Chapter 892: Stare at the Brocade Uniform Guard to death

~8 min read 1,505 words

Chen Guanlou stood on the periphery, watching the case-handling personnel survey the scene, questioning the yamen runners and constables who arrived earliest.

He looked around, this is a typical three-no-man's-land, belonging to the junction of three counties, messy. People and animals live together, garbage is everywhere, and the smell is very big.

The people living in this place are mostly bottom-level personnel of the city, busy with their livelihood every day, and have no time or energy to pay attention to things other than themselves.

If it weren't for the children discovering the abnormality, I fear the corpse would have been discovered even later, or even possibly ruined by animals before being discovered. In the chaotic land, no one would specifically pay attention to the person 'sitting' under the jujube tree.

He jumped up, stepped on the roof, took a deep breath, and decisively amplified his five senses. Instantly, the nasal cavity was filled with complex smells, making people vomit. Among the various smells, he vaguely smelled the intermittent blood smell.

Without greeting anyone, he chased down the blood smell.

Chased all the way to the mass grave, the intermittent blood smell was covered by a heavier blood smell, and instantly lost the target.

Chen Guanlou closed his five senses tightly, only then avoiding being shocked by the smell of the mass grave to faint on the spot.

Really saw a ghost!

He anticipated everything, but didn't anticipate that chasing to the end, it actually chased to the mass grave. That is to say, the corpse had appeared in the mass grave, and later was abandoned in the three-no-man's-land.

However...

This doesn't make sense!

This is too weird.

It seems like a pair of invisible big hands are teasing the major yamen.

He returned to the scene in a dejected manner, the scene was still busy, busy with household investigation. The residents around all had to be investigated once.

Sun Daoning saw him return, beckoned him to approach, and asked quietly: "What's the situation?"

"Chased to the mass grave, lost the target."

"Mass grave? Are you sure?" Sun Daoning was very surprised!

"One hundred percent sure! Very surprised, right? I am also very surprised. This matter is more complicated than I guessed, the water is deeper. Old Sun, don't drag me into this case, I have to withdraw as soon as possible."

"Withdraw what! You are a member of the Ministry of Justice, helping the Ministry of Justice handle the case, this is your duty!"

Bullshit duty.

Chen Guanlou didn't bird him, "My duty is written clearly, only responsible for guarding prisoners. After you catch the criminal, if it is locked in the Heavenly Prison, that is my responsibility. Now, I am purely watching the fun."

"Then you just watch more." Sun Daoning was not angry at all, following the pole of words.

"I say Old Sun, you have elite soldiers and strong generals under your hand, full of talents, why do you have to drag me and not let go. If you do this, it will attract criticism. It will be misunderstood by the people below, misunderstanding that you look down on them, which is not conducive to team unity."

Chen Guanlou can be said to be earnest, sincere, and without selfishness.

"What you said, this official knows. Right now, there is no other way, I am inclined to your case-handling ideas. Dealing with martial artists, the people under my hand are not enough to look at, still have to be you. You don't show up, if you really meet the murderer, you let them go to send heads? Can you bear it?"

Sun Daoning also has his own considerations. He is not just inclined, he completely believes Chen Guanlou's analysis.

"You let the people under your hand not show up, this case is led by the Brocade Uniform Guard. If you really meet the murderer, let the Brocade Uniform Guard charge to the front."

Chen Guanlou just wanted to be an absentee manager, he now doesn't even manage the specific affairs of the Heavenly Prison, all are ordered to the people below to do. Let him labor his heart and strength to share worries for Sun Daoning, moving his mouth is fine, let him catch the murderer, just three words: unwilling!

Catching the murderer, no matter how to brag, is ultimately a bitter and tiring job. Especially this case, involving martial artists, maybe even losing life!

Of course, he doesn't need to worry about losing his life.

But he can't avoid bitterness and tiredness!

Sun Daoning continued to play the emotional card, complaining, this case is being chased by the palace, everyone is not easy. Although led by the Brocade Uniform Guard, the attitude of the Brocade Uniform Guard today has been seen, completely can't be counted on. Ultimately, still have to rely on oneself.

"This official tells you the truth, the identity of the third corpse has just been confirmed, it is the grandson of that imperial clan noble. The news has been reported to the palace, without accident, next His Majesty will continue to exert pressure on us. The ten-day case-handling period will inevitably be shortened. Once the deadline arrives, the case is not solved, everyone will suffer."

"I don't know how to solve the case, why do you tell me these." Chen Guanlou spread his hands, expressing inability to help.

Sun Daoning has his own considerations, and he didn't really expect Chen Guanlou to solve the case, "I hope you can put aside the Heavenly Prison's errands these few days, secretly stare at the Brocade Uniform Guard, and protect the people of the Six Fan Gates. If you can secretly find clues to the murderer, report to me immediately."

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, "Are you really suspecting that the Brocade Uniform Guard has inside information that hasn't been revealed?"

"This official even suspects that the Brocade Uniform Guard has already found the identity of the murderer, just because of heavy resistance, they dare not speak out."

"Really?"

"Whether it is true or not depends on you. With your ability, secretly staring at the Brocade Uniform Guard, it should not be discovered. Whether this case can be solved on time depends on you."

"Don't count on me. I can help you secretly stare at the Brocade Uniform Guard. Whether it has effect, it's two things."

"Just stare at it." Sun Daoning felt relieved.

Working in the officialdom is digging holes for each other, calculating each other.

Expecting you are good, I am good, everyone is good, flower sedan chair people lifting people, dream! When there is nothing to do, you can do surface work. Now that something happens, it is absolutely dead friend not dead poor path.

Friend dares to calculate poor path, poor path dares to pit friend to death!

Big brother doesn't talk about second brother, both have similar virtues, similar lack of integrity and bottom line, just see whose luck is better, whose means are more ruthless.

Sun Daoning is very glad that there is a Chen Guanlou by his side. Not using this trump card on weekdays is because it is not needed. Now that it is used, he wants to see how the Brocade Uniform Guard will take the move.

Chen Guanlou returned to the Heavenly Prison.

The job of staring at the Brocade Uniform Guard is mainly at night. Things that cannot see the light are basically carried out at night.

"Why is the adult worried?" Medical Official Mu, while drinking tea, asked with concern casually.

"That case outside, how do you see it?"

"This old man only sits and watches. Adult don't be angry, that case outside, it's not our turn to worry. Young boys and girls missing, nothing more than a few situations. First, a big shot in a big family has a strange habit. Second, a martial artist has a strange habit. Third, a monk from outside is chanting scriptures!"

Chen Guanlou raised his eyebrows slightly, "May I ask Old Mu, which one are you inclined to?"

"This old man first excludes the monk from outside chanting scriptures. After all, this is the capital, under the feet of the Son of Heaven. So many yamen dispatched together, and can't catch anyone, obviously the monk from outside doesn't have this ability. This old man is more inclined to the first one, someone in a big family has developed a strange habit!"

"What kind of strange habit?"

"The strange habit of needing to drink blood to be satisfied."

"But you ignored that people in big families can completely spend money to buy people to solve the blood-drinking habit."

"The adult also ignored that buying too many, dying too many, will attract the attention of people around, which is harmful to the family reputation. Even if it is a big family, transporting corpses out every three days, hehe, the officialdom cannot just play deaf and dumb. Adult, you must know, this is the capital! Everything must follow the rules!" ===== CHAPTER 893 =====
