Chapter 41 Unusual

City Lord's Mansion.

The city lord Jin Dazhi was pacing back and forth in the living room with his hands behind his back. This period of time really made him very anxious. Ever since the eldest lady Jin Yuzhi's appearance was revealed, she had cried, made trouble, and hanged herself. The whole house could not be peaceful. Now It's not even possible to identify the murderer, let alone arrest him.

Although all the fingers were pointed at the old demon man and a young man who escaped from prison, they had been searching the whole city for several days and not even a single figure was seen. They must have slipped out of the city.

Jin Dazhi had been depressed all the time. He invited many worldly experts and famous doctors from inside and outside Jin'an City, but no one could cure the disfigurement on the eldest lady's face. Jin Dazhi could only look at the sky and sigh.

Just now, someone from the Prince's Palace in the North said that the eldest son of the Prince's Palace was killed last night, and the Prince asked him to send someone to investigate the case. Although Prince Li was demoted from the capital, he is still the emperor's uncle after all. , the victim of the struggle for imperial power, but the starved camel was bigger than the horse, so he had to take people there.

At this time, the housekeeper of the mansion came in and reported that Captain Jia of the city protection team was killed in Xianyue Tower last night. No one saw the murderer. It was like one wave after another. During this period, Jin'an City What happened?

"Steward, please immediately call the deputy city lord in charge of public security and take a few guards with me to go to the prince's mansion." Jin Dazhi ordered.

In the prince's mansion, Deputy City Lord Cao, who was in charge of public security, asked: "Has the young master made any enmity with anyone recently? Please tell me the details of the young master's situation in the past few days, otherwise I will not be able to judge who is the murderer."

The prince glanced at the housekeeper and said, "Please tell Deputy City Lord Cao the details of the young master's recent activities."

Butler Wei took a step forward and said: "Yesterday afternoon, the young master's entourage brought back a woman. The woman had been staying in the young master's room. Something happened in the evening, because the young master only left two attendants in the small building at that time. We stood guard in front of the door and no other guards were allowed to approach, so it was impossible for the guards in the mansion to know what happened at that time."

"Only today, when the maid in the kitchen was serving breakfast, did I find the young master and his two followers lying on the lawn below the small building. Only then did I know that the young master and his two followers had been killed. ."

"When we rushed to the young master's room, we found that the woman had disappeared. There were no obvious signs of a fight in the room, and the window was wide open. We guessed that the murderer pushed the young master from the window and off the lawn."

After Butler Wei finished speaking, he looked at Deputy City Lord Cao.

"Oh, does anyone know where that woman is from, what her surname is, and where she lives? Does anyone know?" Deputy City Lord Cao asked.

"This... because the person who brought this woman back to the house has died, we have no way of knowing her details. We don't even know her age and appearance." Butler Wei said truthfully.

"That's right, then it will be very difficult to catch the murderer." Deputy City Lord Cao said to Jin Dazhi.

The prince stood up and said angrily: "Whether it is difficult or not difficult, as the magistrates here, this is your duty. I don't care how you operate it. Anyway, you must catch the murderer and avenge my son. "

"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. There is indeed some unrest in Jin'an City recently. We will do our best to find the murderer." Jin Dazhi said to smooth things over.

"Finding the murderer, there is no trace at all, is easier said than done. The woman is nowhere to be found, and it is impossible for her to deal with three grown men by herself. It seems that it was her accomplice who did it." Deputy City Lord Cao said to himself thoughtfully.

road.

At this time, Captain Chen of the Prince's Mansion Guards, who was standing aside, covered his swollen face and interjected: "Deputy City Master Cao, I have a clue. Yesterday, the young master met a young man in front of the Hongxiufang gate in the city.

Attacked, I stepped forward to stop him regardless of my own safety, but was accidentally slapped by the young man. I happened to meet Captain Jia of the city protection team passing by, and took the boy into the city protection team."

Captain Chen concealed the ugly appearance of being beaten up by the young man and said that he was injured accidentally while protecting the young master.

Deputy City Lord Cao glanced at the captain with a scab on his nose. He expected that this guy must have been in a very embarrassed state yesterday. He was obviously beaten to the ground and rubbed like this, and it was said that he was injured accidentally.

"Can a young man have such skill? Last night, Captain Jia of the city guard was also mysteriously killed. This is a bit interesting."

Deputy City Lord Cao asked: "Where is that young man now?"

"Our young master locked him in the cell in the mansion." Captain Chen replied.

"Okay, take me to take a look right away."

With that said, Vice Captain Cao and two guards from the City Lord's Mansion followed Captain Chen and walked out of the hall.

The guard of a cell took out the key, opened two iron doors, and a group of people entered the cell.

The cell door was locked, and a young man was curled up on a haystack, shackled and handcuffed, soundly asleep.

This young man is Wei Yang. He sneaked back into the cell last night.

Deputy City Lord Cao saw that this place was heavily guarded, with several iron gates and shackles and handcuffs. It seemed that the suspicion of this young man in the murder cases last night should be eliminated.

"Let's go." Deputy City Lord Cao said, covering his mouth. Just as the group was about to turn around and go out, a guard from the City Lord's Mansion shouted: "Slow down."

"What's going on?" Deputy City Lord Cao asked.

"Report to the deputy city lord, this young man is the guy who once harassed the eldest lady and later escaped from the city lord's mansion with the demon old man." The guard pointed at Wei Yang and said.

Wei Yang never expected that the guards from the City Lord's Mansion would also come to the prison in the Prince's Mansion. This was something he never expected.

The reason why he returned to the cell was entirely because he would not be targeted by the government. This would be of great benefit to Aunt Lin and Qing Ning living in this city. He did not want to cause trouble to Aunt Lin and Qing Ning in their future lives.

.

"Wait, there is something like this." Deputy City Lord Cao stopped. He turned around and took another look at the young man sleeping on the haystack. He walked to the iron fence and shouted: "Hey, wake up."

The guard hit the iron rod with an iron rod and shouted loudly: "Wake up, you brat, you are still enjoying yourself here, you are looking for death."

Wei Yang opened his sleepy eyes and looked at the people in front of him, and asked vaguely: "What's the matter? What are you doing lying here without sleeping?"

Wei Yang deliberately pretended to be struggling and sat up, leaning against the wall and looking at the guard of the City Lord's Mansion. Of course he knew this guy. This guy once beat him up with a group of guards. This guy was the one who started.

One of the most ruthless people.

Deputy City Lord Cao did not see a trace of fear in Wei Yang's eyes. On the contrary, he looked calm and calm.
