The death of the grain merchant completely disrupted all of Qin Huaidao's plans, and also made Qin Huaidao a little more angry.

The second one to be brought in for interrogation was Shen Sanshi's concubine, a charming and moving woman, who lowered her head and didn't dare to look at people, nor dared to speak, Qin Huaidao couldn't see the other party's micro-expression, plus he was angry, and asked: "Raise your head and answer this official, why do you kill people?" ”

It's why they killed, not knowing who did it.

The question was abrupt, but also direct and fierce, as if the other party was the murderer.

This is a kind of interrogation technique, but the concubine didn't understand it, so she hurriedly said: "No, I didn't kill it." ”

Qin Huaidao's pupils instinctively shrank when he heard this answer, staring at the other party, normally speaking, if it wasn't a murderer, he should answer "I didn't", or ask rhetorically, "What did you say?" By no means "I didn't kill it."

Only the murderer would instinctively deny that he did not kill himself.

"Boom!"

A knife is out of the sheath, and the cold light shines in all directions.

"It's a good thing for me, this official killed you." Qin Huaidao pretended to be angry and roared, and the long knife slashed at the opponent's neck, killing intent and undisguised.

People will react instinctively in the face of danger, and Qin Huaidao is trying.

The long knife is like a rainbow, cutting through the void.

In the flash of light, the other party instinctively burst out.

Cheng Chumo thought that Qin Huaidao was really going to kill under his anger, and just as he was about to block it, he saw that this concubine's body exploded and retreated, that body method, that speed, was by no means an ordinary person, and he was forced to hold back when he came to his mouth, and he was a little stunned for a while.

Qin Huaidao stared at the other party, put away the long knife, and said coldly: "It's hidden very deep, and I was almost hidden by you." ”

"You're lying to me?" The other party reacted.

"Just discovered? It's late! "As soon as Qin Huaidao's long knife was shocked, he was about to make a move.

At this time, Cheng Chumo reacted and shouted: "Straight lady thief, I was almost deceived by you, and Lao Tzu killed you." ”

When the words fell, Cheng Chumo drew his knife and rushed up.

The next moment, Qin Huaidao saw an incredible scene, the little concubine suddenly smiled miserably, did not dodge at all, but rushed towards Cheng Chumo's knife, with an extra short knife in his hand, and went straight to Cheng Chumo's heart, one life for one life, and was suddenly shocked, and shouted: "Retreat!" ”

Cheng Chumo's body burst back.

However, the concubine did not escape after stabbing in the air, but stabbed herself in the heart with a backhand, decisively, fiercely, without hesitation, and there was a relaxed smile on the corner of her mouth, as if she was relieved.

Qin Huaidao was shocked and stepped forward to ask, "Why?" ”

"Someone wants the old man to die, and if the old man doesn't die, my whole family will have to die."

"Your family is in someone else's hands? That person arranged for you to come over to supervise Shen Sanshi? ”

The other party frowned in pain, and said in a weak voice: "I heard that adults have people in their hearts, and they have given many people a way to live, and the wages are also high, can you ask the adults to do one thing, kill all the families, and give the people of the world a way to live." ”

Qin Huaidao was stunned, what kind of request is this?

"Please!" The other party suddenly knelt down, slowly pulled out the short knife, let the blood drag rac, and suddenly roared: "God, how unfair you are, I just want to live, why is it so difficult." ”

When the words fell, his body was paralyzed to the ground, and he couldn't blink his eyes.

"Boom!"

A blast of thunder rang out, shaking the void.

The wind is blowing, the cold winter wind is as indifferent and sharp as a knife, blowing through Chang'an City, blowing through Shen Mansion, blowing through the face of the concubine, the black hair is flying in the wind, it is so weak, so helpless.

The charming eyes were just open, motionless, eager to see something, and gradually grayed.

Qin Huaidao looked at those eyes, his heart was heavy, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word, the cry of the concubine before she died kept exploding in her mind like thunder - just want to live, why is it so difficult?

yes, why?!

For a long time, Qin Huaidao was speechless and felt sad.

Cheng Chumo didn't think much about it, and after waiting for a while, he saw that Qin Huaidao still didn't say a word, and couldn't help but remind: "Brother, do you want to check this person?" ”

Qin Huaidao sighed, took a few steps forward, squatted down, touched the other party's eyes with his hand and whispered: "You just want to live, but some people don't allow it, in fact, I just want to live, and some people don't allow it, when will God be fair?" But I promise you that those behind it will be punished. ”

The words fell, the hands swiped, and the eyes closed!

Qin Huaidao got up, gritted his teeth and said, "Check!" Whoever it is, there must be a price. ”

"This person is really, he would rather die than say who is behind him, how much to say, we can save a lot of things." Cheng Chumo said a little depressed.

"It's just a knife used by someone to spy on Shen Sanshi, no wonder it can be assassinated at close range, no wonder Shen Sanshi didn't resist at all, Shen Sanshi probably didn't know that his concubine was someone else's knife before he died, so it seems that the other two grain merchants may also die from the people around him." Qin Huaidao said and left.

After a while, Qin Huaidao returned to Shen Sanshi's study, searched for it, and did not find the account books, but Wu said that Shen Sanshi went back to the study to check the accounts after dinner, which was not normal.

Books, burned!

Poor people are also hateful people.

Qin Huaidao left with a ball of evil fire, and under the leadership of Cheng Chumo, he went to another grain merchant, a set of three courtyards, no less than Shen Sanshi's mansion, and saw the corpse in the main hall, guarded by several palace guards, and there was a mark on his neck, not big, but very deep.

"Where did you find the body?" Qin Huaidao looked at Cheng Chumo.

Cheng Chumo immediately said: "On the side of the road outside the door of the house, the distance is less than ten zhang. ”

"Where's the coachman?" Qin Huaidao asked.

Cheng Chu was silent, looked at the person next to him, and the other party hurriedly said: "My lord, my subordinates have asked the people in the house, and the coachman is missing." ”

"Do you have the driver's identity?"

The other party hurriedly said: "Called Wang Er, he is a house slave, a coachman, but he also has the duty of guard, the people in the house say that he is deeply trusted, and he goes in and out, since he came to Chang'an to do business, this person has been there, and he usually does not interact with the people in the house, and no one knows where the specific person is." ”

"Straight lady thief, isn't the clue broken again?" Cheng Chumo scolded angrily.

"Your Excellency!"

At this time, Yu Chi Baolin came in a hurry, accompanied by Fang Xuanling and Li Jing.

"I've seen Lord Fang, Master Li." Qin Huaidao stepped forward to salute.

"What's going on now?" Fang Xuanling asked.

Qin Huaidao didn't answer immediately, but looked at Yu Chi Baolin and asked, "Has the other one been checked?" ”

"I just checked, the shopkeeper of the restaurant said that there was also the account room with him, because the two often went to the restaurant, the shopkeeper met, asked for a table of meals, said to talk about things and not let me disturb, I couldn't wait for a long time, and the shopkeeper asked Xiao Er to go in to check only to find that he was dead, and the account room was gone."

"Who's in the bookkeeper?" Qin Huaidao asked.

Yu Chi Baolin hurriedly said: "I have checked, the family said that the other party's surname is Zhang, and the specific name is not clear, and I don't know where the name is, it is said that it is hired, and I can't ask anything." ”

In the era when there was no surveillance, it was impossible to check just one surname.

Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that the murderers are all arranged by the people behind the grain merchants, one to supervise, and the other to extinguish the mouth, and the means are ruthless and chilling.

With such the same means of control and such a quick response, could the master behind the three grain merchants be the same person?

Qin Huaidao had a flash of inspiration, as if he had caught something.
