Lu Bai also stretched himself and kicked Lao Gou awake.
"The Liu family is so lazy that no one comes out even when the sun comes out."
Lao Mu woke up early.
“I’m so worried in the middle of the night that I’ll definitely have to sleep in.”
Lao Gou yawned.
After a while, the chief catcher also came.
He was greeting all the arresters, and after giving Lu Bai a strange look, he frowned when he saw that the Liu family hadn't come out yet.
"Quick, kick the door open!"
The chief catcher had a serious look on his face.
Lu Bai and others took action together.
boom!
The door opened.
Before the dust settled, everyone rushed in.
ah!
Damn it!
The detectives exclaimed.
The servants and clan members left behind were all dead. Their hands and feet had signs of being restrained, and their hearts were dug out.
The death method of the previous victims was exactly the same.
"Liu Xiaolian! Hurry!"
The chief catcher was shocked.
Several catchers ran into the hall together.
There were many corpses scattered in the hall, all of them were Liu Xiaolian's family members and clan members.
They died the same way.
He will not die with his eyes closed, and his death will be extremely miserable.
Several head catchers stopped.
They were deeply afraid that if they moved the body, they would get dirty things on it.
Lu Bai accepted the money yesterday, and seeing how they were taking people's money to help people out of trouble, he gritted his teeth and boldly entered the pile of corpses.
Liu Xiaolian was not found among the corpses, nor was his son.
Behind the pile of corpses, there is a statue of a god.
The deity looks like the Immortal Wind Dao Bone, carrying the Sanba Sword behind his back, touching his beard with his hand, and looking ahead.
Iron Sword Fairy!
Lu Bai had heard the legend of this immortal.
Legend has it that this god moved his mortal heart and was punished to heaven, where he experienced the sufferings of reincarnation in the mortal world for several lifetimes.
Later, he was enlightened by immortals, and during the reign of the late emperor, he was ranked among the immortals.
Lu Bai withdrew his gaze and was about to go out when he caught a glimpse of red and black filth behind the statue of the Sword Immortal.
Very secretive.
Most people can't see it.
He came closer and touched it with his hand.
Slightly moist.
It doesn't take long to pour it on.
He smelled it again, it was not human blood...
"What are you doing?"
The chief catcher was standing beside him at some point.
Just as Lu Bai was about to say something, the chief catcher urged him again, "Hurry and find Xiaolian's body."
"good."
Lu Bai agreed.
They finally found Liu Xiaolian in the side hall.
His death was a bit special. His heart was still there and his eyes were protruding, just like a child who died of suffocation by water plants.
"Weird!"
Lu Bai frowned.
Liu Xiaolian is already in his sixties or seventies, why is he so dead?
According to past experience, when this evil spirit took action, children died of suffocation and adults died of having their hearts removed.
"What's weird about this? Maybe the ghost wants to change his killing method." Lao Mu said.
Lu Bai was noncommittal.
Liu Xiaolian's wrists and ankles showed signs of being restrained when the adult died.
What's the explanation for this?
The ghost killed half of the people using the adult's killing method, then suddenly stopped and changed to another killing method?
Lu Bai asked someone to take a branch. He opened the deceased's mouth and picked out the water plants from the base of the tongue.
Dried aquatic plants.
Not the wet aquatic plants in the first two cases.
There were shreds of rice paper between his lips and teeth. He had suffocated to death by putting wet paper over his mouth and nose.
This is murder!
Grandma is a bear!
Unexpectedly, Lu Bai was not the only one fishing in troubled waters last night, but someone also played with something bigger.
who is it?
When Liu was having an affair, who was he talking about?
"Boss, Liu Xiaolian died..."
Lu Bai raised his head.
"You're going to be in trouble, I know."
The chief catcher interrupted Lu Bai.
"No, I mean..."
The catcher frowned and sighed, "I know that Xiaolian was killed by the water ghost. This case is no longer your responsibility. Leave it to me. You don't have to deal with it in the future. You can concentrate on Batman's case this morning.
, hang another one at the Yamen."
Everyone was stunned.
It's weird.
The chief catcher took the initiative to help Lu Bai take on such a difficult case.
Are the two of them doing something shady?
Their eyes wandered over the two of them, paying special attention to Lu Bai's butt.
Lu Bai ignored them.
Under the gaze of the chief catcher, he pretended to be surprised: "Another one, who?!"
"Liu Xiaolian's son, Liu Mang!" the chief catcher said with an expressionless face.
Oops!
The catchers made a sound of surprise.
Liu Mang, who was supposed to die here, was actually hanged by Batman at the yamen gate.
This is too incredible.
Tooth extraction from ghost mouth?
hiss!
Is this Batman really a bat monster?
The arrests were thankful that both cases were out of their hands.
"My lord, I will help you intercede. Don't get yourself involved in Batman's case."
The chief catcher added another sentence.
The catchers became more and more suspicious that they had some shady deal.
Lu Bai vaguely understood.
"Thank you, boss."
He thanked the chief catcher with a smile and led the people out of Sword Immortal Temple.
Before leaving the house, Lu Bai looked back and saw that the chief was looking at him in the temple, which was as gloomy as the temple.
The first catcher stood behind the chief catcher.
"What do you think of him?" The chief catcher looked at Lu Bai's back.
The catcher blurted out, "Slippery"
The boss smiled and said, "Only those who are naughty are useful."
"Boss, what are you thinking about?"
When they were approaching the Yamen, Lao Gou saw that Lu Bai had been deep in thought and asked curiously.
Lu Bai shook his head, "No, it's nothing."
He asked Lao Gou, "How many sons does Liu Xiaolian have?"
"one!"
"Oh, no."
Lao Gou corrected himself, "There is another offering to the god."
Lu Bai suddenly realized.
uncle!
The water is so deep!
Xiaolian was killed first.
Whether his son was killed by Batman or a ghost is no longer important to the county magistrate.
The levator boys and others put less pressure on the government, and they probably thought it was a monster.
For a time, Taoist priests and monks became popular among the people.
Lu Bai relaxed.
He originally planned to continue investigating the Liaojiaxiang fire case, but before questioning a few people, he was caught by Bai Lang and reprimanded.
"It's a good 30% profit, but you gave me an empty shell!"
The white wolf was furious.
This is the complaint filed by Niu Da and Niu Er.
After both of them lost nothing, they originally wanted to use the 30% as a face-saving measure to continue gambling.
The men in the town were afraid of Lu Bai, but not afraid of them, so they kicked them out.
The two men were very angry. When they saw the empty shell, they turned around and complained to the white wolf.
Lu Bai asked Bai Lang to calm down.
"Gang leader, if you give me three days, I can find a way to make this empty business prosper."
Bai Lang glanced at him sideways, obviously not believing it, "Seriously?"
"really!"
Bai Lang leaned forward and said, "Okay, if you can't do it, don't blame me for helping you."
Lu Bai paused.
Is this a gang rule?
Why has this old man been keeping an eye on him these past few days and making things difficult for him at every turn?
Forget it, let’s talk about it later.
The business of the gambling house is also related to his business, this is the most important thing.
Lu Bai nodded.
"Okay, but there is one thing. I have full authority to handle the gambling house."
White Wolf agreed.
As long as Lu Bai is busy and doesn't make him uncomfortable, it will be fine.
Lu Bai led Niu Da and Niu Er out again.
White Wolf is the gang leader.
People who walk in the world are very particular about the word "righteousness". Even if Lu Bai's skills are higher than Bai Lang's, he can't do anything to him.
Besides, his family is still on the territory of the White Wolf Gang.
But for Niu Da and Niu Er, don't blame him for being rude.
Lu Bai turned into an alley.
Crackling!
Half an hour later, Lu Bai came out of the alley and shook off the dust from his body.
Niu Da and Niu Er followed Lu Bai.
His face is enlarged, his eyes are swollen, and his mouth has become a sausage mouth.
