Chapter 381: Asking for help from the Imperial City Division
To the surprise of Zhao Yan and the others, it was Lin Hu, the head of the guards beside Zhao Yan, who spoke. Seeing that everyone looked at themselves with surprised eyes, he saw that Lin Hu laughed arrogantly: "Lin also crawled out of the pile of dead people on the battlefield, and he really doesn't care much about broken corpses or anything!" ”
Zhao Yan also suddenly realized when he heard this, he had forgotten that Lin Hu and these people had all come down from the battlefield, and they had seen more dead people than those officials. Wang Chao's eyes also lit up at this time, and he saluted Lin Hu at the moment: "This will trouble General Lin!" ”
"Lin Hu, take a few more people down together, and when you go back, this king will be rewarded!" Zhao Yan also said at this time, although Lin Hu and they are not afraid of the dead, but the bottom is dirty and smelly, and they have to find something in the pile of broken corpses, which is naturally a chore, so Zhao Yan did not say it.
"Thank you, King Jun!" Lin Hu also agreed when he heard this, picked a few of the most daring guards, and then followed the dynasty down to the secret passage, and after about two quarters of an hour, Lin Hu and they came up again, but at this time, there was an extra cloth bag in the hands of the dynasty, which exuded a rancid smell, and Lin Hu They were indeed much stronger than those officials, although their faces were a little unsightly, but at least no one spit it out, and it was estimated that they were still smoked by the smell.
I found the stomach and intestines I needed, and then I finally came to the house after receiving the notice, and immediately took the cloth bag and ran to other places to check, but after more than half an hour, I came to report it: "Qi Yu catches the head, the villain finds the residual food in the stomach of the dead body, and then feeds it to a dog, but the dog quickly becomes drowsy, so those dead people should have eaten food mixed with drugs, and lost the ability to resist, before being killed by the murderer and broken into pieces!" ”
"Whew~. The reason why there are no traces of a fight in the temple has finally been solved. Wang Dynasty sighed when he heard the words, solving the case is like this, it needs to be solved one by one, and sometimes it takes a long time to figure out the entire case.
Next, the dynasty asked the officials to continue the search, and he took Zhao Yan and Su Shi to another cleaner meditation room, and then Zhao Yan asked, "Dynasty." Now that we have figured out the cause of the monks' deaths, what should we do next? ”
Hearing Zhao Yan's question, he saw that Wang Chao smiled bitterly and said: "King Jun, although the exact number of deaths cannot be counted by those broken corpses in the sewer, it is definitely around sixty or seventy people. ”
When it comes to this. I saw that Wang Dynasty paused for a moment and then sighed and said: "But I am not very optimistic about this case, after all, the methods of these perpetrators are clean and neat, and they are also very cruel, they have not left any useful clues at all, and we can't even confirm the identity of the deceased, so there is no way to find out at all, I am afraid that this case can only become a headless case in the end." ”
"How can this work? I don't know if I'm alive or dead now, and if it becomes a headless case. What if it's empty? Su Shi asked anxiously at this time, as a close friend of Kong, he is also very worried about Kong's life and death now.
"It's probably not dead!" Zhao Yan suddenly said to Su Shi at this time.
"I also think the same as the county king, and even think that the reason why the murderer broke the corpses of those monks is so that we can't guess the life and death of Master Kong!" The dynasty also agreed at this time.
"Why are you so sure?" Su Shi didn't want to understand something.
"Guess!" Zhao Yan immediately replied, in fact, he was more of an intuition. If he were asked to give a reason, he would not be able to tell.
In contrast, Wang Chao explained at this time: "Although I have no evidence, I have some inferences that more than 70 monks in the Xiangji Temple were killed. The murderer can't have a grudge against every monk, the only possibility is to target one or several monks, the others are just implicated, Master Kong, as the host of the temple, is likely to be the main target of the murderer, and there is also a secret passage in his meditation room, although we don't know what this secret path is for, but it has been built a long time ago, and it is likely to be built by Master Kong, so that the suspicion of Master Kong is even greater. ”
When he said this, Wang Chao paused for a moment and then said: "According to my speculation above, Master Kong is likely to be the main target of the murderer, but the other party does not want to kill him, but for some purpose, he doesn't want people to know the life and death of Master Kong, so those monks become the other party's broken corpses to confuse us, of course, it is also possible that the monks in the temple know something, so they are all killed, and by the way, they are chopped up to confuse our judgment." ”
"I understand, if the other party just wants to kill Sora, first, there is no need to kill all the monks, and second, even if they are killed, there is no need to chop them again, this qiē is to cover up the truth of Sora's life and death!" Su Shi's eyes finally lit up at this time and he spoke.
"Can't be too happy, the above is just the speculation of the dynasty, maybe there is a second possibility, that is, Sora is dead, and it is in the pile of minced meat below, as for the reason why the murderer did this, only he knows." Zhao Yan poured a basin of cold water on Su Shi at this time.
"The result that the king said is indeed possible, but presumably the king of the county is more inclined to my guess in his heart, right?" At this time, Wang Chao said with a smile, and at the same time secretly winked at Zhao Yan, and then looked at Su Shi with his eyes.
"Ahem, that's true, in comparison, it's still the dynasty your reasoning is more convincing, if the other party just wants to kill Sora, there is really no need to do those superfluous things." Zhao Yan also immediately understood what the dynasty meant, and immediately spoke.
"Well, even though I said that, I still can't help but worry about Sora's life and death!" Su Shi didn't notice Zhao Yan and the dynasty's small movements, but sighed, and his face showed a worried look again.
Zhao Yan also sighed when he saw this, and immediately comforted Su Shi with a few words, and then persuaded him to go back first, it is enough to have himself here, if there is a new development in the case, someone will definitely be sent to inform him.
Su Shi also knew that it was useless for him to stay here, and he also saw that Zhao Yan and the dynasty seemed to be afraid of themselves, so it was inconvenient to say some things, so he no longer stayed here to get in the way, and immediately got up to say goodbye, Zhao Yan also sent him outside the temple gate, and watched his carriage leave before returning to the temple.
"Your Highness, judging from the modus operandi of these people, it is likely to be related to the Liao State spies who set fire to the palace last time, and even I think that Master Kong also has an unusual relationship with these people, otherwise those people would not be so aggressive." As soon as Zhao Yan came back, Wang Chao immediately spoke.
Wang Dynasty's words were actually Zhao Yan's speculation, but he still hesitated and said: "Now it is a bit too arbitrary to conclude that the murderer is related to the Liao State spies just by the modus operandi of the crime, and it is a ...... empty one."
When Zhao Yan said that when he was empty, his face also showed a complicated look, Li Kong is not only his friend, but also the person that Princess Bao'an likes, if he is really related to the Liao State spies, then this qiē is too terrible, and even Zhao Yan has suspected that Kong is close to himself and Princess Bao'an, does it also have other goals?
Thinking of the above, Zhao Yan didn't dare to think about it anymore, and solemnly instructed the dynasty at the moment: "Dynasty, you have to do your best to deal with this matter, and it is best to find the whereabouts of the void, so that the whole case can be revealed." ”
"Obedience!" When Wang Chao heard this, he immediately clasped his fists and saluted, but then he thought of something, hesitated for a moment and then said, "King Jun, I'm afraid this case is a little bad with the strength of our public gate alone, even if you add the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, it is also difficult to find any clues, and this matter may involve the spies of the Liao State, so I wonder if the King of the County can go to the Imperial City Division and ask them to provide some help?" ”
"That's right!" Zhao Yan also patted his head when he heard this, he was also confused just now, he actually forgot that the Imperial City Division was a secret agency, dealing with the Liao State spies was originally within the purview of the Imperial City Division, and the Imperial City Division also arranged a large number of eyeliner in the capital, and now that such a serious case has occurred in the capital, they should also be aware of it.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yan couldn't help but show joy on his face, and said to the dynasty at the moment: "Thank you for the reminder, I'll go to Lao Huang to ask, and in addition, you should also hurry up and try to find more clues!" ”
"Don't worry, the villain understands!" The dynasty also knew that Zhao Yan had a good relationship with Huang Wude, the big leader of the Imperial City Division, so he proposed this proposal, and now seeing Zhao Yan agree, he was also happy at the moment, to put it mildly, with the intervention of the Imperial City Division, even if this case could not be solved, he would not be punished too much.
Zhao Yan hurriedly walked out of the Xiangji Temple, got into the carriage and rushed to the imperial city, Huang Wude is the big leader of the Imperial City Division, but he generally does not stay in the Imperial City Division, and even the Imperial City Division Yamen is originally a disguise, and the real Imperial City Division has no fixed office location at all, and generally Huang Wude will stay in the palace, waiting for Zhao Shu's summons at any time, as for the information of the Imperial City Division, it is generally collected by several big leaders and sent to Huang Wude for processing.
Sure enough, Zhao Yan quickly found Huang Wude in a side hall outside Zhao Shu's palace, when he broke in, the other party was processing some information, and when he first saw someone breaking in, a trace of anger flashed on his face, after all, he was dealing with top-secret information, and no one could come in during the period, but when he saw that it was Zhao Yan who came in, he immediately showed a smile and said: "How come the king of the county has time to come to the old slave?"
