The coincidence of the time when Li Chengfeng's house was stolen makes people feel a little unreal, and the sword was also stolen.

The theft in broad daylight was very strange. Besides, why should I steal that knife? It was heavy, long and difficult to hold.

Full of questions, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang arrived at the door of Li Chengfeng's house.

The stolen warehouse of the Li family was in the backyard, and all the yamen servants were there. Several detectives from the Lin'an Prefecture were questioning the servants of the Li family one by one, and a master was drawing a portrait based on everyone's descriptions.

At this time, the Li family's housekeeper came, followed by a well-dressed middle-aged man who looked a little gloomy and frowned.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang guessed that he might be Li Chengfeng, and sure enough, after being introduced by the housekeeper, this person was indeed the head of the Li family, Li Chengfeng.

When Li Chengfeng saw Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, the first thing he said was, "It's all the fault of that bastard Li Chengde. He provoked some Jianghu people for no reason, and as a result, I even suffered!"

Zhan Zhao asked for details.

The housekeeper of the Li family said, "Some warriors just broke into the backyard, kidnapped a few boys who were cleaning up the warehouse, and asked them where they kept their knives."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, but they did not expect this development.

"The gang broke into the warehouse, took away the knives, and also took away a lot of valuable things." The housekeeper was also very angry, "Then they climbed over the courtyard wall and went out!"

"Then have you seen the faces of those people?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"The group of people all had their faces covered, but the hand of the leader seemed to be injured and was wrapped in gauze."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were both stunned, their hands were injured...

"Why do you blame Li Chengde?" Zhan Zhao asked Li Chengfeng.

"He is the one who gets into trouble every time. If he hadn't interfered with the gangsters this time to choose the leader, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened." Li Chengfeng said angrily, "How many times have I told him, that knife is

It was passed down from our ancestors, so don't show it off. If you are targeted by someone with ulterior motives, you might get a bloody disaster. It would be better for him to lend someone a sword to compete with, but the sword broke and he was targeted by those gangsters.

Already..."

Zhan Zhao felt that Li Chengfeng had something to say, so he asked, "Liu Yuanwai, do you think these thieves are the Jianghu sect that just participated in the competition in Li Garden?"

"Who else could it be?" Li Chengfeng said angrily.

At this time, the Yamen police officer came with the portrait the master had drawn and handed it to Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang.

The master mainly drew the appearance of the main criminal. Although his face was covered, the exposed part looked a bit like Mo Muyu. In addition, the master also drew the man's hands based on the descriptions of the boys. The method of bandaging should be injured.

Little finger.

Zhan Zhao stared at the painting for a long time without saying anything. He returned the painting to the policeman and asked, "How many people witnessed it at that time?"

"There were a total of five people who came to participate in the theft. There were three servants at the scene at the time. Later, more than a dozen nursing homes from the Li family chased after them. However, those people were very good at qinggong and had already escaped."

Zhan Zhao nodded.

The policeman asked Zhan Zhao, "Master Zhan, do you want to draw shadows and patterns to arrest these people?"

Zhan Zhao thought for a while, took the painting away again, and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Several police officers from the Yamen looked at each other.

Li Chengfeng heard this and raised his head, seemingly a little dissatisfied, "Why don't you arrest these people? So that you can recover the losses of my family..."

Zhan Zhao nodded without saying much and asked Li Chengfeng, "I want to go to the warehouse."

Li Chengfeng seemed a little angry, but still reluctantly motioned to the housekeeper to lead the way.

"Commissioner Li, please come with us. I happen to have something I want to ask you about." Zhan Zhao asked Li Chengfeng to go with him.

The Fifth Master followed them into the Li Mansion, and saw several Lin'an Mansion policemen and government officials who seemed puzzled as to why Zhan Zhao didn't let them draw shadows and patterns to arrest the prisoners.

The previous martial arts competition in Li Yuan caused a stir in the city, and many people knew that Zhan Zhao had become the leader of the Jiangnan League.

And looking at that picture, it seems that the main suspect is Mo Muyu, that is to say, he is from the Jiangnan League... So is Zhan Zhao deliberately showing favoritism?

But although the government officials were suspicious, they didn't quite believe it. Zhan Zhao had always had a good reputation for impartiality in enforcing the law in Kaifeng Mansion for so long...

Bai Yutang looked at the policemen and government servants, feeling a little helpless.

If the government officials only had trust in Zhan Zhao before, then after he became the leader of the Jiangnan League this time, the government officials became suspicious of him. For the same reason, the people in the Jianghu did not trust Zhan Zhao, and they also followed him in the public affairs.

There are relationships……

The Fifth Master also knew that it would be difficult for Zhan Zhao to be caught in the middle. How should he deal with it?

Zhan Zhao didn't seem to care. As he walked, he asked Li Chengfeng, "Is the knife stolen from member Li the same as the knife Li Chengde took out when Li Yuan was fighting just now?"

"Absolutely." Li Chengfeng said, "We don't know martial arts and haven't studied it carefully."

"How many heirlooms do the Li family have? Or is it just this knife?"

"There are a lot of family heirlooms, but there have been no warriors in my family for several generations, so a sword passed down is more special."

"Oh." Zhan Zhao nodded, and then asked, "About the money boss who rents in your small building..."

Before Zhan Zhao finished asking, Li Chengfeng sighed, "Master Zhan, I have told the Yamen many times, and I don't know what he does!"

Zhan Zhao waved his hand to signal him not to get excited, "I just want to ask, has Boss Qian seen your knife?"

Li Chengfeng was stunned and shook his head, "Of course not. My knives have never left the warehouse...but..."

After a pause, Li Chengfeng said, "Maybe he has seen it at Li Chengde's place, not necessarily."

Zhan Zhao glanced at him and asked, "Does he know Li Chengde?"

"I heard from my subordinates that Li Chengde always goes to his money-losing bathhouse when he has nothing to do. Who knows." Li Chengfeng sneered, "I just said he was stupid enough to open a bathhouse on such a good piece of land.

Who knows what's going on here."

The fifth master frowned after hearing this - is it different from what Li Chengde said...

"Is it Li Chengde who wants to open a bathhouse?" Zhan Zhao looked surprised, "He said you asked him to open it."

"What?!" Li Chengfeng became angry when he heard this, "He farted, how could I ask about his business? Besides, he won't listen to me!"

"Oh...Does it seem like he is deliberately framing you?" Zhan Zhao continued to look disbelieving and shook his head.

"What did he say about me?!" Li Chengfeng asked.

"Oh, he said you were an accomplice with Boss Qian."

Zhan Zhao suddenly said something straightforward and looked at Li Chengfeng after speaking.

Li Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, then stamped his feet, "I'll go find him!"

After saying that, he started to walk out, but Zhan Zhao didn't stop him.

The housekeeper quickly went up to stop his family members.

Li Chengfeng trembled in anger, "Li Chengde spits out blood! He wants to put a shit basin on my head! It's so ridiculous!"

Bai Yutang stood aside with his hands behind his back, looking at Li Chengfeng.

After working with Zhan Zhao on investigating cases for a long time, Master Wu gradually gained some experience, especially in judging whether a person is lying and whether he is hiding anything.

Usually, if a person is wronged, what he is most anxious about is to defend himself, usually with words such as "I didn't! I'm not!".

And if there is something hidden in it, some people's reaction will be greater than the content of what he said. The most obvious situation is that he behaves very angry, but cannot say anything practical, which seems a bit "exaggerated".

This is usually because he is asked a "sudden" question, and he needs time to think of the next countermeasure. But he can't stand there and think about it during this time, so he can only express his anger as exaggeratedly as possible... Li Chengfeng said this

The performance at the time is particularly consistent with this situation.

Zhan Zhao smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and patted Li Chengfeng on the shoulder, "Oh, Mr. Li, don't be angry. The yamen will rely on real evidence when investigating the case, and will not believe one side of the story."

Li Chengfeng stared at Zhan Zhao's eyes.

The Fifth Master nodded silently - Li Chengfeng must have enjoyed the treat of the Demon King's Eyes.

After Zhan Zhao "comforted" Li Chengfeng, he took his hand away from his shoulder, turned around, and continued walking to the warehouse.

Bai Yutang noticed that Zhan Zhao frowned slightly and his expression was quite serious. He probably made some big discovery.

The Li family's warehouse is a very common warehouse where rich people store things. The walls and doors are very thick, and the roof has been reinforced. However, according to Xiaosimen's description, the thieves took advantage of them while they were cleaning up the warehouse to enter.

, so there are no signs of damage to the door lock.

The Li family has a large business, and there are many treasures in the warehouse. Several shelves for storing things fell over, and boxes and boxes were scattered on the floor.

Judging from the scene, it is indeed consistent with the situation where the murderer came to steal the knife and then took advantage of it.

Zhan Zhao asked the steward, "Where is the knife placed?"

The butler pointed to a shelf in the corner.

Zhan Zhao walked over and took a look, "It's very casual."

"Oh, it's not a valuable treasure." The butler replied casually.

"Then what is the most valuable treasure in your family?" Zhan Zhao suddenly asked out of curiosity.

"Uh..." The housekeeper was also stunned by Zhan Zhao's question. He felt that the question he asked was so cold-hearted and different from ordinary Yamen detectives...

The housekeeper looked at Li Chengfeng subconsciously.

Li Chengfeng looked around in the warehouse and seemed unsure of which item was the most valuable. This situation was somewhat similar to Bai Yutang who walked into his own warehouse.

"Were those boys just sorting out the warehouse?" Zhan Zhao didn't seem to be obsessed with the answer to the question, so he changed the question.
To be continued...
