Besides, Liz, she is so tired these days, she hasn't had a good rest, the inn of Fugui Restaurant is very elegant and comfortable, after she finished grooming, she fell asleep. In the middle of the night, there was a sudden knock on the door in the next room, and someone shouted loudly: "Lord Bai, Lord Bai, we are from the state government yamen." ”

Liz was awakened by this cry and thought to herself, "Why did the third watch knock on Brother Bai's door in the middle of the night?" He's not a doctor, so can't he handle anything during the day? ”

"Knocking on the door on the fourth watch day affects the rest of the guests! Don't knock! A cold voice came from the darkness.

Ma Zhutou, who knocked on the door, was about to get angry, turned his head, and saw that it was Zhou Shande, and immediately lowered his voice an octave, and said with a smile: "Zhou Yixia, we are here by order, and we have no choice but to do so." ”

At this time, Shopkeeper Liu rushed over, stuffed a bag of money to Ma Zhutou, and said with a smile on his face: "Early tomorrow morning, I will inform Lord Bai to go to the yamen of the state capital, how about it?" It's a little bit of a thing, you take it and drink it. ”

Ma Zhutou accepted it when he saw it, took the money and said, "Then bother the shopkeeper Liu to notify you." After saying that, he left with a group of officials.

After the official left, Liz couldn't sleep anymore, she lay on the bed and thought about her thoughts: "Big Brother Bai is definitely not in the room, he probably heard that the Zhizhou here is a corrupt official, so he ran out in the middle of the night to repair Zhizhou!" However, this is an illegal act, and as a law enforcement officer, he uses illegal means to punish corrupt officials, and he doesn't know whether he should or not. ”

Lizzy guessed half right, Yutang was indeed not in the room at this time, but he was not rash and went to repair the corrupt officials. It turned out that two days ago, Yutang took Lizi on the way back to Beijing, and received a secret order, asking him to go to Chengzhou to cooperate with Qincha to investigate the case and secretly investigate Guan Zhizhou, so Yutang rushed to Chengzhou and decided to visit the yamen of the state capital at night that night.

At the time of the second watch, Yutang changed into night clothes, sneaked to the backyard of the yamen of the state capital, flew up to a tall tree, carefully observed the movement in the courtyard, he judged the location of Guan Zhizhou from the movement of the personnel, and then quietly touched Guan Zhizhou's house. Suddenly, Yutang noticed that not far from him, there was a dark shadow lying on the roof, and thought, "Who is this person?" The person who visited the yamen of the state capital at night should be a friend, so I will secretly observe for a while. ”

After a while, a person walked out of a brightly lit house, Yutang watched intently, and secretly exclaimed: "Isn't this the martial arts sect head Pang Gan in Master Pang's mansion?" How could he be here late at night? Am I continuing to monitor Kanchishu here? Or do you want to follow Pang Gan? ”

Yutang was hesitating, when he saw the black shadow lying on the roof suddenly get up and secretly chase Pang Gan. Yutang was even more surprised when he saw it, because judging from his body shape, footwork, and light skills, this black shadow must be Zhanzhao's sister Zhan Xue! Zhan Xue was the head catcher in Kaifeng Mansion, Yutang, Zhan Zhao and Zhan Xue often practiced martial arts together, and Yutang handled cases with Zhan Xue many times, so he was very familiar with her. Yutang thought secretly: "Isn't Zhan Xue in Kaifeng Mansion?" Why is it here? Could it be that he also received a secret order to investigate Guan Zhizhou? But why did she follow Pang Gan? Zhan Xue's martial arts are far superior to Pang Gan, since she has her to track Pang Gan, I will continue to monitor Guan Zhizhou here. ”

After a short while, I saw two masked men dressed in black jump onto the roof and quietly follow Zhan Xue. Yutang secretly shouted: "Not good! These two people's martial arts are not weak, Zhan Xue will suffer! So he performed a supreme light skill, and followed behind the two black shadows from a distance.

Zhan Xue followed Pang Gan intently and came to the back door of the post house. Pang Gan flew over the wall and entered the post house, and when Zhan Xue was about to follow, the two men in black who had been following her took out their darts and prepared to plot against Zhan Xue. Yutang saw that the man in black was about to make a move, so he raised his hands and shot out two stones, accurately hitting the soft and numb points of the two men in black, making them unable to move.

Zhan Xue noticed something strange behind her, hurriedly turned around, and saw two black-clothed people holding darts in their hands, but standing there motionless, and immediately understood everything. Yutang walked up to Zhan Xue and said, "You go to interrogate them, you have to stay alive, and I will chase Pang Gan." ”

Zhan Xue replied, "Okay, you can go quickly." After speaking, she came to the two of them, pulled out her waist knife, and slashed at their heads, and her two ears fell to the ground, and Zhan Xue whispered angrily: "Dare to plot against this girl!" If I don't leave you a mark, I can't solve the hatred in my heart! If you're lucky, if it had been a year ago, I would have killed you! Say, who sent you? ”

The two of them still stood in place without saying a word, Zhan Xue felt strange, and when she looked closely, she saw a trace of blood flowing from the corners of their mouths. Zhan Xue hurriedly walked closer, took their pulses, and found that the two had died of anger, apparently gritting their fangs and committing suicide by taking poison. Zhan Xue stomped her foot hatefully, scolded a few words, and went to chase Yutang.

Besides, Yutang, after handing over the two black-clothed people to Zhan Xue, he went to chase Pang Gan, he knew that Pang Gan had jumped into the post house, so he flew up to the outer wall of the post house, looked into the courtyard, but there was no trace of Pang Gan, so Yutang jumped on a big tree, hid in the dark, and carefully observed the movement in the post house. I saw that the lights in the courtyard of the post station were bright, but I did not see the soldiers patrolling, nor did I hear the footsteps of people. Yutang secretly screamed strangely, and continued to hide among the leaves, catching clues. After a while, Zhan Xue also jumped up the tree.

Yutang asked softly, "Why is the trial so fast?" ”

"Those two committed suicide."

After Pang Gan jumped into the post house, he disappeared. You see, something is wrong with the inn tonight, there is not a single soldier patrolling. ”

As he was talking, he suddenly said, "Ah! They followed the sound, and saw a room in the distance with the lights on, the door open, and the two of them hurriedly flew down the tree and ran towards the house where the screams were made. After rushing into the room, I saw a man who looked like an official lying in a pool of blood, with a knife in the neck and a large pool of blood on the ground.

Seeing this, Yutang shouted: "It's not good, it's a trick!" Come on! ”

Zhan Xue asked in confusion, "Why?" ”

Before Yutang could answer, there was already a loud shout outside: "Catch the assassin!" Catch the assassins! Dozens of officials with lanterns and torches poured towards the door of the house.

Zhan Xue looked around the room and saw that the back window was still dark, so she planned to leave through the back window. Yutang stopped Zhan Xue and said, "At this time, you should respond to all changes with the same. After saying that, he also put his waist knife and scabbard on the ground.

Zhan Xue felt strange, and when she was about to ask, Guan Zhizhou, Master Hu, and Liu Maoli, the general judge, and others rushed into the room with a group of arresters, surrounded Yutang and Zhan Xue, and Guan Zhizhou slowly ordered: "Take down the murderer of Qincha." ”

"You're spewing blood! Why do you say that we are murderers?! Zhan Xue yelled angrily at Guan Zhizhou.

"Look at your outfits! Sneaking into the post house and breaking into the Qincha room with a knife, what is the explanation? Guan Zhizhou still said slowly.

"We came here when we heard screams!" Zhan Xue explained.

"So do we! But when I came in, I only saw the two of you. Guan Zhizhou turned his head and asked Liu Tongjuan again: "Am I right?" ”

Liu Tongju frowned and nodded.

Master Hu pointed to Zhan Xue's knife and added, "And there is still blood on your knife!" ”

"If you kill someone, will there only be this little blood left on the knife?" Zhan Xue said dissatisfied.

"Of course, ordinary people can't do it, but as a martial arts master, make a move 'cut the throat with a quick knife', and after killing a person, there will be no blood stains left on the knife." Master Hu retorted.

At this time, after the autopsy, he came over and reported: "The body is still hot, which proves that it has just died, and there is only one wound on the neck on the whole body, which is a knife wound, and it is a fatal wound." ”

Master Hu said in a weird manner: "How is it? All the evidence points to you, what else do you want to quibble? ”

"Two killers died outside the north wall of the post house, and the blood on my knife is theirs, and it is likely that their accomplices sneaked into the post house to commit murder." Zhan Xue argued.

Guan Zhizhou ordered a headcatcher: "You take a few people to take a look." ”

Not long after, the head catcher came back and reported, "Lord Guan, we haven't found anything!" Not to mention the corpses, not even a drop of blood was seen. ”

At this time, Yutang was already able to completely conclude that everything tonight was carefully designed by Guan Zhizhou, in order to prove to someone that he and Zhan Xue were criminals.

"Nothing to say, right?" Guan Zhizhou waved his hand to the officials and ordered: "Come on, take it for me." ”
