Chapter 167: Passing by
The catcher looks like he is only in his early thirties. He is not very old in the experience-based profession of being a catcher, so he has no problem squatting alone on the long street to check for traces. Makes people care too much.
There were many government officials coming and going today, pretending to have seen and cleaned up the murder process in front of half Yunzhao, and everyone could explain it. What's so good about it?
The arrester's uniform seems to be a bit unique, different from Yunzhao's, which makes people take a second look and turn their eyes away.
It wasn't until half an hour passed that the county magistrate led the county magistrate and the brigade of government servants in a hurry, ran to the young arrester, and bowed deeply together:
"The Chief Su Shen has come to Yunzhao. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar!"
The chief arrester stood up and said calmly:
"Your Excellency, the county magistrate, there is no need to be polite. , Su is just a policeman, come here It’s just for investigating the case, you’re welcome.”
The county magistrate insisted and bowed to the ground with a very low profile:
“The famous Su Shenzhou came in person, I believe this case will be solved soon! ”
Su Xing looked at the faint blood stains on the ground again, and said calmly:
"I also met it at the right time. Is there any case in the world that can be solved for sure? I can only say that I will try my best. Your Excellency, the county magistrate, the previous eyewitnesses Are you there? I have something to ask them."
"Of course! Su Shen, please go to the county office."
The county magistrate straightened up and pulled up his robe. Shou, be the first to lead the way.
The group of people entered the county government office in a grand manner, causing people on the street to look at each other and start talking about Su Xing's identity.
Su Xing sat in the county government office and asked several government officials, common people and Yu Chunsheng's family members about the scene at that time. He then took out Xie Yuan's files recorded by the county government and looked at them:
"Xie Yuan , people from Xiaoshi Village rarely make a living as woodcutter. Later, he entered the Tieyimen of Panlong Town to practice martial arts, and then joined the Longteng Escort Bureau..."
The previous section is extremely brief. It was not until after Lai Yunzhao joined the Escort Bureau that he did a few major things that shocked Yunzhao and recorded them in detail. The speed of the breakout is also shown.
“He is still a very talented vicious man.”
Despite saying this, Su Xing’s eyes did not waver. The most ferocious, evil and heretical geniuses he had hunted down were no longer known to the world. Several times, they were all imprisoned by his own hands in the end, and a foreign trainer was nothing.
He asked again:
"Does this Longteng Escort Agency have a grudge against County Lieutenant Yu? Let their chief escort come to the county government office. I have something to ask."
The county magistrate coughed. , whispered:
"The Longteng Escort Bureau is gone. Some time ago, there was a fight between the masters, which involved the Longteng Escort Bureau..."
After hearing this, Su Xing raised his eyebrows lightly, a little surprised. .
Are things still coming together?
He tracked Deng Wan from Yanzhou to Yunzhou that day, and passed by Yunzhao a few steps later. He happened to see Yunzhao in chaos, with local warriors suffering heavy casualties, but tracking Deng Wan was important and he did not go into details;< br>
Until he saw Deng Wan’s body and learned that it was related to the Mu family, he transferred directly to Beidu Mountain to explore the Mu family deep in the mountains. After a lot of effort to find the Mu family’s ancestral land, he found that It’s a dead place!
The Mu family was located in an unknown place in the mountains of Beidu. The news of its destruction was only discovered by Deng Wan and his caravan. However, Deng Wan discovered the news about the Black Sky Book and immediately silenced all the caravan members present.
The Mu family has been exterminated for so long. Apart from the few parties involved in the chase, Su Xing was the first outsider to find out. Naturally, he was shocked.
He explored the Mu family's ancestral land for a long time, and although he saw a lot of tricks, he lost the clue of the Mu family's grandmaster and had to go back and sort out his thoughts.
Su Xing had a reason to track down Deng Wan, and there were also things on him that needed to be recovered; the Mu family line was broken, and he wanted to sort out the other person who killed Deng Wan at that time, and the relationship with Deng Wan. Another grandmaster of Wan Tongxing.
Remembering that two masters had caused chaos in Yunzhao at that time, he wanted to come to investigate, but he happened to receive a report that someone had killed the county captain in the street, so he killed two birds with one stone and came along the way.
It turned out that this murderer was a member of the escort agency who was involved in the previous fight?
Su Xing's brows moved slightly, which was a coincidence.
This may just be a pure coincidence. After all, the person who killed the county captain must be a local powerful person, and it is normal for a local powerful person to collide with a passing grandmaster and be implicated in the extermination of his family.
But for Su Xing, any coincidence is worth thinking about.
He raised his head slightly for a moment, then suddenly sat upright, took out the file and took another look:
"Xie Yuan, a native of Xiaoshi Village, rarely makes a living as a woodcutter..."< br>
The woodcutter......
Su Xing's eyes flashed and he thought of the ax wound on Deng Wan's waist.
But this is just a fourth martial artist.
Su Xing shook his head again, but he was obviously interested.
He thought for a while and asked about the scene on the day the Longteng Escort Bureau was destroyed.
A yamen officer answered one by one. Su Xing closed his eyes and listened. When he heard that the escort team came out in full force, four teams walking together, his eyes suddenly brightened.
His mind was spinning, and an idea flashed in his mind, and he suddenly understood:
“That’s it!
“The Longteng Escort Agency acted like this to deceive others. Who are you acting for? At that time, I could only show it to Deng Wan and another grandmaster outside the city! And these two people were following the Grandmaster of the Mu family.
“It means that the grandmaster of the Mu family was hiding in the escort agency at that time, and it was she who drove the escort agency to do this.
“The escort agency was destroyed, and the master of the Mu family took the opportunity to escape, and met another person in the mountains They joined forces to kill Deng Wan and completely escaped. This other person is most likely someone from the escort agency... Xie Yuan!
"Then the two escaped, and Xie Yuan sneaked back to Yunzhao and killed his enemy Yu Chunsheng! This vendetta was just a follow-up to when Deng Wan and the others passed by. It seems that I came to the right place."
I have to say, Su Xing was worthy of the name of the God's Catcher. In a short period of time, he was able to deduce the whole story to a close degree. It was not easy.
After all, in his sight, he only followed Deng Wan here because of the Yanzhou horse bandit case. He didn’t know anything about Deng Wan’s purpose, the whole story of his escape, or the other grandmaster. He didn’t even know about the other grandmaster now. identity.
Su Xing immediately asked about the grudge between Yu Chunsheng and the escort agency. Among the government officials at this time were those who had been sent by Yu Chunsheng to monitor the escort agency and report news to him in the north of the city. After asking, Su Xing became more certain about his speculation.
There is just one thing that is strange... Judging from the aura of Yu Chunsheng's death and Xie Yuan's identity file, Xie Yuan is indeed a fourth-level practitioner. Although he is indeed more powerful than the average fourth-level practitioner, he is not enough in any case. To the point of seriously injuring the Grandmaster.
Su Xing pondered for a long time, he still had doubts about this matter, and it was Xie Yuan.
However, the evidence for the murder of the county captain is conclusive, and Xie Yuan should have been arrested; and as long as Xie Yuan is found, the things on Deng Wan or the whereabouts of the Mu family master should be clear.
He asked the county magistrate:
"Is there a sketch of the criminal?"
The county magistrate sent people to look for him, and said with some shame:
< br>
"These are originally managed by the county captain. They are in an orderly manner and no one else can interfere. As soon as he leaves, there will be a lot of things going on in the county government, so you have to move more slowly."
Su Xing didn't take it seriously and just stood up. He said:
"It's okay. I'd like to trouble the county magistrate to sort out the files first, and I'll go out for a while."
He stood up immediately without waiting for the county magistrate's answer, and disappeared in a flash.
Xiaoshi Village.
Wang Lei and Li Lan sat at the table, looking at each other silently around the stack of banknotes. "One, two, three... so many hundred taels of silver notes are enough to give Hu baby a private school, buy a house in the city, and get Hu baby a wife!"
< br>Li Lan said at a loss.
Wang Lei smashed his mouth:
"Yuanzi is promising. It's such a big ticket. How can we use it?"
Li Lan rolled her eyes at her man:
"Yuanzi won't say anything anymore? This is already the receipt he exchanged! When the time comes, he will move to the county town and be taken care of by his acquaintances from the escort agency, so there will be no big problem!"< br>
"If we really enter the city, what will I do with these two acres of land?"
Wang Lei hesitated.
Li Lan rolled her eyes to the sky:
"If you farm these two acres of land for a lifetime, will you be able to grow a hundred taels? After settling in the city, you can have some food in stock and just find some work. Isn't it better than farming? And Huwa, it's better to be in the city than in the village. . ”
She scolded the man who knew how to farm, and then took the banknote, some He worriedly said:
“Yuanzi took out so much money at once, and I don’t know if he can still use it.”
“Yuanzi has great potential, but he just doesn’t know how far away he is. How long will it take? It looks like he has committed a crime. This money..."
Wang Lei frowned.
Li Lan suddenly raised his thick eyebrows:
"Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about..."
While she was speaking, her ears suddenly pricked up, she was quiet for a moment, and then suddenly walked out of the door.
As soon as she went out, she saw a man who looked like a police officer standing at the door of Xie Yuan's house next door, but he was more imposing than she had ever seen before.
Li Lan’s heart skipped a beat and she asked cautiously:
"This official, who are you looking for?"
"Sister, is this Xie Yuan's home? Are you his neighbors?"
Su Xing said quietly.
In fact, with his ears, he had heard all the conversation in the room just now.
“Yes, yes...he hasn’t been back for a long time!”
Li Lan gritted his teeth and said.
Su Xing had no expression on his face. He just walked around Xie Yuan's small courtyard and carefully looked at the firewood that had not been taken away after chopping. His eyes narrowed slightly. Then he walked straight into Li Lan's house. With a wave of his hand, he took the banknotes that Wang Lei had put away hastily into his hands and looked at them carefully.
Wang Lei was stunned when he saw this magic-like scene.
Su Xing looked at it for a while and found that these banknotes had been specially exchanged by Xie Yuan, and were not the ones Deng Wan had on him.
But from the bank and the date, Su Xing still had a clear idea.
"Is this really Xie Yuan? Why can he hurt Deng Wan? Even the top-level skills passed down from the direct descendants of the great masters may not have the ultimate move that can hurt the master."
Su Xing frowned slightly. Wrinkled, he glanced at the nervous Wang Lei and Li Lan, and said lightly:
"He just came back in the morning, right?"
"No...no!"
< br>The two looked at his official uniform and gritted their teeth.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a long time, he can't escape."
Su Xing didn't need their confirmation, turned around, and disappeared from the house.
The couple looked at this scene that was beyond their comprehension and were stunned for a moment. Li Lan patted her apron and chased to the door, but no one could be seen anywhere.
“Oh no, he’s chasing Yuanzi!”
Wang Lei looked at the banknotes falling on the table and muttered:
"What did Yuanzi do? Did he steal so much stolen money and let such a powerful catcher chase him?"
"Didn't anyone take the stolen money without looking at anyone? It must be, There must be a misunderstanding! "
Li Lan gritted his teeth and looked at each other, both of them extremely worried.
Su Xing walked around Xiaoshi Village and showed up at the entrance of the village, with surprise on his face.
Why did this breath stop here...
He expanded the area and walked ten miles from the entrance of the village to the southeast and northwest. With his body skills, it didn't take long.
However, after completing this round, Su Xing still didn't notice it, and his expression suddenly became solemn.
"This is Xie Yuan! Such a tracking method is just like Lin Zhong's... Is the Mu family's grandmaster also following him?"
Su Xing can't believe it no matter what, this General ability belongs to Xie Yuan.
But if the Grandmaster of the Mu family helped, it means that it was Xie Yuan who hurt Deng Wan, there is no doubt about it!
Su Xing's face turned solemn. He was finally convinced and instantly raised Xie Yuan's evaluation by countless levels.
This is not a murderer of officials with a fair talent, but a mysterious genius who can seriously injure the master with unknown methods using external training!
He took a step and quickly returned to Yunzhao, ready to check the detailed information compiled by the county magistrate.
Not long after entering the city gate, Su Xing was rushing to the county office when he suddenly noticed someone looking at him on the roadside.
He turned around and glanced, only to see the man sitting at the table, holding a bowl of noodles. He glanced at himself several times, seemingly surprised, then withdrew his gaze and immersed himself in eating the noodles.
It was not surprising to be stared at, but the noodle eater was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament. He was probably the son of a wealthy family in the city, and he also liked small roadside noodle shops.
Su Xing's thought flashed across his mind and he didn't care. He quickly rushed back to the county office and immediately asked the county magistrate to bring over the detailed files he had compiled.
This time, the file contains a lot of information about Xie Yuan, including what Yu Chunsheng checked himself, and what he thought was collected from the original investigation by the escort agency, including Xie Yuan's growth in Xiaoshi Village, interpersonal relationships, and the history of learning martial arts in Panlong Town. , as well as the whole process of entering the escort agency and a series of things that happened thereafter, are all recorded.
After Su Xing finished reading in detail, he had a deeper understanding of Xie Yuan. Then he took out the shadow drawing and prepared to remember this person's appearance in his heart.
As soon as he took out the portrait, his eyes suddenly condensed:
"This!"
The man in the portrait is extremely handsome and heroic. He is the man he just passed by in the noodle shop.
