Alien Super Search
Chapter 37 Control
"Pfft!" The sound of the sharp blade entering his body was extremely ear-piercing in the dark night, He Chong's smile froze on his face, and his eyes revealed incomparable fear and doubt.He didn't expect that Lao Qu would attack him suddenly, and he didn't expect that Lao Qu's cultivation was also in the middle rank of martial arts.
"Old Qu, why..." When He Chong opened his mouth, he felt severe pain, and the strength in his whole body began to drain quickly.
"Hey! He Chong, if you can betray Xia Chengzong today, you might betray the Zhang family tomorrow. You know so many secrets, do you think I will keep you!" Blood spurted from his chest, and with a bang, He Chong fell to the ground and died.
After killing He Chong, Lao Qu drew a knife on his left arm, then took out a thin needle, and stabbed himself a few times.Then when he was about to reach out his hands into his arms, a burst of clapping suddenly sounded behind him.Afterwards, faint words came into his ears: "Old Qu, what a good trick!"
Lao Qu's movements froze suddenly, and when he turned his head, he saw a figure slowly walking out of the darkness clapping his hands.
"Xia Zhanhong!" Seeing the slowly approaching figure, Lao Qu's expression changed drastically, and then his eyes were fixed, and his left hand was suddenly stretched into his arms.
However, as soon as Lao Qu made his move, Xia Zhanhong behind him suddenly moved, and a phantom, like a ghost, came to him in the blink of an eye, and stretched out his hand to grab his left arm.
Xia Zhanhong's speed was so fast that Lao Qu didn't even have time to react, and he was grabbed by the joint of his left arm.
His left arm was pinched, and Lao Qu only felt that half of his body was numb for a while. For a moment, his hands and feet seemed to lose his sense, and he no longer had the strength to backhand.
"Zhan Hong, what are you doing? It was He Chong who attacked and killed his colleagues and let the bandits escape. He also injured my left arm!" Old Qu shouted loudly, his tone full of grievances.
"You are an elementary-level martial artist, and you were suddenly attacked by an intermediate-level martial artist. Not only did you kill the opponent, but you only injured your left arm... I really didn't expect that you used the method of piercing acupuncture points to hide your cultivation. No wonder you Never show the mountains or dew the water!" Xia Zhanhong laughed coldly.
Hearing this, Lao Qu knew that Xia Zhanhong had seen everything, and that he must have met the bandits when he came from behind. With his ghostly speed, most of the bandits had already been captured.
Seeing that all the previous plans had come to nothing, Lao Qu fortunately closed his eyes and remained silent.
Seeing Lao Qu's expression at this time, Xia Zhanhong didn't care, and then said with a smile: "You want to use He Chong as a scapegoat, haha, I also want to use your hand to get rid of He Chong!"
Lao Qu opened his eyes and said unwillingly: "At that time you left He Chong, I suspected that you had a purpose, but this time the time was too tight, so I had to contact He Chong...But even if our plan fails this time, Your father will also be dismissed from office, and now midnight has passed!"
Xia Zhanhong still had a smile on his face, and said lightly: "The Zhang family has placed internal agents in the patrol team to collude with the bandits to carry out this big case. I'm afraid the consequences will be more serious than my father's dismissal!"
Old Qu Yin said with a smile: "These things you said are all facts, but do you have any evidence? Why do you say that I let go of the bandits? Is it just based on your own words? The narrow alley is completely dark, even if you are around It's hard to identify me if I have other patrol members... You caught the bandits, the worst result for the Zhang family is that you can't control the patrol team!"
Xia Zhanhong pondered for a moment, then said jokingly: "You really think I have no evidence... Two big brothers, thank you for your hard work, get up!"
As soon as Xia Zhanhong finished speaking, the two patrol members who had just been stabbed across the chest by He Chong slowly got up from the ground, and walked behind Xia Zhanhong with a smile on their face.
"Most of the members of the patrol team are my father's old subordinates. How could I disregard their lives just to catch you...Old Qu, you just said that this place is dark, hehe, you and He Chong didn't find them either There was no bleeding after being stabbed... As for the Zhang family's intermediary, the matter of colluding with the bandits is even easier!" Xia Zhanhong said, reaching into Old Qu's arms, and took out a note.
"After you came out of the teahouse in the morning, Wu Yuan kept pestering you until the evening patrol, and only gave you a chance to read the note. Do you know why... I just want you to keep this piece of evidence Destroy it, with Zhang Wuqiang's own handwriting, how can the Zhang family escape the responsibility!"
When seeing the two patrol members get up, Lao Qu was already stunned, until Xia Zhanhong took out the note from his arms and said the following words, his face was ashen.
At this time, there was a rush of footsteps in front of the narrow alley, and Wu Yuan and Xiao Si rushed over with a large group of patrolmen.
When they came close, the two of them glanced at Lao Qu lightly, and then said to Xia Zhanhong: "Zhanhong, everything has been settled, as soon as the bandit leaves, we will take out all the lost items from that house." , let's go to the Colonel's Mansion!"
Xia Zhanhong smiled and said: "Brothers, please don't worry, but wait a little longer, the head of the Yun family will bring the bandit back in a while, and then we will go together."
Just when Xia Zhanhong had already taken control of everything, Zhang Kechuan had already sent Zhang Ning out of Xiaowei's Mansion.
The captain stood up slowly, and said calmly: "Xia Chengzong was not effective in handling the case, so he was dismissed from the position of patrol captain. The patrol team is temporarily in charge of three small teams, usually only responsible for patrolling the whole city. Let's do it! Alright, let's go!"
After the captain's words fell, the smiles on the faces of Tang Feng and Zhang Kechuan could not be restrained.As for Tang Mingxuan, he took a deep look at Xia Chengzong, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
After the captain finished speaking, he glanced coldly at the audience, then walked towards the back of the hall with his hands behind his back.
At this moment, the sound of fast running footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall door, and in a blink of an eye, a city guard entered the hall.
As soon as the city guard entered the hall, they knelt down on one knee, clasped their fists with both hands, and panted loudly: "Report to Captain Captain, the robbers have attacked again, and the Yun Family Treasure Pavilion has been stolen!"
"What!" Everyone in the living room froze in place, looking extremely shocked. The bandit was so courageous that he even dared to make a move.
Zhang Kechuan stood up suddenly, and shouted angrily: "It's too rampant. It's like treating our Pingshan City as nothing. Hurry up and tell Zhang Ning, let him do his best to track down the bandit, and he must be caught."
Tang Feng also looked angry, but seeing Zhang Kechuan's exaggerated manner, he couldn't help showing a smile in his eyes.
"What did you say?" The lieutenant turned around abruptly, his expression was furious, and his small eyes were shining brightly. What the bandits were doing now was no longer for the goods, it was simply a deliberate provocation.
Xia Chengzong stood aside with his head down, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a cold smile flashed away.
The captain turned around and took two steps back to the main seat, and said to Tang Feng: "Tax officer, didn't you say that the person you are looking for can solve the case quickly, and now the bandits are at it again, what do you say!"
Tang Feng's expression was complete, and he said solemnly: "Although the bandits are rampant, but if he takes action at this time, it is tantamount to seeking his own death."
Zhang Kechuan also bowed and said, "Master Captain, I can assure you that before tonight, Zhang Ning will be able to catch the robbers and recover all the stolen items!"
"Okay! Let me see how Zhang Ning caught the robbers overnight and retrieved the stolen items! If he can solve the case, he will be in charge of the patrol team, but if he can't solve the case... then he will return Xia Chengzong shall be the captain of the patrol team."
Tang Mingxuan frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Master Captain, this matter is inappropriate. Xia Chengzong was dismissed because he failed to solve the case for three days. It has nothing to do with whether Zhang Ning solves the case or not!"
At this time, Xia Chengzong suddenly raised his head, walked to the center of the hall, and said to Tang Feng: "My lord tax official, I think you have miscalculated the time!"
When Xia Chengzong said these words, everyone in the hall was stunned.
"When the captain gave me three days, but in the morning, why did you think it was three days when it was midnight?"
When the captain heard the words, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. Xia Chengzong's words seemed far-fetched, but they were not unreasonable.Everyone's inertial thinking will count midnight as a day.But if you count it carefully, it is indeed less than three days at this time. After all, when the three-day deadline was set, no one made this issue specific.
At this time, not only Tang Feng and Zhang Kechuan were in a daze, but even Tang Mingxuan frowned tightly.
Just when the hall fell silent because of Xia Chengzong's words, a member of the Zhang family hurried in and whispered something in Zhang Kechuan's ear with a look of panic.
"What? Not at all!" Zhang Kechuan yelled loudly, causing buzzing in everyone's ears.
"Old Qu, why..." When He Chong opened his mouth, he felt severe pain, and the strength in his whole body began to drain quickly.
"Hey! He Chong, if you can betray Xia Chengzong today, you might betray the Zhang family tomorrow. You know so many secrets, do you think I will keep you!" Blood spurted from his chest, and with a bang, He Chong fell to the ground and died.
