166. The discovery of the iron hand
Dong Chao and Xue Ba's faces had turned the color of pig liver at this time. If you don't tell the truth, I won't be able to pass this level. If you have the heart to tell the truth, I'm afraid Qingzhou won't be able to stay in the future. But one step at a time, the two finally decided to recruit.
"Report to the adults, Tian Kai is corrupt and perverts the law, and the small ones must be reported." Dong Chao gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
Saying that, Dong Chao kicked Xue Ba. Xue Ba understood, and also said loudly: "My lord, I also want to report it." ”
"Okay, let's talk slowly, let Dong Chao say it, count you two reports. You must tell all the facts, and you must not add oil and vinegar, nor do you lose two pounds, otherwise the official will let you go around without eating. ”
When Dong Chao and Xue Ba heard me say this, their hearts were settled. Who is the god of the Hayama army, that's a well-known character, (just let me bear two stinky farts, haha.) Since I say that, it means that I will not go back.
So Dong Chao told everything from beginning to end.
It turned out that Tian Kai lived in the Tian Family Pavilion in front. This time, Tian Kai heard that the official yamen wanted to escort the silver two back to Beijing, so he put together the floating wealth he had looted over the years and entrusted him to escort him to Tianjiating by the way.
Unexpectedly, the thieves set up an ambush here, and not only robbed the official silver, but also robbed his own floating wealth.
Next, Dong Chao piled up one by one, revealing the floating wealth and inventory of people Tian Kai had looted over the years. I really don't know it, but I'm shocked when I say it. The official silver escorted this time was only ten leaf coins, and the silver looted by Tian Kai reached 100 leaf coins.
After Dong Chao finished speaking, I looked at Tie Shou and sighed: "This Tian Kai is really not a thing, how can he be so greedy?" ”
Tie Shou smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, in fact, this Tian Kai is considered incorruptible." In the whole world, there are no officials and no greed. Hearing Dong Chao say this, this Tian Kai doesn't seem to have done anything about the lives of people, and people like him can be regarded as greedy. Find a random county order, and his net worth is thousands of times that of his. These things really can't be investigated. ”
"What about Dong Chao and Xue Ba?"
Iron Hand looked at me playfully, and suddenly clenched his fists and said: "Iron Hand but according to the orders of the Lord, the words of the Holy Lord, Iron Hand will always remember." ”
I laughed: "Very good, Dong Chao, Xue Ba, since you have made this contribution, this official will not care about you." Give them both a way. You two find your own way out, and you can do it for yourself in the future. Oh, untie the rope first. ”
Seeing that the rope was untied, Dong Chao and Xue Ba hurriedly kowtowed and went with a thousand thanks.
Next, it is the Qingzhou Army that sent this battalion.
When I glanced at the Qingzhou Army, the commander of the Qingzhou Army had already come.
"Lord Xiong, we've heard what you just said. I didn't expect the brothers' salaries to be eaten by Lord Thorn Shi. There's no point in going back, brothers. From now on, the last general and his brothers will follow the adults. ”
I really didn't expect this to be the result. In fact, with my current strength, I really haven't seen the Qingzhou soldiers in this battalion. But there are NPCs willing to take the initiative to defect, which is a good sign. So I'm going to have to play this scene well.
At that moment, I nodded and said, "Since the general has this thought, it is not easy for this official to refuse." However, it depends on the brothers. If you're willing to stay, follow me. If you don't want to stay, you can allocate money and food and let them go back by themselves, what does the general think? By the way, I haven't consulted the general's surname Gao. ”
The commander said gratefully: "The last general, Wu Anbang, thank you for your brothers." ”
[Wu Anbang] is a third-level military general with peak strength. Three grids. Level 119.
"By the way, I have heard for a long time that there is a fierce general in Qingzhou, named Wu Anguo, I don't know if he is the same martial artist as the general?"
"It turns out that the name of my brother, the general has also heard of it, and it is really a blessing for my brother."
That's how my heart was. Originally, it was just a question, but I didn't expect that people were really brothers.
"What a fierce brother. Okay, now, General Wu will talk to your brothers first, and see who is willing to stay, and who is willing to leave. ”
Wu Anbang agreed, and immediately told everyone what I meant. In the end, only one Biao did not want to stay for various reasons, and Wu Anbang gave them enough money and food according to my instructions and sent them away. The rest are willing to stay.
"Very well, from now on, we are brothers. General Wu can take his brothers to station in Jinggongzhuang first, and then make arrangements for the brothers when the court has a decree in the future. Today, let's take a look at this case together. ”
After this delay, the case has been put aside for a while. However, this delay also delayed a useful information, that is, it was lost together with the sale of official silver, as well as Tian Kai's floating wealth. I can't help but be secretly happy, it seems that I can make a contribution to the emperor's teacher again this time.
I just don't know if this case was done by Cheng Yanjin and You Junda, if they really did it, how to contribute to the emperor's teacher at the same time, and at the same time be able to get two generals, it's a problem.
But now there is no trace of the eight characters, so it is important to investigate the scene first.
Because I came in time, it was less than a game day before the crime, so the scene was relatively clear. What's more, the whole of Yanzhou is cloudless on this game day, which is undoubtedly very important for retaining clues.
It is important to have four clues in this case, which are horseshoe prints, wheel prints, footprints, and camouflage marks. Because the official who escorted the official silver was on horseback, and the thief also rushed out on horseback, the whereabouts of the horseshoe prints were the first clue.
And the cart that transports the silver taels, because the silver taels are heavier, the ruts are also deeper, which is the second clue. There are people on foot on both sides, which is the third clue.
In order to cover up these clues, if you are a veteran, you will inevitably carry out on-site camouflage, and the traces of these camouflage are the fourth clue.
Usually in this kind of case, the fourth clue is the most important. For example, in the Peacock King murder case, I found the murderer through the fourth clue. Of course, you can't ignore the first three clues, in case the other party is not deep, it is very likely that he will not disguise the scene at all.
And for this case, in fact, the key point is the rut print. Because rut marks are the least difficult to camouflage. But other clues can't be missed, or the example of the Peacock King murder case, which eventually found the murderer through a variety of clues.
I immediately divided the labor, Qin Qiong was fast, and he was responsible for tracking the horseshoe prints with the Blood Knife Ancestor. Lei Guang and Fan Hu were in charge of tracking the footprints. Iron Hand and I were in charge of tracking the rut marks.
After asking the officials about the direction of retreat and the direction in which the thief appeared, the three groups of people began to look for traces in the direction where the thief appeared.
The other party did not deliberately disguise the rut marks. Because the difficulty of this camouflage is very high. Generally, if you want to camouflage rut marks, you can only fill in the loess, and the loess is different from the surrounding soil, even if you fill it, you can't camouflage.
Therefore, it is necessary to spread the loess all over the road. In that way, the loess will become a new clue again. Therefore, clever robbers generally do not hide rut marks.
Since rut marks are difficult to hide, it is necessary to think of another way. The most common method is to continue to load stones in the car after removing the silver taels, and continue to drive the car forward, misleading.
So when Iron Hand and I were tracking the rut marks, the most important thing was to find the place where the other party was dressed with stones. In such a location, because there is a process of changing stones and unloading silver, the other party will inevitably stay for a long time.
During this long stay, many traces are bound to remain, even if they are disguised. If the thief is negligent, there are even traces that cannot be disguised at all.
It is also important to note that no matter whether the stones are brought in or the silver taels are removed, they will always continue to be transported after unloading. So along the way, this trace will continue to flow.
Just as rut marks are not easy to camouflage, so are footprints that carry heavy objects. Otherwise, the thieves will use horses or oxen and donkeys to carry them, but the hoof prints of animals pressed on heavy objects are also obvious clues.
Soon Iron Hand showed the value of his famous catch. In an inconspicuous place, Iron Hand spotted the cat at a glance. I didn't notice anything at all, and I was ready to move on.
The road surface here is the same as in other places, and the sides are overgrown with vegetation. But the iron hand directly asked the two officials to go over and pick up the grass, so a road appeared behind the grass.
I couldn't help but ask, "Iron Catcher, how did you find out?" ”
