Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 207 Confirming that the deceased was an internal guard

"The murderer of several cases is the same person." Li Yuanfang said, "If it's not a ghost, I can't imagine what kind of person can commit crimes in so many places in a short period of time!"

"Brother Yuan Fang, I have to remind you once again, before the case is over, don't conclude that ghosts exist." Li Cunxi reminded him tirelessly, "Only by breaking the inherent concepts can we achieve a new transformation."

"But, this..." Li Yuanfang stammered and couldn't speak.

"I promise you, if there really is a ghost, I will let you kill it with your own sword!"

After Li Cunxi finished speaking, he walked around the crowd and picked up a knife on the ground.

"What is the name of this sword?"

You Huan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Looking back at the Night Walker."

Everyone couldn't help but turn to You Huan, ready to listen to You Huan's opinions.

"What kind of people usually use this kind of weapon?"

"They are usually masters of Qinggong and are used to acting at night."

"Why do you know?" Li Cunxi asked with a smile.

"Because many people in the Internal Guard use this weapon." You Huan said calmly.

Everyone's expressions froze.

Especially the Flying Dragon Master He Yun, his breathing was a little difficult. You Huan seemed to have a chain that locked his scapula and neck.

It was painful and extremely uncomfortable, but he didn't dare to say anything.

"Interesting, interesting." Li Cunxi clapped his hands. "Everyone here is using the Night Walker Knife, but there is a group of internal guards who use this kind of knife. What conclusion can we draw?"

You Huan had long been accustomed to this kind of scene, and said calmly: "If they are all internal guards, then the murderer is most likely the internal guards' mortal enemy."

"You are also an internal guard, leader of Youhuan Pavilion."

"As someone who eats your salary, I should share your worries! Even if my head is cut off, my will will not be broken! If the murderer really wants to kill all the internal guards, then I... am willing to rush to the front."

"That's very well said, very powerful," said Li Cunxi.

It was a misfortune for others to have such a person in the inner guard. If such a person really targeted a minister, the emperor only needed to say a word and he would massacre the minister and his entire house that night.

This is exactly the kind of people the Internal Security Force needs, but it seems like the Internal Security Force is not short of this kind of people now.

Several cabinet leaders of the Inner Guard Bureau who did not work seriously have already died, and the remaining cabinet leaders had a narrow escape from death after being promoted to grand cabinet leaders. As for You Huan, there is a fear that he will never be able to become a grand cabinet leader in this lifetime.

"I am only serving Your Majesty loyally," You Huan said.

As they were talking, the madman outside suddenly started making a noise. When everyone went out to take a look, they saw that the man's face had returned to normal and he was huddled in a corner shouting and yelling.

"Grandpa, he's fine now." A villager pointed at the madman.

"Master, his pass is found here." Another yamen runner came to assist.

Li Cunxi and Wu Yanhao looked at each other and ordered, "Brother Zeng Tai, find a house for him to live in. We will settle him down."

……

At night, it rained heavily.

It is really unbelievable that there is such heavy rain during the spring equinox.

In Princess Taiping's mansion, two figures were walking together, one was the national teacher Wang Zhiyuan, and the other was Xuguzi.

The two Taoists walked and chatted, raindrops slid down the corridor, and heavy rain poured down outside the pavilion. The call of summer came with spring, and the fine rain almost slanted down on the two men.

Xuguzi took two steps and suddenly asked, "How is the matter of eliminating the inner guards going?"

"Master, He Yun and his subordinates have already started, and I have also contacted a lot of anti-military forces. We are just waiting for all the informed internal guards to be eliminated, so that we can easily kill Your Majesty." Wang Zhiyuan said proudly.

"It seems that you have decided to apply the teacher's suggestion."

"That's right, Master. Your method is really effective. We have decided to use lightning to kill His Majesty."

"But, do you know that Li Cunxi has already found He Yun and asked He Yun to help him solve the case? If Li Cunxi finds out, I'm afraid our plan will be completely ruined."

"What does Master mean?"

"We need to act faster."

……

The night ended and the morning after the heavy rain came. The air was better than ever.

He Yun, who was about to leave quietly, was stopped by Li Cunxi. When they were resting in Enji Manor last night, they learned some information from Fang Gensheng and confirmed that the murderer was the Headless General.

At that time, Li Yuanfang also drew a phoenix-wing gilded borer and boots for Fang Gensheng to identify. Fang Gensheng recognized them and confirmed that they were the murderer's weapon and boots.

Now everything is going as planned. Li Yuanfang firmly believes that there is a ghost and is waiting for the day when he kills the headless general so that he can complete his transformation.

After all, I still have to thank He Yun very much.

Li Cunxi took He Yun's arm affectionately and invited He Yun to have breakfast together. Then he said to everyone:

"Many of our clues lead to the General Temple in Xilin. Why don't we go to the General Temple and take a look?"

"If it's a ghost, we should make preparations early, right?"

Wu Yanhao, who had already passed the gas, also said:

"We should go to the General Temple in Xilin to pay our respects, but I don't know if we can find any clues there."

Li Yuanfang made up his mind and said, "Even if we don't have any clues, we have to go and see what's going on there."

Everyone made up their minds, and after dinner they left Enji Manor together and headed for the General Temple in Xilin.

The General Temple in Xilin, which is dedicated to Yuwen Chengdu, has long been dilapidated and overgrown with weeds. As no one has held memorial services here for a long time, it has become desolate and dilapidated.

After clearing the weeds on the steps, everyone found the bloody eagle carved on the steps. Following the smell of blood in the air, Hu Jinghui and his guards found the head and left arm of a person in the empty tree.

Everything was going as planned. Li Cunxi said what he had already thought of: "This must be the ghost of Yuwen Chengdu, Brother Yuanfang, what you said may be true!"

Li Yuanfang was also startled and said in horror: "I killed so many people, their ghosts will not come to settle accounts with me?"

"Who knows, Brother Yuan Fang... I was just teasing you." Li Cunxi said, and found a cleaner place to sit down. "The case is full of doubts, there must be something wrong."

"Cunxi, is this a ghost?"

"I don't believe in ghosts, but if I want to get to the bottom of this case, I still have to go back to Jiangjiazhuang."

"The case cannot be investigated thoroughly, and my career is over." Zeng Taiton began to sigh.

After serving as a county magistrate for ten years, he finally became Di Renjie's apprentice and finally reaped his rewards. However, he did not expect that he would still be dismissed from office in the end.

"It will be fine. I, Li Cunxi, will never believe in ghosts. If there must be a ghost, then let him come to me, Li Cunxi."

After stretching his body, Li Cunxi stood up.

"Pack up and head to Luoyang."
