Chapter 5 Knife Sense

Night Terror stepped out of the carriage, opened the oil-paper umbrella, and looked up at the street.

The surrounding area of Zhuji Street is a residential area, where most of the middle-class people such as wealthy merchants and retired officials live, and the street is very neat, and the outline of the mansion with white walls and green tiles can be seen behind the street, as well as the willow laurel sticking out of the branches.

At this time, at the entrance of an alley on the side of the street, there were many people, some scholars and outsiders, holding umbrellas and talking to each other:

"Why did Old Zhao die?"

"I heard that he was killed, so let's rob the money."

"I have no children and no daughters, and I still suffer this kind of misfortune when I am old, it is really ...... Hey? What is this? ”

When the crowd heard the sound of the carriage, they looked back and looked shocked, and hurriedly retreated to the side of the street and bowed their heads.

Night Terror Hall held the umbrella on top of Dongfang Liren, who was dressed in a silver python robe, and raised his hand to signal.

“……”

Dongfang Liren didn't know why, when he saw the night terror hall, he recalled the 'new knowledge' he had just seen, and his heart was twisted, and he didn't squint and led people to the alley.

Night Terror Hall accompanied him, paying attention to the surrounding wind and grass, and after coming to the entrance of the alley, he could see that in front of a house in the depths of Bluestone Alley, there were four catchers.

The Yamen of the Three Law Divisions, commonly known as the 'Six Doors', is an official judicial body, and its clothes are exactly the same as those of the Black Ya, except that the official has the word 'arrest' embroidered on his chest, while the Black Ya Arrest is quickly counted as a 'vigilante', and there is no decoration on the clothes.

The official standing outside the mansion found King Jing coming, one person went in to report, and the rest walked over quickly and bowed:

"Meet Your Highness."

"No courtesy. This king passed through this place, and heard about the murder, and came to take a look. What's going on? ”

"Zhao De, a small official of the Ministry of Industry who lives here, was killed by gangsters the day before yesterday, and his body was not found until this morning......

As he spoke, Night Terror came to the door of the mansion.

The house is a two-entry courtyard, one into the courtyard is planted with flowers and plants, but at this time most of it is damaged, and there are also wounds on the courtyard wall pillars.

Five officials, holding an umbrella in the courtyard to check, there was a corpse covered with a white cloth lying in the lobby, several people walked out quickly, led by a middle-aged man wearing a gauze hat, wearing a red official robe and hanging an official sword, sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, looking quite majestic, when he saw King Jing, he stopped and bowed:

"Humble Yuwen Chengde, meet King Jing."

Dongfang walked into the scene of the crime, frowned and looked around:

"Wait until you get to business. The old official in the court, who was killed at the feet of the Son of Heaven, is not a trivial matter, and the case must be solved as soon as possible and an explanation must be given to the court. ”

Yuwen Chengde knew that King Jing was going to intervene in the case, but he didn't dare to say anything, and nodded respectfully:

"A humble position will certainly live up to His Highness's high expectations."

After the words fell, he returned to the house and continued to examine the body with him.

Dongfang Liren kept a thoughtful look, put his hands behind his back, and stopped under the courtyard wall, looking like he understood everything, but he didn't speak for a long time.

Night Terror stood next to him with an umbrella, waited for a long time and saw that Dongfang was leaving no reaction, and whispered:

"Isn't Your Highness here to investigate the case?"

Dongfang stood away from the person and replied in a low voice:

"How can the superior bow down to everything? The autopsy and pursuit of the culprit have their own pretense to catch the head to do, and this king is the responsibility of supervision. ”

"Oversight...... So what do I study? ”

"You will only fight and kill, and in the future, when you encounter this situation, like She Long, pretend to know very well, say something about the gourd casually, and ask and discuss it in private, so as not to be looked down upon by your subordinates, or blindly commanded, so that the people below are in a dilemma and mess things up."

The last time Night Terror Hall was tested by the iron-armed Impermanence She Long, he saw that She Long was a brother who knew how to do it, and his face was full of serious nonsense.

At this time, he also understood the meaning - he came over stupidly to teach him how to be a leader who 'carried his hands behind his back and inspected with a big belly'.

Night Terror glanced at the queen's waist - the jade belt around his waist was hugged in size, and he couldn't see his small belly, but his thinking posture with his hands behind his back was quite a bit of Di Renjie's taste.

The night terror hall is a little funny, but at the scene of the crime, the deceased is not far away, and the expression is still very deep and serious.

The five officials carefully looked at the traces in the courtyard.

Yuwen Chengde conducted an autopsy in the hall, probably thinking that King Jing was present, and it was not right to take care of it or not, so he came to him again and looked at the traces on the wall:

"After a lowly investigation, the murderer used a sword, but I don't dare to confirm what kind of moves left the traces, I don't know if His Highness has any opinions?"

The traces on the wall are left by the sword move 'White Crane Sweeping the Tail', the sword moves on the rotten streets on the rivers and lakes, as long as you have a little kung fu foundation, you can see it, Yuwen Chengde said this, obviously to make King Jing have a sense of participation.

Dongfang Liren saw Yuwen Chengde's long eyes, and he was quite appreciative in his heart, and explained seriously:

"The traces are caused by the sword move 'White Crane Sweeping the Tail', and from the point of view of strength, the martial arts are not low......"

Originally, having said that, King Jing had his participation, and he could go home.

Yuwen Chengde was 'dialed' by King Jing, and when the case was closed, King Jing's name was written in the first place, and the book praised 'King Jing's eyes are like torches and discerning', and he will inevitably be taken care of by King Jing in the future.

But before Yuwen Chengde could say, "I see, Your Highness is high", he found the black-clothed guard standing behind King Jing, shook his head and said:

"Don't talk nonsense, it's a knife cut."

?!

As soon as these words came out, the officials in the courtyard, the servants and even the black officials quickly fell silent.

Dongfang Liren's words came to an abrupt end, his back hand tightened, and he glanced at the Night Terror.

(→_→)!

The corners of Yuwen Chengde's eyes twitched, and he said secretly: Where did this madman come from, dare to demolish King Jing's platform in person......

But looking back at the appearance of the night terror, Yuwen Chengde knew in his heart again - he looked so handsome, but he didn't dress like the son of a prince, and it was most likely a male pet brought out by King Jing to walk the street, no wonder he was open-mouthed......

Yuwen Chengde's face became serious, and he gestured to the marks on the wall:

"I think Your Highness is right. The sword marks are very different, and the servants present all think that they are sword marks. This son said that it was a knife mark, but he had other opinions? ”

Night Terror Hall opened his mouth, because he was afraid of stupid nonsense, and the professionals present found that the atmosphere was wrong, and they were shocked to realize that the courtyard was full of little fools.

Seeing everyone looking over, the Night Terror Hall couldn't refer to the deer as a horse and follow the crowd, and insisted that he was wrong, and the people really explained to everyone at the moment:

"The traces are indeed left by the 'White Snake Sweeping the Tail', but it looks very awkward, saying that the sword is too heavy, saying that the knife is too light, it seems that he is a master of using a knife all year round, using a knife similar to a sword, using sword moves against the enemy......"

??

The officials in the hospital were slowly at a loss.

Yuwen Chengde frowned and savored it, feeling that these words were even more awkward, and asked:

"Where did Childe see this?"

The judgment made by Night Terror Hall based on the feeling of using a knife all year round can't be explained in detail, and after thinking about it:

"When you hold the knife for a long time, you can feel it, huh...... Knife sense! ”

“……”

Yuwen Cheng has touched the official knife for more than 20 years, he is older than Night Terror, hearing this, his eyes are complicated, if it weren't for the presence of King Jing, I'm afraid he would have to compare with this nonsense kid.

Dongfang Liren knew how powerful the night terror hall was, and when he saw him say it so seriously, his eyes softened, and he said seriously:

"Handling cases is based on real evidence, just based on feelings, as long as there is a mistake, it is an unjust, false and wrongful case. You say with a knife, maybe give an exact explanation? ”

Night Terror thought for a moment, handed the umbrella to Dongfang Liren, and inspected the traces on the walls of flowers and trees in the courtyard......
