The men of Kiyoshoji rode all the way out of the city and came to San'in County as fast as they could.

"Huh-" Everyone reined in the Yamen of Shanyin.

The county guard and the local Li County magistrate waited for everyone to arrive in front of the yamen.

"Zheng Kun, the county guard of Shanyin County, has seen all the adults, and the lower officials have prepared thin wine, and they are invited to the banquet."

"Chenli County Commander Sui ......"

Everyone dismounted and went straight to Youyamen, Jiang Xie glanced at Zheng Taishou and the county order of Li County, and said coldly: "Since there is wine and food, then we will talk about the case while eating, and strive to solve the case as soon as possible." ”

Zheng Taishou and Sui County Ling looked at each other, and talked about the murder at the dinner table, which was too tasteful.

Seeing that the Qingzheng Division and everyone went straight to the case, the song and dance they had prepared were not arranged, but only a reception banquet was arranged in the Taishou Mansion.

At the banquet, Jiang Xie and Zuo Yanqing sat on the upper seat, Zheng Taishou behaved flatteringly, but he didn't expect that the officials of Qingzheng Division would be so young.

Jiang Xie drank a glass of wine, put the wine glass on the table, and looked at him impatiently with cold eyes: "Don't talk useless, get down to business."

The others also put down the dishes and chopsticks, and their eyes fell on Zheng Taishou and Sui County Ling.

Zheng Taishou's face was embarrassed, and he didn't seem to want to talk about it at the dinner table, but because of the majesty of Shangguan, he tugged on the sleeve of the Sui County Order: "You say, you say, what happened in your county, you know the specifics, hurry up." ”

Sui County Ling got up timidly, and then whispered: "On the twenty-fourth of last month, a giant python with a blind right eye was found in our Li County, and the python attacked and injured the people, and then we began to appear a large number of corpses, everyone said that the python had become a sperm and was harmed by people, so it would come to our county to retaliate, and now it makes people panic, for fear that they will be eaten by the python when they go out." ”

"We can't tell whether we were murdered to death or bitten to death by a python, so we reported to Dali Temple, but we didn't expect to alarm Qingzheng Division, and we blamed the incompetence of the lower officials."

Zuo Yanqing added: "I specifically asked about the physical characteristics of the python, and this should be the same as the one that Lord Jiang and Lord Huo encountered on the transfer officer's boat. ”

"When I fell into the water, the python did dive into the sea, presumably swimming to the shore to attack the people of Li County downstream." Huo Yijun recalled.

Jiang Xie leaned back, his fingers tapping on the table, and fell into thought.

Soon after, he asked, "Where are the corpses now?" ”

Zheng Taishou replied: "It's all in the morgue of the county government in Li County, and the lower officials have seen it, and many of the corpses are packed back separately with sacks, and I don't know how many people there are, it's really bad." ”

Jiang Xie asked again: "Since some people see that it is the python that does evil, what makes adults suspect that it may not be the python that did it, and that there is a human possibility?" ”

"Ginger-sama......"

Zheng Junshou replied closely: "My lord, I do doubt the possibility of being artificial, so I will play, after all, it is a parent official, every decision cannot be hasty, I hope it is done by the python, but if it is artificial, then wouldn't it be free?" ”

"The lower official is not mediocre, if the python wants to retaliate and eat people directly, why should he bite one piece at a time, this is very abnormal, so even if there is a trace of suspicion, it must be reported, even if it is found out in the end It is indeed an accident, it is nothing more than being reprimanded, and it is a big deal to be dismissed."

Huo Yijun raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't realize that this Zheng Taishou was still very clear when he was critical.

"Well done."

Jiang Xie praised lightly, and his attitude was not as blunt as before, and he became softer.

"Everyone has finished eating, Xiang Xiu and Ji Ji and Sui County Ling will get up early tomorrow to go to several crime scenes to collect evidence, take a look at the surrounding environment, don't = let go of any clues."

"Yes." Xiang Xiu and Zhong Ji responded.

Jiang Xie looked at Huo Yijun again: "Lord Huo and I will go to the autopsy tonight to find out how many people were killed." ”

Huo Yijun: "Okay. ”

After the meal, Jiang Xie led people to find an inn to stay in, but soon, Huo Yijun pointed to the largest one in the distance: "Go there." ”

Zuo Yanqing touched his pocket, a little embarrassed: "I thought I would live in Taishou Mansion on this trip, but who knew that Zheng Taishou was so picky, we had to find a place by ourselves, and we didn't bring much money to ......"

"We're here to solve the case, not for pleasure, just to live." Jiang Xie also did not agree to go.

Several people followed Jiang Xie away, and Huo Yijun stood in place and shouted to them: "No money, that's the Huo family's restaurant, my fifth uncle's property." ”

"Who is your fifth uncle?" Xiang Xiu turned around curiously and leaned over to ask, he really wanted to go.

Huo Yijun introduced: "It is my cousin Huo Yihuan's father and my uncle's son, Huo Yingyu, who was arrested in the Qingzheng Division in the Tianlan case. ”

Xiang Xiu proposed: "Since it is my own family, the young lord, or we will go to live in a big restaurant, anyway, we don't need money, and we can eat delicious food." Zuo Yanqing's eyes were firm: "Since you don't want money, you can go." ”

Jiang Xie was helpless, the minority obeyed the majority, so he had to follow Huo Yijun to the restaurant to move in.

However, as soon as they entered the restaurant, the sound of quarrels inside attracted them.

"You give my son back!! Give my son back! ”
