After going back and forth, there are not many people in the entire yamen.Fortunately, the people who investigated the casino earlier had returned, otherwise they would really have no one to use.

The investigation of the scene has been completed, and after questioning Song Wuya, the lord of the provincial government asked the yamen servant to bring the body back to the yamen.

Leaving the scene, the provincial government lord frowned and sighed uncontrollably.

"Hey! What a crime you have done! I have been an official here for many years, but there has never been such a murder case! Seeing that this official is about to retire and return home, such a thing happened." Province The mansion frowned and complained.

Song Wuya, who didn't think so at first, was startled when he heard his words: "Is your lord planning to retire and return home?"

"That's right! You see, I'm old, but not as good as your uncle. Now that I'm old and frail, my mind is no longer good. I resigned before I was confused. I won't be confused. It won’t be safe to have a late festival in the end!" The governor’s words from the bottom of his heart made people feel a burst of emotion.

Song Wuya nodded slightly, and didn't care too much about it. The three of them continued to walk forward.

There are not many people in the deserted streets in this city, and with these recent murders, the people in this city must be considered panic-stricken.Fortunately, none of the dead were ordinary people. Although the common people were terrified, they were not too worried.

The rich merchants in the city, Li and Huang's family, have already set up and down the white flags, and they can hear crying from a distance.

Both families lost a son. It is a great tragedy in this world for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person. What's more, the two died at the hands of others. The real culprit has not been found yet, so how can they not be in pain.

"My lord, this case is really too tricky. Whenever we find clues, they will be cut off after we find them. We are led by the other party, and we can't get rid of the other party's tricks at all. Who is the murderer now? , we still don't know. I'm really aggrieved to be played around by him like this!" Song Wuya sighed in front of the governor.

Just like him, the governor of the province at the side didn't have a good look on his face when he said that.

The case troubled them, but there was nothing they could do to solve it.Now, when they walk on this street, they don't even know what to be thankful for.

"Isn't it? Don't say that Mr. Song has said this. If Mr. Song hadn't been there, I'm afraid I would have gone crazy!" The governor couldn't help but sigh.

Song Wuya smiled wryly: "My lord, I think we should leave now. Wandering around like this is not an option. Your lord should go back to the government office to rest for the time being. Brother Bai and I will go back first. It's the inn. You see, it won't be long before it's time to eat!"

"Yes yes yes! Young Master Song, let's take it easy. If there is any new discovery, I will notify Young Master immediately." The provincial government lord understood what Song Wuya said, and left immediately.

Looking at the governor who was going away, Song Wuya turned his head to look at Bai Zhuo, and smiled slightly: "Finally, this guy has been sent away, and now we can do an important thing."

"Huh? Something important? What? Didn't you just say that the clues were broken again?" Bai Zhuo looked at Song Wuya suspiciously, knowing that there must be something wrong with Song Wuya's words, but she didn't know that Song Wuya What was found.

Song Wuya didn't say much, he walked forward with a smile, his eyes kept looking back and forth.The shops around here are very deserted, and there are not many customers at all.The provincial capital is a rather big city after all, Song Wuya looked around here and there.But Bai Zhuo couldn't see what he was going to do, this appearance was clearly just walking aimlessly.

Following behind him, Bai Zhuo looked around back and forth, as if he was looking for something, but he couldn't find anything. After all, he didn't know what Song Wuya was going to do.

"Brother Bai, don't look around for nothing. You don't know what I'm looking for, why don't you see if there are any suspicious people following us?" Song Wuya walked forward and reminded Bai Zhuo without looking back. .

The opponent can always walk in front of them and cut off their clues at the most critical moment.For such an obvious matter, it seemed that the other party had figured out the opportunity, but Song Wuya didn't believe that they could be so clever.Therefore, after a little thought, he guessed that the other party must be following them everywhere and knew their whereabouts very well, so he could judge whether they were exposed or not.

Bai Zhuo was shocked, looked around in panic, lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Wu Ya, what are you talking about? Could it be that someone is following us? Someone from Wuliang Sect?"

"Brother Bai, let you take a closer look, just look at it, why ask so many questions?" Song Wuya looked at the few pedestrians on the street, and he didn't know what kind of tricks those villains of Wuliangjiao had. , To be able to grasp their whereabouts all the time.Although there was no one around, he still didn't dare to be careless, for fear that their conversation would be overheard.

Bai Zhuo didn't ask much about Song Wuya's rigor.There are not many pedestrians on this street, and those who come and go don't pay much attention to them. If there is any suspicious behavior among these people, it is really impossible for Bai Zhuo to distinguish.

"Brother Wu Ya, why don't you tell me what you're looking for, and I'll keep an eye out for you." Bai Zhuo searched and searched but couldn't find anyone suspicious.

Song Wuya smiled slightly: "Let's go, brother Bai, you don't need to tell me, you will soon know what I'm looking for."

Bai Zhuo still didn't understand what Song Wuya meant, Song Wuya had already walked towards a shop on the street.

Chapter 281 Dagger

Chapter 281 Dagger

When Song Wuya stepped into the shop, no one came to greet him.The owner of the shop sat leisurely behind the counter drinking tea and reading a book, not worried about his sluggish business at all.

"The shopkeeper!" Song Wuya had no choice but to greet him.

Hearing someone, the shopkeeper hurriedly put down the tea and book, and picked it up from behind the counter.

"What does this young man want?" The shopkeeper is not someone who doesn't do business when he sees it. It's really because the business is not good and he can't see anyone for a whole day, so he doesn't care so much.

Song Wuya looked at the shopkeeper with a smile on his face, pointed to the things around him and said, "My brothers and I are away from home, and we are worried that the world will not be peaceful, so we want to buy a sharp weapon for self-defense."

"Oh! So that's how it is. Come, come, two gentlemen, please come this way." The shopkeeper said and brought Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo to a counter inside. "You two, please take a look. There are all kinds of swords here. They are all custom-made in the most famous blacksmith shop in the city. The quality is high. Coupled with the meticulous carvings in the small shop, the appearance is beautiful and decent. It is definitely the best choice."

"Tsk tsk, what the boss said is really not nonsense. I can tell that your things are good things, but the two of us are not strong people, and these swords are a bit too big." Song Wuya didn't speak bluntly. Need a dagger, but slowly look at it, let the shop owner take the initiative to recommend it to him.

Sure enough, the shop owner clapped his hands together and slapped: "Look at my stupid eyes, the two gentlemen are clearly educated, reasonable, and personable, and I recommend this kind of thing to you, it is really damned. Please, sir Come here and have a look, I also have a short and exquisite self-defense dagger here, you will definitely appreciate it. This thing is easy to carry and can be hidden on the body, and it will not make the two young masters feel heavy."

Sure enough, it was for business. With Song Wuya's point, he understood Song Wuya's intentions.Song Wuya followed to the showcase, on which were placed daggers of various lengths and lengths.These daggers are beautifully crafted, which makes people like it just by looking at them, but Song Wuya didn't really come here to buy daggers, but to find daggers.

"Tsk tsk! Such an exquisitely crafted dagger must be worth a lot of money, right?" Song Wuya looked around carefully, but he didn't find the one he was looking for.

"My lord, the small shop has good quality and low price. These are not expensive, not expensive." The shop owner knew that Song Wuya might not buy much after hearing Song Wuya's words, so he hurriedly explained.

"Boss, don't look at the glamorous clothes we wear, but we are not from rich families. We really don't have much money, so you can recommend some cheap ones." Song Wuya politely rejected the boss's kindness, and asked him Ask for cheaper ones.

Song Wuya's actions made Bai Zhuo, who came in after him, understand.Song Wuya came here for the dagger, and the only reason he bought the dagger, without Song Wuya's reminder, Bai Zhuo could also think of it, was naturally the murder weapon in these murder cases.

A lot of disappointment flashed in the boss's eyes, but he still said with a smile on his face: "I understand, I understand. Since the young master has said so, then you can take a look at this."

Speaking of which, the boss opened a drawer under the cabinet, pointed to the pile of daggers inside and said, "To tell you the truth, this is the cheapest dagger in our shop. The workmanship of this thing is good, but there are no other good-looking ones." , but the ones with small quality can give you a guarantee, absolutely no problem.”

Song Wuya didn't listen to what the shopkeeper said. At this moment, his eyes were all on the dagger in the drawer.I have to say that his luck today is really good. After entering a shop so casually, he found what he was looking for.

"Shopkeeper, since this item is so cheap, is there really no problem with the quality? In recent days, has anyone else bought it besides us?"

Song Wuya's questioning naturally made the shopkeeper very dissatisfied.He immediately shook his head with a straight face: "Young master, I don't like to listen to your petty words. We are not setting up a stall on the ground, and we are earning a single-handed business. We are a well-known shop, and we are talking about a The font size, a signboard. The small one just explained it to you. Don’t look at this thing as not very eye-catching, but the quality is absolutely guaranteed. If you think there is a problem, you come and smash the small signboard, and I will never stop you .To be honest, you don’t need this thing usually. It’s for self-defense, but there are so many villains for you to guard against. To put it bluntly, you may not need it after you buy it, so the guests are more or less It’s for good looks. As for whether anyone bought these things? Hehe, then you’re asking the right time, a few days ago, there was a man who bought a few.”

Hearing this, it is on the right track.Song Wuya wanted to hear this, and immediately apologized and explained: "Shopkeeper, look at what you said. I'm not very old, and I don't know much about words. I didn't question you just now. When the words came to his lips, Tulu didn’t stop him from coming out. You said that a man bought a few of these things a few days ago? Then he took a fancy to this thing at the time?”

"So that's the case, it's okay. It's okay to talk about that guy. I still remember it vividly now. It was dusk at that time, it was getting dark, and my shop was about to turn on the lights. It was at this time that he came over. I just glanced at this place, and asked me if I had anything hidden. When I heard this, I thought that this guy is also a person who cares about face, and said that he couldn't afford these things I recommended this to him. At that time, he took out the dagger and took a look, and took five immediately. If he said he had no money, then he really missed his point, dropped a few taels of silver and left It’s more than enough to buy a few good ones with those silvers.” When the shopkeeper talked about that time, a smile appeared on his face, it can be seen that these few worthless daggers were sold for a high price. .

Now Song Wuya was even more sure, thinking in his mind: "There are five in all, so now there are three. The other two are probably still on him, I don't know if they will commit another murder."

After asking so many questions, the shopkeeper put away his smile, looked at the faces of Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo in surprise, and said hesitantly, "My lords, do you want this dagger?"

"Yes, of course." Song Wuya came to his senses, and hurriedly handed the handle to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, we are almost inseparable on weekdays, just use one." Song Wuya explained One sentence.

The shopkeeper didn't dislike the two of them because of this, and immediately nodded politely: "Okay! You are right, after all, this is a murderous thing, so it's not good to bring so many."

Seeing the shopkeeper skillfully wrap the dagger in cloth, he stood aside and beckoned Bai Zhuo to pay the money, but asked again: "Why did that man buy so many daggers?"

"Hey, how could this little one know! At that time, I was also surprised. I thought he was such a strong man, and he probably bought these daggers for self-defense. At that time, the little one couldn't hold back his curiosity, so he asked. He said, who knows, he yelled at me and asked me what to ask, threw down the silver and took the dagger and left." The shopkeeper said that he had wrapped the dagger, handed it to Bai Zhuo, and took it from Bai Zhuo's hand. Li took the silver.

Song Wuya didn't continue to question, bid farewell to the boss, and left the shop.

Walking to the street, Bai Zhuo stuffed the dagger into his arms: "Brother Wu Ya, it seems that the man who came to buy the dagger is very suspicious! Besides, he is a strong man, like the four people who died, none of them People can be his opponents."

"Hmm! This is true. Do you still remember my previous judgment?" Song Wuya nodded. He also thought so about the possibility of this person being the murderer. At the same time, he remembered the previous judgment in his mind. matter.

Bai Zhuo pondered for a while, and immediately said happily: "Could it be that this person is hiding in the Drunken Dream Building? Maybe it's one of those turtles?"
