Chapter 55: The Daughter Who Died Tragically

"Then what are you doing now...... Catch a thief? Xu Wen was puzzled.

"This ......" Li Zhutou looked embarrassed, coughed lightly and exhaled a breath of white air, "No, it's nothing, it's just to lead people to patrol and maintain law and order." ”

"Li Zhutou, you didn't lie to me." Xu Wen narrowed his eyes, "My relationship with you, as for telling me lies?" Are you hiding something from me? ”

Li Zhutou pursed his lips, sighed and said, "Since Xu Gongzi wants to know so much, then come with me." Bring your cape, it's cold tonight. ”

Just as Xiaoqing came out with a cloak and handed it to Xu Wen.

Xu Wen said softly: "I'll be back in a while." After speaking, he turned his head to look at Li Zhutou, and the two left in a hurry.

They came to a ditch at the entrance of North Street, and four or five officials pulled out a corpse from the ditch.

Xu Wen took a step back, and after the light of the torch illuminated the corpse, his face was shocked, "This is ...... This! ”

Li Zhutou's face was solemn, and he waved his hand and said, "Carry it to the yamen first." ”

The corpse was dressed in nothing, it was a woman, with numerous whip marks and wounds that looked like it had been bitten by something. Shocking, from the head to the soles of the feet. Xu Wen has killed people and seen many dead people, but it is the first time he has seen such a miserable person.

He couldn't help but snort, "This...... Li Zhutou, what's going on? ”

Li Zhutou said in a deep voice: "I was bitten by a vicious dog." ”

"Bitten by a vicious dog? But I haven't heard of any vicious dogs around here...... Wait, I remembered, Li Zhutou, recently, I heard that the corpse of an unknown woman will be found in the east of our city every once in a while. The death is tragic, and there are at least a dozen of them. You mean to say that a vicious dog bit a dozen women to death? Xu Wen narrowed his eyes, and when he looked at this woman's appearance again, he felt a little familiar.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Li Zhutou, this ......"

"Shh Li Zhutou hurriedly grabbed Xu Wen and pulled Xu Wen aside, "You guys, go on, find something to cover her face." ”

Xu Wenyu couldn't bear it, took off his cloak, walked towards the young lady of the Zhu family, and covered her.

Li Zhutou stood aside, and after Xu Wen stood up, he pulled Xu Wen to a corner, and said with a sad face: "Young Master Xu, it's already interesting for me to bring you over to see, don't ask." Asking too much is not good for you or me. ”

"Li Zhutou, what do you mean by that? More than a dozen women have died in your precinct, and you say they were killed by vicious dogs. Yes, those wounds on her body do look like they were bitten by vicious dogs, but what do you say about those whip marks on her body? Moreover, Li Zhutou, this is the eldest lady of the Zhu family, and her ancestor is the general of the Qin State! Xu Wen didn't want to meddle in things, he just felt weird. Even if one dies, more than a dozen female corpses were found one after another.

There must be something hidden behind this.

Li Zhutou sighed, "What can I do, I am also ordered to do things, those people, I can't afford to mess with them." Xu Gongzi, in my position, no matter if I have to think about the people of Xianyang City, I also have to wipe the butts of those big people. I can't help it, but I need to eat. ”

Xu Wenming Bai Li catches the head, what he means is that he doesn't want to care about this matter.

Xu Wen continued to ask, "Then how are you going to solve it?" The person who died is the eldest lady of the family, if you don't find out, will the masters of the family give up? ”

"I've been thinking about this for a long time, so let's just grab a death row prisoner in the dungeon." Li Zhutou sighed.

He clearly didn't want to worry about it. He said that he was wiping the ass of those big people, so if he said that, these things were done by some big man. And it's a big guy he definitely can't mess with.

Xu Wen looked at the female corpse that was being put into a bag, and clenched his fists tightly. He knew that the Qin Kingdom was dark and inhumane, but like this, it was too dark. He had heard of this eldest lady of all families, who was gentle and elegant. The last time I saw her was a few months ago, during the New Year's celebration. At that time, he felt like a little girl next door, very shy. But he is also very filial.

Such a young lady is now dead like this, Xu Wen is very unhappy.

The darkness of the Qin State refreshed his cognition again and again. Even after she died, no one wanted to find out the truth for her.

"Li Zhutou, can you tell me, who did it? You also let me have a bottom in my heart, and you also know that a girl just came to my inn, if I don't see it one day, I run out......" Xu Wen asked.

"This ......" Li Zhutou thought for a while and whispered: "General Chen's son, Chen Yi." ”

"You mean Chen Xingrong's son Chen Yi! It's him! ”

Li Zhutou looked flustered and looked around, "Be quiet, be quiet." Don't spread the word. ”

"It's like what can be done to him after it gets out." Xu Wen sighed.

Li Zhutou also sighed, "What you said is true." With his identity and status, even if it spreads, no one can help him. However, General Chen's most important thing is his reputation, and if this matter spreads, it will have a lot of impact on his reputation. Besides, most of the dead women are still daughters with status like Miss Zhu, and if this spreads, it will be a big trouble for them. ”

Xu Wen narrowed his eyes and raised his head to look at the clear starry sky.

"Listen to me, don't ask about this matter, I brought you here just to let you be careful and take care of the girl in your inn. If this is seen by the people under Chen Yi's hands, they will be brought back......"

"He dares! If he dares to touch a single hair of my man, I will burn his entire general's mansion! Xu Wen said angrily.

Li Zhutou looked flustered, pulled Xu Wen tightly, looked around to make sure that no one was there, and then said, "Young Master Xu, you be quiet." It's hard for you and me to interfere in this kind of thing, as long as it doesn't touch our heads, we should turn a blind eye. ”

"Then how did you know that he threw people here after he killed them?" Xu Wen asked.

"Well...... It was my people who saw it, and I came to clean it up. Some of them are busy tonight, so it seems that we have to find a chance to say hello to them, so let's not go too far. Even if you kill someone, don't throw them around. ”

What logic is this Nima!

He's a patrol in the east of the city!

Xu Wen sighed in his heart, after all, he was just a part-time worker for others. If he doesn't, someone else will do it, and then he won't even be able to eat. Fortunately, although this Li Zhutou is bad, he also has a bottom line, at least he didn't do such a cruel thing.
