my wife is mulan

In the Rouran embassy, ​​Fa Sui and Ah knelt face to face.

Fa Sui took a sip of tea and asked, "Qilifa, is the person you sent reliable? Murdering the envoy, if you are found out about this, you may lose your head because of it!"

A smiled and said, "Master, don't worry, he is an assassin. I guess he has already left Chang'an with the gold!"

Chapter 823 Another Death

Fa Sui reminded Ah: "I think Lifa should be more cautious, think carefully about whether you have left anything behind, and try not to leave any clues that were found on your head!"

"Master, don't worry, the assassins who were contacted by followers from the beginning to the end, I have never shown up!"

Fa Sui felt a little relieved, "That's good, if anything goes wrong, just get rid of the follower who came forward!"

"Master reminded me right!"

In fact, no one is easy to eat. Lei Dashan, the official in charge of the case of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, is not an ordinary person. He was born in the Jianghu himself and is a master. The police also have their own unique skills and ways.

After checking the scene, reviewing the records of the policemen's inquiries of the nearby residents and the inspection of the corpses by the police, I came to a clear judgment. The murderer was locked on the assassin with a strong knife skill. The mastery of strength and speed can only be achieved by highly skilled assassins, and such people are rare in the Jianghu.

But it is not easy to catch people, why?How many assassins can easily expose their identities?The assassin who exposed his true identity will not be at large for a long time. Perhaps the assassin who assassinated the envoy of Kepantuo is not known at all.

In the punishment room, Lei Dashan frowned and said: "I don't believe that an assassin with such superb sword skills will not have a reputation. Look at the location of the knife, the shape and depth of the wound, this assassin is by no means the first time. Killing, he must have left traces, as long as people who have left traces, we have a chance to find out!"

The dozen or so elite detectives under him began to think hard, to see if they could find a case similar to this knife move from their previous experience.

After a while, a young scribe raised his hand timidly.

Lei Dashan looked at him, frowned and said, "Speak if you have something to say, and fart if you have something to say!"

"Boss Lei, I seem to have seen this kind of wound somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while!"

A policeman next to him couldn't help but scolded: "Then what are you talking about, what we want now are clues!"

Don't think that these people are just police officers, but they are not ordinary police officers. They are the police officers of the Ministry of Criminal Justice who are responsible for investigating major and important cases, especially cases involving murderers with high martial arts skills. The official rank is in the body, even if it is not as good as the county magistrate below, it is still higher than the officials below the county magistrate.

Lei Dashan said kindly: "Xiao Song, don't be nervous, think carefully about where you saw it!"

Song Ke closed his eyes, and after a few seconds he suddenly opened his eyes and ran outside. It didn't take long before he ran back with a large stack of files and put them on the table. He flipped through them quickly.

After turning over a cup of tea, he suddenly stopped and shouted: "I found it, I found it!"

"What? Really?" The policemen were all shocked. At first, they didn't believe that the assassin had ever committed a crime and could find it out in the files of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Everyone surrounded him.

"Boss Lei, everyone, look, this is a dossier from 20 years ago. At that time, it should be a case left by the Ministry of Criminal Justice of the State of Wei. There are six cases in total. The method of committing the crime is exactly the same. They all cut their throats and killed them. The cases are exactly the same! From the first case, it can be seen that the murderer should have killed someone for the first time at that time. His technique was unfamiliar and his knife skills were sluggish, but it was completely different from the second case. He seemed to kill people through the first case. After defeating my own heart, I have become more and more proficient in my techniques since then!"

"In these six cases, the murderer killed a total of 35 people, and in each case, there was one main target who was killed, and the others were killed incidentally. These six main targets all have one thing in common, they are all high-ranking officials. !The other dead were all followers and subordinates; of course, there is one thing in common in these six cases, all the dead have only one wound on their bodies, that is the throat, that is to say, this murderer has his own unique style of killing. Every cut must take a life, and the wound is in the same place!"

A policeman rubbed his chin, "I said why can't I think of such a person in Jianghu? I dare say that the case happened 20 years ago. At that time, we were only ten years old, and the oldest was only fifteen or sixteen years old." , I haven’t seen anything in the world at all, and I don’t know anything!”

Lei Dashan reprimanded these arresting officers: "Look, this is the benefit of reading more books. If it weren't for Xiao Song, we would still be catching people blind! You guys will also look through the old files when you have nothing to do. There are tens of thousands of cases that are old cases, it is still beneficial to look through more!"

A catcher said: "Boss Lei, even if we dig up the old files, we still can't find him. Chang'an now has at least 60 million people. Finding the murderer is like looking for a needle in a haystack. What's more, he may have left Chang'an." Now, where are we going to find him?"

Another person said: "Boss Lei, our time is very tight. Shengshan gave the criminal department ten days to solve the case, but Lord Shangshu only gave us seven days to solve the case, and Lord Shi Lang only gave us five days to solve the case. Now Two days have passed, if the case cannot be solved within the time limit, I'm afraid..."

Lei Dashan's heart skipped a beat, he knew the consequences of not being able to solve the case within the time limit, ranging from being dismissed from office to being exiled to the army. , there are sufficient reasons to question the guilt!

At this moment, a small headhunter ran in and shouted loudly: "Boss Lei, there is another murder case! The one who died this time is also an envoy, who seems to be an envoy from Bohe Kingdom!"

Lei Dashan stood up suddenly, "Where is it?"

"It's in the embassy area, the house arranged by Honglu Temple for the envoys of the Bohe Kingdom!"

Lei Dashan grabbed the waist knife on the table and walked out, "Leave two people on duty here, and the others follow me!"

The other arresters had a bad premonition. The death of a Kepantuo envoy had already caused them a lot of trouble. Now that another one died, the higher-ups must be furious. How could they explain to the higher-ups?

If the Bohe State envoy who died this time died of homicide at the same time, the murderer would be too courageous. You must know that the embassy area is heavily guarded, and there are special soldiers patrolling and standing guard inside and outside the area day and night. It is not so difficult for the patrol to sneak in and kill.

When Lei Dashan and others arrived at the embassy area, the officials of Honglu Temple were already waiting there. Watching the excitement here, two envoys died one after another. These envoys were all in a panic, feeling like their scalps were numb.

"Excuse me, let me go. The next official is Lei Dashan, a member of the criminal department, who is in charge of investigating the case of the murder of the Kepantuo envoy! I wonder who is in charge here?" Lei Dashan led the arresters to separate the crowd and shouted.

Li Ji beckoned to Lei Dashan, Lei Dashan saw that it was Li Ji, hurriedly walked over and bowed his fists to salute: "I pay my respects to Li Gong!"

"There's no need to be too polite. Now another one has died. I don't know if this case is related to the murder of Kepantuo's envoy, but this time the deceased is also an envoy, so I will send someone to come and see look!"

"Yes, the officer will conduct a site survey immediately!"

Lei Dashan agreed, and immediately took people into the scene to investigate, sent people to ask who reported the case, who first discovered the deceased, asked the neighbors left and right if they heard anything, etc., and recorded everything.

Wu took two moments to examine the corpse, and roughly judged the cause and time of death, while Lei Dashan led people to search for possible clues in the house.

"Boss Lei!" Wu Zuo shouted.

Lei Dashan heard the voice and hurried over.

Li Ji and the officials of Honglu Temple could only wait outside, while envoys from various countries and their entourages and guards gathered together to discuss.

After hearing Wu Zuo's judgment, Lei Dashan immediately sent people to the gate of the embassy area to ask the guards and the soldiers who were in charge of patrolling last night to find clues. traces of entry.

After more than an hour, the officials of Honglu Temple waited anxiously outside one by one. At this time, a middle-aged eunuch came over with two young eunuchs, followed by several soldiers from the Habayashi Army.

"Li Gong, someone is coming from the palace!" An official reminded Li Ji.

When Li Ji saw it, he hurriedly went up to him and cupped his hands: "Supervisor Wu, but does His Majesty have a will?"

Eunuch Wu raised his whisk and cupped his hands towards the palace: "Your Majesty, I heard that Bo He's envoys have suffered misfortune, so Honglu Temple Secretary Li Ji and the officials in charge of the case from the Ministry of Criminal Justice will go to the palace to report the case!"

"I obey the order!" Li Ji agreed, and quickly sent someone to call Lei Dashan over.

Lei Dashan hurried over and clasped his fists and said, "I don't know what orders Mr. Li has for you?"

"Leitou, how is the site investigation going?"

"The survey has almost been completed, now wait to inquire at the gate. The sentry guards and patrol brothers who were on duty last night are back!"

Li Ji said: "Your Majesty attaches great importance to this case, and sent someone to pass down an oral order for me to go to the palace with you to explain the case to the Holy Spirit!"

Lei Dashan did not dare to be negligent, and clasped his fists and said: "I never thought that a mere member of the lower official, Wailang, would have the opportunity to face the saint! Li Gong was a little later, and when the brother who had gone to inquire came back, the next official went with Li Gong immediately after hearing the report." !"

After a while, two policemen came back with a civil servant.

Lei Dashan asked: "How is the question? Are there any clues?"

One of the policemen shook his head: "No strangers entered last night, and all the envoys or their entourages recorded in the entry and exit register at the gate!"

At this time, a policeman ran over to report: "Leitou, we have a clue. Footprints were found under the wall in the southeast corner!"
