Chapter 37: Interrogation
The sky was gray and bright, and the Zhang family had returned to its former peace.
Zhang Mu stood on top of the ruins of Tinghe Xuan with his hands behind his back, watching the lingering smoke floating and spreading in the air, and then thinking about the fierce battle here last night, in a trance, it was like a dream, just the scars on his hands were painful, telling him that it was all true.
I have to admit that Zhang Chi is indeed a character, Yan Su, Han Fangshan, and Tao Xingchang were almost folded in his hands, and their martial arts were superb, exceeding everyone's expectations.
It's not just him, even the brothers under him are not waiting for idle goods, in such a trapped beast situation, he still killed two Jinyi guards, if it wasn't for Zhang Chi being caught, I'm afraid the consequences would be really unimaginable, and I feel a chill down my back when I think about it.
Now that the manservant in the mansion has gone back to rest, Zhang Mu specially instructed not to tell outsiders what they saw last night.
Fortunately, these servants saw more than a dozen corpses, and even fools understood how evil things were, so who dared to go out and talk nonsense, for fear that if others asked, they all said in unison that it was a fire.
Although the old patriarch was suspicious, he didn't ask Zhang Mu, judging from his experience, if he could say this, Zhang Mu would definitely tell him, if Zhang Mu didn't say it, it meant that he shouldn't know.
Things that shouldn't be known, shouldn't be asked, after all, there are more than a dozen corpses placed there, and it is terrifying to look at, he knows that this matter is definitely not as simple as Zhang Chi's revenge on Zhang Mu.
"Zhang Mu, I have already written a letter to my family, and sent Songwen to Yifeng Township to deliver the letter. My grandfather knows that he will definitely send someone from the village over, don't worry. At this time, Yan Su appeared behind Zhang Mu and said.
Zhang Mu looked back at her with a haggard face, her hands were wrapped in gauze, and there was a bruise on her fair face, which should have been left by Zhang Chi's struggle when he finally subdued Zhang Chi.
"Is your injury in the way?" Zhang Mu reached out and touched her face, looked at her wound with concern, and asked gently.
Yan Suqiao's face flushed, and she hurriedly took a step back and said, "We martial arts students, this bit of skin is nothing. ”
"Thank you Brother Yan for coming to the rescue last night, if you hadn't dragged Zhang Chi, I'm afraid I would have gone to see my father a long time ago." Zhang Mu said with a smile.
"When is it that you still have the kung fu to be poor here? Besides, I promised to protect you, so naturally I want to make a promise. But....... Speaking of this, Yan Su said with a little embarrassment: "I also want to thank you for saving me again last night." ”
"Oh, it's a pity." Zhang Mu grinned.
"What a pity?" Yan Su asked curiously.
"It's a pity that you are a man, otherwise I saved you twice, shouldn't I make a promise to you?" Zhang Mu asked with a smile.
When Yan Su heard this, he glared at Zhang Mu fiercely and said, "Don't talk about these nonsense, for this kind of person who has the good of Longyang, I will see one and fight another." After speaking, he raised his fist, but his heart was full of suspicions, wondering if there was a flaw that he could see?
"Cut." Zhang Mu sneered and said: "Let's go, follow me to Zhang Ao's house, and then go to Yuelai Restaurant to pay errands, there are still more than ten corpses parked in the house, you can't throw them here and wait to rot, right?" You let Wen Guang go and prepare the car. Zhang Mu said with a smile.
After a while, the carriage arrived at the door of Zhang Ao's house, and after getting out of the car, he saw that the door of Zhang Ao's house was empty, and Yan Su pulled out the broken water flow, blocked the front, and gently pushed the door open.
It's just that the yard was silent, and when I crossed the blue brick wall, I saw the blood stains in the yard at the moment.
"Looks like they're all dead." Zhang Mu said this, and strode towards the main house.
The main room was a mess, the blood on the ground had not dried out, and when I walked into the bedroom, I saw Zhang Ao and his wife lying on the bed, blood flowing all over the ground.
Zhang Mu walked over and took a look, Zhang Ao was fatally stabbed in the chest, and his wife was wiped on the neck by a knife, both of them looked painful, obviously dead.
Zhang Mu ripped off his jade pendant from Zhang Ao and said: "This is Zhang Chi who gave him when he was crowned, if he knew that he would die in his hands, I don't know what he would think." ”
"Do you need to report to the police?" Yan Su asked.
"No need, let's go to Yuelai Restaurant first." Then he turned around and went out.
After a while, when I arrived at the door of Yuelai Restaurant, it was already three poles, but the door of Yuelai Restaurant was closed, and the window was still baffled, and there was no movement inside.
"Let's go to the backyard." Zhang Mu said.
The carriage stopped outside the alley in the backyard, Zhang Mu got out of the car and walked to the gate of the backyard, gently buckled the door knocker, and heard someone shouting inside: "The shopkeeper is sick, temporarily closed, and ask the guest officer to go elsewhere." ”
"It's me." Zhang Mu immediately shouted.
At this time, the back door was opened, and Zhang Mu saw that it was a brocade guard last night, with gauze wrapped around his arm, and after seeing Zhang Mu, he hurriedly said, "Come in." ”
Zhang Mu entered the gate, bypassed the carriage and horse room to the backyard, and saw seven or eight people standing on the side of the stone table in the backyard, all with fierce faces, and all of them were fresh faces.
Outside the back room, Zhang Mu heard the voice of interrogating Zhang Chi in the room, and the brocade guard smiled and said, "Little brother, you wait here first." I'm going to pass it on. With that, he entered the room.
After a moment, the interrogation stopped, and Han Fangshan and Tao Xingchang walked out.
Both of them were injured yesterday, and they hadn't slept all night, and they both looked a little haggard.
Especially Tao Xingchang, like frost, wilted on one side, and when he saw Zhang Mu, he was no longer raising his eyebrows, after all, Zhang Mu saved his life yesterday, and he smiled at Zhang Mu embarrassedly at this moment.
And Han Fangshan briefly treated the wound and interrogated it until now, he knew in his heart that it was impossible to hide Zhang Chi's disappearance for too long, so he must get the clue before the opponent found out, otherwise he would be busy again.
"Done with everything at home?" Han Fangshan asked in a low voice.
"Your Excellency, rest assured, it has been taken care of. It's just that the corpses of those remnants are still there, and the same is true for Zhang Ao, so come and ask the adults what to do with it? Zhang Mu bowed and said.
"Oh, I'm busy and forgot, I'll send someone to prepare a car to carry it later." Han Fangshan hurriedly smiled.
"The little one will take his leave first." Speaking of this, Zhang Mu turned around and prepared to leave, for Zhang Chi's backstage, Zhang Mu didn't want to know, and he didn't want to know, now that Zhang Chi was arrested, his goal was achieved, and he could participate less in this kind of bloody matter.
"Wait a minute." Han Fangshan has been in the Zhenfu Division for many years, and there have been countless prisoners who have been tortured, but Zhang Chi is undoubtedly a fast and hard bone, and now all the means that should be used have been used, but Zhang Chi has not said a word, that is, he is also a little poor in donkey skills, so he smiled and said: "Zhang Mu, you also know that time is tight now, this Zhang Chi does not eat soft and hard, why don't you give it a try?" ”
"My lord, this is not in accordance with the rules, is it? Zhang Chi is still young, and he hasn't learned these things from his masters, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right? Tao Xingchang hurriedly bowed his waist and said, he was shot by Zhang Mu yesterday, if Zhang Mu interrogated him again, he really stole chickens and rice this time, and he was injured after a busy time.
"Guawazi, when will it be your turn to call the shots here?" Han Fangshan frowned and said angrily, Tao Xingchang hurriedly bowed his waist to make amends.
Zhang Mu remembered what happened last night and was angry, but as soon as Han Fangshan left, Tao Xingchang was still his boss, and it would be troublesome to give him a small shoe to wear in the future, so it was better to give him a credit and smiled: "I still know Zhang Chi as a person, and I am afraid that he will not be able to vomit anything out of such torture." But I heard the patriarch say that Zhang Chi is very frugal, and he is very greedy for money, my lord, what does he want so much money for? ”
When Han Fangshan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but look Zhang Mu up and down and smiled: "Sure enough, you still have a way." Tao Xingchang, you can go and search out the account books of Zhang Chi's family for me. If you can't find it, I want your head to move. ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Tao Xingchang hurriedly glanced at Zhang Mu gratefully, and immediately went to greet someone, preparing to go to Zhang Chi's house to search for account books.
"In this way, Tao Xingchang is busy with him, and you can also go in and ask. Wouldn't it be easy for us to take a two-pronged approach? Han Fangshan saw that Tao Xingchang was gone, and then smiled again.
When Zhang Mu heard this, he understood that this was Han Fangshan's jīng ming who was worried about Zhang Chi, and he was afraid that Tao Xingchang would get nothing, so he said helplessly: "Then I'll give it a try." ”
"Be bold and do it, if you bite this line well, the credit will be yours." Han Fangshan promised.
"Can the adult let the little one be alone with him for a while?" Zhang Mu asked.
Han Fangshan suddenly smiled and said: "You kid has a lot of eyes, don't worry, I won't listen to your methods." Python, come out. ”
