Chapter 123 The Fire Suspects

?Chapter 123 Suspected Fire

After finally wasting a lot of strength, the two squeezed into the crowd, but saw that the inside had been sealed off by the yamen servants, and there were more than 20 corpses placed on the ground in front of the building.

"So many dead! It shouldn't be!" Song Wuya couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw so many dead people.

This was heard by the yamen servant in front of him, and the yamen servant snorted coldly and said, "Hmph! Where did you come from, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. This fire started after midnight, when people were sleeping, He inhaled a lot of smoke and dust, so it's no wonder he didn't die!"

Song Wuya didn't understand this truth.However, this is not an ordinary place. He looked at the yamen servant and said with a smile: "Brother, this place of fireworks is probably open all night. There must not be many people staying here. Most of them are He left early after finishing his work. It is because of this that it is strange that there is a fire here after midnight, and so many people have been burned to death."

The yamen servant was stunned for a moment, and was about to refute, but saw an official from the building come out frowning, and immediately stood up straight without daring to say anything else.

Song Wuya looked up and saw that he was a fourth-rank official, he was probably the magistrate of the capital.

"Come here! Take all these corpses back!" The magistrate shouted, and then greeted everyone: "Seal this place, no one can come near it!"

Those yamen servants took orders and immediately started to get busy, while the magistrate frowned and strode towards Song Wuya.

The yamen servant standing in front of Song Wuya immediately turned around and pushed the two of them back: "Quickly step back and make way for the magistrate!"

After being pushed and shoved like this, the two of them immediately leaned back, staggered a few steps, but were pushed forward by the crowd behind them, and the real person rushed forward, directly bumped away from the yamen servant, and ran to the place in a few steps. Come in front of the magistrate.

"Bold! How dare you trespass on the forbidden area of ​​the government! Someone come and take it for me!" The magistrate had just issued an order, and someone broke in directly. Isn't this obviously disrespectful to him?Immediately, he sternly scolded the servants around him.

When Song Wuya heard this, he was immediately startled. If he was caught in the prison, he didn't know when he would be released.They have important things to do when they come to the capital this time.

"My lord! We were just pushed in by someone, and there was absolutely no intention to offend." Song Wuya knelt down on one knee and said immediately.

Hearing this, the magistrate frowned, snorted angrily and waved his hands and said, "Hmph! The official will spare you once, and you should step back quickly!"

At this moment Song Wuya hurriedly got up and stepped back, but seeing so many corpses, he couldn't help asking: "My lord, did these people really die because of this fire?"

"Hmph! It's not because of the fire, what else could it be?" the prefect asked coldly.

Upon hearing this, Song Wuya hurriedly said again: "I feel that these people did not die in the fire, there may be other reasons."

After saying this, Song Wuya didn't want to cause trouble anymore, so he stepped back immediately.As soon as he retreated, the magistrate suddenly said anxiously: "Wait!"

Song Wuya was startled when he heard these words, and stopped in place.After the magistrate sized him up and down, he immediately rolled his eyes a few times and said in harmony: "Little brother, please wait a moment. Let's take a step to talk."

This time, the two of them were at a loss. Originally, Song Wuya was just asking a casual question, but he didn't expect to ask something.

After the magistrate said so, Song Wuya glanced at Bai Zhuo beside him, and had no choice but to follow.

Following the prefect, the two came to a restaurant.The magistrate directly found a private room on the second floor to sit down, and the shop waiter immediately came up to greet him respectfully.

After casually ordering a few dishes, the magistrate asked Song Wuya directly: "Little brother, I don't think you are very old, but just now you said that you don't think these dead people died in the fire, but are you guessing randomly?" ?”

When Bai Zhuo heard that the magistrate invited the two of them to dinner, it turned out that it was because of the fire.His nervousness was swept away immediately, and he said with a smile: "Master Zhifu doesn't know something, Brother Wu Ya is very smart. He said that, he definitely didn't just say it casually."

"Oh? Why don't you let me hear your opinion, little brother?" The magistrate immediately became interested when he heard this, poured wine for the two of them with a smile and asked.

Song Wuya hurriedly said: "Don't dare, it's just a little stupid opinion."

After a few words of modesty, Song Wuya finally expressed his speculation: "This brothel is different from other places. I heard that the fire started after midnight, but at that time the brothel was brightly lit. Even if you can't find the fire, you can How could so many people have been killed after fleeing the scene after the fire broke out?"

"Ha! I really didn't miss it. You are right, little brother. This is exactly what I am confused about."

No wonder the magistrate would keep Song Wuya because of a single sentence. He also saw the clues of the fire case, but he didn't have a clue. He just listened to Song Wuya's words and wondered if Song Wuya saw something, so Only then stayed to ask him.

After the magistrate said this, the smile on Bai Zhuo's face became even brighter.

"Hey! Lord Prefect, then you have found the right person. As long as Brother Wu Ya has a look at the corpse and the scene, he will definitely find some clues." Bai Zhuo said without holding back, and agreed on Song Wuya's behalf. up.

Song Wuya frowned, thinking that they didn't come here to handle cases, but to handle important matters.If this is agreed to, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time.

However, before Song Wuya could say anything.The magistrate immediately got up, bowed respectfully to Song Wuya and said, "This little brother has your name! If you can help me solve this case, I will definitely reward you a lot."

Originally, Song Wuya didn't want to agree to this matter.But what he didn't expect was that the magistrate in front of him, as a Beijing official, didn't have any official airs.To him, a young man he didn't know, he was still so respectful.This made him stunned all of a sudden, and he was a little embarrassed to refuse.

Immediately, he had no choice but to humbly say: "My lord loves you so much, I'm Song Wuya. However, I can do my best."

"Young Master Song is modest. No matter what, as long as you can help me, that's fine." The magistrate didn't have too high a requirement, but just wanted several people to help him solve the case.

The two of them just had something early in the morning, and it's not yet noon, so they really don't know what to eat at this time.Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo thought it was lunch and started eating and drinking regardless of the amount.

After the meal, the prefect directly brought the two of them to the scene.The place where the fire broke out was a brothel, but they haven't found the source of the fire yet.

Song Wuya asked directly: "Master Zhifu, can you take me to the kitchen to have a look?"

The prefect had already known about this place before, so he brought Song Wuya directly to the kitchen.Song Wuya looked here, but found no trace.

"This is not the source of the fire, it may be that the lights in the guest room caught fire." Song Wuya said and walked outside.

His eyes looked around, observing all the places on the fire scene.After half an hour, Song Wuya said with concentration: "Master Zhifu, I'm afraid this fire is not an accident, but caused by man."

"Oh?" The magistrate accompanied Song Wuya around the fire scene for half an hour, and he was already a little impatient, thinking that Song Wuya had nothing special about him, and the reason why he said that before was nothing more than wanting to be different Just ordinary people.But when he heard this, he immediately became surprised: "Young Master Song, what do you say?"

"I observed the fire site for half an hour, and found that there are eight fire points. Any fire, I'm afraid there is no such coincidence, and there is no other possibility except man-made." Song Wuya said own judgment.

The magistrate was overwhelmed with surprise immediately, and the gloom just now was swept away.This discovery was something he had never found before. With such a conclusion at this moment, the doubts in his heart were immediately resolved: "That's right! No wonder I feel that the death conditions of these people are very strange."

"My lord! What's wrong with the deceased's death?" After hearing this, Song Wuya immediately asked.

The magistrate didn't say it clearly, but directly invited the two to go to the government office: "Young Master Song, follow me to the government office. I think you will understand after seeing it with your own eyes."

Song Wuya nodded immediately.And Bai Zhuo at the side praised happily: "Master Zhifu, what I said is right?"

"That's right, that's right." The magistrate also responded again and again: "Mr. Song really has something extraordinary, and he is much better than the prefect."

Faced with such praise, Song Wuya was really ashamed, and said: "My lord is really absurd, but the young ones only have this talent. How can I compare to you, my lord? If I let you Taking care of things in the capital, I'm afraid the Holy Majesty would have already chopped off his head."

Everyone loves to hear such pleasant words, the magistrate praised Song Wuya, and Song Wuya also repaid him.The prefect immediately smiled like a flower, and he was even more impressed with Song Wuya.

Soon the three of them came to the morgue of the government office. Once they entered here, the burnt smell became even stronger.After all, more than 20 corpses emitted a smell at the same time, so one can imagine what it would be like.

Looking at the corpses placed here, Bai Zhuo immediately turned around and ran outside, vomiting uncontrollably.But Song Wuya didn't change his face, and followed the prefect into the house.

"Mr. Song, please take a look." The prefect didn't say much, but asked Song Wuya to check the corpse by himself.

Wu Zuo had already come to the side, seeing the magistrate showing such respect to Song Wuya, he was also very surprised, and he didn't know what the origin of this young master was.

Immediately he walked up to him, "Young master, these people's deaths are horrible, if you want to vomit, you should look outside."
