is he?"
"Hmph," Cheng Xiao snorted coldly and said angrily to Xu Zhen, "I just said that you and Shen Yu will stay to protect the scene, and you don't need to worry about other things!"
"Captain Cheng," Shen Yu was also very confused, "Who is the monk? Why did he kill these people? We are very curious!"
"Don't say I didn't remind you," Cheng Xiao stretched out a finger and pointed first at Xu Zhen and then at Shen Yu. "From now on, no information about this case will be revealed to anyone. Otherwise, I promise You will be in trouble!"
After saying that, he turned around and left with the other agents.
"Huh?" Shen Yu was puzzled, "What does this mean? Why aren't you allowed to tell me? Why are you so unlucky?"
However, Cheng Xiao and others quickly disappeared from sight without looking back.
At this moment, all the neighbors rushed over to watch the excitement, and the door of Lu Yusheng's house was already surrounded by water.
"Hey! Hey, hey, hey..." Shen Yu did his duty and shouted quickly, "Don't even look at it! Just go and do what you have to do. It's gone, it's gone..."
As she spoke, she stepped forward with her whistle stick and began to disperse the crowd.
This tiger girl was really reckless. She came over with a big stick and knocked down several people immediately, causing them to disperse in a panic.
Xu Zhen looked at Shen Yu, quickly analyzing this bizarre case in his mind.
He had already felt strange before, as if Cheng Xiao seemed extremely relaxed when he solved the puzzle of "horse is long and fish is short".
Now he finally understood that Cheng Xiao knew Liu Sanyang and Lu Yusheng at all, otherwise he would not be so familiar with the places where these two people lived.
Especially after discovering Liu Sanyang's body, Cheng Xiao quickly thought of Lu Yusheng and already knew the identity of the murderer.
This shows that Cheng Xiao should be aware of the grievances between the monk and Magistrate Tong, Liu Sanyang and Lu Yusheng.
The monk should know, so the puzzles were basically given to Cheng Xiao.
But...since Cheng Xiao already knew the truth, why didn't he tell it?
Is there something more powerful involved here?
Magistrate Tong...
Xu Zhen searched his memory but found nothing.
When Magistrate Tong was in Yanping County, he was just a child. How could he remember anything?
"Okay, they're all gone!" Shen Yu returned to Xu Zhen, clapped her hands and said, "Senior Brother Xu, we have to wait for him to come over for the autopsy, right?
"Oh, if two people die, it won't be until midnight when the test comes to us again? Are you cold?" She asked with concern, "If you are cold, then go into the house and light a fire, um... "
At this point, Shen Yu remembered that Lu Yusheng died next to the stove, and if he wanted to warm himself over the fire, he had to roast him with the corpse.
"Xiaoyu," Xu Zhen asked, "Are you afraid of the dead people inside?"
"Ah?" Shen Yu grinned, "Do you really want to go in and warm yourself by the fire?"
"I mean," Xu Zhen said, "can you stay here alone?"
"Ah?" Shen Yu scratched his head, "What do you want to do?"
"Youmeng is alone at home, I have to tell her something," Xu Zhen said, "otherwise she will keep waiting for me."
"This is easy to handle," Shen Yu patted her chest, "Let me go! I'm fast!"
"..." Xu Zhen covered his face and said quickly, "No need, you see, this place is not far from my home. I'll come back as soon as I go!"
"Then... okay, then..." Shen Yu said slightly embarrassed, "Then can you bring me something to eat when you come back? I'm a little hungry!"
"Okay, this is absolutely no problem!" Xu Zhen agreed quickly.
…
Xu Zhen didn't lie. He couldn't go home all night, so he naturally wanted to tell Youmeng to avoid worrying his little wife.
However, when Xu Zhen came home and learned that he had a dream, he did not rush back, but rushed to the Yamen as quickly as possible.
He knew that when Cheng Xiao knew the identity of the monk, he would first go back and report to Song Zhili.
Rush back now, maybe you can hear something.
The reason why Xu Zhen wanted to know the case so urgently was not because of gossip, but because he was afraid of missing important information and delaying the solution of the case.
In addition, he always felt that the monk had another purpose. If he could expose his plan, he might benefit from it.
In this way, he quickly returned to the county government office. He was about to go to the backyard to see if Cheng Xiao was reporting in the inner hall, but he happened to hear two government officials guarding the backyard discussing something.
"Yes, it's for the palace!" One of them pointed to the backyard and said, "Good guy, what kind of hatred is this!"
"Then..." another asked, "can the old county magistrate... still be alive?"
"Alive, alive," the yamen servant said, "Didn't you listen to what the doctor said? His life was temporarily saved. It seems that the murderer dealt with him and deliberately let him survive."
"Really? You said that on purpose," the other one shook his head and sighed, "Oh, that's so cruel. You're still suffering while you're alive, so you might as well just die!"
Just as they were talking, the two of them saw Xu Zhen and stood up straight in a hurry.
"Two brothers," Xu Zhen asked hurriedly: "What did you just say? The palace? That County Magistrate Tong?"
"Yes," one of the yamen servants said, "You were the one who carried the person back, didn't you know?"
Oops...
Xu Zhen was surprised, and then he remembered that he did not check the inside of Magistrate Tong's clothes at that time. Unexpectedly, a knife was also used inside.
"Then..." Xu Zhen asked again, "He's awake now? What did he say?"
"Wake up? Haha," the yamen servant laughed, "Even if you wake up, you can't say anything, right? You're mute. You were drugged to make you mute."
"Yes, that monk is really cruel," said another, "he lost one eye, deafened one ear, made his voice hoarse, and lost all ten fingers and toes, plus he gave it to the palace, oh, hey, How much hatred is this?"
Originally, Xu Zhen wanted to ask them if they could think of any old cases, but when he saw that these two people were also very young, he changed his mind and asked:
"Brothers, have you seen Mr. Cheng? Is he at the old man's place?"
"No," they both replied almost at the same time, "They went to the prison together! They seemed to be walking in a hurry."
Jail?
Xu Zhen thought to himself, it seemed that they were going to see the monk!
Well, they must reveal the monk's identity to his face now. He has to hurry over and see who this person is.
So, Xu Zhen quickly rushed to the cell quietly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he heard the monk laughing: "Hahahaha...hahahaha..."
The laughter was so arrogant and surly that it gave people goosebumps.
"Tell me!" Song Zhili asked next, "Who are you from the Qi family? If you don't tell me, don't blame me for being rude!"
At this time, Xu Zhen discovered that there were still several police officers standing next to the monk's cell, so he crouched and stood behind them.
"Hahahaha..." The monk laughed a few more times and then said, "Master Song, I have two more word puzzles here. Why don't you solve them?"
As he said that, he didn't wait for Song Zhili's reaction before he read aloud: "The six pure roots are also wrong, and the hibiscus flower will only show its face. Hahahaha..."
There is also something wrong with the purification of the six sense organs...
Xu Zhen's mind was spinning rapidly, trying to solve the puzzle as soon as possible.
However, Song Zhili's speed was obviously faster than him. Within a few seconds after the monk finished reciting, Song Zhili was suddenly startled and his body shivered violently.
Immediately afterwards, he seemed to be having a vertigo attack. After shaking a few times, he sat down on the cold floor of the cell.
"Sir...Sir..." Cheng Xiao didn't know why and hurriedly stepped forward to help.
However, before he could hold him, Song Zhili jumped up from the ground and grabbed Cheng Xiao's collar. His eyes were red and he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Quick, go see my children!"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"
Seeing Song Zhili's reaction, the monk laughed even more crazily...
