Because they could only walk, Xu Zhen and others did not return to the county government until dark at Youshi.
In order not to betray anyone, Xu Zhen first asked Li Zheng, Baozheng and others to wait in the lobby of the county government office, and then went to the inner hall to report the whole incident to Chen Houlu.
Chen Houlu was surprised when he heard this. He thought Xu Zhen had given him a holiday these days, but he didn't expect that he would go to Yaochang Village to solve such a major case.
In fact, although the mass poisoning and murder case in Yaochang Village was serious, in the eyes of the county magistrate, it was a rather troublesome matter to deal with.
First, there was no case filed at the beginning, and now the trial needs to start from scratch, which is very cumbersome.
Secondly, there is little merit in this case, and there is no motivation for the county magistrate.
However, with Song Zhili's experience, Chen Houlu dared not object to Xu Zhen's proposal, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and accept the case.
It has to be said that he is also secretly looking forward to it, can he be like Song Zhili, who has accumulated fame due to these cases, and will become a governor in the future?
Of course, trying this case is not troublesome at all, because since it is a case that Xu Zhen took the initiative to investigate, it is natural to leave it to Xu Zhen to handle it. How can I not end up in a free situation?
Therefore, after getting Chen Houlu's consent, Xu Zhen first settled his colleagues in the arresting room, and the seven corpses were not sent to Yizhuang.
Because he had to wait for the arrival of someone at the county government office, and that was Meng Qingxi's son Meng Zhixiao.
Before that, Xu Zhen specially sent Shen Yu to handle this matter. He originally felt that everything was safe, but now that the assassination happened, Xu Zhen couldn't help but feel a little worried.
I wonder if Meng Ji-hyo will also be assassinated?
Will Shen Yu be in danger?
However... Judging from today's encounter, the masked gangster's target was Meng Qingxi, and it seemed that he had no intention of harming anyone else.
If Li Chan'er hadn't come out halfway and disrupted their plan, they would have killed Meng Qingxi with just one crossbow arrow and then retreated immediately.
Li Chan'er...
Xu Zhen's thoughts suddenly fluctuated when he thought of this Bingshan Jade Sister.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry to question Li Zheng and others one by one, nor was he in a hurry to examine the body.
Instead, he calmed down and went over the whole thing again.
After being assassinated, Xu Zhen immediately launched a pursuit offensive against Li Chaner. This move seemed nonsensical, but it actually had a very important reason, and that was that Xu Zhen was scared!
Yes, although Xu Zhen is a time traveler, he is also a human being.
Before that, even though the yamen had undergone tremendous changes, he had never been afraid of anything.
But when he saw Meng Qingxi being shot by a crossbow and the six masked gangsters seeing that the assassination failed, they all committed suicide by swallowing pills, he was really scared!
First of all, this assassination was very professional! The six gangsters are also very dedicated!
It can be seen that all of them have extraordinary martial arts skills. Logically speaking, only one of them can complete the task.
But they sent six of them at once!
Originally, they could have retreated quickly after discovering a sudden change and the assassination plan was ruined by a nearly invincible female Taoist nun.
However, they would rather risk their lives than rush out to kill Meng Qingxi, which shows how determined they are to complete their mission!
Therefore, based on this alone, Xu Zhen can make a judgment: the other party is not an individual action, but should come from some kind of rigorous organization.
The second reason is why they wanted to kill Meng Qingxi?
At this point, Xu Zhen could naturally imagine that the reason why Meng Qingxi was killed was probably because of that poison!
Xu Zhen had felt before that such a violent and mysterious poison must not have come from the people.
After ruling out the possibility of the palace, it also pointed to some kind of secret organization.
There must be a mysterious organization behind the mysterious drug delivery person.
So, could it be that the mysterious drug delivery person didn't want Meng Qingxi to reveal too many organization secrets, so he sent someone to assassinate him?
Finally, it was the name Meng Qingxi told herself before she died: Meng Qinghui!
At first, Xu Zhen felt clueless when he heard Meng Qinghui's name, and it seemed to have nothing to do with the assassination.
However, after careful analysis, Xu Zhen thought of a possibility.
Does Meng Qingxi mean that Meng Qinghui's identity is not simple?
How did Meng Qinghui become the richest man in Yaochang Village? Is there... something hidden behind it?
If analyzed along this line of thinking, it seems even more intriguing that the Meng Qinghui family suffered a mass poisoning incident.
Could it be that... the mysterious drug delivery person was using Meng Qingxi to get rid of Meng Qinghui?
To sum up, Xu Zhen can draw many conclusions, but the most important one is that he has offended the mysterious organization invisibly.
Especially when Meng Qingxi spoke to him at the end. If the mysterious organization knew about it, then... what would he face next?
Tsk tsk...
Coming to this conclusion, Xu Zhen felt quite helpless.
No matter how smart he was, he would never have imagined that there was such a major crisis hidden behind the mass poisoning case.
Now, he was really in trouble. How could he not be afraid?
In the past, all the problems he encountered were obvious, but now being targeted by unknown things is definitely not a good thing.
But at this moment, Xu Zhen saw Li Chan'er's superb martial arts, her free-spirited Emei thorns, her chic and elegant figure, her perfect face on her Y-spot, and her excellent quality of hating evil...
So...he just thought of an idea to resolve the crisis and keep himself safe forever, that is: launch a pursuit offensive against Li Chan'er and marry her to be his personal bodyguard!
If I can get the blessing of Sister Bingshan, then I'm still afraid of your mysterious organization?
Of course, Xu Zhen is a veteran. He knows that for a beauty like Li Chan'er who is as cold as an iceberg and aloof, only a well-known hero with unparalleled martial arts skills and a restrained spirit may be able to win her favor.
If a little catcher like me wants to eat swan meat, then he can only take a different approach and adhere to the eternal three-character mantra of chasing women, that is - don't be shameless! ! !
There was no way, Xu Zhen didn't want to be so grandiose, but the opportunity was too late to come again. If Li Chan'er left Yanping in the future, I'm afraid he would never see her again in his life, and he would really forget about each other.
Therefore, your own happiness must be controlled by yourself, and hard work will pay off.
Xu Zhen knew this well, so he boldly confessed his love to Sister Bingshan, and when the Emei thorn pressed hard on his neck, he acted bravely and fearlessly, showing the spirit of sacrificing for love like "cut your thorn on my throat."
Of course, Xu Zhen is the most accurate judge of people. He has already understood Li Chan'er's character and is sure that Li Chan'er can't really hurt him.
And later, after the Emei thorn was finally taken back, Xu Zhen made Li Chaner angry again. This is actually one of the peerless rules for chasing girls, that is, after being shameless, you have to pretend not to care.
Only by playing hard to get can a beauty be interested.
Therefore, although Li Chan'er was tormented by Xu Zhen and seemed very angry with Xu Zhen, in fact, it once again deepened the impression of Xu Zhen in her mind, making her unable to get rid of it.
Of course, the reason why Xu Zhen provoked Li Chaner away had more considerations...
