Chapter 104: Saving Grace
This man is Gu Li.
Gu Li was still dressed in black, with black clothes, black pants and black shoes, not even his fingers were exposed, his face was covered with black cloth, and only a pair of shrewd and sharp eyes were revealed.
He twisted his neck and looked around the room, his eyes lingering on Zhang Jiusheng for a moment, and finally fixed his gaze on Yun Sheng.
"Long time no see, Miss Eldest Sun." Gu Li said with a smile.
He was originally a person with crooked eyebrows and eyes, and when he laughed, his eyes seemed to turn into two thick arcs, but even if he smiled, it didn't make Yun Sheng feel how kind he was.
Yun Sheng subconsciously picked up the boots in his hand, and then moved his gaze to Gu Li's boots.
Same.
No, there are still some differences, the edge lines near the sole of the boot are not the same.
"Who are you?" Yun Sheng asked.
"Subordinate Gu Li."
He claimed to be a subordinate, and he took the initiative to put Yun Sheng in a high position.
In fact, if Yun Sheng was still the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Li would not need to be so humble.
"I haven't heard of that name." Yunsheng told the truth.
Gu Li was not annoyed, he pulled a chair over, sat on the edge of the bed, and said, "Naturally, because I didn't see anyone at that time." ”
Yun Sheng didn't speak, under the futon, she grabbed Zhang Jiusheng's hand tightly, and the temperature of her palm came one by one, making her feel relieved.
For the person in front of him, Zhang Jiusheng did not perceive the danger. But Yun Sheng seemed to be scared, he didn't quite understand Yun Sheng's inexplicable emotion, so he could only hold her hand.
Over time, Zhang Jiusheng understood that Yun Sheng was not afraid of Gu Li, but of some of the things that Gu Li was about to say.
Gu Li took one of the boots from Yun Sheng's hand, he turned the boots over, and then reached out and took off the boot on his foot, two very similar boots, placed together, the difference became obvious.
But the bottom of Gu Li's boot also has the pattern of half a plum blossom.
Everyone was stunned, including Zhang Tong.
"Gu ...... Gu ...... "Zhang Tong was speechless.
"Are you a pigeon?" Gu Li glanced at him, and then said: "The people under my hands, including me, will have half a plum blossom pattern at the bottom of our boots, except for this one, there is no semicolon." ”
"That Chen Jinzhi ......" Yun Sheng wanted to speak and stopped.
"It used to be my people."
"And then?"
"Later?" Gu Li simply crossed his legs on the chair and put the two boots on himself, and his tone of voice sounded indifferent, but in fact, there was a certain fierceness: "As you can see, he is dead." ”
"Who killed it?"
Gu Li tilted his head and thought for a long time, then shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know." ”
In fact, Gu Li stayed in Fan County this time for two purposes, but he only told Zhang Tong one of them, and the other purpose was to find Chen Jinzhi and take him back to be punished.
Chen Jinzhi is a traitor.
The person Yun Sheng saw under the table in the Prime Minister's Mansion back then was Chen Jinzhi.
It's just that Chen Jinzhi at that time was still under Gu Li's hands, and he was still loyal.
But people always have all kinds of desires, Chen Jinzhi was picked up by Gu Li from the street, the first time they met, Chen Jinzhi was lying on the street in rags, not far away was a dirty and messy garbage alley full of flies flying, his legs didn't know who had discounted, and the blood stained half of his already not very good clothes, making him look even more embarrassed.
At that time, Chen Jinzhi thought that he was going to die, like a cockroach, or like a street rat, living in this chaotic world, and finally died in an unknown corner.
There was no one to collect his body, and no one remembered him.
Until Gu Li stood in front of him.
Gu Li took him back, gave him food, gave him drink, and gave him everything he had never had.
And Chen Jinzhi gave Gu Li loyalty.
It's just that this loyalty didn't last long.
When a person comes out of the darkness and sees the light, he will start to be less satisfied, he will start to inch in, he will want more.
This is the case with Chen Jinzhi.
"The horse has stumbled, and I am not a god, so naturally there are times when I look away." Gu Li smiled, as if mocking himself.
It was this time that Li Hongzhi, who had been dormant for a long time, suffered a heavy blow.
Gu Li didn't know when Chen Jinzhi was bought by Wu Zhidun, and the news he handed over to Chen Jinzhi to pass on, every copy passed through Wu Zhidun's hands.
That was also the first time, Wu Zhidun arranged for the killer to want Li Hongzhi's life.
They also lost several brothers as a result.
Gu Li is not an idiot, he knows that there is a spy in his team, but he doesn't want to believe that Chen Jinzhi is that spy, he rescued it with his own hands.
Shouldn't the grace of saving lives be reciprocated?
Ei also got into a fight with him because of this, and for the first time there was a rift between the brothers.
"And then?" This is Zhang Tongzai asking.
Gu Li glanced at him, clenched his fist and lightly hammered Zhang Tong's arm, and said, "You, you don't know anything." ”
"I ......" Zhang Tong was speechless.
He really didn't know anything, although he was called brothers and sisters with their group at that time, and often nested together, but only he and Nalan thought about being coroners, so they didn't care much about the changes in those brothers. Usually a new person, after a brief introduction, it is considered to know, in fact, the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, and the head turns as if he has never seen it.
For Chen Jinzhi, the sense of existence is extremely low, and Zhang Tong doesn't remember him, it's too normal.
"Do you know what Lin Lubai did at that time?"
"What?"
"She let Chen Jinzhi go."
"I didn't understand why you all of a sudden rejected her so much, I see." Zhang Tong suddenly realized, and then began to reflect on himself.
"We found evidence that Chen Jinzhi colluded with Wu Zhidun, and originally wanted to set up a bureau to arrest him, but Lin Lubai gave him the news and let him escape. She said that she relented, after all, she had lived and died together, and she couldn't do it. Gu Li smiled bitterly, he blinked vigorously, tilted his head to the side, and then came back and continued: "How can we bear it? ”
Zhang Tong's strength around him was suddenly drained by someone, and he staggered back a few steps, and his back hit the window edge.
"People's hearts are made of flesh, won't we be in pain? But what can we do with those brothers who died because of this? Gu Li asked, I don't know who he was asking, asking the deceased Lin Lubai, or Chen Jinzhi, who had been killed?
No one spoke in the room, and the atmosphere was freezing at one point.
The stove was ringing softly, but it couldn't warm everyone's hearts, Yun Sheng only felt that his whole body was cold, and he couldn't even warm up his heart.
She grabbed Zhang Jiusheng's hand tightly, as if grasping a life-saving straw.
"That'...... Chen Jinzhi, did you kill it? Yun Sheng asked.
"It's not." Gu Li raised his head, threw the boots in his hand back to Yun Sheng, and said, "You found him one step ahead of me. In fact, I have been looking for him intermittently all these years, and I have to be worthy of those brothers who followed me from birth to death. But when I found out that he was dead, I found that I was still sad. ”
"That'...... Do you want to know who killed him? Yun Sheng lay down for so long, and suddenly his brain came alive and asked.
Gu Li glanced at her, squinted and didn't speak, suddenly chuckled lightly, and said, "Miss Eldest Sun is still quite smart, she still knows how to put a condom on me after being sick for so long?" ”
"Don't dare."
"I don't really want to know who killed him, for me, whether he dies or not, in my hands, it doesn't make much difference." Gu Li shrugged his shoulders, showing his indifference.
Yun Sheng hesitated and gently pinched Zhang Jiusheng's fingers.
Zhang Jiusheng immediately realized that they needed Gu Li's help.
"Brother Gu......"
"Okay." Without waiting for Zhang Jiusheng to speak, Gu Li seemed to guess what he was going to say, so he immediately responded, he stood up, kicked the chair under his buttocks away, and said, "I'm a person, I know how to repay my kindness, Imperial Doctor Zhang saved my life back then, and I will return it to Zhang Ershao today." ”
Zhang Tong finally recovered from the past events, and when he heard what consensus Gu Li had reached with Zhang Jiusheng out of tune, he couldn't help but be frightened, and walked over and kicked Gu Li's ass.
"Why did you kick me?" Gu Li held his ass and turned around and shouted angrily.
Zhang Tong opened his mouth, Zhang Jiusheng and Yunsheng were here, he didn't say anything, so as not to cause misunderstanding, and finally left angrily.
"What's wrong with him?" Yun Sheng couldn't turn a corner.
Gu Li smiled, he knew what Zhang Tong meant, since Chen Jinzhi's death had nothing to do with him, then he shouldn't get involved in it, after all, he didn't come to Fan County for a murder, there was a Li Hongzhi behind him.
"The child's temper can't be changed after so many years, I will go back and talk about him."
Zhang Jiusheng glanced at the direction Zhang Tong left and asked, "You used to be very good brothers?" ”
"It's not bad, it's just that he and I have different ambitions, he wants to be a famous coroner, I'm a martial artist, I only like to dance with knives and guns, and many times I can't talk to him about going together." Gu Li smiled, he was honest.
With Gu Li's help, the case was pushed forward very smoothly.
Chen Jinzhi used to be a person under Gu Li, that is, Li Hongzhi's person, but later defected and became Wu Zhidun's person. Since he can betray his life-saving benefactor, he can naturally betray the person who promises benefits.
Whether it is the discovery of conscience or the accumulation of yin virtue, Chen Jinzhi is dead in the end.
The day he died, it was the middle of the night, it was cold, and someone asked him out, this person was someone he knew, it could be Gu Li, or it could be Wu Zhidun's person.
Yunsheng always felt that it was too strange for Chen Jinzhi to go out in single clothes. Even if young people are hot, it shouldn't be that way, right?
"Have you forgotten? Chen Jinzhi has a cleanliness habit, his cleanliness habit is very serious, you have been to his home, you should know that he can't stand the slightest dust. Gu Li reminded: "I used to take him to see a doctor, but the doctor said that there was no cure. ”
"How serious is it?" Yun Sheng's eyes widened.
"If someone touches his things without washing his hands, he will go crazy and like a real madman, he will want to kill that person. So, I wouldn't be surprised if the murderer had done something to his clothes, and he would have taken them off in such cold weather. Gu Li pursed his lips: "He can do this." ”
