Chapter 142: Death Judge

Views:

From Madam Mei, Gao Yao once said that he wanted to be buried in the lychee garden because "the drunkard's intention is not the wine". If he is not for the descendants of Yinze, what is his real purpose

Just as I was puzzled by this, the sound of the car's engine brought me back to reality from my contemplation, and when I looked up, I saw that Zidie was driving back in a police car. She parked the police car directly in front of me, and complained as soon as she got out of the car, "This guy, Gao Cai, drives a motorcycle like a plane, and he also jumps into the alley, causing me to chase for a long time." Then she took out from the back seat. The cardboard box that Gao Cai just took away.

I took the carton and checked the contents, and found that the four feng shui books were still there, but the hand-written "Book of Changes" was missing. I asked Zidie if she had seen it. She thought about it for a while and said that when Gao Cai gave her the cardboard box, there were only these four books in it, and it was probably hidden by Gao Cai.

Gao Cai gave the four feng shui books to Zi Die, but secretly grabbed the copy of the Book of Changes, which showed that the Book of Changes was the key to the specific location of the treasure. But I have already read the Book of Changes from beginning to end, and there is nothing special in it, except for the inexplicable word "knock" on the last page...

I suddenly remembered Gao Yao's "The drunkard's intention is not to drink", and I couldn't help but shout, "I see!"

"What's wrong with you! It's so loud all of a sudden." Zi Die was startled by me and couldn't help but stare at me.

I smiled apologetically and replied, "I think I already know where Gao Yao's treasure is hidden. We'll take people to the Lychee Garden for treasure hunting tomorrow morning."

"Really?" She looked at me in surprise and said, "How did you know that?"

Madam Mei also cast a surprised look at me: "Did Gao Yao really hide things in the lychee garden? His son has already searched the land there, but he hasn't found it for so many years!"

I smiled at Madam Mei: "If you come to the Lychee Garden tomorrow, you will never imagine that Gao Yao will hide the treasure there." After saying that, I said goodbye to her and drove away with Zi Die. .

As soon as the police car was driven out of the village entrance, Zi Die asked me, "Do you really know where the treasure is hidden? Or is it just acting in front of Madam Mei?"

"Is this a multiple choice question?" I asked pretending to be serious.

She glared at me and said, "Don't say such boring words, just tell me."

I shrugged and smiled: "I know where the treasure is hidden, and I'm also acting in front of Madam Mei."

"Do you really know the location of the treasure?" She looked at me with wide eyes, and then said, "Then what are we waiting for now, we'll dig out the treasure right away!"

I glanced at her with contempt: "I didn't expect you to be so greedy."

She was stunned for a while, and then hit me angrily: "I didn't, I just didn't come back to my senses for a while." It's normal for her to react when faced with treasures. The police can't give up the opportunity to arrest the murderer for the sake of treasure.

"Have you gone the wrong way? Aren't we going to go to Gao Cai to get back the Book of Changes?" Zi Die noticed that I was driving the police car back to the police station.

I replied: "There is no need to ask him back, anyway, he has to go back to the village to sleep, and Madam Mei will tell him that we have discovered the secret in the Book of Changes. He won't go to the Lychee Garden tonight to find the treasure. , there will be no chance tomorrow, and his efforts these days will be in vain."

"That's also..." She nodded, and said after a moment of silence: "What secrets are hidden in the "Book of Changes"? How do you know where the treasures are hidden? And... where are the treasures hidden? Hasn't the Lychee Garden been turned inside and out by Gao Qiang long ago?"

"You have so many questions, you can't figure it out if you think about it." I didn't plan to answer her questions, because it wouldn't take long for her to know the answer.

People are always curious, but they also have self-esteem. Her self-esteem is obviously much stronger than curiosity. I knew she wanted to know the answer, but she didn't ask again.

Just when I was wondering if it was time to give her a hint, the phone rang, and it was Xuejing's call. She called to tell me about the intelligence Gao Shun had gathered...

As night fell, Zidie and I secretly returned to Qianwen Village. To avoid being discovered by Gao Cai, we parked our police car in a neighboring village. Although it is a neighboring village, it took us a lot of time to walk to the lychee garden.

The lychee garden after dark is a good place to hide, and you can get a good cover if you climb on the lychee tree. Purple Butterfly and I hid on the lychee tree next to the overgrown bamboo, and then we waited for a long time.

Waiting is an extremely boring thing. If I usually can talk to Zidie about the mountains, but now I can't, because we don't know when the high fortune will appear. Once Gao Cai discovers our existence, the original plan will definitely fall short, so we can't talk casually, at most we can only wink at each other to pass the time.

However, Zi Die was probably a little resentful that I didn't answer her question before, but now she completely ignores my wink. I'm not a person who is used to being quiet, and I haven't slept all night last night, so it is inevitable that I will feel sleepy during such a boring wait. Just when I was so sleepy that I was about to fall from the tree, Zidie gently pushed me, and I almost fell off with a jolt. Grabbing the branches beside her, she just stabilized her body when she pointed to me not far away. I followed the direction she pointed and found a figure walking into the lychee garden.

Tonight's moonlight is dim, and the lychee branches in the garden are lush and leafy, and the light in the garden is very dim, so I couldn't see the appearance of the person who came, and I could only judge that he was an adult male based on his body shape. However, it doesn't matter if you can't see it clearly, because there are not many people who will come here to stroll at this time.

Sure enough, the visitor did not waste any time after entering the lychee garden, and went straight to the overgrown bamboo. As he approached, I noticed he had brought a shovel. He circled around the clumps of bamboo, stopped before Gao Yao's grave, lifted the shovel without any hesitation and directly inserted it into the raised soil bag - he was digging Gao Yao's grave!

Seeing this, Zi Die wanted to jump off, but I quickly stopped her and signaled her not to worry, just wait and see before making a decision. I did this because I noticed something unusual. If my inference is correct, the treasure is definitely not in Gao Yao's tomb, and Gao Cai must know this, so he can't dig his father's grave. In other words, the person who is digging the grave is not rich.

My inference was soon to be verified, and a male voice suddenly came from the darkness: "Yu Xin, you bastard who eats inside and out, dare to dig my father's grave!" Following the sound, I found another A male figure, judging from his voice, he is the real wealthy man. Then, it should be his subordinate Yu Xin who is digging the grave.

Gao Cai slowly approached Yu Xin, and when he was about five meters away from the clumps of bamboo, I found that he was holding a half-meter-long machete in his hand. Of course, Yu Xin also saw the machete in his hand, and immediately protected his body with a shovel, and said with a far-fetched smile: "Brother Cai, I'm just digging up things for you. It's also your father's grave, how can I let you? Do you do it yourself?"

"I never thought of digging my father's grave, and I didn't ask you to make your own decisions..." Gao Cai suddenly raised his knife and rushed towards Yu Xin, who first resisted with a shovel and then fought back hard.

The two of them came and went, although it was hard to tell the winner for a while, but Gao Cai had the advantage in weapons. It didn't take long for a sharp machete to cut off the wooden handle of the shovel, and it was only a matter of time before Yu Xin died.

Zidie pulled out her pistol and seemed to want to go down and clean up the mess. I stopped her again and whispered in her ear: "You only have one bullet left in your pistol. We won't take much advantage of them together."

Although if we let them continue to fight, people will die sooner or later, but if we go down now, we may not be able to stop them from fighting, and may even be attacked by them. Although Zidie has a pistol, she only has three bullets in total. She used two when she met the fourth woman before, and now there is only one. Even if she can use this bullet to kill one of them, the remaining one will be Not easy to deal with.

Although a pistol without bullets can also act as a deterrent, but that is for ordinary people. Now that these two people have reached a dead end, who can guarantee that they will not jump over the wall in a hurry. Gao Cai owes a lot of debt in the provincial capital, and there is always a way for those loan sharks to find him, it's just a matter of time. If there is something wrong with Gao Cai, Yu Xin must have a hard time, because loan sharks all recognize money but not people. He has been with Gao Cai in the provincial capital for nearly ten years, and it is no wonder that loan sharks will let him go.

Anyway, if they can't get the treasure, they will be killed by loan sharks sooner or later. More importantly, so far we have no key evidence that can be used to testify against the murderer. If we can capture the scene now, then we can save a lot of effort.

Gao Cai is more vicious than I imagined. In the face of his good brother who has been with him for nearly ten years, he is ruthless and goes straight to the opponent's key. From the beginning, Yu Xin has come and gone, attacking and defending each other, and gradually became tired of resisting.

In the end, Gao Cai raised his machete and slashed Yu Xinzhong's shovel into two pieces, leaving fatal wounds on the opponent's body at the same time.

The two who were pregnant with each other had already decided the winner and the loser. Zi Die probably thought the dust had settled, so she gave me a wink and prepared to go down and arrest Gao Cai. I took her arm and gestured to her not to worry. Although Yu Xin was injured, he should not die in a while, and it would not be too late for us to go down after a while. She cast a suspicious look at me, and I whispered in her ear: "The part is not here yet!" Although she was more suspicious, she didn't have too much suspicion about me, and continued to quietly watch Gao Cai's move. One move.

Gao Cai spat at Yu Xin, who was lying on the ground unable to moan, and said disdainfully, "Bastard, eat my stuff, wear my stuff, and yet dare to oppose me..." Then he squatted on the other side. Afterwards, he ignored Yu Xin and circled around the clump of bamboos, showing a posture that he had no idea where to start.

After a while, a young girl's voice sounded in the darkness: "Fourth Uncle, it's so late, why are you here?"

Zidie looked at me with wide eyes, as if surprised that someone walked into the lychee garden again. I smiled back at her indifferently and told her with my eyes that this was something I expected.

The figure of a fit girl appeared from the darkness like a ghost, and slowly approached Gao Cai. Although I didn't see her face clearly, but judging by her figure and voice, she must be - Fifi!

"What are you doing here!" Gao Cai was probably red-eyed and walked towards Feifei with a machete, as if he planned to kill Feifei as well.

Zidie was very nervous and wanted to jump down immediately, but I stopped her. She gave me a suspicious look again, and I nodded to her, signaling that she had to believe me. Although Gao Cai holds a machete, I know that Feifei will not be in danger, and it should be Gao Cai who is in danger.

Feifei walked up to Gao Cai and said anxiously, "I just dreamed of my uncle and the others. They said they were lonely in the underworld and wanted to find more people to be with them."

"Then did they ask you to accompany them?" Gao Cai's tone was three-pointed, and his right hand holding the knife was quietly raised.

However, at this critical juncture, Feifei didn't show the slightest panic, just said quietly: "No, they want you to go down and play mahjong with them..."

"Really? I don't have time, you go and play with them first!" Gao Cai raised his machete and slashed Feifei fiercely, intending to end her young life.

However, his blade did not land on Feifei, but cut to the lychee tree behind Feifei, Feifei's figure avoided this sudden knife like a ghost. He probably didn't expect Feifei to be able to dodge his attack so easily, and after a moment of stunned he pulled the machete out of the tree trunk, ready to raise it again. However, Feifei didn't give him another chance to swing the knife, and the slender arm pointed directly at his throat at the moment of stone fire and electric light.

In Feifei's seemingly weak attack, Gao Cai fell weakly and twitched a few times on the ground. His throat seems to have been punctured, but the situation is probably similar to Yu Xin, and he should not die in a while, it will depend on whether we can send them to the hospital in time.

I instructed Zidie to stay on the tree first, not to show up for the time being, but to have the pistol ready, and then jumped under the tree. Maybe because I didn't sleep all night last night, my feet were a little weak when I landed, and my butt hit the ground, and I almost fell to my death.

Feifei was obviously surprised by my sudden appearance, but she quickly recovered and said coldly, "It turns out that the police officer Mu has already come..." She slowly approached me as she spoke.

Although the light in the garden was very dim, a few rays of moonlight finally penetrated the lush foliage and fell into the garden, bringing a little hope to the dreaded darkness. With the help of a ray of moonlight falling on Feifei, I could see that she was holding a bar-shaped object about 20 centimeters long in her hand, and this thing was the deadly weapon that killed the Gao brothers - the judge's pen!
