Chapter 167: The Puzzle [Part II]

Zhao Rang and Ximen Dazhuang sat in the private room for the two of them and drank tea.

The tea is still Tieguanyin, and the shopkeeper specially brewed it stronger.

The tea made by Yu Xi last night, Zhao Rang didn't drink much. When I was thirsty in the second half of the night, the tea was already cold.

Zhao Rang has never been able to drink the cold tea...... I feel like there's an earthy smell.

"Luoyue Tower's Tieguanyin is still worse than mine!"

Zhao Rangpin took a sip and said.

Simon Da Zhuang doesn't understand tea.

Instead, he likes to drink cold.

Because you can't drink tea that is too hot, it will make people thirstier and thirstier the more you drink. So he had a separate teapot each time, opened the lid and left it there to dry. After the temperature drops, I pour it into my stomach again, and I think this is the only way to enjoy it.

"Young Master!"

Yu Xi's voice outside the door sounded a little panicked.

He didn't even bother to knock on the door, pushed the door open, and said:

"Young Master, something happened to Chang Chun Yuan!"

Zhao Rang frowned and asked:

"What's wrong? Don't rush yet, take a sip of tea and speak slowly. ”

"I don't know what's going on, there are a lot of people around the gate of Changchun Garden, and there are a lot of sergeants there, and there are also people in the official mansion."

Zhao Rang and Ximen Dazhuang glanced at each other, got up, and didn't even bother to say hello to the shopkeeper, so they rushed to Changchun Garden.

"So many people ......"

The street where Ivy Garden is located is crowded with people from the beginning of the street.

Ximen Dazhuang casually pulled a few people to ask, and the answers he got were the same, all of them didn't know.

"You ask them what's the use, they're all here to see the fun. And standing in such a back, you can't see the heat when you look at the excitement! ”

Zhao Rang struggled to squeeze forward, and it took a lot of effort to squeeze in front of the crowd.

At the gate of the Ivy Garden, there were patrolling sergeants, armed with spears, constantly scolding the crowd and preventing them from approaching.

One of the squad leaders recognized Ximen Da Zhuang, stepped forward and saluted, saying:

"Master Ximen, you better go quickly, this is not a small matter today!"

Simon Dazhuang asked:

"What's wrong? I'm still waiting to invite the people inside to dinner! ”

The squad leader smiled wryly and said:

"Young Master, if you're joking, it doesn't matter. If there were any friends in there, you would still ...... Condolences change! ”

The team leader looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to their conversation, so he whispered.

"Condolences?"

"There's a dead man in there?"

Ximen Dazhuang's voice was a little loud, which immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.

The team leader quickly made a silent gesture, pulled him aside, and said:

"Young Master, can you be quiet...... The prefect gave a death order, and no one could leak the affairs in the garden, otherwise he would wait for prison food until death for half his life! ”

Looking around weakly, the team leader said gloomily:

"I didn't go in to see the specifics, but I heard that it was very evil...... The prefect has notified the Investigation Division, so don't join in the fun here, young master, how unlucky! ”

Ximen Dazhuang nodded, gave the team leader a silver ingot, sent him away, and then turned to Zhao Rang and said:

"Brother Jean, can we get in?"

With the skills of the two of them and their familiarity with the Ivy Garden, it was not difficult to avoid the sergeant and sneak in.

But the premise is to know what is really going on inside and whether there is no need to go in.

If it is not necessary, it will increase the risk if you rush in.

Although the sergeant will not do anything to them, the prefect has given strict orders, and this face still has to be given.

"Let's take a look, don't rush yet."

Zhao Rang and Ximen Dazhuang were already standing at the front of the crowd, looking in from the door, but they couldn't see anything.

Suddenly, a young girl came out of the inside, who was the one next to Zhang Zong last night.

She showed a waist card to the sergeant on duty at the door, and said:

"Lord Commander let these two in."

The sergeant on duty didn't dare to slack off, but the girl was holding the waist card of the Investigation Division!

Even the prefect of Suluo City had to laugh when he saw this shadow guard commander of the Investigation Division, not to mention that he was just a small sergeant captain.

"Thank you, girl!"

The girl led the two of them straight inside, through the courtyard, and into the hall.

Zhang Zong stood in the middle of the hall, looking down at the ground, his brows furrowed, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Master, Zhao Gongzi and Ximen Gongzi are here!"

The girl said softly, and Zhang Zong raised his head and arched his hand at Zhao Rang and Ximen Dazhuang.

"I'm tired of the two of you!"

赵力 says:

"Commander Zhang is polite. I wonder what's going on here? ”

Zhang Zong took a deep breath and asked:

"Zhao Gongzi came to Ivy Garden last night, right?"

Zhao Rang nodded yes, thinking that you didn't ask knowingly! When he came in, when he went out, and when he went out, he knew better than himself.

"Have you seen anything unusual?"

Zhao Rang thought to himself, wasn't the biggest anomaly that Aunt Shu sold Ivy Garden to Long Fanhui? Last night, in the Zhongtang newspaper on the first floor, I also wrote about the Longfan Club.

"It's nothing, I saw a four-hanger car parked in the garden."

Zhang Zong was silent, and then asked:

"What are the two of you coming to Ivy Garden for?"

Zhao Rang felt that today's Zhang Zong was very different from last night.

It seems that the questions are peaceful, but in fact they are all hidden blades.

Zhao Rang didn't dare to answer casually, and after careful consideration, he said:

"I am friends with Aunt Shu, the housekeeper of Changchun Garden, and when I heard that she was leaving, I booked a table in Luoyue Building, ready to see her off!"

After hearing this, Zhang Zong sneered again and again, and asked rhetorically in a pinched tone:

"Are you friends with Aunt Shu?"

赵力 says:

"Of course! Ivy Garden, Ximen Dazhuang and I often come here, and the whole Suluo City knows about it. ”

Zhang Zong's tone made Zhao Rang a little unhappy.

He knows everything about himself, so why do he have to pretend like this? Could it be that the sergeants around him are making a show? But there's no need to ......

The Investigation Department is transcendent and independent, and even the feudal officials cannot be assigned, so there is no need to give any explanation to the local sergeants.

"I wonder what happened to Ivy Garden? It actually alarmed Commander Zhang! ”

The more Zhao Rang thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.

"Bring it up and help Zhao Gongzi recall what happened here!"

The Detective Division Shadow Guard, who was standing around, took the order, turned around and walked towards the backyard.

The two of them pushed out of the backyard with a four-trailer cart.

The car was covered with a black tarpaulin, but it couldn't hide the strong smell of blood and bad smell.

"Lift!"

Shadow Wei Lisuo uncovered the tarpaulin on the cart, and on each of the four carts, a corpse lay on it.

There were three corpses that were deliberately ruined, and Zhao Rang couldn't see it. But the corpse in the car in the middle, Zhao Rang couldn't be more familiar.

Aunt Shu!

"How is that possible!"

Ximen Dazhuang couldn't help but exclaim.

"Last night was fine!"

Zhao Rang's pupils shrank in shock.

The first object of his suspicion was Jiang Lang.

Business belongs to business, although he came forward to buy Ivy Garden as a pawn of the Longfan Club, he must have exposed some details in front of Aunt Shu.

The people of the Longfan Club may feel uneasy, so Jiang Lang will cut the grass and eradicate the roots and never suffer in the future.

"This should be done by the Nujiang Gang, Commander Zhang only needs to find Jiang Lang to inquire!"

Zhang Zong sneered and said:

"Zhao Gongzi said it well! It just so happens that this commander thinks the same as you think, so he has already called the deputy leader of the Nujiang Gang! ”

After saying that, they threw a look at the shadow guards, and they immediately brought out someone from behind, it was the second brother who took the lead in making trouble in Lao Guang Roast Rana yesterday.

"Lord Commander! My brother was killed by this surnamed Zhao, you must be the master for me! ”

Zhao Rang was choked by these words.

I have heard that the wicked sue first, but how can it make sense that there is such a distance between heaven and earth?

Pressing his temperament, Zhao Rang asked rhetorically:

"Your brother is dead?"

The second brother wiped his snot and tears with his sleeve, then pointed to a corpse on the shelf car whose face he couldn't see clearly, and said:

"This is my brother! Killed by you, killed by you with a black knife, I saw it with my own eyes! Fortunately, I hid at the time and didn't dare to speak out, otherwise I would have died! ”

The second brother swore by it, but made Zhao Rang laugh.

A corpse with a ruined face, just with the second brother's mouth, he doesn't want to say who it is?

Besides, if you really want to make a move on Jiang Lang, how can you hide?

When he was looking through the file last night, Zhao Rang suddenly felt that his cultivation was a little loose, as if he was about to completely break to the fourth-grade realm.

Sipinjing is also known as the little grandmaster, and after he ascends, he can really be regarded as a party figure in the rivers and lakes.

If it weren't for these trivial matters, Zhao Rang would definitely practice swords behind closed doors, and maybe he would be able to break into the realm of the four-grade little grandmaster before the Mid-Autumn Festival!

On the other hand, Jiang Lang has entered the fifth grade at most. And his younger brother, the second brother, is even enough for six grades. If even he can avoid Zhao Rang's detection, or at such a close distance as he can witness Zhao Rang's killing, then Zhao Rang doesn't need to practice knives.

Yuan Mingkong had cultivated the shadow guard's breath collection trick, and Zhao Rang could still detect it, not to mention him, a second-half hanger.

"Commander Zhang, I had a holiday with him, so this must be a false accusation."

Zhang Zong said in a deep voice: m.

"Of course I know you have a holiday with him, but don't you and his brother, the leader of the Nujiang Gang, also have a holiday? If there is a holiday, there is a motive, whether the person was killed by you or not, you are suspicious, is this commander right? ”

Zhao Rang laughed angrily, pressed Ximen Dazhuang, who was about to attack, and said:

Commander Zhang said that there was no problem. By admitting that I had a holiday with him, I admit that I had a motive to kill him. The question is, how can you be sure that this corpse is Jiang Lang, is it just his words? ”

The more Zhao Rang spoke, the more angry he became.

He didn't know what Zhang Zong wanted to do.

Does he think that Zhao Rang is so easy to bully, get a corpse, and find a bastard to say a few words of testimony, so that he can make himself soft?

"The deceased is his own brother, the Investigation Department has already investigated, Jiang Lang's parents died when he was a child, and he and his younger brother depend on each other. The eldest brother is like a father, would you mistake your father's corpse? ”1

Zhao Rang narrowed his eyes.

Zhang Zong: This is iron, and he can't get along with himself.
