Chapter 184: The Assassin
Zheng Feng's disappearance not only made Song Jiu and them more vigilant, but the other two groups of people also looked solemn when they got the news.
"Didn't you get caught by the other party?" Li Zhang stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, his fingers moving. He asked the same question as Song Jiu: "Have you found any suspicious people?" ”
"There was a swill cart in before the man disappeared, and there was nothing else." Dong Ming replied honestly.
"Do you want to see the swill truck?"
"When the swill truck came in and out, his subordinates paid special attention to that person, and it was indeed the same person." In addition, he still felt uneasy, and deliberately let one person go to follow the swill cart, and he and the other brothers continued to stare at it.
In addition to them, there was another group of people staring at Zheng Feng, he didn't dare to take anything lightly, and he couldn't make a difference if he was a little worse. He can only send one person to keep an eye on, leaving the others behind, in case something happens, he can't compete with the other party.
I didn't think it would end up ........
"My subordinates should die, please punish them." Dong Ming knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty.
Li Zhang ignored him, but continued to ask, "What did the swill truck find in the end?" ”
Dong Ming shook his head and said that the person who followed didn't find anything, so he collected the swill one by one, and after collecting it, he took it to the outside of the town for processing, and there was nothing peculiar.
Li Zhang touched the ring on his hand and said very calmly: "Do you know how important this matter is to me? ”
"It's not a pity for a subordinate to die." Dong Ming's head hung down next to the ground, he naturally knew in his heart how important this matter was to Li Zhang, and he messed up the matter, even if he apologized for his crimes, he couldn't make up for it.
Li Zhang sighed out the window: "What's the use of talking about this now." ”
has been by Li Zhang's side for many years as an attendant, and it can be said that Dong Ming is a celebrity by Li Zhang's side, and he is also his left and right arm. Many shady things were handed over to him to do in private, and if he cut Dong Ming, it would undoubtedly cut off his arm.
Originally, the disappearance of the person was enough for him to have a headache, and he was afraid that he would not be crazy if he cut off his arm again.
"It's just to pull you down and cut you down, and what should disappear is still gone. Instead of that, you might as well think about how to make meritorious deeds. After that, Li Zhang waved his hand to let him go down, he needed to be quiet and think about it now.
Outside the window is the spring flowers, and inside the window is gloomy clouds. Li Zhang put his hand on the window, and there was a chill in his eyes.
He pinned all his hopes on this, and it was impossible to say that it ended because of the disappearance of a Zheng Feng. People are looking for them, the case is going to be solved, and no one can stop him.
Li Zhang narrowed his eyes and turned to leave.
And the people on the other side also received news that Zheng Feng suddenly disappeared.
"Is there a mistake?" The middle-aged man sitting on the chair in a business uniform had a very bad tone and seemed to be very dissatisfied with the result.
The man on his knees replied that the information was accurate, and when they noticed that something was wrong, they searched the yard while the old lady went to report to the official, and there was no one.
"Where's the thing? Did you find something? "It doesn't matter if people lose it, it's just a small business that has lost power, and they can't make any waves. As long as you have something, you can say anything.
The kneeling man shook his head and said that he had not found it, and he did not know if he had worn it on his body or if he had hidden it somewhere else, anyway, the yard where they were living now had not been turned over to what he wanted.
"What are you going to eat?" The man was furious, picked up the teacup on the table, threw it at the person, and smashed it on the person's forehead. With a heavy thud, the man snorted and didn't dare to hide. The blood flowed down the eyebrow bone, and he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it.
"A bunch of waste, the people under their noses can't see it well, and they haven't found anything, what do you say I raise you for, useless things." The man slapped the table angrily: "If you don't get this thing right, if you stab it out, all of us will lose our heads." You want to die yourself, and I want to live two more days. ”
"Subordinate convicted."
"You know that you have a fart, I want something, something."
"Subordinate convicted." The man knelt on the ground, and the man was angry again.
The man stood up with his hands behind his back and walked over, and stopped after a while: "There is no other way now, send more people to find things, and solve the useless people of the Zheng family, so as not to fall into trouble." Especially the one in that cell, I can't stay. The man's squinting eyes revealed a fierce light, which was very terrifying.
Now that things have come to this point, it was originally planned that if they kept to themselves, it was not impossible for them to stay behind the Zheng family.
Who knew that Zheng's grandson actually left a hand to trap them, if something didn't happen, how could he know this.
If you are unkind, you can't blame him for being unjust, everyone just wants to live, that's all.
Zheng Feng's sudden disappearance was like a fuse, blasting all the things that were originally stable, one after another, one after another.
On the night when the man gave the order, Zheng Feng and the small courtyard they rented ushered in a group of uninvited guests. The old lady was sleeping soundly when suddenly there was a sound of swords clashing and fighting in the courtyard.
The old lady was awakened instantly, and when she rolled over and got out of bed, she saw the scene outside through the window, and she was so frightened that she took a few steps back. But in the end, it can be regarded as someone who has seen some things, and after being frightened for a moment, he calmed down.
In fact, when they got the things, they expected things like this to happen, but they didn't expect ...... It came so fast.
The old lady looked around the room to find a place to hide. But the house is so big. In addition to the table and chairs, there was only a bed and a cupboard, and there was no other place to hide. The old lady gritted her teeth and hid in the closet. If it's really God! Dead her, she can only admit it.
Outside is the shadow of the sword, the muffled hum of the sword into the body, and the old lady inside is sweating like rain and her heart is beating like thunder.
The fight didn't last long, it ended quickly, and there was no sound.
The old lady hid in the closet, pinching her clothes, and did not dare to make a sound. Even if it was quiet outside, she didn't dare to open the cabinet door and go out to take a look.
She was afraid that as soon as she pushed open this door, she would be greeted by a cold sword.
And Dong Ming, who won this assassination outside, looked back at the closed door, he knew that the old lady was inside. He could have taken people with him, or at least he would have protected their names.
But he didn't do that, and left enough men to hide and guard. He and several other injured people returned to the palace with the corpses in the courtyard.
If you bring it back, you may be able to find something out of these people, and what Li Zhang wants to check is the person behind it. It's just that the room is too tightly covered, so I have to start with the Zheng family. Now that people take the initiative to come out, how can they let it go.
It's just a pity that there is no living mouth, otherwise this matter would be simpler and better. At least I won't know where to start because of Zheng Feng's departure.
In the second half of the night, the old lady was almost squatting in the cabinet, and she didn't dare to come out even if her legs were numb. The old lady who was squatting and squatting fell asleep against the cabinet, but she did not sleep peacefully.
One is that he is old, so it's strange to be able to sleep well like this. The other is that the cabinet is too narrow, and it is difficult to stuff a person in it, not to mention turning over or moving.
It's too hard for people to huddle in it.
The old lady fell asleep intermittently, and then woke up again and again because she was unwell. But she didn't dare to go out, she kept waiting and waiting, waiting, waiting,
When I was closed, I didn't feel that a slit of light penetrated through the outside, and then I realized that it was dawn.
It's dawn, and it's been so long, so those people must be gone.
After some hesitation, the old lady was really unable to hold back, stretched out her hand to push open the cabinet door, and walked out tremblingly.
It's dawn outside, it's almost noon. The bright and dazzling sunlight shone through the window, shaking people's eyes painfully.
The old lady subconsciously stretched out her hand to block her eyes, and when she got used to it, she walked out with her hands on the wall.
The courtyard was in shambles because of the fighting between the men, many things were broken, and blood was splattered everywhere, and there were several thick blood marks on the ground, as if someone had dragged the corpse.
This scene is very intense even during the day, let alone at night.
The old lady took a deep breath, she couldn't stay here anymore. One is dirty and infiltrating, and the other is unsafe.
Last night was also her fate, and she survived. The next time I meet it, I'm afraid it won't be so good.
But now, where can she go?
The old lady thought about it, and finally came up with a place. There, you're sure to be safe.
It didn't take long for Qian Lei to know the news of the old lady's assassination.
He couldn't keep watch all the time, because he gave the beggars on the side of the road a little silver for them to help keep an eye on.
If you want to say who will not attract the most attention, the beggar is undoubtedly the first to show up. The roadside is everywhere, and everyone is no longer surprised.
The little kid said that there was a lot of blood in it, and he followed the people who were watching the excitement and looked inside the door, and he was scared to death.
"Do you know who did it?"
"How do I know, I was sleeping in the alley last night and saw a few people running by, and I didn't think so much about it at the time, I just thought it was passing by, how did I know it would be...... It's goosebumps when you think about it. ”
If a group of animals found themselves, would they also kill him together?
"Okay!" Qian Lei took out a tael of silver and handed it to him, telling him to continue to stare at it, and at the same time be careful. If there is any situation, I hope he can tell him as soon as possible, of course, the benefits must be indispensable.
One or two pieces of silver is not a small amount of money here, what are the little beggars afraid of at this time, his eyes lit up and he grabbed the silver into his arms and patted his chest and said that it was no problem, let him sit at home and wait for the news.
"Oh, yes." When the little beggar was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something: "Although the courtyard looks scary, it seems that there are no corpses." ”
"No bodies?"
The little beggar thought about it carefully, nodded, and said that it was indeed not.
"No body? That's weird. Looking at the back of the little beggar leaving happily, Qian Lei muttered to himself.
