Xu Taiping said coldly: "The murder of the courtesan."
The detectives were immediately stunned.
"It turned out to be that case."
"It was half a year ago, right?"
"Four months, less than half a year, the person who died was Shui Qingqing, the oiran of Qunfang House."
"Speaking of which, I've seen Shui Qingqing, that figure, that face..."
"Ahem, Mr. Xu, do you want to ask the county magistrate for instructions on this case?"
Ask Zhou Yucheng for instructions?
Need not.
The dossier was given by Zhou Yucheng himself.
No matter what Zhou Yucheng's true purpose is, it is enough to prove Zhou Yucheng's attitude.
Asking for instructions now will definitely lead to no results.
and.
I want to solve the case.
This case involves so much, the reward must be huge.
Maybe you can directly activate the "Rejuvenation Technique" skill.
so.
The crime must be solved.
No matter what Zhou Yucheng's attitude is, I will solve this case and make it a solid case.
So, he waved his hand and said, "Stop talking nonsense and come with me to arrest people."
Only then did the detectives react.
The person Mr. Xu wants to arrest is Wang Yong, the county military garrison chief who he asked them to look for in the morning.
etc.
Catch Wang Yong?
An officer?
Or the commander in charge of a hundred soldiers?
Even if the village chief is not an officer, he is still a high-ranking figure in Jianyang County.
There are 800 county soldiers in Jianyang County.
There are eight village chiefs in total.
In addition to county captains, captains, and military commanders, there are also village commanders.
If you count the county magistrate and county magistrate.
There are only five or six officials above the village chief.
Really caught?
Although it is not to arrest people in the military camp.
But what is the difference between fighting against the county soldiers?
Fighting?
Everyone is just a low-class handyman, just making ends meet.
Is it necessary to go against the army?
Don't want to die?
so.
The policeman who reacted immediately hesitated.
Xu Taiping saw this.
There is no fluctuation in my heart.
It was already expected.
His face was a little gloomy, and cold eyes swept across the faces of the police officers.
After a while.
He said calmly: "If you don't want to go, stay and guard the house."
"Crash-"
In an instant, more than a dozen agents left the team.
During hesitation.
A few more broke away.
Xu Taiping asked expressionlessly: "Is there anyone else who wants to stay?"
No one answered.
Xu Taiping patted the oxtail knife and strode out.
Wu Liuyi, Wang Dashan, Zheng Bowen and others led the remaining 21 detectives to follow quickly.
In the south of the city, Cuiyu Square.
The village chief, Wang Yong, led thirty county soldiers, knocking on doors from east to west along an alley.
The door opens a little slowly.
They just kicked the door open, then swarmed in, dragged out all the men, women, and children in the house, and searched them.
Anyone who resisted was beaten violently or even killed on the spot.
As a result, the originally peaceful Jade Square was in chaos.
Some people wanted to escape and hide somewhere else.
However, he was blocked by the county soldiers who had already been guarding outside.
Wang Yong led thirty county soldiers and knocked on the door.
The remaining seventy people gathered in small groups and blocked all exits of Cuiyu Square.
Finished cleaning up the two thorns.
Wang Yong twisted his neck with satisfaction: "Come on, next door, knock on the door."
Two soldiers rushed over and smashed the door like wolves.
"Dong dong dong——"
"Dong dong——"
The door panel shook violently.
The door bolt almost broke.
The walls were shaken to pieces.
"Open the door——"
"On the order of the county magistrate, we are searching for monsters. If you dare to disobey the order, you will be punished for harboring monsters!"
"Open the door——"
The door slowly opened.
Revealing an old face.
It's an old lady.
The old lady forced a smile, tremblingly took out a few broken pieces of silver, and held them in front of the soldier with both hands: "Jun, Jun, please do well. My old man is seriously ill and cannot bear the fright and torture..."
Two soldiers grabbed the silver.
Weigh it twice.
Looking at Wang Yong: "Boss, there are four or five liang."
Wang Yong glanced into the yard and asked, "Who else is at home?"
"It's just us, an old couple, and a little granddaughter."
"Little granddaughter? How old is she?"
"Ten, thirteen years old."
Wang Yong's eyes lit up, but he shouted sternly: "Bold, old man, if you are so innocent, how can you be willing to bribe me with five taels of silver? There must be something wrong!
“Come here, search for me, General!
"Be careful and don't let anyone suspicious go!"
Before he could finish his words, he pushed the panicked old woman away and rushed into the yard.
For a moment.
An old man and a thin little girl were dragged out from the room.
The old man was paralyzed, with more air coming in and less air coming out. Being tortured like this, he was about to meet the King of Hell.
The little girl is very thin.
But she is quite tall.
Her complexion is fair and her appearance is upright, with vague traces of a beautiful woman.
Wang Yong's eyes became brighter.
He shouted loudly: "The general suspected that the three members of this family are monsters. Someone came and tied them with monster ropes and took them back to the general's residence. After the search was completed, they were sent to the military camp for questioning."
Some soldiers rushed forward.
He took out three slender ropes and put them on the three of them.
Just one pull.
It was tied very firmly.
The old man was already weak, but after being bundled like this, he spit out a mouthful of blood and tilted his head.
The old lady had no power to struggle. She was in tears, her mouth was closed, and she couldn't say a word. She could only look at her little granddaughter with a look of despair.
A soldier reported back: "General, that old man is dead."
"What old man? He's a monster."
"Yes, General, the monster is dead, what should I do with it?"
"The county magistrate has an order. If there is resistance, you can kill them on the spot. Get the fire oil and burn them all."
The soldier said nothing.
He took out the skin bag, removed the stopper, and poured a large mouthful of clear-colored Lihuo oil on the old man.
He took out his huozhezi, lit a piece of cloth, and threw it over.
"boom--"
Green-blue flames soared into the sky, emitting compelling heat.
Wang Yong took two steps back, laughed loudly, and waved his hand again: "Throw this female monster over and burn it together."
"Yes, General!"
The two soldiers grabbed the frightened old woman and threw them at the burning old man.
"don't want--"
The tied little girl screamed in despair.
Struggling desperately.
Clothes were torn.
But the bundle of demon ropes was made by the imperial court and was a standard magic weapon. Although it was not of high grade and had average power, it was not something that a mortal could break free from.
The harder he struggled, the tighter the binding became.
It strangled the little girl's skin and penetrated deep into her muscles. In some places, bones were even visible.
But the little girl seemed unaware and was still struggling desperately.
He screamed piercingly at the burning grandparents, with tears and blood rolling down his face, looking like a ghost.
Wang Yong saw this.
He curled his lips in disgust: "Damn it, I'm not interested anymore."
The soldier under his command whispered: "What should we do?"
"Burn them together and say they are three vixens who resisted fiercely and were killed by us together."
"good!"
Soldiers take orders.
He grabbed the little girl and threw her into the blazing fire.
But just when he was about to throw it out.
There was a flash of white light.
"call out--"
A short knife passed by the soldier's face and was nailed to the window frame.
penetrating.
The handle of the knife was still trembling slightly.
Wait until the handle becomes quiet.
A group of people walked in at the gate.
He is fully armed, with an oxtail knife, an iron ruler, a rope, a waist tag, and the iconic gray uniform with the word "capture" on it.
It was Xu Taiping and his agents.
Xu Taiping pulled out the oxtail knife.
Point to Wang Yong.
He shouted expressionlessly: "Wang Yong, let's capture him without mercy!"
