At this time, Zong Jiyuan was even more unexpected than He Ruichang, first of all, the number of these "five people" could not help but make her think of Ding Er's five people at once, and secondly, she could kill five people at the same time, but she had not yet alarmed the residents living nearby, this strength should not be underestimated.

Seeing that the adult looked at him, Zong Jiyuan nodded knowingly and said,

"Let's let the students and Third Brother Diao go over and have a look first."

"Okay, you go first, and the official will be there."

He Ruichang agreed.

Zong Jiyuan, Diao Sanlang, and Wang Yu led the horse together and walked along the sound of the crowd, but the more they walked, the more they couldn't help but feel surprised, and after coming to the place where the accident occurred, this surprise had already been realized, because this was the place where Zong Jiyuan and Wang Yu taught those five people together last night, and it was Ding Er's gang who died in front of them.

Looking at the situation in front of him, Zong Jiyuan "chuckled" in his heart, looked back at Wang Yu, who was even more shocked than her, and asked with his eyes, "What's going on", and Wang Yu also replied with his eyes, "I don't know wow".

At this time, Diao Saburo had already taken out the waist card of "Liaodong County Chief Catcher" from his arms, and shook it towards the crowd of onlookers in the alley.

"Everybody stand back! A little farther away, we are the poor officials of the Liaodong County Ya, and we are about to start handling the case! Idle people and others lean back! ”

"People from the Yamen? It's so fast......"

The onlookers were talking and talking, and at the same time they all stepped back, and in just a moment's time, the scene of the crime was already empty.

The bodies of the five people fell to the ground in an orderly manner, Diao Saburo stepped forward and began to inspect them one by one, taking this opportunity, Zong Jiyuan asked the people around him,

"Who first discovered these people?"

"Yes, it's the villain, I ......"

In the midst of the crowd, hesitantly, a man came out, looking about forty years old, still holding a broom tightly in his hand, and although he was answering, it was obvious that he was still worried about something.

In order not to let him have any more palpitations, Zong Jiyuan said very gently,

"Oh, yes, in that case, there are a few questions I want to ask you, but please don't be nervous, we just want to know more details so that it can help solve the case, of course, this big brother needs your help."

"Oh, yes, you can say hello to this official."

Zong Jiyuan's smile and these words really worked, and the person in front of him immediately seemed to calm down a lot.

Nodding slightly, Zong Jiyuan walked closer to him and asked in a casual tone,

"May I ask this eldest brother's surname, does he live nearby?"

"The little one's surname is Li, his name is Li Han, isn't it, he just lives in this door......"

As he spoke, Li Han pointed to a small wooden door diagonally opposite.

Zong Jiyuan glanced up and saw that it was the same as the other doors, not like the main gate of someone's house, so he asked,

"Is that the back door of your house?"

"No, it's not,"

Li Han waved his hand and explained,

"It's true that the back door of someone else's house is basically in this alley, but the villain's house is a tenant of this yard, and he can only enter and exit from here, and this back door is equivalent to the front door of the villain's house."

That's it, it's no wonder that so many people died here, and they weren't discovered until this time, because this is a place that people don't often visit.

Thinking of this, Zong Jiyuan asked again,

"So, may I ask Brother Li, what do you do for a living?"

"The villain is a husband, in addition to the watch, he also sweeps the floor for this street or something......"

Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered something and said,

"By the way, the villain was on duty in the middle of the night last night, and he came home at the end of the third watch, and there was nothing here at that time......

"He's right,"

Diao Sanlang, who had already examined the body, came over at this time and took over Li Han's words, and said,

"I have preliminarily concluded that the time of death of these people did not exceed three hours, and all of them were killed with one sword, what about the rest...... Alas, it would be nice if Mr. Ye were here......"

"Three hours?"

Zong Jiyuan heard this, and couldn't help but glance at Wang Yu again.

Counting the time, the time when the two of them taught these five guys should have been six hours ago, and they should have left after that, which can be confirmed by the fact that Li Han did not find anything unusual when he came home in the middle of the night. But what made them come back here again, and they were killed?

At this time, Wang Yu seemed to really couldn't help it, and asked her quietly,

"Ji Yuan, look, what the hell is going on?"

"It's hard to say right now......"

Zong Jiyuan thought for a while, and suddenly set his eyes on Wang Yu, startling Wang Yu, and then slowly whispered,

"Is it related to 'Overlord Village'......"

After speaking, without waiting for his answer, she walked over, carefully observed around the alley, and when she nodded slightly as if she saw something, and turned around again, she saw that Lord He, accompanied by He Qingyu and other errands, had also come here.

Diao Saburo hurriedly stepped forward to greet him,

"My lord, this is indeed a case of five lives, as the man said."

"Yes,"

He Ruichang, with the support of his son, got off the carriage, glanced at the place where the crime occurred, and said,

"Find someone to call the local governor."

"Okay."

agreed, Diao Saburo turned his head and saw Li Han who was still standing aside, and said in his heart, this person looks quite honest, and there is no need to find anyone else, so he beckoned to him,

"Li Han, this is our county magistrate Lord He, you go and tell the local lieutenant right now and ask him to come and see him quickly."

"Huh? Oh! ”

Hearing that it was the county magistrate, Li Han was so shocked that he froze, then threw down the broom in his hand, turned around and ran.

Looking at the back of him leaving, Zong Jiyuan had already walked back, first saluted He Ruichang, and then pulled Diao Sanlang to his side and said,

"My lord, third brother, these five people should have been killed elsewhere before moving here. Just now, the students took a closer look and saw that their wounds were all on the neck, which could easily cause a lot of bleeding, but there was not much blood around the scene, and from the posture they were lying on the ground, it was not very natural to fall. ”

"That's right......"

He Ruichang listened, nodded and thought for a while, as if he was talking to himself, and as if he was asking the two right-hand men,

"But what is the purpose of the murderer?"

"According to the student's guess,"

Zong Jiyuan also thought the same,

"Under normal circumstances, there are only two purposes for doing this, one is to blame someone, and the other is to warn someone."
