Chapter 47: Open Secrets
"Is this the reason why we don't investigate the case?"
Gao Zeng couldn't sit still anymore, so he got up and went back angrily, with anger on his face.
He grabbed the case in his hand and slapped it on Anhu's body, and shouted: "This person is a girl from the Kasai mercenary group, she has not done anything evil, she helps the poor and the poor on weekdays, and organizes to help farmers in the field; ”
As he spoke, he picked up another book and patted it on Ango's body.
"And this, there is a child at home who has not landed, and his wife washes her face with tears all day long!"
"And these! These! They all deserve to die, huh! ”
He kept grabbing the case on the table, and hit the file on Ango like crazy.
Gao Zeng's eyes were red, glaring at his former friend, and his ears were full of the sound of the case falling to the ground.
The two confronted each other in the hall, their eyes were fierce, and neither of them would back down.
But after a stalemate of about a dozen breaths, Gao Zeng walked out of the desk and bent down to pick up the case on the ground.
He let out a long breath, his voice a little softer: "I know I can't go back, but so what? We are bad people, we will investigate the case, arrest the murderer, even if he kills the most vicious, we still have to arrest him. I know in my heart that you hate me, and that it was my fault that I insisted on doing my own thing. You can pretend you didn't see anything, but they're innocent and I can't sit idly by. ”
The case in his hand was very heavy, and Gao Zeng knew in his heart that this was not only the weight of books and ink, but the weight of human life, and each book represented the death of a living life in the world.
With these written records, what was originally meaningless has its own value.
Ango wiped his mouth, his right hand grasping the hilt of the knife, his tongue against his teeth, and staring directly at Gao Zeng.
In the end, he shook his head, as if unloading a burden, sighed, and refused: "I can't continue to make mistakes with you, I can't go back to the capital now, I can't even see my father's face, I want to live well, and live until the day I can go back to my father's mother's death, but these people you are talking about, are they really clean?" ”
Gao Zeng's refusal to protect is not surprising
But his last sentence made Gao Zeng fall into deep doubt.
"Clean? Who is clean in this world? ”
Gao Zengmu sent the security guard into the end of the pitch-black corridor again, and finally disappeared completely.
He sat back again, but this time he lost the fighting spirit he had had at the beginning, clasped his hands around and was silent as he looked at the flickering candle flame.
After being silent for half an hour, Gao Zengcai picked up the woman's case record again and continued to look for clues.
This time he looked very slowly and carefully, and even the strokes were memorized by him.
Although he still wondered if he was doing the right thing, he didn't stop moving.
On the other side, Ango left the bad hall. However, he did not go back to the compound where he lived, but ran to the auction house.
Things have happened a little weirdly in the past few days, like a tornado, coming suddenly and leaving quickly.
But really tracing back to the source, in the end, it was when the recovery spirit liquid appeared, that is, that boy!
Standing at the door of the auction house, Anhu hesitated for a long time, and only after about a quarter of an hour did he cheer himself up and walk briskly on the steps.
When he arrived at the door, the subordinate who was about to close the door saw that he was a bad person, and he was inexplicably nervous, and said with a wry smile: "My lord, this place has been closed ......"
"Don't talk nonsense, bad people handle the case, and call Mrs. Ming out."
Anhu shouted angrily, causing the man's body to tremble, and the smile on his face froze in place.
Before anyone could report it, a crisp voice came from the auction hall, Mrs. Ming sorted out the black plush scarf in the crook of her arm, and greeted her with a smile: "My lord actually handled the case late at night, and he still came to my auction house?" Don't know what's going on? ”
An Hu got straight to the point: "A few days ago, there was a child in your family who was selling the recovery spirit liquid, do you know where he is?" ”
"Oh?" Mrs. Ming's eyes were suddenly firm, and her smile was a little stronger: "My lord wants to find him?" ”
"There's something I'd like to ask." Ango nodded.
"That's not a coincidence, the little boy is a wandering cultivator, and he left after doing business with me, how can he be nostalgic?" Mrs. Ming's slender jade hands crossed in front of her, her tone was pertinent, and her eyes were firm: "Can you still take a fancy to me, a half-old?" Can't live here? ”
An's eyes narrowed slightly, and his anger skyrocketed a little, and the atmosphere suddenly became uncomfortable.
"I heard that Elder Lei left?"
An Hu's words turned sharply, and he craned his neck to look around at the other elders who were following Lady Ming.
Elder Qiu's expression was a little uncertain, but fortunately he was not noticed, and the other elders looked at each other and remained silent.
There was no trace of Elder Lei and Ge Wanqing, and An Hu retracted his gaze a little unwillingly.
Mrs. Ming changed to clasp her hands, glanced at her eyebrows, and complained: "Elder Lei is an offering, he has been here for a long time over the years, and it is only a matter of time before he leaves, but he didn't leave half a sentence, I am still annoyed, there is one less worship, and I have no one to sit down." ”
Anhu's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled, "How did I hear that I was killed?" ”
"Elder Lei was killed?" Mrs. Ming's face was full of shock, and she wondered, "Can't you?" Where did you hear that? ”
The elders behind him also looked puzzled, and it seemed that they didn't know much about this matter.
An Hu looked around, smiled dumbly, and said, "I just heard that Mrs. Ming doesn't have to take it to heart." ”
Then he reminded: "The town has not been peaceful recently, can you not go out or not, it is really the demon king's trouble, and it will inevitably trouble you when the time comes." ”
Ango left, and he didn't get any useful clues.
However, anyone with a discerning eye could see the fake posture of Mrs. Ming and several elders.
He wondered why they didn't care about Elder Lei's death, or why they were protecting the child.
Under the shroud of bloody rain, Luoshan Town, which was still lively at this time in the past, became much more deserted.
Anhu walked alone on the street, thinking about the clues he knew, and looked up at this time, and then looked at the Demon Mountain Range behind him, as if he thought of something, and in the next second, he spread his steps and ran wildly towards the east.
Xu felt that the road was tortuous, so he simply turned over the wall and walked on the tile.
His speed was very fast, like a ghost, and he crossed hundreds of meters in one step, and rushed to the still lively land of smoke and willows in a few breaths.
This is the last place in Luoshan Town to close its doors.
Standing on the fence not far away, An Hu recalled the case he had just glimpsed, his eyes sharp.
"He's been to the land of smoke and willows, and he's stayed there for the night."
"yes, the lord said, it was really dangerous that night."
"Who knows exactly what's going on? Hehe, I probably don't want to say it, after all, it has little to do with our people. ”
“.......”
Every sentence on the case record churned in my head, and even the tone was unconsciously formed.
An Hu stared at the smoke willow attic in front of him, his tone was low, and he said jokingly: "As long as you find out what happened that night, won't the clues come." ”
