"Lieutenant Yan, how many cases have there been in this county in the past two months?" Dugu Xinci asked directly, and did not give the two of them tea, in front of the officials, his own Ming Mansion also needed to show the boss's style in front of the subordinate officials.

"Shoot the flowers? Well, there are indeed a lot of children who have been lost for nearly two months, seventeen cases, only ten cases have been detected, and the rest of the clues are only handed over to Jingzhao Mansion," Yan Qifeng County Lieutenant also said calmly.

Seventeen cases of photographing flowers seem to be many, but Wannian County is a super county with a population of 500,000, ten times that of other counties, dozens of times that of Xia County, there are several cases every day, and there are many cases of seventeen cases of photographing flowers in two months, or it seems that there are many criminal cases of children going missing, but it is only four or five more than in previous years, and ten children have been recovered.

"The two of you have worked hard, and such merits will ask for credit for you, but you can't slack off. That is, it is necessary to strengthen the prevention" Dugu Xinci commanded.

"A certain and Marquis Guo Wu have rearranged it, and assigned special personnel to keep an eye on children everywhere, but there is still a shortage of manpower?" Yan Qifeng nodded but took the opportunity to ask for someone, and it was not too many people to ask for this period.

"Let Jin Wuwei send another battalion to inspect, tell Xiao Yu'er of Lijingmen, and let him also send more manpower, Guo Xiaotang Wuhou Chief, if you send someone to Kuixing Pavilion to find Qiu Jianwang and Dean Zhang of the Infantry Academy, and let them also add manpower, isn't it just to take care of the food? As long as you do things neatly, you won't miss their meal," Dugu Xinci thought about it and continued to command.

"Why don't you let the students of the Youth Hall of China Normal University go into the city to help?" Guo Xiaotang also suggested.

"Oh, it's okay, they're children, too, and they can be bait for you?" Dugu Xinci immediately saw the plan of the two.

"With their skills, it's okay," Guo Xiaotang said with a smile.

"They can't be bait, they can only deter Xiaoxiao, last month they used themselves as bait, smashed three flower gangs, and found a number of lost children, the name of the Youth Hall of China Normal University is much more than a certain Wuhou in Wannian County, and the martial arts rangers of all parties are admired?" The county lieutenant of Yan Qifeng also smiled, and it was a flattering remark.

"You wait for the arrangement, find someone to go to Qingchuan to talk to Yao Chong's general affairs, and bring someone over in the afternoon" Dugu Xinci didn't care.

The three people of Wannian County discussed and decided.

"Can you let the students of your Chinese Normal University go to Chang'an County to inspect it?" Wei Kang hurriedly interjected.

"There is also a shortage of people in a certain Wannian County?" Dugu Xinci tilted his head and said.

"Wannian County Chang'an County also belongs to Jingzhao, so you need to watch and help?" Wang Zhishu Mansion Yin was a little uncomfortable, these two Shangguan came to seek advice, and this hit a nail before it began?

"Then you came up with an idea for this case?" Wei Kangshangshu didn't think it was a pestle.

"Fourteen cases have been reported to Jingzhao Mansion? There are still three cases in the county government? Dugu Xinci asked the county lieutenant of Yan Qifeng.

"There are still three people in custody, but all of them are attempted, and they were discovered by some people when they coaxed children, and the evidence was not all the ones who were locked up first," Guo Xiaotang reported.

"Are these three gangs alone or gangs?" Dugu Xinci asked.

"Not yet confirmed," Guo Xiaotang shook his head.

"Well, you will go to the examination site first, arrange the things and come back, and the small hall will hand over the matter, and you will be with this flower shooting case in the next two days" Dugu Xinci instructed again, and the two bosses had to give some response when they came to visit together.

After Dugu Xinci finished speaking, he said to Wei Kangshangshu, Wang Zhishu, and Yin of the Mansion: "Go to the front hall first, and see what the details of these three people are?" ”

"Let's go with it," Wei Kang thought about it, it would be okay to come and go in civilian clothes today.

Wang Zhishu Mansion Yin also nodded, this is the inner house, and the Empress Nalan is still outside the hall? It's a bit stressful, or is it easier to go to the office?

When a group of people came to the front hall, they didn't go to the county hall or the council hall, but went directly to the county governor's hall, which was the inner hall of the six doors that Dugu Xinci saw on their first day.

Yan Qifeng and Guo Xiaotang called the two trappers who stayed in the county party to listen to the Ming government, and they hurriedly went to the martial arts test site, but they were seen by the county lieutenant Wang Yong, who stayed behind, and several trappers who volunteered to lead the soldiers to take over the shift.

Dugu Xinci asked him to call the warden and asked him to take the three prisoners who took the flower shooting case to take a look.

Wei Kangshangshu and Wang Zhishu Mansion Yin did not take the lead, and each brought someone to sit with them on both sides, so that Dugu Xinci was in charge of the trial.

Dugu Xinci is also too lazy to be polite, this is the county party of Wannian County, and he is the chief official.

There are also a lot of people in the county lieutenant's hall now, two rows of more than 20 people in red robes and black gauze hats, holding water and fire sticks in two rows, each with their chests held high, this is the second time that the Ming Mansion has personally ascended to the court to try the case?

Even Jiang He joined the army and heard that he came from the back of the army hall to be the secretary in person, Dugu Xin Ci'an sat in the county lieutenant's hall, with a high hanging plaque on his head, and a screen of sunrise peaks behind him, and behind the screen Nalan Feiya waited with the excited Du Shasha Big Bear Ah Dog Qiu Wutear.

Du Shasha yelled every day for Brother Tianxing to try the case, but she was fooled by his episodes, and today she finally got what she wanted.

After a while, the warden of Wannian County brought three prisoners over, and as soon as he entered the hall, the arresters on both sides immediately lit with water and fire sticks, shouting mighty.

This is the last time Dugu Ming Mansion tried the case, after the Qingming Festival, the Hanlin enshrined Zhang Xuan's widow to tell the Dugu County Order, in order to intimidate and cheer the Hanlin to be edicted, Dugu Xinci ordered the arresters to shout in the lobby, so that the solemn trial scene is more solemn, and at the same time deter the original defendant, the county lieutenant seems to have a feeling, so he kept this trick.

The two ends of the water and fire sticks are wrapped in iron, and the bluestone slabs in the hall are hurriedly clicked, which is very noisy, and the muffled and long mighty sound makes people feel mad.

The three people brought in, an old man, a young man, and a strong woman, were ordered by the warden to stand aside after entering, and the three of them were only a little flustered and calm, because they only failed to shoot flowers and were not put on the torture equipment.

"Yuming Mansion, bring the prisoners" Wang Yong County Lieutenant looked at the warden, the warden nodded, and replied to the Dugu County Order.

Dugu Xinci flipped through the last interrogation of these three people, and there was nothing else to say, Wang Yong, the county lieutenant retreated, and stood on his left hand, and the warden stood on the right side of the squad head, both of whom were blue-robed horizontal swords.

By the time Dugu Xinci finished reading the interrogation records, it was already half a tea time.

The three prisoners stood in the hall with their heads bowed, and they couldn't help but look at the hall several times during the period.

"This old man's surname? Where is the home? Dugu Xinci took turns looking at the three of them for a while, and suddenly asked with a smile.

"Yuming Mansion, Hachinuer, Laosuo Hebei Dao, went to Beijing to enjoy it today, but was misunderstood as a flower shooter, it is really wronged, and the Ming Mansion has not yet made the decision?" The old man of the three called.

"Huh? Lao Zhang, a person from Hebei Province? That state capital? ”

"Bohai Protectorate"

"Oh, do you know so-and-so?"

"How did Lao Su know the Ming Mansion?"

"Oh, does that old man know Hachi Qi'er or Demon Wolf Celestial Star?"

"The name of the Demon Wolf Celestial Star is known to everyone in the Far East, and a certain person only knows his name but has not seen him, but Hachi Beggars have never heard of it," the old man shook his head.

"Really? Hachi Qi'er is a celebrity in Bohai? Isn't the reputation under the Demon Wolf Celestial Star? is also the same surname as the father-in-law, but the father-in-law doesn't know him? Dugu Xinci still asked with a smile.

"I really don't know Hachi'er, and I haven't heard of Hachi'er's name," the old man continued to shake his head.

"You're lying, you're not a Bohai person at all" Dugu Xinci suddenly became angry and was shocked.

The old man's color changed suddenly, and his legs were weak and he almost fell to his knees.

"Where the hell are you?" Dugu Xinci asked.

"Is it really a Bohai person?"

"The state capital of Bohai?"

"Anping Prefecture Anping Prefecture People"

"Who is the assassin of Anping Prefecture today?"

"Lao Suo only knows the surname Zhou"

"Where are you in the tenth year of Shenlong?"

"A certain in his hometown of Anping Prefecture, Bohai"

"Who is the governor of the Bohai Navy at that age?"

"Governor of the Four Seas"

"Are you from the Tieli or the Junli Ministry?"

"Lao Suo belongs to the Tieli Ministry"

"Where is Hachi'er buried?"

"I don't know this person"

"Where is Seymour Kitcha now?"

"Well, I don't know this person"

Dugu Xinci didn't ask questions, and looked at this person for a long time and suddenly muttered a few words, and the old man was at a loss.

"You can't even understand the dialect of the family and don't know the people you don't know, you dare to talk nonsense in front of someone, your courage is really big, my husband, a certain is called Dugu Xinci, and a certain is called Dugu Tianxing in the Far East" Dugu Xinci said again.

"Demon Wolf Celestial Star?" The old man was shocked, and this time he fell to the ground with a pop.

"Pull down and play the twenty boards first, and then come back to talk" Dugu Xinci waved his hand, Wang Yong took four trappers and dragged the old man out, and after a while, there was a scream from Hachinur outside.

"This lady, where are you?" Dugu Xinci asked the strong woman next to her with a smile.

"The people's woman is from Guiyifang, Chang'an County," the strong woman replied tremblingly.

"Oh, last time you said that you only liked children because you lived alone, so you gave them candied fruit, and you didn't know that there was a drug in the candied fruit, did you?"

"Exactly, the women are wronged?"

"If you are wronged or not, you don't care about it, you only ask you, you say that you are working in the Sword God Mansion, what kind of work do you do?"

"A certain cook"

"Oh, does the red lady still eat roast chicken every day?"

"Uh, eat"

"Oh, confirmed?"

"Yes, the red lady has no meat every day," the woman replied.

"You are lying, the red lady has been losing weight recently, and she has been eating this vegetarian dish, plus the recent Yantang slaughter order, how can you still let the meat be served?" Dugu sighed.

"The red lady does eat roast chicken every day," the woman called out in a panic.

"I said that you are really unlucky, just now the one who claimed to be a Bohai person, but he didn't know that he was a demon wolf in the Far East, and the old thief woman of yours was also ignorant, and it was not good to arrange where to work, but I didn't know that Yang Qiulangjun of the Sword God Mansion was a friend of the same department, and he pulled it down and hit the twenty boards first" Dugu Xinci also waved his hand, and the warden dragged him out with four trappers.

"Give her a decent look, and go to the county jail to let the female jail be executed?" Dugu Xinci shouted to the warden, and the warden promised that he would take off his hakama by hitting the buttocks when he hit the board.

So there was a female voice screaming, and the two echoes made the rest of the teenagers tremble.

"Your name is Li Ergouzi?" Dugu Xinci asked with a smile again, but the young man was even more chilled, and in just a few words, he exposed the lies of the two peers, this is really a demon wolf?

"The kid is Li Ergouzi"

"Who got this name? A native of Huaidaoli, Longmen Township, Chang'an County? ”

"This is obtained by a certain family, and a certain person is from Huaidaoli, Longmen Township"

"Oh, do you know the two men you were beaten?"

"I don't know"

"Have you thought about it?" Dugu Xinci asked with a smile.

"I really don't know these two people"

"Boy, do you have to tell the truth? Some's patience is limited, both of them deceived so-and-so, as the saying goes, it's not more than three, you come to deceive so-and-so, so-and-so can be angry, since you are from Kyoto, you should know the name of so-and-so, Pingkang's iron gall Yang Lao Wu knows? Someone killed him with just one move."

The boy's face was pale, but he still bit his lip.

"You are still young, and the heaviest child abduction and trafficking is only 3,000 miles in exile, if you honestly confess a few accomplices, maybe you will be fine with a few boards, but if you are not happy, you will let you out in court now, what do you think?" Dugu Xinci laughed so that the young man's heart chilled.

The young Li Ergouzi and everyone were confused and puzzled.

"Now that the sage has issued an order to slaughter and fish, it is not good to kill you in the county office, but out of the county party, hehe....." Dugu Xinci sneered unabashedly.

The boy was sweating profusely and collapsed to the ground.

"Do you know the man and the woman just now?" Dugu Xinci continued to ask.

The boy didn't speak, sweating like a pulp.

Dugu Xinci drew a bamboo stick and tapped the surface of the case one by one, like a requiem.

"Let it out," Dugu Xinci tapped eighteen times, and sighed when he saw no movement.

At this moment, Ah Gou also turned out from behind the screen with a blank face, and shrank back after a glance at the boy.

The young man Li Ergou has sharp eyes, knowing that this short boy is the guard of the Far Eastern Hou, and he came to check the appearance of a certain person at this moment in order to wait for the county government to start, right?

"You're not leaving? That is, it will be thrown out," Dugu Xinci drank again.

"So-and-so, so-and-so said, so-and-so knows that Aunt Li, she is indeed from Guiyifang" The young man quickly turned over and knelt down and shouted.

"Well, where did you hide the kidnapping child?" Dugu is kind and drinks.

"I don't know," the boy quickly called down.

At this time, the warden hurriedly came over, went to Dugu Xinci and said, "That prisoner can't stand the board, and wants to confess, Mingfu, do you continue to beat or drag over to listen to her confession?" ”

"So can't help fighting? Well, Li Ergouzi, although you confessed, you didn't make meritorious contributions? It's a pity, I can't reduce the guilt, well, drag this Li Ergou down, and then bring that prisoner up" Dugu Xinci ordered.

"So-and-so, so-and-so said, they hid the kidnapped children in the courtyard of the watchman by the release pond in Xishi," Li Ergou called.

"How many?"

"I don't know, I heard that there are a lot, dozens or hundreds" The young man's confession made Wei Kangshangshu and Wang Zhixuan unable to sit still any longer.

"Wang Fu Yin, let the people of Jingzhao Mansion take over the rest, right?" Dugu Xinci threw the bamboo skewer into the sticker, beckoned to his boss, clapped his hands and got up, it was too unchallenging.

Wang Zhishu and Wei Kangshangshu looked at each other, it's as simple as that? The twenty boards committed by the two people outside haven't finished yet?

"Please still ask Dugu Mingfu to seconded a few people and a certain person to get people," Wang Zhishu Mansion Yin bowed his hand and thanked him.

"Wang Fu Yin can go to General Pei of Jinwuwei to lend people, you see how many people are here, and the guards of the county prison are also stretched?" Dugu Xinci turned down his boss's request.

Wang Zhishu Mansion Yin glanced at his subordinate county order, and then said to Wei Kangshangshu, "I still ask Wei Shangshu to preside over it here, and I will transfer people to get people."

"That's good, Wang Fu Yin please" Wei Kangshangshu didn't take credit.

"Let's go, I'm going to the back house to rest, I'm tired to death" Dugu Xinci greeted Wei Kangshangshu.

Wei Kangshangshu waved his hand, the breakthrough of the case here is important, this is obviously a gang of child abduction and trafficking, two people have confessed, and if there are Tibetans, more and more people will be arrested.
