The distance between Yunlu Street and Baifu is not too far. In Ze'an Guard, Brody Bai's Northern Inspection Division is in charge of criminal investigation and arrest, and handles various bizarre cases.
Weston Wang was an official of the imperial court, and his death was bizarre. After Brody Bai left the palace, he got on his horse and rushed to the scene of the incident.
It was a serious matter, but as he galloped across the long street, the system suddenly became excited and became coquettish ------ [Exquisite riding skills, successful fans, points +1! 】
[The sleeves are blown up by the wind, the shape is elegant, points +1! 】
[Being stared at by a girl obsessively, attracting her heart, points +1! 】
Brody Bai: ...
Although it was a little noisy, it was quite satisfying to hear the points keep rising. He temporarily tolerated the system's nagging behavior.
Brody Bai and several men on duty met halfway. Before the group arrived, they heard a lot of people talking and talking not far ahead.
A tall and handsome young man behind him saw this and shouted loudly: "Ze'anwei is doing business, and everyone else is waiting to get out of the way!"
As soon as the three words "Ze'anwei" came out, the crowd who had gathered in a circle to watch the excitement suddenly spread out, revealing a charred corpse in the middle.
Not far from the body, a boy was sitting on the ground wailing. Xavier Xie stood at the other end with a pale face, being supported by his attendants.
Brody Bai happened to see the boy shouting something to Xavier Xie. Before he could hear clearly, he saw the boy grab a freshly beaten sickle from the door of the iron shop next to him and slashed at Xavier Xie!
This was too sudden, the blade flashed, countless screams broke out from the crowd, and the people near the servant rolled and crawled to dodge.
Brody Bai picked up the reins and galloped forward. When approaching the crowd, he flew down and pounced on the boy.
This gallop was so free and unrestrained, the system was excited and suddenly raised its voice:
"A handsome appearance! When you jump off the horse, you have to turn around in mid-air and land to show your true style. Okay, Brody Bai! Full marks for completing the action!"
Brody Bai's body flashed past, his clothes were flying, and he clasped and clasped the young man's wrist. The sickle that almost hurt someone was in his hand in the blink of an eye. Following his move, the handle of the sickle hit the young man's middle point, restraining him.
From grabbing the knife to killing the person, it only took a few breaths. People on both sides of the street cheered loudly, but after seeing his face clearly, they suddenly fell silent, ecstatic, except for the system, which was hoarse:
"Grab the knife! Seize the knife! Seize the knife! Brody Bai has made a meritorious service, Brody Bai has made a meritorious service! At this moment, you are not alone. You represent the entire Ze'anwei, the entire system, and you are in the limelight! It's so enjoyable, and your personal image is soaring. Add 100 points------"
Brody Bai almost plunged into the ground: "Shut up!"
The rest of the people also dismounted. The young man who just ordered everyone to retreat was named Chang Yanbo. He was the youngest son of the Minister of War. He looked at the charred and twisted corpse on the ground and asked in surprise:
"What's going on? There's no fire anywhere around here. Why are people burned like this?"
This scene was so terrifying. Among the crowd watching, except for a few brave girls watching, most of the others were adult men.
Hearing his inquiry, a bolder man took the initiative and said: "There is no fire anywhere. Official, you came too late and didn't see it. The flames came out of Mr. Weston Wang's body on his own!"
Chang Yanbo looked at the mature Weston Wang on the ground and asked in surprise: "What did you say?"
The man lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "The villain was present from the beginning to the end, but it was really real. Mr. Wang was riding down the street in a sedan. There was a sedan in front of him, and the official on it was I don’t know him. Later, the gentleman seemed to have sent someone to call Master Wang to tell him something. The two of them got off the sedan chair and stood on the street. Then it happened out of nowhere!"
The Ze'an guards who were listening to his speech also felt their teeth aching at what the other party said. Chang Yanbo looked at Brody Bai and saw him raising his chin, so he asked again: "Is it hopeless?"
"Save it, save it, how can I just watch people burn to death!"
The man smacked his lips and sighed: "But the fever was really too fast. At that time, Weston Wang screamed so miserable! The sound made my skin crawl. In the blink of an eye, I couldn't even see the human form, and everyone could only see There was a fire rolling on the ground. When a bucket of water was put out, the man was gone. "
As he spoke, the people around him nodded in agreement, and someone else interrupted and added: "Here, adults, look at the official over there. He is the one who just spoke to Mr. Wang."
While he was talking, Wu Zuo also hurried over with a box on his back. Brody Bai asked him to perform an autopsy. He looked in the direction of the man's finger and met Xavier Xie's eyes.
His lips curled up slightly, and he held his hands with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Marquis, I didn't expect that we would see each other again so soon."
Xavier Xie remembered his words "I never want to see you again" when he walked out of the White House: ...
Are you going to let people live? Even a slap in the face can't be done so quickly.
In fact, he was really unlucky. He didn't encounter a single good thing for most of the day.
Before this incident happened, Wang and Xie had suffered a lot from Brody Bai and were almost kicked out of the Bai Mansion. They were both holding their breath in their hearts, but even so, they still had to reluctantly maintain a harmonious relationship with each other. They left together.
Otherwise, the news that "Mr.
Xavier Xie sat in the sedan and was carried away for a while, gradually calming down. Now it's a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed, but if the Wang family turns from an alliance to a enemy due to a moment of anger, it will not do him any good at all.
Because of this, he called Wesley Wang down from the sedan chair. I originally planned to use this incident to negotiate some terms with the other party, but the terms were not negotiated. Instead, I witnessed a "burning of living people" with my own eyes.
Xavier Xie fought on the battlefield in his early years and saw a lot of things in the world. A big living person was burned to charcoal in front of him. Although he was quite frightened, his behavior was relatively calm.
Until then, when he was directly confronted by Brody Bai, Xavier Xie felt that the face he was hanging on his head was in danger, and his heart was so clogged that he vomited blood and re-narrated the incident with a stiff face.
What he said was no different from what the people around him said.
Brody Bai was thinking about the case and had no time to argue with Xavier Xie. After hearing this, he was about to speak when someone walked up beside him and whispered: "Commander."
When he turned around, he saw a tall and thin young man named Yang Zhun, an ordinary sergeant under his command. At this moment, Yang Zhun was escorting Wesley Wang's boy who intended to hurt others.
The boy's acupuncture points were originally tapped by Brody Bai, but just now in order to ask him questions, Yang Zhun opened the acupoints for him.
He reported to Brody Bai: "Sir, this boy said that Mr. Wang had an accident and that he wouldn't survive even if he went back. So he thought it would be better to die bravely, and he would only hurt someone in a hurry."
Brody Bai and Yang Zhun exchanged a look, and they immediately understood each other tacitly.
Wesley Wang's wife, Mrs. Liu, was born in a general's palace. She was very tough. At the age of 16, she killed a disciple who molested her on the street. She was a well-known tigress. Now that Wesley Wang is dead, the young man following him is probably afraid of being killed by Mrs. Wang in a rage, so he wants to take a chance.
But why did he attack Xavier Xie?
At this time, it was still on the street, and there were many people talking. Brody Bai suppressed the doubts in his heart and said, "Go back and try again."
Yang Zhun nodded and agreed, but just when he was about to turn around, the boy suddenly broke away from his hand, pointed at Xavier Xie and shouted loudly: "He had a dispute with my family before, and my family must have been used by him." Killed by magic!"
Yang Zhun shouted: "That's nonsense! What kind of magic method is not magic?"
The boy's face was full of horror and his voice was shrill: "There must be! I saw it with my own eyes! The fire on Mr. Wang's body suddenly came out of his chest! It just came out of thin air!"
His eyes were so wide open that they almost seemed to fall out of their sockets, and his forehead was covered with sweat: "He was rolling on the ground with fire, screaming...the fire burned all the flesh on his body. , sizzling sound... That ghost, that ghost must be here! Is it not him, or is it you--"
In the sunny afternoon, this crazy voice caused a layer of cold sweat to break out on the backs of many people. The crowd around them dispersed in an instant. Yang Zhun failed to block him several times. Brody Bai simply slapped him and knocked him out. .
"Yang Zhun, take him back."
Yang Huai agreed, paused, and said in a low voice to Brody Bai: "Do you think there really is a ghost?"
Brody Bai smiled faintly: "I don't know if there are ghosts, but if a human is killed, no matter he is a human or a ghost, he has to show himself to me."
Yang Zhun said: "That's natural."
He turned around and left. Brody Bai looked at his back and thought deeply. The system made a "ding-dong" sound and a dialog box popped up:
[The fortune-telling function is activated randomly, "If the bridge of the nose is crooked three times, the person will be R@p3d." Please beware of Yang Zhun. 】
Brody Bai snorted: "I think so. Did he let go of the boy on purpose just now, just to let him talk?"
[If you need to disclose the details, please use 50 points to redeem. 】
Brody Bai was reminded: "How many points do I have now?"
[Total points: 837. 】
Brody Bai said: "You have worked hard, give it to me in exchange for the length of your life."
The system couldn't believe it and tried to sell: [Knowing the details of the characters can help the host learn more clues and speed up the process of solving the case...]
Brody Bai: "Hey, why do I think this kind of behavior of yours was called in Hunter Han's time... induced consumption? Isn't it a waste where I spend my points?"
The system felt aggrieved: [The system can only collect commissions if the host purchases additional functions other than lifespan exchange. 】
Brody Bai: "That's it."
He then smiled: "But I don't need it."
System: [qaq]
The system's deceptive factory settings made Brody Bai very insecure. He believed that accumulating more survival time was the top priority now. As for Yang Zhun... if he dared to cause trouble in front of him, Brody Bai really wanted to see what this kid was like. What to do.
Brody Bai walked up to the corpse, looked up and down without restraint, and asked Zuo: "What do you see?"
Wu Zuo was squatting down to perform an autopsy, but Brody Bai signaled him not to get up, so he moved forward and squatted down next to Wu Zuo: "Go ahead."
"Yes." Wu Zuo replied: "Please see, sir, the deceased's hands were tightened in a fist-like shape, and the skin was simply cracked. Although there was only a small amount of soot attached to the mouth, nose, and throat, there were blisters in the throat. It can be determined that It will definitely be burned to death."
Brody Bai was silent. Normally, a person who is burned to death will breathe heavily during the death process. When breathing, he will inhale the soot and charcoal from the flame into the respiratory tract. Observe whether soot can be seen in the mouth and nose of the deceased. Charcoal powder is the primary factor in identifying whether a person was burned to death or cremated after death.
But Weston Wang was different. Although he was burned to death, the surrounding environment was normal. He was the only one who was on fire from beginning to end. Zu Zuo's discovery verified this.
The way of death is so weird, no problem is the biggest problem!
There was no discrepancy in the opinions of the surrounding people. After asking questions, they were dispersed by Ze'anwei's people. Brody Bai thought of what the young man said just now, "Fire suddenly started to burn from his chest." His heart moved, and he stretched out his hand along the chest of the charred corpse, with a look of surprise on his face.
Wu Zuo looked at him with admiration.
The corpse was charred, cracked, and the skin was peeling off. It almost lost its human shape. Even though he had been a widower for many years, he endured the discomfort during the autopsy. However, Brody Bai did not avoid the filth and his movements were meticulous. It is no wonder that he Since taking office, there has never been an unjust case among his staff.
At this time, Brody Bai's subordinate Yan Yang came from the side and said, "Sixth brother, someone from Weston Wang's mansion has come, and he must ask for the body to be carried back."
Yan Yang has a very meticulous character. When he mentioned this, he was worried that Brody Bai didn't understand what he meant, so he lowered his voice slightly and reminded:
"The sibling of Mrs. Weston Wang's wife, Liu, is Liu Bo. He has always had a bad relationship with you, but recently he seems to be quite popular with King Linzhang. Sixth brother, be careful if he finds trouble."
Brody Bai smiled and patted his shoulder.
There were indeed quarrels between Liu Bo and him, but these quarrels were all because of the other person Yan Yang talked about------the late emperor's youngest son, Linzhang King Logan Lu, who was also the original protagonist of this book and Brody Bai's former lover. ......benefactor.
