Wu Ling'er immediately retracted her legs and looked at Xu Gang: "Brother Xu, it seems that something happened?" ”
"Well, you stay in the room, I'll go out and have a look." Xu Gang frowned, got up and walked out.
"With such a loud noise, why didn't anyone come out to see it?" Standing in the quiet courtyard, Xu Gang walked in the direction of the sound just now, and didn't go far before he saw a man lying on the edge of the flowers, the side was full of blood, and the back of his chest seemed to be undulating.
"And gas!" Xu Gang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly rushed over and turned the man over slightly, only to see that he had a short sword inserted in his stomach, and the hilt of the sword was inserted into his body.
Xu Gang quickly clicked on him a few times, sealed a few big holes, and then a true qi hit his body, and then he took a closer look at the appearance of this man, the man was about forty years old, dressed richly, looked like a businessman, and his face was extremely pale at the moment.
Xu Gang injected a lot of true qi for the middle-aged man, but he still didn't wake up, he had more air out and less air intake, and slowly his qi was gone.
"Hey, I lost too much blood to save ......" Xu Gang sighed secretly, slowly stood up, and prepared to report to the innkeeper to deal with it.
As soon as Xu Gang stood up, a lot of firelight suddenly appeared around him, and then many red-clothed catchers rushed in from all directions, holding knives in one hand, torches in the other, and bows and arrows.
"Bold thief, don't be caught yet!" The person who spoke was wearing a fiery red trapping suit, but a large blue spider stripe belt was tied around his waist, and he was burly, and his right hand gently supported the handle of the long knife hanging behind his waist.
When he heard this, Xu Gang's eyes closed slightly, his brows were tightly locked, and he smelled a conspiracy in his nose!
"Brother Xu, what's wrong?" Wu Ling'er saw the fiery red light in the courtyard and heard the red-clothed catcher shouting, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, so she rushed out of the room and stood next to Xu Gang.
"There are still comrades, all of them will be arrested for me!" The burly catcher closed his eyes slightly, pointed at Xu Gang and the others with his big hand, and gave an order to the surrounding catchers.
Xu Gang calmly looked at the catchers who were slowly surrounding him, and said lightly: "This catcher, this person was not killed by me, when I came out of the room, he was killed and thrown from the upper floor." With that, Xu Gang pointed to the guest room on the second floor behind him.
"Oh?" The burly catcher quickly pricked up his arms, suspended the round-up of Xu Gang, glanced at him suspiciously, then looked upstairs, and ordered a few catchers to go up and have a look.
"Zhou Zhutou, there is no one on it, and the windows of every room have been locked from the room." Soon the captor who went upstairs to search was coming back.
It turned out that the burly catcher was the head catcher, but I saw him holding his chest with both hands, looking at Xu Gang with his head tilted, and said lightly: "What else do you have to say?" ”
"Bold, do you know that he is a ...... of Luzhou" Wu Ling'er wanted to tell these catchers, but when Xu Gang was the governor of Luzhou, he was interrupted by Xu Gang.
"Ling'er!" Xu Gang shouted softly, and then shook his head at her, he wanted to see what kind of place Jiang'an County Ya was, so he said to Zhou Zhutou: "I didn't kill us, but we will go back with you and cooperate with your investigation." ”
"Take it away!" Zhou Zhutou shouted, then glanced at Wu Ling'er, his eyebrows trembled slightly, he really didn't expect this trip to be so smooth, the thief didn't resist at all.
He had been resting in the back hall of the county government before, and suddenly received a report that there had been a murder in this inn, so he gathered a large number of arresters, hurried over, and happened to see Xu Gang squatting next to the body of the deceased.
After Xu Gang and the others were taken away, Zhou Zhutou invited the innkeeper and the guest in the room opposite Xu Gang back to the yamen to assist in handling the case.
"Zhou Zhutou ......" As soon as Zhou Zhutou returned to his residence, he saw a man in black standing at the door, with a slender figure and a black cloth covering his face, revealing only two eyes.
"Who! …… It turned out to be Commander Zhao, please speak in the house! Zhou Zhutou was about to draw his knife, and suddenly heard his voice, and hurriedly bowed respectfully, but kept muttering in his heart: How can the people of the Imperial City Division dress like thieves now, if the token is not real, it would be strange if you were not arrested......
"Zhou Zhutou, have you caught it?" As soon as Commander Zhao sat down, he asked.
After Zhou Zhutou served tea to Commander Zhao, he said with a smile: "Back to Commander Zhao, the people have already been arrested and returned to the Yamen, but I feel that this case is full of suspicions......
"Could it be that there will still be suspicious points in the case handled by our Imperial City Division?" Commander Zhao took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Since the debut of this husband and wife thief this year, under the pretext of robbing the rich and helping the poor, they have killed people everywhere and set fires, and only a small part of the money they have robbed has been given to the poor, and most of them have been kept by themselves!" Our men have been tracking them down for a long time, and they have finally found this place! ”
Commander Zhao paused slightly, and continued: "If it weren't for the fact that our Imperial City Division needed to hide our identity, we would have taken action ourselves. Now give the credit to you, and then you will have so many questions about where they came from! ”
"The little one doesn't dare, since Commander Zhao has investigated clearly, can you please provide the evidence of this case to the little one? The little one will report to the county lord tomorrow, and he will be tried in the court, and the person who committed the adulterer will be brought to justice. Zhou Zhutou hurriedly lowered his mistake and then softly asked Commander Zhao for evidence.
Commander Zhao raised his eyebrows, glanced at Zhou Zhutou indifferently, and then took out a large stack of rice paper full of words from his arms and said: "These are the notices of the local government wanted them, this is the confession of the male thief Xu Gang after he was arrested in Gucheng County, but unfortunately he was later rescued by the female thief in prison, hey!" ”
Zhou Zhutou looked at it one by one, and saw that the portraits on the wanted notice were indeed the two people arrested today, and the notice was also stamped with an image, which did not seem to be a fraud, Zhou Zhutou slowly believed Commander Zhao's words.
"In addition, this matter is related to the Imperial City Division, so you can't make any extraneous branches, you can't tell others, not even the county order! Okay, you go and arrange it, tonight, the people of our Imperial City Division will personally judge, and after verifying the identity of the thief, they will correct the law on the spot! After Commander Zhao finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and began to drink tea.
"This ......" Zhou Zhutou was full of doubts, according to the laws of the imperial court, so the condemned prisoners had to report to the Criminal Division, and then report to the imperial court for review before the death penalty could be executed.
"What's wrong?" Commander Zhao glanced at Zhou Zhu's head, his tone was calm and tepid, but it revealed an unquestionable majesty.
"Commander Zhao, isn't this a bit unruly? The laws of the imperial court are ......" Zhou Zhutou had just said a few words, but was interrupted by Commander Zhao. (To be continued.) )
