Chapter 12 The Murderer
Author: Scarvin French Fries
Although people often say that they work from sunrise and there are many people in the world who are used to getting up early to practice, Xie Chen has never been so used to it. If there is no urgent thing to do, he always sleeps until he wakes up naturally.
Because he went out last night, Xie Chen should have gotten up later than usual. The servants of the Su Mansion should have known that this matter would not be disturbed, but now it is different.
It is always not a happy thing to be woken up from sleep. Xie Chen’s face was not very good when he opened the door.
"Mr. Xie, Captain He invited you to the Zhu family, saying that there was something important." The servant explained carefully.
Xie Chen suddenly woke up and asked quickly: "How long has Captain He Ming been there?"
The servant said, "I just left shortly."
Xie Chen immediately ordered: "Prepare the carriage immediately and notify Xiaochan."
Of course, Su Xiaochan had already gotten up, and when He Ming came to inform her, she was ready to go out.
On the carriage, Su Xiaochan said curiously: "Captain He Ming found the murderer?"
Xie Chen smiled and said, "It is probably because he found the murderer who killed Zhu He and Chen Jie."
Su Xiaochan looked at Xie Chen carefully: "No."
Xie Chen asked, "What's wrong?"
Su Xiaochan said: "If someone else solved the puzzle in advance before you show off, you would definitely not have the same expression as you are now."
Xie Chen smiled and said, "Can I be like this in your eyes?"
Su Xiaochan nodded.
Xie Chen said: "No matter who it is, it is always good to be able to catch the real murderer, not to mention that solving the case is the matter of Captain He Ming, and it is the right thing for him to solve the case."
Su Xiaochan just looked at him.
Xie Chen asked again: "What are you still watching me do?"
Su Xiaochan said: "But what?"
Xie Chen blinked.
Su Xiaochan said: "Don't pretend to be stupid. There must be a silly behind you when you speak like this, so what is the silly this time? Are you sure Captain He Ming will catch the wrong person?"
Xie Chen smiled and said, "No, I believe in Captain He Ming's ability."
When the carriage arrived at the door of Zhu's house, a rumbling sound could be heard inside. Before Xie Chen got off the car, a small yamen runner from Liushemen came up and said, "Six doors are in danger of murder, and the idle people are retreating."
Xie Chen looked at him carefully and smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I'm here just in time. I'm sure I can help you."
As he said that, he walked in without caring about it. When the little yamen runner saw it, he hurriedly stopped him. He reached out and grabbed it, but he was still taken and staggered. After he stood firm, he saw Xie Chen and Su Xiaochan had already walked through the gate. In panic, he shouted and chased him in.
When Xie Chen and Su Xiaochan entered the Zhu family, they saw He Ming fighting with a tall man dressed in a servant, while the yamen runners surrounded the yard where the two were fighting.
When He Ming fought with the man, He Ming's steel knife in his hand was rigorous and fierce, which was his famous skill "Twelve Styles of Breaking the Formation". The man who fought with him made a short sword resist. The sword light pointed to it in a variety of ways, and the moves were dazzling.
"Captain He Ming is going to win." Xie Chen said.
Su Xiaochan nodded: "Yes, the twelve styles of breaking the formation are really the most powerful skill. I can only see the tricks of being meticulous. How can I control the varied and clever sword technique? I will most likely control this varied and clever sword technique."
Xie Chen said again: "What a pity."
Su Xiaochan asked: What a pity?
Xie Chen said: "It's a pity that this person has practiced all the wrong things."
Su Xiaochan was puzzled: "Is I practicing wrong? How did I make a mistake?"
Xie Chen's tone was full of regret: "This sword technique is not used like this. If you look at his sword moves, it is difficult to measure the changes in reality. This is good, but it lacks the killing move that has just forged ahead and taken advantage of the momentum to cover up the killing. No matter how many changes are, without the finishing touch, nothing will be gone."
Su Xiaochan looked at the moves of the two people carefully, and then fantasized about what Xie Chen said in her mind. She couldn't help but exclaim: "It should be as you said, but even if you are short, this sword move can be called a master. If you can do what you said, it will probably be enough to be called a master. At that time, not to mention Captain He, there are not many people in this world who can beat this sword technique."
Xie Chen just watched the two fight and didn't reply.
The two fought for more than thirty moves. The man could not defeat him for a long time, and finally He Ming found the right opportunity. He went from defending to attack and slashed with a knife. The man could not dodge and a deep bone-skinned wound appeared on his right arm holding the sword.
He Ming was about to chase after the attack, but the man abandoned his sword and kicked his legs and jumped onto the roof.
This light skill is really outstanding. As soon as he got on the roof, he kicked again. He had already rushed out several feet away in the leaping, and seemed to be about to escape.
Unexpectedly, he was running out, but suddenly a large net was covered with a sky-high cover.
The man was shocked, holding his claws with both hands but could not tear the big net.
He Mingti said, "Of course you are not the first master of light skills to deal with by Liushemen. Since I know that you have outstanding light skills, how could you not be prepared?"
The man was covered in the net, and blood dripped down his hanging right arm to the ground without any fear. He just rushed left and right and made several detectives holding the net unable to hold on.
He Ming was shocked when he saw this and hurriedly brought the knife forward. Seeing that the man pulled a slightly weak detective to the ground and slashed it out in a hurry.
Besides, the man was still struggling with a big net. How could he have the energy to guard against He Ming? He saw that this knife was about to cut him into two pieces.
Xie Chen suddenly rushed out of the crowd, pointed his left hand at the man, and grabbed He Ming's hand with his right hand.
He Ming's knife stopped, and the man's struggle also stopped.
Xie Chen let go of his hand and He Ming withdrew his knife.
"Master Captain, this man rushed in, I can't stop him." The little yamen runner who was just now hurriedly stepped forward and said.
He Ming had already come back to his senses and waved his hand and said, "Of course you can't stop him. Besides, he is not considered a messy person, so you can go down."
The little yamen runner hurriedly retreated.
He Ming turned to Xie Chen and bowed: "Thank you so much to the miracle doctor for helping you, so that you can capture this evil thief alive."
Xie Chen said, "It's okay, it's okay. I was just looking at Captain He to capture the thief, but I didn't expect that the thief was so skilled that he could almost not get him."
He Ming said: "This thief is indeed brave, let alone his hidden skills are superb."
Xie Chen said in confusion: "Oh? Where did you start?"
He Ming pointed at himself and said as a self-deprecatingly: "Isn't it outstanding enough to deceive my eyes?"
Xie Ming widened his eyes: "Captain He Ming didn't know that this person could do martial arts before?"
He Ming smiled bitterly and said, "I've been defeated this time. If you hadn't reminded me, I would have been fooled by this thief. In the past, I was self-reliant, but this time I learned a lesson."
Xie Chen seemed to be a little confused, and only heard him ask, "I don't understand, the headmaster, you said you were deceived by him and didn't realize that he knew martial arts. I know this now, but why did you say I helped? How did I remind the headmaster?"
He Ming said: "The token you gave me to Demon Cult is a reminder."
Xie Chen still doesn't understand.
He Ming smiled and shook his head, saying, "Since that's the case, I'll explain it to you."
He Ming led everyone to Zhu He's death room: "Doctor Xie still remember the scene when you first came to this room?"
Xie Chen glanced at the house and said, "Of course I remember it."
He Ming nodded and said, "Actually, this case itself is not difficult to solve."
As he said that, he looked at the blood words on the wall, sneered, and walked to the captured man: "The truth of the matter is that you are the killer of the Four Holy Demon Sects! Zhu He and Chen Jie are the ones who occasionally obtained a treasure hidden by your Demon Sect without knowing it! And you are the ones who came to regain the treasures! As I said that day, you and Zhu He and Chen Jie have no grudges at all! You worked hard to find chicken blood from the kitchen and bring them to the murder scene, just to deliberately leave a blood book because I was going to think about it!"
After hearing this, the man laughed and mocked: "You continue to say it, let me see what other stories you can tell!"
He Ming was not angry when he heard the man's words: "You are just quibbling now, and I and my colleagues can appreciate what excuses you, the Western Regions Demon Cult can say that are unique to the prisoners in the Central Plains."
When the man heard this, he just lowered his head and kept silent.
He Ming said: "However, the skills of the Four Holy Demon Sects are indeed outstanding. No wonder they almost caused trouble in the world in the past. You can hide your hiding skills from me. Even if I rely on these tricks, this time I really regard you as an ordinary groom."
As he said that, he looked at Xie Chen: "Thanks to Doctor Xie who handed me the token you lost to you!"
The man looked at the jade token that He Ming had held in his hand: "No wonder, it turned out that the rope was broken and lost when he killed Chen Jie."
I saw him sigh and shook his head repeatedly.
"When I figured out all this, all the mysteries in the case will be solved!" He Ming said: "Zhu He will take the poison obediently, but because he knows martial arts, he has to eat it by you. I believe you have also said stupid words like 'This poison will not be fatal immediately, as long as you get the antidote regularly, it will not be painful' and coaxed him to help you work. As for Chen Jie, he is so experienced in the world that he will naturally not be fooled easily, so you have to kill him with a sword!"
As he said that, He Ming said proudly: "I not only know how you kill people, but also why you waited in the Zhu family for two years, just because you must deal with Chen Jie, but Chen Jie happened to have gone to the Western Regions in the past two years, so you had to pretend to be a groom in the mansion and just happened to inquire where the two of them got their treasures! Finally, after Chen Jie returned, you couldn't wait to do it!"
The man lowered his head and had no reaction at all.
Xie Chen then said as if he realized it later: "So that's it, then this killer is really hopeless."
He Ming said: "Yes, it's really stupid."
Xie Chen smiled, and he walked to the wall with blood words written on it and said, "But I don't know if the stupidity that the captain said is the same as the stupidity that I said."
He Ming said: "Of course the same."
Xie Chen sighed: "I don't think so."
He Ming frowned and his face slightly darkened.
Xie Chen said: "As the captain said, the groom certainly killed two people..."
He Ming's expression became more and more gloomy: "Since that's the case, why did Doctor Xie want to speak but stop?"
Xie Chen sighed: "It's a pity, but I never thought that this case was not just a murder."
Seeing what Xie Chen wanted to say, He Ming was still anxious to speak and heard Xie Chen say, "Do you tell me it yourself, or will I tell you it for you?"
