227 Case analysis (1)
The government?
“So what if you’re a magistrate? I even dared to kill people in front of the Ministry of Justice’s Yamen. Is it that hard to kill a mere rank-7 like you?”
Xu Qi ‘an pressed his hand down, and the sharp black-gold long knife instantly cut the back of the experienced man’s neck. The latter clearly felt the pain from the back of his neck, and warm blood flowed out.
You really dare to kill me ... The local governor’s heart tightened. He looked at the other night watchmen in panic, hoping that they could stop this lawless companion.
However, the attitude of song tingfeng and the others made the manager’s heart sink. He was calm, indifferent, and stood by. He had long heard of the bad reputation of the night watchman, who was particularly arrogant, but he did not believe that the night watchman would dare to kill an official of the Imperial court in the Yamen.
Song tingfeng met his eyes and smiled. Mr. Manager, you’ve encroached on the inheritance of an official of the court. Even if I don’t kill you now, I’ll still have ways to kill you when you’re in prison.
this is the usual method of us night watchmen, ” Tang yinluo added. when the time comes, it won’t be as simple as the inheritance.
“I ... I know I was wrong.” The manager swallowed his saliva and accepted his fate with a pale face.
Xu Qi ‘an put away his knife and kicked the manager. “Go, call all the people who have received the silver to the hall. I want to question them one by one.”
The official clutched the back of his neck, which was bleeding profusely, and staggered away.
Xu Qi ‘an looked away and continued to check his belongings until he was out of sight.
“You’re afraid that the relics with clues will be taken, causing the case to be closed?” Tang yinluo said.
if Zhou qu really left clues in the relics, then he would not choose those valuable items that could easily arouse people’s greed. Xu Qi ‘an looked up at him.
“I just want to take back what belongs to Zhou Jing. When the case is over, I’ll hand it over to his family.”
“Your character is worthy of my admiration.” Tang yinluo praised, and then added,”Although you are very lecherous.”
No, this was the most basic moral ... A guy who doesn’t even let go of the dead’s money is a rotten person, trash. Xu Qian ridiculed in his heart.
In addition, could a man’s matter be called lecherous? It was clearly a Fair Lady that a gentleman wanted.
Xu Qi ‘an recalled a joke he had seen before.Although I drink, smoke, get tattoos, and go to nightclubs, I know I’m a good girl.
‘Although I’m white silk, white silk, and white silk, I know I’m a good man ...’
About ten minutes later, an official in a green robe with embroidered white silk walked into the warehouse, followed by an officer who had simply bandaged the wound on his neck, and an official who was also wearing a green robe with embroidered egrets.
In the officialdom, one could guess the rank of the other party just by looking at the official’s uniform. For example, this green-robed official with the White silk was of the sixth rank, and only the prefect in the government office was of the sixth rank.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe saying “only clothes are recognized, not people” was originally spread from the officialdom.
A plump middle-aged magistrate with a round face welcomed them warmly. When he got close to Xu Qi ‘an and the others, he said bitterly, ”
“I am ashamed. I was not strict enough to let them do such a shameful thing.”
He reflected on himself and took out a heavy little bag. here’s 150 taels of silver. It’s what manager Zhou left behind. I’ve already recovered it for him.
There was no need to use the Qi observation skill for such a small matter. The fact that the state capital could make such a concession was all because of the provincial governor. Xu Qi ‘an had anticipated this, so he was not afraid.
If the magistrate did not buy it, he could complain to provincial governor Zhang. Of course, the possibility of such a thing happening was not high. He believed that the magistrate of a state had the intelligence to do so.
So, Xu Qi ‘an reached out to take it, weighed it in her hand, and didn’t pester her.
“Lord magistrate, please help me prepare the carriage. I’m going to take the items left behind by experienced Zhou back to the relay station.” Xu Qi ‘an said.
The magistrate first looked at the one with the silver Gong embroidered on his chest. Seeing that this person was silent, he knew in his heart that the copper Gong that he was talking to was the leader of the group.
“Definitely, definitely.”
Xu Qi ‘an left behind two Tiger guards to work with the bailiffs from the government office to transport Zhou Qu’s belongings back to the relay station. They rode out of the city. Accompanying him was also a fast-track bounty hunter from the government.
Also known as fast hands.
Zhou Qu’s body was buried in a mass grave 30 miles outside the city. The mass grave of this era was more like a Cemetery from his previous life, with graves one after another.
The people buried in the mass grave were the dead of poor families. Those who were well-off would ask a Feng Shui Master to choose the location of their grave.
“Milords, manager Zhou’s grave is over there,” He quickly pointed at a willow tree. There was a small grave under the willow tree.
A few of the Tiger guards took down the shovels from the horse hooks and dug up the grave one after another. Dirt flew everywhere, and with a muffled ” Dong ” sound, the shovel hit the coffin.
The guards of the Tiger Troop wiped the dirt off the coffin. The thin coffin was pried open, and an unpleasant stench gushed out.
Everyone took a few steps back. Martial artists had a keen sense of smell and could not stand the stench.
Xu Qi ‘an took out a porcelain bottle and distributed the small pills inside to everyone. These were the anti-virus pills given by the Directorate of Celestials.
Then, he covered his mouth and nose and walked to the coffin.
A male corpse in white was lying there quietly, his ashen face facing the sky.
His skin was greenish-black and covered with livor mortis of different shades. There were a few rotting holes on his face, and maggots were wriggling in them.
His body was slightly swollen. This was a swelling phenomenon caused by the skin tissue being filled with rotting gas after death. At this time, the skin would break with a light poke, and stinky blood would spray out.
Xu Qi ‘an had learned this knowledge before, but this was the first time he had seen it.
.... Oh my God, I’m going to crack. Xu Qi ‘an forced down the churning stomach acid and said in a deep voice, “”Take off his clothes.”
. Yes .... The Tiger guard looked at him in resignation.
Half an hour later, Xu Qi ‘an examined the body. He concluded that the death was not caused by external forces. He didn’t find any fatal wounds on the body.
After re-burying Zhou Qu’s grave, the officials of the magistrate’s office led them to a nearby stream to wash up, and then they returned to White Emperor City.
The cause of death could almost be confirmed to be the work of the witchcraft cult ... Killing people in their dreams, a method of a rank four wizard ... Then wouldn’t it be easy for him to kill us?
The only clue at the moment was the half of the jade pendant. However, if it was just the jade pendant and there was no more information, there was no way to investigate ...
Returning to the relay station at 2:30 in the afternoon, provincial governor Zhang brought a group of copper and silver gongs and rummaged through Zhou Qu’s relics, looking for clues.
“I’ve been looking for two hours. Have you found anything?” Governor Zhang frowned.
...
The night watchmen shook their heads.
“Isn’t Zhou Fu the night watchman’s Secret agent? don’t you have a secret code to contact the night watchman?” Governor Zhang asked sternly.
“It doesn’t match at all.” A silver Gong said in a muffled voice.
“Could it have been taken away or destroyed by the murderer? All that’s left for us are some useless trash.” Another silver Gong guessed.
“It’s been half a month. There shouldn’t be any clues left, right? No one can break it. ” A copper Gong muttered.
Trash ... Governor Zhang felt a little irritated. He was an imperial censor and was not familiar with criminal cases. He could only rely on this group of night watchmen. However, night watchmen were good at fighting, but they were not good at investigating cases.
“Let the Warlock question yang Chuannan.”
“Rotten idea!” Governor Zhang snorted,”the accusations of warlocks are not accurate for those above the fourth rank.” I know that yang Chuannan is colluding with the mountain bandits, but where is the evidence? How are we going to punish him without evidence? how are we going to punish a rank-2 commander?”
The night watchmen sighed and shook their heads.
“That’s enough. Governor, please don’t make things difficult for them. Zhou qu really didn’t use any secret code.” Jiang Luzhong shook his head, feeling that this was a thorny problem.
They had thought that Zhou Fu would use a secret code unique to the night watchman as a contact clue to guide them to find evidence, but after checking the relics, they found nothing.
...
“It could also have been destroyed by the murderer.” Governor Zhang said helplessly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Then what do we do?” A silver Gong asked.
“We can only count on Xu ningyan.” “If he can find a flaw in the silver Tax case in the dossiers, and can investigate the old case of Princess Pingyang in the Sang Bo case, it’s not impossible for him to investigate the headless case of Zhou qu this time,” Governor Zhang said.
“But how do we investigate?”
“How would I know?” Governor Zhang glared at the copper Gong that spoke.
Just then, Xu Qi ‘an walked in, followed by the night watchman and the Tiger guards.
“What are the results of the autopsy?” Governor Zhang’s eyes lit up.
“It’ll be the same as the investigation by the government office, so there won’t be any more discoveries on the body.” Xu Qi ‘an replied.
The governor nodded his head in disappointment and said, “”I heard that you had the experience of hurting the Deputy prefect?”
“I know what I’m doing. I won’t kill anyone.” “Any clues?” Xu Qi ‘an pointed at the items.
The group of night watchmen shook their heads.
I didn’t find the contact Code. Maybe it was destroyed. “Ningyan, I can only rely on you.” Jiang Luzhong sighed.
He then looked around and said in a low voice, ” all of you, learn from him and see how he solves the case. Whoever can learn ten or twenty percent of it, I’ll focus on training them.
These gongs were all under his command.
Jiang Luzhong had always wanted Xu Qi ‘an, but Lord Wei refused to let him. He had no choice but to let Xu Qi’ an train the night watchmen under him.
Xu Qi ‘an found a seat and sat down. He didn’t continue to check the relics. After a moment of thought, he said,”It’s the secret code of the Yamen. Is it a secret?”
yes, ” Jiang Luzhong said. I know everything above silver Gong. I also know copper Gong, who has been in contact with spies.
“Then it’s not confidential enough.” Xu Qi ‘an poured himself a glass of water and said, ”
“It’s highly possible that Zhou qu didn’t use the Yamen’s Secret code.”
“How do you know?” A silver Gong asked.
Xu Qi ‘an analyzed,”if the secret code was highly confidential, the murderer wouldn’t have been able to find the clues and destroy them.” We should have found the secret code by now. But he didn’t.
“If the level of confidentiality wasn’t high, Zhou gan, as a spy for twenty years, would not have used such a crude method. It was too easy to crack. So, this matter is actually not complicated. There is only one answer, and that is he used other methods to hide the evidence.”
The night watchmen looked at each other in silence. They were all shocked.
“Yes, it’s like this. At first glance, there seemed to be no clue, but there was only one possibility:Zhou Jing used other methods to hide the evidence.”
The night watchmen clapped their hands excitedly, feeling as if everything had suddenly become clear.
Governor Zhang nodded slightly, then frowned, however, we were also confused about how to find the evidence that he had hidden.
“Let’s analyze it from the beginning.. Xu Qi. an said.
