When Li Changan squeezed into the yard, the government officials handling the case were driving out the neighbors who were agitated.
One in and one out.
Li Changan is like a fish swimming upstream.
After exhausting the strength of the boss, he passed the "dragon gate" and jumped into the courtyard.
"Brother Bo, are you here?"
He straightened out the crooked sword belt and asked the police officers who were busy in the courtyard.
In the workshop, Bo Ziyu, who had been promoted to team leader, was directing the survey site. After hearing the words, he quickly came out to say hello. But when he looked around, he saw only Taoist priest Li Changan.
"Where is Daoist Feng?"
Several days have passed since the night of Niba.
Feng Chong out of justice, Bo Ziyu out of public anger, and Li Changan out of mission completion, tacitly formed an alliance to deal with the demon epidemic and uncover the culprit behind the scenes.
He was also recommended by Master Qingping and received more attention from the government.
So I spent the past few days.
Bo Ziyu is responsible for coordinating the government, organizing manpower, and detecting information, while Feng Chong and Li Changan often work together to catch monsters. Bo Ziyu asked this question now that he saw Li Changan alone.
"Fellow Daoist Feng is developing an antidote in the temple, but he can't get away. I'm here this time..."
He came here because he got news from an old believer in Shuiyueguan, saying that the owner of a nearby wine shop suddenly had a great increase in appetite, which was suspected to be a sign of demon possession.
But Li Changan came over to check carefully, and found that the boss was stingy and deducted the workers' food. He was teased by the workers a few times. Somehow, he was believed to be true and reported it to Shuiyue Guan in a serious manner.
Anyway, in the past few days, there have been quite a few rumors like this that are either false or false.
The Taoist pounced several times, but although he was still calm, he was too lazy to say anything at the moment.
"What's going on here?"
"It's just a murder case, but it's quite strange. I'm just trying to find you, Taoist Priest."
With that said, Bo Ziyu called Li Changan into the room.
As soon as you enter the door.
He then gave me a questioning look.
Li Changan put out the Chonglong Jade Talisman in his hand and shook his head.
He didn't smell any evil spirit here.
But there must be no monsters?
This is not necessarily the case.
In ordinary days, Taoist priests mostly rely on their noses to identify monsters. After all, searching for scent is the most common, ancient, and useful way of hunting in nature. Monsters can often change their shapes, but it is often difficult to change their own scent.
But since entering Xiaoshui, the Chonglong Jade that used to be invincible has been frequently deflated. It seems that the monsters lurking in Xiaoshui City can block their own scent.
If you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be successful.
Li Changan was not stubborn and gradually changed his behavior.
As the cheap master often says: Don't rely on magic, look more and think more.
Therefore, Li Changan is not in a hurry to make a conclusion right now.
While listening to Bo Ziyu describe the case, he looked around the room carefully.
The workshop was not very spacious, so it was a bit crowded with a few agents crammed in. However, even though they could not move around, the agents intentionally or unintentionally avoided a table in the middle.
There was a large dumpling on the table, with several strips of brown braised pork on it, a human head with a blurry face and a pair of paws, a few shaved bones and some internal organs.
Li Changan has seen a lot of cannibalism.
But Leng Buding still felt sad in his heart when he saw such a tragic scene in this prosperous and peaceful Xiaoshui. He couldn't help but avoid looking away and look elsewhere.
Next to him, Zhang Tong was responding to the detective's inquiries with a face full of impatience, while Zhang Shaonan was leaning against the wall and sneering; further in the corner, there was a man curled up, looking extremely embarrassed.
Not to mention his disheveled hair, a few locks of hair had also been plucked out. His clothes were in tatters, his whole body was blue and red, and there was no good skin. There was also some mud, rotten vegetable leaves, and rotten eggs on his body. The Taoist priest's nose moved and he could even smell it.
I can smell some excrement.
"he is?"
"Gu Laosan, the owner of this cooked meat shop, is the suspect."
"Why do you look like this?"
"Who made his business so good?"
But Zhang Tong suddenly interrupted.
His face was a bit ugly, and as he spoke, he accumulated a mouthful of phlegm and spit it on the face of Gu Lao San next to him. Gu Lao San only rolled his eyes, raised his hand to wipe it away without saying a word, and then curled up again, as if
An old turtle in a muddy pond.
Business is too good?
Li Changan thought for a while and finally understood why the people who were watching just now were so angry.
Stop talking and get down to business.
The Taoist asked again.
"Who is the deceased?"
"Who else could it be?"
It was Zhang Tong who still took the lead.
"She's the wife of Gu Laosan."
"How to be sure?"
He suddenly grinned, a smile that "every man understands" appeared in his eyebrows.
"Because I recognize that lump of breast meat. It's the size of a bowl of ocean and there's a mole on it."
Li Changan glanced at the body parts on the dustpan. It was indeed what he said, but...
"How do you know about this woman's body?"
Bo Ziyu was used to looking down on these scoundrels, and he was not polite when he scolded them. But Zhang Tong was also a man used to running rampant, so he stopped talking and just crossed his arms and smiled strangely.
Outside the yard, a few unscrupulous men were making a fuss: "Not only does Boss Zhang know about it, we all know about it."
Later.
He screamed again and said something. He could hold it in his hand, it was smooth and soft, and there were two dots of black on the white jade paste...
When these obscene words came out, the men outside burst into laughter, and the women began to curse. There was a lot of chatter and chaos, as if there was not a dead person in the room, but a ridiculous farce.
The Taoist priest turned a deaf ear and only chanted scriptures softly to the corpse.
However, Bo Ziyu was impatient by the noise and yelled at the onlookers to shut up, and then called a government servant who lived nearby to ask carefully.
It turns out that the Gu family's stew-making skill is inherited from their ancestors. They rely on a pot of stew that has been passed down for several generations. Although they are not rich, they are still well-to-do. Unfortunately, when it was passed down to Gu Laosan's generation, he fell in love with a man named Gu Laosan.
"Xue Tuan'er's" great skill (harmony) not only ruined the family property, but also delayed getting a wife, and she was still alone at thirty years old. Later, Xue Tuan'er also grew older, and saw that Gu Laosan was so patronizing.
He was very diligent, so he left his nationality and became a good man and married him.
It's a pity that Xue Tuan'er, or Gu Tian's family, can control the flesh and blood business, but he can't control the red apricot in his heart. Although she is a woman, she has not changed her romantic nature and hangs around with the sluts all day long. And Gu Laosan also loves love
He insulted his wife, and when he saw that he couldn't restrain himself, he actually deceived himself and others. He covered his ears and pretended not to know. As time went by, he got the nickname "turtle egg".
"According to this, this layman Gu should get used to it if he endures it."
Li Changan finished chanting a passage of scripture.
"Why did you suddenly kill him again?"
The yamen servant smiled and said, "It's all thanks to you, the Taoist priest."
"I?"
"Isn't that so? Taoist Priest still remembers the night of the Bacchus Festival, when you chased the ghost-faced man and crashed many boats."
The Taoist priest nodded and waited for the next words.
"On one of the boats, Xue Tuan'er was having fun with a merchant. Unexpectedly, he was bumped into by the Taoist priest and thrown to the deck. Now, the whole city saw his mother-in-law's bare buttocks."
The yamen servant smiled and pointed at Gu Laosan, who was still speechless in the corner.
"Taoist Priest, you pulled his head out of the tortoise shell (Harmony) with your own hands, and then helped him put on his cuckold!"
"Well……"
Li Changan didn't know how to answer for a moment.
All I can say is that things in the world are so fucking amazing!
And this time.
The noise outside suddenly stopped.
Immediately afterwards.
A feinting female voice sounded in the yard.
"Hey, what kind of day is it today? It's so lively in front of the teaching slave's house."
Li Changan looked sideways and saw that the crowd that was originally crowded at the door had dispersed, and the men, women, old and young were all focusing on the courtyard gate with a look of "seeing a ghost".
There is a woman with exquisite make-up leaning against the door, with a graceful posture and a lazy attitude. Her skin is as white as snow, but her face can capture the regret of no longer being old, and the remaining charm lies mostly in her bones.
The wind current support.
She smiled lightly, a mole of tears dotting the corners of her eyes, making her eyes look more attractive.
Who is this?
Li Changan didn't wait to ask.
"Lady?!"
In the corner, Gu Laosan suddenly struggled to stand up, with anticipation and joy on his face.
"You're back again."
Oops.
It turned out to be "the resurrection of the dead".
People in the audience couldn't help but cast their eyes on Zhang Tong, who had just vowed to do so.
Zhang Tong snorted twice and rolled his eyes.
…………
A woman is no one else.
It was Zhang Tong who was said to have been killed by her husband Gu Laosan, whose body was cut into pieces and made into braised meat, and then sold to the neighboring Gu Tian family or Xuetuan'er.
When the woman saw Gu Laosan in a state of embarrassment, there was undisguised disgust on her face.
"You stupid thief, what did you do? You attracted a lot of bad guys."
Before Gu Laosan could explain anxiously, someone from the neighbor spoke first.
"Xue Tuan'er doesn't know yet, but your man killed someone!"
"kill?"
Xue Tuan'er covered her mouth and chuckled, but she didn't believe it.
"If a stupid thief has such courage, the slave family would dare to marry him?"
But in a blink of an eye, I saw that the expressions of the people around me didn't seem to be fake, and then I saw the serious faces of the government officials in the hospital, stammering questions to my husband.
"Did you really kill someone?"
Gu Laosan seemed to be particularly clumsy in front of his wife, and he hesitated: "No, no..."
"You are really murderous!"
Xue Tuan'er burst into tears and burst into tears.
"You evildoer! Why do you want to kill a good person? This is a serious crime of decapitation. How do you expect me to live in the future?! How can I see people?!"
In front of his wife's tears, Gu Laosan was flustered but speechless, but Zhang Tong still "stepped forward".
"Sister-in-law, don't panic."
He smiled meaningfully.
"Based on our friendship, if you don't have a place in the future, just come and find me."
"Don't make fun of me, Sir."
Xue Tuan'er's worries turned into joy for a moment, and she passed her over with soft eyes.
"The servants are people with husbands."
As soon as the words fell.
There were a few sneers from the crowd, and then they all started making noises, mixed with a few faint curses such as "vixen" and "shameless". In short, the atmosphere became cheerful for a moment.
And the only one who is unhappy is probably Gu Laosan.
His body was trembling slightly.
"Bitch."
he whispered.
"Bitch!"
He suddenly yelled, and at some point there was a sharp knife in his hand, and he rushed towards his wife.
Unfortunately, as soon as he took a step forward, Bo Ziyu, who saw something was wrong, grabbed him back, removed the blade, and threw it to the ground.
"Tie me up!"
After that, he yelled at the noisy crowd.
"The yamen is handling the case, how dare you make a noise!"
The noise stopped immediately, and he called to the Yamen servant again, pointing at Gu Tian.
"There was a murder in the workshop, and this woman is also a suspect. Lock her up with me!"
After everything was done, he rushed back to the house angrily. It was really jarring to have such a case mixed with the bad stories between men and women.
As soon as he came back, he saw Li Changan standing thoughtfully in front of the body parts covered with Shao Kei.
"What did the Taoist priest discover?"
The Taoist priest pondered for a long time, but when he opened his mouth, he was confused.
"How much cooked meat can this shop sell in a day?"
Although Bo Ziyu was puzzled, he still said nothing and summoned the previous government servant who lived nearby.
"This shop's business is good, but its sales have been low recently, only twenty or thirty kilograms a day."
Li Changan nodded.
"Excluding the bones and internal organs, an ordinary woman would have about the same weight."
"But I heard from the Zhang brothers that they came to trouble Gu Laosan because he offended the butcher shop and hadn't bought any meat from the butcher shop in seven or eight days."
"The meat sold today came from this victim."
Li Changan raised his head.
“Where did the meat sold in the past few days come from?”
After hearing this, Bo Ziyu felt chilled all over.
The two looked at each other and walked to the backyard together.
The backyard is also small and overgrown with weeds due to lack of maintenance.
But in one corner, it was completely bare, with obvious signs of renovation.
Bo Ziyu recruited subordinates.
"dig!"
Half an hour later.
A large number of scattered human bones mixed with mud color were piled in front of the two people.
According to a rough estimate, at least seven or eight skeletons can be pieced together.
