Chapter 55: Mysterious Death? Just a Trick
Suddenly, Zhao Yun's voice rang out.
"Murder case? Isn't the matter in Qiongzhou handled by Mr. Wang Meng? Why are you asking me about it?"
Chu Yang was puzzled, obviously knowing that this murder case was not a simple one.
Hearing this, Zhao Yun said anxiously: "The main reason is that this person died in a strange way."
"Oh? How bizarre is that?"
Chu Yang was in a good mood. Wang Meng would usually talk for a long time about trivial matters, so the thing that made him shut up this time must be something serious.
"This man died in a busy street, in broad daylight, in full view of everyone, he suddenly fell to the ground and died!"
Zhao Yun lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing something. "The strangest thing is that the coroner did an autopsy and said that there was no scar on his body, and it didn't look like he was poisoned, but he was just... dead!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Chu Yang stroked his chin. This Qiongzhou Prefecture was truly full of hidden talents. Someone was killing someone in broad daylight without anyone noticing. Could he be the legendary peerless master?
Thinking of this,
Chu Yang immediately perked up. He was already bored to death, and this time he could use the excuse of investigating a case to get a good look at the details of these ninjas.
"Let's go and have a look!"
The murder scene was on the busiest street in Qiongzhou Prefecture, and was now surrounded by officers and soldiers.
Chu Yang, Zhao Yun and others finally squeezed into the crowd, only to see a male corpse lying on the ground. Judging from his clothes, he seemed to be the owner of a restaurant in the city.
"Your Highness, this is the deceased. His name is Qian Baiwan, and he is a well-known wealthy businessman in the city."
Wang Meng came forward and bowed.
"Qian Baiwan?" Chu Yang raised his eyebrows. "This name is quite auspicious. Why did it become a bad name?"
The corner of Wang Meng's mouth twitched. His Highness's words were too rude, but he was used to it, so he had to explain it with gritted teeth.
"Your Highness, according to eyewitnesses, Qian Baiwan was discussing business with someone and was chatting and laughing. Suddenly, his face changed, as if he saw something terrible, and then..."
"He died with foam coming out of his mouth and blood gushing out of his seven orifices?"
Chu Yang took over the conversation and gave a detailed description.
"Uh... not really."
Wang Meng wiped the sweat from his forehead. "He just suddenly fell to the ground and died. The coroner examined him and said that he seemed to be... scared to death."
"Scared to death?"
Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "Is there such a way to die in this world? Did he run into a ghost?"
"Your Highness, you are joking. There are no ghosts in this world..."
Wang Meng laughed dryly twice, but when he saw Chu Yang's face darken, he immediately fell silent.
"Why? Isn't what I said funny?"
Chu Yang glanced at him sideways with an unfriendly tone.
"No, no, no, what Your Highness said makes sense." Wang Meng was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly changed his words.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and take me to see where Qian Baiwan finally negotiated the deal."
Chu Yang waved his hand, signaling him to lead the way.
Wang Meng felt as if he had been granted amnesty, and quickly led Chu Yang and others to a teahouse.
"This is it. Qian Baiwan was discussing business with someone in the private room on the second floor."
Wang Meng pointed to a private room on the second floor of the teahouse and said.
Chu Yang looked up and saw that the windows of the private room on the second floor were closed, and there was nothing unusual to be seen from the outside.
"Let's go up and have a look."
Chu Yang took Zhao Yun and others up to the second floor and came to the door of the private room. Wang Meng walked forward and knocked gently on the door.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Is there anyone in there?"
However, there was no response from inside, only deathly silence.
Chu Yang frowned and kicked the door open.
"boom!"
The door opened, but the scene inside surprised Chu Yang and the others.
The private room was empty. The guests who were supposed to be here to discuss business had long since disappeared. Only a table full of snacks and a few pieces of paper scattered on the floor were left.
Chu Yang walked forward and picked up a piece of paper. There were some business terms written on it, but there was nothing unusual.
"Strange, what about people?"
Chu Yang looked around, his brows furrowed.
Zhao Yun walked to the window, reached out and touched the window frame, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the window was closed from the outside. It seems that the murderer escaped through the window after killing Qian Baiwan."
"Escape through the window?" Chu Yang walked to the window and looked out.
This private room is located on the second floor of the teahouse. Outside the window is a busy street with people coming and going, and it is very lively.
If the murderer escaped through the window, how did he manage to leave quietly in front of everyone?
Chu Yang was filled with doubts, and an inexplicable chill surged into his heart.
He vaguely felt that this murder case was not as simple as it seemed.
At the same time, he knew that these people were most likely ninjas from Japan.
"Interesting, it seems that the Japanese can't win head-on, so they resort to underhand tactics."
Chu Yang muttered to himself, thinking that it would be better to deal with this matter as soon as possible, otherwise when Chu Qi's 100,000 troops arrived, he would not have time to deal with it.
Thinking of this, he ordered: "Zhao Yun, ask Pan Feng to go to the big tent in the training ground."
"promise."
Zhao Yun took the order and left.
Chu Yang took Wang Meng to the big tent in the military camp.
Along the way, the soldiers on both sides were wearing bright armor and marching in unison, giving off a solemn and murderous atmosphere.
Chu Yang walked in front of the team and asked casually.
"Mr. Wang, how much do you know about the ninjas in Japan?"
Hearing this, Wang Meng slowed down his pace, turned slightly, and lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, I know a little bit about them. It is said that they are proficient in stealth assassination, appearing and disappearing mysteriously, and are very difficult to deal with. Your Highness, do you suspect that this murder was committed by Japanese ninjas?"
Chu Yang stopped, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and he turned to look at Wang Meng.
"Mr. Wang also knows about Japanese ninjas! There shouldn't be any Japanese assassins appearing in Qiongzhou City!"
Wang Meng's heart trembled, and he immediately understood something.
Yes, although Qiongzhou City is a mixed bag, if the Japanese infiltrate it, the military morale will surely be in chaos.
It would be better to eliminate these people in the name of suppressing bandits!
"Your Highness is wise, and it is I who am stupid."
Wang Meng quickly cupped his hands and asked, "Then how does Your Highness plan to deal with this matter? Do you want to order a city-wide search for these Japanese rats?"
Chu Yang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Wang. I haven't finished talking yet. When General Pan comes, what are you going to do?"
Wang Meng was stunned for a moment, then he suddenly realized.
Yes, General Pan Feng was famous for his bad temper, and he fought with the Japanese for many years for the people of Qiongzhou.
If he knew that there were Japanese ninjas causing trouble in the city, wouldn't he turn Qiongzhou City upside down?
Thinking of this, Wang Meng no longer concealed anything and said decisively.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. They are just a few petty thieves. When General Pan arrives, we will just send a large army to encircle and suppress them. They will not be able to escape even if they have wings!"
Chu Yang laughed loudly upon hearing this, with a hint of teasing in his voice: "Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang, you are being paranoid. When did I ever say that I would encircle and suppress them?"
Wang Meng was immediately confused and asked in confusion: "Your Highness, this..."
Chu Yang patted Wang Meng on the shoulder and spoke earnestly.
