Yu Qingzhi was so happy that he took out a bottle of old wine from his sleeve to drink with Rong Fei and Ji Rouer under the moonlight.
Finally, he lived up to the wishes of all the previous chief arrests and found a good candidate like Rong Fei, who could hopefully break the curse that the chief arrests of the Ji Xian Division could not break through to the fourth level.
While the wine was in full swing, Yu Qingzhi also took the initiative to introduce another magical power he had learned that seemed trivial, but was actually extremely useful.
"The Qiankun in the Sleeve is a magical power that I realized when I advanced to the fifth level. At first, it has the same effect as a storage magic weapon, but it can only hold about as many things as a basket. As it is used more often, the contents will The space is getting bigger and bigger, and now it's even possible to build a small courtyard inside. Not only that, it can also accommodate living things, but it can't last long, otherwise it's easy to die of suffocation.
If one day the space inside becomes the size of a city, and there is still enough energy for people to breathe, an army can be hidden inside. Sneak into the hinterland of the demon clan and wait for an opportunity to release the army, and it will be easy to regain the northern territory. "
While chatting, Yu Qingzhi asked about Tai Chi again. When Guan Rongfei was boxing this morning, Yu Qingzhi seemed to have some realization in his heart, but it was always as if there was a layer of fog that could not be seen through or touched, which made him feel itchy.
Rong Fei did not hide his secrets, and told Yu Qingzhi all the theories about Tai Chi that he knew and could think of, such as Tai Chi producing two yangs, two yangs producing four images, and four liangs moving a thousand catties.
After chatting until midnight, Yu Qingzhi and Ji Rouer went back to their rooms to rest, and Rong Fei had time to look through the cases he brought back today.
The next morning, Rong Fei had eaten the breakfast prepared by Ji Rou'er, went to the yard to prepare for a boxing session, and then went to Kyoto Prefecture to meet Gu Fengxiao. As soon as he opened his boxing stance, he heard the whistling wind coming from the yard next door.
Rong Fei climbed up the wall and looked at the next door. He saw the yellow leaves flying up and down like a furious dragon. In the center of the countless yellow leaves, a white shirt moved gracefully and lightly, swinging its arms and turning its body.
It was just like the movie scenes that Rong Fei had seen, and the momentum was even greater.
Rong Fei was dumbfounded and envious, so he returned to the middle of the yard and started practicing boxing.
After playing two or three moves, Rong Fei even activated his magical power to control wind and rain, but only a hundred fallen leaves flew randomly around him, which was countless orders of magnitude worse than the momentum of Yu Qingzhi next door.
After clearing away the dishes, Ji Rouer came to the courtyard and watched Rong Fei boxing with interest for a while. Then when she heard the noise next door, she curiously climbed up the wall to look around, but she sat on the wall and refused to come down.
Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away.
Feeling a little boring, Rong Fei simply stopped practicing boxing. He said hello to Ji Rouer and left home and went straight to Kyoto Prefecture.
When they arrived at the document room specially prepared for the two of them in Kyoto Prefecture, Gu Fengxiao had already arrived and was immersed in the vast sea of cases, sorting and summarizing them according to the method Rong Fei taught him yesterday.
The two spent a whole morning talking about the hundreds of cases in this document room, classifying them according to the severity of the case, the time of the case, and whether there were sufficient clues.
He spent another afternoon sorting out the detailed solutions to those cases with sufficient evidence, clear clues and relatively simple facts, and handed them over to the governor Chen Xiusong before the official duty of the Kyoto Prefecture.
The Anti-immortal Division has the power to investigate cases in all levels of state capitals across the country, and even review cases that have been closed by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, but it does not have the right to try cases and pronounce judgments. Therefore, the trial and conclusion of cases will ultimately fall on Chen Xiusong.
Chen Xiusong, the governor of Kyoto, is also a strange person.
Although the governor of Kyoto has a high and powerful position, it is really not an easy job. Since the founding of Dayan, except for the first governor of Kyoto who died of illness during his tenure, the other governors can only serve for one term at most, which is four years. Most of them will be impeached and resigned for various reasons in one or two years. They can serve for three years. There are only a few young people.
But this Chen Xiusong has held this position for three terms, a full twelve years.
Chen Xiusong was able to achieve this miracle with only four words of know-how - impartial enforcement of the law.
No matter how big the case was, as long as it was in Chen Xiusong's hands, no matter whether it was a note from the palace or a private greeting from the chief minister of the cabinet, he would ignore it and act in accordance with Dayan's laws.
Logically speaking, a young guy like him should be kicked off the stage before his butt gets hot. But precisely because of its super-neutral stance that neither side pleases nor surrenders to, all forces in the DPRK and China are very satisfied.
Although this position cannot be grabbed by oneself, it will definitely not fall into the hands of other forces. Since this is the case, let's keep it like this, and it will save everyone the trouble of fighting over each other.
Since then, Chen Xiusong has become a legend in Dayan officialdom.
Chen Xiusong has an upright character and has become the best candidate for the governor of Kyoto that satisfies all parties. But when it comes to his ability as an official, he is at an average level, otherwise he would not have three or four warehouses filled with unsolved cases.
Now when he meets Rong Fei, it's like thunder stirring up fire in the earth. An adulterer meets an adulterer. The two hit it off and complement each other.
After seeing the details of the trial sent by Rong Fei, Chen Xiusong was so impressed that he immediately decided to work overtime tonight for all members of the Kyoto Prefecture. They would collect evidence and review the case according to the details of the case overnight, and the case would be formally heard in court early tomorrow morning. .
Chen Xiusong's vigorous and resolute style also deeply infected Rong Fei and Gu Fengxiao. He sent a government servant to Xuanwu Hutong to inform Ji Rou'er, and then went into the filing room again.
The simple cases have all been submitted, but the remaining dozen or so cases are either too complex to be concluded based on the case alone, or important evidence is missing, requiring a new on-site investigation and evidence collection.
Seeing that it was getting late, Rong Fei selected two cases that happened in the city to investigate overnight.
The fifth small courtyard on the left side of Chuntao Lane in the west of the city.
The owner of the home is an old couple with no children. They were found dead on the bed by their neighbors three days ago. Their bodies were covered with stab wounds. The male owner's fatal injury was the severed blood vessels in his neck, while the female owner died of excessive blood loss.
A hatchet stained with blood and bone fragments was found at the crime scene. Comparison with the wound of the deceased confirmed that the hatchet was the murder weapon.
There were messy footprints on the ground inside the house, some of which were mixed with blood.
The door bolt of the courtyard door is intact, but there are signs of prying on the lower edge of the door bolt of the house.
In the room where the deceased lived, cabinets, drawers, boxes and other furniture had been opened, and the items inside were scattered all over the floor. There were also obvious signs of rummaging under the bed. No silver coins, copper coins, treasure notes or other valuable belongings were found in the room. However, according to the neighbors, the old couple's family is considered well-off in the surrounding area, so it is impossible that they do not have any belongings at home.
Therefore, the detective responsible for investigating the case speculated that the murderer was discovered by the old couple when he was burglarizing the house, and the murderer killed the two people and then fled away with their belongings.
After visiting and investigating the surrounding neighbors, the police quickly identified a nephew of the old couple as a suspect.
The police rushed to this person's home and found that the person was stuffing something into the stove in a panic. The police rushed to subdue the man, put out the stove and found a pair of blood-stained cloth shoes. After comparison, the shoe prints of this pair of shoes matched the length and weight of the shoe prints at the crime scene. Later, they rented them from this man. Some missing treasures and jewelry were found in a dry well in the backyard of the dilapidated house where he lived, and the police arrested the man and sent him to jail.
Now three days have passed and all kinds of punishments have been exhausted, but this man still gritted his teeth and insisted that he was not the murderer.
He only said that when he went to visit his uncle and aunt yesterday, he found that his two elders had been killed, and he planned to report it to the police. Seeing some pieces of silver and a few pieces of jewelry scattered on the ground, I greedily picked up these belongings and wanted to keep them for myself, but I accidentally stepped on the blood on the ground.
When he was about to clean up, he heard the sound of someone walking outside the courtyard, and fled the scene in panic.
After returning home, this person felt a little regretful, which makes it even more unclear.
After thinking about it all night, I finally didn't dare to report it to the official. After getting up in the morning, he threw the treasures and jewelry he picked up into the dry well in the backyard. When he was about to burn the blood-stained shoes, the police broke in and captured him.
The police had no choice but to put the case on hold for later processing.
Rong Fei and Gu Fengxiao arrived at the small courtyard before dark. It must be said that the police in Kyoto Prefecture were relatively reliable. The crime scene was completely consistent with the records in the case file, and there were no omissions.
While checking the clues at the scene according to the case, Rong Fei became interested in the footprints on the ground. Regardless of the dust and choking his nose, he lay down next to a footprint stained with a few drops of blood and looked at it for a while before getting up.
Then he checked the doors, windows, courtyard gates, fences, etc. before leaving.
After walking out of the courtyard, Gu Fengxiao raised his feet and started to walk towards the residence where the old man's nephew lived, but Rong Fei pulled him around to the back of the courtyard.
Behind the yard is a small vegetable patch, which is fenced on three sides by wooden boards as high as one person.
Rong Fei inspected the boards one by one along the fence, and finally found traces of pedaling on two boards. He looked closer and found a small piece of black stuff on the rough edge of the board.
The thing was about the size of a fingernail, curved on one side and irregularly torn on the other.
"What's this?"
Gu Fengxiao came over and asked curiously.
"Hardened rags, I guess the soles."
Rong Fei guessed.
"Hey, it seems true. But, does this have anything to do with the case?"
Gu Fengxiao asked.
"It's not clear yet, but we should know the answer soon."
Rong Fei took out the storage jade ring from his arms and took out a piece of rag to wrap what seemed to be the sole of a shoe. Gu Fengxiao's eyes were full of envy when he saw the storage jade ring.
The number of treasures that can be used as storage is rare. Nowadays, Ji Xiansi is very poor, but there is no one. Gu Fengxiao can only feel envious.
After putting away the evidence, Rong Fei stood up and looked at both sides of the path. It can be seen from the dust on the path that few pedestrians pass by here. After carefully checking the shoe prints and dust marks on the path, Rong Fei waved his hand and led Gu Fengxiao towards the west.
At the end of the path is a north-south alley. Because it rained the day before yesterday and the temperature has been very cool these two days, the soil is still moist, so there are many muddy shoe prints on the road.
After identifying them, the two walked towards the north side of the alley.
The alleys twist and turn among the houses, like narrow paths with no forks.
Walking out of the alley and into a long street, the bright moon has risen in the sky, and the scenery suddenly becomes clear under the moonlight.
Rong Fei looked towards both sides of the long street, and his eyes were quickly attracted by a flag fluttering in the night wind.
Changle Gambling House.
Rong Fei smiled slightly, and that was what he was thinking.
