Volume 3: The Case of Hundred Ghosts at Night Chapter 84: Ghost City
"Of course!" Duan Ming said swornly: "So brother, don't worry, we will escort you in front of you for as long as four or five days, or as little as two or three days, and let me do whatever you want!"
"Ah? Thank you very much!" Tuoba Yankang said.
"Then let's go, goodbye." Duan Ming hugged Tuoba Yankang and said, "You must take care of yourself!"
"Ah, okay, brother!" Tuoba Yankang nodded.
"Let's go!" Then Duan Ming waved his hand and left with Xing Qianqiu. At the same time, Sun Yamen glanced at Tuoba Yankang and hurriedly asked people to take Dugu Yun's body away.
"Um, what happened just now?" After walking out of the Yingbin Building, Xing Qianqiu looked at Duan Ming in confusion.
Duan Ming's words just now made him unable to come back to his senses.
"I just saw that female ghost." Duan Ming did not answer Xing Qianqiu's question, but said to himself.
"What!" Xing Qianqiu frowned and turned to look at the Yingbin Building. The dim sunlight was shining on the Yingbin Building, which made the Yingbin Building a little more mysterious.
"You go to Chunyu Tower first. I'll go back and check Dugu Yun's body. Maybe I will find more." Duan Ming said.
"Okay." Xing Qianqiu nodded.
When he returned to the Mirror Department, Xu Shizhong was already waiting at the gate.
"Mr. Duan, you are finally back." Xu Shizhong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Duan Ming.
He didn't expect that he just went out for a while in the morning, and so many things happened today.
Thinking about it now, Xu Shizhong felt chills running down his spine. If Duan Ming had something bad going on during this day, what would he do?
"How is your investigation going?" Duan Ming looked at Xu Shizhong and asked in a deep voice.
During the day, since Xing Qianqiu had been accompanying Duan Ming, Xu Shizhong was asked to investigate the matter about Song Yi.
"Song Yi's real name is Song Rengui, and he was once the commander of the Imperial City Division in Kyoto." Xu Shizhong said.
"Imperial City Secretary?" Duan Ming frowned.
You must know that the Imperial City Department is the portal of the emperor. Although the official position of the commander of the Imperial City Department is not high, due to his special status, even the first-rank ministers are not willing to offend easily. It can be said that they have a low position.
And weight.
And such people are often the emperor's cronies, how could they be demoted here?
"Yes, according to the news in the capital, he was demoted here because he made a mistake. But I don't know what mistake he made." Xu Shizhong sighed.
"Oh? Is there anything in Kyoto that your Mirror Division doesn't know about?" Duan Ming looked at Xu Shizhong in confusion.
After all, the Spiegel Division is a criminal investigation agency. Even if it is far inferior to the historical secret service departments such as the East Factory and the West Factory, it should have strong intelligence collection capabilities. How could the commander of the Imperial City Division be demoted?
The reason is that you don’t even know about such a big thing?
"There is no way, Huangfu ordered them to investigate, and Huangfu issued an order not to allow external reports." Xu Shizhong sighed.
"Commander Huangfu? Commander of the Mirror Division, Huangfu Haoyue?" Duan Ming nodded: "Then we can only wait for Lao Xing to come back and let him ask."
"Mr. Duan, to be honest, even if you ask the criminal commander to ask, it will be in vain." Xu Shizhong sighed.
"What? Huangfu Haoyue and Xing Qianqiu are not on good terms?" Duan Ming asked doubtfully.
"It's not a disagreement, but Commander Huangfu and the Changsheng Sect are very close." Xu Shizhong said solemnly: "Commander Huangfu once asked Commander Xing not to provoke the Changsheng Sect anymore, but Commander Xing refused, so the two...
…”
"Have the hands of the Immortality Cult reached out to the Mirror Department?" Duan Ming understood and nodded: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. You can follow me to check Dugu Yun's body first, and then we can
Go visit this Song Yi."
"Okay." Xu Shizhong's face suddenly lit up and he said with a smile.
It has to be said that Sun Yamen and the others were very fast. Before Duan Ming came back, they had already delivered Dugu Yun's body.
Duan Ming and Xu Shizhong walked into the morgue, and Dugu Yun's body was placed next to Xu Hansan's body.
"The man with the corpse was in his mid-forties, with a burly build. His head was broken from the seventh cervical vertebra, and the fracture was flat and smooth." Duan Ming said, "There are no spots on the back of the corpse. It should be due to transportation."
"There are calluses on the fingertips and metacarpophalangeal joints of the right hand. He should be able to write about martial arts."
Speaking of this, Duan Ming became even more confused.
If Dugu Yun knew martial arts, how could he die so easily? Not even the slightest resistance? Only a white silk thread left between his fingers?
Unless Dugu Yun lost the ability to resist at that time, or Dugu Yun was already dead at that time!
After carefully examining Dugu Yun's body for a long time, no other injuries were found on Dugu Yun's body.
"Or, the reason for everything is the head?" Duan Ming narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is this the reason why the murderer took Dugu Yun's head away?"
"Let's go!" At this point, Duan Ming stood up suddenly and said to Xu Shizhong.
"What to do?" Xu Shizhong was startled by Duan Ming's performance and looked at Duan Ming doubtfully.
"Go to the ghost market!" Duan Ming said in a deep voice.
Soon, Xu Shizhong and Duan Ming came to the alley of Nancheng again.
After dark, this alley looks even more weird.
However, Duan Ming and Xu Shizhong didn't care about this problem and walked in without hesitation.
The reason why he didn't take Sun Erniu with him was because Xing Qianqiu was not around. Duan Ming was worried about what kind of troubles would happen if he took Sun Erniu directly. It would be bad if Sun Erniu escaped.
Duan Ming and Xu Shizhong wore cloaks, covering their faces, and walked leisurely in the alley.
Suddenly, the doors and windows in the alley slowly opened, revealing figures one after another.
"Be careful." Xu Shizhong was startled and hurriedly protected Duan Ming behind him.
"It's okay." Duan Ming said calmly, and then continued walking forward as if he didn't see both sides.
Xu Shizhong followed Duan Ming in surprise, his expression full of caution.
As they walked, Duan Ming and Xu Shizhong suddenly saw two people standing in the middle of the alley. One of them was wearing black clothes, and the other was wearing white clothes.
"Who is coming?" Suddenly, a sharp voice rang out, and the man in white clothes suddenly turned around, revealing his extremely ferocious-looking face.
"Nancheng, lame old six!" Duan Ming was not startled by the man in white clothes, but said calmly.
"Ahead of the underworld, everyone, avoid, avoid, avoid!" The man in black clothes turned around, wearing a black mask on his face.
"I want to enter the ghost market!" Duan Ming said solemnly.
"The underworld ahead..." the man in black clothes said again.
"Here!" Duan Ming raised his hand, and a small money bag flew out and landed on the ground: "I have some things to buy and I want to go to the ghost market."
"Please!" Seeing the money bag, two figures, one black and one white, turned sideways and waved their hands at the same time: "The ghost market is not the earth, so please don't bring the grudges and rules of the earth here."
"I know." Duan Ming walked straight between the two of them... This chapter has been completed!
