The Retirement of the Demon Lord

Chapter 73: Reasonable reasoning

"No one knows about this matter except for the people in the shadow city, the commander, the commander, and Dong. You should know that the identities of the shadow guards sent by the shadow city are not visible. We can only know the identities of the few secret guards sent by the Shadow Metropolitan Government near the sub-station, which are quite confidential. Now that Lord Zhou is dead, Dong is not afraid to tell you."

Dong Shengrui took a sip of tea and then explained it in detail.

"The Whale Sand Gang is composed of bandits and sand thieves. Even if the court is behind the support, it is inevitable that they will be a little worried about their secret mischief. So a secret guard was sent to sneak into the Whale Sand Gang, and timely feedback on the whale sand gang's movements, so that the court can Monitor the actions of the Jingsha Gang. In recent years, the Jingsha Gang has often done some smuggling of contraband in the Western Regions. They thought that the court did not know about it. In fact, Zhou Gaozhuo reported all these matters to the court. It's a petty act, and there has never been a delay in the matter of transporting salt and selling salt, and the court has turned a blind eye."

"Over the years, Zhou Gaozhuo has managed properly in the Whale Sand Gang, and he has worked hard and made great achievements. He is already a high-ranking official of the third rank. Even when I see it, I have to call it an adult."

Eight years ago, he shouldn't have been such a big official, right? Mei Qianxiao sighed with emotion. Back then, his master beat others up and asked them to fan them... It is estimated that this incident was reported to the imperial court long ago, adding to the crimes of the Sun Moon God Cult.

"The case of the tribute being robbed and killed this time is of great importance. Dong expected that the other party might not go through the Silk Road to enter the customs, but would go to the Jingsha Gang for smuggling, so he had already quietly contacted Mr. Zhou Gaozhuo and asked him to help. Investigate the whereabouts of the tribute. Because Dong must keep Zhou Gaozhuo’s identity a secret, and the existence of the Whale Sand Gang should not be disclosed at will, so all of this has not been explained to a few colleagues, please forgive me for this.”

"No, no, Mr. Dong did nothing wrong, so he doesn't need to apologize!" Jiang Hao waved his hands quickly.

Everything related to the shadow guards of the Shadow City Palace is top secret, but he also has to keep it secret from the other Jinyi guards.

"Until last night, just after discussing things with you and deciding to go to the Jingsha Gang station the next day, Dong received a flying pigeon biography from Lord Zhou Gaozhuo at night, which said, 'The tribute has eyes, come quickly, and change will happen later! '."

"Why do you think Dong Mou set off at the third watch? It was because of the urgency of the matter! I originally wanted to call you all to go with me, but I wanted you to come from a long way to live in the city, so I should have a good night's rest, so I ordered everyone to go right away. road."

I'm going, isn't this thing really leaving early for the sake of taking credit? Mei Qianxiao was very suspicious of the concern for them in Dong Shengrui's words. But Mei Qianxiao also had a hard time seeing whether Dong Shengrui was telling the truth or not. People like him have been wearing a seemingly harmless smile. Everyone knows that it is actually a fake smile, but people are so powerful that they can fake a smile at any time! It's like putting a mask on yourself, you can't read his true emotions from his expression, no one knows whether it is sadness or joy.

Hearing this, Jiang Hao couldn't help but glared at Mei Qianxiao. After all, Mei Qianxiao told him that Dong Shengrui was rushing to set off to grab credit. People are in trouble, right? And I am also sympathetic to their hard work and couldn't bear to call them to go together!

Mei Qian smiled and returned a look, which roughly meant: go all the way, you have big biceps, you say yes.

"Mei Qianxiao killed Zhou Gaozhuo as a thief without knowing it, so he can't be blamed!" Yixue said unyieldingly.

Sister Yixue, although your arguments for brother are more pertinent, but every sentence is based on the condition that Zhou Gaozhuo was killed by brother, wouldn't it be too arbitrary? If you continue to defend brother like this, brother will think it is Zhou Gaozhuo who killed himself!

"I'm afraid this matter is not so simple. From the current point of view, this case should be like this. You can see if what Dong said is correct."

"For the robbery of the tribute, it is very likely that these people from the Sealed Mountain Sect are the mastermind, and they are in trouble with the Jingsha Gang..."

"No, if you are in trouble with the Jingsha Gang, Zhou Gaozhuo should have news to Director Dong early in the morning." Yixue interrupted Dong Shengrui's words.

"Don't finish talking." Dong Shengrui smiled and continued, "The people who conspired with the Jingsha Gang and the Fengshan Sect are probably a small group of people headed by Qiu Junai. They were tempted by the Fengshan Sect and were insatiable greed. , put his idea on the tribute. Qiu Junai knew that Zhou Gaozhuo would not agree to this matter, so he did not let Zhou Gaozhuo and most of the Jingsha Gang disciples know about it."

"What Qiu Junai has to do is very simple and very safe. The matter of murdering and robbing goods is handed over to Fengshan Sect. He only needs to pick up the tributes as he usually accepts the smuggled goods entrusted by the client. Zhongyuan will send it to the person who receives it, and just wait for the money to be collected."

"But things went wrong. The tribute Qiu Junai planned to put it aside for a while and wait for the limelight to pass before shipping it away. But Qiu Junai suddenly received the news that we were going to investigate the Jingsha Gang, so he hurriedly got up at noon yesterday. Okay. The goods have been there for several days. Many brothers have carried them in and out of the warehouse and they know that there are pottery inside. When we go to investigate, we must be sure that the fire is covered with paper. So he didn't do anything about it, he took his brothers who were willing to follow him to transport the goods, and left the Jingsha Gang members who were more willing to rely on the court, and agreed that the people of Fengshan Sect would kill them all after they left, and cut the grass and roots... ...And Qiu Junai led the people to finish this vote and went into hiding incognito."

"Kill all the Fengshan sects who stayed behind the Jingsha Gang, and stay behind to fake the Jingsha Gang. If we go to a small number of people, we will directly deceive and kill them and bury them on the spot. Yes, if I can't stand scrutiny, I will definitely be caught by me."

"As for Zhou Gaozhuo, when he saw that Qiu Junai was in a hurry to get the goods, he found out where the tribute was, so he hurriedly passed the book to me. Later, he must have used every means to get Qiu Junai to take him and smuggle the goods together. Jun Ai believed that Zhou Gaozhuo was willing to follow him, so he told the whole story. Only then did Zhou Gaozhuo know that Qiu Junai planned to betray the imperial court. Zhou Gaozhuo no longer had carrier pigeons in his hands, and knew that it was difficult for us to catch up with them, so he had to take action alone and execute them on the spot. Killing Qiu Junai and his party who are scheming. So the autopsy report given by Zuo Zuo said that everyone except Zhou Gaozhuo died under the machete held by Zhou Gaozhuo."

"Not long after that, Mei Qianxiao arrived, and Zhou Gaozhuo was relieved to see that Mei Qianxiao was Jin Yiwei, and revealed his identity in full, and asked Mei Qianxiao to help bring the body back... Then Mei Qianxiao waited for Zhou Gaozhuo to turn his back. I took out the Embroidered Spring Sword and killed myself with one sword..."

"It doesn't make sense here! Mei Qianxiao is Jin Yiwei, why did you kill Zhou Gaozhuo who disclosed the fact that he was a secret guard!" Yixue said angrily.

"Because Mei Qianxiao is the other party's undercover agent on our side..." Dong Shengrui looked at Mei Qianxiao~www.novelmt.com~ as if he had seen through everything in his eyes, "If the other party has no one on our side, why not? Dare to do something daring?"

"How is that possible! He was the first to propose to investigate the Jingsha Gang. If he is a member of the Fengshan Sect, wouldn't he deliberately ruin his own good?"

"Then why didn't he make this suggestion on the spot when he found out that I hadn't investigated the Jingsha Gang when he first arrived in Dunhuang? And it took a long time before he suggested whether I should investigate the Jingsha Gang? These times are enough time for Fengshan Sect and Qiu Junai to do well. We are ready before our arrival! A person like him who knows the bottom line, he can see at a glance why I haven't solved the case for so long. He has already guessed from many clues that I have secretly locked the Whale Sand Gang! So let me just let me It's better to go there in an open and honest way than a secret investigation! Have you not noticed that as soon as he proposed to go to the Jingsha Gang station, Zhou Gaozhuo came to deliver a letter urgently that night? He didn't realize that we were busy, but he deliberately found a reason to keep himself out of it. , give yourself a chance to kill? Besides, can you find Zhou Gaozhuo and the others alone? It's the desert of death, and no one has informed him that he can find a team in the desert?"

"This……"

"I have investigated this kid, claiming to be a peripheral disciple of the Beggar Gang, which is a difficult identity to find out. And it happened that he was recruiting for the Gongwei Division when there was a shortage of people to assist the investigation in the Western Regions. A stinky beggar from the Central Plains knows many things about the Western Regions. Seeing and hearing... Do you think this person is worthy of suspicion?"

Dong Shengrui's words were reasonable, and even Yixue had nothing to say. He turned around and glared at him with a thousand smiles, hating that iron could not become steel, as if this person was terminally ill and could not be saved.

Hey, girl Yixue, you can't argue with others and care about your business! Brother is now a melon eater, okay?
