Eternal Sword

Chapter 35 If I'm not wrong
This yellow dog is certainly not very sociable, nor is he friendly to everyone.

Chen Tang knew this.

He believed that the captain of the police before him was also aware of this matter.

What the captain of the police just said was not a joke.

The other party has become suspicious!

But this person did not point it out, he just laughed it off.

Chen Tang naturally would not admit it voluntarily, and just smiled.

"Why did you ask me to adopt her?"

Chen Tang said: "You have seen the situation of my family. We are extremely poor and can only make ends meet to make ends meet."

Meng Liangyu smiled and said, "How much can a little girl like her eat? It's just a matter of having more bowls and chopsticks. She used to be a maid in someone else's house and knows how to serve people. If she comes to you, she can also help you with some work and take care of the old man in your family."

Then, Meng Liangyu turned around and looked at Zhiwei, and said, "You work pretty well, right?"

Hearing this, Zhiwei nodded quickly and said, "I can do everything, including washing clothes and cooking."

"So good."

The fat old man's voice came, complaining: "The family is in need of someone to cook. These days, my mouth is almost tasteless. Neither of you two younger generations can cook."

Chen Tang still didn't give in, and asked again: "Since a murder has occurred, this girl should be the key. It doesn't seem appropriate to leave her with me."

"The murder case is solved."

Meng Liangyu waved his hand and said casually.

"Oh?"

Chen Tang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't this happen last night? Has the case been closed?"

"Ah."

Meng Liangyu said: "This case is not complicated. The Evil Wolf Gang ran to someone else's house to steal. Their tracks were exposed and they committed murder. In the end, they were killed in return and died together with the two people in the host's house."

Upon hearing this, Constable Tiezhu behind him breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his friend next to him with some pride.

I was right, wasn't I? That's what happened.

Chen Tang pondered for a moment and said, "Since the case has been closed, it's okay for this little girl to stay in my house."

"Okay, that's fine, excuse me."

Meng Liangyu smiled, clasped his fists towards Chen Tang, then looked at the fat old man and Qing Mu, and said loudly: "Old man, please take care of your health. You are old now, so don't try to climb up the social ladder."

The fat old man's face turned red.

Damn, this little detective, hurry up, where is I?

If it were any other time, he wouldn't even bother to care.

Now that I want to accept Chen Tang as my disciple, I can't lose face.

The fat old man wondered whether he should teach the young constable a lesson and show off his skills in front of Chen Tang.

Qing Mu saw what the fat old man was thinking, laughed secretly, held his master's arm, and shook his head with a smile.

Meng Liangyu handed Zhiwei and the yellow dog to Chen Tang, then turned around and left with several constables without staying here.

Chen Tang looked at the backs of the people leaving, frowned slightly, and seemed to be thinking about something.

He was now a little confused about what the captain of the police was thinking.

This person has obviously seen the problem.

But he didn't point it out and handed Zhiwei to her.

And bluntly, the case is closed.

What does this person want to do?

Delay?

Keep them stable first, and then go back to the county government office to get help?

"Brother Atang, are you worried that Captain Meng will come to cause trouble?" Zhiwei seemed to see Chen Tang's worry and asked tentatively.

The fat old man said proudly: "It doesn't matter, even if all the people from the county government come to surround us, I can still take you away from Changze County!"

Originally, he was low-key and kept a low profile.

Ever since he intended to take Chen Tang as his apprentice, he has become a little impatient, looking for every opportunity to show off.

Chen Tang was still in deep thought and didn't pay attention to what the fat old man said.

Zhiwei said: "I don't think Captain Meng is that kind of person."

"Captain Meng?"

Chen Tang's heart moved, and he suddenly asked, "More than two months ago, after I was seriously injured, the captain of the police led people to confront the Black Water Gang. Was he him?" He had heard Mei Yingxue mention this once.

"Correct."

Zhiwei nodded quickly and said, "If it weren't for this, I might have been arrested."

"This guy is quite interesting."

Chen Tang thought to himself and started to chase after him.

Some things need to be asked in person before you can feel at ease.

"Captain Meng, please stay."

Chen Tang chased after him and called out softly.

Meng Liangyu seemed to have expected this scene a long time ago, and was not surprised at all. He just said hello to Tiezhu and the others, asked them to go first, and stayed to talk with Chen Tang alone.

Chen Tang said, "Captain Meng, thank you for your help today."

"fine."

Meng Liangyu waved his hands, not caring at all.

Chen Tang asked, "Captain Meng hasn't answered yet, why did you hand her over to me?"

"I don't feel comfortable leaving it to others."

Meng Liangyu smiled and said, "I may suffer a little following you, but at least I won't suffer. With your character, you will definitely not treat her badly."

After a pause, Meng Liangyu continued, "In fact, I have always been concerned about her affairs. That family abused her a lot, and not giving her food was a common occurrence."

"But she is just a maid after all, and I am a police chief of the imperial court. According to the laws of the Qian Kingdom, I have no reason to intervene, let alone abuse her, even if she was beaten to death."

"Fortunately, there is still the Jianghu, and there are still some Jianghu people with passionate blood."

Having said that, there is no need to say more, as both of them understand each other tacitly.

"Captain Meng, thank you very much."

Chen Tang bowed and clasped his hands, expressing his gratitude with the courtesy of the martial arts world.

Meng Liangyu also smiled and bowed in return.

Then, he came over and whispered mysteriously, "Brother Chen, if I'm not mistaken, the one who took action last night should be your uncle, right?"

"Uh……"

Chen Tang was speechless for a moment.

How do you say that?

"Ha ha!"

Seeing Chen Tang's strange expression, as if he was in a difficult situation, Meng Liangyu laughed and said, "In fact, this matter is not difficult to infer. There is a purple-green handprint on Li Tao's wrist, which shows that this person has a very high level of cultivation and great strength."

"If we limit the scope to your home, we can rule you out first. Secondly, your cousin is a delicate beauty, and her cultivation seems to be strong, but the handprint belongs to a man. So, there is only one answer left."

Chen Tang couldn't help but ask, "Why did you exclude me first?"

"Ugh."

Meng Liangyu patted Chen Tang on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Brother Chen, you are lucky to be alive. You can't do such a thing as killing people, not to mention that the person who died yesterday was a guardian of the Wolf Gang!"

"He was stabbed to death with one blow. Not to mention you, I might not be able to succeed if it was me."

"Hmm...that makes sense."

Chen Tang could only nod.

Meng Liangyu added: "If I'm not mistaken, the people who died in the Cui family a month ago were also killed by your two relatives."

"Uh……"

Chen Tang fell silent again.

This time, they guessed at least half right.

Meng Liangyu was somewhat proud and said, "Those two relatives of yours hid themselves very well, but not long after, I found out about them. But those people deserved to die, so I didn't continue investigating this matter."

"Brother Chen, the methods used by your two relatives are indeed very clever. I am ashamed of myself. But once they take action, they will leave clues. These clues can be hidden from others, but not from me."

"If you have the chance, please introduce me to them."

Actually, I'm not that familiar with them.

Chen Tang muttered to himself.

"If you have any problems in the future, just come to the county government office to find me."

Meng Liangyu said this and waved goodbye to Chen Tang.
