Chapter 23

"Name A's body was stabbed thirteen times, with two fatal wounds, one in the heart and the other in the throat. Except for the throat, almost all the wounds were stabbed directly through the quilt..."

"The body of Zizi B was stabbed seventeen times, one knife was in the throat, and the rest were stabbed through the quilt, but none were aimed at the heart, so the first knife should be the knife in the throat..."

A middle-aged black ribbon was talking, and suddenly stopped his original business-like tone and became much more direct.

"Both of them came up and aimed their swords at the vitals, and then they couldn't avoid making up the swords. They were aimed at killing people, and their weapons were also this embroidered machete... Actually, there is nothing to say."

"Who says it's not?" An older man with a red ribbon and a small crown looked up at the writing on the wall in front of him, and sighed with emotion. "What do you think of this?"

"While saying that he didn't want to leave his name, he signed it again. It is obviously a pseudonym. Even if there is such a Li Taibai, he is probably an unknown person, but since he wrote it, it is also a clue." The middle-aged Hei Shou sighed slightly. "Also, there are a few difficult-to-write characters that are obviously simplified. Either they are used to the simplified fonts of some remote places, or they don't have much literacy... As for writing in mid-air, the first reaction is naturally the truth of longevity. gas."

"It is indeed the true energy of longevity."

The elder Zhu Shou looked at these few lines and shook his head, as if he wanted to deny something, but what he said was in agreement with his subordinate. "This person...or at least one of his accomplices...should have climbed up from the skylight, plus he had to climb over the wall of the square, and these few lines of words in the sky are too similar to the true energy of longevity."

"Partner?" The middle-aged Hei Ribbon was puzzled for a moment. "It's a knife."

"Standard embroidered knife." Elder Zhu Shou pointed back at the corpse and said. "If it's done by one person, I can't figure it out. How could he fatally injure two people at the same time? Or is it that the general flag and one of his wives were stabbed and managed to hold back without struggling or shouting? Why? No struggle, no shouting? Especially since the general flag still has his hands in front of his mouth, and his wife is still coughing up blood, which is obviously a reaction after being stabbed."

"Indeed." The middle-aged Hei Shou nodded. "It's not a one-shot shock, and it is said that Feng Zongqi cultivates the true qi of muddy water, which does have a magical effect on life-saving. This way, he can also face... the possibility of his accomplices is even greater. Going to kill Feng Zongqi alone , the other person killed Mrs. Feng or restrained her... But it's hard to say, after all, only one knife was found."

"It's hard to say anything now." The elder Zhu Shou said indifferently. "One thing is one thing, all aspects need to be investigated... Li Taibai, the hero of Zhongzhou who doesn't want to be named, needs to pay attention to Changsheng Zhenqi. At the same time, we need to investigate the grievances and relationships between the Zongqi couple and ask Mr. Feng clearly. Qi's whereabouts yesterday, asking the maid what happened last night, this embroidered machete also has to pinch its nose to check, starting with his subordinates..."

"This is inevitable." The middle-aged black ribbon nodded heavily. "Let's not say that this person is about to be transferred to our Zhongzhen Fusi to be the black ribbon, just say that at the foot of the emperor and on the bank of the Luo River, a seventh-rank general banner of the Dongzhen Fusi, just like this couple died at home together, no matter what You have to give an explanation to the one above.”

"Okay." The elder Zhu Shou stroked his beard again. "At the publishing station, ask them to send more people to investigate Li Taibai, Feng Zongqi's recent handling of files, and yesterday's whereabouts... Then you ask the servants, and I will ask these street cleaners."

The middle-aged black ribbon nodded.

And the elder Zhu Shou had already walked out with his long beard twirling under his chin, and before leaving the door, he still murmured to himself:

"Killing a person in ten steps will never stop you from traveling a thousand miles.

After the matter, brush off the clothes and hide your body and name deeply... Why do these cultural figures want to kill a general banner, and also kill women and children?Could it be copied? "

The middle-aged Hei Shou was stunned for a moment, and finally understood why the other party shook his head before. These two catchphrases are of literary value?What do you think is literary value, you have to use this to test yourself as an old criminal name?
Do you know what a fart?

"Zhang Xing, it's your turn."

An hour later, in the lobby of the restaurant downstairs, Zhang Xing, who was called by his name, did not say a word as a patrolman in Jinyi from Zhongzhen Fusi called out, just imitating the others before him, holding himself in both hands Saber walked upstairs, towards the familiar large room on the second floor.

The door of the room was opened, and Zhang Xing entered directly, only to see an elderly man who looked like a teacher sitting there, with a very gentle expression.

A slightly worn-out warrior crown and an ordinary saber were also casually placed aside.

However, if anyone despises this person just because of his appearance, it will be a big joke... Zhang Xing will not be like this, he saw the red ribbon on the waist of the other party, which is the same as Bai Yousi, Even this man's sword, like Bai Yousi's, bears the symbol of one day and two moons.

"Pull out the knife and show it to me." The elder Zhu Shou slightly raised his hand to signal.

Zhang Xing didn't dare to be negligent, he quickly pulled out the saber, then held it upside down and handed it up.

"Take it away." Zhu Shou just glanced at it, then ordered casually, and then continued to look down at the document in his hand. "sit down."

Zhang Xing immediately followed his words.

"Is it a new knife?" Zhu Shou, the elder, turned over the documents without looking up.

"This subordinate is a newcomer." Zhang Xing replied sincerely.

"Have you killed someone with a knife recently?"

"It was the last time the Herring Gang was suppressed... under the command of the headquarter, anyone who did not perform any meritorious service must be killed." Zhang Xingyi said. "But before that, when my subordinate was patrolling the streets, he chopped off the hand of a rogue in a prostitute shop with a knife."

The elder Zhu Shou frowned slightly, but didn't say anything, just continued to lower his head and asked: "The previous few people said that your family's general flag praised you, saying that you like reading?"

"The place of interest."

"What books have you read?"

"I just finished reading "Tenglong Sihaizhi", and I am reading "Baidi Chunqiu"..."

"You're so young, why do you read some famous novels and those official history books?" Zhu Shou, the elder, frowned again. "Forget it...there is water next to it, dip it in and write a few words with both hands."

Zhang Xing's heart jumped, his face remained unchanged, he quickly reached out to dip his hand in the water, and carefully wrote the five characters of "Tenglong Sihaizhi" on the table, then changed hands, trying hard and slowly to write "Baidi" neatly. "Spring and Autumn" four characters.

Just after writing two strokes, his heart moved slightly, and he immediately sent out the cold qi to his fingertips, but he instantly froze the water on his fingers, then stopped in embarrassment, and then looked at Zhu Shou in front of him in embarrassment:

"Looking at Shangguan, I couldn't hold the strength in my left hand, so I couldn't help using my true energy. I'll write it again."

"No need." Elder Zhu Shou looked at the cold air on the opponent's fingertips, shook his head on the spot, but simply closed the file and asked another matter seriously. "I just want to ask you, your file is too new, it doesn't match at all... What's going on?"

Zhang Xing was silent for a moment, and chose to tell the truth.

"Are you the person assigned by the inspector Bai?" The elder Zhu Shou twisted his beard on the spot, and finally there was a slight change in expression on his face. "I see."

"I don't know what Shangguan means by 'arrangement'." Zhang Xing considered his words. "But Bai Xunjian didn't ask me to deliberately pay attention to some things, and I didn't make a report myself, but I was just serious about being the patrol captain."

"I understand, I understand." The elder Zhu Shou said indifferently, and at the same time seemed to have lost interest in further investigation, and just returned to the routine inquiry of the case itself. "By the way, what level is your ice true energy cultivated to?"

"I just passed the fifth of the twelve main channels last night." As Zhang Xing answered, he stretched out his fist again to channel the cold ice true energy onto his arm.

"It turns out that my mind is on this." The elder Zhu Shou immediately nodded. "One last question...I won't ask where you were last night...I'll just ask you, what can you tell me about the death of your family's general flag?"

"The matter must have something to do with the Herring Gang." Zhang Xing paused for a while, and gave a natural answer. "Otherwise, it would be a coincidence, that would be dozens of lives, and so much property involved..."

"Indeed, everyone says that..." the elder Zhu Shou replied with a sigh. "That's it, go back first, don't leave the residence if you have nothing to do, come here every morning for the past few days."

"Yes." Zhang Xing stood up, carefully put away his saber, and turned to leave.

However, just as he walked to the door, he stopped abruptly, and then turned around.

"What?" Zhu Shou, the elder, narrowed his eyes slightly.

"There is one thing...it doesn't matter at first, but if I don't say it, I'm afraid that Shangguan will ask others later, and it will be embarrassing." Zhang Xing answered seriously. "I begged my sister-in-law for the handmaiden Xiaoyu yesterday. At that time, my sister-in-law only asked my elder brother to reply to me today... Many people were present for this matter."

"Oh." The elder Zhu Shou was taken aback for a moment. "I see."

Zhang Xing hurriedly cupped his hands and left.

That day, people were in a state of panic, and the patrolmen in Jinyi searched around, and rumors kept going everywhere.It was only in the afternoon, when Zhang Xing, who had ventured through the customs, returned to his residence, Fangzhu Liu really had something to say:
"Xiao Zhang, your friend who is patrolling in brocade clothes is here again, and he is in the wing."

Zhang Xing immediately thanked him, but he didn't know if it was an illusion, he always felt that Master Liu had a weird expression...but in this case, it seemed even more wrong that his expression was not weird.

Say goodbye to Brother Liu and come to see Qin Bao. The two of them still sat in the courtyard as usual.

"Did you come to see me after hearing about my family's Zongqi case?" Zhang Xing spoke calmly.

"Naturally." Qin Bao seemed conflicted, as if he wanted to ask but dared not. "What do you say about the case? It has been spread all over Taichung, and Zhong Cheng knows about it. It is only said that Li Taibai, the hero of Zhongzhou, did it... and hurt women and children?"

"What women and children? Our Mrs. Feng Zongqi is the one who really makes up his mind." Zhang Xing said casually. "I don't know more about the specifics of the case than you do, but I've been asked not to stay away without authorization, and I'm on call every day."

Qin Bao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the first half of the sentence, then nodded again and again without asking any more questions.

Only the two had just met, and it would be awkward to separate directly at this time, so they wentssip about some practice, and Qin Erlang did not leave until the copper bowl in Jingjie was raised again.

After the other party left, Zhang Xing also went to have dinner, and when he returned to the courtyard, he couldn't help but feel empty.I just suddenly remembered that Zhu Shou in Bai Ri seemed to dislike the history books he read that mentioned ancient times, and instead admired novels, so he simply took the wooden box that Qin Bao had sent before, and prepared to read this for a while. The famous books of the world.

However, when the wooden box was opened, there were seven or eight books in it, which turned out to be just a whole set of books, and the title of the first book was even more terrifying——"The Legend of the Female Protagonist Li Yue, Part [-]: You Long Sees the Phoenix".

In a trance, Zhang Xing had great worries about Bai Yousi, Qin Bao, and even the literary accomplishment of this whole world.

PS: First of all, I would like to thank the leader for catching a classmate Jiang Qiu alone, I am very grateful.

Then the public chapter is not afraid of stealing the word count. In the last chapter, I will say a few more words.

1. Bai Yousi has never seen Zhang Xing write simplified characters, I really have never written like this.

2. The protagonist wipes the knife with a bloody quilt, which is to cover the traces... A few people mentioned fingerprints. The problem is that they are not wiped with a clean cloth, which is easy to leave obvious fingerprints. This is a bloody quilt... itself It is to cover up the traces... But generally speaking, my writing is not rigorous, and it is not the same as the above one, so I will make a slight correction.
