Chapter 37: Catching the Bait

Hearing that Zhang Zhutou's body was found, Wang Xiancheng couldn't help but perk up, and then wondered, Zhang Guilin had successfully escaped from prison, it stands to reason that he should have gone away a long time ago, why did he die in the west of the city now? This is unreasonable, so I'm afraid this is not Zhang Guilin's body.

But anyway, it's better to take a look and be sure.

In the west of Luofeng County, there are many merchants who live, in order to prevent theft, most of the houses are built relatively tall, and the walls are higher than other places, because there are many rich people here, and the roads are also built wider and smoother than other places, these merchants generally hire samurai guards in order to prevent their property from being stolen or robbed, and this area has always had good public security, and there has been no public security incident.

Today, when the people Zhuang Xiangyong searched for the Japanese Kou, they did not have much hope in this place, but after a person searched a business, he was a little urgent, so he walked to a remote sewer ditch to prepare for convenience, and suddenly saw a black place behind the bushes, a little strange, walked forward, only to find that it was actually a dead body, startled, everyone came to debate, as if it was Zhang Zhutou said in the text, and quickly reported to the county.

After a pillar of incense, Wang Xiancheng led everyone to the scene of the incident.

"Report to the county, after debate, this person is the fugitive Zhang Guilin, who is now dead, the time of death is about midnight and midnight, the cause of death is that he was stabbed in the back with a knife, the murder weapon is seven inches and three minutes long, it should be a sharp dagger." After inspecting the body, he respectfully reported to the county.

"Is it really Zhang Guilin? What makes sense? Wang Xiancheng stroked his beard with his hand and groaned.

"County Cheng, the cause of Zhang Guilin's death is clear, although there are some other wounds on his body, most of them are abrasions, scratches, and fatal wounds are only here. But please see, the wound of the deceased is behind him, and the expression on the face of the deceased is very peculiar, full of surprise, doubt and shock, we infer that the deceased and the murderer should know, it was the murderer who took advantage of the deceased's unpreparedness to poison the hand, from the scene of the inspection, this is indeed the scene of the murder, not the removal of the body, but after we carefully examined, we found no traces of the fight, so it can be inferred that the deceased and the murderer are acquaintances. He continued.

"Acquaintances? Who wants Zhang Guilin to die? Zhang Guilin has successfully escaped from prison, he should be with the Japanese Invaders, and then go incognito and leave the country, could he have been killed by the Widows? Why did the Wako kill him? No, he finally escaped with the black hunter, then, the murderer may be the black hunter, yes, this makes sense, after the two of them escaped from prison, first for personal revenge, broke into Wang Zhutou's house, killed Wang Zhutou's family of four, and was about to flee, we blocked the way out, they could only use the fire, jumped out of the wall, and escaped, this must be the place where they and the Japanese agreed to meet, because of the disagreement, the black orion took the opportunity to kill Zhang Guilin, and then fled with other Japanese invaders. Yes, it must be true! Wang Xiancheng struck his right fist to his left palm, and said excitedly.

"Then we should quickly arrest the black hunters, and then the truth will be revealed." Jiang Sanshan Road.

"Yes, the whole city is searching for the Japanese and the black hunters, and you can't let go of the slightest clue, and warn everyone to be careful, these people are armed with weapons and are extremely dangerous." Wang County Cheng Road.

"Yes." Sanshan took the order and left.

Things are getting more and more complicated, Wang Xiancheng looked up at the blue sky, there were white clouds floating in the sky, and the blue sky was even bluer, last night's sultry heat thought that there would be a heavy rain today, but now, there is no sign of rain, it is better not to rain, Wang Xiancheng thought to himself, if it rains, it will cause greater difficulties in the pursuit, and the rain will also hide more traces of criminals, as an official responsible for managing local security, Wang Xiancheng's greatest wish is to bring the criminals to justice as soon as possible.

Where will the hunters flee? Will you lurk in the city and wait for your chance, or will you flee to the mountains to fish back to the sea, or will you follow the Japanese to a foreign land? Each one is possible, but there are no clues.

Clue clues, what I need now is clues. Wang Xiancheng roared in a low voice.

"My lord, we received a clue, I don't know if it will be useful to adults?" A strong man stepped forward.

"Tell me." County Cheng Road.

"This black hunter has a grandson, on weekdays, their grandfather and grandson depend on each other, the last time we caught the black orion, the county lord had ordered the villain to send a letter to his grandson, I don't know if the adult remembers?" Minzhuang Road.

"Yes, there is this, I remember, are you saying that the black hunter will definitely go back to pick up his grandson, so that we can set up an ambush on the spot, use his grandson, lead him into the encirclement, and capture him in one fell swoop? Right, right, or not? Wang Xiancheng said excitedly.

"Your Excellency is wise." Min Zhuang said with a dry smile.

"Okay, Sanshan, you quickly lead a group of people to ambush near Wu Orion's house, use his grandson as bait, and capture Wu Orion." Wang Xiancheng immediately assigned the task.

"Cough, cough, adult, villain still has something to report, the grandson of the Wu Orion is not at home now, but in the Xianyan Academy." Min Zhuang reported with some fear.

Bang, Wang Zhutou stepped forward and kicked this Minzhuang's ass, and said angrily: "If you have something to say together, you can put a fart together, let you say a word, but you are divided into several sections, you think you are talking about books and performing arts, saying, why is that little guy in the academy now?" ”

"My lord's forgiveness, this black hunter's grandson somehow has a good relationship with a small guy in the academy, in the days when the black hunter was arrested, he has been eating and living with this little house, and this little guy takes care of him, so if the adult wants to capture this little hunter, he can only go to the academy." Catch said a little nervously.

"God help me, this black hunter must not know that his grandson lives in the academy, must have thought that it was stored in the last Orion's house, Sanshan, now you arrange two classes of people, one group rushed to Orion's house, if you see the black hunter, immediately catch it on the spot, and the other group will be led by you, quickly chase to the academy, be sure to find them before the black hunter finds the little hunter, and then set up the bait, hehe, let's catch this cunning big mullet together. Hahaha" Wang Xiancheng seemed to see the dawn of victory, and couldn't help but lift his spirits, and even made a joke.

"Yes." Jiang Sanshan clenched his fists, turned around and ordered some catchers and people's strong, and hurriedly ran towards Xianyan Town.

The county seat is more than ten miles away from Xianyan Town, there are three or five horses in the county yali, but that is the county order and the post station, the general catch fast or officials are not qualified to ride, Jiangnan Water Town, most of them are paddy fields and rivers, and there is no way to ride fast horses, when the county commander has something, most of them are sedan chairs, so Jiang Sanshan and his subordinates can only rely on two legs to go to Xianyan Town, more than ten miles away, under Jiang Sanshan's repeated urging, everyone also walked for nearly an hour, when they came to the gate of the academy, they all had crooked armor and were embarrassed, Many people even took off their shirts, wrapped around their waists, and were shirtless, like scoundrels in the market.

Hearing that there was a group of officials who did not look like officials and bandits who did not look like bandits in the academy, many professors and students squeezed out to watch the excitement and pointed at them, Jiang Sanshan looked back, his face couldn't help but be hot, and he yelled: "Give me more energy, tidy up your appearance, we are officers and soldiers, don't look like a ruffian and hooligan." ”

The crowd agreed in a hurry, and then hurriedly sorted out their clothes, and after packing up, Sanshan led everyone into the gate of the academy.

Song Xu, the dean of the academy, couldn't help but be furious when he heard that some officers and soldiers had broken into the academy, as a standard literati, he had never taken these martial artists in his eyes, and today someone dared to break in without being informed, which made him even more angry, so after hearing the report, he walked over angrily with a few professors.

"Presumptuous, this is the land of scholars, why do you dare to break in privately, one by one with knives and guns, what is the reason, I have to ask him the county commander Zhao Mengyu, who gave him so much power and dared to send people to my academy to spread wild." The dean reprimanded.

"Dean, please forgive me." Jiang Sanshan clenched his fists, and then said with a straight face: "We have received a reliable report that the academy has been mixed with the accomplices of the Japanese Kou, and we are here to arrest them, please take state affairs as the priority, and don't let go of the court felons." ”

"Wolver? Did the Japanese enter the academy? The dean was taken aback.

As the dean, it was impossible for him to search his professor's residence with officers and soldiers, but he could not stop him from doing so, so he had to flick the sleeves of his robe and leave angrily.

Sanshan led everyone to Professor Zhang's residence, only to see that the door was locked, there was no one in the house, and Xiao Buzang was not found, and according to the guidance of the students of the college, Professor Zhang was found.

When Professor Zhang saw these officers and soldiers, he immediately guessed their intentions, but he still calmly asked them about the purpose of coming, as if he didn't know anything about it, and his face was full of smiles.

"We have received a tip-off that the grandson of the Wu Orion, an accomplice of the Japanese Bandits, lives at your place, please hand him over quickly." Jiang Sanshan said to Professor Zhang with a straight face.

"Grandpa is a bad person, what crime did his grandson commit, he is just a four- or five-year-old yellow-mouthed child, and he has no ability to distinguish right from wrong, what is the reason for you to arrest him?" Professor Zhang still has a smile on his face.

"Professor, the Japanese are the target of my key attack, and the bandit will be beheaded by the whole family, even if he is a child, he will not be spared, and please tell us the whereabouts of the little hunter, so as not to affect his future." Jiang Sanshan said gloomily.

"I see. Taught. Professor Zhang smiled playfully, and then said, "This morning, this kid said that he wanted to eat breakfast on the street, so I gave him a few copper coins, and he has not come back yet, and I don't know where he went!" Please forgive me. ”

"On the street? Let's go, let's search. Jiang Sanshan waved his hand and led people away.

"This official, please stay." At this time, a child came out of the crowd, it was Wang Yong, he knew Jiang Sanshan, these Sanshan had accompanied the county Cheng to his house many times, and he was also somewhat familiar with him, but at this time, Wang Yong pretended not to know him, and gave Jiang Sanshan a salute: "Official, this morning, the grandson of the hunter is not on the street now, this morning, I have a classmate who saw Professor Zhang's little pot with the little hunter up the back mountain, in a hurry, it seems to be running away from something, I don't know if this news is useful to the official?" ”

"The two of them ran back into the mountains, where did they go?" Jiang Sanshan was overjoyed, stepped forward and grabbed Wang Yong's arm, and asked excitedly.

"After going up the back mountain, they turned northwest and went to the northwest, and I really don't know what the purpose is." Wang Yong replied with a smile on his face, ignoring Professor Zhang's anxious glance at him, and seeing that he turned a blind eye, his expression turned into extreme anger.

"Brothers, follow me." Jiang Sanshan turned around and shouted at everyone, and hurriedly ran towards the back mountain.

Wang Yong looked proudly at the fast catcher who ran away, a glimmer of light flashed in the corners of his eyes, a sneer pulled up at the corner of his mouth, and he said secretly in his heart: "Little pot, this is enough for you to drink a pot!" Let you be ruthless, make you crazy, now see how long can you be proud? ”
