Looking at the death of the person on the bed, the police officer took a few glances and roughly figured out the cause of death. Several police officers in the room searched around, some opened the window and looked up and down, and some leaned down and looked under the bed.

The catcher looked at the door. Except for a few colleagues blocking the door, the innkeeper and waiters outside, as well as many other residents were looking inside, and there was no sound of discussion.

"Who was traveling with the deceased, or who knew the deceased?"

Upon hearing the questioning from the head catcher inside, everyone outside looked at each other, and some people subconsciously shook their heads.

"Shopkeeper, are you not impressed either?"

The shopkeeper and the innkeeper looked around, seeming to be looking for the companions of the deceased. It was only then that a restless guest squeezed closer to the door and spoke.

"I am"

Everyone around looked at the person who spoke. The head catcher took a few steps closer to the door and looked at the person speaking up and down. He was a middle-aged man with a round face but not a bloated figure. He had a short beard and was well-dressed.

It's just that the man's clothes are not neat and tidy at the moment. He obviously got up in a hurry from his sleep. His face is also a little pale, and he must be in shock.

"What is your relationship? What are you doing in Haiyu County?"

The man answered quickly.

"Master Cha, that person inside is my servant. He has been with me for many years. Because I am greedy, I came to Haiyu County from other places to taste seafood."

The head catcher's gaze swept around, and he narrowed his eyes to look at this outsider who didn't look like the perpetrator.——

About half an hour later, in the county government office, the head catcher reported to the county magistrate Guan Xinrui about the situation in the inn there in the study room of the official residence.

"Sir, the deceased in the inn was covered to death with a quilt. The perpetrator was very strong. The deceased had heavy bath marks on his face. His luggage had been turned over and some belongings were missing. In addition, some guests in the inn were not familiar with the inn. The person doesn’t seem to be the murderer.”

The head catcher is a person with experience in handling cases, and he said a lot in detail. Although these are only his preliminary judgments, they can also be used as an important reference.

Guan Xinrui was slightly impatient.

"I know, but have you ever asked who is carrying that thing?"

The catcher understood what the county magistrate was concerned about and quickly answered.

"Sir, the person holding that thing is the deceased's employer. He quietly told me that he suspected that someone wanted to steal the treasure in his hand, which is why the servant died!"

A look of surprise appeared on Guan Xinrui's face, and then he frowned. It seems that someone else wants dragon scales?

"Have you ever seen what his treasure is?"

"Looking at it, it was wrapped in cloth and looked like glazed tiles, but he said it was dragon scales. It's simply ridiculous."

As the police officer said this, he suddenly noticed that the county magistrate looked very serious.

"In that case, take the foreigner Fu Changyu to the county government immediately and take him into custody."

"this"

The catcher took a few steps closer.

"Sir, the suspicion of Fu Changyu is relatively minor, but he is considered an indirect victim. Isn't it appropriate to imprison him?"

"Then tell him to protect him in the county government office. The things on this person may be related to the imperial government and the country. A commoner is walking around with him. What if it is really taken away by someone with intentions?"

The head catcher was slightly startled, the imperial government? Could it be that the county magistrate is talking about the so-called "dragon scales"?

"What about the other people in the inn?"

Guan Xinrui glanced at the catcher.

"You can just do whatever you want. You're an old catcher too. You don't need me to teach you anything, right? Go!"

"yes!"

The head catcher felt a shiver in his heart. He hurriedly accepted the order and resigned. He hurriedly returned to the direction of the inn, thinking deeply at the same time.

But some things are just a matter of thinking about it. You have to look at the face of the county magistrate to get a bite of the food you serve as a servant. You just have to do whatever is ordered.

Soon, Fu Changyu, a foreigner at the inn, was taken to the county government by several officials. Of course, this was not considered a detention. It seemed that the former was very afraid and did not resist.

The murder case in the inn had been going on for half a night. The body of the deceased was carried away by the government officials and taken to the county government morgue. The inn gradually calmed down.

It's just that after all, someone died tonight, and many residents in the inn are somewhat uneasy. However, the county government has left a servant to guard the inn, and no one inside is allowed to come in or out easily. They have to wait for the investigation tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Then live.

Outside the inn, on the roof of a building, a man in dark clothes was lying quietly, watching the noise in the inn dozens of steps away, and finally waiting for everything in the inn to calm down.

At this time, the man in dark clothes stood up slowly, but when he turned around, his heart jumped suddenly. There was a person standing a few steps away from him, and he couldn't help but jump back a foot.

"who?"

The questioning voice was full of fear and anxiety.

At this moment, Ao Po turned to look at the man with an indifferent expression. Unlike the other man who had his head covered with bread, Ao Po did not bother to hide his face at all and just said lightly.

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you this?"

Obviously, the man in night clothes was the murderer of the Fu family servant in the inn, but he had been hiding here.

Ao Po couldn't help but think about it at this moment. Is it really like what was said in the movie in his previous life, that the murderer likes to secretly watch the crime scene from a distance?

Of course, this thought was fleeting, and Ao Bo was full of doubts in his heart now.

When Ao Po took a step, the man in night clothes immediately took two steps back.

After all, if he appeared beside me quietly without being noticed by himself, the person's martial arts might be far better than his own.

With this thought in mind, the man barely hesitated for a moment. He jumped out of the roof in an instant, used Qing Kung Fu to land on the roof of another house in the distance, and then quickly escaped with a light step, skimming the eaves and walls.

Ao Po just watched the other person leave. After taking a breath, he took a step forward and flew away with a breeze. In just two breaths, he was already in front of the man.

But when he saw Ao Po falling in front and blocking the way, the man was horrified. He subconsciously looked back. He didn't even hear the slightest movement just now.

There was no sound of toes hitting the roof tiles, or even the sound of shaking clothes in the air. If there was, it was only the faint sound of wind!

"Let me ask"

Ao Po said half a sentence lightly, and then stretched out his right hand.

"woo woo woo woo"

It was as if a strong wind was ringing in his ears, and it was more like falling into an abyss without any force, except that the abyss was horizontal.

The man's figure unexpectedly rose up from the ground uncontrollably, and while struggling and waving his hands and feet in the air, he flew directly towards the man seven or eight steps away.

"Pa~"

"Well"

At this moment, Ao Po's right hand was in the shape of a claw and had already grabbed the man's neck. His tall body made it possible for him to get the man's feet off the ground without raising his arms too high.

Even though he had martial arts skills, the man felt powerless at this moment. Even with his struggle, he tried his best to grab the opponent's arm with both hands, but it seemed to be grasping on an iron block. Severe pain was accompanied by a sense of suffocation and a strong sense of fear. His feet Shaking, he kicked his legs slightly.

"Uh-huh. Huh-huh."

Until this moment, Ao Po continued to speak the second half of his sentence.

".Who are you?"

Dragons are naturally powerful. While their true intentions remain unchanged, in some respects, dragon changes naturally have a bit of their own temperament. Ao Po can't beat around the bush with the person in front of him.

The man's face turned slightly purple. He couldn't breathe and felt strong oppression. He only felt that death was approaching.

And the method just now is simply unbelievable. Rather than saying it is peerless martial arts, it may be magic!

At this time, Ao Po's right hand loosened slightly, and the man grabbed his arm with both hands. His body hung in the air, panting violently like a wild dog that was almost drowned.

"Ho ho, ho, ho."

Ao Po's expression was still indifferent, and then he looked sideways at the man.

"Tell me! I don't want to ask a second time!"

The man's face was already covered with sweat, and his heart was even more frightened. If he didn't say anything, he would definitely die, and even the idea of ​​​​prevarication would not come up now.

"I said, I said I, I had a strange dream, a strange dream, there was someone in the dream, someone asked me to help, help attract the attention of the county government, let, let the dragon, dragon and dragon scale"

"Let the dragon scales fall into the hands of the government?"

The man struggled to nod but couldn't, but his expression roughly indicated his agreement.

"Yes, that's right! I saw a lot in my dream, and it seemed that I would be rewarded with glory and wealth, and my wishes would come true. I don't know why, but I seemed to be possessed by a ghost."

"Hmph! Let's see what he gives you in return."

Saying this, Ao Po squeezed hard with his right hand, and the eyes of the person in his hand turned white and closed, and there was no movement at all.

Hui Mian poked his head out from his collar.

"Sir, did you kill him?"

"That's not all. Didn't I say, let's see what he can get in return."

Hui Mian nodded, jumped on Ao Po's shoulder and looked in the direction of the sea.

"As you guessed, these scales were definitely not caught by the fisherman's luck."

Ao Po didn't say much, and threw the person in his hand casually. The person seemed to fall to the ground in the distance with a gust of wind, and finally landed on a piece of mud overgrown with weeds.

Although it wasn't light when it landed, it wasn't as heavy as it looked.

"Sir, should we go to the Beihai Dragon Palace? This matter may have something to do with the Beihai Dragon Clan!"

"It's not a good relationship to be afraid of. For Beihai Dragon Lord, there is no secret as long as you have the intention to do things at sea. It is impossible for him not to know about the resentment that accompanied the tide and sea breeze before."

"Huh? Then he doesn't care?"

Hui Mian looked back at the gentleman's face in surprise. The latter looked thoughtful, but did not answer.
