After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 404: Apprehended and brought to justice

The man in gray robe looked like he had already made arrangements, and said: "Don't worry, there is someone at the entrance of the alley to warn you. If he sees anything wrong, he will come in and report the news immediately. But you, you are now promising, and the imperial officials can kill you if they want." I’m not afraid of people finding me here. If I were you, I would definitely go out of Beijing to avoid the limelight.”

Wu Wulang sneered and said: "With those stupid officials in the capital, how could they have the ability to find me? Now that you are employing people, how can I leave you unavailable for my own safety?"

When the man in gray robe heard this, he didn't know for a moment whether he should lament whether Wu Wulang thought highly of himself, or whether he thought too highly of his own master, to the point of abandoning himself.

Wu Wulang didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he took out his two swords on the spot and waved them wildly in the yard. When he was in a bad mood, he liked to practice swordsmanship.

The man in gray robe looked at him with admiration. Although this man was short in stature and was lame in one leg, it did not affect his transformation into the good martial arts he is now.

The man in gray robe picked up a long gun from the weapon rack behind him and started fighting him directly.

"Wu Lang, you just want to let me see how much you have improved during this period!"

They were fighting wildly in the yard, but they didn't know that the person outside the yard who was sent to look out suddenly felt a tight stomach. He wanted to go back to the house to change people, but the rhythm in his stomach kept beating, and he probably died before he even reached the door. About to fall thousands of miles away, he held his belly and looked around. He saw a collapsed courtyard wall no more than two meters away. Behind the courtyard wall was an abandoned house. Without any hesitation, he rushed in and looked for it. He squatted down in a corner.

Gu Mingda and his group saw that the closer they got to the house, the lighter their steps became.

Niu Niu suddenly smelled a smell, followed the smell and looked over. Her gaze passed through the dilapidated courtyard wall and met a pair of confused eyes.

"Is someone pooping there?" Niuniu asked.

Gu Mingda immediately said: "Control this person first, don't let him shout!"

Gu Mingda didn't know that this person came out to look out, but he was afraid that the ordinary people in the alley would make a fuss when they saw so many people.

Immediately two officials rushed in.

Gu Mingda wanted to comfort this man with a few words, but suddenly his eyes froze.

"Look what's hidden in his boots!" Gu Mingda said.

Without any hesitation, the officers reached into the man's boots and pulled out a dagger.

Gu Mingda turned to the governor of Jingzhao and said: "This person carries a sharp weapon with him. Even if he is not the murderer, he is probably a swindler. Your Excellency, please go back and interrogate carefully, and you can also help the people of Qingcao Lane." They eliminate harm.”

The governor of Jingzhao naturally understands this truth. If he really catches a petty thief, it will count towards his political achievements later.

After leaving two officials to control this person, the others continued to move towards the house.

As they got closer, they immediately heard the sound of a fierce fight coming from the house, which covered up the sound of their footsteps.

An experienced old catcher kicked open the courtyard door, and a group of officials rushed in with knives.

The two people who were fighting in the yard never thought that there would be such a sudden change.

Their first reaction was to run away, but there was another group of officials waiting at the back door.

No matter how powerful they were in martial arts, they couldn't stop the ants from biting the elephant to death. In the end, only a few young officials who were eager to serve were injured, and they took down the thieves in this room.

It's just that whether it was Gu Mingda or Jingzhao Fuyin, they felt chills running down their spines when they thought about it afterwards.

There were a total of six thieves in the house, all of them were good fighters. The two people who were fighting in the yard earlier were even more powerful in martial arts. This time, they were able to take down this group of people purely by being caught off guard. The man in gray robe even almost ran away during the journey. When he was escaping, he accidentally tripped over a stone hidden in the grass and was caught.

The governor of Jingzhao waved his sleeves and said proudly to a group of thieves who were pinned to the ground: "Thanks to my command, otherwise I would have let you run away!"

Gu Mingda, who was standing in the yard, looked back at Niu Niu. Niu Niu was standing at the entrance of the alley, stretching her neck and looking here, accompanied by Li Yaren.

Seeing that all the thieves were caught, the little girl was about to run over, but Gu Mingda shook his head at her. There were too many thieves here, and he was afraid that an accident would endanger his daughter.

There was a vague feeling in his heart that the arrest was so smooth today, maybe it was because of his daughter.

"Sir, there are many unconscious children inside! They are also kidnappers!" An official came over to report.

The governor of Jingzhao did not expect such an unexpected surprise. During this period, many children in the capital were missing, and people reported to the officials every day. However, these kidnappers were extremely careful in their work and did not miss any trace. Even if they wanted to I want to arrest people, but I can't find a clue for a while.

Now this situation, in the eyes of Jingzhao Prefecture Yin, is a double happiness.

"You thieves not only abducted and trafficked young children, but also murdered imperial officials!" Jingzhao Prefecture's Yin scolded sternly.

Wu Wulang and the man in gray robe looked at each other. There was almost no need for any extra words, and the two of them reached a consensus.

"Forgive me, sir, we are indeed kidnappers, but where did the words of murdering the imperial officials come from? We are truly unjust!" The two of them shouted at the same time.

Among the thieves present, only the man in gray robe knew that Wu Wulang had killed Lu Long, and the others did not know at all.

"I knew you people would be tough-talking and take them back to be tortured." Jingzhao Prefecture Yin gave the order, and a group of officials ran back with a few thieves, not even the one who was watching the wind was left behind.

Wu Wulang was escorted forward by the officer. He passed by Niu Niu and Li Yaren. Li Yaren was obviously someone he knew, but for some reason, he kept looking at Niu Niu as if he was out of control.

It was as if the little girl in front of him should be someone he knew.

Gu Mingda didn't dare to let such a vicious person get more involved with his daughter. He was just afraid to run to Niu Niu and protect the little girl behind him.

Niu Niu tilted her head and asked, "Is the person who keeps looking at me the murderer?"

Wu Wulang walked with a limp, making him much easier to recognize than ordinary people.

Gu Mingda nodded.

A look of confusion appeared on Niu Niu's face and she said: "Before I saw this person, I always thought he was very bad, but when I saw him, I felt that he was not that bad."

Gu Mingda knew that his daughter had always judged good and bad based on intuition, but he was also afraid that her daughter would rely too much on these magical ways and lose her sensitivity to other things. He knelt down, looked at his daughter levelly, and said, "People in this world are sometimes complicated. It’s hard to say good or bad clearly.”

A thoughtful look appeared on Niu Niu's face.

This group of thieves entered the Jingzhao Mansion and confessed to the kidnapping and trafficking of children. However, regarding Lu Long, they either refused to admit it, or they said it was a spur-of-the-moment move, and they refused to admit that someone was behind it.

"Master Gu, the case has been frozen again, what can we do?" Jingzhao Governor now relies heavily on Gu Mingda, looking at Gu Mingda expectantly, hoping to find some useful methods from him.
