Li Guolou washed his face with water and shook his head a few times, it seemed that he was a little dizzy, and he also asked for it, and then used a trick to scare people. At this time, Li Guolou only had one way to Huashan, and he ran to the group of passers-by first, and there was the greatest possibility of a murderer here. More than 100 passers-by stood in rows, and Li Guolou walked in front of them.

Li Guolou shouted: "Give me my fingers out!" ”

After walking around, Li Guolou dragged five people out of the crowd and shouted, "Take them to the yamen." ”

Ai Haihu asked: "Deputy Li, why are there five suspects?" ”

Li Guolou glanced at the five suspects and said: "Some of them are murderers, some of them are accomplices at the scene, and some people may be at the scene of the crime, and they have been threatened by the murderers. ”

Ai Hai asked, "Team Deputy Li, how do you know?" ”

Li Guolou said: "Ai Bald, you all have a runny nose, I am a dog's nose." They all smelled of gunpowder and were at the scene at the time of the crime. ”

Wu Defu leaned to the side, smelled the smell of the five suspects, frowned, ran to Li Guolou's side, and said, "Little Lizi, what are you doing?" Why can't I smell it? ”

Li Guolou put his fingers to his mouth and said softly: "Master Wu, don't talk about gangs, all five of them are seriously suspicious, and dog-eat-dog will definitely confide." ”

Wu Defu said softly: "Little Lizi, then how do you know? ”

Li Guolou said in a low voice: "Master Wu, I am the best at looking at people's faces, I am touching the calluses on their hands, and smelling the smell on their bodies, they themselves are already panicking." ”

Wu Defu hurriedly said: "What about the gun? ”

Li Guolou glanced at the merchants in front of him, ran over and said, "Which of you has hidden two guns, hurry up and hand them over, otherwise they will be searched out later and the whole door will be beheaded." The hounds will come later, and you won't be able to hide it if you want. ”

Only the hound was used to scare the merchants, and a merchant threw himself on his knees and howled: "The official is none of my business, it is the young man who forced me to hide the gun, and it is the thin man in the middle." ”

The thin man didn't wait for the official to take him down, took out a pill from his arms, stuffed it into his mouth, and shouted: "A good man does things well, I do it alone, and it doesn't matter to anyone else." ”

Li Guolou hurriedly said: "Catch the person next to you!" ”

He expected that the other murderer also had poison, but it was too late, and another man in his thirties also swallowed the poison, looked up to the sky and smiled, and collapsed to the ground and died.

Li Guolou didn't expect that these two murderers were still dead soldiers, it seems that there is a bigger conspiracy in this case, who in the world raised the dead soldiers? can also equip the dead with poison, what is the secret of this case, it has become a headless case.

Wu Defu had never encountered such a strange thing, two murderers committed suicide in the street, and the great work they had done was lost. The anger was vented directly to Li Guolou, and he said angrily: "Little Lizi, why don't you tie up these five suspects, I will beat you to death." ”

Li Guolou opened his mouth, pointed at those servants, and said, "Master Wu, they are not my subordinates, how can I order them." ”

Wu Defu said angrily: "Little Lizi, you dare to talk back, go back and lock you up for three days." ”

Li Guolou felt so aggrieved, he was just a team leader, and there were many people at the scene who were higher in level than him, how could he order others. He was just frightened, he didn't find out the real murderer, he wanted to go back to the yamen to screen the five suspects, and he didn't think that the suspect would commit suicide, who would have thought about it? Wu Defu is the highest official on the scene, but he shirks the responsibility completely. Instead, he became the number one culprit in this case, which is unreasonable.

The case was solved, and two well-made flintlock pistols were found. But the officials and catchers present did not have a sense of accomplishment, but there was a cold air, colder than winter, which made people can't help but imagine what would happen if they met two dead soldiers? Let people taste the bitter fruit of failure, the dead bodies everywhere, is their harvest today, the main culprit of the murder is hidden behind the scenes, and no one can find out. A clueless case that made everyone bow their heads, not as majestic and heroic as they usually walked on the street.

Li Guolou and his small team walked behind the team, although he was in a low mood, his five subordinates had become arrogant, and they were still the most beautiful in their team, and they took care of both good and bad things.

Wu Defu deliberately walked slowly, stopped by Li Guolou's side, and said in a low voice: "Little Lizi, don't touch this case again, I don't want to collect the body for you." ”

Li Guolou looked at the chief, just now in Biandan Hutong, Wu Defu shouted to the people and the families of the deceased, saying that he would investigate this case to the end, and praised him in public. said that he would hand over this case to the best arrester, so isn't he the best at the scene of the crime? Li Guolou had already burned his fighting spirit, but it all came to naught at once.

Jingshi hides filth and dirt, there are too many ulterior secrets, the palace, nobles, high-ranking officials, gangs, rivers and lakes, including himself, are doing dirty things, how many can be exposed? Li Guolou thought to himself, thinking in his heart about the case of the loss of money in the treasury of the household department, this earth-shattering case, is it really only 150,000 taels of silver, and the book does not match?

The Qing Empire was ruled by the Manchus for more than 100 years, and the white silver in the treasury made many people blush. When silver is large or small, it must be remelted and cast into uniform silver nuggets and ingots. The local fire consumption will lose at least three dollars, and the extra fire consumption silver will be privately swallowed by those local officials, and the cattiness in this is already known to the world.

"Three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver!" It is obtained from the consumption of fire. In the past, there must have been silver theft in the treasury, broken silver re-smelted, and the deficit was filled by fire, and those officials could fill the deficit in the treasury.

Today, he has seen the treasury silver of the treasury, and he has already guessed why Yu Shuzhen, the head of the household department, exposed this scandal? Those Manchurian subordinates did not take Yu Shuzhen in their eyes, there was no miscellaneous silver or broken silver in such a large treasury, all of them were Tongzhou silver unified with large ingots, and they did not give Yu Shuzhen the opportunity to apply for fire consumption and re-melting the furnace, that is, they deliberately made it difficult for Yu Shuzhen, the head of the household department. No wonder Yu Shuzhen broke the kettle, offended all his Manchu colleagues, and directly stabbed the emperor for the loss of silver in the treasury.

This case is a battle of officialdom, the highest level of the Qing Empire has drawn its sword and crossbows, to the point where water and fire are incompatible, and even the assassination of officials has been done, what will happen next? He couldn't imagine it, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

When he returned to the Criminal Department, Li Guolou took a breath and took a sip of tea, and he had not yet called his subordinates to a meeting. Wu Ta came over and asked him to see Wu Defu, Li Guolou said: "Xiao Wu, is Lao Lu at Master Wu's?" ”

Wu Ta nodded and said, "Of course, Xiao Lizi has to accept praise today, and you have to be locked up again, and all the good and bad things will be your turn." ”

Li Guolou asked Wu Tatar to wait for him for a while, called Ai Hai and a few other subordinates, and said: "Here is a list of all the officials and treasury officials who can enter the treasury, you give me a serious investigation of their family situation and financial situation, I want the real situation, don't mess up the errand, otherwise my knees will come up." ”

Ma Dequan laughed, and the people in the room raised their eyebrows, in the past they were nobodies in the Criminal Department, and now their squadron is the most famous team.

After Li Guolou finished explaining what he was going to do next, he walked towards the back hall with Wu Tatar, a group of fake foreign devils Du Xianyu, Huang Guang, and Yu Hanbing were receiving Shang Shubao from the Criminal Department in the back hall, and the master couldn't lack him, as for whether he would be confined at night? I'm afraid it's going to be yellow, because there is still a banquet waiting for him. Li Guolou thought about it beautifully, and when he got to Wu Defu, he was accused of going directly into the confinement room, and he didn't have to go out tomorrow, and he would be locked up for three days.

Li Guolou looked up and down the faces of Wu Defu and Lu Haikong, and said, "Master Wu, you're joking." Since you want to bluff people, don't shake your sleeves, your expression hasn't changed, but the movements of your limbs have been deformed. ”

Wu Defu shouted angrily: "Nonsense! The commander's order will not be changed, this is an order from Master Bao. ”

Li Guolou sat down and said, "Master Wu said this, I am more relieved, Master Bao has to give a direct order even for such a trivial matter, and I will climb on top of Master Wu's head." ”

Wu Defu hurriedly said: "You, you, how can you drink my tea, you don't pay attention to hygiene." ”

Lu Haikong couldn't hold back and said with a smile: "Master Wu, I said I can't hide it from Xiao Lizi, his ability to bluff people is innate, and the group of people in the household department have been making trouble for a long time and haven't seen through Xiao Lizi's old bottom." ”

Wu Defu refused to admit defeat and said: "Don't worry about your size, you will be confined at night, and when you will be released depends on the mood of the official." ”

Li Guolou put down the teacup and sighed: "Anyway, I am a donkey, and I am commanded by you casually, so I ask your subordinates to be merciful and not to do anything about unloading and killing donkeys." ”

Wu Defu pointed at Li Guolou and shouted: "Be honest with me in front of Lord Bao, don't make your own claims, you are pulling out a gun in the household department, and the person has not come back, and the matter has already stabbed Lord Bao." It's okay now, everyone thinks that Lord Bao and Lord Yu have reconciled, look at what you did, our criminal department didn't even catch a tael of silver, so we will express our stance on this kind of thing first. ”

Li Guolou said: "Master Wu, you have to look at the future, with the help of Lord Yu, everyone will have a good life in the future, you can't just look at the current interests, which time Xiao Li Zi did a loss-making business." ”

Wu Defu thumped his chest and paused his feet, looked up to the sky and said: "Little Lizi, how can you even overhear what I said to Master Bao, do you have ears?" ”

Li Guolou glanced at it and said: "It's good that I really have a tailwind ear, I know how long you want to lock me up, and now I can only know how sad I am by listening to how long you have been locked up Liu Chengle." ”

Lu Haikong said with a smile: "Little Lizi, Brother Yao knew that you beat Liu Chengle, a bastard, and died of laughter." I hope you will beat Liu Chengle into a eunuch, so that you can take the first step to success. ”

The three of them began to talk about intrigue in the room, and their voices were very soft, and they made it clear which person to target next, and how to calculate the opponent's task was still planned by Wu Defu. As for the grasp of the opportunity, just like Li Guolou's shot this time, he made the opponent plant it with one move, which made Liu Chengle's reputation in the criminal department stink. It turned out that Li Guolou deliberately found fault and made Liu Chengle angry, and all the conspiracies and tricks can be traced.
