Chapter 303: Dark clouds are emerging
Meng Wei and the others also nodded after hearing this. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Hua Shen said, "I have also heard similar rumors in the rivers and lakes, saying that the Dark Cloud Sect only kills traitors and does not kill Zhongliang, so it is difficult for them to check that person's background before they take on the task? ”
Zhao Quyou said, "I'm a killer, a killer is a killer, will he kill if he has money to earn?" Those words are all to put gold on his own face. ”
Meng Wei also said, "That's right, these people are neither a martial arts sect nor an official organization, they are evil demons who kill people indiscriminately, we should communicate with the factory guards after we go back, and let them take action to exterminate them." ”
Qin Shuhuai was noncommittal to Meng Wei's words, and asked Hua Shen instead, "Lao Hua, you ask again and see if you can ask for any information." ”
Finding out the intelligence of the Dark Cloud Sect was originally something that an intelligence department should do, and although Qin Shuhuai had not handed over the White Lotus Sect to Hua Shen now, he had already regarded him as the head of the intelligence department, so he really wanted to see how he did it.
Hua Shen thought for a while and said to Cheng Feng, "Then after you entered the Dark Cloud Sect, you have received a total of several missions, who are you killing?"
Cheng Feng recalled very seriously, "The first time was to kill a salt merchant surnamed Wang, and then he killed several tea merchants, cloth merchants, and jewelers one after another. ”
Hua Shen frowned and said to himself, "In other words, you mainly kill merchants, scholars, and officials?"
Cheng Feng thought for a while and said, "The most businessmen are killed, probably because there are many disputes between merchants. The second is the scholar and the official. However, the level of my participation is not high, and the high-level estimates have all invited good hands to protect the hospital, and they must be the inner door killers. ”
"You killed the imperial court officials, and the people from the factory guard didn't come to investigate?"
"I will definitely come to investigate! including the local government will also investigate. But every time we kill someone, we have a detailed plan, and sometimes we disguise it as the other party's suicide, accident, etc., so the government can't find out at all. ”
Hua Shen sneered, "Isn't there a single one? ”
Cheng Feng said with certainty, "I really never missed." If you miss, all the people involved in the mission will be killed by the sect. ”
Hua Shen groaned and said to Qin Shuhuai, "Now it seems that the Dark Cloud Sect has two possibilities. One is that there is a backer behind him, and all cases can be pressed. The other is that this sect is extremely cruel, but anyone who may be arrested will be killed in advance, so the government cannot pursue it. ”
"Which one do you think is more likely?" Qin Shuhuai asked.
"Both exist. If they can suppress the case, they will let the backer press it, and if they can't press it, they will directly kill all the participants. These two are indispensable, otherwise it would never have been possible to commit so many cases and not be exposed together. ”
Qin Shuhuai bowed slightly, and was quite satisfied with Hua Shen's analysis.
"Then what do you think, can you find out the big financier and big backer behind this Dark Cloud Sect?" Qin Shuhuai asked again.
Hua Shen smiled, "Brother Qin, you want to test me, why is it difficult to find out the black hand behind them?"
Lao Dao was curious, "Oh, Lao Hua has a way? ”
Hua Shen said, "Since the Dark Cloud Sect itself can't make ends meet, then there must be someone who keeps it. Who would spend money to raise a group of idlers? Therefore, the person who spends the money will definitely let the Dark Cloud Sect do things for himself. Therefore, some of the people killed by the Dark Cloud Sect were normal business, but some of them must have been asked to do it by the financier behind them. If it is a normal task, then the background of the person who is killed should be different, after all, the client is different, the reason for the killing is also different, and the person who is killed will naturally not be the same. However, if it is the person behind the money who asked them to kill, their backgrounds must be similar, and the reason is simple, because they have all offended the same person. As long as you find this similarity, you should be able to deduce who the owner of the money is. ”
Qin Shuhuai nodded frequently when he heard this, and said with a smile, "Lao Hua, the analysis is very good. I have a hunch that this Dark Cloud Sect may be a big enemy of our Jianghe Gang, and when this case is done, we will stop by and investigate. Of course, you are still responsible. ”
Speaking of which, he already had a rough judgment on this Dark Cloud Sect in his heart.
Hua Shen smiled and said, "Gang Leader Qin is going to use me as a member of the Jianghe Gang?"
Qin Shuhuai said lightly, "Don't worry, I will definitely help you level it out in the Flower Shifting Palace." ”
"Then do you know where the Shifting Flower Palace is?" Hua Shen asked.
When Lao Dao heard this, he immediately came up and asked, "Yes, help master, have you found the Shifting Flower Palace?"
Qin Shuhuai chuckled, "Jiangnan Flower Valley, although it is a little remote, it can always be found. ”
There's a reason for his confidence. The Shifting Flower Palace is not a hidden sect, they rob all the peerless schools everywhere, and the disciples are frequently haunted on the rivers and lakes, and it is absolutely impossible that they have not left a trace. And he has two major helpers in Jiangnan, one is the White Lotus Sect, and the other is the Southern Beggar, the people of these two sects are all over Jiangnan, let them inquire about the location of the Shifting Flower Palace, and they will definitely be able to find out.
Hua Shen saw that Qin Shuhuai was confident, so he didn't ask any more questions, and said, "Okay, I'll investigate this matter to the end." ”
They sat on the ship for a day and two nights, and in the early morning of the third day, they arrived at Hangzhou.
The Cao gang thought very thoughtfully, and still transported them outside the dock in large boxes, and then said goodbye to them.
The group found a teahouse for breakfast, and then rushed to the Cao Bang Hangzhou rudder. The Hangzhou rudder is located by the West Lake, with beautiful scenery and a beautiful lake. Although the West Lake at the end of the Ming Dynasty was far from being as crowded with high-rise buildings and traffic as the West Lake in later generations, the houses by the West Lake were still not available to ordinary people.
The name was passed at the door, and not surprisingly, Wang Yunsheng, the helmsman of the rudder, quickly greeted him in person.
Needless to say, the guests and hosts greeted each other.
After entering the inner hall and taking a few sips of tea, Qin Shuhuai went straight to the point and asked Wang Yunsheng, "Lord Wang, don't hide it, we are here to inquire about someone with you." ”
Wang Yunsheng, like Zhang Qihuai, was in a very happy mood when he saw that Qin Shuhuai was not here to blackmail, so he said very happily, "Gang Master Qin, please speak, I must know everything below." ”
"There is a businessman surnamed Zhao in Ningbo Prefecture, who was originally from Yangzhou and did foreign business, and he returned to his hometown at the end of last year, do you have any impression of this person?"
Wang Yunsheng thought for a while and said, "What Gang Leader Qin is talking about is the old man Zhao Zhenshan? He has a son named Zhao Xinian, and he met him a while ago." ”
Qin Shuhuai was overjoyed and said, "It's him! Do you know where his son is now?"
