Chapter 33: Fireworks-11

With this shout, the man raised his knife and rushed straight to Guan Tingxiao's chest. Although Guan Tingxiao couldn't move his legs, his hands were still available, so he hurriedly used his hands. He thought that the other party was weak and he could remove his knife at once, but he didn't want that although the man looked very thin, he had great strength in his hand, Guan Tingxiao not only failed to take the knife, but he was also cut a wound. The man couldn't strike, and immediately attacked the second and third times, Guan Tingxiao was left and right, and his upper arm was injured one after another. A gunshot rang out, and the man fell to the ground!

Guan Tingxiao looked in the direction of the gunshot, and saw Sun Yibing sitting on a horse with a pistol in his hand. It turned out that he had fired the shot just now. It's just that his shot didn't hit the key point of the attacker, I saw that the man struggled to get up, and still moved towards Guan Tingxiao, but his action was already slow under the injury, and he was soon captured by Sun Yibing, who came on horseback.

"Yue Yuan, how are you? You okay? Sun Yibing asked Guan Tingxiao while holding down the perpetrator.

"I'm fine." Guan Tingxiao's hands were covered with blood, and he finally pulled his right leg out from under the horse.

Seeing that Guan Tingxiao's life was safe, Sun Yibing breathed a sigh of relief. And over there, the restrained assailant began to scold: "Guan Tingxiao, you raped and plundered, killed my wife, and I won't let you go as a ghost!" ”

"Joke, when did I kill your wife?!" Guan Tingxiao scolded coldly - he has never had anything to do with a married man, even if he is engaged, he will pay attention to avoid suspicion. Why did a "snatching wife" suddenly come out?

However, the man's answer was greatly beyond his expectations - "Li Ximeng is my wife who has not passed through the door!" ”

Although the villa outside the Guanjia city was not heavily guarded, a guard company was also arranged. Company Commander Zhang saw Guan Tingxiao coming back bloodstained from a distance, and his face turned white with fright: "Young marshal! What's wrong?!Where are you hurt?! Then, he saw Sun Yibing following behind with someone, and hurriedly pointed at the man and asked, "Did he hurt the young marshal?" ”

Guan Tingxiao didn't answer, and walked in with a blushing face. Company Commander Zhang became more and more frightened in his heart, and he wanted to chase after him when he raised his feet, but Sun Yibing stopped him: "You don't have to go over, find a doctor to treat the wound of the young marshal." And take this man down, so that you will not judge him, and do not torture him, but put him in custody for the time being. ”

Company Commander Zhang agreed again and again, and hurriedly led people to escort the assailant down. Sun Yibing saw that this side was properly handled, so he walked to Guan Tingxiao's room.

Guan Tingxiao was in the study at the moment, and as soon as Sun Yibing walked in, he heard him yelling at the phone: "Got out?" He's my adjutant, what is he running around without my orders?! Something? What's more important than mine?! Anyway, let him call me back in half an hour, or you will be removed from his post with him!! ”

Guan Tingxiao finished roaring and slammed on the phone. Annoyed, he swept everything on the desk to the floor.

Sun Yibing knew that Guan Tingxiao was in a bad mood, so he didn't say much, just walked over and picked up the phone and put it back on the table, and then comforted him slowly: "Yue Yuan, you calm down first." I looked at the man's expression a little strangely just now, and I felt as if he had some brain problems, so what he said was not necessarily credible. You get things figured out first, don't worry. ”

Guan Ting didn't answer angrily, but his eyes subconsciously glanced at the phone on the table. Sun Yibing guessed that he probably had the heart to ask but was hindered by his identity, so he walked over and called for him: "Hey, help me pick up Li Ximeng's film company." ”

The phone rang a few times and finally connected, and a voice came faintly from the microphone. I only heard Sun Yibing speak: "Hey, hello, I'm here in the Dashuai Mansion, and I want to ask your manager about something." ”

It is estimated that the head of the Marshal's Mansion is too loud, and soon there is a voice on the other side of the phone again, and it is estimated that the manager has been found. Sun Yibing asked, "Manager Wang, I want to ask if Li Ximeng has a fiancΓ©?" ”

"FiancΓ©?!" Probably the person on the other side was too surprised, and this sound could be heard clearly even from a long distance from the phone. Guan Tingxiao pricked up his ears, and the man who listened to the microphone replied next: "No!" Ximeng didn't even have a boyfriend before his death, how can he say that he is a fiancΓ©? ”

"But our guards caught a man who claimed to be Li Ximeng's fiancΓ©."

"It's impossible!" Manager Wang categorically refused, "Ximeng has worked in our company for more than three years, and I can completely confirm that she has absolutely no fiancΓ©!" ”

Sun Yibing heard the sound of a sigh of relief from beside him, and turned his eyes slightly, finding that Guan Tingxiao had turned around. He knew that Guan Tingxiao had just heard the manager's answer, so he continued: "This is the best." However, I still have to trouble Manager Wang to come over and confirm who this person is...... No, not in Shuaifu, you come to the villa in Qianfeng Mountain on the outskirts of the city. ”

Sun Yibing hung up the phone and said to Guan Tingxiao: "The manager of the film company said that Li Ximeng was not engaged before his death, and the person just now should not be his fiancΓ©." I've asked the manager to come over and recognize him, and I should be able to confirm who the assailant is in a moment. ”

Guan Tingxiao nodded.

After the two finished talking, there was a knock at the door, Sun Yibing walked over and opened the door, and found that it was the family doctor who walked in with a medicine box. Sun Yibing let people into the house, and then said to Guan Tingxiao: "You take care of the wound first, and when the people come, everything will be figured out." ”

In Kanto Castle, Waren Pharmacy.

"You say, all the coca in the hands of the shopkeeper Pan is gone?" Adjutant Li frowned.

"Yes." The drugstore guy replied tremblingly, "His leaves are usually stored in the drawer under the table in the middle room." After the shopkeeper's accident this morning, Dr. Liu and I opened the drawer, only to find that all the coca leaves in it were gone......"

"And how much gold smoke can these coca leaves make?" Gu Congzhou asked.

"This ......," the young man looked around, and when he saw that no one was talking for him, he stumbled and said, "There is actually no fixed number for this dose, but it is just ......"

"Just what?!"

"It's just that Dr. Liu and I checked the amount of crows that disappeared at the same time and found that ...... I found that the amount of crow pian is a bit small......"

The young man's words were a little twisted, and Adjutant Li didn't understand much for a while, but Gu Congzhou immediately understood what the young man meant, and he asked: "You mean, compared to the dosage that Shopkeeper Pan usually mixes coca into crow pian, so many coca leaves should need more crow pian, right?" In other words, the concentration of coca in the golden cigarette made by Shopkeeper Pan last night is likely to be much greater than usual, right?! ”

The young man glanced at Gu Congzhou, then peeked at Adjutant Li, and nodded with a shrunken head.

"How much larger is that dose?"

"It's about three ...... Two or three times......" The young man said, seeing Gu Congzhou's face change drastically, he hurriedly added, "But that has to be the case of adding those leaves, or maybe that person just took the leaves away but didn't add them......"

However, Gu Congzhou didn't want to think about the situation so optimistically, he turned his head to Adjutant Li and said, "Adjutant Li, I think it's best to tell the marshal and the young marshal about this matter as soon as possible." I asked the doctors who were familiar with coca, and they said that it was easy to hallucinate and even kill themselves if they overdosed on it. I heard that this boss Pan has made friends in the city with heads and faces, and now the murderer has taken away the golden smoke with such a high coca content, and killed people......"

"I understand." Adjutant Li said, "I'll tell the marshal and the young marshal about this." ”

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, they suddenly heard a knock at the door, and when they opened it, they saw that a guard had run in. The man ran directly to Adjutant Li and whispered a few words in Adjutant Li's ear, and after Adjutant Li listened, his expression changed instantly.

"That's what the young marshal said at the time?" Adjutant Li asked.

The guard nodded, his face seemed to be a little worried: "Adjutant Li, you better hurry over." ”

"Okay, I see."

On the side, Gu Congzhou saw that the two of them looked different, and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? ”

"It's nothing, the young marshal has something to look for me, let me go over, just right, I can tell him about it by the way."

"Adjutant Li, if it's convenient, I'll go with you." Gu Congzhou said, "If the young marshal asks about some specific things, I can also answer them directly." ”

"I'll go too!" Shen Yu said, "I found out about that murderer!" If he wants to ask, he can ask me! ”

Adjutant Li thought for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay." ”

On the outskirts of Kanto City, in a villa.

The doctor bandaged Guan Tingxiao's hands, cleaned up a few punctures on his body, and then suggested: "Although there are many wounds on the young marshal's body, fortunately, they are not big, just pay attention to keep the wounds clean and not inflamed." Because I am afraid that the iron nails will rust, I suggest that the young marshal should still get a tetanus shot. ”

Guan Tingxiao nodded. The doctor took out the injection from the medicine box and injected Guan Tingxiao with the medicine.

"The young marshal has been careful not to get water on the wound in the past two days, and to avoid eating spicy things. Once the wound heals, it'll be fine. ”

Guan Tingxiao nodded and waved his hand to let the doctor go down. The doctor packed up his things and walked out of the study, and at this time, Sun Yibing, who was waiting outside the door, walked in.

"How?" Sun Yibing asked with concern.

"It's all skin trauma." Guan Tingxiao replied.

"That's good." Sun Yibing nodded, and then said, "Then you can rest for a while." ”

Sun Yibing just wanted to turn around after speaking, but Guan Tingxiao stopped him: "Zheheng! ”

"Huh?" Sun Yibing turned around.

"That man...... Where is it now? ”

"I had the commander of the guard company lock him up, and I told them not to interrogate him without your orders."

Guan Tingxiao nodded. His expression changed, as if he had something to say. Sun Yibing could see it, so he waited quietly. After coming over for a while, Guan Tingxiao said: "Actually, before I asked her to dinner, I once asked people to ask her if she had a lover. ”

"Huh?" Sun Yibing was stunned for a moment, and then realized, "You said Li Ximeng? ”

Guan Tingxiao pursed his lips, which can be regarded as a default. He continued: "I didn't really want to do anything with her, I didn't expect to kill her......"

Sun Yibing knew the whole story of Guan Tingxiao and Li Ximeng's poisoning, and comforted: "It's just an accident, don't worry too much about it." ”

Guan Tingxiao seemed to stop talking, and after a while, he suddenly asked, "How old is your son now?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's more than three years old. Sun Yibing said.

"Actually, sometimes I envy you, you are from an ordinary family and have a beautiful family." Guan Tingxiao yawned, "Unlike me, every move is controlled, it seems to be beautiful, but in fact, there is no freedom of my own at all." ”

"Actually, everyone has their own happiness and misfortune," Sun Yibing said, looking at Guan Tingxiao's yawning appearance and asking, "Are you a smoker?" ”

Guan Tingxiao sniffed and nodded: "I have to take a sip." So saying, he beckoned the guards to bring him a smoking set.

"Speaking of which," Sun Yibing took out two large cigarettes from his pocket, "How about you try this." ”

"Huh?" Guan Tingxiao looked at the two big black and gold cigarettes in Sun Yibing's hands, and was a little surprised, "Where did you come from?" ”

"I know a master who makes cigarettes, and he has some recipes that can make the big cigarettes last longer after smoking. You can smoke this kind of cigarette twice a day, and it will save you from suddenly becoming addicted to smoking and delaying things. ”

"Ho! I don't think you know this kind of master? Guan Tingxiao was interested, he put the big cigarette handed by Sun Yibing into the smoking gun, and said with a smile, "Then I have to try it well." ”

"Hmm." Sun Yibing looked at him with an indescribable look in his eyes, "It will definitely make you unforgettable." ”

Over there, Guan Tingxiao had already lit a fire, and a sweet fragrance spread in the air. Guan Tingxiao took a sip and couldn't help but praise: "Well, this taste is really different, there is a sweetness of toffee." Zheheng, is the master you know in Kanto City, and you have a chance to introduce it to me. ”

"Okay." Sun Yibing said, "You smoke slowly, I'll go out first." ”

"Okay." Guan Tingxiao was already lying on the recliner, and puffs of smoke swirled between his mouth and nose. Seeing this scene, Sun Yibing relieved his heart and turned around and left the study.

Sun Yibing left the study and was about to go back to his room, when he raised his eyes, he saw several people hurriedly walking into the villa. The leader saw Sun Yibing and opened his mouth to greet: "Commander Sun, is the young marshal here?" ”

"Adjutant Li," Sun Yibing spoke, "Yue Yuan, he is resting in the study. ”

Adjutant Li nodded: "The young marshal just came to me, I don't know what happened?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a misunderstanding, and now it's been solved."

"That's good." Adjutant Li spoke, "It just so happens that I also have something to tell the young marshal. ”

Adjutant Li wanted to go inside as he spoke, but Sun Yibing stopped him: "Adjutant Li, Yue Yuan, he was not in a good mood just now, and he is resting at this moment." You'd better wait a while before you go in. ”

"What's wrong? What happened to the young marshal? ”

Sun Yibing looked at the two people behind Adjutant Li, so he beckoned to Adjutant Li. Adjutant Li understood and followed Sun Yibing to the side. Only then did Sun Yibing tell Adjutant Li about Guan Tingxiao being ambushed on horseback just now.

"What?!" Adjutant Li was taken aback when he heard this, "There is such a thing?!" So how is the young marshal now? ”

"Nothing, just some skin trauma that the doctor has already dealt with him. He's not in a good mood at the moment, though, and I think it's better for you to leave him alone for a while. When he's in a good mood, he'll come out naturally. ”

Hearing Sun Yibing say this, Adjutant Li looked embarrassed. He knew Guan Tingxiao's temperament, and when the guards looked for him just now, they also said that Guan Tingxiao sounded in a bad mood. If you go in at this time, you will inevitably touch his head, but the matter of the golden smoke is also very urgent, how can this be good?

While the two of them were talking, Gu Congzhou and Shen Yu were also waiting aside, and Shen Yu had been looking around expectantly, not knowing what he was looking at. Gu Congzhou looked strange and asked in a low voice, "What are you looking at?" ”

"I want to say, this soldier doesn't look so straight...... Shen Yu whispered to Gu Congzhou and bit his ear, "I've been looking at it since just now, the waist board of these soldiers around here is not much straighter than mine, I don't think it's up to the 'waist plate is particularly straight' that the old man said." If you really want to say, the waist of the official is really straight. As he spoke, he pointed to the person in front of him who was talking to Adjutant Li.

Gu Congzhou saw him pointing at Sun Yibing and whispered: "That's a friend of Young Marshal Guan, when Young Marshal Guan was poisoned, he once went to the Marshal's Mansion to visit his illness. ”

"Oh." Shen Yu nodded, "That should be fine, the young marshal's good friend, it shouldn't hurt him." ”

For some reason, hearing Shen Yu's words, Gu Congzhou was stunned for no reason. He couldn't help but subconsciously look at the person in front of him. He vaguely remembered that the man's surname seemed to be Sun, as if he was an officer in the province. As Shen Yu said just now, this person's back does have a kind of straightness unique to being a soldier, even in this casual occasion.

Very tall, straight back, provincial, officer...... These words swirled in Gu Congzhou's mind, so much so that Gu Congzhou had a trace of doubt for no reason. However, reason told him that this was impossible, that he was a friend of the young marshal and should not be a prisoner......

While he was struggling in his mind, Adjutant Li and the man finished their conversation and walked over together. Adjutant Li said to Gu Congzhou and Shen Yu, "The young marshal is resting now, let's wait a while before going in." ”

Gu Congzhou nodded. He looked at Sun Yibing on the side, nodded and said, "Captain Sun." ”

Sun Yibing looked at him with some surprise, and only recognized him after a while: "You are the doctor who treated Yue Yuan that day?" ”

"Yes." Gu Congzhou nodded, he just wanted to continue speaking, but suddenly his body shook - just when Sun Yibing spoke, he seemed to smell a faint sweet fragrance! It smells like golden smoke!!

Gu Congzhou's body slammed suddenly! He jerked up his eyes to look at Sun Yibing.

Sun Yibing noticed the change in Gu Congzhou's eyes, and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Oh, nothing." Gu Congzhou adjusted his expression, and he asked quietly, "Captain Sun just came out of the young marshal's room?" ”

"Yes."

"I wonder what the young marshal is doing now?"

"The young marshal is resting."

While Sun Yibing spoke, Gu Congzhou was carefully identifying the smell on his body. However, the sweet fragrance just now is not smellable at the moment. Gu Congzhou wasn't sure if the smell had dissipated or if it was just his own delusion. Looking at the closed door of the room over there, Gu Congzhou's heart became more and more unsteady, so he proposed to Adjutant Li: "Adjutant Li, let's go in early and report to the young marshal." ”

"What's wrong? What's the urgency? Sun Yibing asked Adjutant Li. Adjutant Li just wanted to answer, but Gu Congzhou was anxious, pointed to Sun Yibing's shoes and said, "Head Sun, what did you step on under your shoes?" ”

"What?" Sun Yibing glanced at his leather shoes and looked at Gu Congzhou inexplicably. Adjutant Lee didn't know what was going on. Shen Yu and Gu Congzhou have known each other for a long time, and they know that Gu Congzhou will never say this for no reason, so he hurriedly said: "Hey, I saw it just now, it's quite a big piece!" ”

Sun Yibing didn't feel that there was something wrong with his feet, but when he heard both of them say this, he also subconsciously raised his left foot. Gu Congzhou didn't care about the image, so he leaned over and looked at the pattern on the sole of his shoe, and he was surprised at this look - the pattern of the leather shoes under Sun Yibing's feet was exactly the same as the bloody shoe print in Heren Pharmacy!!

Thinking of this, Gu Congzhou didn't have time to say more, so he rushed directly to Guan Tingxiao's study. Adjutant Li was taken aback and shouted, "Doctor Gu! ”

"Smack!" Gu Congzhou's wrist was grabbed. Sun Yibing glared at him vigilantly: "What are you going to do?" ”

"Captain Sun, what is the young marshal doing in the house?" Gu Congzhou looked directly at Sun Yibing and asked, "Is he smoking?" ”

Hearing "smoking" once, everyone present was shocked, and Sun Yibing's calm eyes flickered for a moment. Gu Congzhou noticed this change in him, and hurriedly shouted: "Adjutant Li, go and see the young marshal!" Don't let him smoke that big cigarette!! ”

Adjutant Li wanted to go to the study as he spoke, but at this moment, he heard an exclamation from the studyβ€”

"Ahh ——”
