Touring the Ming Dynasty

Early the next morning, Yang Sen quickly ran into the office and shouted to Duan Fei: "Brother Duan, a woman came to identify the body. The deceased was named Lu Lan, a businessman from the county. Chief Yan asked me to come and ask Do you want to go and have a look?"

Duan Fei's eyes lit up, he turned around and said to Shi Bin and Guo Wei: "Go, let's take a look!"

The four rushed to the mortuary, and saw that Botou Yan was walking out of the mortuary with a middle-aged woman into the yard. The woman wiped her tears with a scarf and said, sobbing, "My husband is dead." It's so miserable...My lord must be the master of my family, catch the murderer as soon as possible to comfort my husband's soul in heaven...Please accept a little tea money, and after the case is closed, my family will prepare a generous gift to thank you all..."

Yan Butou put the red envelope in his arms, and said: "Mrs. Lu, you are polite. In order to solve the case as soon as possible, we have something to ask you. Please forgive me. Does your husband have any enemies? When did he leave home and why? and go?"

Mrs. Lu recalled and replied: "Qi...my husband has always been generous. He has been in business for more than [-] years and has made friends all over the world. I have never heard of any enemies he has. I went home before the [-]th day of the month, but after [-] days, I still disappeared. The slave family sent someone to look for it, and the other party said that the husband had already paid the bill and returned. The slave family has been terrified these days, but they don’t want the nightmare to come true..."

One of the maids who helped Mrs. Lu interjected, "It must be that damned evil slave, Lu Da, who saw money, robbed him of money and murdered him, and then flew away. Otherwise, why did Lu Da disappear when the master was killed?"

"It's not impossible..." Yan Bo took a look at Duan Fei, Duan Fei was about to speak, but someone shouted outside: "Duan Fei! Why are you here?"

Xu Dianshi rushed over angrily, Yan Butou stepped forward to meet him, cupped his hands and answered for Duan Fei: "Master Xu, Master Min ordered me to take Duan Fei, Shi Bin and Guo Wei to investigate the case separately. With such a two-pronged approach, the case can be solved faster, what does Master Xu think?"

Xu Dianshi sneered and said, "Hmph, since it's Master Min's intention, what do I have to say? You guys arrived before me, so you must have already asked something. Why don't you tell me? You won't hide anything from me?"

"Of course not," Duan Fei clasped his fists respectfully to Xu Dianshi and said, "Master Xu, we have just arrived. According to Mrs. Lu, Lu Lan took his servant to collect the bills and was killed on the way back. The servant Lu Lu Da disappeared, the money collected from the account and Lu Lan's valuable rings, jade pendants and other things were all taken away, so everyone suspected that Lu Da did it, but I don't think so, Lu Lan only took Lu Da alone To collect the bills, obviously trust him very much, Lu Da should not do that, first, and second, why didn’t Lu Da rob money and kill people in the wilderness outside the city? Is it more convenient to kill people in the city? Third, According to common sense, murder and robbery are often a mistake, and the crime is often done hastily, and it will never be so complicated, so I don't think Lu Da is the murderer. Of course, we still have to find him. Just see the corpse."

Captain Yan kept blinking at Duan Fei, but Duan Fei finished his sentence as if he hadn't seen it. Xu Dianshi hummed in satisfaction and said, "It seems that it is exactly as you said, and the suspicion of Lu Da can be ruled out. , but you still have to find him, arrest the head strictly, get someone to post a notice, and draft a document to inform the Ministry of Punishment, and go to sea to capture the official documents. Be sure to find Lu Da as soon as possible. Since you want to investigate the case separately, then go , I still have something to ask Mrs. Lu for confirmation, so I won’t send you off.”

Yan Butou said goodbye to Duan Fei and the others with a dark face. Before Yan Butou said anything, Duan Fei laughed first, and said in a low voice: "Yan Butou don't need to be angry. I'm just setting up a trick. Do you think Mr. Xu Will you believe my words? I'm afraid he has already decided that Lu Da is the murderer by now."

Yan Butou looked better, and he said in surprise, "Why did you say that?"

Duan Fei smiled and said: "At this time, whatever I say, Mr. Xu will think that I am lying to him. Even if he doesn't think so, in order to show his brilliance, he will listen to my words in reverse. Look, he will definitely try his best to go Catch Lu Da, that's fine, Lu Da must be found, Master Xu won't do it after he has something to do, and come to trouble us for nothing."

Guo Wei chuckled, and Shi Bin asked, "Brother Fei, what should we do now? Yesterday Master Xu interrogated **** all day and they didn't find anything. Now you say that Lu Da is not the murderer, and Mrs. Lu is not the murderer." We were snatched by Dianshi to ask, what else can we do now?"

Duan Fei said decisively: "We need to start from two aspects. I will go back to the scene with Guo Wei to see if there are any clues that have been missed. Shi Bin, you can ask Jiang Chang to go back to his old nest to have a look, and then go to interrogate Lu Lan with Yan Butou. How can a businessman have no enemies? Mrs. Lu’s words may not be completely believed, maybe she doesn’t even know it herself. The key point is to check whether there have been any suspicious behaviors recently, sudden riches or Those who leave inexplicably and no one knows where they are going.”

Yan Bu nodded and said: "That's the way to do it. By the way, A Fei, Lu Lan lives in the west of the city. Why did the corpse appear in the Earth Temple in the east of the city? You just moved out of the Earth Temple, and someone hid the corpse in it. Would it be related?"

Duan Fei said: "This is also a question that Guo Wei and I are going to investigate and verify."

Duan Fei, Guo Wei, Yan Tutou, and Shi Bin split up. On the way to the Earth Temple, Guo Wei asked, "A Fei, why didn't you go with Shi Bin? I saw that Shi Bin was a little unhappy just now."

Duan Fei hummed, and explained: "I deliberately asked him to follow Yan Butou. This kid is too young, so I should learn from Yan Butou. The reason why I didn't bring him here is because he is too familiar with this place. I'm familiar with it, but his observation ability is insufficient, and he often misses some clues when he is preconceived. Your experience is much older than his, and you may be able to discover something."

Guo Wei suddenly let out a sigh, and said nothing, the two returned to the Earth Temple, observed carefully, and after checking the Earth Temple for a long time, there were still no clues, both of them couldn't help being a little disappointed, after looking at each other, Duan Fei pondered Said: "This place is too clean, either the murderer was very careful, or he returned to this place to clean up all the traces afterwards, let's look elsewhere."

Guo Wei sighed, and the two turned their heads to walk towards him. There were already people watching outside the Earth Temple. Duan Fei's sharp eyes suddenly saw a familiar figure, and he shouted at that person with a thought: "Black monkey, Come here!"

The person who hid behind others came out with a smirk, and said with a chuckle: "Brother Fei, you are looking for me."

Duan Fei shouted: "Why are you hiding from me?"

The little bastard nicknamed Black Monkey was thin and dark-skinned, and he really lived up to his name. He came to Duan Fei with a smile, scratched his head and said with a smile: "I didn't hide or hide, I just got used to it... Who is it?" Brother Fei, are you a poor man now?"

Only then did Duan Fei feel relieved, and said again: "Why are you wandering around here? Could it be someone's purse that you fancy?"

The black monkey's eyes flickered and said: "Brother Fei, look at what you said, I just came out, and I saw people watching here, so I just came over curiously."

Duan Fei said: "Curiosity is still so strong, didn't Master Xu smash your ass yesterday? Go back, be honest with me, don't cause trouble, you know?"

The black monkey agreed: "Yes, Brother Fei, I'll tell everyone later... Brother Fei, can you..."

The black monkey looked hesitant, and kept looking at Guo Wei. Duan Fei nodded at Guo Wei, and Guo Wei walked away as if nothing had happened, and shouted at the onlookers: "What are you looking at? Nothing to do? Come here soon. Did you see anything strange during the day?"

The onlookers scattered away, and the black monkey winked and whispered to Duan Fei: "Brother Fei, what I told you last time..."
