He himself is quite skilled. He can easily defeat three or five strong men. This person who can only stay at the inn can stop him with one hand. What does this mean?
It shows that he may have underestimated the little girl's ability.
It can be said that County Magistrate Cao had an acute illness and sought medical treatment indiscriminately.
Although a series of murders occurred in Xiangzhou County, he found that he was unable to stop it and reported it to the court.
But the memorial had to be handed over at different levels. The town handed it over to the county, the county handed it over to the main city, and the main city handed it over to the General Affairs Department in the middle of the capital. The General Affairs Department then determined the urgency and then submitted it to the emperor.
After such a pass, ten days and a half are indispensable.
People in Xiangzhou County can't stand ten days and a half.
Qi Baoer was not in the mood to talk nonsense with him at the moment, and asked directly: "Have you never seen the true face of the murderer?"
When asked this question, County Magistrate Cao was stunned for a moment and was very confused. "The government officials in the murderer's office have encountered him several times, but the opponent's Qinggong was so good that he failed to catch up every time."
Qi Kang'an: "So, you have never seen the headless monster last night before? The previous murderers were always humans?"
In addition to the headless monster, is there another person, or even several people, who is the murderer?
Magistrate Cao did not hide his request from others. This was exactly what he was puzzled about: "Yes, they have always been human, and we still have portraits."
He waved to a government servant next to him and said, "Give Mr. Qi and Miss Qi the portrait of the murderer."
"yes."
The yamen servant took out the portrait folded into a square from his arms, opened it and handed it to Qi Kang'an.
When the father and daughter took a look at the people in the portrait, they all said: "...???"
What the hell is this?
A back figure, a back figure that looks like anyone when you look at it.
Qi Kang'an: "This... murderer???"
Tell me who can find the murderer?
Magistrate Cao and the yamen servant both looked embarrassed. Magistrate Cao said: "Every time the yamen servant failed to meet him head-on."
Therefore, I can only draw a picture of the man running away from his back.
Father and daughter: "..."
Really, I'm quite speechless.
Qi Baoer: "In other words, you have never seen the fact that the murderer committed the crime? There is no guarantee that the murderer must be a human?"
"This can be guaranteed. Only the You family, who was the first family to have the accident, is not clear about it. Everyone who had the accident later had family members who heard the noise. Although the murderer could not be seen clearly, it is certain that the murderer must be a human being."
Rather than a scary thing like a headless monster.
The shopkeeper can also confirm this. He was wrapped in a quilt and still shivering while staggering over.
"The waiter in our inn was in trouble. He was also a human being, but we didn't even see his face clearly. He tried to break in through the window, but when he raised the window, he alerted the guards. The guards yelled and ran away."
The waiters usually lived in the duty room in the backyard, where it was relatively dark at night, and the man fled quickly after being drunk, so the guards only saw a dark figure leaving over the wall, but also did not see the murderer's face.
Father and daughter again: "..."
All in all, all in all, no one has seen the murderer's face.
Yes, otherwise wanted notices would have been posted all over the city.
Qi Kang'an scratched his chin and was puzzled, "Does this mean that the headless monster appeared for the first time last night, and then went straight to the inn?"
Are they too unlucky, or did Magistrate Cao and his team make a mistake in their previous investigation?
Qi Kang'an turned to his daughter and asked, "Bao, did you catch the headless monster after chasing it out last night?"
Qi Bao'er shook his head: "No, I found the headless zombie running towards the south of the city. By the time I chased him, the figure of the headless zombie had disappeared."
As for the discovery of the murder of the family and the subsequent appearance of Xie Bian, she naturally would not talk about it here, as it would cause unnecessary trouble.
However, County Magistrate Cao was so shocked by every word in her words that his eyes widened. His already thin face looked slightly bulging.
"Headless zombie? Can Miss Qi be sure it's a zombie?"
Listening to this, it seems that this person knows a little bit about Xuanmen.
The shopkeeper looked confused, "What's wrong?"
Magistrate Cao wiped his face and said with a hint of despair, "You will live with resentment, but you will not rot even if you are buried for a long time, and you will become dead even if you live."
These three words sound weird no matter how they sound.
The shopkeeper's originally pale face turned pale to the naked eye, "Then, what's the freeze? Isn't it scary?"
When asked this question, he himself felt that he was sick.
Last night, he saw with his own eyes that headless and stiff appearance.
He was truly invincible with weapons and extremely powerful. Even his inner strength seemed to have no effect on him. He took a huge blow and took a step or two back.
But that guy wasn't afraid of pain, and he probably didn't have any internal injuries. He immediately fought back after being hit. On the contrary, the people on their side basically lost the ability to fight back once they were hit.
If Miss Qi hadn't come quickly, not only him, but also the whole room of people who came to save him would have been killed in the hands of Headless Zombie last night.
"What, what should I do?" This guy can't handle it!
Magistrate Cao also looked desperate, but only for a moment. He immediately looked at Qi Bao'er.
"Miss Qi, you fought with the Headless Zombie for a long time last night, but did you notice its weakness?"
When he asked this question, Qi Baoer wanted to quarrel with him.
Xiu Xiu Xiu was stabbed several times in the chest.
However, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise the entire Xiangzhou County will be in danger, and it will even spread outwards with Dezhou County as the base, and the death zone will become larger and larger.
Seriously, it may affect the entire Qilin Kingdom.
Qi Baoer gritted his teeth and said, "I can only come out at night if I am so stiff. I will call some helpers at night."
Anyway, it was originally caused by the underworld. Isn’t it natural for her to recruit people from the underworld to solve it?
Magistrate Cao didn't know the origin of the helper Qi Bao'er called... When he heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately bowed deeply to express his thanks.
"On behalf of the people of Xiangzhou County, I would like to thank Miss Qi for your great kindness."
Qi Baoer feels that the greatest success of the Qilin Kingdom is in the selection of officials. At least the officials she has met so far have their own thoughts, but most of them care about the people.
Qi Baoer thought for a moment, then took out his county master's token and showed it in front of Magistrate Cao, "This is what I should do."
Magistrate Cao: “!!!”
With a 'pop' sound, he fell to his knees and said, "I'm going to see the Lord of Anle County, Cao Wenyuan."
Immediately afterwards, there was another popping sound, and no one was standing around except Qi Kangan.
"See the Lord of Anle County."
Not only officials know about the Lord of Anle County, but the people have also heard about him for a long time.
The emperor personally granted him a title, granted him peace and happiness, and received his holy favor. Entering and exiting the imperial study was like entering a deserted place.
There are several versions of these among the people, and some scholars wrote vivid stories that were told in teahouses.
However, knowing is knowing, but no one knows that the Lord of Anle County has such abilities at such a young age.
I have always only known that she received divine grace.
Although I don’t know why she is liked by the emperor, the fact that the emperor likes her is enough to prove that she is already very powerful.
As for the rest, the common people don't care about that. They just listen and talk for fun.
After all, it was too far away from me.
