Chapter 508

"Qingling has something to tell her mother, so she is waiting here." Ruan Qingling replied. Long Zexu nodded, said nothing more and left. When Ruan Qingling saw long Zexu leave, she could not help feeling very sad. When she and long Zexu were talking to each other, she never thought that long Zexu should treat her so coldly today.

Although Ruan Qingling is talking in front of Wang Xiushu today, she really has some thoughts in her heart. She wants to torture long Zexu, a heartless man, and let him taste all kinds of pain he has suffered.

In the capital. A seven grade official died at home, his death was very miserable, was cut open the belly. Patrol camp Luo Hui can't bear to look down, he came forward with a white cloth to cover the body of seven grade officials. The official's family members cried bitterly at the door, and his wife said, "I don't know what's going on. Today, the master went back to his room and stayed closed. When the servant girl called him to have dinner, she opened the door and found that the master had become like this."

This matter has already alarmed the emperor, the emperor immediately sent him to investigate this matter. Nowadays, there are many dead people in the capital, but the murderer has not been found. His killing methods are all rifling. So far, no one can see his true face.

Luo Hui comforted the official's family, took the official's body back to the patrol camp, and found him for autopsy. He sat in the hall and looked through the files brought by the capital Yamen. Looking at the names of the dead, Luo Hui sighed. In just seven days, the murderer killed more than ten people.

"Lord Luo, general Ruan and General Zhu are here." A bodyguard came forward, clenched his fist and said. Luo Hui quickly got up, raised his hand and said, "please come in."

Ruan Tianqi and Zhu Lehao went to the hall: "Lord Luo." Ruan Tianqi and Zhu Lehao bow to Luo Hui. Luo Hui clasped his fist and gave a salute: "are the two generals sent by the emperor?"

Ruan Tianqi nodded: "this matter has not been solved for a long time. The murderer is at large, which makes people panic. Tomorrow is new year's Eve. The emperor is worried about the capital's uneasy life in this year. The special envoy and General Zhu assist Luo Hui to arrest the murderer as soon as possible."

Luo Hui heard a sigh: "thank you, general Ruan, General Zhu."

"Lord Luo, tell us about the case. What's going on?" Zhu Lehao said.

"Seven days ago, a dozen watchmen had died in the night. The capital yamen thought it was a small case, but the next day there was a similar case in a theater, which was still in full view of the public." Luo Hui opens his mouth, and Ruan Tianqi nods. The next day Ruan Tianqi and Wang Xiushu are also at the scene of the case. The murderer's skill is excellent, and he can be invisible in the crowd.

"Then there is the third case..." Luo Hui, Xu Daolai, Ruan Tianqi and Zhu Lehao look at each other face to face. The murderer killed people regardless of their identity, and the ordinary people's court ordered him to kill them.

"General Ruan, this murderer is very difficult to control, and I don't know when he will attack. It's not easy to catch him." After that, Luo Hui sighed, and Ruan Tianqi nodded: "we can only send more people in the capital to take turns on duty. We don't know what the murderer thinks and what he wants to do. What we need to do now is to protect the people in the capital well and don't let them be persecuted by the murderer."

Luo Hui nodded. Zhu Lehao was a little absent-minded. It's not that he didn't care about it, it's just that he was slightly disappointed. His wife is pregnant now. She had made an appointment to spend New Year's Eve with her, but now, let alone new year's Eve, I'm afraid she can't spend the year with her.

"General Zhu, Lord Luo, let's discuss the place we want to defend." Ruan Tianqi opened his mouth. Zhu Lehao nodded, shook his head and waved away his sadness. He listened to Ruan Tianqi's instructions carefully. The three made a plan, got up and started to act.

At this time, it is almost dusk, and every household in the capital has lit red lanterns, waiting for the arrival of night. Ruan Tianqi and Zhu Lehao were divided into two groups. Ruan Tianqi guarded the South Gate of the capital, waiting for the night to come.

As the sun sets and the night envelops the capital, Ruan Tianqi leads a team of people to guard every corner of the south gate. With a woman's scream, Ruan Tianqi rushes in that direction. A man in black jumps from a restaurant and escapes into an alley. Ruan Tianqi follows him without saying a word.

The man in black was very quick and quick. Ruan Tianqi is still not close to the man in black. Seeing that he was about to follow him to the east gate, Ruan Tianqi called out: "brother Zhu!" A figure jumped on the wall and stopped in front of the man in black. The figure was Zhu Lehao. The man in black was covered with black, as if he was going to hide in the dark, so people couldn't see him clearly.

The man in black stopped, turned a corner at the moment when he was about to hit Zhu Lehao, and escaped into an alley. Ruan Tianqi and Zhu Lehao quickly follow up and see the man in black walking vigorously, reaching out and throwing a sand behind them. Ruan Tianqi and Zhu Lehao are fascinated by the sand. When they come back, the man in black has lost his trace.

"Damn it Ruan Tianqi cursed hard. He and Zhu Lehao went back to the restaurant, where the man in black fled. There was a mess in the restaurant. A man in Yamen's clothes was lying in a pool of blood. His body was covered with white cloth. The white cloth was covered with blood, which was particularly dazzling.

"Let him escape again." Ruan Tianqi and Zhu Lehao are both unconvinced. The man in Yamen uniform is the one who guards the north gate with Lord Luo tonight. It seems that this man saw the trace of the man in black, followed the man in black all the way to the restaurant, but was brutally killed by the man in black.

Lord Luo came late. When he saw the corpse lying on the ground, his eyes were stunned. He bit his teeth and squatted down: "brother, it's a good way to go."

"Lord Luo, what's the matter? Didn't we say that once we saw the trace of the man in black, we would call the patrolling brothers together? What's going on? Why did this brother enter this restaurant alone and be killed by the man in black? " Ruan Tianqi asked in a low voice.

"General Ruan, I don't know what's going on. I'll tell you as soon as I find the trace of the murderer, but..." general Luo said for a moment, "I don't know why he appears here."

Ruan Tianqi sighs. He looks at Luo Hui with suspicion. His eyes are full of blame. Seeing this situation, Zhu Lehao quickly advised: "brother Ruan, you can't really blame general Luo for this. You also know that any soldier in the capital who doesn't want to be promoted is likely to be the bodyguard who catches the murderer and gets the chance to be promoted, but he is too confident and his ability to lose his life."

Ruan Tianqi hesitated for a moment. What Zhu Lehao said was very reasonable. He gave a cold hum and said nothing more. Zhu Lehao calls Luo Hui to carry the body down and wait for the victim to claim it. Luo Hui nodded and acted according to Zhu Lehao.
