Rebirth of the strongest catcher

Chapter 170 Could it be that the case is closed?

After Zhan Dabao left, Xing Shan looked around at the crowd, and his eyes fell on Zu Long. He passed the crowd, walked up to Zu Long, and bowed his hands to him, "Master Zu, can you tell me alone?"

Hearing his words, before Zu Long had time to respond, Zu Yiming followed and interjected, "Can't I know what you want to talk to my grandpa alone?"

He was joking, but when he saw that he had finished speaking, Xing Shan's expression changed instantly, and his expression instantly became awkward.

"Why, can I really not know?"

Hearing him asking twice in a row, Xing Shan coughed lightly, and explained: "Of course not, it's just that this matter is related to the Ministry of War. Young Master Zu, you have a bad temper. I'm afraid that speaking out will affect your mood."

"so……"

Zu Yiming frowned, although he felt that Xing Shan's explanation was a bit far-fetched, but out of trust in Xing Shan, he nodded, "Okay then, you can discuss it with my grandfather, if I don't listen gone."

Seeing that Xing Shan dismissed Zu Yiming with a few words, Zu Long's eyes sank, and he followed Xing Shan into the house.

There were only the two of them in the room, Zu Long said slowly, "I don't know what Xing Butou wants to say to the old man?"

Xing Shan smiled lightly, and cupped his hands to Zu Long, "The reason why I came here this time is naturally for the case of Miss Gui's disappearance. I would like to ask Grandpa Zu to show his respect and give Miss Gui a way out."

When these words came out, Zu Long's expression darkened instantly, "What do you mean by that, you want to imply that the Gui Yuetian case was directed and acted by our ancestors?"

Xing Shan withdrew his smile, and put his hands on his back indifferently, "Master Zu, you should know if the ancestors have done this. Maybe you can say that I have wronged you without evidence. But the emperor At your feet, no one is a fool, Mr. Zu should not regard the emperor as the late emperor's affection, and the last bit of affection for you will be wiped out."

"you?!"

Zu Long didn't expect Xing Shan's words to be so straightforward, and his face turned blue with anger. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

He looked at Xing Shan coldly, and said indifferently: "If you have evidence, you can report the matter to the Holy Majesty, and our ancestors are willing to bear any consequences. But if you don't, it's better not to talk nonsense in front of the old man, so as not to affect The old man's mood."

Xing Shan laughed, and there was a bit of sarcasm in his words, "Does Grandpa Zu think that as long as there is no evidence in Shuntian Mansion, this matter can be left alone? You killed Tu'er, so naturally you are not afraid to kill another Guiyue God, as long as the two of them are dead, there will be no proof of this matter. But have you ever thought that the Zhuo family and the imperial court will not be able to guess what Shuntian Mansion can guess? At the foot of the Son of Heaven, the ancestor family may be able to The mansion bestowed by the first emperor is domineering, but at the same time, this honor can be bestowed by the emperor, or it can be confiscated by the emperor."

Zu Long's face darkened, "Are you threatening me?"

Xing Shan quickly bowed his hands to him, "The villain dare not."

He straightened up, his eyes were very cold, "Grandpa Zu, you do so many things behind your back, just because you don't want Yiming to enter Shuntian Mansion. Otherwise, I assure you that Shuntian Mansion will never accept Zu Yiming." , I also ask Grandfather Zu to hold his hands high and let Gui Yuetian live."

Zu Long snorted coldly, but still said stubbornly: "I don't know what you're talking about, Gui Yuetian is alive or dead, how can I control you?"

Hearing his words, Xing Shan narrowed his eyes.

He has already talked about this point, but Zu Long still refuses to let go, it seems that Gui Yuetian may have been killed long ago.

The other party was sure that Shuntian Mansion could not find any evidence, so naturally he would not open his mouth to compromise.

Thinking of this, Xing Shan couldn't help clenching his fists, "There has never been a case in this world that Shuntian Mansion can't find. Since Grandpa Zu refuses to hand him over, then we Shuntian Mansion can only do our best to arrest the murderer."

Hearing his threat, Zu Long sneered, "It's a good one to go all out to arrest the murderer. I want to see how Xing Butou can help me find my granddaughter-in-law. If I can't find it, don't blame the old man for visiting your majesty." A copy of Shuntian Mansion, saying that you are not doing your job well!"

Hearing that he was threatening him in turn, Xing Shan had a funny face on his face, "Okay, then just go ahead and see if the Shuntian Mansion has such abilities!"

After saying this, Xing Shan threw away his hand and left the room angrily.

Seeing him walking out with a bad expression, Zu Yiming's expression was a little surprised, "What's the matter, Xing Butou, my grandfather said you?"

Before Xing Shan could reply, he immediately added, "Don't blame him, he is old and has a bad temper, but he has no malice towards you."

Hearing his words, Xing Shan glanced at Zu Yiming coldly, even if Zu Long had everything, at least Zu Yiming was indeed innocent in this matter.

As the grandson of Zulong, he was not only played by him, but even the bride he was marrying was killed by Zulong.

If you let him know, I am afraid it will be difficult to accept.

Thinking of this, Xing Shan sighed, his face softened, he reached out and patted Zu Yiming's shoulder, and comforted him: "It's okay, but we have to continue to find Miss Gui's whereabouts, so we won't stay at your ancestor's house any longer." gone."

Hearing this, Zu Yiming breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said, "Then I'll go look for it with you?"

"No need."

Xing Shan shook his head, "You can stay at your ancestor's house and wait for the news."

"But……"

Zu Yiming wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Xing Shan, "Now the murderer is so mad that he even killed Tu'er, I'm afraid you will be in danger if you walk around outside, and we will have to trouble the Shuntian Mansion to rescue you at that time." You. So, you should stay at home obediently and don't make trouble for us. "

Hearing this, Zu Yiming was startled, and finally nodded helplessly, "That's fine."

Seeing that he was willing to compromise, Xing Shan patted him on the shoulder in relief, and then left the ancestral home with Hu Buxi, Bu Yifan and others.

Seeing them coming out, Zhan Dabao immediately greeted them, "How about it, is there any clue from the ancestor's house?"

Xing Shan shook his head, motioning for him to go back and talk.

Everyone left the ancestral home quickly, and then returned to Shuntian Mansion together. Xing Shan recounted the conversation he had with Zu Long, and said annoyedly: "I blame me for being too impulsive. Not only did I not persuade the ancestral home to release him, but instead To scare the snake away."

"none of your business."

Hu Buxi comforted, "It was Dabao who leaked the word first, so you had to follow his words to test Grandpa Zu."

Hearing her words, Zhan Dabao shrank his neck, with a guilty conscience on his face, "I was so angry at the time, I accidentally slipped my mouth."

Bu Yifan sighed, "What should we do now? Is this case really let go?"

"Of course not!"

Xing Shan and Zhan Dabao said in unison.

The two looked at each other, and Xing Shan said again, "According to Grandpa Zu's words, we can basically conclude that Gui Yuetian has been killed, otherwise there is no need for him to be so tough."

"Yes."

Hu Buxi nodded slightly, fully agreeing with Xing Shan's statement.

"Grandpa Zu has been in the government and the opposition for so many years, and he must know how to weigh the pros and cons better than anyone else. Now that things have been revealed, my brother has already compromised, and he doesn't intend to pursue Tu'er's affairs, but he still refuses to let Miss Gui go. Come out, this shows that the other party is very likely to be killed like Tu'er."

"If Miss Gui is dead, where will they hide the body?"

Xing Shan sighed, "Given the status of the ancestor's family in the capital, since Zu Long intends to kill people, he must have already thought about how to deal with the corpse. If I'm not wrong, at this moment, Miss Gui, I'm afraid There are no bones left."

Hearing this, Bu Yifan nodded in agreement, "In martial arts, there have long been corpse powders that can be used to destroy corpses and traces. The materials for making corpse powders are not difficult to find. I think the ancestors might do the same. gone."

"then what should we do?"

This time even Hu Buxi had no idea, "The body is gone, there is no evidence to prove that this matter is related to the ancestor's family, can we really just be played around by that ancestor dragon?"

Seeing them at a loss, Xing Shan couldn't help laughing, "Actually, have you ever thought that we can build one when the evidence is gone?"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions froze in an instant, even Zhan Dabao, who always had the word "brave" in his head, was stunned on the spot.

"Falsified evidence? Isn't this a violation of the law?"

"Then do you have a better way?"

Xing Shan asked rhetorically: "What's more, we did this this time only to make Zu Long admit his crime, and did not wrong innocent people. I don't think there is anything wrong with doing this."

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and finally Hu Buxi nodded first.

"Brother is right. Since the ancestors have already destroyed the evidence, we can build one for him. If the ancestors really didn't do it, how could we wrong them so easily?"

When these words came out, Zhan Dabao gritted his teeth and agreed: "That's right, anyway, we only did this to bring the murderer to justice. Even if Miss Gui is alive, she will forgive us."

But Bu Yifan couldn't bear it anymore and said, "But how can you guarantee that your guess is definitely correct?"

Hearing what he said, everyone immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Up to now, everything about the ancestral family is indeed based on their guesswork.

Even with the conversation between Xing Shan and Zu Long, they dare not guarantee 100% that this matter is exactly as they imagined.

If it happens to be that small part of the possibility, how should they deal with themselves?

Seeing everyone's silence, Hu Buxi hesitated for a moment, and offered a suggestion to Xing Shan: "Otherwise, you can report this matter to your father and see if he has any suggestions?"

Hearing this, Zhan Dabao's eyes lit up, "That's right, that's right, the dignified Governor of Shuntian, he must be clearer than us, let him make this decision."

However, Xing Shan's complexion darkened, "You guys have such a good idea. When you encounter difficulties, you can find my father. If I'm not his son, but just one of the twenty head catchers, then you can rashly go to the government office." Master Yin, do you want him to help me solve this case?"

After saying this, everyone became silent again.

Bu Yifan's expression was a little awkward, "Xingbutou, don't be like this, they just don't want you to go the wrong way."

Hearing this, Xing Shan narrowed his eyes immediately, he knew that Bu Yifan was the person who most disapproved of his falsification of evidence.

But if possible, he also hopes that there are other ways to bring the murderer to justice.

Although he didn't dare to be 100% sure that the murderer must be Zulong, but judging from today's conversation, there is no 90.00% nine, but also 90.00% eight.

What's more, if the man behind the scenes is really not him, is he afraid of forged evidence?

He can have countless ways to prove his innocence.

But their Shuntian Mansion had only one way to prove their guilt by forging evidence.

Just when Xing Shan was feeling extremely tormented, Hu Buxi suddenly said leisurely, "Actually, even if we prove Zu Long's guilt, so what? Could it be that in his capacity, the emperor can make him subdue the law?"

When these words came out, everyone present was taken aback.

Yes, they thought about how to prove Zulong's guilt, but they never thought that no matter how they prove it, the result might be the same.

For the sake of the late emperor, it is impossible for the emperor to dispose of Zulong.

In this way, the forged evidence of Shuntian Mansion would embarrass the emperor instead.

After realizing this point, Xing Shan no longer insisted on falsifying evidence.

"Ah Xi is right, I was the one who overlooked this point."

Xing Shan sighed softly: "Even if I can prove that Zulong is guilty, so what, as he is, he is destined not to obey the law. This is probably one of the reasons why he can be so confident?"

Seeing his dejected look, Hu Buxi stroked his back and comforted him: "Actually, this is fine. Since we know that no matter what we do, the result will be the same, so why should we bother ourselves? Why don't we use this Report the matter to Mr. Fu Yin, and let this case be settled like this."

"No."

Xing Shan thought that he had accepted the task in the system, if nothing happened like this, his lightness skills would be for naught.

As a fast catcher, how could he not have light work?
This is a terrible thing, and you must not act hastily.

Seeing that he still refused to give up at this point, Zhan Dabao's expression suddenly felt a little helpless, "Then what should we do, should we continue to search like chickens without a head?"

Xing Shan lowered his eyes and pondered: "Actually... everything is just our guesswork. There is no evidence to prove that Gui Yuetian's body is gone. So, should we check it out before making a decision?"

Hearing this, although everyone's expressions were a little hesitant, they nodded one by one.

That's right, whether the corpse is still in this world is just their guess.

Maybe the ancestral family hadn't had time to dispose of the corpse yet.

Or, the ancestors kept Gui Yuetian's body in exchange for other bargaining chips?
Before things are confirmed, they really shouldn't think wildly, but should try their best to find them.
