122. Sheriff Musu

Mu Su, who accidentally bumped into the lair of the murderer, did not know it. At this time, he was accompanied by the police officer and walked into a small shop with carved seals.

"How is business here?"

Mu Suda measured a row of seals and said casually.

"Sir, I can barely make ends meet." An old man in civilian clothes answered respectfully from behind.

Mu Su stopped in front of a large jade seal and looked at it in his hand: "I heard that your seal was well carved, so I came here to have a look."

Oshi looked sideways, I have been following you since you entered the county government office. How could I not know this?

I turned to the bottom of the seal and took a look. There were four Chinese characters in the correct order. The writing was strong, deep and simple, but I couldn't understand what was written.

The commoner old man said with a smile: "If the county magistrate knows about it, the little boy is really frightened."

"Have you read the book?" Mu Su put down his seal and looked back at him.

"I went to private school for several years when I was young. It's embarrassing to say that I didn't even pass the exam as a child student."

"Oh." Mu Su nodded and continued to look at the other seals.

The shop was small, and it seemed crowded with three people standing there, not to mention the two government officials who blocked the place like two door gods. There were also several bosses from surrounding shops gathered outside the shop, looking around to watch the excitement.

Seeing that Musu refused to leave, Isi couldn't help but ask: "Sir, when did you come here to do something?"

The commoner old man listened attentively.

"Why, can't I pay a visit to the people of this county?" Musu seemed to ask, with a tone of unquestionable tone. Oshizheng said no, Musu suddenly showed a very artificial look of surprise: "But I really remembered

One thing. Boss, can you carve a seal for me?"

"Of course. Should you use jade, or rhino horn and ivory..."

Mu Su said: "It's not my seal, it's an imitation."

The old man pondered slightly: "As long as I have the original drawing, I can carve it for you, sir."

"That's not true, but you must have heard of this seal."

"oh?"

"Jade Seal."

thump--

The old man fell to his knees and begged for mercy: "The villain is wrong, the villain is wrong!"

Oshi's heart trembled.

He didn't think that Mu Su really wanted to engrave the jade seal. What he thought was that this gentleman suspected that there was something wrong with the store?

"What are you afraid of? Get up and speak." Mu Su looked unhappy and asked the crying old man to stand up. "Then I will do the next best thing and carve an imperial envoy's seal for me, please?"

"This..." The old man hesitated.

If the magistrate had come up and asked for the imperial envoy's seal, I would never have dared to agree. Now that the magistrate had taken a step back, any further refusal would probably offend him. But... privately engraving the official seal is a serious crime of beheading.

Ashi also leaned into Musu's ear and reminded him in a low voice.

"The sky is high and the emperor is far away, I am the Dharma here!" Mu Su's dead fish eyes opened. His eyes were as wide as copper bells~ emitting lightning-quick intelligence~~ His ears were erect like antennas~ Hearing all suspicious sounds~~

Seeing that Mu Sulian dared to say such rebellious words, the old man could only agree with a grimace, and then said: "It's just that the little old man has never seen the imperial envoy's seal..."

Mu Su waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, as long as it looks real."

"Young man, try your best..."

"If you dare to use water radish to make up the numbers, I will not let you go!" Mu Su narrowed his eyes and threatened. "Also, give me another Shang Fang sword."

It's easy to take action if Chang Wei pops up.

But then the old man said that he needed to go to a blacksmith to make weapons, and Oshi also asked Shang Fang what the sword was.

It seems that there is no such thing as "Shangfang Sword" in the background of this copy, so Mu Su can only give up.

After coming out of the seal-engraving shop, Oshi guessed that he had witnessed the whole process, and if Zhixian launched an attack... and on the bright side, he thought that Master Mu regarded him as one of his own.

Everyone was wandering on the street with their own thoughts, when suddenly a policeman with a knife rushed in front of him.

The two government officials who were protecting Mu Su pulled out their long knives and stepped forward to protect Mu Su. However, they saw the policeman kneeling down on his knees a few meters away, sliding in front of Mu Su and shouting: "Sir, something happened!"

"Nothing happened to me. Why don't I just stand here?"

"Thirteen members of the Sun family in the west of the city were wiped out!"

Oshi's face was shocked, and Mu Su's face was furious: "Chang Wei, you are so brave!"

The policeman looked up blankly: "Sir, this villain is not called Chang Wei."

"I didn't tell you. Come on, take me to see you."

Mu Su lifted up the hem of his official robe and quickly followed the policeman leading the way.

Oshi followed behind, panting.

Not far away, a child with a bruised nose and swollen face ran past.

Oshiji saw that he looked familiar, and then he suddenly realized that this was not the child who spat at Musu...

He suddenly understood Mu Su's intention of giving the two cents, and felt chilled in his heart. This gentleman... really cannot be offended.

When Mu Su and his party rushed to Sun Mansion, a group of people gathered outside the gate, and several government officials struggled to maintain order.

"New Chi Prefecture is here!"

Someone shouted, and the scene fell silent for an instant, and everyone turned to look at him.

Mu Su raised his arms.

Wow——

The crowd suddenly dispersed.

[Mu Su, these civilians are very wary of you. If you want to complete the secondary mission, this case is a way to reverse their hostility. 】

Transparent Bridge advises him.

Mu Su nodded and walked through the passage that the common people had let go of, crossed the threshold and entered the Sun Mansion.

There is a faint smell of blood that permeates the garden. There are corpses in the bedrooms, living room, garden, and even the pavilion. They are covered with white cloth and two widowers are doing an autopsy.

The head catcher came up and told Mu Su the situation.

The first person to discover it was the watchman Wang Wu. He passed by the Sun Mansion several times during the watch last night, but the two lanterns in front of the door were never lit. In the past, these two lanterns were lit until dawn.

Wang Wu didn't hear any sound, so he didn't think much about it. It wasn't until dawn between Chou Shi and Yin Shi that the watchman went out to buy ingredients.

He felt strange, so he came to the door. He found that the door was open a crack. When he pushed it open, he saw that the house was full of dead bodies. In panic, he reported it to the police. Later, Wu Zuo verified this and found that these people had been dead for at least three hours.

, it smelled a bit after being exposed to the sun.

"Where is the watchman?"

"Sir, please wait a moment." The policeman left with his fists clasped, and soon he led a middle-aged man with a short stature and a wretched face.

Mu Su asked him first: "Do you know Chang Wei?"

The watchman shook his head blankly.

[Who is Chang Wei?] Transparent Bridge in the live broadcast room also asked.

Mu Su was shocked, and he actually forgot to turn on the live broadcast. What a risk... he almost showed his true colors again.

He whispered to make amends: "Sophon's dungeon mechanism is to mix a bunch of keywords and then merge them into a new dungeon. I am somewhat familiar with this case, and I am testing whether it is the same as I imagined."

[So this is it...] The Transparent Bridge suddenly became confused, and then the doubts deepened.

What happened this month... to cause such a big change in Musu...

After briefly understanding the situation, Mu Su, accompanied by the police officer and the head catcher, returned to the gate, looked down at the people who had not dispersed under the steps, and said in a deep voice: "Just after I took office, such a shocking murder case occurred in Feixian County. This is a reflection on me.

Official provocation..."

"This case——"

He looked around, his dark eyes cold.

"Open court for trial."
