Zhou Qi couldn't help but cover his face. There was no reason for guests to bring their own food and drinks. He immediately greeted the Yamen at the door of the house and prepared to write and deliver the food.
Wei Lianzhang couldn't help but laugh. Although the man in front of him had a weird personality, he did suit his taste, and he might be able to ask for help with that matter.
He poured out the water in his tea bowl and signaled Qin Bai to pour some Coca-Cola.
Qin Bai shook the Coke gourd in his hand before pouring it out. He used his true energy to control the temperature of the Coke to a level that was slightly cool but not harmful to the stomach. The same was true for the alcohol.
Wei Lianzhang picked up the tea cup and felt a slight coolness in his palm. He suddenly became interested: "Although I am not addicted to wine, I have drunk a lot from all over the world. I have even tasted tribute wine, but it is a pity that Liangcheng has stopped now. Brewing.”
While he was speaking, he raised his tea cup and took a sip of Coke. His face suddenly froze and his expression became extremely complicated.
It's not that it tastes bad, but I've never had such a weird drink.
There are bubbles rising in the mouth of the wine, and the tongue feels slightly numb, and then the sweet taste fills the mouth.
The wine taste is not strong, but it is very special.
Wei Lianzhang had drank wine and sweet wine for so many years, but he had never tasted anything like Qin Bai, so he couldn't help but lower his head and take another sip.
"This wine is really weird..."
After thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly said with a smile: "There is a faint rusty smell of iron. Could it be that it was brewed in a large iron vat."
"Huh? Cough cough cough..."
Qin Bai suddenly choked on the Coca-Cola. He took a sip of it unbelievingly and actually tasted it. However, the smell of rust mixed in it was not obtrusive.
Zhou Qi was also a little curious, but after all, he was responsible for Wei Lianzhang's safety, so he didn't try.
The two drank a few more drinks, but they stopped ordering when they felt a little tipsy. However, a lot of side dishes were served. They chatted while eating, mainly exchanging fishing techniques.
But Qin Bai was different from the past. He had outstanding achievements, so he couldn't help but show off.
However, it sounded ridiculous to Wei Lianzhang and the two of them. If they caught a big fish weighing hundreds of kilograms in the desert or caught a monster python in the river, then the next step would be to go to heaven.
Seeing their disbelief, Qin Bai almost wanted to spit out the little crocodile that had grown to more than two meters long.
Wei Lianzhang quickly changed the subject: "Qin Bai, do you think if there is a large family that is as rich as the enemy, how can we check their account books?"
Qin Bai couldn't help but replied: "You don't represent the government, do you need a reason?"
"Ahem, cough, cough, I'm not just asking casually, you just have to answer from your own point of view."
"Well... As for me, if there is no evidence, just create evidence. Anyway, as long as the purpose is achieved."
After hearing what Qin Bai said, Wei Lianzhang couldn't help but slap the table: "Okay, I'm just above the surface. I benefited a lot from today's meal."
Qin Bai secretly thought about what the other party had said before.
A wealthy man with astonishing wealth?
Looking at the whole of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are many wealthy businessmen who can be regarded as extremely wealthy, but in the city of Suzhou, probably no one can handle wealth as much as Hanshan Temple.
Moreover, Zuo Qianhu, who suddenly came to Gusu, is also very suspicious. I am afraid that the government has already thought of taking action against Hanshan Temple.
Thinking of this, although Qin Bai remained calm on the surface, he had already made up his mind.
He took a look at the sky and thought it was almost time, so he asked by the way: "By the way, Old Wei, is there a lot of things going on in the Yamen lately?"
"I'll look through it..."
Wei Lianzhang's mind was not on the yamen, and many files on the table were untouched. After he glanced at them a few times, his expression suddenly became serious.
He then handed the file directly to Qin Bai: "See if it has anything to do with demons."
Qin Bai has the ability to see ten lines in one glance, but he read it over after a few breaths, and found that the content written on it was indeed very unusual.
It's no wonder Magistrate Xu is so exhausted. These cases occurred within two days, and it's terrifying to think about it carefully. It probably took a lot of effort to deal with it.
The first case occurred in the market. It was just a verbal quarrel between two people. Suddenly, an old man came out of the crowd and chopped the two people who were quarreling alive to death with a fish knife, and cut off their heads.
According to what others said, this old man was usually honest and honest, had no bad habits, and rarely even crossed paths with others.
The old man seemed to have lost his soul after being escorted to the Yamen. The reason for killing him was that he felt that the two people spoke too much.
Only half a day after this case occurred, there was another murder case in the Honghua Building next door to the inn where Qin Bai lived.
This time, five Hualou women died. Their throats were cut while they were sleeping by a drunkard who did not know when they came in. When the man was about to cut off his head, he was immediately noticed.
The drunkard who committed the crime kept saying that Honghua Building is a place where filth and evil practices hide, and the situation is the same as that of the old man.
The last case came from a casino. This time, the casino owner killed several people in a row. Although he was stopped quickly, he also cut off the heads.
Counting what Qin Bai met at the Yamen Gate before, there were five murder cases in a row in two days, and they seemed to be related to each other.
Because these cases occurred in relatively low-level areas of Gusu City, few people paid attention to them, so there was no chaos in the city.
But according to the current frequency, two or three incidents can be initiated in a day, and sooner or later there will be chaos.
Wei Lianzhang felt a headache, and he could only say to Qin Bai: "These cases may be related to demons. Qin Bai, can you help?"
At this time, the system prompts sounded, and several achievements popped up at the right time. Qin Bai nodded when he saw this. For him, the demon was the easiest to deal with.
"I will talk to County Magistrate Xu and ask him to cooperate with you as much as possible." Wei Lianzhang breathed a sigh of relief, just as he couldn't take action now.
"Are those murderers in jail?"
"Yes, usually, it takes a few days for the prisoner to be executed at the market entrance." Wei Lianzhang nodded.
"Then I'll go to the prison and take a look tomorrow to make sure there are no traces of magic on those people."
Qin Bai felt that the perpetrator himself was weird, but it was already dark and it was difficult to go to the prison, so he had to wait until tomorrow.
The two were just about to discuss the details when they suddenly heard noises and crying coming from the yamen.
Magistrate Xu directed the government officials to get busy. A dozen torches were lit, illuminating the courtyard.
Seeing this, Qin Bai narrowed his eyes and hurried to the window to take a look. Almost the entire yamen was in action.
"The case is here again?"
"I hope not..."
Wei Lianzhang was just about to go take a look when he was stopped by Zhou Qi. Although he was in the Yamen now, it was difficult for him to come forward.
Qin Bai ran towards the yamen gate before he could say hello. Since he had the opportunity to unlock the achievement, how could he let it go.
