Daqing Criminal Division

On the Songyang side, because of this state case, another unprovoked public case hidden behind it was unreasonably drawn out.

just hundreds of miles away,

Outside the prison of the state capital, four or five soldiers in gray-blue official uniforms were half dozing at the door of the execution room with a stick of water and fire in the middle of the night.

The moon is as cool as water, and a few mosquitoes that look vaguely floating in the air.

In the prison, which was dirty, smelly and dark from the ground to the roof, there was no light on all sides.

In the middle of the night, a fat middle-aged man with shackles on his hands was dozing tiredly in the prison.He was dressed in a prison uniform, and he looked a bit embarrassed, because of the prison disaster, he had lost a lot of his fatness, and his braids were messily placed on his shoulders.

This person is Yang Qingbing, the shopkeeper who was detained for the crime of smuggling 'Chen Tea', also known as 'Ma Bandit', that day.

In the past two days, because of his imprisonment, he suffered some punishments in the yamen, and he also suffered physically and mentally.

During the period, he finally let go, and explained some of the transactions he usually made on the road, such as the direction of the bill transactions and flow transactions between the various smugglers, all of which were covered by the state. The yamen of the government was taken away.

At the other end of the yamen, it was only assumed that he had confessed all the truth.

In addition, with Yang Qingbing's appearance, he really didn't have any criminal records in the past, and he seemed to have entered this industry by chance, so this time he took the half-pack of "Chen Tea"'s source evidence and those running lists to continue. I traced down.

However, the state capital didn't know that when he was arrested this time, he secretly left something behind.

It is this move that is the key to determining whether Yang Qingbing's life can really be saved in this prison.

Although he has been deeply imprisoned for the past few days, he has been anxiously waiting all day long, not waiting for anything else, but a force that has been waiting in the dark for an opportunity.

This power was originally his backing for many years.

It is also a name that ordinary people dare not say at all, as long as it is revealed, the death will be a hundred times more miserable than falling into the government.

Even if Yang Qingbing has endless lives.

And betting the lives of the whole family, he would choose the former between being caught by the government and being caught by 'that group of people'.

Because, 'The Crowd' is a true bunch of desperadoes.

A group of ghosts who murder and set fire everywhere.

A group of evil spirits who eat people without blinking their eyes.

These words are bizarre and terrifying, but only a person like Yang Qingbing who knows some unusual secrets dares to keep them in his heart.

He understood very well that even the government, the imperial court, and even those dignitaries at the top may not be able to do anything about 'this group of people'.

For decades, they have no law, their hands can reach the sky, they can turn around and escape without a trace, and no one knows their details and existence at all—this is the best skill of 'this group of people' .

"pat-"

There was a faint sound outside the torture room.

The door of the cell was opened with a key and a lock, and it also woke up Yang Qingbing who was lying on the ground in the innermost cell. He looked like a timid, timid, dusty mouse Usually, at this moment, she was even more surprised and sat up.

It was also the sound of footsteps and conversations between the two people walking slowly from the end across the half wall, which made him prick up his ears.

"Go slowly, hey, I've been the head of this prison for many years, and it's not the first time that I've brought people in and out. Although the risk is greater, since you got out High price, I will accept the job of 'killing the white duck'."

"Even if this matter is exposed someday, no one will find us. Once the 'White Duck' dies, the people in the prison will be innocent, and they will be able to escape..."

The voice sounded familiar.

Not knowing whether his guess was right or not, Yang Qingbing unconsciously leaned against the cell wall, sweating coldly, and waited for a while, when he saw two black figures slowly approaching, and finally came out from the darkness.

One of them was the head chief of the state prison, and right now, he was throwing a white bag on the ground that obviously contained a large number of living creatures.

Also, across the cell fence that was next to paper lanterns.

There was another middle-aged man with a hooked nose and sunken eye sockets who arrived in prison only in the middle of the night.

Wearing a string of white jade bead curtains on her hands, her brows are a bit stern, and she is dressed in the style of a study brush, but she has a calm look that is used to seeing the chaotic world when walking at night.

On the back of his hand, there is a weird cyan tattoo.

On it is a green spider with a flower back.

The strange green spider tattoo reminded Yang Qingbing of something, his whole body was shaken, his hands and feet were weak, and he widened his eyes and dared not make a sound.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man who didn't look like a benevolent man only waved his hand to order the jailer to release the 'things' in the white bag.

It was also when this was released directly that Yang Qingbing watched a living person who was the same age as him and looked very similar in appearance, except for slightly different ears and mouth, and was thrown out in a daze.

This fat, innocent scapegoat who resembles him by five points must be the 'white duck' mentioned by the prison chief just now.

I heard that in the past, he was in the underworld Hongmen and his party.

There used to be a rule that was not passed on to the outside world, but before the death of some serious prisoners, a similar "white duck" was used to replace the prisoner for execution. Most of the "white ducks" had their tongues cut off and could not speak. For the dead ghost, no one knows.

Because this immoral business is to collect money and kill people.

Later, Taoists called this "slaughtering the white duck". Once the "white duck" died, the real culprit of the case was immediately acquitted. It was really a perfect escape from the shell.

Yang Qingbing understood this change immediately.

'Those people' really haven't given up on him, a pawn who is still worth using.

This time, he will definitely be able to get out of the prison and return to the prison alive.

So when facing the accomplice who came to rescue him, he didn't need to ask any more questions, he just hurried up and started talking to that person.

"The 'over there' already knew that you had fallen into the hands of the government this time. Fortunately, your mouth was strict enough. Only a small part of the 'hemp bandits' you kidnapped this time were actually found out, right?"

The villain leader asked like this.

He is not afraid of this state prison.

On the contrary, most of the people who broke into the empty door in the middle of the night took it for granted, they were truly lawless and powerful villains.

"Yes, yes, you guessed right. I hid all the real big goods in the original warehouse, and none of them leaked out."

Hearing this, Yang Qingbing gave a dry smile with joy on his face, and rubbed his hands with an uneasy expression as he spoke, and replied respectfully.

"Well done, you are worthy of 'walking the night'. No one in the official smuggling business is smarter than you guys. It's the same. The master is reluctant to let you die. You have many uses. This article You can't lose your life."

This "comment" really made people feel a little creepy, and Yang Qingbing, who was in a cold sweat, listened to the other party's question again without daring to breathe.

"Where did the two people who caused you to be caught by the government and still keep an eye on us come from?"

"I don't know about this, I just heard that two people came from other places to investigate the case, one is a half-blind guy, and the other is also an unremarkable man..."

"Two people? Where did they come from?"

"I heard it is, Songyang."

"Songyang?"

Such a small place as Songyang, which has never been heard of before, naturally cannot enter the eyes of people like them.

If it is the capital or Shuntian, they really need to pay attention to whether they are being targeted by someone, but this Songyang is really not like a place where a tiger can hide a dragon.

In addition, if you think about it carefully, Yang Qingbing was not arrested this time because of the 'Chen Tea' incident. Instead, he was detained by the prefectural government as if by mistake, and almost exposed their major affairs. This man didn't do much. thought about it.

After all, in this world, those who have the guts to ruin their good deeds will probably die underground before finishing drinking Meng Po soup.

It is expected that this will not hinder them from any major events.

That's how he suppressed this pen and pondered.

Outside the cell, the middle-aged man with a hooked nose, sunken eye sockets, and a pen-style attire stopped sullenly.

In this dark prison again, he stretched out his rather muscular hand, with a hand full of scars, into his half sleeve and rubbed it for a while before taking out an old coin with a red string in the middle. Spread it in the palm of your hand.

It looked impressively like an Arhat coin with clean corners rubbed with vegetable oil.

There are four characters of "Kangxi Tongbao" printed on the top.

It looked like some kind of weird sign, and it looked like some special identity certificate.

"Don't worry, Luohan's money is here."

"You are blessed by the god Buddha Arhat. This 'white duck' will replace you in this encounter, so that you can escape and continue to do what you should do all the way."

"Remember, what you said to me today, don't talk to the second one again."

"As for the two people you mentioned, they are just two passers-by. They accidentally entered the Qianjiang Youlong Mansion. They thought they really had the ability to break into the Dragon King Palace. Don't worry, nothing in this world can ruin our affairs. of."

"Even if there is, it's time to go see King Hades."

……

——Time turns, fifteen days later.

Songjiang Prefecture, Pingyang County.

rain.

The rainwater from last night accumulated under the wet and slippery river dam overnight.

The roof of one was dripping wet, and some dilapidated sedan chairs outside were being left beside a river. As for the empty sedan chairs, there was no one in them.

The sedan chair with the door open was facing the shore, and it was already filled with river water and sludge when it was pulled up from the bottom by the yamen servants.

There was no one inside, and there was no luggage left.

The bearer and the owner of the sedan chair also disappeared, as if everything else about the sedan chair disappeared overnight.

"What's the matter?" "I don't know, I'm afraid it has something to do with the previous incident..." "No way, someone disappeared again? What happened recently?"

Not far away, early in the morning, the people of Pingyang were discussing this matter in dialect.

There were many passers-by watching on the four walls and the dam in the distance, but trying to get closer, all the people around had been driven away by the government.

Under such an extremely weird situation, it is a little surprising what happened in this small place in Pingyang County.

Right now, inside and outside, surrounded by four or five people dressed as policemen are drawing evidence inside and outside the curtain.

For example, the last traces of this shoe, or fingernails and hair, will be collected by the government one by one, and in the outer circle surrounded by the government, there are three people walking towards here while talking.

"Fucha, Duan Xiao, thank you very much, I really troubled you two to come to Pingyang from Songyang today, by the way, why did you two come here separately when you are so far away, is it not possible to come over from Songyang?

These words were all said by the chubby Mr. Captain who was somewhat embarrassed and carried his trousers.

This Pingyang policeman was short and stocky, with a big face squeezed with soft flesh like a sharp and cheerful person, and his mouth was also sharp. When he was carrying his pair of boots in his hand, he struggled through the water.

The two people in front who rushed over early this morning had come to an end.

Right now, the two tall, thin and tall people who had already stepped to the side of the sedan chair, one in front of the other, were also looking down at the empty sedan chair dragged up by the officials from the river dam not far away.

The bottom of the dam is very wet, and it is very difficult to stand firm on the muddy riverbed.

Not to mention the on-site evidence collection.

These two people knew who they were without asking. When they heard what the Pingyang policeman said, they paused for a moment, and each of them evaded and answered.

"Excuse me, we don't know each other well, why did we come here together?"

This person said one sentence, as if deliberately asking each other a rhetorical question.

Pan Da, who was squatting by the river dam with them to watch the scene, was a little confused.

He immediately knelt down between the two of them, looked left and right, and then bluntly said something puzzled.

"Ah? Not familiar? But how did I hear that you two live together now, and you can see each other as long as you wave casually in the middle of the night?"

Fucharzi: "..."

Duan Xiao: "..."

This kind of thing, I want to know how heartbroken the two Mensao who deliberately pretended to be unfamiliar in front of people all day were exposed.

As a result, the Pingyang policeman was not finished yet, and then he said something like a big mouth.

Pan Er: "It's hard to say, it's because the rules of your Yamen in Songyang are different, you must be a partner you don't know well, so you can live together every day, and then you can see the right--"

Fucha Erji Duan Owl: "Enough!

Detective Pan Er, who was seriously analyzing the situation, was forcibly interrupted, still a little dazed.

But in the next second, the two people on the opposite side whose faces turned cold took action together to stop the Pingyang policeman from talking nonsense.

"I said hello, what are you two doing? It's against the law to attack the police without a reason——"

After such a fuss, the three of them couldn't take a good look at the scene.

It has been more than half a month since Chuzhou solved the second case, and these two people have been living in peace for a few days.

but.

——What, the best partner in the whole world.

These two people refused to accept this strange name at first sight.

Since the original property was only so big in total, and now it has been forcibly divided into two sites, so in fact, the two of them still don't see each other when they look up.

Fortunately, their personal habits basically do not overlap.

What they usually do, the two of them do their own things, so they don't interfere with each other. In addition, the conflicts accumulated in the previous prefectures are still vivid, and they don't seem to take the initiative to talk to each other.

Yes, there are only the most straightforward and simple rivalry and endless bickering, as well as the most simple and rude competitiveness between men.

Fuchaerzi thought Duan Xiao was very strange.

And it's strange that I haven't touched it before, so I won't feel it.

Logically speaking, he is just over the same age as himself, and he should at least have some preferences of ordinary men in terms of temperament.

But this man just walks on the road and never looks at women or men directly, and he doesn't have any bad hobbies of single men.

No gambling, no drinking, regular work and rest, very self-disciplined, except for the scar on his face, and he told himself that he is sick, he is basically in good health.

I usually don't write poems, read books and practice calligraphy at home every day like a sour literati.

But I can feel that the family is very well-educated, and it seems that he has never bothered about fame at all. It is more like an adult career-oriented family man who has a job and can do it with peace of mind.

There are only three of his daily hobbies.

His son went to the Yamen to work as an errand, and after the errand, he went back to his place of residence and didn't go anywhere. He was really a strange and terrible person.

For these words, Duan Xiao, who didn't want to comment on him at all, thought in his heart that he would return all the original words to this person named Fuchaerzi.

But because they are currently partners, they have to be together in everything, and everything has to be brought out for comparison.

Although this kind of thing, there is actually nothing to compare it with.

However, these two guys, whose brain circuits are quite similar to a certain extent, still developed a kind of competitiveness and comparison between opponents.

Yes, there is only the most straightforward and simple rivalry, and the most simple and rude competitiveness between men.

It is this competitive spirit.

Let the two of them completely admire each other and get along well.

The only thing he can be sure of in his heart is that one day he can make the other party completely defeated by himself and then convince them that their grievances and grievances will be forgotten.

It is also to return to the brand new case scene in front of me this time.

After a lot of tossing, these three people turned their gazes back to the empty sedan chair that had just been fished out of the river in front of them.

Because when they came here just now, Fucha Erji and Duan Xiao had already basically looked around the scene first.

This time, they took another look carefully.

As the Pingyang County government said, there is indeed no trace of evidence or footprints left here, as if the sedan chair really appeared here out of thin air, and the people inside never existed at all.

"Look, that's the one. An empty sedan chair was floating in the river in the early morning. It didn't find any corpses. We wanted to find you two, but we can't do it if we don't see people alive or dead. understand what happened..."

"We are now suspicious, or it is related to the previous two unsolved disappearance cases."

"But this time, we didn't receive reports from family members or strange blackmail letters in advance, so we don't know exactly how the sedan chair got into the river, and where did the people inside go..."

Having said that, Pan Er also showed a worried look on his face. This is the third case of disappearance in Pingyang County in the past three months.

The first two incidents had caused them a lot of trouble, but this one might have something to do with the empty sedan chair floating in the middle of the river not far away.

And speaking of what kind of trouble this Pingyang County Yamen encountered this time.

Then I have to talk about the first official report about the case, which happened to come from the first victim's description of the matter.

She felt herself beside her.

It seems that there is always an invisible, intangible, peeping and watching her from a place she doesn't know, day and night——

stalker.

The author has something to say: Our villain uncle may not have thought that the household registration books of these two people are indeed in the capital, and it happens that one is a tiger and the other is a dragon...
