Chapter 47 Closing the case (all kinds of kneeling
Liumen was in charge of handling cases and had very detached powers, not to mention that the person who died was the county magistrate Fang Tingxiao. He almost just showed his identity, and Zhao Jixin took two of his confidants into the backyard of the county government office.
Not long after, someone brought Lu Hao, who was covered in bruises and it was very difficult to even walk.
Seeing his miserable condition, Zhao Jixin and the others frowned, unable to help but be shocked by Li Gang's cruelty.
"I have met three adults."
Lu Hao lowered his head, his messy hair covering his bloody face.
Zhao Jixin said: "Lu Hao, you are one of the top leaders of the Tiger Gang. I believe you are a smart man. I don't need to say anything more. I will tell you the whole story of how you were beaten."
From this we can see how sophisticated Zhao Jixin is. He did not tell what happened to the Tiger Gang and Li Gang just to prevent Lu Hao from having other thoughts and lying.
But Zhao Jixin probably didn't expect that before he arrived, a group of people were on the long street outside the county government, shouting loudly about the murder of Li Gang and his son, Fang Tingxiao's master and servant.
When the group of people were driven away, everyone in the county government heard about it, and Lu Hao was no exception.
He didn't believe it at first, but the arrival of Zhao Jixin and the other party's eager look made Lu Hao realize that things had taken a shocking turn.
He didn't know how it got to this point, but he knew that Li Gang and Fang Tingxiao were going to deal with Zhuo Mufeng. As a result, the first two people died. What about Zhuo Mufeng?
Thinking of that face that always had a gentle smile, Lu Hao trembled for no reason.
Of course he didn't believe that Zhuo Mufeng had this ability, but what if? If he confessed the truth, Zhuo Mufeng would definitely die without a burial place, but he himself would not end well.
And if he conceals it, even if Zhuo Mufeng did not do it, it will not harm him and he can still keep his good reputation.
So it’s clear what to choose.
After quickly going over his words in his mind, Lu Hao said: "To be honest, sir, I am also very confused about this matter. Although the gang leader is not very polite to me, he is not enough to take action. A few days ago, something suddenly happened
Torture me severely."
"Asshole! How dare you deal with it casually when Capt. Zhao is in front of you?"
One of the confidants behind Zhao Jixin was furious. This kind of statement can only deceive a three-year-old child.
Lu Hao said calmly: "It wasn't until today, when he was brought to Master Fang, that Lu Hao realized that the gang leader wanted to use me as a tool to bow to Master Fang."
Zhao Jixin narrowed his eyes: "How do you say that?"
"I believe that the three adults are all aware of what happened some time ago. There was some conflict between the gang leader and Mr. Fang, and the Golden Gou Gambling Shop was also hit hard. According to my guess, the gang leader must have no choice, so he plans to apologize to Mr. Fang.
In order to show sincerity, ordinary members of the gang have no weight, and among the ten senior leaders, the others are either highly skilled in martial arts or responsible for important business, but Lu is the only one who is neither above nor below, so he is suitable to take the blame."
Lu Hao sounded heartbroken.
Zhao Jixin sneered and said: "It is not the style of you Jianghu people to arrange your own boss like this. It seems that you are planning to follow others."
Lu Hao was shocked. This guy had such a keen mind. It seemed that he had to deal with it carefully.
While he was in awe, he heard Zhao Jixin ask again: "Then why did Li Gang kidnap his son?"
"About this, Lu doesn't know anything about it."
Zhao Jixin took a breath, deeply aware of Lu Hao's difficulty.
If the other party says that he knows in order to get rid of suspicion as soon as possible, it will prove that he is not innocent. But this guy knows the strategy of being calm and conservative, which is really hard to say.
After asking some more questions, in the cold eyes of Zhao Jixin and the others, Lu Hao remained calm and reasonable, making it impossible for anyone to find any flaws.
"The matter has not yet been fully investigated, so we can only temporarily aggrieve Master Lu and go to jail for some time. We will wait until we find Gang Leader Li."
Zhao Jixin said calmly, his eyes were like an eagle's, and he found that Lu Hao's body trembled slightly.
"Lu Hao knows everything he knows, and at the same time he also believes that you will deal with it impartially and clear the innocent person's name."
Lu Hao hugged a fist, but he was worried that Li Gang was not dead yet, but he could only force himself to calm down, and then left the backyard under the escort of the Yamen servants.
"Sir, this guy looks like an old fool at first glance. Do you want to be punished?"
One of his confidants couldn't help but feel depressed and said viciously.
With his eyesight, of course he couldn't see Lu Hao's flaws, but he was dissatisfied with the other party's lackluster attitude. It wasn't until he was scolded by Zhao Jixin that he put away his ferocious expression.
After thinking about it, Zhao Jixin said with a smile: "Go back and write a report. Fang Tingxiao died in retaliation from Jianghu gangs. There are both witnesses and physical evidence. We are currently trying our best to hunt down the real culprit."
The two confidants looked at their master in disbelief.
"Isn't it strange? I have been living in Red Sun City for so many years, and I have long given up the idea of climbing up. It is too late to avoid such a thankless task as handling cases.
Since everything points to the murderer being Li Gang, then it is Li Gang.
And I guess it’s hard to find Li Gang. If he doesn’t let go, he will be scolded by the superiors instead. It’s better to just go with the flow and say hello to me and everyone, why not do it?”
Zhao Jixin's remarks obviously made the two young men uncomfortable.
"However, there are clearly doubts about this case, and sir, can you bear to be treated as a fool?"
"I used to be too serious like you. You will know after you have been around for a long time. Fool? Hahaha, if you live a good life, you will no longer be a fool."
Zhao Jixin walked away, thinking that no matter how he investigated the case, it would be difficult to restore the truth. It would be better to sell someone a favor than to offend him.
In official circles and arenas, it is rare to be confused.
Although the decision was made, the process still had to be followed. In the next two days, Zhuo Mufeng and Shang Du were called to six doors for questioning, and their answers were recorded.
On the street, a large number of officers and soldiers were searching every house every day, and then expanded outside the city. Unfortunately, no matter how hard they searched, they could not find any trace of Li Gang.
How would outsiders know that after Mr. Zhang left Chunfeng Tower that day, he immediately took the master's carriage, found a secluded place, and burned Li Gang's body.
Therefore, it is destined that the officers and soldiers of Red Sun City are doing useless work.
Of course, this is not a problem for the government. They can casually say that Li Gang is missing, suspect that he has escaped from Red Sun City, and will definitely hunt him down in the future. Even if the case is closed, the case will be closed.
At most, a few more notices could be posted to list him as a wanted criminal from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and ask all states and cities to assist in the investigation.
At this point, the shocking case that caused a sensation in Red Sun City was successfully concluded with the active cooperation of all parties.
If it weren't for the fear of being held accountable, the people would really want to celebrate with each other and set off some firecrackers to add to the fun. There will be no way to get rid of them in the future. I believe that life will be much smoother.
