Above the county office, Wang Meng was the first to jump out and said in a deep voice, "My lord, this matter is not appropriate, although the maid belongs to the Zhou family, it does not mean that the person is in the Zhou family, the Zhou family is a famous family in Sanyang County, and if there is no conclusive evidence, the Zhou family will definitely be extremely dissatisfied." ”

"That's right, Lord County Shou, maybe this maid was sent away by the Zhou family a long time ago, and she is no longer from the Zhou family, Qi Zhutou's move is obviously aimed at the Zhou family, in case it is known, the reputation of the Zhou family will probably plummet, inappropriate, inappropriate......"

"The family must not be humiliated, please make a clear judgment!"

“……”

At this time, there were nine blue-clothed heads, and there were five who spoke out for the Zhou family.

As for the Zhou family's Zhou Yunhu head catcher, it was difficult to speak at this time, and his eyes looked at Qi Zixiao coldly.

At the forefront, there were three purple-clothed catchers, Wu Donghe was expressionless, standing there like a stake, not saying anything, Lin Fan also closed his eyes, looking like he was out of the way.

Xu Qingfeng also had a calm face and did not become a bird.

The county guard looked at this scene, his face remained unchanged, and he looked at Qi Zixiao, "Qi Catcher, what do you say?" I think they have a point. ”

"The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, not to mention a Zhou family, this is a matter of human life, and his subordinates just went to the Zhou family to investigate, not against any Zhou family."

Qi Zixiao spoke calmly.

"As for the reputation of the Zhou family, as long as the case is investigated clearly and the maid is given justice, the reputation of the Zhou family will naturally not be affected, unless this maid was killed by the Zhou family themselves."

As he spoke, he looked at the other head hunters, and his tone gradually became cold, "Do you want to shield the murderer if you are so obstructive!" ”

When everyone heard this, they were all furious, "Presumptuous, Qi Zixiao, you are a fool!" ”

"You dare to slander me, who do you think you are!"

"My lord is in charge of us, and we have absolutely no intention of half-subordination!"

Seeing the noise in the hall, the county guard coughed lightly, and when everyone was silent, he slowly spoke, "Well, what Qi Zhutou said is reasonable, this is a matter of human life, and no family has any privileges, well, this official ordered that Qi Zixiao investigate the death of the Zhou family's maid, and no family or individual can obstruct it, if it is violated, it will be against the imperial court!" ”

Hearing this, all the head catchers were condensed in their hearts, this is simply equivalent to Shang Fang's sword, with the whole order, the Zhou family did not dare to stop it, otherwise, a hat against the court would be buttoned down, who would dare to bear it!

When Qi Zixiao heard this, he nodded with a serious face, "Thank you, my lord!" ”

After the matter was over, a group of people dispersed, Qi Zixiao got the handwritten letter of the county guard, and then led people to Zhou's house.

At this time, the Zhou family had already learned the news from Zhou Yunhu.

In a courtyard, Zhou Yuan looked at several of his followers with a gloomy face, and they all looked at Zhou Yuan with a look of fear.

"I let you stay in the Zhou family, not to let you do evil!"

Zhou Yuan's tone was low, "A little maid just played, but you dared to kill people, just kill them, and threw the body on Changlin Street for me, you want my Zhou family to be unlucky!" ”

"Zhou Shao's life, we don't want to kill her, it's really that the brothers drank too much, and that maid is a strong ......"

A man hurriedly explained.

"Smack"

Zhou Yuan slapped out, and the other party's face instantly swollen, but he didn't dare to hide at all.

"You still have the face to say, now that bastard Qi Zixiao has come to investigate our Zhou family with a warrant from the county guard, do you know what it means, ah!"

Zhou Yuan's face was hideous, "Now the major families don't want to cause trouble, it's better for you to directly lead this evil god to my family." ”

"Zhou Shao, we are thinking that this guy is so arrogant, give him a lesson, there is a corpse in his territory, he will definitely not be able to get out of the relationship......"

Another dogleg said.

"Smack"

Another slap fell, Zhou Yuan withdrew his palm, his eyes were cold, "You guys are really a group of smart people, I don't know if Qi Zixiao can get out of the relationship, but I know that our Zhou family can't get out of the relationship!" ”

A crowd of people were shivering, kneeling there begging for mercy.

Looking at these people, the anger in Zhou Yuan's heart burned slowly, but he also knew that even if he beat them to death, it was useless, everything had already happened.

It was just a little maid who died, and he couldn't have killed his own team because of this.

It's just that thinking of Qi Zixiao coming to their Zhou family to investigate, he has a headache.

It wasn't a good deal, and he didn't even know how to deal with it.

Is it difficult to hand over his followers, then their Zhou family will not only be embarrassed, but it is estimated that no one will be willing to follow him in the future.

This is something he can't tolerate, so he's going to keep people.

"You guys, get out of the city, get out of the city, don't come back in the near future!"

Zhou Yuan said with a gloomy face.

With the ability of the blue coat to catch heads, it is not too easy to find out the murderer, and this is not a strange case.

Hearing this, a group of followers hurriedly nodded, they knew that Zhou Yuan had forgiven them.

Next, they didn't waste time and hurriedly left Zhou's house.

Not long after they left, Qi Zixiao came to Zhou's house, the doorman at the door of Zhou's house stopped them and didn't let them in, Qi Zixiao took out the county guard warrant, so he was able to enter Zhou's house.

Zhou Yuan personally came to greet him, looking at Qi Zixiao indifferently, "Qi Zhutou is here, and the Zhou family is really full of brilliance." ”

Qi Zixiao's face was calm, "Master Zhou, you should know what I'm here to do, you don't have to talk nonsense, hand over the murderer, and I'll go back to hand it over." ”

"Qi Zhutou, are you saying that my Zhou family is harboring the murderer, my Zhou family is a century-old family, and others are not allowed to slander like this!"

Zhou Yuan's face turned cold and he spoke.

"Do you know better than me that people belong to your Zhou family, do you say that you don't know anything about it!"

Qi Zixiao sneered.

"I heard that you have recently brought a lot of followers into the Zhou family, and now what about them?"

I have to say that the Zhou family covers a large area, and after walking a long way, he didn't come to the lobby of the Zhou family.

Zhou Yuan's eyes froze, "They are my subordinates, I have something for them to do, and I have left the Zhou family a long time ago." ”

"Yes, I didn't expect that Master Zhou's ability to make up nonsense is not ordinarily strong."

Qi Zixiao smiled faintly, "I just heard the people below say that they seem to have just left your Zhou family, you say, can I arrest them if I send someone to intercept them now?" ”

Zhou Yuan's face changed, his steps paused, and his eyes looked at Qi Zixiao coldly, "Qi catches the head, leave a line in work, and we will meet in the future!" ”

"I want to too, but it's your Zhou family who won't give me face first!"

Qi Zixiao took a step forward and spoke in a deep voice.

"But don't worry, I won't touch them yet."

The corners of his mouth curled, "I heard that two of your men died, and now that they have all left the Zhou family, I am curious that how many of them can come back alive." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan's face changed again, "You ......"

Qi Zixiao waved his hand, "This time, I am ordered to investigate, the process that should be taken still has to be followed, come on, hand over all the people, and the head of this catcher will ask one by one......"

At this time, Tianyu Music Fang, Luo Niangzi's eyes subconsciously looked out of the city, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously set off a trace of arc.

Inside the night watchman, Zhong Xuan sat in the pavilion drinking tea, and Zhao Lan appeared at some point and sat opposite.

"This matter should be a ghost asking for his life."

Zhao Lan spoke slowly.

"Hey, but I don't think so."

Zhong Xuan shook his head and put the teacup down, his eyes deep.

"What do you mean?"

Zhao Lan looked at Zhong Xuan, her eyes flashed.

"I think there's something behind the ghost."

Zhong Xuan said slowly.

"Then I'll look into it again."

Zhao Lan opened her mouth and said.

"No, this matter hasn't made a big deal yet, and the dead people are all the dogs of the Zhou family, so we don't need to be in such a hurry to help the Zhou family."

Zhong Xuan smiled and spoke.

"Now Zixiao and several families are in a stalemate, let's go to help the Zhou family deal with the case, isn't this a stab for him."

Zhao Lan suddenly laughed, "Yes, then wait, see that the Zhou family is unlucky." ”

"Now Zixiao is the head catcher of the county government, this matter will fall on his head sooner or later, this should be his first battle as a night watchman, we can rest assured to see his performance."

Zhong Xuan said.

Zhao Lan nodded, looking into the distance.

……

Qi Zixiao didn't stay long in the Zhou family, and after a round of inquiries, everyone shook their heads and said they didn't know.

This did not exceed his expectations, how could the people of the Zhou family tell themselves the truth.

On the way back, Zhou Cheng looked at Qi Zixiao with some incomprehension, "Head, we broke into Zhou's house with great fanfare, and came back like this without anything, how should we continue to investigate this case?" ”

Hearing this, the corners of Qi Zixiao's mouth lifted an arc, "The murderer has already run away, what do you check." ”

"Ahh

Zhou Cheng opened his mouth wide.

"But how far can they run, hopefully they will have their lives to run back!"

Qi Zixiao chuckled.

In a remote manor outside the city, a group of Zhou Yuan's followers came here to live, this is the property of the Zhou family, the construction is very good, the area is also large, usually nothing to do, Zhou Yuan will also come to this manor to live for two days.

The manor is also cleaned regularly.

Each of the group chose a room to live in.

Night falls, autumn breezes.

The fallen leaves were blown up by the wind, and faintly, with a sound like weeping.

In one room, a man named Zhou Long was sleeping soundly, when he suddenly felt some itching in his neck, as if something was swimming.

He unconsciously flicked his hand, vaguely feeling like a strand of hair, and he became even more irritable.

However, the neck is getting more and more itchy, more and more itchy, Zhou Long barely opened his eyes, the vision in front of him is blurred, and he can only vaguely see a black shadow, as he gradually adapts to the darkness, at this time, he found that on the top of his head, Cai He is covered with loose hair, looking at himself with a hideous face, and on her neck, a blue and red strangulation mark is clearly visible.
