Chapter 420: An Unsolved Case
() The night wind howled, the fallen leaves were swept by the wind, and the sound of collision was like the dragging footsteps of a dying man wandering in the wilderness.
"Mission done, hand in the token later." A man dressed in black stood on the steps, lined up with people dressed like him, and if the soldier was there, he would have exclaimed, these people were the killers who killed people and oversold goods.
"Yes!" A uniform voice sounded, and the man waved his hand to let them disperse, and went back to report it.
Gu Zongtang was still staying in the warehouse, and the silver in the entire room seemed to have a kind of magic power, making him unable to leave.
"Master, the task has been completed, and I have already instructed them to hand in the token in a moment." The man bowed his head respectfully.
Gu Zongtang replied nonchalantly: "Deal with it, otherwise you will be asked." I'll go to the study and give it to the king in a while. It took a great deal of effort for him to look away from the silver mountain and walk towards the study.
After he left, the man raised his eyes to look at the silver mountain in front of him, and there was a fiery greedy envy in his eyes, and it was only after a moment that he forced himself to leave this place full of temptation.
A black-clothed guard stood in the crowd with a slightly nervous expression, and if he looked closely, he could see the cold sweat on his forehead.
"Master, the tokens are here." The man placed all the wooden cards in front of Gu Zongtang, who replied and looked at them cursoly.
was about to reach out and put it away, but his pupils shrank: "One less?" He looked at the man with a cold serpentine gaze.
The man quickly knelt down: "Subordinates should be damned!" ”
"Call in, this king wants to know whose one is lost." Gu Zongtang closed his eyes impatiently: "This king's patience is limited. ”
The man was ordered to go out to count, and after a cup of tea, he brought two people to stand in front of Gu Zongtang, bowing his head and waiting for it to fall.
Gu Zongtang opened his eyes and looked at the black-clothed guard with a scrutinizing gaze. Without waiting for Gu Zongtang to ask for the guilt, the man quickly knelt down: "The subordinate is guilty!" ”
Gu Zongtang raised his eyebrows slightly, and sneered: "Do you think this king will keep waste?" ”
He stood up and paced over, looking down at the black-clothed guard who was kneeling on the ground, and a moment later a bloody streak appeared on the black-clothed guard's neck, and the man's eyes widened, but he had no chance to speak, and fell straight down.
Gu Zongtang picked up a piece of silk cloth to wipe the blood stains off, and spit out turbid breath: "Dispose of it." ”
"Yes
。 The man took the order, grabbed the people on the ground and prepared to leave, but he heard Gu Zongtang say, "You go and get the wooden plaque back." The king wants to see the results as soon as possible, and he can't find a head to see him. ”
"Do you need to solve Gu Ziyuan this time?" The man hesitated and asked.
Gu Zongtang frowned, clamoring to kill him in his heart, but he clearly knew that now was obviously not the time.
Although Gu Ziyuan has not yet climbed to a high position, he already has an official position, and he died inexplicably, and there will definitely be relevant forces to investigate thoroughly.
Gu Zongtang endured the killing intent in his heart: "Now is not the time, if you want this king to have an accident, just do it." ”
After speaking, he waved his hand: "Stand down." ”
The man's eyes lit up: "My subordinates don't dare." After bowing and retreating, Gu Zongtang looked at the wooden card on the table with a faint gaze and snorted coldly.
"Gu Ziyuan, I really want to get rid of you. While you can still see the sun the next day, hurry up and rejoice. Gu Zongtang muttered.
The man did not delay, he set off that night, wrapped himself tightly in black, and rushed all the way to the door of the county magistrate of Panjia County.
The stone lion at the town gate looked at the visitor coldly, but it did not stop his steps.
The man tapped his toes, jumped up to the eaves, judged the main house, and went straight away. Gu Ziyuan had already judged that something would happen, but he didn't expect someone to come over tonight.
Are you so impatient, do you want to kill me, or are you just looking for a wooden sign? Gu Ziyuan thought secretly in the dark, his clear eyes hidden in the night, looking at the roof that made a sound.
He chuckled in his heart, it seems that he shouldn't dare to kill me now, at least he doesn't want to get into trouble, and he is still a brain.
Gu Ziyuan was thinking about it, when it suddenly darkened in front of the window, Gu Ziyuan closed his eyes, breathed long, and seemed to be asleep.
There was a slight sound of rummaging through the cabinets in the room, and at first glance it sounded like rats coming out in the middle of the night to look for food.
Gu Ziyuan listened quietly to the man's movements, pursed his lips and smiled silently.
That wooden sign had already been put away by Bai Rong, and it wasn't in his room at all, so this person probably thought that such an important thing would be placed in his room.
After touching a stick of incense, the sound in the room quieted down, and after a while, only Gu Ziyuan was left lying on the bed.
He opened his eyes, and his heart was clear.
"Can't find it, so go back to your life?" He said secretly in his heart, but after a while, he dispelled this thought.
The killer is so ruthless, then the master behind it will definitely not be merciful. What kind of father raises what kind of son, in order to save his own life, that person will definitely stay here until he finds it.
Gu Ziyuan sighed, it seems that he is about to start acting, hoping to act until the person is satisfied.
Early in the morning of the second day, Gu Ziyuan woke up early, and after washing, he saw Bai Rong coming to him, and before she could speak, Gu Ziyuan said: "I'm afraid we can only break our teeth and swallow this case." ”
Bai Rong was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted: "What's the matter?" No evidence? ”
Gu Ziyuan nodded, a dark glint flickered in his eyes, and Bai Rong understood what he meant.
At the moment, I don't know if that person really left last night, Gu Ziyuan inexplicably felt that there were still people watching in the mansion, obviously not believing that they really didn't find evidence.
At this time, only Bai Rong didn't know the situation, Gu Ziyuan didn't want to tell her about last night's incident, worried that she would worry about his safety after she knew, which would affect her and put her in danger.
Reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, Gu Ziyuan knows this truth very well. If they succeed this time, they may be able to find something they didn't expect.
Gu Ziyuan sighed helplessly: "Do you know, yesterday I asked someone to check the scene, but I didn't find anything except dead people in one place." ”
Bai Rong lowered his eyes and was silent for a while before he said, "I think there should be something, but if the other party doesn't want us to know our identity, then we can do it." ”
She sighed: "I think maybe this matter will really turn into an unsolved case as you said." ”
Bai Rong raised his hand and brushed his broken hair, and shook his head in disappointment: "Forget it, it's just that I pity those dead people." ”
Gu Ziyuan also was silent: "Don't worry too much, let it be, maybe one day you will be able to solve the case." What's more, this matter should be handed over to the yamen to do, and I am not a master, so I can only watch them. ”
The two of them talked again, and they were ready to go to lunch.
Before leaving, Gu Ziyuan looked at a corner with a blank look. I don't know if he was overly sensitive, but someone seemed to be watching him in that place.
