Demon detective

Chapter 196 Booty
In the dark secret room, with the sound of the iron door, the cell leader Zhang Lin was brought in by Sima Xin himself.

The many days of detention and interrogation have made Zhang Lin look very embarrassed, and even his needle-like beard has become sluggish.

However, when Zhang Lin entered the room and saw someone lying on the hospital bed, he was shocked!
"Ah? Why...how did this happen?" Zhang Lin's eyes widened in astonishment, "Isn't this Fang Wubing? He...how could he be here? Eh?"

It was only at this moment that he saw Xu Zhen on the other side of the room, but he saw Xu Zhen's brows were furrowed and his face was solemn.

"Xu Zhen," he hurriedly pointed at Fang Wubing and asked, "What's going on? Why is he here, how...how did he become like this?"

It turned out that Fang Wubing was still alive.

Before, Xu Zhen just told the truth to deceive Lianji, and let the old genius doctor secretly give Fang Wubing an injection, creating the illusion that Fang Wubing had died.

"Uncle," Xu Zhen said, stepping forward, "Fang Wubing confessed before he passed out that you are his accomplice, and the five boxes of things are in your hands!"

"What... what?" Zhang Lin trembled in fright, and asked tremblingly, "Are you kidding me? Five boxes of things? What are you talking about?"

"He chose to be caught by the government and imprisoned in this county prison because of you as the head of the prison." Xu Zhen said, "You are not a member of the system, but you are worthy of Fang Wubing's entrustment. The only thing that matters is you Only in a prison that can be controlled can his personal safety be ensured."

"This...what's wrong with this?" Zhang Lin shook his head repeatedly.

"When the incident happened suddenly, you were the one who helped him dispose of those five boxes of goods," Xu Zhen asked, "Now tell me quickly, where did you hide those things?"

"What, I... I don't know!" Zhang Lin still shook his head.

"Uncle," Xu Zhen grabbed Zhang Lin's shoulder and shook vigorously, and said excitedly, "it will be too late if you don't tell the truth at this point! Don't worry, Dongfang Shenchao and Master Sima are their own people, and they have already agreed Me, as long as you are willing to speak out, they can forgive me.

"Uncle," Xu Zhen was about to burst into tears, "Think about my aunt and cousin! You don't want them to be implicated, do you?"

"I..." Zhang Lin turned his head and glanced at Fang Wubing who was on the hospital bed.

However, his desperation made Dongfang Meiyan and Sima Xin very excited. Obviously, Fang Wubing's accomplice is this prison boss Zhang Lin!
"He..." Zhang Lin hesitated with great difficulty, "Xu Zhen, Fang Wubing...really...really..."

"En." Xu Zhen nodded affirmatively, which means that Fang Wubing really confessed you!
"Alas," Zhang Lin sighed deeply, then looked at Dongfang Meiyan and Sima Xin, and said helplessly, "My lords must protect me well! I... I did that not only for my friends , also... also to relieve the worries of the royal family..."

"Oh?"

This sentence obviously shows that Zhang Lin has admitted that Dongfang Meiyan and Sima Xin are even more excited.

"No problem," Dongfang Meiyan first agreed, "The God Detective can directly face the saint. If you can prove that Fang Wubing is the late emperor's secret agent, then the royal family will naturally protect you."

"That's right," Sima Xin agreed, "In that case, not only will you be innocent, but you will be meritorious!"

"Okay, since that's the case, let me say, let me say..." Zhang Lin calmed down, and then said, "Actually...we are just friends, pure friends.

"Although Wubing and I haven't been together for a long time, we have met each other lately, and we have a very close friendship. I know...he is not a gangster, but a court spy with a difficult mission. He does big things.

"Six years ago..." Zhang Lin raised his head and said as if recalling, "He entrusted me to do one thing for him, that is... to help him hide those five boxes of things. But I didn't expect that after the things were hidden, But in order to lure the enemy out, he gave up on running away and was about to be imprisoned in the county government prison. I... um... imprisoned here may also need me..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Dongfang Meiyan interrupted impatiently, "Tell me, where is the thing hidden?"

"Hmm...the Ten Mile Pavilion in the south of the city," Zhang Lin replied, "it's just under the pavilion!"

"What!?" Dongfang Meiyan raised her voice in surprise, "Impossible, how can you hide things under the pavilion? Are the things in the box not afraid of getting wet?"

"Hiding things is planned in advance," Zhang Lin said, "We have already dug out the bottom of the pavilion, and we hid the five boxes together. Only Fang Wubing and I know. I can't care about that much anymore!"

"What? Hollow out?" Dongfang Meiyan raised her voice again.

"Inside the box..." Xu Zhen also asked excitedly, "What's in it?"

"I don't know," Zhang Lin replied, "If I'm not sick, I won't be allowed to see it. The less I know, the better."

"Don't know?" Sima Xin expressed doubts, "Really don't know?"

Zhang Lin shook his head.

"Okay," Dongfang Meiyan quickly waved her hand, "We'll find out what's in there soon!"

……

An hour later, the Shili Pavilion in the south of the city was under full martial law.

Sima Xin and his most trusted subordinates are digging the gazebo hard.

Xu Zhen, Dongfang Meiyan, and Zhang Lin stood aside, all watching the progress of the excavation intently.

The soil is loose, obviously there is indeed a problem below.

Sure enough, after digging for a short time, they dug the pit that Zhang Lin mentioned. There are stone slabs in the pit to build partitions, like a tomb, which can stop the erosion of rainwater.

And the five large rectangular wooden boxes were stacked intact in the pit.

Seeing the container appear, Xu Zhen and the others couldn't hide their excitement.

Sima Xin was about to order his subordinates to open the box, but Dongfang Meiyan stopped him in time, and then whispered something to Sima Xin.

Sima Xin nodded again and again, and then stopped the desire to open the box on the spot, and asked his subordinates to carefully take out the container, and then secretly sent it to the government office.

Through the state of people lifting the container, it can be seen that there are abnormally heavy goods in the container.

Finally, after a lot of twists and turns, the five sets of containers were carried to the government office of Songzhou, and put directly into Sima Xin's study.

Boom!

With the door closed, everything was quiet.

But to the surprise of no one, the peace lasted for two days and two nights! ! !
It was not until the morning of the third day that the door of the study was opened again.

"Alas..." Sima Xin's sigh was the first to come out, "Okay, then I'll tell my subordinates now to let them all withdraw!"

"Xu...Xu Zhenna," came Zhang Lin's voice next, "Did the plan fail? Then what should I do? Can you let me go?"

However, there was no answer from Xu Zhen in the house.

At this time, a person fluttered down from the beams outside the house, and it turned out to be Dongfang Meiyan from the God Detective Division!
No one knows when she went outside.

As soon as Dongfang Meiyan entered the study, she couldn't help complaining: "What? It's only been two days and two nights, so it's time to withdraw? Why don't you keep monitoring for a few more days?"

"The God of the East, it's useless," Sima Xin said helplessly, "If someone really cared about these five boxes, they definitely wouldn't wait so long..."

It turned out that all of this was a plan made by Xu Zhen.

Zhang Lin's confession was false.

Those five boxes were all fake, Xu Zhen had arranged for Meng Zhixiao and Jia Ding to be buried under the Shili Pavilion early in the morning.

The reason why he designed such a plan was naturally to lure the snake out of the hole.

Once those people hiding in the dark got the news, they would rush into the government office recklessly and snatch the five boxes.

And Sima Xin and Dongfang Meiyan have already laid a net in the government office, just waiting for them to take the bait.

However, after two days and two nights, their plan obviously failed!
"Xu Zhen," Dongfang Meiyan came to Xu Zhen and continued to complain, "You have to take the main responsibility for this matter, and we wasted two days of time. In the end, we did a useless effort!"

However, after complaining, Dongfang Meiyan found that Xu Zhen didn't have any look of disappointment on her face, but instead had a kind of sinister light in her eyes.

"you……"

"No, we haven't wasted these two days at all," Xu Zhen said without a word, "No one came to snatch the container, but it just shows a problem!"

"What's the question?" Dongfang Meiyan and Sima Xin asked at the same time.

"Oh..." Zhang Lin was the first to react unexpectedly, and said, "This shows that they know we are acting! Knowing that we are all fake, naturally they won't be fooled!"

"Ah?" Sima Xin's face changed greatly, "So, there are spies among us?"

"No," Xu Zhen said decisively, "I already know what the problem is, someone still lied to us! Hurry up! Let's go to the demon building immediately!!!"
