Chapter 137: Someone Jiang handles the case, kill first and then ask
…
Hanzhong County, Night Reconnaissance Department.
'Li Fu' is the person in charge of the Night Detective Department of Hanzhong County. At this time, he is sitting on a wooden chair and telling Jiang Erlang and others what happened after Yinghuo Shouxin arrived.
"That night, the celestial phenomenon of Yinghuo Shouxin appeared, and we saw a huge ancient bronze door appear in the sky, and then a 'Sky Stone' landed..."
"..."
"Five days later, Yan Jinqi led a group of troops to Hanzhong County and immediately searched for the location where the Tianshi landed. I was responsible for guarding the outside..."
"..."
"When we heard the noise and rushed in, Yan Jinqi was already dead. He Zuo also performed an autopsy, but no fatal wounds were found on Yan Jinqi's body. At the same time, we found traces of a wizard..."
"Jiang Yinqi already knows what happened next... We suspect that this is probably a trap set by the wizards of the Southern Region."
"..."
After listening to Li Fu's story.
Su Qing and Liang Waner both looked at Jiang Erlang.
Jiang Erlang did not speak, but chose to remain silent, because he had just arrived in Hanzhong County and had no clues at all.
When Li Fu saw that Jiang Erlang was silent, he continued: "I heard that Jiang Yinqi has the ability to 'guess and solve cases'. I wonder if there are any clues?"
He also belongs to the "Silver Flag" in the Night Detective Division, but the difference is that he is nearly fifty years old.
His promotion path is different from Jiang Erlang's. He got up step by step. Therefore, there is nothing too great about the newly promoted Yinqi who is very famous but very young.
Much love.
Even though Jiang Erlang's trip represented Duke Di and the Queen Mother.
"Chief Li just said that there is more than one 'Sky Stone'?" Jiang Erlang did not reply to Li Fu's words, but asked instead.
"Yes." Li Fu nodded: "The sky is like rain, and it falls in three locations, namely Jiangxia Village, Hidden Dragon Island and Tangxun Lake. Among them, Jiangxia Village has the most people. Yan Jinqi was in trouble
The place is in Jiangxia Village. Now we have sent people to guard these three locations, Jiang Yinqi can go and check at any time."
A village, an island, a lake...
Sky stones have descended on all three locations, but there is only one truly effective sky stone!
This range is really broad enough.
Jiang Erlang looked at the map in front of him.
Jiangxia Village is located between Hidden Dragon Island and Tangxun Lake, and it has the most people. Yan Jinqi chose to go to Jiangxia Village as soon as possible, which was a very reasonable choice.
When Liang Wan'er saw that Jiang Erlang didn't say anything, she pretended to analyze: "If this sky stone falls into the lake, it will be in trouble... Do we need to find some boats?"
Li Fu shook his head: "If it really fell into the lake, there would be no trouble."
"Eh? Why?"
"Because if you fall into the lake, it means that no one can get it. This Tangxun Lake is very large. If a stone falls into it, who can find it?" Li Fu replied.
"That's true..."
When Liang Wan'er heard this, she felt enlightened.
Jiang Erlang smiled: "Although what Chief Li said makes sense, if the Tianshi is left in the lake, it will reappear one day. Who can take the responsibility at that time?"
"Does Jiang Yinqi still have a way to get the sky stone from the lake?" Li Fu looked surprised and disdainful: "If Jiang Yinqi really has a way, I am willing to help him with all his strength."
This is an obvious run.
Jiang Erlang did not argue with Li Fu.
Because, he happened to receive the message from Jiang Yuer.
I know the inn where the envoy from the Southern Territory is staying.
Sure enough, we still have to cheat!
Jiang Erlang thought for a while and came up with an idea.
So, he said: "Yan Jinqi died, but the wizards of the Southern Territory did not leave. This at least shows that the wizards of the Southern Territory have not found the real 'Sky Stone' yet."
"Well, that should be the case." Li Fu nodded.
"Just now, Boss Li said that Yan Jinqi seemed to have fallen into a trap when he arrived at Jiangxia Village?"
"right."
"In that case, I have a guess."
"Jiang Yinqi, please speak!" Li Fu was stunned for a moment.
Su Qing and Liang Wan'er immediately cheered up. They were still looking forward to Jiang Erlang's 'guess'. After all, they had never missed it so far.
Especially Su Qing, she really wanted to see... how magical is Jiang Erlang's guess?
Jiang Erlang naturally saw what everyone was thinking, and did not give in. He said directly: "There are two possibilities. One, there is a traitor in the night reconnaissance department of Hanzhong County, and the whereabouts of Yan Jinqi were informed to the wizards of the Southern Territory in advance;
There are wizards from the Southern Region who are secretly monitoring the actions of the Night Detective Department."
"I think the second possibility is more likely." Li Fu pondered for a moment and said, "Because Yan Jinqi didn't tell him where he was going before he set off."
"Okay, then let's take a guess, where is the wizard from the Southern Region who is monitoring the Night Detective Department?" Jiang Erlang had long expected that Li Fu would say something like this.
"Guess...where is he? Can you...guess this?" Li Fu was obviously in disbelief.
"Let's take a guess first?" Jiang Erlang raised his lips.
"Okay, please give me some advice from Jiang Yinqi!" Li Fu's face darkened.
Su Qing and Liang Waner also didn't know what to say. Maybe it was possible to guess the case and directly guess where the other person was? This was indeed a bit unbelievable.
Jiang Erlang directly spread the ground in front of everyone, and pointed on it with his hand: "The location of our Night Reconnaissance Division is here... So, if you want to monitor the whereabouts of the Night Reconnaissance Division, the best location...
It’s here…and this location, and this location…”
He kept tapping on the map with his hand.
Li Fu, Su Qing and others could only nod their heads.
After clicking on the location, Jiang Erlang said again: "These locations are all possible, but if you have to say which location is the best, it is undoubtedly this place!"
He pointed his hand at an area directly behind the Night Reconnaissance Department.
Li Fu was a little confused at this time: "Why is this location the best?"
Jiang Erlang replied: "Because, it's dark under the lamp! From a subconscious point of view, everyone will look in front and not behind them. If I were a wizard from the Southern Territory, I would definitely not put up surveillance points.
It is at the main entrance of the Night Detective Department, but if it is placed too far away, the purpose of surveillance will not be achieved, so the area behind the Night Detective Department is the best choice."
"Yes... there is... some truth!" Li Fu thought for a moment and couldn't find a reason to refute.
Su Qing and Liang Waner were silent.
Although this guess does have some truth to it, it does not prove that it is definitely correct, right?
Is it too arbitrary to conclude that the surveillance point in the Southern Territory is here...?
The two of them were confused, but did not raise any objections.
However, Li Fu couldn't hold back and asked again: "Even if we are sure that the people from the Southern Territory are in this area, how can we find him when this area is so big?"
"There is no way to find it, we can only rely on guessing." Jiang Erlang replied.
"..." Li Fu's mouth opened: "Then...how to guess?"
"First of all, I guess it's impossible for him to hide in a private house."
"Why?" Li Fu asked immediately.
"Chief Li's questions seem to be too many?" Jiang Erlang glared at Li Fu.
"This... I'm talking too much. Please keep guessing, Jiang Yinqi." Li Fu choked and turned pale.
However, it was impossible for him to argue with Jiang Erlang, because the other party came with a will, and even if he was dissatisfied in his heart, he could not disobey on the surface.
Jiang Erlang continued to guess: "Since the private houses have been removed, we can target the inns. If I read correctly, there are a total of five inns in this area."
"Yeah, that's right." Li Fu nodded.
"I guess he is in this room." Jiang Erlang pointed to one of the rooms.
"..." Li Fu.
"..." Su Qing and Liang Waner.
Seeing that several people were silent, Jiang Erlang asked, "Why, do you have different opinions?"
"No...no." Li Fu immediately shook his head: "I just didn't understand why Jiang Yinqi chose this inn alone?"
"Because this inn has the best location. If I were a wizard from the Southern Region, I would choose this one."
"Is that why?"
"right!"
"..."
Li Fu didn't know what to say.
What the hell, is this just nonsense?
Is there any case handled like this?
Mr. Di, Mr. Di... are you confused in your middle age? Why did you send such a person to investigate Yan Jinqi's case?
Oh my God, our Great Qin is going to perish!
Li Fu complained endlessly in his heart.
Su Qing actually felt uncomfortable in her heart. She still remembered that Jiang Erlang captured Lexin Hou in one fell swoop in the capital. At that time, even she admired Jiang Erlang in her heart.
But now, what's going on?
She was a little speechless.
However, Liang Wan'er was somewhat used to it. After all, Jiang Erlang also guessed like this when he was in Huai'an County. The most important thing is that he guessed correctly.
So, she stood up: "Now that you have guessed where the surveillance point in the southern region is? Then what are you waiting for? Send someone to arrest him quickly!"
Li Fu could only look at Jiang Erlang and ask Jiang Erlang what he meant with his eyes.
Jiang Erlang also looked back, but there was some confusion in his eyes: "Why is Mr. Li so stunned? Are you waiting for me to invite you to dinner?"
Li Fu became even more speechless.
Isn't this too messy?
However, he still decided to remind: "Since Jiang Yinqi has determined the area where the Southern Territory surveillance point is located, why don't we just surround all five inns?"
"No need." Jiang Erlang waved his hand: "It's easy to scare the snake and arrest someone. Su Yinqi, me, and Chief Li are enough."
"Just the three of us?"
"Well, it's just the three of us. There are too many people and it's confusing."
"That's...okay!"
"By the way, let's change into casual clothes."
"good!"
Although Li Fu disagreed in his heart, this was the first time Jiang Erlang had given an order, and he felt that no matter whether he succeeded or failed, he should still cooperate.
So, the three of them left the Night Detective Division.
Naturally, Liang Wan'er did not follow him and stayed in the Night Reconnaissance Department to wait for news.
…
Junlai Inn.
Jiang Erlang, wearing a black shirt, brought Su Qing and Li Fu to the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, get a room."
"Okay, but for three guests...will we only open one room?"
"Yes, open a room."
"But, our guest rooms only have one bed?" the shopkeeper said again.
"It's not a big problem." Jiang Erlang pointed at Su Qing: "My wife and I sleep on the bed, and our housekeeper sleeps on the floor."
"Okay...okay."
Although the shopkeeper was a little unhappy, he still called the waiter and led the three of them up to the second floor.
Jiang Erlang took Su Qing's hand and walked towards the second floor.
Su Qing glared at Jiang Erlang but did not resist. Moreover, she hugged Jiang Erlang's arm and pretended to be intimate as a couple.
Li Fu, on the other hand, followed the two of them, speechless.
I've seen people eating tofu.
However, he has never seen someone so upright and taking advantage of his position to make ends meet.
Jiang Erlang didn't pay attention. After following the waiter upstairs, he started to ask: "Waiter, the business of your inn doesn't seem to be doing well. I'm afraid no one will stay here for a long time, right?"
"What did the guest officer say? Our Junlai Inn has always had a prosperous business, how come there are no long-term guests?" the waiter immediately replied.
"Haha, the second brother isn't honest enough. If you don't have it, you don't have it. Why argue? I've been in business for many years, so I still have this bit of discernment."
"Guest officer, I don't like hearing this. We really have long-term guests in our inn. For example, the guest in the ground floor room has been staying for half a month."
"Really? Can the guest be in the house now?"
"Of course I am."
"Where is the Dizifang?"
"It's the one on the front corner, facing the street."
"Okay, thank you, waiter."
Jiang Erlang nodded, and then slapped the waiter on the neck with his palm.
Snapped!
The waiter fell to the ground.
Jiang Erlang's eyes were sharp: "Di Zi Fang, hurry up!"
Li Fu and Su Qing didn't react at all. Did they confirm the location of the room? No more... check it carefully?
However, after hearing Jiang Erlang's words, Li Fu and Su Qing rushed as fast as possible to the guest room facing the street at the corner not far away.
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open.
Inside, there was an ordinary-looking young man, about thirty years old, wearing a coarse linen shirt. He was shocked for a moment when he saw the two people rushing in.
Instinctively, he sensed something was wrong and prepared to jump out of the window and escape.
But at this moment, Jiang Erlang's voice rang out at the right time: "You two idiots, are you drunk? You went to the wrong room!"
It turned out that he had gone to the wrong room... The young man breathed a sigh of relief.
About to speak.
Li Fu and Su Qing had already pounced on him.
"What are you doing?!" The young man shouted: "This is a house with a local name. You have gone to the wrong room. Someone, please... help me!!!"
However, it has no effect.
Li Fu and Su Qing quickly restrained the young man.
Jiang Erlang also walked into the room at this time, with a slight smile: "Su Qing, search the things in the room!"
"good!"
Su Qing immediately turned around.
Start searching the room.
Soon, he found some clothing from the Southern Territory, along with two letters and a token representing the Southern Territory envoy.
"He is really a spy from the Southern Region!!" Su Qing was a little unbelievable.
Li Fu stared so hard that his eyes almost dropped to the ground. Isn't this incredible? Is there really a spy from the Southern Territory living in this house?
If the evidence hadn't been conclusive, and if he had seen it with his own eyes... he wouldn't have believed it even to death.
Jiang Erlang looked calm: "Spy of the Southern Region, stop pretending. I am the newly promoted Yinqi Jiang Erlang of the Night Detective Division. You should have heard my name, right?"
"You...you have recognized the wrong person!" The young man's face changed drastically.
"You didn't admit your mistake, you are!"
"ah!"
The young man struggled hard and silently recited a strange syllable. At the same time, black mist came out of his body.
However, it was impossible for Li Fu and Su Qing to let him do anything.
Both of them are veterans of the Night Detective Division.
Although they are all dressed in casual clothes, they carry all the means to deal with the wizards of the Southern Region with them.
"You really want to run away?!"
"Lie down!"
The two of them took action together.
After a while, the young man was completely tied up, his mouth was stuffed with black cloth, and his body was tightly tortured with the night detective's torture tools.
Done all this.
Li Fu finally looked at Jiang Erlang again: "Jiang Yinqi's methods are indeed extraordinary. If Li Fu hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that there was such a magical way of handling cases in the world."
"Master Li, don't be too surprised, the more amazing thing is yet to come." Jiang Erlang replied politely.
"..." Li Fu was choked for a moment, but he still managed to smile: "Since the spy from the Southern Region has been caught, let's immediately escort him back to the Night Detective Division for trial."
"It takes too much time. Let's do the trial here." Jiang Erlang shook his head.
"here?"
"right."
"But, there are no instruments of torture here, and the southern region is a mortal enemy of our Great Qin. I heard that the wizards are all dead warriors who worship the witch god. I'm afraid it will be difficult to speak without severe punishment?" Li Fu said his thoughts
experience.
"Just leave it to me." Jiang Erlang smiled.
"This... okay!" Although Li Fu wanted to say something more, he didn't say it after all.
After all, it was Jiang Erlang who led them to capture this Southern Territory spy. Coupled with Jiang Erlang's identity, he had no right to refuse.
Su Qing spoke at this time: "When it comes to criminal techniques in the Night Detective Department, I, Su Qing, consider myself second, and no one dares to claim first. Why don't Jiang Yinqi hand him over to me for trial?"
Of course Jiang Erlang couldn't agree.
He shook his head directly: "Just keep watch at the door, don't let anyone come in. Give me half a stick of incense and I'll try it first."
"Half...half a stick of incense?!" Li Fu's mouth opened wide.
Su Qing had a strange look on his face: "Jiang Yinqi, can you really find out the information in half a stick of incense?"
"Just give it a try. If you can't find out, I'll leave it to you." Jiang Erlang replied.
"That's okay!" Su Qing's eyes lit up. She waited until Jiang Erlang couldn't find out before taking action herself. This would at least prove some value: "Chief Li, let's wait outside the door."
"Okay." Li Fu said no more and withdrew.
The door is closed.
Jiang Erlang didn't waste any more time and drew the knife directly.
"Poof!"
The long knife penetrated directly into the young man's throat.
The young man's eyes were wide open. He was still waiting for Jiang Erlang to loosen the black cloth from his mouth, and then he could laugh wildly and say a few tough words. He even thought about how to say them.
