General Lu was still busy with the reorganization of the New Army, so Commissioner Zhang stepped in to supervise the Chengjiaji incident.
In fact, Lu Ming personally did the meeting with the two captains of the security regiment, the various comforts and the inspection of their important officers, and the rest of the trivial matters were left to Qing'e's stand-in.
Nowadays, Lu Ming likes the feeling of having a substitute more and more. People's time is limited in this life. Having a puppet substitute can help him handle trivial chores, so that he can do more important things in this limited time.
But despite this, Lu Ming was busy in Heishan for several days, and then returned to Nanping and rushed to Chengjiaji without stopping.
It had been more than a week since the Chengjiaji massacre occurred. When Lu Ming came to Chengjiaji, the Suppression Movement in Chengjiaji was in full swing.
The so-called Suppression Movement means to eliminate all hostile elements and bandits within the territory.
A large number of agents from the Secrecy Bureau had already entered Chengjiaji and were the main force in the Suppression Movement.
Chengjiaji originally had a population of 70,000 to 80,000 people. Due to the war, many people fled, and those who had some property ran away. Those who remained were tenant farmers, craftsmen, small traders, etc., but they accounted for the majority of the original population.
Now there are new immigrants coming in, so the streets are inevitably a little chaotic. After the murder, a curfew was imposed.
In the high-walled courtyard of the ancestral residence of the Cheng family, there is a ferocious stone lion on both sides of the bluestone steps.
Originally, this ancestral home was not moved. After the murder, the Secrecy Bureau took it over. Now the front yard is the temporary residence of the Sujing Office.
Lu Ming also moved into the back house here.
The underground secret room in the front yard became a dungeon and interrogation room.
In more than a week, the Sujing Office has arrested hundreds of people.
Most of them were detained in temporary concentration camps, and important elements were imprisoned in the dungeons here.
…
In the east wing of the back house, Lu Ming looked through the list of arrested suspects and their information.
Almost everyone in the town who had anything to do with the Cheng family was arrested and interrogated.
Including the hoof trimmer who often repaired the hooves of the Cheng family's cattle and horses, they were all temporarily imprisoned in the concentration camp.
Lu Ming could only sigh softly as he looked at it. It would be impossible to hold suspects innocent for up to forty-eight hours in detention here. It was too inconsistent with the reality here and would make the law a castle in the air. It would be impossible to find enemies and maintain it.
Local tranquility.
However, basic human rights still need to be discussed. Before promoting the anti-crime movement, I had already issued strict orders.
But in fact, this kind of movement can easily expand, which is why you must watch it yourself.
I think that the files downloaded above can be executed below, but that is simply impossible.
The phone on the desk rang, and Lu Ming picked it up. On the other side of the phone was Jin Fuchuan's rough voice. At this time, with a hint of bloodthirsty excitement, he said, "Commissioner, the investigation has revealed that Cheng Zizi is the mastermind. He called
All of them were those who stayed in the Cheng Family Nursing Home before running away, but after committing the crime, several ran away, and the others are all on the list of detainees."
Lu Ming nodded. Using detectives to solve this kind of murderous case was like trying to catch a fish in a tree. After all, the scene was almost destroyed.
On the contrary, it is most efficient to arrest the suspect and interrogate him.
This type of murderous incident is inherently simple.
Cheng Laizi is a loyal servant of the Cheng family who stays to look after the Cheng family's mansion. He usually looks eerie to others.
After he finished the case, he didn't run away. It probably wasn't because he thought he wouldn't be caught, but because his master asked him to stay and look after the house. He had to do his duty and never run away. He was afraid that this murder would also be his own.
Looking unconvinced and feeling aggrieved, I made my own decision and asked people to do it. Calling him stupid and loyal is just to flatter him, but in fact, he is a slave who is used to it and has formed very abnormal values.
Sure enough, Jin Fuchuan over there continued: "This old guy has a tough bone. He has always said that he did it himself. He has no radio station in contact with Wanzhou, and there is no organization. The one he found is just as distasteful as him.
Those loyal servants who robbed his master's land did it! Commissioner, he has fainted now, but I promise he will not die. I will find a doctor first and continue tomorrow!"
"Maybe he is telling the truth!" Lu Ming pondered and said, "Tomorrow we will have another day to interrogate the key targets. Don't use torture. Just scare them. If there is nothing wrong, release them home."
"Okay!" Jin Fuchuan had long felt that the new master's style of doing things was different from that of Chen Rongfu before, so he stood at attention at the microphone.
Lu Ming looked at Granny Camel Dragon standing beside him, "You have been here for a few days, have you discovered anything?"
After the murder, Grandma Tuolong came immediately. For the past ten days, she has been patrolling the town every night.
Grandma Tuolong nodded, "There was a ticking sound at Tao's rice shop one night."
Granny Tuolong's ears are extremely sensitive. In a small town like Chengjiaji, where there are no high-rise buildings, she patrols the rooftops of various courtyards every night. In this specific environment, it may be more useful than a telecommunications monitoring vehicle.
Lu Ming nodded: "Tao's Rice Shop..."
Looking through the messy documents on the table, he quickly took out the registration form for Tao's rice shop.
The Tao family members have all left, and the couple who are left to look after the shop are said to be distant relatives of Boss Tao and are responsible for looking after the shop.
These are probably the intelligence agents left lurking in Wanzhou Road. They will not expose themselves easily by doing assassinations or the like.
In this choke point, Cheng Da Sui must keep his own intelligence team to spy on the news here.
"Do you want to tell Jin Fuchuan?" Grandma Tuolong asked.
Lu Ming waved his hand, "Keep it for now, don't disturb others."
Grandma Camel Dragon nodded in agreement.
Lu Ming thought for a while, "Tomorrow Sun Chonggu will also come to join in the fun. I am the spy chief who has caused a bloody storm here. Naturally, he is here to win over people's hearts and become an official of appeasement. In terms of authority, he is a two-way patrol, no matter what
Wherever the Cheng Family Collection belongs, it is within his jurisdiction."
"What do you mean, Master?" Granny Tuolong's eyes flashed.
Lu Ming coughed, and he was talking blindly. There was no one around him to talk to, and he was chatting with his grandma who knew how to fight and kill, so he immediately went off the rails.
"I mean, look what kind of show he is here to sing!" Lu Ming smiled, "Grandma Long, Da Guo didn't come with you, and no one here prepared supper. Let's go out to eat something delicious? Well, there's a curfew, let's go
Take a look at what the plainclothes men on duty are eating and try some."
Granny Camel Dragon's orange-peel zombie face stretched a little, and she whispered: "Master, please go and see what Cheng is doing, and ask her to make some sugar water..."
It seems that she is usually gloomy and emotionless, but she still doesn't like to be with her master when eating and so on. She is too restrained and doesn't enjoy eating. Moreover, the things she likes to eat are generally not appreciated by normal people, so she doesn't want to.
Seen by outsiders.
Lu Ming nodded: "Okay, go and see if she is resting."
Mrs. Cheng is a member of the Cheng family and one of Chen Rongfu's young and beautiful concubines.
Originally, Lu Ming suspected that she was the intelligence officer sent by Cheng Da Sui to Chen Rongfu, and she was also the bridge between Chen Rongfu and Cheng Da Sui.
In this era where warlords are everywhere, it is common for important officials in many places to have a few boats, let alone spy chiefs.
Therefore, when Granny Tuolong came more than ten days ago, Lu Ming asked her to bring Mrs. Cheng with her, saying that she was a local and knew the situation better and could help the Sujing Office. On the surface, Mrs. Cheng
He was also appointed as a clerk in the Sujing Office.
But through Granny Tuolong's secret observation and testing these days, it turns out that the Cheng family really has nothing to do with intelligence personnel.
If Grandma Tuolong was deceived, then the Cheng family is too powerful to be controlled by a small local warlord.
