Chapter 45 Yu County
In fact, Song Heng didn't just think that he would support Su An today, and that Su An should be grateful to him in the future, but Su An's attitude still satisfied him very much.
A quarter of an hour later, Su An walked out of Song Heng's study. Although his face was calm, his heart was filled with shock.
The Datong Zhi actually asked him to go to Yu County to investigate the case.
In the past year, there were dozens of people killed in Yu County. If this news had not been revealed from the county magistrate Song Heng just now, Su An would not believe it.
Because he is an immortal official after all, but he has never heard his colleagues mention this matter. It can be seen that Yu County has concealed it deeply, and even, I am afraid that the government office is deliberately suppressing the case.
These murdered people, including men, women, old and young, have no similar characteristics at all. Even the so-called birth date and horoscope were checked by the immortal officials, but there were no similar traces.
But in the end, the people in the government office discovered something strange, that is, these people were killed late at night and died on the street.
Although this is not a rule, if a man comes out to drink and have fun at night, it is still the case, but how can young children, elderly people, and women come out easily at night?
This is also a clue that is not a clue, but the immortal officials in Yu County have been ambushed for a long time, but they have not seen the murderer.
Originally, the case was prepared to investigate the case. After all, with the nature of the Datong Ma Cunyi, the case in Yu County could allow him to stay in Yu County for several months. Although it was an ambush, it happened to be his lazy personality.
It was precisely because Yu County and Gui'an County were adjacent to that, the Dui Zun took the opportunity to come to Gui'an County first.
As a result, Song Heng asked Su An before him, which made Datongzhi's lazy personality even more excessive, and directly handed over the case to Su An.
He gave Su An a month. Even if he didn't catch the real murderer, as long as he found a truly useful clue, it would be Su An's credit.
But if Su An gets nothing after a month, there is no need to mention it. Just stay in Rei'an County honestly.
In addition, Su An did not know any other detailed information. After all, with Ma Cunyi's lazy nature, he could not bring all the files of this case before leaving.
It can be said that this may be just Ma Cunyi's lazy idea, and he wanted to find an excuse to be lazy. Su An happened to bump into him, so he pushed him casually, so he just knew about this case simply, and he had to investigate the rest by himself.
However, in addition, Ma Cunyi also left Su An a token, the token belonging to Datongzhi.
However, this token is limited to Su An who catches the murderer or finds a real clue. He can only hold the token to find him or to mobilize officials in Yu County to arrest people. Except, it cannot be used, otherwise, it will be killed.
Su An was not dissatisfied with this. After all, this is Datongzhi's token, so how could he really use it at will?
However, the last two words of the county magistrate Song Heng made Su An think a little deeply.
"If it is not necessary, do not disturb the Yu County Government."
"If necessary, we can take two or three immortal officials from Gui'an County to accompany you."
These two sentences were the last one that Song Heng told Su An, especially the last sentence, which was nothing, but the second to last sentence made Su An have other ideas.
Could it be that there are immortal officials in Yu County who are involved with the murderer?
This suspicion is actually normal. After all, so many people have died for a year in a row, but the murderer is still doing evil, and anyone else is suspicious of the Yu County Yamen.
Even the government office may have some doubts about this, otherwise it would not have sent Datong Zhi to investigate the case.
If this case falls on others, I'm afraid it will start to have a headache, but for Su An, he is not that worried.
Nothing else, just because of the ancient book that exists in his mind.
With the existence of ancient books in his mind, he is very sure to find the real murderer. No matter how bad he is, he can find some useful clues.
After coming out of the study of Houya, Su An did not go to the house where he was on duty to say goodbye to Zhao Huan, just like the county master Song Heng ordered. Instead, he went back to his yard, changed his clothes, and put all the spirit stones and other things in his arms, including the healing pills and silver, and then hurriedly left.
After all, he must have to hide his identity during this trip. If he stayed in the standard scimitar of the Immortal Dynasty, anyone could tell at a glance that this was a scimitar belonging to the Immortal Official, how could he hide his identity?
In the city, Su An bought a short knife and put it on his waist. It was like an ordinary passerby, carrying a sharp weapon on his body, and he could use it as a self-protection when encountering birds and beasts in the wild.
There are quite a few people going to Yu County after coming out of the city and on the official road, but most of them are in groups of three or three. After all, this is a journey outside the city, with more people, so it is still safe.
Those lonely tourists were mostly riding fast horses, riding far away from the dust, and were scolded by the people walking behind them.
"Brother, look at your direction, you are also going to Yu County?"
Su An was about a few steps away from the three people in front of him. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Su An couldn't help but go forward and talk.
He was not a person who likes quietness very much, not to mention that he had never been to Yuxian yet. If he knew something through others, it would be good.
"Young Master also went to Yu County?"
The middle-aged man who was spoken by Su An looked at Su An with a warning, but then his face became less alert. Although Su An had a short knife on his waist, he had a tender face and was not old. Moreover, if it were those who were harmful to others, how could he show the short knife on the surface like this?
"Yes, I'm going to Yu County to find relatives."
"One of my younger brothers used to be an accountant in Yu County. I often sent someone to come back with a little letter, but this time it has been half a year, and there is no letter."
"The family is worried. Let me go and look for him, but nothing happened."
Speaking of this, Su An frowned and worriedly, "Does my brother also go to Yu County?"
"We are not going to Yu County."
The middle-aged man Bian Gui smiled honestly: "But you have to pass by Yu County."
"Who dares to go in Yu County now? We don't dare to go anyway. When we reach Yu County, we are not going to stop."
As he finished speaking, he seemed to realize that he had said something he shouldn't have said. Bian Gui's honest face became a little embarrassed, muttering softly what no one could understand, and smiling honestly.
"Why don't you dare to go there?"
