Chapter Seventy-Two: The Death of the Cell Boss

Looking at the wine and roast chicken in the old yellow head's hand, Ye Feng's heart moved.

He remembered his brother-in-law, Zhang Fatzi.

Due to the lockdown, there is a shortage of food in Xi'an, and since entering Xi'an City, they have not eaten such extravagant food as meat and wine.

This is undoubtedly painful for the fat man Zhang who has no meat and no joy.

If he were here, he would be very happy to see this wine and roast chicken, right?

It's a pity that he's not here now.

He is now in a highly toxic and unconscious state.

I don't know how his situation is now? Ye Feng couldn't help but start to worry a little.

Although both he and Xie Zhenliang had already consumed Ye Feng's blood, and the poison of the golden toad in it was obviously effective against the poison in them, but after so much time, I don't know if they are still in danger now?

After all, the Five Poison Sect is a person who can manipulate Gu poison and create such a huge plague, and the poison they give is definitely not to be underestimated.

Ye Feng looked at the wine fat chicken in the old yellow man's hand, and was a little stunned.

The old yellow head saw Ye Feng's eyes staring at the wine and food in his hand, thinking that he was moved, so he added: "This chicken is a big rooster in the family that has just been slaughtered, and the villain makes it himself, which is absolutely safe and hygienic." ”

Ye Feng smiled faintly, and then asked a little strangely: "Now during the lockdown period, there is such a shortage of food outside, how can you still be willing to slaughter the big rooster at home? Is there anything worth celebrating?"

The old yellow head smiled a little embarrassedly, shook his head and said, "No." It's just because an old man in the prison said he wanted to eat this bite. ”

Ye Feng felt even more strange: "Is this old man a prisoner very special? Could it be that he is about to die, this is the severed chicken he ate before his execution?"

Ye Feng once stayed in Jinyiwei, and naturally heard that the prison will give preferential treatment to death row inmates before execution, especially the last meal will be very rich, and the most important thing is to eat chicken, which is called "decapitated chicken".

It's just that this meal is naturally paid for by the public, could it be that the food in Xi'an City has been in short supply to such an extent that the jailers need to kill their own chickens to make decapitated chickens for death row prisoners?

The old yellow man listened to Ye Feng's question, hesitated slightly, and he didn't know the whereabouts of the old man now, whether he was still alive or not.

Even if it's a severed head chicken, I'm afraid he won't be able to eat it.

He couldn't help but feel a pang of regret in his heart, perhaps for the unfathomable old man, or for his own bright future that had vanished.

He sighed, and told Ye Feng and Tang Da about the mysterious old man who suddenly appeared and disappeared on death row without concealment.

Tang Da didn't feel anything when he heard it, he was just a missing old prisoner on death row, and such things might often happen in prison, which seemed to have nothing to do with the ** of the Five Poisons Sect that they were tracking down now.

However, Ye Feng blinked, as if he felt some interest: "When did that old man disappear?"

Old Huang Tou thought for a while and replied, "When I delivered dinner at dusk yesterday, he told me that he wanted to drink wine and eat roast chicken. I wasn't on duty last night, so I did it at home, and when I came to the prison early this morning to take over, I found that he was gone. ”

Ye Feng asked with some curiosity: "Why do you take care of this old man like this? He wants to eat roast chicken, you don't hesitate to kill the big rooster in the family to satisfy him, why?"

The old yellow head did not hide it, and honestly told the strangeness of this old man, as well as his idea of wanting the old man to give him some pointers, in order to get out of the predicament and find a good future.

Ye Feng nodded, speaking of which, this old yellow man's actions were reasonable.

He looked at the old yellow head and suddenly asked, "Since you have pinned your own future on him, is it?"

Didn't you ask about him, at least find out who he is?"

The old yellow head shook his head.

The prison is a dark place, not only where the sequels are kept, but also where many dark and dirty things often happen.

The old yellow head has been in prison for so many years, and he understands this deeply, the more he knows, it is not a good thing, only the ignorant are the safest.

Therefore, what he has always believed is that what he should know, someone will tell him, and what he should not know, he will never inquire.

Ye Feng seemed to understand his thoughts, and did not continue to ask, but thought about it, and asked a different question: "You said that this old man suddenly appeared on death row, and there were no formalities and records to check at all, did such things happen often before?"

Old Huang Tou thought about it for a moment and replied, "It's happened a few times before, but it's not very much. ”

Ye Feng asked, "Who can do this kind of thing?"

Lao Huangtou replied while thinking about it: "First of all, the cell boss, as long as he nods, he can detain people in, and the formalities are not up to him." ”

"There is also the head catcher of the government office, because some of the thieves he captured are strong martial arts thieves in the green forest, Jiangyang thieves, these people need to be closely guarded, and they are often handed over to escort away after a few days, so sometimes the formalities are not so complete. ”

Tang Da listened a little misty on the sidelines.

He and Ye Feng followed the secret passage to track down here, in order to find out the whereabouts of the Five Poison Gates, why did Ye Feng suddenly seem to be interested in an old prisoner in the mouth of this jailer, and asked about him?

At this moment, he heard Ye Feng ask the old yellow head in a calm voice, "What about the prefect, can he do it?"

The old yellow head was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously replied: "This is the largest official position of the prefect, and he can naturally do it." But why would he do it?"

Ye Feng smiled, didn't answer the old yellow head's words, and asked rhetorically: "What do you think of this prefect Lord Zhao, how is his personality?"

When the old yellow head heard this, he felt a little frightened: "What is the identity of the villain, how dare you evaluate the prefect?"

Ye Feng smiled very casually: "Let's talk casually, but it's okay to say it." ”

The old yellow head looked up at the two people in front of him with some vigilance, looking at their speaking demeanor, it was clear that they were not ordinary people, and now he asked about the prefect, maybe this identity is special, but I am afraid that it is not just a person who is familiar with the prefect.

He did not dare to slack off, and replied respectfully: "Since the previous prefect was questioned for accepting bribes and embezzling public funds, this Lord Zhao took office, and in the past three years, he has been diligent in political affairs and loves the people like a son.

Ye Feng smiled, this old yellow man mistakenly regarded the two of them as "on a bad business".

But that's right, who would be an ordinary person to keep asking about a prefect?

He didn't bother to defend himself.

However, he believed the words of the old yellow head, the old yellow head's expression was so sincere, his words were so sincere, there was no perfunctory and hypocrisy, and he really admired the prefect from the bottom of his heart.

In this way, this Xi'an prefect Zhao Zongru Zhao is really a good official?

After thinking about it, he suddenly asked, "You said before that the cell boss is the boss here, so no matter who got that old man in, the cell boss must know?"

The old yellow head nodded again and again: "This is natural." ”

Ye Feng asked slowly, "So where is this cell boss now?" I want to see him. ”

The old yellow head thought for a while: "The cell boss was on duty last night and should be in prison."

On the night shift, I'm afraid I'm still sleeping in his own bedroom. ”

Ye Feng looked up at the sun that was approaching noon, and said, "Then please lead the way, let's go meet him and ask a few questions." ”

The errand commanded, the old yellow head did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly led the way in front, followed by Ye Feng, who was full of worries, and Tang Da, who had been listening inexplicably.

Isn't it to track down the whereabouts of the Five Poison Gate? Why are you going to see that cell boss again?

Could it be that there is any connection between this cell boss and the Five Poison Sects?

The more Tang Da listened, the more strange he felt, but he never spoke.

Because he believed in Ye Feng, he believed that he must have his reasons for doing this.

If there is anyone who can find clues from the fog in front of him, this person must be Ye Feng.

Tang Da definitely has such confidence.

The cell boss's dormitory was not far away, in a row of houses behind the cell.

The old yellow head came to the door, knocked lightly, and called in a low voice: "Boss, boss! ”

After a few calls, there was no movement inside.

Could it be that the cell boss is not in the room?

Or was last night's night shift too tired and too deep to hear?

Ye Feng and Tang Da glanced at each other, and they didn't hear any breathing sound in the room.

Ye Feng's face changed, he stepped forward quickly, and with a strong palm, he pushed open the closed door with a snap.

The door was hidden, and the latch was not inserted from the inside.

The door opened, and the old yellow head saw at a glance that the cell head was clearly lying on the bed, neatly dressed, motionless.

However, Ye Feng and Tang Da knew that this person was dead.

When I got closer, I saw that the cell boss had his eyes wide open, his mouth and tongue open, his face was pitch black, and he was bleeding from his seven orifices, which was clearly poisoned and died.

The old yellow head trembled with fright, and the wine and fat chicken he was carrying in his hand fell to the ground at once, his legs were weak, and he could hardly stand, and said in a trembling voice: "This, what's going on? He, why is he dead?"

Ye Feng shook his head, as if he was not very surprised, but said lightly: "It's really fast, I'm afraid I already did it last night." ”

Tang Da stepped forward to check the corpse, it was already cold and hard, nodded and said, "Yes, he was poisoned last night." ”

He couldn't help but ask Ye Feng, "Could it be that this cell leader also has something to do with the Five Poison Sect, why did he die?"

Ye Feng sighed: "His death is naturally because he knows some secrets that must not be revealed. ”

Tang Da thought of the question that Ye Feng had been asking about the prefect just now, and couldn't help but change color in shock and asked, "Could it be that it is really ...... who colluded with the Five Poison Sect?"

Ye Feng shook his head and stopped him with his eyes to continue.

At this time, the old yellow head on the side was only frightened, his soul was scattered, and he kept reading: "What the hell is going on? Who killed him?"

Ye Feng turned his head to look at the old yellow head: "Do you really want to know?"

In an instant, the old yellow man's mind suddenly flashed with that wise saying, ignorance is a blessing, and he immediately closed his mouth.

Knowing nothing is the safest thing.

Ye Feng suddenly smiled at the old yellow head and said, "Although that old man is missing, it seems that your future is still coming." Congratulations, as of today, you have been promoted to cell boss. ”

The old yellow head was taken aback, and asked in disbelief: "Shangcha, is what Shangcha said true?"

Ye Feng smiled slightly: "Naturally it's true, although we are not on the top, but there is really a boss here, and that is the chief arrester of the Criminal Department." ”

As soon as his words fell, a figure walked in outside the door, with a gloomy face and a hooked nose, it was the head of the criminal department, often unrighteous!
