Li Hao said slowly: "Because there are seven fire points, this is obviously not an accidental water walk, but a deliberate arson." ”

"Seven ignition points?" Chen Song's eyes widened when he heard this, and he asked, "How do you know that there are seven fire points?" ”

Li Hao swept away the charcoal and broken bricks on the ground with his foot, and said, "Look here, look at other places, what's the difference?" ”

Chen Song carefully compared, frowned, and said, "The ground here is relatively dark. ”

"Yes, it's darker." Li Hao nodded and explained, "In general accidental fires, there will be a fire point, and the fire point will be darker because the fire point is longer than the burning time in other places, so the ground of the fire point will be darker, this is a fire point, I have just seen it all over the scene, there are seven fire points like this." ”

Chen Song looked at Li Hao in shock when he heard this, this kind of clue can be found by Li Hao, he has to admire Li Hao's shrewdness and wisdom.

Li Hao inspected the ruins of the granary for a long time, and suddenly saw a pile of black gray carbon, his eyes lit up, and he was just about to step forward to check, but at this moment, there was a human voice outside, Chen Song listened carefully, and then said in a deep voice: "Qin Miao is here." ”

Li Hao twisted his eyebrows and said coldly: "If you go and stop him, just say that I am here to investigate the case and no one is allowed to come in, if he doesn't listen, let Chen Bin not be polite." ”

"Yes!" Chen Song immediately took the order and ran out, and then Qin Miao's shouting came out, obviously, he had a lot of opinions about Li Hao not allowing him to come in, after all, he was the assassin of Dingzhou City, Li Hao was just a martial artist, and he was not qualified to investigate the case. However, his objection was ineffective, Chen Song conveyed Li Hao's words to Chen Bin, and Chen Bin took two hundred Xuanjia Army shields to block the entrance of grain and grass, the meaning was obvious, come, hurt each other.

Qin Miao was frightened by the two hundred Xuanjia army, and the awe-inspiring killing intent, although there were only two hundred people, it seemed to be an elite army of twenty thousand, which made him shudder, and he could only wait outside.

Li Hao ignored the noise outside, he was very interested in the pile of gray carbon in front of him, this pile of gray carbon is likely to tell him a lot of things, he walked over and carefully observed this pile of gray carbon, you can see the traces of sacks one by one, it can be seen that this was originally a grain pile, and this pile of gray carbon is left after burning, however, there is a phenomenon when burning, that is, some grass and wood things will retain the general shape before burning after burning, such as paper, if there is no wind when burning, and it is not touched, It is very likely that the ash left behind is still a whole sheet, and sometimes you can even read the words on the paper.

This pile of ash carbon is like this, this pile should be the innermost grain pile in the granary, it was not blown by the wind when it burned, and it burned for the shortest time, so leaving such a good grain pile, it still looks a bit like a black sack piled up there.

Li Hao poked lightly with his fingers on a carbonized sack, the sack was punctured, revealing the black ash inside, Li Hao enlarged the small hole, took out his whole hand, and then grabbed a handful of ash out.

Looking at the ash in his palm, Li Hao smiled, the corners of his mouth lifted lightly, and he smiled to himself: "I see." ”

After a long time, Li Hao came out of the ruins of the granary without hurrying, and as soon as Qin Miao saw Li Hao come out, he hurriedly said: "Li Xianhou, how can you be like this?" ”

Li Hao pretended to be confused: "What's wrong with me?" ”

Qin Miao said: "How can you trespass into this granary without permission, the case of the granary water has not yet been concluded, and no one can enter here." ”

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "Ben Hou is also here to investigate the case." ”

Qin Miao snorted coldly: "The case of the granary taking water is a case in Dingzhou, and the official will deal with it himself, so why bother with the marquis, the marquis of Li County only needs to protect His Royal Highness the King of Jin with all his responsibility." ”

Li Hao didn't expect him to be very articulate, and sneered: "Benhou is entrusted by His Majesty to assist His Royal Highness the King of Jin in disaster control, and this granary fire is related to the major event of disaster control, which has seriously affected the progress of disaster control, why can't Benhou check it, and this is what His Royal Highness the King of Jin specially told Benhou to investigate, because King Jin suspects that this granary fire was deliberately done by someone." ”

Qin Miao was robbed by him, his face was very ugly, and he snorted coldly: "This official knows that Master Hou is very wise, but investigating the case is not as simple as guessing, everything has to be evidenced, Lord Hou said that the fire was deliberately done by someone, what evidence is there?" ”

Li Hao said with a smile: "It is precisely because there is no evidence for the time being, so I want to come here to collect evidence, Ben Hou heard that when the granary was drained, it was a person named Wang Er who was responsible for guarding the granary, 50,000 stone disaster relief grain, and only one person was sent to guard it, and now that such a big thing has happened, Lord Qin is afraid of dereliction of duty!" If this leads to a mutiny among the victims and a riot, Lord Qin is only afraid that he will not be able to escape the blame! ”

"Master Hou, don't scare the official." Qin Miao was not afraid at all, and said loudly, "The Dingzhou granary has always been guarded by two people in turn, not only Dingzhou, but also in any state and county in Hebei Province, this is the case, this official just does things according to the rules, how can he be derelict in his duties?" ”

"It's a good thing to do by the rules." Li Hao said coldly, "Now that the 50,000 stone disaster grain has turned to ashes, what do you do to help the victims and cut your flesh?" ”

Qin Miao put on a righteous and awe-inspiring appearance, and said in a loud voice: "If Your Majesty decrees to blame Qin Miao and let Qin Miao cut meat to feed the victims, Qin Miao will never frown!" ”

Li Hao raised his eyebrows, this Nima is really good at acting, I feel that my status as an actor is about to be lost, but it doesn't matter, this kind of thing, it's useless to rely on acting alone, now is the time to fight your head, Li Hao laughed twice, and said: "Ben Hou heard that you arrested Wang Er, the officer on duty that night, and wanted to convict him, such a big case was ended in such a hurry, didn't Lord Qin think it was hasty?" ”

"Where's the sloppy." Qin Miao said righteously, "The brazier where Wang Er was roasting was found at the scene of the fire, and Wang Er also confessed to the fact that he caused the fire by his own fire, how hasty. ”

"Ben Hou wants to interrogate Wang Er personally."

"Forgive me!" Qin Miao directly and sternly refused.

Li Hao was furious when he heard this: "Lord Qin, when the King of Jin comes back from Hengzhou, Benhou will definitely report this matter to the King of Jin!" ”

Qin Miao snorted coldly: "This official is sitting upright, you can impeach!" What is the official to fear! ”

Li Hao snorted and flicked his sleeves: "Let's go!" With that, he walked over and turned over his horse, and left depressed.

Li Hao returned to the post station with an angry face, and as soon as he entered the room, he suddenly changed his face, looked outside, closed the door, and said to Chen Song beside him: "Chen Song, send you a task." ”

Chen Song was stunned by his sudden change, and immediately reacted and asked, "What task?" ”

"Help me find the 50,000 stone disaster relief official food."

Chen Song almost lost his voice when he heard this, and hurriedly lowered his voice and asked, "Wasn't the 50,000 yuan of grain burned to ashes?" ”

"As far as I've observed, no." Li Hao smiled shyly and said, "When I was in Tingzhou, I was set on fire to the granary, I carefully observed, the grain was fired, it was not burned clean, because the grain was heavy, piled up, the fire will only burn to the surface, even if the fire is big, it can't burn through the inside, there will be residual grain, because the combustion needs air, and the insidemost grain and air contact surface is very small, so it is difficult to burn completely, and the ashes left after the grain is burned will have a strong burnt smell, and the ashes are also relatively special. I just observed at the granary site, and I didn't see the ashes of the grain, nor did I find any residual grain, but it was a bit like the ashes of forage, and I didn't smell the burnt smell of the grain being burned, so I was sure that the 50,000 stone grain was only transferred, not burned. ”

Chen Song was a little stunned when he heard such a long paragraph, because it involved the physics of the future world, of course he didn't understand it very well, but he understood what Li Hao meant, Li Hao meant that the 50,000 stone grain was still there, but it was secretly transferred to other places.

Chen Song was stunned for a moment and asked, "What about ...... Where is the grain hidden? ”

"That's the biggest question right now." Li Hao frowned and groaned, "If my guess is correct, this incident should have been planned by Qin Miao, it will always be easy to steal from the guards, this fire is just a cover, in order to hide the fact that he has embezzled official grain, 50,000 stone grain is not a small amount, not everywhere can be hidden, think about it carefully, where can I hide grain in the city?" ”

"Assassin's Mansion?"

Li Hao shook his head decisively: "Unless he wants to die, he will never hide so much food in the Thorn History Mansion." ”

Chen Song frowned and said, "Then where can I hide it, so much grain, can't I sell it all to grain merchants......

Li Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clapped his hands and said happily: "That's right, it's a grain merchant!" How many grain shops are there in the city? ”

Chen Song was also surprised, could it be that Qin Miao really sold those grains to grain merchants? He thought about it carefully and returned: "There are about seven grain shops, but they are all Cui's industry, and all the grain shops in Dingzhou, including the counties under his rule, are Cui's industry. ”

"They really colluded, huh!" Li Hao's eyes became gloomy, and he said in a low voice, "Chen Song, you will give me a secret trip to all the grain shops in the city tonight to see how much grain they have, and I will send Chen Bin to bring someone to deal with you, and once it is confirmed that their grain storage is far beyond the normal amount, all of them will be stolen out for me." ”

"Okay." Chen Song smiled evilly and nodded, he likes to do this kind of bad thing the most, super energetic.

That night, all the Xuanjia soldiers took off their iron shield heavy armor, changed into night clothes, and sneaked into the night under the leadership of Chen Bin.

It didn't take long for Chen Song to visit the seven grain shops in the city, and found that the grain storage of these seven grain shops was amazingly large, although he did not have time to carefully count, but a rough calculation, the grain storage of each grain shop reached 10,000 stones, adding up to at least 70,000 stone of grain.

Next, the armor soldiers began to move, and the strength they had cultivated during their training had not yet been used on the battlefield, but they were willing to do so, because it was for the benefit of the people.

The day has just dawned, 80,000 stone grain has been piled up in the size of the post house, like a mountain of food, standing on the street can see the food hill in the post house, and the grain bag is also marked with the mark of the Tang Dynasty, of course, some grain bags are marked with the mark of Cui's family, because there are 20,000 stone grain is Cui's grain shop own grain, since they dare to steal the official grain, Li Hao will return the way to him, not only steal the official grain back, but also steal their grain by the way, this is called stealing chickens and rice, do you not accept it, Kind of come and ask for food back! Before you come to ask for food, please explain how the official food is mixed with your private food, huh?
