Chapter 88 Contradiction
After the people from the White Lotus Sect left, the police from Wan'an City arrived belatedly.
When such a situation occurs, it is actually very simple. Not only is there no benefit to reporting the crime, but you may also get yourself involved and cause a lot of trouble. As time goes by, no one is willing to take the initiative to report the crime.
If these officials say: You didn't do it, why do you want to report to the government? Wouldn't it mean that you didn't get the fox meat and got a lot of trouble?
Besides, the Ma family's reputation in Wan'an City is not very good. Things like annexing land and disregarding human life often happen.
Even if the people around him are rich or noble, there are not many people who are willing to deal with the Ma family.
Liu Xing inspected the scene and determined that these people were killed directly, and the people who did it were not weak in martial arts, and some of them were even fatal with one sword.
After a while, the head catcher Liu Xing asked: "How did the interrogation go?"
"Captain Liu, according to people around him, Ma Ren seems to have had some kind of conflict with this family. He brought a large group of people to seek revenge, and even threatened to crush the person's ashes."
"I just didn't expect that this family is not a soft persimmon. They have kicked the iron plate."
When the policeman said this, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face, and he seemed to be gloating about his misfortune.
The people of the Ma family usually yelled at the spies like them and didn't take them seriously at all.
Gein County Magistrate Mei Sheng and County Magistrate Gongsun Jing are both cooperating with the Ma family and Dong family. Naturally, they have to respect them more to avoid causing trouble for the County Magistrate and County Magistrate. They will still suffer the consequences.
Besides, the Ma family is already very powerful, and they are not something that little catchers like them can offend.
Liu Xing's expression remained unchanged. He had already made a guess about this possibility. He just asked, "Have you found out the details of this family?"
"Here... Mr. Liu, let me take a step to speak."
Seeing the policeman's cautious look, Liu Xing knew there must be something inside.
Sure enough, when the two of them walked to the corner, the policeman lowered his voice and said: "This family is a foreign businessman in name, but whether it is buying a house or doing some business, they all follow the path of the county magistrate, so..."
Needless to say, Liu Xing understood the meaning.
This family must have a relationship with the county magistrate, and the relationship is not shallow. If they wanted to investigate, they might have traced their boss.
"Don't spread this matter outside, just treat it as if you don't know."
Liu Xing thought about it and was still a little worried.
"In addition, you should eliminate everything you find and don't let others find out about it."
"Captain Liu, I understand."
Liu Xing was going to report this matter to the county magistrate. As for what to do next, he would just follow the order.
Anyway, no matter how powerful the Ma family is, they will not be able to control them for the time being.
Just when Liu Xing was about to order the corpses to be taken back to the Yamen and report the matter to the superiors, a large group of people surrounded the mansion aggressively.
Liu Xing took a big step to greet him, with a smile on his face: "Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Ma, you came just in time."
"It's a pity that your nephew brought someone to seek revenge, but was killed instead."
He said it was a pity, but looking at Liu Xing's expression, he didn't deserve a beating.
Ma Hui snorted coldly, his face not very pretty: "What on earth is going on?"
Even though he was facing the arrest of Wan'an City, Ma Hui still showed no courtesy.
"Didn't I make it very clear? If I could add something more, it's that your nephew's vision is not very good and he can't see people right. When he encountered a tough situation, he got involved in it."
Listening to Liu Xing's strange words, Ma Hui's anger also surged, but he still suppressed it.
Although he didn't like Liu Xing very much, Liu Xing was a head catcher after all. Once he took action, his nature would be different.
"What about these thieves?"
A hint of joking appeared on Liu Xing's square face: "Because the people who reported the crime were too late, they all ran away. I am planning to take all the bodies back and ask the county magistrate to issue a wanted warrant."
"But because Mr. Ma launched an army to investigate, it was delayed for some time."
"Originally, because of the arrogance and domineering nature of your Ma family, no one was willing to report the crime. As a result, the case took place for a long time and we didn't even know about it. Now it's like this again. We don't know where the thief has gone."
"In my estimation, there is a high probability that he has left the city and fled. It will be difficult to find him next."
Listening to Liu Xing's sarcastic remarks, Ma Hui glared: "You..."
But he couldn't say anything. Apart from the wrong tone, Liu Xing's words were all true.
"The body will be restrained by Liu Capt. I hope you can solve the case earlier, otherwise the county magistrate will blame you. Don't blame me for not reminding you!"
Ma Hui's words are obvious. The Ma family will definitely put pressure on the county magistrate in the future, and then the county magistrate will naturally transfer the pressure to Liu Xing.
"That doesn't stop Mr. Ma from worrying."
The expression on Liu Xing's face dropped and returned to his usual expressionless look.
"Let's go!"
Ma Hui looked at the many arrests leaving and spat: "What the hell, they are just some mud-legged people. Let's see how I will torture you to death!"
"You are stubborn, aren't you? When your wife and son fall into my hands, let's see if you are still tough!"
…
Luoye Mountain.
Shi Xingjie looked at the team that was missing several people, his expression gloomy.
Wang Mugen's face didn't look good either: "These people are all newly recruited, and they are most likely spies from other forces."
Although because of the evidence of smuggling by the county magistrate and others, the Wan'an City branch has developed extremely rapidly, and there is no need to hide in Tibet.
But the disadvantages are also obvious.
The county magistrate Mei Sheng knew their movements and even their actions. This gave the other party a chance to do something.
Shi Xingjie guessed that the evidence might have been stolen by the spies, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
"The top priority is to find a place to settle down first. And since those people are spies, they must have exposed our current position. We must leave as soon as possible, otherwise if we are surrounded by the government, the consequences will be disastrous."
Xu Rong spoke, and the suggestions he made were in line with the current situation.
He also didn't expect that there would be spies among the newly recruited people, who just provided him with cover.
In this way, his suspicion is almost gone.
When Shi Xingjie heard this, he sighed in his heart. He understood that what Xu Rong said was right.
"At critical moments, you can still rely on your own people. Brother Yu, it was my fault before."
Xu Rong waved his hand, as if he didn't care: "Captain, it's just a small hurdle right now, just cross it and it'll be fine."
