Chapter forty-six, this Shen Mu is very suspicious
After Shen Mu left the county jail, Liang Baihu did not go to the prison again, but returned to the humble post house in Taiping County to rest.
Under the leadership of Master Liu, the Jinyi lieutenant, who looked similar to the dead Tsing Yi Jinyi Guard, took a few people to the place where the corpses were placed, and inspected the corpses of the Tsing Yi Jinyi Guards and the bodies of several black-clothed people.
Not only that, after looking at those corpses, this Han Zongqi also went to the forest where his cousin's body was found.
Less than two days later, there are still traces of the fight in the woods, and the branches and grass branches that were cut by the sword have dried up, but it is still vaguely visible that the fight was fierce at that time.
Han Zongqi also looked at the other items left behind by his cousin, and there seemed to be nothing wrong, but he felt that something was missing.
What's missing?
This feeling is weird, since their Han family moved to Nanjing, they have been working in the Jinyi Guard here in Nanjing for generations, half a month ago, my cousin just said that there was something to go out, who knew that he would die in this Taiping County.
Thinking of home, my uncles and aunts, as well as my cousins and nephews, had a glimmer of hope before I came, but now, my hope is completely shattered.
His cousin is three years older than him, they have had a good relationship since they were children, and they are not much different from their own brothers, at this moment he is full of hatred in his heart, and he just wants to find out the mastermind behind those men in black as soon as possible and avenge his cousin.
Therefore, he will not let go of any suspicions related to his cousin's death, especially the kid surnamed Shen.
"My lord, my subordinates always think that Shen Mu's appearance in the woods is a little suspicious?"
Although he didn't see the scene of the confrontation between Lord Baihu and Shen Mu in the county government prison later today, he also heard the detailed process from his companions.
His first reaction was: This Shen Mu is not simple.
Thinking about it, Han Lin, as a confidant of the Lord of the Hundred Households, has to be careful when talking to the Lord of the Hundred Households on weekdays, but this Shen Mu is just the son of a ruffian leader in a small county town, and he has never been out of this small county town since he was a child.
But who gave him such courage to dare to talk to the Lord of Baihu like this, unless this kid had something to rely on.
What's even more suspicious is that before this Shen Mu found the corpses of his eldest brother and those black-clothed people, he had also appeared in this forest.
This didn't seem to be a problem, but the process of the men in black killing each other made him suspicious.
He didn't believe that the only one who was still alive would do something to his companion for no reason.
After he heard the general story from Master Liu's mouth, he also found the honest and stupid young man called Niu Dan, which further confirmed from this young man's mouth that Shen Mu didn't seem to be lying.
But his intuition told him that there were many strange things in this.
For their Jinyiwei, sometimes they would rather kill by mistake than let go.
"Oh? Where is the suspicion? Liang Baihu turned the two iron balls in his hand, and when he heard the words, he stopped the movement in his hand and asked with his eyes.
"This Shen Mu's behavior of returning to the woods to find some talisman is extremely suspicious in itself, and those few men in black killing each other in the woods are even more suspicious!"
"What Mr. Han means is, then Shen Mu lost the talisman he had brought with him since he was a child, shouldn't he go back to look for it?
Those few men in black shouldn't kill each other, after meeting Shen Mu and a few of their teenagers, how many teenagers should be killed as well? ”
Liang Baihu asked sharply.
"This ...... My lord, my subordinates...... No...... That's not what it means. ”
When Han Lin heard this, he hurriedly confessed, at this moment, he suddenly realized that he had made a mistake, probably stimulated by his cousin's death, which made him lose his usual caution.
The officials of the entire Taiping County could sense the Lord of the Hundred Households' desire to defend Shen Mu, but he thought that the other party's behavior was very suspicious, which was clearly a slap in the face of the Lord of the Hundred Households.
Could it be that Shen Mu, this kid, has some relationship with the Lord of the Hundred Households, so that he is maintained like this?
"You don't have to be like this, I know that Han Jing's death makes you, a younger brother, very sad, and naturally wants to find the murderer as soon as possible and avenge your brother, but this is not the case with this hundred households.
Although Han Jing has not followed this hundred households in the past few years, in the past, we were also brothers who had a good relationship, but now, he was killed by thieves, how could I, the eldest brother, not want to avenge him.
But if you set your eyes on that Shen Mu, I'm afraid that you will go astray, that Shen Mu grew up in this place since he was a child, and I believe that the local spies have already reported his detailed information.
Such a young man, who has not even practiced martial arts, and was clamoring to go to the academy two days ago, do you think he has the ability to be qualified to participate in such a big event as the killing of your cousin? ”
"What the adults said is that their subordinates are thinking badly."
"I know you have a lot of suspicions, but you should know that, you will know after all; You shouldn't know that, and you don't have to think about it now. ”
"Yes, my subordinates understand!" Han Lin also understood, there were indeed some things about Shen Mu that the Hundred Households could not say clearly.
Thinking that it was dark last night, Ye Qianhu suddenly urgently recruited hundreds of adults to his mansion, is it related to this matter?
He didn't dare to think further.
In order to further explore the relationship here, he spoke again: "My lord, my subordinates still have doubts, that is, the bet between the adult and Shen Mu, does the adult really believe that Shen Youqi is not a murder suspect?"
What if Shen Mu found nothing in the end? ”
Although he felt that this Shen Mu was not simple and a little suspicious, in his heart, he still didn't believe that Shen Mu, a boy who was only fifteen years old, had the ability to find out the murderer.
If a little hairy child can find out such a big case, then why do you need the arrest of the Criminal Department or the gold medal agents of the Jinyi Guard?
"Nothing? Oh, since you bet, you have to bear the consequences, don't you?
However, don't you think that so many things have happened in Taiping County recently, but we Jinyiwei don't know about it, and it's all our dereliction of duty?
And this hundred households will never allow anyone to break ground on our Jinyiwei's head, and now that someone has done it, let's wait to taste our Jinyiwei's methods.
As for that Shen Mu, if he didn't disappoint Ben Baihu in the end, why not recruit him into our Jinyiwei, it's just one more person to eat. ”
Shen Mu guessed that the brocade guard should react to his cloth game, but now he was showing off his cooking skills in a hurry.
Although the cauldron with firewood under this is not easy to control, the ingredients stored in the Mei family's kitchen are really rich, and some standing seasonings are also available.
Xia Patrol Prosecutor looked at Shen Mu very skillfully knife work, and glanced at each other, didn't this kid say that he hadn't cooked before, it didn't look like this.
About half an hour later, Shen Mu made a few dishes with good color and aroma.
After dividing some of the prepared meals and leaving them for the three of them to go down to the tunnel, all the other meals were served on the table.
Shen Mu's cooking is still light.
Xia Patrol They saw that the food was selling well, but they didn't hesitate, so they started to use their chopsticks, and the appetite of several people was greatly improved.
After a few people had eaten, they sat in the pavilion and rested for a while, and the big tigers who went down the tunnel finally came out of the tunnel.
After seeing Shen Mu, Dahu didn't care about wiping the dust on his body, so he spoke: "Brother Mu, do you know where this tunnel leads?" ”
