Chapter 121: Silence
Yu Kun quickly led people into a small forest not far away. It was said to be a small forest, but in fact it was a forest belt one hundred meters long and five meters wide. Yu Kun asked more than a dozen detectives to surround the small forest. If Ye Xiuzhi was
He and Zhao Xingwang were still in the woods, and it was difficult for them to escape the siege of the police.
Yu Kun led people to gradually narrow the circle of woods. Suddenly, he heard someone shouting "There is a body!" Yu Kun quickly ran towards the place where the sound came from, and saw a man and a woman lying in a pool of blood in the grass, with their necks
Apparently their throats were sealed with a sharp blade. Yu Kun carefully inspected the two corpses. According to the descriptions of the two civet cat owners, it was obvious that the dead were Ye Xiuzhi and Zhao Xingwang.
The clues were interrupted again, and now we can only find the answer by following the sword wound on the neck of the deceased. Through Wu Zuo's inspection and Yu Kun's own judgment, the deceased died at the hands of a swordsman. Yu Kun also practiced swordsmanship.
The swordsmanship that killed Ye Xiuzhi and Zhao Xingwang was obviously much better than his own. Apart from the Escort Bureau and the Cao Gang, there should be no such masters in the county government office. Yu Kun believed that this master could not come from the Cao Gang or the Escort Bureau, so there was only one
There is a possibility that this person was also instructed by the mysterious person behind him.
The clues about the civet cat keeper were gone, and now there are only two clues left to explore the Prime Minister's Mansion and the cargo-intercepting barracks base's contact with the outside world. Yu Kun increased the manpower ambushing near the barracks, and also asked the bodyguards operating near the Prime Minister to
Please pay attention to safety.
One day later, Yu Kun received news from the police officers near the barracks. The police officers had lost the returning homing pigeons. As expected, these soldiers were raised by dignitaries in the court. However, the person who replied to the letter was very mysterious, and the signature only used a code name.
Yu Kun asked the people near the barracks to withdraw. He didn't want to alert the enemy, and besides, it was not up to him, a little headhunter, to eliminate these private soldiers.
Although he replied with a code name, Yu Kun felt that this kind of rice paper must be special paper for high-ranking officials in the capital. He wanted to find the owner of the rice paper through some underground organizations in the city. Yu Kun understood that his subordinates and bodyguards would not come forward for these things.
That's great. It's safest to spend money to find someone to do the job.
In order to solve the case, the county magistrate decided to use the general reserve fund, and Yu Kun also took out a thousand taels of silver from his own small vault. Yu Kun doesn't know how to solve this case now, but he just wants to find out who is planning to cause trouble.
.As long as the mastermind behind the scenes was found out, Yu Kun decided to let the county magistrate lead the war to the court, and let the Procuratorate and the Ministry of Punishment solve the subsequent case.
Sure enough, money can make the world go round. Three days later, Yu Kun received a report from an informant. The rice paper on which the letter was written came from the eldest princess's house. Yu Kun was a little confused and asked the informant to come to him in person and asked, "Since this is the case,
Rice paper is used by the royal family, so how can you confirm that it is used by the eldest princess’s family and not the prince’s?”
"Your Majesty, since I have taken your money, I naturally have to do things well. Yes, all the princes and princesses use the rice paper distributed uniformly in the palace. It is really difficult for ordinary people to tell which prince and princess it comes from.
But the eldest princess has a habit. After her rice paper arrives at the palace, she will personally use a red pen to color a corner of the rice paper. Sir, please see, there is a red mark on the corner of this letter."
"The question is how do you prove that other princesses and princes don't have this habit?" Yu Kun likes to draw inferences when thinking about things. He thinks about things comprehensively and is good at thinking. The reason why he asks this question is because he is afraid that these informants will turn things upside down for money.
black and white.
"Sir, you paid us so much money. I don't think I dare to be sloppy. This is the rice paper pattern my men got from all the princes and princesses. Please take a look!" The informant took it from his arms.
A stack of rice paper was handed to Yu Kun.
Yu Kun took it and took a look. In his opinion, the dozen paper patterns were almost identical, but each paper was marked with the name of the user. Yu Kun looked at each one carefully, and sure enough, there was only a corner of rice paper marked with the eldest princess.
