Chapter 1144: Wait for the Day After Tomorrow
The restaurant outside Babu Alley has existed for more than a hundred years, and if such an important place, the Tingwei Mansion does not pay attention to it, and the Tingwei Mansion does not control it, it is enough to show that the Tingwei Mansion is incompetent.
The proprietor of the restaurant was a slightly fat middle-aged man, and after ordering his subordinates to stare at the two suspicious fanbangs, he returned to the restaurant, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly remembered the news from the Tingwei Mansion before, so his heart tightened.
"Are you coming?"
He beckoned a young man over: "Go to the Tingwei Mansion immediately and tell Lord Du Tingwei that a suspicious person has appeared, and he was in a trance just now because he forgot Lord Du Tingwei's explanation." ”
The young man nodded and lowered his voice and replied, "Got it, Lord Baiban." ”
The fat man's name is Yu Huai, no matter how you look at it, this person should not have anything to do with the Tingwei Mansion, at a glance when you see him, you can judge that this is a typical businessman, some people say that the eyes of the businessman are easy to recognize, but it is difficult to say in detail how to let him say how to recognize it.
The more Yu Huai thought about it, the more he felt that those two people were suspicious, the people he sent were average, in case it was not good if he delayed a big event, he had an official position of the Tingwei Mansion Baiban, but in fact, he had never really participated in any cases, he inherited this Baiban from his father, and it was the Tingwei Mansion that provided a lot of intelligence information for the Tingwei Mansion for so many years in order to reward their family, this kind of Baiban has no real power, but Baiban is Baiban, and the level is there.
He was worried that something was wrong, so he explained that the shopkeeper behind the counter was optimistic about the store, and then hurriedly came out of the front door and chased in the direction where one of the fanbangs had left.
Walking along the street, after walking for about a moment, he saw his own guy standing in the corner, he went over and patted it: "What's wrong?" ”
The young man was startled, and then secretly pointed to the teahouse opposite: "People are inside." ”
"How many?"
"Just one."
"Are you sure you're in, just by yourself?"
"Sure, keep an eye on it."
Yu Huai took a breath, thinking that he had to confirm it, so he ordered: "You go to find someone from the Tingwei Mansion to come over, I'm here to watch, it's faster, there must be something wrong with this person." ”
The young man answered, and quickly turned around and ran.
Yu Huai tidied up his clothes and walked into the teahouse, he had to confirm whether it was the two suspicious people just now, but as soon as he entered the teahouse, he saw Ono Jian sitting there listening to the commentary, with his legs crossed, and seemed to be listening with relish, there were many people in the hall of the teahouse, Ono Jian sat at the end near the door, but not facing the door, so Yu Huai didn't see it outside, and the two of them were already very close when he entered the door.
Yu Huai turned around and was about to leave, but Daye Jian suddenly turned around: "Huh? Isn't this the owner of the restaurant where I just dined? ”
He got up: "You're here to listen too?" ”
Yu Huai hurriedly smiled: "It turns out that it is here, didn't I chase you, you gave more money when you just checked out, and I have been chasing it out and wanting to return it to you." ”
Ohno Jian said with a smile: "It's really admirable for the owner to do business, anyway, it's here, I invite you to have a cup of tea?" ”
Yu Huai hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, I have to go back to the store in a hurry." ”
Ohnojian: "Well, in fact, I did the math just now, I should have given you an extra 150 yuan, and if you return it to me, it will be just enough for me to drink tea and listen to books here." ”
Yu Huai hurriedly took off the money bag: "I didn't bring so much money, we are already friends, I will return you a piece of broken silver, which can probably be worth two hundred yuan, you can keep it." ”
Ohno Jian pulled Yu Huai by the hand: "Sit down and say, why are you standing, I still have something to ask you." ”
He beckoned to the guy, "Add a cup to my friend." ”
The guy in the teahouse hurriedly came over and added a teacup to Yu Huai, and Daye Jian picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Yu Huai: "To be honest, that is, there can be a businessman like you in Daning, and if you give more silver, you will chase so far back." ”
Yu Huai smiled and said: "This is all as it should be, and when you do business, you have to clearly mark the price." ”
He was in a hurry to leave, so he asked, "You said you had something to ask me, what is it?" I have a lot of things going on in my store, and I have to rush back after you ask. ”
Ono Jian raised his hand and put his arm around Yu Huai's shoulder very enthusiastically, leaned it to Yu Huai's ear and said in a low voice: "Owner, did you collect the money?" How do I remember that it was the shopkeeper, and there was ...... I didn't settle the account, so how can I know how much money was settled and how much you overcharged? You returned the money to me without even thinking about it, so ...... Are the merchants of Ningguo so stupid? ”
Yu Huai's face changed, and just as he was about to speak, Ohno Jian covered his mouth with one hand and poked a dagger into Yu Huai's heart with the other, the dagger twisted back and forth in Yu Huai's heart a few times, and it didn't take long for Yu Huai to lie on the table and not move.
Ohno Jian got up and looked around, and patted Yu Huai on the back: "You shouldn't have chased after me, you will remember my appearance." ”
He also took off his clothes and covered Yu Huai, no one thought that his robe was still a caftan inside, after leaving the teahouse, he walked all the way forward, deliberately turned around a few times before returning to the inn he rented, entered the door to get something to settle the room fee, went out to find a place where no one was there and shaved the beard on both sides of his face with a dagger, and then cut the beard on his chin in half, turned around and entered another inn that was only two shops away from the inn just now.
"Someone from the Tingwei Mansion?"
He sat by the window and muttered to himself, then sighed: "The terrible Tingwei Mansion." ”
Half an hour later, the Tingwei Mansion.
The young man looked at the owner lying on the ground with a pale face, the blood on the owner's heart had not yet dried, obviously frightened and sad, and people were in a state of collapse at any time.
Fang Baijing squatted next to the corpse and looked at it, frowning: "I am not a person who kills people often, and I don't have such accurate and ruthless knife techniques." ”
He turned back to the young man and asked, "Now let you describe what that person looks like, can you?" ”
"Yes!"
The young man nodded with red eyes: "I've been staring at him, even if he turns to ashes, I can recognize him." ”
"Call the painter."
Fang Baijing covered the body with a white cloth: "Send someone to the restaurant and inform his family." ”
The painter arrived in a short time, and according to the young man's repeated revisions and repeated paintings, but in fact, it is indeed difficult for the ink pen painter to draw a person's face very realistically, and the portrait was painted for nearly an hour, and the young man pointed to the portrait and said, "There are eight or nine points of portrait." ”
Fang Baijing was silent for a moment, then turned around and ordered: "Draw another one, send one to Chang'an Mansion, and let Chang'an Mansion search people for the whole city according to the portrait." ”
His subordinates paused for a moment: "My lord, hand it over to Chang'an Mansion?" Won't we take over this case? ”
"Pick it up."
Fang Baijing said: "I have to let those people know that the case is now in Chang'an Mansion." ”
Meanwhile.
About a street away from Tingwei's Mansion, outside a shop selling silk and satin, Gai Hao looked around, and then stepped into the door, and the shopkeeper saw him come in, and hurriedly greeted him, and brought people directly into the inner room.
"Ken Ohno, this idiot."
After Gai Hao sat down, he said, "He actually killed people directly...... There were 10,000 ways to avoid being tracked, and he chose the stupidest one. ”
The shopkeeper lowered his head and said: "My lord, do you want to simply get rid of Ohno Jian, this person may miss a big thing, and the forces that we have built up in Chang'an City in the past three years may be implicated by him." ”
"How many of us are in Chang'an?"
"Not a lot, after all, it's easy to find someone from the Bohai Sea."
The shopkeeper is also from Bohai, but when he speaks, he seems to forget that he is also from Bohai.
"There are too many poor people on the Bohai Sea, and there are more people who are willing to die for money, take them out of the Bohai Sea to find a place to train for a while, so that they can eat enough and eat meat, they are willing to do anything, in the past three years, our strategy on the Chang'an side has changed, it is no longer the layout of the past, in the past, our black military spies were disguised as businessmen, but since the defeat, the Tingwei Mansion has become more and more strict for the investigation of businessmen, and at least two-thirds of the spies have been exposed and killed."
The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief: "Later, the general of Liao Killing Wolf sent someone to contact me, asking me to re-contact the secret spies in Chang'an City, I rearranged the manpower according to the current situation in Chang'an City, you should not know yet, two major events happened in Chang'an City a while ago, the first is that the general Shen Leng was punished, and the second is that the biggest Jianghu force in Chang'an City, Liuyun, will be canceled by the imperial court. ”
"The Liuyun Society is gone, so the various underworld forces in Chang'an City have re-emerged, taking advantage of this opportunity, I arranged for our secret spies to form a gang, named the Haohai Gang, after all, they are all people from the Bohai Sea, relying on them are not afraid of death, and they will fight desperately, so they have already fought for some territory, and it is better to use the gang to cover up the identity of the secret spy than to use the identity of a businessman, even the people of the Tingwei Mansion would not have thought that our secret spies of the black army would dare to blatantly form a gang in Chang'an City."
Gai Hao nodded: "You did a very good job this time, and when I return to Heiwu, I will find a way to transfer you back and stay by my side to do things...... Also, what did you just say, get rid of Ken Ohno? ”
Gai Hao thought about it carefully: "If we find a way to expose Ohno Jian and let him be arrested by the people of the Tingwei Mansion, of course it is best to die directly, then we will do things more secretly, right?" ”
The shopkeeper's face nodded: "Yes! ”
"If he dies, the people of the Tingwei Mansion will let their guard down."
Gai Hao got up and paced back and forth in the room.
"No, it's not the right time."
Gai Hao stopped: "Even if we use his death to ensure that what we want to do is done smoothly, it is not now, wait until the emperor of Ning Guo dies, and push the killing of Emperor Ning on him." ”
He looked at the shopkeeper: "How many gang members can use?" ”
"There are hundreds of people, half of them are our secret spies, half of them are Ning people, unwanted Jianghu guests, they don't know what they are doing for us, and they think that they are really grabbing land and mixing the rivers and lakes, and these people don't have to feel distressed when they die."
Gai Hao frowned and pondered: "The plan has to be changed again, and the people of Ono Jian have to be pulled into the game." ”
He looked outside: "Keep an eye on every move of the Tingwei Mansion, in addition, let the people of the gang cause trouble, don't use our people, use the undesirable Ningren Jianghu guests you said, use them to distract the attention of the Tingwei Mansion and other yamen, and prepare what I need, I will use it the day after tomorrow." ”
"Yes!"
The shopkeeper responded: "Just wait for the day after tomorrow." ”
