Wei Zhanmei's body is naturally much inferior to Hua Lanting, but today's divine soul is Hua Lanting's own, and it is weakened after crossing over, and it is easy to find that someone is following.

Just when he was thinking about whether to enter the alley deep in the flowers to solve the problem, or continue to move forward to observe and wait for changes, a team of embroidered guards hurriedly ran over from the opposite side, and a person in front of the head came to the front and said: "Wei Zongqi, it's finally time for you, there is an accident in the city, and the big pavilion orders you to immediately put down the affairs at hand and go to help." ”

"What's going on?" Wei Zhanmei asked.

"Huang Chonghu, the leader of the Qinglong Gang, has just been assassinated and killed, Taishou has ordered martial law in the whole city, and let Nanzhen Fusi arrest the murderer within a time limit, Jiang Qianhu wants to protect the envoy and his party can't get away, Tong Baihu has already rushed to the scene, and the big pavilion leader asks you to assist. ”

Wei Zhan's eyebrows immediately flashed Huang Chonghu's relevant information.

This Huang Chonghu was originally one of the local snakes in the city of Yingdu, after Qingchuan defeated Yingdu, several other local gang leaders refused to be slaves of the country, and fled out of the city, only this Huang Chonghu stayed, after gathering people from all sides, the Qinglong Gang became the largest gang organization in the city, and actively cooperated with the new master to sweep away the lurking rebel forces.

As a result, Huang Chonghu was regarded as a traitor by the rebels who aimed to restore the country, the eagle dogs and accomplices of the puppet small court, and they were on their must-kill list.

This is not a small matter, no wonder Taishou personally asked. Wei Zhanmei knew that Zhang Hulei, a thousand households in the Nanzhen Fu Division, who was full-time to detect and arrest thieves, was sent to the suburbs on business, and now Tong Xiang Baihu took over the position, but Tong Xiang was not born to arrest Kuai, and Hu Shiwei asked him to help deal with it.

Wei Zhanmei then asked the embroidered guard to lead the way in front, and after passing through the morning mayor street, he could no longer sense the trace of the person who was watching, probably because he saw the embroidery guard coming, and temporarily gave up tracking.

After a while, when I arrived at the place of the incident, it was a bathhouse, and the surrounding road had been closed, and the people of Nanzhen Fusi were inspecting the scene.

Wei Zhanmei went inside and found Tong Xiang: "Lord Baihu, the big pavilion ordered me to come to help, how is the situation?"

Tong Xiang looked up and saw that it was him, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled: "Who is my Dao, it turned out to be Wei Zongqi, oh no, now it should be Wei Baihu." The yali has spread, and the big pavilion leader is ready to promote you again, you and I are at the same level, and there is no need to call this adult in the future. ”

Tong Xiang is keen on fame, and he was sent down from the new capital Yingdu, and he has never looked down on local people, Wei Zhanmei knew that he was jealous of his rapid promotion all the way, and said at the moment: "Lord Baihu is serious, and he has not been formally appointed yet, and he has been ordered to come and listen to the dispatch." ”

Tong Xiang didn't say much more, and introduced: "I have already asked clearly, the murderer is very cunning, I heard that the Huang gang leader often comes here to take a bath, he put on the same clothes as the Huang gang leader's personal guard, and when the people came out, he yelled next to him that there was an assassin, and then took advantage of the chaos at the time, mixed into the escort team, and suddenly shot when everyone protected the Huang gang leader's retreat, and killed him with a knife." ”

"What clues can be left at the scene?"

"The assassin's methods are clean and clean, and he quickly escapes after succeeding, but the Huang gang leader is not so easy to kill, he was stabbed in the shoulder by a bodyguard when he fled, and he bled out, and I have ordered someone to follow. Since you're here, come and see the corpse, I still have something for you to confirm. ”

The two came to the corpse together, the assassin accurately hit Huang Chonghu's heart with a knife, Wei Zhanmei gently opened his clothes to check the knife edge, Tong Xiang asked on the side:

"Wei Zongqi, I always feel that this wound is not ordinary, it seems that I have seen a similar description in the case file, but I can't remember it for a while, you have been in the yaya longer than me, do you have an impression of this?"

Wei Zhanmei was secretly shocked in his heart, he had already recognized who caused this knife wound with what weapon, he originally wanted not to say it, but he didn't expect Tong Xiang to ask him like this at this time.

Tong Xiang: What does this mean? Do you really not know or pretend not to know?

Wei Zhan's eyebrows flashed, and he replied: "The knife edge is not deep, and the flesh is very shallow, and it can be decisively withdrawn after achieving the effect of killing, without wasting a trace of strength, this technique is undoubted, this time it should be Zhuang Ji of the Restoration Hoeing Alliance!"

Tong Xiang sighed: "When Wei Zongqi said this, I remembered it all of a sudden." That's right, the Restoration of the Hoe-Rape Alliance, the No. 1 killer Zhuang Ji in Tianzi. Didn't he always be active in the vicinity of Yingdu? Unexpectedly, in order to kill Huang Chonghu, he was actually transferred. ”

Wei Zhanmei: "It's not surprising, the Huang gang leader is heavily guarded, and the rebels have failed several times, so they have to play this big card." However, Tong Baihu, I heard that this Zhuang Ji is not only light, but also strong in martial arts, I am afraid that he will be able to stop the bleeding soon, and your people may not be able to catch him. ”

Tong Xiang said with a smile: "Wei Zongqi is right, but Zhuang Ji met me this time, so he didn't have such good luck." ”

"What do you say?" Wei Zhanmei asked.

"Without him, it's just care and luck. I had found a small fragment of his clothes cut by a blade from the bloodstains on the ground, and I might not be able to catch up with the blood, but with the smell of a trained hound, I would be able to find his whereabouts. ”

Wei Zhan's eyebrows remained silent and praised: "It is said that Tong Baihu is not from the Six Doors, but this hand is very powerful, and the mark is to congratulate Baihu in advance on winning the important criminals of the imperial court." ”

Tong Xiang laughed: "It's easy to say, wait for the next shot, I really caught Zhuang Ji, and your credit is indispensable." ”

At this time, an embroidered guard posted it and whispered a few words, and Tong Xiangxi said: "I found it, leave ten people here, and the rest will go with me to arrest the murderer." ”

The brigade of embroidered guards quickly surrounded and sealed off a secluded area in the south of the city, where the terrain was complex and dozens of families were distributed.

When they arrived, the small flag officer of the embroidered clothes came up to report the situation, Tong Xiang and Wei Zhanmei hid next to a chimney on a higher roof, Tong Xiang ordered: "Wait for all the personnel to be in place, listen to my orders, and send people to attack the door." ”

While waiting, Wei Zhanmei suddenly said: "Lord Baihu, the houses and alleys here are dense, Zhuang Ji may not be alone, and he needs to guard against people fleeing in multiple ways, so as not to fall into the plan of diverting the tiger from the mountain." ”

Tong Xiang tilted his head and asked, "Well, what do you suggest?"

"It's better for you to defend one side in the south and me in the north, if there is more than one master among them, they can take care of it. ”

Tong Xiang thought for a while and said, "No need, you can look down here, wait a minute, according to the situation, you can just listen to my orders." ”

Wei Zhanmei stepped back and said nothing.

After arranging, the embroidered guards broke into the door after calling the door, and then the chickens and dogs jumped and there was a sound of fighting, and the embroidered guards behind rushed up, and several figures flew out of the courtyard to go to the room, and they scattered and fled.

Tong Xiang didn't act immediately, he watched carefully for a moment, and pointed to a person in one direction with one hand: "Beizhen Fusi has a record, Zhuang Ji is thin and small, everyone follows me." Wei Zongqi, you stay behind to clean up the mess and exterminate the remnants. Let's go!"

Wei Zhanmei took the initiative to offer a plan just to set up suspicions, making Tong Xiang suspect that he wanted to fight for merit, but Tong Xiang was really fooled and did not let him participate in the arrest, which was in his arms.

After Tong Xiang left, Wei Zhanmei slowly descended to the courtyard, the battle was over, except for a few people who fled, the rest refused to surrender, and all fought to death.

Wei Zhanmei ordered the embroidered guards to clean up the corpses quickly, clean up the battlefield, and after searching the surrounding courtyards, he asked some people to bring the corpses back to the ya, and the other part to pick up Tong Xiang.

After all the embroidered guards were withdrawn, Wei Zhanmei stayed alone.

At this time, the sun began to set in the west, and the surrounding houses were closed and silent, so he turned over and went straight to a place that he had already observed, which was easier to hide and look down on.

There was a small rooftop with a dilapidated shack piled up in a mess, and Wei Zhan tiptoed up to it, ready to find a place to squat.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he approached, a sharp knife light suddenly flew from the side of the shack, slashing down obliquely.

Although Wei Zhanmei was defenseless, a pair of white chopping knives were always clasped in his hands, and he raised his arm in time, crossed his two knives, and blocked the knife.

The two were about to change their moves, but they withdrew their hands at the same time, and Wei Zhanmei blurted out: "Zhang Qianhu, why are you?

The person on the other side was quite old, his beard was white, and he said: "It turned out to be you kid, okay, there is progress, you can find here, and you live up to my previous orders." ”

This person is none other than Zhang Hulei, one of the two thousand households in Nanzhen Fusi, who was originally one of the three major gods of the six gates of Chaohua Yingdu.

After the defeat of Chaohua, because hundreds of members of his family have lived in the city for several generations, it is difficult for him to escape alone, and the family also needs to rely on his position and prestige to support his family.

More than a month ago, Zhang Hulei was seconded to a suburban county to solve a big case, but he didn't expect to meet again unexpectedly here.

Zhang Hulei pulled Wei and raised his eyebrows, and the two squatted under the shack.

Zhang Hulei said: "If you meet, you don't have to hide it." The Great Pavilion Leader received a secret report that Zhuang Ji, the number one killer of the Restoration Gang Rape Alliance, was likely to go south to Yingdu, although he did not know his purpose at the time, but the Great Pavilion Leader decided to arrest this person, which would not only make meritorious contributions, but also make the Beizhen Fusi, who had not been able to bring this official to justice for a long time, deflated. ”

"The big pavilion leader pretended to send me out, in fact, I have been hiding in the city to find out secretly, but his whereabouts are secret, although I have clues, but both times I was too late to take half a step into the air, until this time there was something about Huang Chonghu. Alas, he was still a good chess player and couldn't take him down before he made a move. ”

"But I've followed the embroidered guards here, and I can't miss it again this time. Xiao Weizi, how did you tell that Zhuang Ji was still hiding in this area?"

Wei Zhan said vaguely: "I'm not sure, I just think that the world-famous Zhuang Ji was not exposed so easily, and escaping from that might be a suspicious tactic." Tong Xiang was afraid that I would steal the credit and not let me participate, so I held my breath and wanted to try if I could wait for the rabbit, but I was not sure, it was just to try my luck by beating the rabbit with grass. ”

"By the way, Zhang Tou, how did you conclude that the one who escaped was not Zhuang Ji?"

Zhang Hulei has a very high prestige in the gate of Yingdu Yamen, usually treats people and is kind, and he also took Wei Zhanmei with him when he first came, so Wei Zhanmei is used to calling him by the commonly used name in the fast line.

Zhang Hulei smiled: "You kid has always been smart, and your luck is good." ”

"I'm not blind, in order to catch Zhuang Ji, I specially asked the big pavilion leader to apply for access to the criminal department's files about him over the years, as well as the relevant archive records of the inner court that are difficult to see, after careful research, I found that although it does not appear every time a crime is committed, this person seems to have a partner to cooperate with him, so that Zhuang Ji can escape at a critical moment. ”

So I didn't act rashly, I just wanted to confirm whether my judgment was correct. If it is true that you happen to be there to help, I will let him take wings this time. Well, now is not the time to speak, you and I will be patient. ”

After speaking, Zhang Hulei curled up, closed his eyes, and quietly felt the wind and grass around him.

Wei Zhanmei also moved to the other side, following Zhang Hulei's example to listen to the movement.

However, he seemed to be calm and breathing steadily, but in fact he was very anxious in his heart, but with Zhang Hulei, a big master, by his side, he didn't come up with a good way to deal with it.

The sunset is about to set, the sky is getting darker and darker, Wei Zhan's eyebrows are sweating in his palms, his heart is fluctuating, he is the chief flag officer of the Nanzhen Fusi on the surface, but secretly he has another identity - one of the "Thirteen Taibao" of the "Shadow Heavy" secret organization.
