Above the lobby of the Luoyang Command Office, Luoyang Commander Zhou Hui had already paced back and forth for an unknown number of steps, but the more he walked, the more irritable his heart became. His heart is like a mess, especially because of the recent cases in Luoyang, his head is as big as a fight, and he also asked Henan Yin to intervene, but unfortunately, for the series of cases that have appeared now, there is still not much effect, and there is no progress.

It was getting dark, and it turned out that at this time of time, he should have warmed a pot of wine at home, and spent time at home with the warmth of the stove. But he hadn't spent six or seven days at home like this now, which was a kind of torture for him who lived a very regular life, but he still had to do it.

I don't know when, the lanterns in the lobby have been lit, and I don't know when the miscellaneous servants in the government have come. Zhou Hui rubbed his hands, and his palms were slightly warm, making him feel much better.

Six days. In the past six days, there have been dozens of murders under the entire Luoyang Order, and among these murders, the dead even had soldiers in the army. For those soldiers, Zhou Hui could only send out the officials and squad leaders to inquire about the people who witnessed the murders, and sent a team of officials to inquire about the records of the post stations set up on the official road, so that they could find out that the dead soldiers were actually cavalrymen sent by Xiliang to Luoyang for interrogation.

As for what message was sent, what letter was sent, and who was the recipient, this is a big question. He was fortunate to be able to find the identities of these soldiers by the reverse deduction method, but how easy was it to get the dead to speak? What's more, those murderers, according to eyewitnesses, are all extremely fierce. They have a strong sense of purpose, and often take away a letter from the arms of the deceased, and immediately flee after the killing, Rao is Luoyang ordered the officials to search, and they cannot find any trace of the murderer.

Every murder is different, from those who were killed in public, to those who were found the next day in a remote location, to those who were found in the wilderness for days. There was one and a few who died, anyway, when the squad leader led the officials to the scene, there were not too many clues left on these people, and sometimes they couldn't even verify who the deceased was.

This really makes people feel a little bit like the mountain rain is coming, and the sky and the earth are collapsing. Zhou Hui's eyelids kept beating, he didn't know why his heart was so heavy, and there was a feeling that something big was going to happen in his heart.

As the Luoyang Order under the jurisdiction of Luoyang, he is in charge of the civil security of a city, and Zhou Hui, who has many birds in this official position, has already smelled an unusual smell. Especially the recent changes in the court, with His Majesty's poor health, the shrinkage of the ten permanent servants who are rampant above the court, anyway, he is becoming more and more incomprehensible.

"Forget it." He shook his head, anyway, it was time for him to resign and return to his hometown, not only was the feeling of inadequacy prompting him to resign, but the other reason was these murders under his jurisdiction.

He knew that he had no way to break it, and just by listening to the description, he could know that those assassins were extraordinary, not to mention that there was no appearance of any bitter master, which was very weird. Anyway, no matter who it is, it is not something that he, the Luoyang Order, can afford to offend such a bold and reckless person under the jurisdiction of Luoyang.

With a wry smile, Zhou Hui heard a "adult" from behind him, and his heart suddenly clicked. He knew that at this time, there was a good chance that something would happen again, probably someone had been killed. Because of this scene, he could almost think of what he heard next, which had been repeated dozens of times in the past six days.

"Has someone been killed again?" He turned around and asked the team leader who had just rushed back to the official office.

"Yes." The head of the squad replied with a dusty face.

"Tell my lord, an unknown male corpse has been found in the alley in the east of the city, and I have brought the corpse back, and now I am asking the servant to examine the wound. But I'm afraid of ......"

"But I'm afraid I don't even know who he is." Zhou Hui sighed, took over what the team leader had not finished and continued.

"We don't even know who and why they died, and how can we solve the case and catch the murderer? I have been on an errand in Luoyang Lingzhong for many years, but I'm afraid that Lao Li, you haven't encountered such a tricky case, right? ”

"What's more, it's not one, it's dozens, that's the tricky thing. It is estimated that I will soon be impeached by the DPRK and Chinese officials, but my resignation has already been handed in, and the news has only been in the past few days. Zhou Hui said slowly, the previous sentence was for Li Bantou, but the next sentence was self-talking.

"My lord......" Li Bantou's lips twitched, but there was no way to say anything persuasive. Because the Luoyang Order is a relatively aggrieved official position, it is difficult to be an official at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and being a Luoyang Order is even more difficult. Coupled with this incident, even he knew that adults were destined to fail this level this time. The difference is only that he was impeached, or he resigned from the official position of Luoyang Ling.

A slowly moving carriage stopped outside a mansion somewhere in Luoyang City. Just by looking at the guards next to the carriage and the tall horses ridden by dozens of guards, you can see that the owner of the carriage is either rich or noble. I'm afraid that neither rich nor expensive can describe the owner of this carriage, because good war horses are difficult to buy with money, which is the opinion of those knowledgeable people in Luoyang City.

"Is it there?" There was a sound in the carriage.

"Here we are, sir." Beside him, a knight rode forward and stopped by the window of the carriage and whispered in reply.

"How's the rest of the road going?" The man in the carriage asked again.

"Brothers, they're all dead." The knight's voice was extremely difficult, and every word was uttered between his teeth. The tyranny that filled his heart was almost like a volcano about to erupt, engulfing either himself or others.

"Oh." The man in the carriage replied faintly, without any emotion in his voice. When the knight heard this, he poured it on his head like a basin of cold water, and suppressed all the anger in his heart.

"There will be a chance for revenge. Anyway, no matter who it is, it can't change the fact that he is in Luoyang City, and sooner or later he will run into it. The owner of the carriage got up, lifted the curtain in front of him, and leaned out.

What was revealed was a young face, slightly handsome, but the vicissitudes of life on the face turned this handsomeness into a different meaning, making him look like a vulture. With his face sideways, facing the door of the mansion, he glanced around, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.

A pedestrian hurried past on the corner, and when he saw in the corner of his eye that the cavalry were still on guard, he couldn't help but quicken his pace, and left the place, becoming a commoner who seemed to be in a hurry to return home. The centaurs who had been laid out around the mansion had all but those whose eyes in the darkest places had left, or continued to lurk and wait.

If you don't have a chance, just keep waiting for it. It is not easy to kill people in Luoyang City, especially to kill a person who is protected by dozens of elite cavalry, and is still dozens of cautious cavalry. Also, no one knows if there are hidden fierce generals among this cavalry.

Ground floor. A building in Luoyang City, just in this season, is the same as the scenery outside the building, and the first floor has become much more depressed. At least for the first floor, in the spring, when the cold winter is still affected, once it is night, there are few people still in the building.

They are not green houses, but restaurants, and there are no activities that make people want to stop at night. So now the little two on the first floor are lazily gathered together to talk about all kinds of anecdotes, and when the time is up, they will close the door.

And the biggest reason for this sparse first floor at night is not because of the season, nor because of its bad food and drink, but because of the first floor in the dark, the whole building is like a part of the darkness. Except for a few places where the lights were still on, the rest of the area was hidden in the darkness, cold and eerie.

Of course, it is not an ordinary restaurant, and ordinary restaurants will not be built so high like it, nor will it be like it, closing when you want to close the door, and closing when you want to. It was the only building in Luoyang City, not because of course it could be compared to the pavilions in the palace, but because of its location in those dark corners that were not bound by light and law.

As long as you have money, you can buy the information you want here that belongs to the Luoyang region, and as long as you have the ability, of course, you can also bring the information it doesn't have. This is a pavilion that belongs to the underground world, and every night, it is a pavilion that is truly hidden in the night.

In fact, when it closes, the business of the day begins. What was closed was a door called the restaurant, but what was opened was the real portal to the first floor.

On the highest floor of the first floor, Shi A's arm was leaning against the wooden railing, holding a jar of wine in his hand, and he raised his head from time to time to take a few sips. The flame behind him went out, pulling his shadow long, and as soon as the wind blew, the shadow twisted again, and when the wind had calmed down, the shadow returned to normal.

He looked down at Luoyang City in the dark, and the bright lights in his eyes were all the prosperity of Luoyang City, or the place of power. Of course, compared to the current darkness in Luoyang City, these lights are nothing, because now, it belongs to the night, and it is the darkest time of the day.

What happens in the dark? Anything can happen in the dark, with insidious plots, bloody killings, and debauchery of love. In short, what is invisible and untouchable during the day, in the darkness of the night, they brew and act under the darkness of the night.

Shi Ah likes light, because in a place where there is light, sometimes he can really relax himself. It's just that he's mostly in the darkness now, and he has to try to like the darkness and at the same time to be in awe of it.

Even if he now occupies a vital position in the dark night of Luoyang City, it does not change his awe of darkness. But what about mastering the darkness? Darkness is most afraid of light, so he never touches things that should not be touched, because a ray of light can destroy a large area of darkness.

No one can live without living under the light.

"Wow." There were hurried footsteps stamping on the stairs, and from far and wide, the floor made a faithful sound, alerting someone to the arrival.

"What's the matter?" Shi Ah poured a sip of wine into his mouth and asked out loud.

It is the right hand that holds the wine jar, but his left hand can draw the sword from his waist at any time, and Shi Ah can hold the sword against the enemy whether it is his right hand or his left hand. Of course, the people who were able to see the sword in his left hand were all dead, and only a few of their senior brothers, as well as their master Wang Yue, could understand this.

"Big brother, Luoyang Ling sent someone to ask, saying that let's continue to send people over to assist in the investigation." Ten steps away from Shi A, the visitor stopped and said respectfully.

"Someone died again?" Shi Ah asked.

"Yes. It was found in a small alley not far north of the city. ”

"Northtown? Hum. Shi Ah snorted lightly and scoffed.

"Could it be that Luoyang Ling thinks that I, Shi A, will casually participate in these things? Then he really thinks too highly of me, there are many high gates in Beicheng, from outside Luoyang City, all the way to the vicinity of Beicheng, these people, no matter how you look at it, are not simple characters. What's more, there are also Xiliang cavalry in this! ”

"It's not easy in the first place, and it's not easy for the people who kill them. When did such an underground force appear in Luoyang City? The only possibility is to cross the river dragon. Behind this crossing the river dragon, it is not simple. ”

"The two of them are not simple, they just participate casually, but they don't know how to die even if they die."

Shi A's subordinates behind him turned pale when they heard this, and they swallowed a few saliva unconsciously, but they still had to continue to ask: "Then what should we do about the big brother?" ”

"What to do? Grunt...... Shi A took a few more sips of wine, let the wine flow across the corners of his mouth, and then said: "Send someone over to cooperate casually, anyway, he Luoyang Ling must know that he can't take care of it, and he doesn't dare to take care of it!" It's just that I can't help but give Luoyang Ling's face, so I just go over and verify the inference of the pretend. ”

"Yes. Then big brother, I'm going to send someone over? ”

"Go ahead." Shi A said lightly.

With the sound of footsteps leaving, after disappearing completely, Shi Ah retracted his gaze from afar. The wind upstairs was very cold in the dark night, and as soon as it blew, it completely dissipated the little wine that he had brewed. The coldness in the brain, the coldness in the heart, and the coldness of the night wind, the three phases are mixed, just like the coldness of the sword blade when killing.

"Little junior brother, I just hope you don't step too deep, otherwise when the time comes, I'm afraid that the master won't be able to save you." He muttered to himself.

"The water in the court is not a sword in the rivers and lakes."
