For Zhang's case, even if Yuan Keli, the great Ming detective, no longer intervenes, Li Mi will not be able to give up, although he is involved in the Japanese and he has also been assassinated, and he has begun to show a lot of danger, but Li Mi will continue to investigate.

It's just that Xie Yingluo's aggressive posture is something that Li Mi can't accept, so he naturally wants to turn Xie Yingluo away.

At present, the case is temporarily over, and the secret of the bamboo stick has also been confirmed, and there is no need to go to Changzhou County to obtain the file, which is enough to prove that the Zhang family is indeed providing information for the Zhang family, and secretly cleaning up the hidden Japanese in the interior.

And the one who killed the Zhang family is very likely to be the fine work of the Japanese Kou, but these people are not alone, they may be a strict and powerful spy organization behind them, and it is not easy to investigate clearly for a while.

Li Mi hadn't been able to sleep for a long time, and he was busy for most of the night, and after sending Xie Yingluo away, he fell into a deep sleep.

This sleep was dark, and when I got up, it was already afternoon, and Qingque'er and the others had already come back from outside, after all, this time in the morning was the best time to make a living in the tooth shop.

Li Mi also noticed that Qingqueer and other children would deliberately accumulate some family funds in case of the dilemma of not having enough meals, but Jiu Bucket was passable, and eating enough was the most real, no wonder he was the fattest one.

In fact, Qingque'er, the child king, is now a little wealthy, and he doesn't need to go out to beg at all, but he can't let go of this group of children.

Lu Chongning gave Li Mi a dozen taels of silver, Li Mi didn't worry about food and clothing in a short time, and when he saw that the children were back, he wanted to send nine buckets out to buy some things and come back to satisfy his stomach.

However, Qingque'er and Jiu Bucket and others brought back a worrying news.

"Wronged, this morning someone has begun to spread the news everywhere, saying that Lu Maocai's wife is an unclean woman, and she has assassinated several people, and she has a name and surname, which is extremely credible, I am afraid that this news will spread soon..."

Li Mi already knew that behind this was the Wokou Meticulous Trickster, but he didn't expect their counterattack to be so fast!

Although he hadn't read those files, he learned about the style of the Japanese from Qingque'er and others.

Speaking of these Japanese robbers, there is also a historical origin.

Originally, there was an emperor in the Wa Kingdom, but the real power was in the hands of the Muromachi shogunate, and the shogunate daimyo controlled the real power of the country, ruling internally and externally.

The Ming Dynasty did not know much about the Wa Kingdom, and at that time it canonized Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the daimyo of the Muromachi shogunate, as the king of Japan.

This move caused contradictions and strife within the Wa Kingdom, and set off the Warring States Period, which this country of projectiles has always been passionate about, and the great lords rose up one after another, occupying the land as kings, and many ronins and samurai began to make waves rampantly.

These samurai were extremely loyal and adhered to the spirit of bushido, and after the lord was destroyed, they became wandering ghosts, and they fell into the grass and became the Japanese in the most primitive sense.

They made waves at sea, robbed passing merchant ships and fishing boats, and finally came ashore to plunder, and soon plundered a tremendous amount of primitive wealth, and then gathered more ronins and strengthened the ranks of the pirates.

At that time, Emperor Shenzong of the Ming Dynasty lived in the inner palace, ignoring the government and politics, the domestic situation was very grim, and the people were not able to make a living.

Many Japanese pirates even colluded with the local government to kill the common people, and some military generals also took advantage of this, sometimes treating the unemployed vagrants or some untouchables in the coastal areas as Japanese pirates to exterminate and seize military merits, which was also a mess.

People say that the Ming Dynasty is the most backbone of a dynasty, and for 276 years, it did not make peace, did not pay tribute, did not pay compensation, did not cut the land, the Son of Heaven guarded the country, and the king died in Sheji, which is not unreasonable.

The Ming Dynasty's encirclement and suppression of the Japanese Invaders is also very large, that is, the Shenzong Dynasty is a little forward, and there are famous anti-Japanese generals like Qi Jiguang, and today's anti-Japanese generals still follow Qi Jiguang's military law and art of war.

Although the Japanese came and went like the wind and it was difficult to encircle and suppress them, thanks to the legacy of Qi Jiguang and other anti-Japanese heroes, the survival of the Japanese invaders became more and more difficult.

In order to avoid encirclement and suppression, these Japanese robbers recruited a large number of fine workers and lurked in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

Not all of these meticulous works are Japanese people, and even a large part of them are leading the way party who are resentful of the Ming Dynasty.

They live like ordinary people in the streets, they have families, families, children and daughters, and even those closest to them do not know their true identities.

After the Zhang family assassinated these fine works, the family members of the fine works did not know the inside story at all, and thought that the family members were killed, if this news spread and let them know that the Zhang family was the culprit who killed their family, wouldn't these people have to turn the county government upside down?

Moreover, these cases are all unsolved headless cases, but as long as there is a little clue, these family members will not easily let go.

At that time, even if Jian Dingyong wanted to restart Zhang's case, it would be impossible.

Because he will be forced by the pressure of public opinion, there is no need to cause a civil uprising for the sake of an untraceable unsolved case!

After figuring out these many joints, Li Mi inevitably became worried, he had to let Jian Dingyong reopen Zhang's case before the news spread, otherwise it would be too late!

Although Jian Dingyong did not reopen the case, he could still secretly investigate the murderer, but in the end, he could only let the Zhang family abuse lynching to take revenge.

On this point, his position is consistent with Yuan Keli, although this dynasty is still not a law, it can only be regarded as a king's law, but it is always good to have a law to follow.

Although this set of royal laws is not scientific and objective, and does not represent the interests of the vast majority of the people, but the interests of the ruling class, it still has merits, and it is applicable to this dynastic background, so people should abide by it, otherwise the world will be in chaos!

Besides, after the news spread, Lu Chongning, who was already devastated, will definitely bear greater pressure from public opinion, and must justifiably return Zhang's innocence.

And if you want to reopen this case, the problem is back to square one, that is, to find an authority person who can be used as a handwriting identification!

"You guys go out and check where the source of the news is!" After Li Mi clarified his thoughts, he instructed Qingque'er and the others.

Qingque'er and the others did not hesitate, and before going out, Li Mi solemnly admonished.

"If you encounter danger, stop the investigation, and don't get into danger for a little news!"

Li Mi's reminder was really heartwarming, but Qingque'er and Jiu Bucket and the others all laughed, if they were really so brainless, they would have died in the tooth line a long time ago, when it comes to oiling the soles of their feet, who can compare to them!

Li Mi got their affirmative smiles, so he was relieved, and he didn't bother to eat breakfast, and hurried to Yuan Keli's mansion.

Yuan Keli is a well-known Qingtian detective in Suzhou City, and it is not difficult to find a place to live.

It's just that Li Mi was wearing coarse cloth clothes and strange big scalp shoes, and when Menzi heard that he wanted to see Yuan Keli, he asked him for a post.

Li Mi has never made an appointment with Yuan Keli, where are there any posts, the doormen in the concierge are all dog-eyed and low-looking, and they are not sure what Li Mi is coming from.

Fortunately, Li Mi is a knower, stuffed a few pieces of silver, and the man happily went in to report.

Yuan Keli is no longer an official, but he has an obsession with crimes, otherwise how could the Zhang family ask Yuan Keli to help them investigate the murderer.

Since Yuan Keli is also a detective, then he should have a kind of sympathy for Li Mi, after all, Li Mi also found the file, and in terms of criminal investigation, he is not weaker than Yuan Keli.

Sure enough, not long after Menzi entered, he walked out with apologies and trepidation, his face was full of embarrassment, and he couldn't figure out why this strangely dressed young man was favored by the world-famous Lord Yuan.

Yuan Keli was dressed lightly and widely, and was reading in the pavilion, when he saw Li Mi coming in, he put down the scroll and said to Li Mi.

"The kids wake up so early..."

Li Mi heard that Yuan Keli's words were a little meaningful, and he couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved, thinking that this Yuan Yuan Yuan was not idle, and he should have also received the rumors, which showed that he was still paying attention to Zhang's case.

Since he, like Li Mi, is obsessed with investigating the case, it is certain that although he does not agree with the Zhang family's approach, he will not let go of this case easily.

And now that he has rejected Xie Yingluo, he no longer investigates the case for the Zhang family, and what he says is the water that is spilled, and if he wants to investigate, he can only borrow Li Mi's hand, so Li Mi can be sure that Yuan Keli will definitely help him!

If Yuan Keli knew that Li Mi only relied on his meaningful greetings, he would have guessed his thoughts, but he was afraid that he would look at Li Mi even more differently.

Li Mi was not verbose, and said to Yuan Keli: "Lord Yuan got up early to read, which is also admirable. ”

Yuan Keli pointed to the stone bench in the pavilion, Li Mi hugged his fists, and sat down, although he was anxious, he didn't take the initiative to talk about it.

Yuan Keli pushed the tray on the table over, and said to Li Mi: "Yuan's appetite is not very good, it's all light food, if the children don't dislike it, let's eat some." ”

Li Mi was not polite to him, he already had the intention to befriend Yuan Keli, so he naturally wanted to show sincerity, too twisted, but disrespectful to Yuan Keli.

"You're welcome to do that..."

Li Mi didn't see it, he drank millet porridge and chewed the pickles crunchyly, and Yuan Keli laughed when he saw it.

"It's good to be young..."

Yuan Keli was in the prime of life at this time, but the frustration of officialdom also made him feel vicissitudes, and his words and deeds were full of a dull twilight.

Li Mi swept away the food on the table, and said to Yuan Keli with satisfaction: "Lord Yuan, don't blame the juniors for being abrupt, there are still a lot of things to be busy today, it's not okay to be hungry..."

Yuan Keli saw that Li Mi was like this, and he also smiled, and said to him: "You are a spirit, you can rest assured, although Yuan has no power and power, but the gentleman is quick to speak, and what he said still counts, since he has finished eating, let's go." ”

Li Mi couldn't help but smile and thanked Yuan Keli: "Then thank you Lord Yuan for your help!" ”
