Chapter 486 The Consequences of Going Against the Grain

After the two sides tore their faces apart, this identity and title were the broken window paper.

"Got it, we will erase the traces. We originally thought that Fu Songhua's confession in Lingxu City would be more convincing, but if you can't take him back, just kill him directly!"

This tone made Zhongsun Mou very unhappy, but he frowned and endured it.

"The special envoy found the residence of the surname Mai, and maybe he knows other clues."

"This person must die!" The man in the mirror said firmly.

...

When He Lingchuan appeared outside the county government, he had been craning his neck to stare at the official at the street corner and rushed in two steps at a time, shouting: "The special envoy is here!"

Everyone had returned to the county government long ago, but he was the first to leave and the last to arrive, with more than half an hour in between.

Even Lu Dutong arrived and was about to watch.

Seeing that he came alone, Zhongsun Mou stood up suddenly: "Where is the murderer!"

He also sent people to chase him, but lost him. I don't know what method the He surnamed used to counter-track, even the smell was blocked.

"Put it in a safe place." He Lingchuan walked in with his hands behind his back, "He was almost killed by the inspector in the wing room just now, I think the county jail is not safe either."

Zhongsun Mou sneered: "What are you thinking? Those water snakes are here to greet you."

Baisha County Magistrate also said dryly: "Special Envoy, don't you want to re-examine the case? How can you try the case when the prisoner hasn't shown up?"

After returning to the county government office, he was still scolded by the inspector.

This Mr. He was wandering outside for half an hour, and he was almost scolded for half an hour, so County Magistrate Tian was not without resentment at this moment.

He Lingchuan said lightly: "Oh, I tried it outside, he said that the county jail let people in to force him to collude with him."

County Magistrate Tian lost his voice: "What..."

Can you do whatever you want?

Zhongsun Mou sneered: "Does your private interrogation count?"

"You didn't?" He Lingchuan glanced at him, "Did you conduct an open trial when you tried Fu Songhua? Were there people watching? Let's take a step back, was Magistrate Tian there?"

When it comes to talking, he has never lost.

"Magistrate Tian, ​​were you there at the time?"

Magistrate Tian opened his mouth, but failed to speak, and felt very resentful:

You asked even though you knew he wasn't there!

"That means he wasn't there." He Lingchuan said as a matter of course, "Magistrate Tian, ​​Fu Songhua was first locked up in the county jail on the day he was arrested. Who was on duty in the jail at that time?"

Fu Songhua said, and heard a bunch of keys clashing.

Only the jailer on duty would make such a clanging sound. That guy was bribed.

"Ah, I'll ask someone to check, wait a minute."

After a while, the results came out:

The jailer on duty in the death row that day was called Pi Linhai. He was there from morning to evening, that is, he was there during the time when Fu Songhua was locked up in the jail.

But this person was not on duty today.

At this time, Magistrate Tian already knew what to do: "Go and call Pi Linhai over."

Pi Linhai's home is not far from the county government office, only two quarters of an hour away.

Soon, the sent out officials came back empty-handed and reported: "Pi Linhai is not at home. His wife said that he went out to buy wine half an hour ago and has not returned. We went to the place where he often bought wine and looked for him, but he was not there."

He Lingchuan closed his eyes and whispered: "I'm afraid he won't be found in the near future."

The other party was silencing him at the speed of light, and he was slightly frightened.

It took only half an hour for him to privately interrogate Fu Songhua, and the other party took advantage of this time to kill Pi Linhai.

Being able to circle Zhongsun Mou, such a proud inspector, to join the group is a great power.

Killing and silencing the witness in time is a quick reaction.

These opponents should not be underestimated.

Zhongsun Mou folded his arms and laughed at him: "You made us wait for a long time, and only caught such a useless clue?"

Although Fu Songhua was kidnapped by this guy, He had no way to prove the real mastermind.

There was not even a suspect to choose.

From this point alone, our side is already invincible!

Thinking of this, Zhongsun Mou felt much lighter. But He Xiao is like a maggot attached to their bones, and he will cause trouble sooner or later, so it is better to get rid of him quickly.

The most important thing is that as long as He Xiao dies, no one will pursue the so-called mastermind behind the scenes.

The original plan can be carried out with a slight revision.

We must cut the Gordian knot and can't drag it on!

"Why are you in a hurry? I'm not fighting alone." He Lingchuan said slowly, "The clues will come to me soon."

"By the way, since this case has been reopened, I want to see the evidence collected by Lord Zhongsun."

Zhongsun Mou said very straightforwardly: "You don't have enough authority." This guy is not even an official, he only has a temporary special envoy title, and he dares to touch his ideas?

He Lingchuan was not surprised: "Well, I'm new here, and I need a few days to collect evidence."

"You've been in Baisha for a few days, and you've been sightseeing. Now you dare to waste my time again?"

"Oh?" He Lingchuan was surprised, "So Lord Zhongsun cares about me so much? Then let me put it another way: whether you agree or not, Fu Songhua will be left with me. If you say you don't have time, just go back to Lingxu City by yourself."

What a joke, this guy dared to plot against Fu Songhua in front of him. If the prisoner went to the county jail, would there be any way to survive?

The real culprit behind the scenes sent people in to collude with the confession before, and it is very likely that he killed Fu Songhua in the same way.

"You!" Zhongsun Mou's anger welled up. He poked him in the air with his fingers for a long time, and then laughed angrily: "You are so good at what you do. Are you really afraid that Fushan Yue will not be able to protect you? He is nothing. Good thing, if I sell you back, you will only die!"

He was scolding the prince of Chiyan Kingdom. The county magistrate of Baishaqian looked at his nose and his heart, and did not dare to say a word.

"You don't have to worry about it." He Lingchuan received Fu Shanyue's letter and knew that the Chiyan Congress would support him, at least until this case was resolved. "By the way, let me tell you that we have gained a lot from staying in Zhitian Township. I have captured Mr. Mai's demon-hunting men. They have provided a lot of clues. In a few days, I will be able to find out the real culprit. Then..."

He chuckled twice, turned around and walked out without waiting for Zhongsun Mou to respond.

…

After He Lingchuan left the county government, Tiger followed from behind and said with admiration: "You are probably the first one since the founding of Chiyan who dares to call the inspector of Banlingxu City face to face and tell him to go back."

"Who doesn't want to do this?" He Lingchuan smiled and touched the tiger's head, "You don't want to?"

"I don't dare." Jiao Yu said honestly, "It's fun to contradict him for a while, but I'm afraid of settling the account later."

He has a family and business in Chiyan and cannot bear the blame from Lingxu City. Officials of the Chiyan Kingdom, big and small, are all like this. What everyone fears the most is just two words:

as a result of.

Can the person in front of me really bear such consequences?

"Aren't you worried about the thunderous wrath in Lingxu City?"

He Lingchuan laughed loudly: "I didn't point a finger at him, I just criticized him a few times, which is considered disrespectful at most. What crime can Lingxu City punish me for?"

Swearing is, to put it bluntly, just a battle of words.

Although he had an enmity with Zhongsun, he never hit him from the beginning to the end. It was a confrontation rather than a collision, and the nature was not that bad.

"Where's Fu Songhua?"

"I left him to assist in handling the case, which is also called meritorious service. He will eventually be returned to Lingxu City." He Lingchuan looked at him sideways and said, "I asked Fushan Yue. Strictly speaking, the Lingxu City inspector did not arrest him on the spot. The power of the officials of the Fan Demon Kingdom is to inform the Demon King from Lingxu City, and the Demon King will handle or defend such a procedure. Therefore, even if I detain Fu Songhua, Zhong Sunmou cannot immediately accuse me. "

He is not reckless either.

"Besides, do you think Zhong Sunmou's performance today doesn't seem to be anything fishy?"

Jiao Yu licked her nose: "It doesn't look like that."

When Fu Songhua suddenly changed his confession, normal officials would ask for the reason, but Zhong Sunmou wanted to pin this crime on him. The reason is really intriguing.

"Once the truth is found out, if Zhongsun Mou is not related to the person behind the scenes, then Lingxu City can only blame me for being disrespectful with my words. Lord Chiyan can help me get rid of this small crime; if Zhong Sun Mou is confirmed to be related to the real murderer behind the scenes, Conspiracy, then what I did was reasonable and legal, and I deserved credit. I didn't suffer in either aspect, so why am I afraid of him?" He had already thought clearly about the consequences.

"Uh." Jiao Yu thought for a while, and it seemed like this was the case.

Why did it become simpler once he broke down the pros and cons?

He Lingchuan seemed to see through what he was thinking, and said calmly: "You are too in awe of Lingxu City. Even a kid like Zhong Sunmou who has no military merit can show off his power in front of you, the lieutenant general."

Jiao Yu stretched out his sharp claws and unconsciously made a few hook marks on the ground.

He Lingchuan was not wrong at all. This is a despotic power that has been formed over many years. Even a strong and arrogant monster like it is subconsciously afraid of Lingxu City.

No wonder the prince wanted to rely on an outsider like him.

One man and one tiger walked more than a hundred feet eastward, and then they asked He Lingchuan: "Where are you going?"

"Looking for some new help." He Lingchuan smiled, "I am not familiar with the place, so I will be at a disadvantage."

Magistrate Bai Shaqian looks like a local snake, but in fact he is unreliable.

He had just finished fighting Zhongsun Mou, and he was in a pretty good mood. He walked along the street for several miles. The shop signs on the main street of Baishajing are also big and bright, and there are many high-end stores. Some even pile up ice behind the door, or turn on the ice circle to cool down the customers.

In the middle of summer in July, there is a cool breeze inside these stores, not to mention how comfortable they are.

Of course, wool comes from sheep, and the prices of goods in the store are much higher than those in Zhitian Township.

He Lingchuan also stopped to eat a large bowl of jelly on the way, but the tiger had no love for noodles and ordered a whole roast chicken as a snack, making a tooth sacrifice.

After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, He Lingchuan finally stopped in front of a large mansion and handed a greeting card to the concierge: "Please inform your master that the Crown Prince's special envoy is visiting."

This greeting card was not written by him, but was sent to him by the owner of this house.

The words "Prince's Special Envoy" are very deceptive.

So in less than thirty breaths, He Lingchuan was standing in the main hall of the house.
