Chapter 146 Instruments

As the sky got dark, they decided to let the county order go into the ground first, because the gang of mountain bandits had indeed been doing evil in the vicinity for many years and were familiar with the terrain, so they were not in a hurry to search for them.

It's also a good thing that Xiao Yiran didn't recognize Cui Xihao, otherwise some things would be difficult to handle later, so Xiao Qishu also pretended not to know, and everyone dispersed.

After returning to the small courtyard, Song Qingyou looked extremely excited, "Look at what I say!" I didn't expect it to be an acquaintance, it's really God to help me, Fang Cheng can't die this time! ”

After the excitement, he began to make trouble again, and Song Qingyou sat in the small courtyard frowning.

After going through so many things, the tacit understanding between the two of them is getting higher and higher, and at this time, Xiao Qishu saw that Song Qingyou didn't speak, so he said: "I am thinking that although the murder weapon is an official knife, the case itself is still in a dead end - there are so many official knives, and it is still impossible to put the suspicion on Fang Cheng, right?" ”

I have to admit that the tacit understanding of this kind of wine confidant makes Song Qingyou very useful.

Xiao Qishu continued: "The official knife is considered physical evidence, and what is missing now is a personal witness, maybe we can start with that document." ”

Suddenly, Cheng Yuxi came to the small courtyard, his hair was scattered, his clothes were torn, and he was very embarrassed.

"What's wrong with you?" Song Qingyou asked as he took off his robe and draped it over Cheng Yuxi, helping the person into the room.

Xiao Qishu poured a glass of water and handed it to her, and after two sips, he finally stabilized, and his eyes were red before he could speak.

With such a scene, Song Qingyou had the worst possibility in his heart, and took a deep breath and comforted: "Don't be afraid, I'm very safe here, you can tell me anything, if it's inconvenient, you can let Xiao Qishu go out." ”

Xiao Qishu also understood when he heard this, and got up and prepared to go out.

Cheng Yuxi also understood that Song Qingyou had misunderstood something, and said: "He didn't treat me like this, I was too scared to make it like this." ”

"Whew~" Song Qingyou was also relieved.

Cheng Yuxi began to explain.

It turned out that since Qin Cha arrived in Kushui County, Fang Cheng had been running to Xiao Yiran's residence very frequently, staying for a long time at a time, and during this period, people were kept outside the door, including Xiao Ningning, who could not get close.

However, Xu was frightened today, and after going back, Xiao Yiran began to feel unwell and asked Dr. Sun to see a doctor, and then grabbed a pair of calming medicines, and Fang Cheng didn't bring anyone when he came.

When Cheng Yuxi decocted the medicine and was about to send it over, she heard the two of them talking inside, and wanted to leave, but she vaguely heard the death of the county order, so she stopped and listened, which made her feel terrified.

Surprised, she knocked over the medicine bowl in her hand and shocked the two people in the room, and she definitely couldn't outrun the two men, so she hid in a blind spot and dared to run out when the two of them were in a hurry to find them.

It was dark and scared, and he didn't dare to take the road all the way, so he became embarrassed when he came.

It is indeed similar to Song Qingyou's guess, Fang Cheng and his master had no think tank after falling out, and Xiao Yiran, who had read books and was his eldest brother, became a lifesaver for him.

Xiao Yiran's original intention naturally pushed this kind of big crime of killing heads on the heads of Song Qingyou and Xiao Qishu, but the previous notice was still posted at the city gate, and the weight of Fang Cheng's speech when Qin sent him was also much clearer, so the two of them pushed the crime on the head of the mountain bandits.

Seeing that he had said everything he had heard, the two in front of him were not surprised at all, Cheng Yuxi asked in disbelief: "You already know this?" ”

Xiao Qishu nodded, "I have already guessed, and you have confirmed it." ”

"What are you going to do?"

Song Qingyou's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Let's play Infernal Affairs!" ”

Xiao Qishu was confused when he heard it, Cheng Yuxi's pupils were indeed shocked.

"It's up to you after that!" Song Qingyou patted Cheng Yuxi on the shoulder, "When Fang Cheng tried to blame us before, he brought back a document, claiming to be an eyewitness, and I don't know if it's true or not. If we can find him, the truth will be revealed. ”

"You mean you want me to go back and go undercover and continue eavesdropping on their conversations?" Cheng Yuxi also immediately understood.

"Yes. It's just that you must be careful, since Fang Cheng killed the county order for the sake of his superiority, it is very likely that he will do some dangerous things to you in order to protect himself. This one is up to you. Song Qingyou said and handed a small bag of powder to Cheng Yuxi, "This is some of my special self-defense powder, which can immediately paralyze the enemy, and can be used if you encounter danger." ”

Cheng Yuxi finally went back, but Xiao Yiran had already waited.

"Brother Yiran, what are you doing here so late?"

"Yuxi, I have said more than once that Song Qingyou is not a good thing! Why don't you obey? ”

"I ......" Cheng Yuxi wasn't sure if Xiao Yiran really knew or was blowing her up, so she pretended to be stupid and said, "Brother Yiran, what do you mean?" ”

"You should reflect on it here!"

Xiao Yiran finished and locked the door from the outside.

It's just that Song Qingyou has always liked to take the initiative, now that she knows that the document is the breakthrough, she will definitely take the initiative, tell Cui Ximiao about the paperwork, and remind him to pay attention to the traces of Fang Cheng's actions.

Sure enough, the next day, some soldiers reported that Fang Cheng went to a Zhuangzi outside the city late at night.

Cui Xihao led people to quietly surround Zhuangzi first, and then came to the roof with Xiao Qishu.

"Lord Fang!" The clerk was overjoyed to see Fang Cheng coming, because Fang Cheng promised him that he would give him a sum of money tonight and send him away.

On the roof, Cui Ximiao asked with his eyes, Xiao Qishu nodded, and then he made a gesture to a corner, and the soldiers quietly surrounded Zhuangzi.

Inside the house, Fang Cheng took out a silver ticket and gave it to the clerk, "Here are five hundred taels, marry a wife and have children." ”

Five hundred taels is a huge amount of money for a poor clerk, and after taking it, all his thoughts were on the silver ticket, and he didn't notice the dagger flickering in the cold light behind him.

The clerk was an important witness, but fortunately, Xiao Qishu was quick to pick up a piece of broken tile and hit Fang Cheng's wrist.

Bang Dang –

The dagger was knocked down, and the clerk realized that Fang Cheng wanted to kill people, so he pulled out his legs and ran out.

At this time, Fang Cheng also realized that there was a problem, as long as the clerk died, he would die without proof, how could he be spared? Pick up the dagger on the ground and chase after it.

"Help! Killing!! The clerk shouted in horror as he rushed out.

"Do it!"

Cui Ximiao, who had been waiting for a long time, gave an order.

The quiet Zhuangzi was as bright as day by the fire, and Fangcheng was surrounded by his own soldiers.

"What are you going to do! I'm also an official of the imperial court! Fang Cheng was still holding on to the last trace of luck.

Xiao Qishu and Cui Xihao fell from the roof, while Song Qingyou walked out from behind his own soldiers, looking at Fang Cheng, who was still fighting with trapped beasts, full of sympathy.

Cui Ximiao looked at the frightened paperwork and said, "If you are willing to be a witness, the official can consider giving you a lenient sentence." ”
