Chapter 265 Xiao Su catches the head

Yangxia belongs to Huazhou, but it is the junction of the four states of Huazhou, Ningzhou, Dizhou, and Zhongzhou. It is also located on the bank of the river. The major forces of Zhenwu, Hengyuan Zheng, Pingjin Cui, Shendu Zhao, and Dajiang Gang compete for it. , it is difficult to distinguish the top from the bottom, so there is a mixture of good and bad, and there are many hidden masters, which is relatively disordered compared to Yedu, Xuanwu and other places.

Among the six doors, Detective Li Chong was humming an opera, eating broad beans, drinking water and wine, and having a great time. He was over fifty and had been working as a detective in Yangxia for thirty years, so he was considered a local expert. He is well-informed, well-versed in people, and has friendships with various underground forces. Apart from his love of wine, he is a pretty good person. If it were not for his lack of strength, he would have become an associate chief catcher, and he could also be a chief catcher without knowing anything.

Suddenly, the chopsticks in his hand fell on the table, and half of the glass of water and wine was spilled. He stood up in a hurry and stammered: "Zheng, Governor Zheng, I see that there is nothing to do in the afternoon, so I have a few drinks to relax."

He also hoped that before returning home to retire, he could rely on his seniority to become an assistant chief executive, which would be considered a glorious family.

The person who came was none other than Zheng Jushan, the governor of Yangxia Liumen. He led a young man into the guard room, smiled and pressed his hand: "Old Li, don't panic, it's time for you to get tired in the afternoon. There’s nothing wrong with drinking to refresh yourself when you’re old.”

Zheng Jushan had always been relatively tolerant of Li Chong, who was well-informed and respected his superiors, and repeatedly promised to recommend him to the county government.

"Come on, let's get to know each other. This is Xiao Su Su Ziyuan, the assistant chief catcher sent by the county government. You can help him get to know the local heroes. Among all the catchers, you are the only one who doesn't bully others, Lao Li." Zheng Jushan pointed to himself. The young man next to him said.

Li Chong raised his eyes and looked up, and couldn't help shouting "Hello". This little Su head hunter looks very good. He has a sword on his left and right at his waist. He is wearing a six-door brocade robe. He is dark red and has straight sword eyebrows and a hanging nose. Bold, eyes like shooting stars, exceptionally handsome, and without any trace of makeup or arrogance. He smiled as cleanly as a clear spring: "Oh, Governor Zheng said something serious, how can you say that I 'led' Xiao Su to arrest him? It’s just to introduce him to some local snakes.”

"Please take care of me, Agent Li." Meng Qi replied with a smile.

Meng Qi's blood boils when he thinks of Jiangdong's masters and all kinds of strange skills and methods. This is a great opportunity to hone his skills. He agrees with both hands and feet that he should not go to the gods, so he accepted the task and came to Huazhou first. Yangtai investigates the cause of death of assistant head catcher Cai Xiang.

He also considered whether someone would deliberately send him an extremely dangerous mission, but he gave up the idea after seeing the time when it happened. Cai Xiang's body was found four days before the document arrived in Yedu, which means As soon as the Shendu Liumen Headquarters received Huazhou's request, they directly assigned the task to themselves. Even they themselves did not understand the specific situation. At most, they just found something to occupy themselves, so as not to cause trouble when they were distracted.

——After the six local gates in Yangxia confirmed their identities, they reported the matter to the county government. The county government then submitted it to the state government. The state government requested the Shendu headquarters to send a spy to investigate. After all, it was a matter of two states. Which side is in charge? No, it would be more appropriate to investigate at a higher level. Even if there is no delay, it will take two or three days with the convenience of six doors for information exchange.

Seeing that this clean young man was very polite, Li Chong immediately fell in love with him and repeatedly said that he would let Xiao Su catch the head to familiarize himself with the various forces in Yangxia as soon as possible.

Governor Zheng looked at Meng Qi who had landed in the air, put his hands behind his hands and smiled lightly: "Xiao Su came from the county government office and is mainly responsible for Cai Xiang's affairs. Old Li, you are so tired and tired."

Li Chong's expression changed slightly, and he was stunned for a moment before saying: "How dare you disobey orders in a humble position."

It turns out that the head catcher Xiao Su was squeezed out to investigate this matter. No wonder he was given the benefit of being an assistant head catcher. He will never be punished for it in the future!

Watching Governor Zheng go away, Meng Qi said with a smile: "Agent Li, I have seen the secret files of the previous investigation. Please take me to see Scar."

Li Chong took a deep breath: "Okay."

He took the waist knife and waist badge and led Meng Qi out of the six doors and towards the most crowded street in Yangxia.

After walking for a while, he clicked his lips and said: "Xiao Su is the boss, we are going home to take care of ourselves soon. We are relying on our old age to live in old age. Let me remind you, this is evil!"

He saw that Capt. Xiao Su, a young man, was clean, gentle and polite, and did not seem to be a powerful person. He speculated that he was squeezed out to investigate the matter because the other captivating officers shied away from him.

"Evil nature?" Meng Qi asked calmly.

Li Chong was silent for a moment and exhaled: "Captain Cai was the associate manager of Maoling in Jiangdong. He disappeared to investigate the undercurrent of Maoling. As a result, his body was found in our Yangxia half a month later. It looked like he had just died. , but the inside is rotten, as if it has been dead for a long time. Do you think this is not evil? Can the body come to Yangxia by itself? "

"And when we found him, he could still walk on his own, but he fell to the ground and died after being pushed lightly by the sailor!"

"Perhaps the body was carried on the ship from Maoling to Yangxia, and was later discovered by the demon, who manipulated his body away from the important place." Meng Qi speculated deliberately.

Li Chong said helplessly: "Oh, Xiao Su is the head hunter. Don't you think about the distance from Maoling to Yangxia? Even if Yangxia goes down the river to Maoling, it will take a month, not to mention the other way around? If you want to think about it for half a month From Maoling to Yangxia, unless you use Qinggong..."

"Every day on the road!" The two said these four words at the same time.

Meng Qi first discovered this problem. It took him nearly a month and a half to go from Yedu to Yangxia with smooth sailing, and the distance from Yangxia to Maoling was about the same distance.

"That's right, Xiaosu Capt. How do you think the corpse can use Qinggong to travel every day? That's why I say this is evil!" Seeing that Meng Qi finally understood, Li Chong clapped his hands together and made a crisp sound.

Meng Qi smiled and nodded: "No matter what, since I have been assigned this task, I still have to start the investigation. Please cooperate with Agent Li."

"It should, it should." Li Chong replied repeatedly. It was really hard to find such a polite young head catcher.

The two of them turned out of the lively but chaotic street and entered a relatively quiet alley. There were sellers of mutton soup with blood on their noses, and sellers of dog meat stew with a strong aroma. Most of the passers-by had a strong air.

"Scar is one of the local snakes. The sailor who pushed Capt. Cai down was begging for food from him. Now that he is hiding, we have to contact him through him." Li Chong took the time to introduce the knife to Capt. Su, a clean and gentle man. Scar's condition to prevent him from causing trouble.

Meng Qi listened quietly, looking cautious and gentle as a newcomer.

"Scar has some connections with the Dajiang Gang and Pingjin Cui, so he holds 30% of the underworld business in Yangxia. He has many eyes and ears and is not easy to mess with." Li Chong first emphasized Scar's background and power, "When he was young, he dared to fight hard. Be cruel to others and be cruel to yourself, so that you can rise from a street gangster to a powerful man in Yangxia. He will be favored by several major forces and secretly cultivated to become a master of the heretic. It is said that when he was forty years old, he once competed with the top thirty people in the ranking. He was tied with others, and now ten years have passed, and no one knows what his strength is."

Meng Qi paid more attention to Scar, and even after reading the secret file, he listened attentively.

Seeing that Xiao Su had a correct attitude and no trace of impatience, Li Chong secretly praised him. Nowadays, most of the people who can become associate chief catchers at this age are a little arrogant. They feel that with the background of Liumen and their own With potential, you can completely despise those gangsters. They should please you instead of being careful with you. There are very few people who are as humble and sensible as Xiaosu Captou!

"In the whole of Yangxia, there are not many people who can make Dao Scar sell face. In the Yamen, only Governor Zheng has this qualification. It is also because of this that I can go to the old man's house with a shameless face and harass him. Xiaosu arrests the head, you must not act randomly. Otherwise, if you want to talk to me later, if you have any questions, just tell me through the secret transmission. Hey, you know how to transmit the secret, right?" Li Chong felt that Xiao Su, the headhunter, was so young, and he might not have learned it yet.

Meng Qi smiled and said: "Yes."

"That's no problem." Li Chong breathed a sigh of relief. It's no wonder Xiao Su became the associate manager at a young age. No wonder he was squeezed out. After all, he made people jealous.

He added: "Seven years ago, Scar reached his current position and began to indulge and become less ruthless. As long as you don't offend him, everything will be fine."

"Why did he get the nickname Scar? He doesn't have the demeanor of a master of the left at all." Meng Qi asked casually.

Li Chong smiled: "Those scars were the most serious injuries he suffered when he was young. They were all on his face, chest, and lower abdomen. He finally survived. Then he claimed that he would take the scars as his nickname and never forget them. I was attacked by someone when I was slacking off that day.”

While talking, the two of them arrived in front of a shop, with several strong men guarding the door.

"Li Jiugui, who is this?" The person at the door obviously knew Li Chong. He looked at the clean and tidy Meng Qi behind him and muttered.

Li Chong chuckled and said, "This is Xiao Su, the new head catcher from the Yamen. I'll take him to pay homage to the mountain."

"The smiling boy with a yellow mouth has become the assistant chief catcher..." The head guard muttered to himself in a low voice. Li Chong couldn't hear it, but Meng Qi could hear it clearly with his ears.

The leader of the gatekeeper coughed: "Li Jiugui, you are also lucky. The boss happens to be here. I will lead you in."

After passing through the outside shop and the middle courtyard, and passing through heavy guards, Meng Qi finally met Yang Xia's powerful and left-handed master, "Scar" Yan Xiao. The yard where he lived was in tatters and was completely inconsistent with his identity, but inside It is extremely luxurious, whether it is the dark red carpet or the large sandalwood bed, they are all valuable.

He is a bit too indulgent... When Meng Qi saw Scar, this was the only thing that came to his mind.

There is a big black bed directly in Scar's living room. He is like a mountain of meat, lying on it. Beside him are half-naked women in white gauze waiting on him. Some feed him grapes, and some beat his legs. Some rubbed their temples.

There was an obvious scar on his face. Without turning his head, he squinted his eyes and said, "The arrester Xiao Su is here to ask about the case of the arrester Cai, right? In the past month or so, you have been here several times, with different arresters. , same question, do you think my scar has lost its temper?"

Every time he said a word, the fat on his body would shake.
