My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

The screen returns to Anyi.

After Wei Cheng drank a cup of original milk tea, he walked around a few shops with his four daughters.

Just as he was about to find an excuse to leave, he suddenly saw a city guard running past the store in a hurry.

Wei Cheng immediately gave Xu Chu a wink and asked him to go and see what happened.

Xu Chu glanced around and felt that the rouge shop was not in any danger before he stepped away.

"Teng'er, are you alright?" Little aunt Wei Ning was also curious about what happened, the city guard team ran quite fast.

On the contrary, the eldest aunt Wei Min said with a smile: "What can happen, I'm afraid there are outsiders making troubles. These days are very common. Usually, it's small things like disputes caused by fighting for quotas of goods."

The eldest aunt Wei Min opened a cloth shop in the north of the city, specializing in the sale of cloth and silk spun from the satellite city.

She was not used to such things.

A few people looked at each other and smiled, if it was just making trouble with a blind eye, it would not be a big deal.

However, the development of things seems a little unexpected.

Xu Chu hadn't come back for quite a while, when a few people were waiting anxiously, a city guard ran over from the door of the store.

And this time the team members not only wore stab-proof suits, but also brought spears and other weapons.

Wei Cheng frowned, feeling that things were not that simple.

Finally, Xu Chu ran all the way back.

"My lord, a homicide happened in an alley in the south of the city. The deceased belonged to the former Taichang Ling's family... a total of nine members."

"what?!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Wei Cheng asked solemnly, "Has the murderer been caught?"

Xu Chu glanced at the four daughters of Wei Min.

Wei Cheng understood and walked with him to the door.

Xu Chu said softly: "I haven't caught them yet. The family who died lived in the deep alley. It was the peddler who went to deliver vegetables and found that something was wrong. After calling for a long time, no one answered the door. He leaned on the courtyard wall and looked in, only to find... er .”

Seeing that Xu Chu stopped in the middle of speaking, Wei Cheng looked back and saw the two aunts curiously poking their heads and eavesdropping.

Wei Cheng said angrily: "Aunts, let's go back first, there is a homicide in the city, before the murderer is caught, you'd better stay at home to be safer."

Wei Cheng looked at Liu He's master and servant, hesitated for a moment, and said: "You too, if you can, try not to go out, so as not to meet the murderer."

Liu Hexiu frowned, she knew her formerly too often, but she didn't expect a family of nine to die like this.

"Well, Mr. Wei, don't worry, we won't leave the small courtyard for half a step until the murderer is caught." Liu He responded with a salute.

The two aunts were not ignorant of the general situation. Seeing this, they responded one after another.

Wei Cheng nodded in satisfaction, and hailed two rickshaws at the door, letting them go back to Wei Mansion first.

After watching the four girls leave, he said in a deep voice, "Go, take me to the scene of the crime."

Xu Chu persuaded: "My lord, why don't you go, in case the murderer is still nearby..."

"It's okay, as I said, I have the power to protect myself."

Nine people died all at once, and they were still on their own territory. Wei Cheng felt that he had to go and take a look anyway, maybe he could find some clues and bring the murderer to justice.

Not long after, the two came to the south of the city in a rickshaw.

The alley where the murder occurred has been surrounded by city guards, and it is strictly forbidden for irrelevant people to approach.

Seeing Wei Cheng coming in person, the team leader hastily asked someone to come up to clear the way.

Wei Cheng looked back at a mansion in the alley.

If I remember correctly, this mansion seems to be Lu Bu's property in the city.

However, there should be no one living there now. Lu Ling moved to the hot spring villa in the east of the city, and there are probably only a few servants in the family.

Under the leadership of the team leader, the two arrived at the scene of the crime.

Walking into the courtyard gate, one could smell a pungent smell of blood, bypassing the screen wall, and suddenly found nine corpses lying on the ground.

The oldest one was estimated to be about 60 years old, while the youngest was only twelve or thirteen years old. He was a thick-headed boy, and he was completely cold at this time. There was a long bloodstain on his neck.

"According to eyewitnesses, two people visited the owner of this house last night at 35:[-] pm, and the two parties seemed very unhappy, especially this person..." The team leader pointed to a middle-aged man, [-]-[-].

"Witnesses said that he was talking to those two people at the door, spit on one of them, cursed and said a few words, then closed the door, and then the two left."

Wei Cheng nodded slightly, looked at the middle-aged man lying on the ground, and found that he had the most wounds among all the people, with seven or eight scars on his chest, and also on his abdomen... Judging from the shape, it should be caused by a sharp weapon such as a dagger.

Wei Cheng is not a professional forensic doctor, so he can't judge the specific cause of death. However, judging from the degree of victimization of the male host, it is obvious that the other party is killing to vent his anger.

"Where are the witnesses?"

"The murderer was vigilant for revenge, so we have secretly sent him to the guard, and asked an artist to draw a portrait based on his description."

Wei Cheng looked at the captain appreciatively, nodded and said, "Very well done."

The squad leader cupped his fists in a flattered salute.

Wei Cheng looked around, walked to a poplar tree with a thick calf in the southeast corner of the yard, pointed to the trunk and said, "This should be the murderer's footprints, and these marks on the courtyard wall."

When Xu Chu and the others heard the words, they came up one after another, and the team leader exclaimed: "Really, from the shape, the murderer probably stepped on the tree trunk with his right foot and the wall with his left foot, and just climbed out with both feet supported." of."

Wei Cheng gave an 'hmm' and ordered: "Send someone to look at the other side of the wall. The murderer probably left footprints on the other side."

The team leader clasped his fists in response, and immediately found two people to go out to check.

Sure enough, footprints were also found on the other side of the wall, and unlike in the yard, there were two different sets of footprints outside.

It is a pity that Wei Cheng is not a professional and cannot judge the height and weight of the murderer based on the footprints.

I also observed in the house, and found that except for a few broken dishes, there seemed to be no signs of being rummaged in other places in the house. done.

Just when Wei Cheng was at a loss.

A city guard ran in with two portraits.

"Captain... ask Young Master Ann, I have met Governor Xu."

The team leader hurriedly asked: "But the portrait has already been drawn?"

The team member nodded, and presented the portrait with both hands, and said at the same time: "The witness said that yesterday, when the owner of this house was cursing, he mentioned a name."

"Oh?"

The three of Wei Cheng looked at each other.

The team members didn't dare to show off, "He said that the master scolded him: Xu Fu, you are so poor, do you really think of yourself as a hero?"

The team members didn't know if they had a talent for acting, and their tone of voice sounded like an arrogant and domineering son.

"Are you sure it's Xu Fu?" The captain's eyes lit up.

Anyi County has strict controls on outsiders. Generally, outsiders will register their names for the first time they enter the city. Now that they know the name of the murderer, it is not far away to continue to catch the murderer.

The team members scratched their heads, "This, the witnesses are not sure, it may be Xu, Xu Fu, Xu Fu, Xu Fu...all possible."

The squad leader sighed helplessly when he heard the words. There shouldn't be too many people with these names. It seems that we have to find a needle in a haystack again.

However, to their surprise, Wei Cheng suddenly asked, "You mean the murderer might be called Xu Fu?"
