As he spoke, Bai Ling took out a newly made wedding card from the table and handed it to Bai Shijun, "She sent me a wedding card before, and she asked someone to send a formal one this afternoon." ”

Bai Shijun took it and looked at it, he pondered for a while, frowned, and said, "I heard that it hasn't been peaceful outside recently, so don't go to the wedding banquet in the evening?" ”

Bai Ling shook his head, "I don't have to worry about being too peaceful, there are fourteen, I must be too peaceful." But it's kind of strange if I'm going alone. ”

Bai Yi chewed, while taking the wedding card from Bai Shijun and looked at it, after roughly browsing the process of the day, he also frowned and said, "There was nothing special that day, even if Shen Shi was seated too early, I would leave the Tai Hospital at most." ”

"Shen Shimoah......" Bai Ling thought for a moment, "It's a little late, but it's okay." Then I will leave home in advance, and I will wait for you at the intersection of Ruzi Road at the end of Shen Shimo? ”

Bai Shijun still looked a little hesitant.

"We can leave after eating," Bai Yi said, "Anyway, the main thing is a ceremony, just when the ceremony arrives, no one will stop us if we leave early." ”

……

Jingzhao Yin Yamen, at this time, all night bright.

It's just summer, and the middle and early part of May is the time when farming is busy. At this time in previous years, every household was busy with double robbery - grabbing crops and planting crops, and the whole family worked closely together, and occasionally had to give a hand to the people in the village who were too busy.

At this time of the year, the government also begins to prepare for the future rations.

However, this year, Zheng Mi in the government office had no time to care about this matter at all.

A total of 117 resettlement sites were successively erected in the west and north of Pingjing City. So far, these resettlement sites, which are about a dozen miles away from the city, have accommodated nearly 20,000 displaced people.

In this way, the passage of the displaced people into the city was finally blocked.

The Cabinet's urgent delivery of fiefdoms to the neighboring state capitals was most important for food and temporary shelter. Although there were difficulties on all sides, fortunately, the officials at the time who left and right the state capital were not vain, and the task of diversion and resettlement was already on the agenda.

Still, more and more people are coming from the north.

"Caught up." Zheng Mi dropped the pen, "I really caught up." ”

Beside Zheng Mi, Shen Jichuan still did not leave, and he took the initiative to ask Emperor Jianxi to cooperate with Jingzhao Yin Yamen to deal with the disposal of the displaced people. The errand was hard and dangerous, but he was the right person to do at the moment.

Zheng Mi scratched his scalp vigorously, "Old general, how many troops did you spend when you dealt with the displaced people who attacked the yamen?" ”

"This reference makes no sense." Shen Jichuan said softly, "Pingjing is not as short of food as the northern border, even if you don't go out of the city, you can still survive by begging for a living in the city, and no matter how bad it is, you can build a bitter gourd shed to live in." If you set up a porridge shed outside, there won't be many people who will run more than ten miles for a bowl of thick porridge. ”

Zheng Mi took a deep breath.

"They are all the people, and they must be appeased." Zheng Mi said softly, "But now this group of people in the inner city obviously has a problem......

Shen Jichuan asked again, "How many displaced people have entered the city now?" ”

"It's hard to confirm," Zheng Mi frowned, "Since last year, I have put a lot of it in scattered, and last month, I saw the night tour of Anhu Lake, and I wanted to have fun with the people. Right now...... At least in the early thousands, maybe more. Hundreds of people have already been arrested in prison, and arresting people is not a long-term solution, but it is still necessary to deter. ”

"Shock." Shen Jichuan frowned slightly, "There are a total of 370,000 people in Pingjing City alone, and if you count more than 500,000 people in the surrounding suburbs and towns, that is a population of 900,000 or nearly a million. Who will be shocked in the end by the shock you make? Those golden people hide in the crowd, will they be afraid when they see this shock, or will they laugh? ”

"Oh, I know." Zheng Mi glanced at Shen Jichuan, "If I can't figure this out, I won't want to have a vegetarian meal here." ”

He pushed the case file to the table on Shen Jichuan's side, "I still think that this case is the breakthrough." ”

Shen Jichuan looked at the case file and did not reach out to flip through it.

"The key now is to find the next victim before they do." Zheng Mi said softly.

"This Yingxiang who was saved this time has always been by the side of the county lord of Yikang, and has been staying in the mountains for the past few years, and the interpersonal relationship is very simple.

"Since there is a high probability that the victim of each time is involved with the victim of the previous time, we can track down those who are close to her one by one. To see who has something in common with those who have been killed before, focus on guarding and waiting for the rabbit. ”

Shen Jichuan shook his head, "Where is the commonality?" The nine people who have been involved in the accident, including men and women, old and young, but the murderer is still very familiar with everyone's life trajectory, and can always pick the weakest moment in defense...... What kind of murderer can know all this information, does Lord Zheng have the answer in his heart? ”

Zheng Mi didn't answer, which really made him feel incredible.

Shen Jichuan continued, "And every time before hurting someone, these people must first try to inform the yamen, and always let us be the first to arrive at the scene,"

As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes, "Why?" Don't they want to make a big deal out of it? Impossible. ”

Zheng Mi faintly felt that something was becoming clear in his mind, but this clear feeling was fleeting, and it quickly became chaotic.

Shen Jichuan's knife stood on the ground, and he held the handle of the knife tightly with both hands, "...... It's nothing more than pressing it up little by little, until the last straw. ”

Zheng Mi looked back at Shen Jichuan, "Has the old general already figured out something?" ”

"Yes, but I really can't do anything about this case." Shen Jichuan said softly, "I can only say that if it comes to a critical juncture where there is no way to retreat, I can give Master Zheng a cover." ”

In an instant, Zheng Mi's heartstrings suddenly plucked.

"The old general doesn't have to play this dumb riddle with me, if you are willing to point it out, I will naturally figure it out." His voice was cold, "You mean, some of these homeless people in the city want to deliberately incite conflicts between the local residents and the homeless, so that we can make trouble ourselves. ”

Shin Jichuan did not respond.

But for Zheng Mi at this time, some things suddenly became clear - for example, why the victim was not killed with a knife, but was poured boiling water, and the situation worsened one by one.

Perhaps, the murderers just want these people to live, or rather, to live to a certain point.

"What does the old general mean by the bottom line?" Zheng Mi suddenly frowned, he finally had some memories at this moment, "You don't want to kill all these homeless people in the city." ”
