In the middle of the night, Han Daring noticed a figure in the alley and walked out of the vicinity of the dry well courtyard. In order to avoid startling the snake, he secretly followed the man, and saw that the man was a little hunched over, thin, but his steps were very fast.

There are a lot of people living in the alley over there, and there are quite a few people with similar figures, but that person walked out from the direction of the dry well courtyard, and it is very likely that he is one of the suspects around. Han Daring remembered that when he visited in the afternoon, there were three suspects who were similar to the figures in front of him.

One is a gambler nicknamed the chicken, one is the gardener Lao Tian, and the other is the pimple five.

The chicken is full of messy hair and a cockscomb, which can be recognized at a glance, but the person in front of him is a flat head, and the chicken is not only not tall, but also very thin, or a shaved shoulders and long neck, so it must not be a chicken.

Although he was thin and somewhat hunched, he was slightly taller and had thin limbs.

The man in front of him was thin and strong, with thick hands and feet, and must have been working for a long time. Bending over and hunchbacking is caused by leaning over to plant flowers and plants for a long time and building branches and leaves, so the person in front of him should be an old field planting flowers.

Han Daring didn't know what Lao Tian wanted to go out quietly in the middle of the night. He began his light body and fell into Lao Tian from a distance, and saw him all the way through the four cross-shaped inner streets in the old city, and came to the mouth of an alley near the bird market after Hou's house.

The entrance of the alley is pitch black, there is a little firelight, hidden in the dark, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, when you get closer, you can see that the fire is bright and slightly bright, and then a wisp of green smoke rises, the firelight turns dim again, and the figure is hidden in the darkness. Han Daring could see that there was a person standing at the mouth of the alley smoking a cigarette.

The smoker saw Lao Tian coming from afar, so he beckoned to Lao Tian, Lao Tian also saw the cigarette butt fire, and the burden in his hand was tightened, he couldn't stop looking around, and saw that there was no one around, so he walked quickly towards the man. The two had apparently made an appointment a long time ago to meet here and now.

Han Daring was afraid that the smoker would find him, so he hurriedly dodged and hid at the intersection of a tavern not far away. In the moonlight, I saw the smoker and handed a small cloth bag to Lao Tian. Lao Tian took the cloth bag, weighed the weight, and mysteriously handed the burden in his hand to the smoker. The smoker opened his baggage and glanced at it, nodded at Lao Tian, and turned around to leave.

Han Daring saw that the opportunity could not be missed, and immediately flew out. He was not far from the two of them, and with a vertical leap, he was already close to the two of them, and stretched out his hand to grab them down.

Lao Tian and the smoker were taken aback when they saw someone suddenly rushing to their side, and hurriedly turned around and wanted to escape. Han Daring's technique was clean and neat, but at this time, he had firmly grabbed the collar of the two.

Lao Tian sat down on the ground unsteadily, but the smoker was very treacherous, just when Han Daring grabbed this person, he immediately went to the cigarette butt in his hand, and the back of Han Daring's hand was burned.

The back of Han Da'er's hand hurt, and as soon as he let go of his hand, the smoker was already holding his burden and running away. Han Daring was about to chase after him again, but the smoker raised the cigarette butt and pointed it towards Han Daring, blowing the ash into Han Daring's eyes in one breath.

Han Daring didn't expect the other party to be so scheming, and he actually made such a strange move, and was trying to dodge the soot, but by coincidence, at this time, a gust of north wind blew, and the soot blew into his eyes along the wind. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, and the smoker had already carried his burden, turned into the alley, and ran away.

Han Daring's eyes were a little clearer, and then he saw that the smoker had long disappeared, but fortunately, he had been holding Lao Tian with his right hand and didn't let go, so he shouted:

"Sneaking around in the middle of the night, what are you doing after running to the Hou family? Who was you talking to just now? ”

Lao Tian didn't answer, but he couldn't stop sighing, but he said:

"Oops! But it broke my old waist! ”

Seeing him pretending to be stupid, Han Daring shouted:

"Don't talk nonsense! Can't die! Hurry up and explain, don't bother me! ”

Lao Tian pretended to be stupid and said:

"Confess! I can't sleep in the middle of the night and come out for a walk, how can I have anyone else! ”

Seeing that Lao Tian didn't admit it, Han Da'er lifted him up and said:

"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, anyway, the dry bone case is still a top tank!"

Although the dry bones case has not yet been filed, and it has not been announced to the public, yesterday Han Dadaer took people to pick up the bones, and in the afternoon, he visited everywhere, and all the surrounding families also knew a rough idea. There are some superstitious neighbors, this one says that evil ghosts harm people, and the other says that monsters eat people, but many people know that at this time, in addition to serial murders, the police are looking for clues and arresting the murderers.

As soon as Lao Tian heard Han Daring say that he was going to take him to the top cylinder, he hurriedly said:

"You're young, you can't be a fool with red mouth and white teeth! I'm a little old man, who can I kill? You're a detective from Jinmen, you can't rely on ......"

Suddenly, a scream interrupted Lao Tian's words, and with a "bang", a figure fell to the ground, but it was a middle-aged man. The man seemed to be frightened, fell to the ground, crawled backwards, his eyes fixed on the darkness of the alley, and he cried out:

"Youkai! Monster! Coquette! Stay back! Don't come here......"

Han Daring looked at the person's appearance and appearance, it was actually the smoker just now!

At this time, Lao Tian was also quite surprised to see the smoker coming back and forth, his eyes wandered, and he was covered in cold sweat.

Han Daring looked towards the alley where the smoker was looking, and saw two faint blue fires lit up, and a small red and fluffy figure came from a distance, smelling a faint smell of fox in his nose, he immediately held his breath temporarily, stretched out his hand in front of his face, and the palm wind was everywhere, instantly dissipating the smell.

He shouted into the darkness:

"Ye Ling! Don't pretend to be a ghost! Come out! ”

Suddenly, the green shadow flickered, and a graceful girl jumped off the roof, it was the little fox fairy Ye Ling. The turquoise eyes and furry eyes in the alley in the distance were the little fox she had domesticated.

Han Da'er said with a cold face:

"Why are you here? What are you stealing in the middle of the night?! ”

Ye Ling was originally smiling, but when he heard him say this, he pursed his lips and said:

"Who stole something! I'm here to help you! If it weren't for me, you would have been able to catch this guy! ”

As he spoke, he threw over a burden, but it was the same burden that Lao Tian gave to the smoker.

Han Daring opened the bag and saw that there were clumps of black and swarthy things inside, all wrapped in oiled paper, soft like ointment, and when he got closer, it was a little sour, but it turned out to be smoke! Tobacco soil is great smoke, that is, opium paste.

It turned out that Lao Tian went out in the middle of the night in secret, but he was connecting with people and shooting this batch of big cigarettes. Lao Tian saw that Han Dada'er had obtained a big cigarette ointment, and he was immediately depressed and embarrassed.

At the beginning of its establishment, the Nanjing government legislated against narcotics, and issued a decree long ago to strictly prohibit the sale of opium. Although opium trafficking is still carried out in various places, there are also many private tobacco houses on the streets. In the current social environment, the anti-drug order is nothing more than a dead letter.

If there is power, spend some money to dredge and dredge, not only will the opium traffickers be fine, but even the goods can be recovered. But if there is no power and no background, then the opium will be confiscated directly, and the party will be in charge for a year and a half, and the amount of money will be released in the end, which is not a capital crime at that time.

Han Daring held Lao Tian and the smoker, and Ye Ling held the little fox and followed behind. The smoker was delirious, muttering to himself, and kept talking about the goblin, and was picked up by Han Da'er and walked back. When he arrived at the alley in Nanshi, Han Dada'er called Fan Tong who was napping in the small hotel by the way.

Fan Tong saw Han Daring's side, with this beautiful little girl, her eyes were not enough, Ye Ling's smile was as bright as a peach and plum, Fan Tong saw that his bones were crispy, and his legs were as if they were not his own, and he walked fluttering.

Several people came to Lao Tian's house together. Han Daring saw that the yard of Lao Tian's house was not big, there was a narrow brick road in the middle of the yard, and there was land on both sides, and there should be a lot of flowers of various colors planted when the weather was warm. There were some long and short wooden planks piled up along the wall, and Lao Tian said that these planks were used to repair the house and build a rain building by the way.

Han Daring carefully questioned Lao Tian in the courtyard, but Lao Tian flickered, saying for a while that he didn't know what was in the baggage, and then saying that the burden was picked up. He never dared to torture to extract confessions, but Fan Tong couldn't suppress the fire when he saw the coward. Coupled with Ye Ling, a beautiful little girl, beside him, Fan Tong deliberately showed himself, went up left and right and opened the bow to give Lao Tian twenty big mouths first, and beat Lao Tian to bleed from his mouth, and learned to cry sheep.

Don't look at Lao Tian being beaten in the mouth, but the dead duck has a hard mouth, and he can't be killed. Fan Tong saw that Lao Tian was dead, so he turned his gaze to the smoker, at this time Ye Ling solved the hypnotic soul technique, and the smoker gradually sobered up. As soon as he understood what was going on, he saw two people in official clothes standing in front of him, and Lao Tian was standing on the side, covering his high swollen cheeks with his hands.

Smokers also mingle on the street all year round, and they understand what is going on when they get there. Fan Tongyi's face was bad, he rolled up his arms and sleeves, grabbed the collar of the smoker's neck, and slapped his arm. The smoker didn't suffer the immediate loss, and hurriedly waved his hand again and again:

"Vice-master! Slow your hands! You can ask casually, I know everything! ”

Smokers know that although the crime of opium trafficking is not small from the official face, it is actually not a big deal, and he will be fined for two days at most, not to mention that his backstage tobacco shop is the property of the second master of the drunken King Kong, and this little cigarette paste is not a problem at all.

The smoker explained honestly on the side, and Han Daring saw Lao Tian standing in the courtyard, but he always blocked the door of the West House. The Westinghouse house is not big, it looks very dilapidated, and there are a lot of sundries piled up in front of the door, and Lao Tian seems to have deliberately covered the pile of sundries with his body. He hurriedly stepped forward to pull Lao Tian open and pulled the debris in front of the door.

Pushing the door in, I saw the moonlight shining on the ground, but the roof of this house broke a hole in the boss. When the moonlight fell, there were no bricks on the floor of the house, and it was all the same land as in the courtyard, but the land was black and sour. There was a stove in the corner, and on top of it sat a large cauldron, and there were a lot of grease residues in the pot that looked like pitch black. There are some dried petals on the ground, colorful and bright, but they are dried poppy flowers!

Although the poppy flowers are beautiful, they are the raw materials for making opium, and the flowers are as showy as they are harmful to others. Poppies are very easy to grow, and the black soil in the house is acidic, which is exactly what is needed to grow poppies, poppies like sunlight, and this large hole in the roof is specially used for poppies to shine in the sun. The stove and pot were used to boil opium.

Looking at the area in the house, there are not many opium poppies planted in the old field, and I don't know how long it took to save so much opium paste in the baggage, it is estimated that it will take several years of hard work, but that burden of opium is really worth a lot of money, and it is enough to live in the old field for several years.

Seeing this, Lao Tian no longer concealed it, so he had to tell the truth.

Although Lao Tian has a little savings, he has no children and no daughters, and just relying on this kind of flowers to grow grass can exchange two dollars in spring and summer. In addition, he also focused on radish and cabbage in the courtyard, but in the long run, life was also difficult. He originally worked as a gardener in the palace of Beijing, and at that time a pot of opium poppies was planted in the backyard of the palace.

He didn't grow much, and he boiled tobacco paste by himself for a few years, and he also accumulated a lot, and some time ago he found a middleman and contacted a buyer, wanting to sell this batch of tobacco paste in exchange for pension money.

The smoker's name is Wu Liu, he is a guy in a tobacco shop behind the Hou family, they have long agreed to settle it tonight, but there has just been a dry bone case in the alley, Lao Tian is afraid of attracting people's attention, and he will talk about it later, but the sake is red, and the wealth is touching, and in the end he still mustered up the courage to go to Hou's house to hand over the cigarette paste, but was directly caught by Han Da'er!

Han Daring saw that Wu Liu's explanation was honest, and he looked at Lao Tian and the lonely old man, which was really pitiful, so he said:

"Hey! The old man also wants to earn some pension money alone, which is quite pitiful! ”

When Lao Tian heard this, he seemed to be relieved, and was about to beg Han Dada'er, but who knew that he said to Fan Tong:

"Fan Tong! Now that they've all confessed, don't hit them! Tie it up with a rope and send it back to the hall tomorrow morning, and lock it up for a few days! ”

Han Daring's words were gentle, but his words were hard, and he put Lao Tian's little hope of survival, and he gave him back a nest, and Lao Tian was angry and wanted to scold his mother! Since Han Dada'er said this, Fan Tong was not polite, and found two ropes to tie the two of them to compete with a zongzi.

Ye Ling looked at Han Daring and said:

"Big brother! Didn't you just say that this old man is very pitiful, so pitiful, why do you still arrest him! ”

Han Da'er said coldly:

"What's wrong with the pitiful, won't you be arrested if you are pitiful?"

Ye Ling grinned and said:

"Big brother, did you let me go last time because you liked me?"

Han Daring shouted:

"You are such a big girl, why do you have no skin and no face! You've reminded me, and you should really go in and reflect on it......"

Saying that, he stretched out his wrist towards Ye Ling and grabbed it, Ye Ling's body was very fast, he smiled and dodged away, and suddenly jumped out of the window on the second floor, and the little fox also followed, jumping out of the window and escaping. Fan Tong was dumbfounded, he didn't know that the beautiful little girl in front of him had such a great ability, so he hurriedly ran to the window and looked out, but Ye Ling had already run away at this time, where could he find it.

Early the next morning, Fan Tong escorted Lao Tian and Wu Liu, and took a burden to the headquarters of the Opium Society.

Not long after, You Fei, Zhang Biao and others also arrived. Han Daring took a few people to start investigating one by one, he had just come to the door of Widow Yao, and was about to knock on the door, when someone in the distance stopped him. Han Daring looked back, but it turned out to be Mei's ability. He's coming this way with two policemen.

Han Da'er hurriedly walked over and asked:

"Mei Tou'er! The matter of filing the case, has it been approved above? ”

Mei was full of energy, her waist was straight, and she didn't answer Han Daring's question, but instead loudly beckoned You Fei, Zhang Biao and others, and then said loudly:

"Dry bones! Shangfeng has approved the opening of the case for investigation......"

He glanced at Han Da'er, and then continued:

"Now I am solely responsible for the case, and everyone is under my command!"

Mei was able to command the individual, continued to investigate the house, and took two policemen with him to shoot the door of the butcher Zhou Bo, but Han Daring was left aside.

He thought to himself, Mei's ability has been abnormal recently, maybe he is afraid that I will always solve the case and make meritorious contributions and steal the limelight from him, but when investigating this kind of thing, Mei's ability is simply a bottle of dissatisfaction, half a bottle, and finally I have to rely on myself to find out the case.

Han Daring didn't want to fight for merit, anyway, the more people who helped investigate the case, the better, and found out the facts of the case by himself, the big deal was all on Mei's ability, and he would get it if he didn't compete with him.

He was about to step forward to help visit, but Mei turned around and said coldly to Han Da'er:

"There's something else for you to do in a moment! You don't have to worry about this! ”

Han Daring listened to it, and was stunned!
