Chapter 202 (1/2)
Wei zhanmei's body is naturally much worse than hualanting, but now the spirit is hualanting's own. It has been weakened after crossing. It's easy to find someone to follow.
Just as he was considering whether to go into the deep alley of flowers to solve the problem, or continue to move forward to observe the change, a team of embroidered clothes guards hurried across from him. The head came near and said, ”general guard flag, after all, there's an accident in the city. Dage ordered you to put down your business and help immediately.”
”What happened?” Wei zhanmei asked.
”The leader of Qinglong Gang, Huang chonghu, has just been assassinated and killed. The prefect has ordered martial law in the whole city and asked the Fusi of Nanzhen to arrest the murderer within a time limit. Jiang Qianhu wants to protect the special envoy and his party. Tong Baihu has rushed to the scene. Dage leader, please go to help.”
Wei zhanmei immediately flashed the relevant information of Huang chonghu.
Huang chonghu was once one of the local snakes in Yingdu city. After Qingchuan conquered Yingdu, several other local guild leaders refused to be subjugated slaves and fled the city one after another. Only Huang chonghu stayed. After gathering all the people, the Qinglong Gang became the largest guild organization in the city and actively cooperated with the new Lord to eliminate the latent rebel forces.
Therefore, Huang chonghu was regarded as a traitor by the rebel army aiming at restoring the country. The hawk dog and accomplice of the puppet small court were on their must kill list. Huang chonghu had to be careful. He was surrounded in and out. The rebel army had sent someone to assassinate him for many times, but he didn't succeed. He didn't want to be ambushed today.
It's not a small matter. No wonder the prefect asked about it himself. Wei zhanmei knows that Zhang Hulei, a thousand families who are full-time detection and arrest thieves in Nanzhen Fu division, has been sent to suburban counties for business. Now Tong Xiang has taken over the job, but Tong Xiang is not a constable. Hu Shiwei asked him to help deal with it.
Wei zhanmei then asked the embroidered clothes guard to lead the way. When he got out of the morning market street in the morning, he could not feel the trace of the watcher. It was estimated that he saw the embroidered clothes guard coming and gave up tracking temporarily.
Not long after, when we arrived at the scene of the incident, it was a bathhouse, the surrounding roads had been sealed, and the people of Fusi in Nanzhen were inspecting the scene.
Wei zhanmei went inside and found Tong Xiang: ”Lord Baihu, Dage ordered me to help. How's the situation?”
Tong Xiang looked up and saw that it was him. There was a shadow in his eyes. Then he smiled and said, ”who am I? It used to be the general flag of Wei. Oh, no, it should be Wei Baihu now. It has been spread in the yamen, and the big Pavilion leader is ready to promote you. You and I are at the same level. You don't have to call me again in the future.”
Tong Xiang is keen on fame and was sent down from Yingdu, the new capital. He has never looked down on local people. Wei Zhan knew that he was jealous of his rapid promotion all the way. At that time, he said, ”hundreds of adults are serious and have not been officially appointed. He was ordered to come to be dispatched.”
Tong Xiang said no more and introduced: As like as two peas, I have asked him clearly that the murderer is very cunning. He heard that Huang Bazhu often came here to take a bath. He put on the same clothes as Huang Bang's main body guard. When others came out, he shouted at the side of an assassin, and then mixed up with the guards at the time of chaos.
”What clues can be left at the scene?”
”The assassin's technique is clean and neat. When he succeeds, he quickly runs away, but Lord Huang is not so easy to kill. When he escaped, he was stabbed by the bodyguard on his shoulder and bled. I have ordered someone to follow him. Now that you are here, come and have a look at the body. I have something else to confirm.”
The two men came to the body together. The assassin hit Huang chonghu's heart with a knife. Wei zhanmei gently opened her clothes and examined the edge of the knife. Tong Xiang asked:
”Wei zongqi, I always think this wound is unusual. It seems that I have seen similar descriptions in the case file, but I can't remember for a moment. You have been in the Yamen longer than me. Do you have an impression?”
Wei zhanmei was surprised. He had recognized who caused the knife edge with what weapons. He had intended not to say, but he didn't expect Tong Xiang to ask him at this time.
What does Tong Xiang mean? Do you really don't know or pretend not to know?
Wei Zhan read the lightning flash in his eyebrows and opened his mouth and replied, ”the knife edge is not deep, and the meat is very shallow. After reaching the lethal effect, he decisively took it out without wasting a trace of strength. This technique is beyond doubt. This time, Zhuang Ji of the restoration and anti traitors alliance should start!”
Tong Xiang said, ”I remember what President Wei said. Yes, Zhuang Ji, the No. 1 killer of Tianzi, is the restoration and anti traitors League. Hasn't he been moving around Yingdu all the time? Unexpectedly, he was transferred to kill Huang chonghu.”
Wei zhanmei: ”it's not surprising that sect leader Huang is on strict guard. The rebels have failed several times and have to play this big card. However, Tong Baihu, I heard that Zhuang Ji is not only good at lightness skills, but also good at martial arts. I'm afraid he can stop bleeding soon. Your people may not catch up with him.”
Tong Xiang said with a smile, ”Wei zongqi is right, but Zhuang Ji didn't have such good luck when he met me this time.”
”What do you say?” Wei zhanmei asked.
”Without him, it's just careful and lucky. I've found a small piece of clothes cut off by the blade from the blood on the ground. I may not catch up with the blood, but I can find his place by the smell of a trained hound.”
Wei zhanmei said quietly, ”it's said that Tong Baihu didn't come from six doors, but his skill is powerful. Congratulations to Tong Baihu on his capture of the court's key criminal in advance.”
Tong Xiang laughed: ”it's easy to say. Let's do it together. I really caught Zhuang Ji. I can't do without your credit.”
At this time, an embroidered clothes guard whispered a few words. Tong Xiangxi said, ”I found it. Leave ten people here, and the rest will go with me.”
The embroidery guards of the brigade quickly surrounded and blocked a quiet area in the south of the city. The terrain here is complex and dozens of families are distributed.
When they arrived, the embroidered clothes guard flag officer came up to report the situation. Tong Xiang and Wei zhanmei were hidden by a high-lying roof chimney. Tong Xiang ordered: ”wait for all the personnel to be in place, listen to my order, and send someone to hit the door to launch an attack.”
While waiting, Wei zhanmei suddenly said, ”hundreds of adults, there are many houses and alleys here. Zhuang Ji may not be alone. We need to prevent criminals from fleeing in multiple ways, so as not to be tempted to leave the mountain.”
Tong Xiang asked, ”well, what do you suggest?”
