Chapter 176


At the time of the crime, Xu Shenzhou was coming out of Feng's house, and he came to Middle Street, and heard someone shouting, Xu Shenzhou had been the head catcher for several months, and immediately ran in the direction where the voice came.

Lewen novels The water on the ground was trampled and splashed, and the swing of the green robe was also wet by the rain, and the autumn rain was cold, and it slapped on the face, and it was very uncomfortable to be wet.

There were already people crowding at the entrance of the alley in front of him, Xu Shenzhou was about to step forward, and suddenly his heart moved, and when he looked back, he vaguely only saw a pink robe, and a plain snow-colored pleated skirt underneath, which was raised by the wind, and disappeared into the corner of the left hand side in a flash.

Xu Shenzhou didn't have time to think about it, he still walked towards the alley, pushed the crowd in front of him, and saw the scholar lying on the ground at a glance.

His whole body was drenched, and the blood flowed from his waist like a stream, and as the rain spread wantonly on the ground, the scarlet and terrible color was carried by the rain, and it snaked on the ground like a spiritual creature.

No wonder so many people are so far away.

Xu Shenzhou stepped forward quickly, and at this moment, someone next to him recognized him, because he said: "It's Xu Ye, Xu Zhutou of the county government."

Someone else asked, "Who died?"

Xu Shenzhou had already come to the man who had fallen to the ground, and looked down.

The scribe's scarf on his head was slightly tilted, his hair and face were wet, his eyes were still wide open, and some blood swelled up from the corners of his mouth, and the pool of blood under his body gradually became a mess.

However, looking at this side face, Xu Shenzhou couldn't help but move his hand, and the oil-paper umbrella fell to the ground with the wind.

Xu Shenzhou ignored the rain, leaned over and reached out, straightening his lifeless face slightly.

The scholar turned his back to the sky, and the rain poured into his eyes, but in his mouth, he did not move, and his eyes, which had lost their luster a little, looked straight at the gray sky above his head, and the rain was like arrows.

Xu Shenzhou let go and took two steps back sharply, and the sound of rain rushed up, as if drowning him.

A quarter of an hour later, someone said: "Okay, okay, Xie Xiaoshi is here" just because Yun Wei followed Cheng Dianshi in the county government, and gradually emerged, everyone recognized him, and he was only called "Xie Xiaoshi".

When the onlookers heard this, they hurriedly moved out of the way to both sides, and they all looked behind them.

But I saw that on the bluestone pavement, in the wind and rain, a young man in a dark green round-necked robe was like a bamboo, and he was walking towards here with four or five catchers.

She held a light brown oil-paper umbrella in her hand, and her face under the umbrella was still quiet and peaceful, as if the storm in front of her no longer existed.

Yun Wei didn't squint, and before he walked out of the crowd, he had already seen the corpse on the ground, and at the same time, he could see Xu Shenzhou standing next to the corpse.

Blood flowed everywhere, and the catchers all walked cautiously, and acted separately, or interrogated passers-by, or looked for witnesses, and some of them stepped forward quickly, and they raised an umbrella for Xu Shenzhou: "When will Xu Ye come?"

Xu Shenzhou didn't say anything.

Yun Wei came to the deceased's side, stared at it for a long time, and then asked Xu Shenzhou: "When did Xu Zhutou come?"

Xu Shenzhou replied in a dumb voice: "Probably he died not long ago." ” Seeing that his face was wrong, Yun Wei asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Xu Shenzhou's throat moved, and finally said, "I recognize this person."

Because of the rain for half a day, his whole body was soaked, and his voice seemed to tremble a little: "His name is Du Yuanshi, he was in Feng Mansion, and he was also there when he gave Feng Lang a funeral." ” Before Yun Wei could answer, Xu Shenzhou's face suddenly changed, as if he remembered something, he actually rushed out of the umbrella, and quickly walked out of the crowd, ran out of the alley in one breath, and turned right.

The umbrella catcher was inexplicable, and Yun Wei said: "Keep up with him" The catcher came to his senses, and he was busy chasing after him with an umbrella.

After watching the scene, Yun Wei ordered the corpse to be transported back to the county government quickly, but Xu Shenzhou had not returned at this moment.

Yun Wei wanted to go back to the county government to report the details to Bai Qinghui, but after thinking about it, he also went out of the alley, turned right and went forward, and came to the street, but he didn't see Xu Shenzhou's figure, and even the umbrella catcher was gone.

At this time, the sky rumbled as if there was a muffled thunder, and the clouds slowly raised their heads, and saw ten thousand points of cold rain descending from the gray sky, looking like ten thousand arrows piercing the heart.

In the county government study, Yun Wei explained the scene of the crime in detail, and told Xu Shenzhou about his acquaintance with the deceased.

The catchers who went to the scene also said: "I asked everyone present, and they all said that they didn't see how the murderer killed people, but two people said that they saw a woman with a peach blossom umbrella passing by. ” Another catcher said: "It is said that I also heard the sound of singing, which is very terrifying, like crying. ” Bai Qinghui said: "What about the identity of the deceased?"

One of them caught the fast and said: "The one who died was Du Yuanshi Du Gongzi, who was also from a scholarly family, but he was a man of some talent, and he looked good at temperament, and he didn't seem to be able to grudge with others." ” Bai Qinghui said: "Notify his family to come and identify the body, and then carefully check whether the people in his family are suspicious." ” The catchers went in response, and Yun Zheng also wanted to go with him, Bai Qinghui said: "You don't have to go. ” When everyone went, Bai Qinghui said: "Originally, when Feng Lang died, I thought that this might just be an ordinary vendetta case, so as to investigate his family in detail.

However, from today's point of view, Du Yuanshi and Feng Lang knew that he was killed after returning from the Feng family's sacrifice, and it would be too coincidental to say that it was too coincidental.

It's like a serial murder case, so it shouldn't have anything to do with the deceased's family, just ask them to investigate, and you don't have to go again. ” Yun Wei nodded: "That's what the adults said." ” Bai Qinghui said: "There may be some unknown secrets between Du Yuanshi and Feng Lang, but Feng Lang has obviously only returned to the local area not long ago" Speaking of this, he called another catcher to come and said: "Send two people to go out to find Xu Zhutou." ” At this moment, only the two of them were left in the study, because of the rain, the light was dim, Bai Qinghui walked to the window, didn't say a word, just watched quietly.

Yun Wei said: "What are you thinking?"

Bai Qinghui said: "I'm thinking about Du Yuanshi's death, whether it is the end. ” Yun Wei frowned: "The adult means that there will be people who will die" Bai Qinghui said: "Xu Zhutou's reaction is a little peculiar, just ask him in detail when he comes back."

He turned to look at Yun Wei and said, "You just said that Du Yuanshi was stabbed in the abdomen and died, but the modus operandi is very different from the previous time, I don't know if this means."

Yun Wei recalled the situation at the time and said: "Du Yuanshi also has a frightened face, the same mouth is slightly open, with the murderer's ruthlessness, I think as long as the murderer is willing, he can kill Du Yuanshi according to the method of killing Feng Lang, but he has changed a method." ” Bai Qinghui nodded, and suddenly said again: "By the way, you just said that his injury was in the abdomen, and I didn't hear you mention the murder weapon." ” Yun Wei thought for a while, and said, "Yes, I missed this section, and this time the deceased did not have a murder weapon left on him." ” Bai Qinghui said: "Don't worry, I can't go to the scene to check in person, you remember it so clearly and meticulously, it's already extremely rare, where can you be thoughtful." ” After the two talked for a while, they heard footsteps outside, and the figure at the door flickered, but it was Xu Shenzhou who walked in.

It turned out that after Xu Shenzhou found out that the deceased was actually Du Yuanshi, he couldn't help but think of the pink skirt he saw on the corner of the street, and then thought of Feng Lang's death, so he naturally thought of the murderer with a peach blossom umbrella, and chased after him.

It's just that it's been a long time now, and although there are still pedestrians on the street, the shadow of the pink skirt has long disappeared.

Xu Shenzhou ran desperately and chased two streets, but still found nothing.

Xu Shenzhou explained that he saw the corner of the skirt, and said: "I think that person is the murderer, but unfortunately I didn't catch it." ” Yun Wei said: "Just now I discussed with the county magistrate, and the lord suspects that the murderer may still commit crimes." ” Xu Shenzhou was taken aback: "What" Bai Qinghui said: "This is just my speculation.

Since Xu Zhutou knows the Feng family and the Du family, it is best for you to investigate this case, and you will find out in detail whether Feng Lang and Du Yuanshi have a bad relationship with others, whether the two have a good relationship, and who they have a close relationship with. ” Xu Shenzhou didn't answer, he seemed a little absent-minded, and his eyes wandered.

Bai Qinghui looked at him: "Xu Zhutou" Xu Shenzhou raised his head, looked at Bai Qinghui's cold and clear eyes, and clenched his fists and said, "Subordinates obey orders." ” Bai Qinghui saw him turn around and go out, so he said to Yun Wei: "Xu Zhutou seems to have something to hide. ” Yun Wei also saw that Xu Shenzhou was a little strange: "Could it be because old friends were killed one after another, so some hearts don't belong?"

Bai Qinghui pondered for a while, but did not answer, but only asked: "Is there any reliable and trustworthy person around you who is good at it?"

Yun Wei was stunned.

It turned out that after Yun Wei left Beijing before, everyone in Beijing had different experiences, except for Bai Qinghui and Ji Taoran's scientific expedition, Jiang Xun was appreciated by the squire of the military department because of his excellent skills and good background, so he let him enter the military department for training.

When Bai Qinghui went out of Beijing, due to the change in the military situation in the northwest, Jiang Xun wanted to go to the northwest with the envoy of the military department, he originally wanted to resign from Qinghui, but joining the army was what he had always wanted, where Qinghui was willing to let him break his wings for his own sake, only said that there was Aze by his side, and Jiang Xun went.

Unexpectedly, Aze was transferred by Bai Zhang, because Bai Qinghui was just a lonely person.

Bai Qinghui saw that she didn't answer, so he said: "We only said that the murderer knew Feng Lang and Du Yuanshi, so we asked Xu Zhutou to investigate this kind of person, but how could I forget that Xu Zhutou is in this category?"

Yun Wei heard him say this, and immediately understood: "The meaning of the county order is to let people secretly follow Xu Zhutou" Bai Qinghui nodded.

Yun Wei thought for a while, and said with a slight smile: "I did think of a person who is reliable and flexible, and has high martial arts, but she is not my person, I don't know if she is willing or not." ” It is said that after Xu Shenzhou left the county government, he did not go to greet the catcher, but only bowed his head and walked to Xu's mansion.

Halfway through, he stood still and hesitated for a moment, then looked back and saw that there was no one left and right behind him, and then went in the opposite direction of Xu's mansion.

At this moment, the rain has been much lighter, Xu Shenzhou walked for about two quarters of an hour, and then came to a house, only to see the door closed, on which the word "Luo House" was written, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, painted with gold paint, very magnificent.

Xu Shenzhou stepped forward and knocked twice, the door opened, and a door probed out, and when he saw Xu Shenzhou, he smiled and said: "It turned out to be Uncle Xu, why are you free today, please come in." ” Xu Shenzhou stepped inside and asked, "Your grandfather is at home."

Menzi said: "Today, the master has not gone out, I am only afraid of taking a nap at this time, if I know that Uncle Xu is coming, I will definitely not sleep." ” Xu Shenzhou didn't say much, he only went inside familiarly, and when he came to the inner house, there was already a small servant inside, and he saw Luo Tian wearing a stone blue silk robe, with a smile on his eyebrows, and greeted him.

Before he arrived, he smiled and said, "Master Xu, which gust of wind is blowing your master today?"

Before he arrived, he smelled the smell of fat powder all over his body, mixed with an indescribable taste, Xu Shenzhou hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't come here."

The sky is blue and the sun is white, what are you doing nonsense", and then sat down by himself.

Luo Tian smiled and sat opposite Xu Shenzhou on the couch, and at this moment the maid brought tea up, Xu Shenzhou didn't eat tea, only drooped his eyelids.

Luo Tian said: "What's wrong, it seems that there is something on my mind" Xu Shenzhou said: "It's Feng Lang's funeral today, why didn't you go to recognize one." ” Luo Tian smiled bitterly: "I want to go, but I'm afraid that if I go, the yin spirit under him will also blame me for being abrupt, you don't know, I have already broken with a few of them." ” Xu Shenzhou said: "The past, as for holding grudges for a long time" Luo Tian said: "I don't want to hold a grudge, but after seeing each other twice, I always feel that the nose is not the nose, the eyes are not the eyes, not to mention that he went outside a few years ago, and he was even more estranged, even if he came back and invited everyone, he never invited me, so although he had an accident, I only burned a stick of incense at home to send him, why did I personally run away to block you from coming over this trip, I will not blame me."

Xu Shenzhou lowered his head and said for a while: "I came for another thing." ” Luo Tian smiled and groaned: "This is a good brother, what is it for" He took the tea and moistened his throat.

Xu Shenzhou said: "Fang Cai, Du Yuanshi is also dead.

He was also killed by the man with the peach blossom umbrella. ” When Luo Tian heard this, his hand holding the tea shook slightly, and some of the tea was spilled: "You are serious" Xu Shenzhou said: "The corpse is still in the yamen, when he was killed, I was only one street away, you are not true."

Luo Tian slowly put down the teacup, his eyebrows tightened, and then asked, "In that case, why did you come to me here?"

Xu Shenzhou turned his head to meet his gaze and said, "When I left the county government before, the county order said that Du Yuanshi's death is not over. ” Luo Tian's eyes widened slowly: "What do you mean, the murderer will kill again, who else will he kill, why should he kill?"

Xu Shenzhou said: "I don't know about this.

Did you know."

Luo Tian's throat moved: "Xu Ye, how do you and I know" He slapped the table, "You never think that I am a murderer, although I have been unhappy with them, but as you said, it is all in the past, not to mention that if you were really angry with that, you would have done it a long time ago, why wait until now" Xu Shenzhou said: "I don't doubt you, I mean, you don't feel that this matter is a little strange."

Why did it be Feng Lang and Du Yuanshi who died?"

Looking at each other, Luo Tian said thoughtfully: "I understand, you are asking me if their death is the same as back then."

The author has something to say: that thing is related to " Xu Shenzhou's face changed slightly, and he was silent.

Luo Tian smiled and said: "Master Xu, you are still catching your head, you are so worried, what an old story it is, and now you are suspicious and suspicious again, you are too careful, maybe the two of them hooked up in private, and offended some cow, ghost, snake and god."

Besides, you don't have to worry, doesn't it mean that the murderer will commit another crime, and when another person dies, he will naturally understand whether it has something to do with that incident. ”gd1806102:
