Chapter XXVII: The Murderer 14 The Main Hall of the Criminal Department
"Are you catching the head or am I the head catcher?" The head catcher called Fang Ye glared with his eyes: "There are only the two of them and this dead man here, and there are others there?"
"This master ......" Ren Tianbai glanced at this Fang Zhutou a few times, and arched his hands: "You don't check your injuries, so you say that we are murderers, and this Taoist master was stabbed to death with a sword, and I and this friend are both defenseless, and we don't even have a murder weapon, how can we kill people?"
"The murder weapon?" Fang Zhutou glanced at Ren Tianbai obliquely, looked into the room, looked at the wide open window and said: "You killed someone, threw the murder weapon out of here, or a fellow party hid it, or someone picked it up, then it may be said, come on, go down and ask, have you ever seen anything strange! You two, you still honestly follow us to the yamen, otherwise, don't blame us for being hard in the yamen!"
The shopkeeper of the restaurant stood aside, and kept giving Fu Dong Zhu a look, Fu Dong Zhu knew very well in his heart that he had been in the Yulin Walled City in the past few days, and he was quite generous, I was afraid that it had been spread all over the city.
"Should this be Fang Zhutou?" Fu Dongzhu had already seen through Fang Zhutou's thoughts, a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth, and said to Fang Zhutou: "The two of us are indeed not murderers, this Daoist is afraid that there is an enemy in this city, but at this moment, it is difficult to explain to Fang Zhutou, but I have something here, which can be corroborated!"
"Well, you look like a sensible person!" Fang Zhutou saw Fu Dongzhu reach out and take out a silver ticket from his arms, and his face suddenly smiled: "We didn't mean to embarrass you, just because this case is really a bit strange, except for the two of you, there is no murder, but since there is a restaurant shopkeeper to testify, you must also be innocent......"
Fang Zhutou's mouth kept talking, but one hand had already stretched out to the silver ticket in the hand of the re-moving bamboo, and he was about to take over it, but the re-moving bamboo retracted his hand, Fang Zhutou's face suddenly changed, and he looked at the re-moving bamboo and said: "What does this mean? Could it be that you dare to play this head?"
"Don't dare to play!" Fu Dongzhu shook his head and said: "It's just that these silver taels are somewhat polite, let's meet Fang Zhutou for the first time, how to say that we have to make a friend, I have another heavy gift, and please Fang Zhutou smile!"
"Then it also depends on the injury of this head catcher, I can't look at it!" The corners of Fang Zhutou's mouth slanted, secretly revealing a little smugness, but Ren Tianbai was a little strange, I didn't know what kind of mystery this re-moving bamboo was making, so I saw him take out something from his arms, about half the size of a palm, buckled it in his hand, and gently handed it to Fang Zhutou and said: "That's it, I don't know if Fang Zhutou likes it!"
"What is this?" Fang Zhutou was stunned, he originally thought that the re-moving bamboo this time to shoot, it must be something rare, and hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but the re-moving bamboo was a volley, Fang Zhutou hurriedly grabbed it, and was grasping it in his hand, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, it turned out to be a small bronze medal, and he was afraid that he would see it wrong, and he reached out and knocked on it, confirming that it was a bronze medal, in fact, this bronze medal is not big, even if it is pure gold, the value is limited!
"I think you're thinking in vain!" Ren Tianbai saw at a glance that the bronze medal had some origins, but this Fang Zhutou took the bronze medal and turned it over and over, and the anger on his face gradually rose, and he knew that this person was afraid that he was illiterate, and he couldn't see the words engraved on the bronze medal at all, so he shook his head and said to Fudongzhu: "This big catcher, I'm afraid that Dou Da's words can't be read for a while, isn't it the same as asking Yu Blind?"
"What words are engraved on this broken brand!" Fang Zhutou listened to Ren Tianbai clearly ridiculing himself, his eyes widened, he reached out and grabbed the shopkeeper of the restaurant and said: "You read it to Lao Tzu, let me see what tricks the two of them are playing with Lao Tzu?"
"It's engraved with ...... Engraved is ......" The shopkeeper of the restaurant held a bronze medal, and saw that one side was engraved with nine stars connected, like an iron chain around the neck, but he didn't understand what it meant.
"What kind of words are engraved on this?" Fang Zhutou couldn't wait, turned his head and glared at the shopkeeper and said, "Do you know the fuck or not, hurry up, otherwise Lao Tzu will smash your shitty restaurant!"
"That's engraved on the main hall of the Daming Criminal Department!" Fu Dongzhu knew that the shopkeeper of the restaurant did not dare to rashly read out the handwriting on it, and said it coldly on the side, and the shopkeeper knelt down to the ground with a puff, held the bronze medal high with both hands, and said in his mouth: "The little one should die, the little one should die!" I don't know if the adult arrives, how offended, how offended!"
"Punishment ...... Penal Department...... The main hall?" Fang Zhutou was also a little stunned by the handwriting on the bronze medal, those few catchers had already knelt down first, but Fu Dongzhu reached out to take the bronze medal from the hands of the shopkeeper, coughed and said: "What? Since you are a fast catcher, haven't you ever heard of the main hall token of the Criminal Department? This token is personally issued by the Master Shangshu of the Criminal Department, and the officials below the prefecture and county level must help each other in investigating the case with this token, and all the yamen must act according to orders, Fang Zhutou, do you still want to take me?"
"You...... Are you from the Criminal Department?" Fang Zhutou only understood what this token meant, and glanced back at the restaurant shopkeeper who was leaning over the ground and didn't dare to look up, and suddenly his knees weakened, and he slowly knelt down, and said with his mouth open...... Subordinate...... I don't know if adults are coming...... This one...... This is so offensive......"
"It doesn't matter if you know it or not!" Fu Dongzhu put the token back in his arms, and the corner of his eye gently swept Ren Tianbai, who looked immovable, and then said: "I am also on the order of the Lord of the Criminal Department this time, secretly investigating a few cases, this Taoist Master is a witness in one of the cases, he was killed today, if you have to take me to the yamen for a walk, when the time comes to meet your family, I will have to convict you of a crime of poor precautions!"
"Your Excellency is wronged, you are wronged!" Fang Zhutou hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Excellency came to Yulin Walled City, and you did not send someone to inform your subordinates before, your subordinates really don't know that your Excellency You have important tasks, and today is really a little offended, I hope that your adult has a lot, and you will bear more, your subordinates will go, and your subordinates will go, and they will go!"
"The main hall of the Criminal Department!" Ren Tianbai looked at Fang Zhutou with a few arresters, and went out in a hurry, only then did he look at Fu Dongzhu and sneered: "It seems that Zunjia is a subordinate of the Chief Arrest of Chai, and this token should be issued only by the Criminal Department of the Beijing Division, and it seems that Zunjia is not doing business, but tracking Ren's whereabouts?"
