"Don't talk!" Wu Song shouted softly. He was still carrying Liu Qi as he walked along the roof and landed under the courtyard wall. Then, he jumped out of the courtyard wall. Only then did he put down Liu Qi and said,"Follow me!"”Hence, he strode forward, and Liu Qi hurriedly followed.
The two of them passed through the streets and alleys, avoiding pedestrians, and soon arrived at the Lai residence. Liu Qi was so tired that he could not stop panting, so the two of them leaned against the wall to rest. Wu Song then picked up Liu Qi and flew into the Lai residence. Lai Mansion was not big, with only a few rooms in front and behind, and no patrolling guards. Therefore, the two of them quickly found Lai Cheng's residence. They lifted the roof tiles and saw Lai Cheng whistling under the lamp, playing with the two grasshoppers in the cage.
Wu Song was often summoned to the county government before, and Lai Cheng was a frequent visitor to the county government, so he remembered his appearance. Wu Song said in a low voice," You stay on the roof and don't move. I'll come up immediately!"”After removing two or three tiles, he estimated that he could pass through, so he jumped down. Lai Cheng heard the noise and before he could ask anything, he only felt a figure flash past. Wu Song had already punched him in the back of his neck, knocking him out. He carried him on his shoulder and jumped up, climbing onto the beam and onto the roof. The entire action was done in one go. In the blink of an eye, Liu Qi could not help but be stunned.
Wu Song didn't say a word. He carried a knife on his waist, Lai Cheng on his left shoulder, and Liu Qi under his right armpit. He ran along the ridge of the roof and soon arrived at a dense forest in the suburbs. He threw Lai Cheng on the ground and pinched his collarbone. Lai Cheng woke up in pain. He looked around and then looked at Wu Song and Liu Qi. He asked in panic,"Who are you? Where is this place?" Just as he was about to get up and escape, Wu Song held him down with the back of his saber and shouted,"Don't move!"
"Hero, spare me! Hero, spare me!" Lai Cheng couldn't escape, so he quickly said softly," As long as you spare my dog life, I, Lai Cheng, am willing to hand over the Lai Clan's Wanguan family property…"
"Who wants your family property?" Wu Song shouted sternly," To tell you the truth, I'm a good friend of the butler of the Li family, Liu San. Seeing that he died in a strange way, I figured that there must be something else, so I came to ask you about it!”
When Lai Cheng heard that it was because of Liu San, his face instantly turned pale. He said,"I didn't kill Liu San. I didn't kill him. I really didn't! Hero, don't malign a good person!”
"Then who killed him?" Wu Song flipped the knife and the edge of the knife went down, cutting into Lai Cheng's neck. With a slight force, Lai Cheng's neck was cut open and blood seeped out. Lai Cheng was so scared that he wet his pants. His lips trembled as he said,"Hero, hero, I'll talk, I'll talk!”
Wu Song felt strange. He was the one who killed Liu San, but Lai Cheng could say something. He said,"Hurry up and tell me!"
Lai Cheng said,"I fought with that Liu Sanwei for the red pearl of the Apricot Garden. Later, he hired a group of people to beat me into a cripple so that I couldn't have sex." Because of this, I held a grudge in my heart, so I hired an assassin and asked him to sneak into Li Village to take Liu San's dog life..."
"You're the one with a dog's life!" Liu Qi said angrily.
"Good, good. It's not a dog's life, it's a human life.”Lai Cheng hurriedly changed his words." The killer infiltrated the Li Family Residence several times, but he couldn't find Liu San, so he didn't succeed. I also felt that this matter violated the law, so I told him that there was no need to kill Liu San anymore. However, after an unknown number of days, they heard that Liu San was killed in the forest of the Li family's courtyard for no reason. The next day, the killer came to me for money and said that he killed Liu San. I complained to him. Didn't I tell you not to kill Liu San? Why did you still kill him? I can't give you this money, not because I'm stingy, but because I didn't use you to kill anyone! Who would have thought that I would anger that killer and even want to kill me? I had no choice but to give him money. Hero, although I started to kill people deliberately, I know that I have changed my ways. You shouldn't blame me! I told the killer that he didn't need to kill anyone…"
Wu Song immediately understood and thought, This is really a coincidence!”"What's the killer's name?"”
Lai Cheng said," That killer's surname is Duan, and his name is Yichun. He was originally a Daoist, but he still dresses like one now. He's a demon who kills without batting an eyelid. His nickname is Raging Fire Silver Fox. His lightness skill is excellent, and he can leap on roofs and walk on walls as if he's walking on flat ground. He's really powerful!"”
"Could it be the rapist wanted by the authorities, Duan Yichun?" Wu Song asked.”
"Yes, yes!" Lai Cheng said," It's him! Since you know him, go find him and take revenge. Spare me!”
" Hmph!" Wu Song snorted and said," Duan Yichun, Raging Fire Silver Fox. Although he has some skills, he's not a good man!" It was said that he had plucked countless flowers. When he met a woman who was more unyielding, he would directly kill her and then do that dirty thing with the corpse. It was really infuriating! Where is he now?"
"I don't know about that. I only recently heard that he often goes to the Apricot Garden to meet Tongzhu privately." Although Tong Zhu was unwilling, she could only reluctantly comply due to his martial strength. Apricot Garden had reported to the government, and the officials had deployed troops to capture him several times, but he still managed to escape. One could imagine that his ability was extraordinary. Later on, the officials also became lazy and pretended to be bluffing. If a hero wants to find him, go to the Apricot Garden. He will go there once every two days.”
"Are you telling the truth?" Wu Song asked.”
"It's absolutely true, I swear to God!" Lai Cheng said.”
" Alright." Wu Song took out a piece of paper, unfolded it, and said,""What you said is no different from what I guessed. I've already written it here. You only need to sign it! I, Wu Er, am a person who knows the law and will never kill the innocent. As for how the yamen will deal with you, it will depend on your luck.”She handed the paper to Lai Cheng and took out a pen.
Liu Qi looked at Wu Song uneasily and said softly,""How can you tell him your true identity?”
Wu Song said sternly," A real man doesn't change his name when he's alive. He doesn't change his surname when he's dead. He's upright and upright. Why don't you dare to tell others?"”As he spoke, he pulled off the black cloth covering his face. In fact, he was already clear that he no longer needed to hide his true colors. After solving such a big case, it was time to show off his might.
"So it's Swordsman Wu Er. No wonder he's so amazing.”At this juncture, Lai Cheng still couldn't forget to flatter Wu Song.
"It's Wu Song. He's now taking over Liu San's position as the housekeeper of Li Jia Village.”Wu Song said loudly," Cut the crap, quickly sign the agreement!”
Lai Cheng took a pen and paper and looked carefully under the moonlight, but he hesitated and refused to start writing. Wu Song suddenly thought of something. He snatched the pen and paper, put the tip of the pen into his mouth, and wrote on the paper: "The killer's name is Duan Yichun, nicknamed Blazing Silver Fox.”He hadn't thought of this beforehand, so he didn't write down the killer's real name. He then handed a pen and paper to Lai Cheng and said,"Hurry up and write!"
Liu Qi looked at Wu Song with admiration and said in a low voice,"Steward Wu, you're really thoughtful!"
