Ma Lie carefully investigated the scene and finally found a few clear trampling marks in the side lawn. And this lawn is facing the gate of the synagogue on the first floor of the castle.

From this, it can be judged that the murderer was squatting here at that time, aiming a gun at the door of the synagogue.

Considering that it was Ma Lie himself standing inside the gate at that time, he suddenly came to a startling conclusion.

The murderer's target is not Zuo Guang, nor Chang Mu, but himself. After his dodge, Zuo Light became another live target.

Moreover, Ma Lie also recalled a strange picture. After Zuo Guang's death, Chang Mu was heartbroken and muttered the words: You didn't kill him, but you killed him?

Thinking of this sentence, Ma Lie carefully recalled the previous experience, especially the scene after Chang Mu came in, and vaguely sensed a terrible conclusion: Could this murderer be arranged by Chang Mu to assassinate him?

If it is really Chang Mu, then he is self-inflicted, and he can't buy a murderer, but he kills his beloved confidant?

Half an hour later, except for Ma Lie's group who found clues, the other search and arrest operations did not yield anything. It is highly likely that the murderer has fled, or that someone inside has done it.

Marlie returned to the castle hall with a few questions, and he first had to determine whether the murderer was an outsider or an insider.

There were only more than one hundred and twenty bodyguards in the castle, armed with a unified Type 92 9mm pistol. Maybe there's some clue to that bullet. Ma Lie wanted to investigate with his own hands, but on the way, he received a call from the old man, telling him to talk about something.

Ma Lie had no choice but to order He Jiachang, who he trusted the most at the moment, to take charge of this matter, and he went upstairs to see the old man.

The old man still met him in the study.

After entering Old Man Hang's study, Ma Lie got straight to the point and briefly told Old Man Sù about his plan to investigate and clean up the mole and the unexpected incident of Zuo Guang's unfortunate heavy bomb death.

The old man listened quietly, then stretched out his hand to stop what he was about to explain, and interrupted: "Ma Lie, don't worry about this matter for now, I have a more important matter for you to do." ”

Ma Lie reluctantly said: "Old man, this Zuo Guang's death seems to be directly related to me, and I have already found some clues, if I don't investigate it myself, I'm afraid this will become a headless case." ”

"No need to look it up!" The old man interrupted without question: "I already know who the murderer is. ”

Ma Lie was stunned and asked urgently, "Who is it?" ”

The old man shook his head and said: "I know it's him, and I guess that there must be some misunderstanding between you and him, so he killed you, but I don't plan to pursue it, so you don't need to investigate any further, help me do another important thing." ”

Hang Wentai didn't say it explicitly, but Ma Lie heard the voice outside the words, and suddenly said: "The murderer is Chang Butler?" ”

Old Man Hang said: "Don't ask, I won't tell you." ”

"It must be him!" Thinking of Chang Mu's gloomy face, Ma Lie's fists couldn't help clenching, and he shouted angrily: "I have no grudge against him, there was a little misunderstanding in the morning, and there is no need to call someone to assassinate me, right?" ”

Old Man Hang persuaded: "Ma Lie, this matter has nothing to do with you, and it is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation in the future." But now you have to do another thing for me, as long as you get things done, I won't hold you accountable for your disloyalty to Yuki. ”

Hearing this, Ma Lie eased his dissatisfaction a little, and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?" ”

The old man was silent for a while, and asked in a deep voice: "The Hang family has a saying, do you know what it is." ”

Ma Lie didn't know what to do, shook his head and said, "I don't know? ”

Old man Hang said word by word: "The Hang family is a family, inspiring and united, repaying kindness and revenge, and meeting the enemy's provocation, ten times the return." ”

Ma Lie praised perfunctorily: "Good note! ”

Old Man Hang sighed: "It's a pity that this sentence has not been practiced for many years. ”

"Why?"

"Because, it has never had the opportunity to practice!" Old Man Hang's tone was cold, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The kid surnamed Kong dared to send someone to attack and kidnap my family Xue Zhen, I will get this account back no matter what." Three days later, it will be Kong's birthday, do you think I should come to congratulate him? ”

Ma Lie immediately said: "Do you still need to ask, there is no need to discuss!" ”

"Hmm!" Old Man Hang nodded and said, "Three days later, you will go to the capital on behalf of my Hang family, present a big gift to the Kong family, and ask for something to come back by the way." ”

Ma Lie was stunned in surprise, pointed to his nose and said, "Old man, why am I going?" ”

Old Man Hang sighed: "I'm old, if the Kong family and my Hang family still have a good relationship with the previous one, I can rest assured that I can send Xue Zhen to go." ”

Ma Lie has already understood that Old Man Hang can trust at present, and Ma Lie may be the only one who can successfully complete this task.

Moreover, the old man sent Ma Lie to the Kong family to congratulate him, and even recognized his identity as the son-in-law of the Hang family.

Thinking of this, Ma Lie naturally had no reason to escape, and gladly accepted the old man's dispatch. Of course, Ma Lie also has a little selfishness of his own.

His current primary goal is to collect the six volumes of Ziyuan Divine Skill together, and it has been confirmed that he has collected Jiang and Hang, plus Gu Wanqing's commitment to cooperation. If the cooperation with Gu Wanqing went well, he would have mastered the three Purple Yuan Gong by now.

Three days later, I went to the Confucian family in the capital to congratulate, and maybe there would be some unexpected gains.

After saying goodbye to Old Man Hang, Ma Lie returned to the office of the Security Department on the first floor.

He planned to take advantage of Zuoguang's sudden death to reintegrate the city guards.

As soon as Zuo Guang died, Ma Chongjun, Lu Yifa, Tan Chong and others no longer had the backbone, and they didn't have the courage to dare to fight against Ma Lie.

When Ma Lie returned to the office in a majestic manner, his eyes swept coldly, and these people immediately looked like ashes, and their heads drooped in panic.

In stark contrast to them, He Jiachang was still secretly glad that he was on the right track, and he would follow Captain Ma in the future, and He Chou would have no future.

Ma Lie sat on the main seat and beckoned to a few people: "You guys, come here!" ”

"Captain Ma!" He Jiachang responded positively and hurriedly came over and stood beside Ma Lie.

Ma Chongjun, Tan Chong and the others glanced at each other, and finally reluctantly left their seats and came to Ma Lie.

"Captain Ma, what's the matter with you?"

Ma Lie pointed to the row of sofas in front of him, motioned for them to sit down, and then spoke: "Everyone, Vice Captain Left has a game with us, and he is our comrade-in-arms, good brother." Now, he unfortunately passed away, I am deeply sorry, and sincerely mourn, to the left vice-captain, let us observe a minute of silence for him! ”

As he spoke, Ma Lie suddenly stood up, lowered his head seriously, and expressed his deep sorrow.

Ma Chongjun and the others just sat down, their buttocks were still hot, and seeing Ma Lie so serious, they didn't dare to slack off, and they lowered their heads to express their grief.

After a minute of silence, Ma Lieping motioned for everyone to sit down and said, "The left deputy captain has passed away, but we are still alive, our work, our life continues. ”

Ma Lie deliberately paused his tone, his eyes swept coldly to a few people, and said lukewarmly: "I never care about my previous mistakes, let it pass when it passes, and you are the same, from today onwards, I am the real captain of the city guard, if anyone is not convinced, or refuses to accept me, please hand in the letter of resignation, the bonus salary will be settled on the same day, I will not force it." ”

As soon as the words stopped, the scene was silent, and no one dared to stand up and express their position.

Ma Lie nodded with satisfaction and continued: "But if you still want to continue to work for the castle, then please let go of the past, put aside personal grievances, and do your job in a down-to-earth manner. ”

"No comment!" As Captain Ma's number one cadre, He Jiachang is naturally a statement.

The others did not answer for the sake of face, and remained silent to acquiesce.

Ma Lie raised his tone and said, "Since you have no opinion, then I will talk about it in advance, and I will not spare anyone who is violating the rules and making small moves behind his back in the future." ”

After speaking, he took out a form from his pocket, handed it to He Jiachang, and instructed: "You wait and act together, gather the people on the list for me, and wait for my further instructions on how to deal with it." ”

"Yes, Captain." He Jiachang hurriedly responded, took the list and looked at it, and found that there were thirty or forty names densely recorded on the paper, some of which were members of the city guards.

"Alright, it's time to close the net, you guys go and prepare now!" After sending away a few of the leaders of the guards, Ma Lie rarely had a moment's time, rubbed his eyes, and took a nap on his back in a comfortable chair.

Not long after, he was awakened by a rapid ringing of his mobile phone.

I took out the phone and looked at it, and found that it was an unfamiliar phone number. Ma Lie didn't have to think about it, just hang up! Unexpectedly, the mobile phone rang immediately, and the unfamiliar number called again.

It's just three things, it shouldn't be those boring advertising calls, Ma Lie pressed the answer button, and a soft voice came into his ears from the other end of the phone: "Ma Lie, is it you?" ”

In just one sentence, Ma Lie knew that this voice was more seductive than those late-night radio anchors, and he listened to it very well, and replied honestly: "Well, I'm Ma Lie, may I ask ...... you are?"

"Can't you tell who I am, I'm Qing'er's mother."

"Qing'er's mother...... Isn't that my own mother? Ma Lie was stunned for a few seconds before a beautiful and mature woman's face appeared in his mind, and he was surprised: "You are Li Xiangyun?" ”

"You kid, there are no rules and no distance, I am your elder, how can you call me by my name casually?" On the other end of the phone, Li Xiangyun was a little unhappy.

Ma Liehan smiled: "Auntie, I'm sorry, I was so surprised, by the way, why do you have my phone?" ”

"I asked your mom for it, I want to ask you for a favor!"

"What are you asking, if you have anything to say, I will definitely help!"

Ma Lie readily agreed, but Li Xiangyun's next sentence almost choked him.

"Yesterday afternoon, I ...... I saw you on the bus! ”
