After the rebirth

Chapter 55 055 Murder Case

"Guest officer, guest officer!" Shi Niang stood outside Lianqing's room door, smiling brightly, with a silk handkerchief in her hand, but when she looked closely, the smile did not reach her eyes.

"Lian Qing hasn't seen any customers for a long time, you know that, and Lian Qing has always been a noble lady!"

"The Misty Rain Pavilion of the Nu family is now a double oiran, so the Nu family will arrange for them to accompany you!"

"Ten Niang, you know who I am, and you still want to stop me?" The middle-aged man, with a white face and black beard, was dressed in a brown brocade jacket, and looked at the bustard in front of him with a sneer.

"Guest officer, this rule must always be followed. You have been to Yanyu Pavilion before, and you know it!" Shi Niang laughed with her, but she snorted coldly in her heart: You are a pious soul, today is your death day!

"I knew it before, but I think the rules have probably changed today!" The middle-aged man sneered, "Dare you say that there is no one in Lianqing's room?"

"It's not like Lianqing doesn't have any companions/guests at ordinary times, right? I won't talk about the young master of the Hua family, but today...huh!"

"What are you talking about!" Ten Niang pretended to be a little dazed, and then waved the silk handkerchief in her hand, laughing, "There is really no one, I will give you Yuxianju today, I will call you Ming Yanhe Ming Jing is waiting for you."

Ten Niang held the middle-aged man's arm and was about to turn around and walk away. The next second, she saw him turn around abruptly and kicked the door open.

"Ah!" Ten Niang shouted in shock, "Master Shen, please!"

"Looking for death!" A figure rushed out from the inside, but it was not Lian Qing, but a man in disheveled clothes.

In the blink of an eye, the man was in front of her eyes, and Shi Niang shouted in horror: "No!"

"What..." The middle-aged man only had time to utter two words before he groaned, his eyes widened, and he fell on his back.

"Oh! Killed someone!" Shi Niang was dumbfounded, looking at the man with a fierce face, she came back to her senses and screamed in panic.

"Come quickly, report to the police!" Ten Niang shouted in panic as she turned around and was about to run away.

"Hmph!" The man squinted his eyes, snorted coldly, kicked Ten Niang down, and then rushed out of Yanyu Pavilion quickly.

"Shi Niang!" Lian Qing quickly walked out of the room, her face was extremely ugly, and together with the servant girl and others, she helped Shi Niang up.

"Report to the officer..." Ten Niang spat out blood, muttered something, and passed out.

Everyone in Misty Rain Pavilion suddenly exploded, who is this?so bold?

But it was because of an outdated and upright official who didn't even ask any questions, but killed him as soon as he met him?
"Where is the dead?" About two quarters of an hour later, the guards from the Weicheng Division arrived, looking at everyone coldly.

"My lord, upstairs." The servant of Yanyu Pavilion, accompanying the careful one, said tremblingly.

"It's really Shen Zhao!" The leader was Lin Cheng, who looked down at the corpse on the ground with a cold expression.

Shen Zhao, the left servant of the household department, from a third-rank official/position, died in a place like Yanyu Pavilion, it's really... ironic!
After a while, Lin Cheng squatted down, inspecting the corpse with dark eyes.

"Whose room is this?" Lin Cheng looked up at the open door and asked in a deep voice.

"Go back to my lord, it's my slave's house." Lian Qing returned nervously and flustered, her pretty face paler and paler.

"Tell me exactly what happened." Lin Cheng stood up and looked at the person in front of him.

He also knew this person. According to rumors, the young master of the Hua family raised a young man in Yanyu Pavilion.

"An hour ago, there was a guest officer who insisted on letting my family accompany you." Lian Qing squeezed the silk handkerchief in her hand nervously, and said tremblingly.

"Originally, Shi Niang didn't agree, but the guest actually used force. Shi Niang was afraid that things would get worse, so she let the slave family..."

"I don't know how this guest officer found out, but he also insisted on having a drink with me." Lian Qing said, her tone trembling even more.

"Shi Niang couldn't stop it. At that time, the servant was threatened by that person not to make a sound. Who knew that as soon as the door was kicked open, the man rushed to the door. When the servant heard Shi Niang's call, come out, this guest The officer is... already dead!"

"Shi Niang was also seriously injured by that man, and she is still in a coma!" After Lian Qing finished speaking, she couldn't stop crying.

"Go, check what she said." Lin Cheng looked at the weeping man with dark eyes, and ordered the people behind him in a deep voice.

"Yes." The subordinates of the Weicheng Division immediately responded, and turned to check.

"Do you remember that person's appearance?" Lin Cheng gritted his teeth and spoke again.

"Eh..." Lian Qing was startled, looked up and saw that he was looking at her, bit her lips, nodded, "I remember."

"He has a scar between his eyebrows and a beard. By the way, my lord, that man's fingers, his index finger is one section shorter than normal." Lian Qing wiped her tears, recalling, and then let out a low cry.

"It's him?" Lin Cheng was taken aback, the answer was unexpected!

"You...do you know each other?" Lian Qing was startled, trembling, and asked nervously.

Lin Cheng took another deep look at her, but didn't answer her.

"My lord, I have already asked most of the people, and she is telling the truth." After a while, when Lin Cheng asked someone to carry the body away, the people who went to investigate also came back to report.

"En." Lin Cheng responded, and scanned the surroundings, "Let's go."

"Fingerless Thief Zhen Thirteen." Back in the Weicheng Division, Lin Cheng gathered his men, then sat on the first seat and fell into deep thought. After a long while, he spoke in a cold tone.

"My lord, Zhen Shisan has always robbed the rich and donated to the poor. I haven't heard that he has killed anyone?" Someone asked suspiciously, and the others also looked at each other in blank dismay.

"He killed." Lin Cheng shook his head, "It was the first time he killed someone in order to gain fame."

"Although that person is only a county magistrate, in theory, he really deserves death."

"My lord means, is there something wrong with Shen Zhao?" Someone asked hesitantly after thinking about it.

"It's certain that he has problems. With Zhen Shisan's current reputation, if there are no special circumstances, he probably wouldn't kill him right away?" Lin Cheng frowned.

"Back then, he let go and only killed people who deserved to die. After that, he really didn't kill anyone again."

"Yes." The person standing next to him responded in a low voice, "Every time he makes a move, he will release the crimes of the robbed person, so that no one reports the crime, but this time..."

"You throw people out overnight to see if he is in the capital. In addition, send people to seal the four gates of the capital. If he is in the capital, then invite him to come back and ask questions!" Lin Cheng said in a slow tone, After speaking, he waved his hand to signal the crowd to disperse.

"My lord, this case..." The person beside him stayed behind and said with a embarrassed face.

"This case...heh!" Lin Cheng leaned on his forehead and sneered, "Old Wei, you have to keep an eye on those bastards. If you leak a word, I'm afraid there will be a big storm."

"My lord?!" exclaimed, and the people on the side looked at Lin Cheng with a cold face in horror.

"Old Wei, hurry up and make arrangements, I have to think again." Lin Cheng sighed, got up and left.
