Master Tian pulled Wang Xiancheng aside and whispered: "This search and arrest operation should not be a difficult thing, but so far the thieves have not been captured, I will think about the arrest before and after, and found that there are many suspicious points, I will say it in detail for the county, if there is anything wrong, please forgive the county." ”

Wang Xiancheng looked at him suspiciously, and said in a deep voice, "Please speak." ”

Master Tian looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so he said to Wang Xiancheng: "Lord County, from the current situation, those two thieves must have stayed in Xianyan Town yesterday night, and it was because of our search that they had to flee in embarrassment. It stands to reason that it should not be difficult to find these two thieves in this small town, but it turns out that we always make mistakes, and in one night, there were many unexpected situations, which finally caused the two thieves to escape from the town, and it became extremely difficult to arrest them. If you put aside the reason why those two thieves are strong in martial arts and come and go without a trace, then another reason is probably that there are people in this town who are their internal responses, and even this internal response is in our search team. ”

Wang Xiancheng's eyes flickered, and he said hesitantly: "Master Tian, is there any evidence for this matter?" ”

Master Tian smiled bitterly: "There is no evidence, this is just my guess." Imagine, my lord, according to our plan, all the people who catch the people are searched in different areas, leaving no dead ends, this thief should definitely be found in an inn, a green building, or a people's house in the middle of the night, but the actual situation is that Liu Zhutou is on the edge of the town, and occasionally sees them about to escape from the town, and they are wearing Minzhuang clothes, which means that they may have knocked out two Minzhuang and changed their clothes, or they have their internal response in the town, which provides convenience for them. Another doubt, why did Zhang Zhutou and Wang Zhutou squeeze into the Sanjiang Dart Bureau at the same time? Zhang Zhutou said that it was because there was a Minzhuang who reported to him, saying that there was a strange situation in the Sanjiang Dart Bureau, and he rushed to come, and afterwards we asked him to find this messenger again but there was no trace, there are only two possibilities, one is that Zhang Zhutou lied, there was no reporter at all, and all these things he had were just to create an incident, divert everyone's attention, and let the thieves take the opportunity to escape; The second possibility is that there was indeed a messenger, and this person was hiding in the town, having an affair with the Japanese robbers, and seeing that something was not good, he jumped out and intended to cause trouble. Also, the water incident of Taibaiju Restaurant is also quite strange, why not out early, not out late, but at that time the fire started, everyone's attention just left from the dispute between the two arresters, and put into the firefighting, the occurrence of these two things, directly led to the disconnection of several search and arrest work, and there was also some chaos, and when Liu Zhutou finally found the Japanese Kou, it was not long after these two incidents happened, my lord, is there not the slightest connection? ”

"Sizzle......" Wang Xiancheng took a breath like a toothache, some things really can't stand scrutiny, and the more scrutiny, the more suspicious they become.

"Then who do you say has the most doubts?" Wang Xiancheng asked tentatively.

First, during the search, he left his post without authorization and went to Wang Zhutou's area to search, although he said that he received a report from an informant, but in the end he could not produce evidence; Second, when Liu Zhutou blocked the thief to the Land Temple, he was the first to arrive, and then had a disagreement with Liu Zhutou, which led to the escape of the thief in the end. In several major events tonight, there is the shadow of Zhang Zhutou, and of course, Wang Zhutou is not all undoubted. Among all the people, there must be no doubt about Liu Zhutou, what does the county think? ”

"And ...... we should we?" Wang Xiancheng asked hesitantly.

"I think the most important thing to do now is to let Zhang Zhutou and Wang Zhutou lead his men to leave this place immediately, if any of them are traitors, then their search is likely to take advantage of their position to open the door to the enemy, and it is certain that the enemy will abscond. Therefore, we should immediately eliminate this hidden danger and leave the task of searching for the Japanese to someone who trusts us. Of course, it is too arbitrary to say that these two catchers have problems, after all, there is no evidence, we can transfer them back first, let them maintain order in the town on the one hand, and on the other hand search for other people in the town who have slipped through the net, and then we can find a few henchmen, and secretly release some rumors, just say that the county Cheng found that there is a traitor in the team and is strictly investigating, the traitor will definitely be weak-hearted, and will be anxious to erase the traces of his previous actions, what we need to do is to monitor the key person, not afraid of him moving, just afraid that he will not move, as long as he has action, he is not afraid that he will show his feet, what do adults think? Master Tian suggested.

Wang Xiancheng nodded, and said with some hesitation: "If there is really a traitor, will you startle the snake?" ”

Master Tian smiled confidently: "We just have to startle the snake, otherwise how can we catch the evidence." ”

Wang Xiancheng made up his mind, so he called his personal guard Jiang Sanshan over, leaned down and said a few words to him, and then summoned Zhang Zhutou and Wang Zhutou back from the search, and said to them: "The matter of searching for the Japanese Invaders is fully responsible for Liu Zhutou here, and the two of you will return to the town immediately, Zhang Zhutou, you and Sanshan together, carefully check whether there are any remnants of the Japanese Invaders in the town, if you find it, immediately arrest and bring it to justice, Wang Zhutou, you take your subordinates to maintain order in the town, in case someone takes the opportunity to make trouble." ”

Although the two catchers were surprised that the county had asked them to give up the pursuit of the Japanese Kou, they did not say anything, arched their hands, and each took the order.

"Master Tian, do you think there is a problem with this Sanjiang Dart Game? Why do I always feel that something is wrong? Wang Xiancheng turned back to Master Tian and said.

"Sanjiang Dart Bureau, it seems that there is not much suspicion at present, but I feel that there is no big mistake in observing and observing, and I will immediately arrange for people to monitor them, please rest assured." Master Tian said.

****************************************************

At dawn, the residents of the town got up one after another, but they found that today was different from the past, because there were people and catchers wandering around the town, no matter who was walking on the street, someone would always stop them and ask a few questions, some of them looked vicious, and their attitude was rude, which really made people wonder if this was a person or a thief, so many people were afraid of getting into trouble and turned back to their homes directly, hiding at home, and ended up quiet.

There are many stalls selling breakfast in the town as usual, but they have been set up for a long time, but they don't see a guest coming, some of the people who come are mostly outsiders, they feel that they are serving the country, they have worked hard all night, their stomachs are empty, but the government has not arranged to eat, and they are resentful, so they deliberately do something out of the ordinary, such as taking a few steamed buns from this house, taking a few pieces of oil cakes from that house, just not giving money, those stall owners negotiated a few words, but they were shocked by their vicious words, flashed their arms and rolled up their sleeves, and looked like they were about to fight, and they were startled with the idea that they couldn't afford to fight and could hide. One by one, they withdrew their stalls and went back to sulk.

But said that this Zhang Zhutou and Wang Zhutou, the two of them did not buy each other when they were in the county office, and they were suspicious, and they were doing things in Xianyan Town today, and they didn't want to bump into each other again, and the conflict in the middle of the night made both parties hold back their stomachs, although they were reprimanded by the county, but they were still dissatisfied in their hearts. They didn't know the purpose of the county Cheng sending the two back to the town, and they thought that they were really asking them to maintain law and order and investigate the remnants of the Japanese invaders, so the two of them went their own way, and when they met on the road, they both raised their heads and snorted to show their contempt.

This Wang Zhutou walked around the town twice, and saw that there were no pedestrians on the street, the so-called maintenance of order in the town became a joke, there were no people, how could it be maintained? He carried a waist knife and walked down the street staggeringly, after all, he had been chasing and tossing around all night, and at this time he was sleepy and a little depressed.

Suddenly, one of his subordinates hurried over, pulled Wang Zhutou to a secluded place, leaned down and whispered in Wang Zhutou's ear: "Zhutou, when the brothers were on the street just now, they heard some gossip, which is related to the headcatcher, and the brothers feel that they must report to the head catcher in time, and hope that the head catcher will make a decision as soon as possible." ”

"What?" Wang Zhutou asked in surprise.

"Some people say that the reason why the Japanese robbers escaped last night was because there was a mole in the town, and this traitor is likely to be between us and Minzhuang, and now the county is strictly investigating, it is said that it is said that ......" The subordinates looked up at Wang Zhutou, gritted their teeth and said: "It is said that they suspect you, saying that the dispute between you and Zhang Zhutou yesterday is to create a chance for the Japanese to escape." ”

"Smack." This Minzhuang was slapped on his face, and he saw Wang Zhutou's eyes wide with anger, his face was red with anger, and his whole body seemed to be trembling. He pointed at this Minzhuang and scolded: "It's just nonsense, the old man is doing right and walking properly, who is arranging with me like this?" Call me a bandit, I'm going to skin him alive. ”

The Minzhuang covered his face and looked at Wang Zhutou fearfully: "Zhutou, I didn't make this rumor, I kindly told you, why are you still beating people?" I wonder if this is a rumor made by Zhang Zhutou, after all, he has always been at odds with you, and last night you made a big fuss, and hurt a few people, and when you had a grievance in your heart, you deliberately splashed you with dirty water. ”

"Well, it must be." Wang Zhutou nodded, looked at the person in front of him, quickly took out some broken silver from his pocket, stuffed it into this person's hand, and said apologetically: "Brother, I was angry for my brother just now, but I didn't really want to beat you, this crime of banditry is terrible, that is to kill the head, you can take this silver tael to buy wine and drink, thank you for telling me these things, you go back, help me pay attention to a little bit of Zhang Zhutou's movements, if there is anything wrong, please report it to me in time." ”

"Okay, okay." Minzhuang held the broken silver in his hand, although his face was still in hot pain, but he smiled happily, feeling that it was not a loss to get so much money in exchange for a slap.

"Zhang Guilin, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unrighteous." Wang Zhutou gritted his teeth and said viciously.
