Demon detective

Chapter 175

Xu Zhen checked the secret room carefully again, not missing any details.

Finally, he found an air hole in a certain roof part of the secret room, and there was still dripping tar in the air hole.

Oh……

Soon, he realized that if there were no air holes in such a small closed room, people would suffocate to death within a short time.

However, the person who dug this secret room had to hide his eyes and ears, so naturally he couldn't dig out a single air hole, otherwise it would be easy to expose.

Could it be that the outside of the cell boss Zhang Lin's room is connected to the prison cafeteria?This air hole is connected to the flue of the cafeteria?
If that's the case, is there... still hope?
"This is……"

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Sima Xin noticed something and immediately reminded Xu Zhen and Dongfang Meiyan to pay attention.

Xu Zhen quickly put down his thoughts and stepped forward to check.

But under the light, on the ground under Fang Wubing's right hand, he seemed to write a word with his fingertips.

Although the ground is all land, the blood character is still relatively clearly revealed.

That is a "Ji" character.

"Ji..."

Dongfang Meiyan had already seen it, but she naturally couldn't figure it out, and muttered to herself: "What does this word represent? Why don't you write more?"

"It's okay, God of the East," Sima Xin urged, "Fang Wubing is still alive, as long as we save him, we'll know everything about it?"

"That's right," Dongfang Meiyan glanced at Xu Zhen, and then said to Sima Xin, "I gave him the Golden Yuan Pill, which should save his life, but... I think..."

"You're right," who knows, Xu Zhen continued without waiting for Dongfang Meiyan to finish, "We'd better declare to the outside world that Fang Wubing has died, and even Lord Sima's subordinates should not let them know."

"Smart." Dongfang Meiyan glanced at Xu Zhen again, but there was only one point of appreciation in her eyes, and the other nine points were all playful, which made Xu Zhen feel like she was being targeted by a pervert.

Ok!

Xu Zhen hurriedly reminded himself that from now on, he could no longer show his talent in front of this goddess catcher!otherwise……

"Understood," Sima Xin nodded and said, "then let's carry it out like a dead body, and then I will prepare a room in this prison to treat him."

"I finally understand now..." Dongfang Meiyan pouted, "Why did the God Detective Division send me here! Little brother, do you want to know why?"

"This..." Xu Zhen wanted to pretend to be stupid, but such a question really hurt his self-esteem, so he said, "For today's operation, the other party did not hesitate to instigate many prison guards one after another, and spent a lot of effort to dig into the prison. Going out of the secret room obviously has a lot of background!"

"I'm really liking you more and more." Dongfang Meiyan smiled, her eyes were fascinating but deeply fearful, "If the other party is really a lawless lunatic, then just rob the prison generously, Why do you have to make such a complicated little move? This shows that..."

"..." Xu Zhen guessed the answer naturally, but it felt inappropriate to say it from him.

"Ah?" However, Sima Xin came to his senses and was taken aback immediately, "This...was done by an insider? Someone from the imperial court? Why?"

"Obviously," Xu Zhen was able to speak this time, "this matter is related to the batch of things Fang Wubing and the others stole from Wanfeng Bank six years ago!"

"You..." Dongfang Meiyan looked at Xu Zhen without any scruples, and said bluntly, "Come and follow me! I think you have a bright future!"

Depend on……

Originally, Xu Zhen thought that everything was still under control.

It wasn't until Dongfang Meiyan uttered such an abrupt sentence that he realized that the situation might have gotten out of control.

Xu Zhen felt that Dongfang Meiyan came to investigate the case not only because of the escalation of the case, it was very possible that Dongfang Meiyan knew more secrets.

broken……

Xu Zhen felt more and more bad. He seemed to have fallen into a political vortex unintentionally.

"No problem!" Unexpectedly, Sima Xin followed suit and immediately said, "This Xu Butou is a non-staff member, and he came here to save his uncle!"

"Save uncle..." Dongfang Meiyan chuckled, "It sounds like a tongue twister."

"That..." Xu Zhen hurriedly cupped his hands and said politely, "Thanks to the love of the Eastern God, but Xu Zhen is a policeman from Yanping County, following your words..."

"It's okay," Dongfang Meiyan said with a smile, "It's just a temporary transfer. If you do well, stay here. If you don't do well, then go back. You have nothing to lose."

"..." Xu Zhen was speechless, always feeling that this woman was implying something, did the so-called "well done" really mean solving the case?

why?
I'm obviously an old driver, why did I look like a rookie when I got into this woman's hands?Is it because I don't know martial arts?

Not long after, the three acted according to the plan, declaring that Fang Wubing and the mysterious old man were both killed, but in fact they secretly hid Fang Wubing in a certain room.

However, an accident happened again, and someone quickly recognized that this mysterious old man was actually the cook of their county yamen prison!

This is a real hammer!
Xu Zhen immediately went around to the outside of the dormitory, and sure enough, he saw the outside of the cell leader Zhang Lin's room, which happened to be connected to the prison kitchen.

In this way, Xu Zhen's hanging heart was slightly relieved.

If the guess is right, the cook should use his spare time to dig a secret room under the kitchen floor.

He calculated early in the morning that the secret room was connected to Zhang Lin's room, and after digging, he only left an exit in Zhang Lin's room.

What a painstaking effort!
Xu Zhen speculated that this cook should be a high-ranking member of the traitors. He led so many subordinates to lurk in the prison for so long in order to keep Fang Wubing alone in that secret room.

Obviously, in the secret room, the cook Fang Wubing brutally interrogated Fang Wubing, but was accidentally killed by the violent Fang Wubing, and both of them almost died together.

So... what does this cook want to know from Fang Wubing?

Xu Zhen frowned, feeling even more that there might be a huge secret hidden behind Fang Wubing's case.

After Xu Zhen finished checking, Fang Wubing had been protected by Sima Xin.

At the same time, news came from Sima Xin's subordinates that they searched the mouths of other jailers, including Zhang Lin, but found no poison in their mouths, not even a single missing tooth.

Seeing this situation, Dongfang Meiyan gave Xu Zhen a gouging look with that indescribably provocative look.

Xu Zhen's analysis was good. These spies were strictly hierarchical, and only low-level back-up personnel could take poison.

Senior personnel, still hidden among these jailers...
