A Clash of Gods - Chapter 988

[Chapter 978]

Qi Ning’s words stabbed out like a sharp knife, Xin Ci was stunned, opened his mouth slightly, and seemed to want to say something, but Qi Ning had already raised his hand to stop him: “General Xin, you don’t need to say more, in fact Many things can’t be said right or wrong. (The fastest update)” He looked up at the sky and said: “General Xin was sent to the East China Sea, and it is naturally an important task to be in charge of the military affairs of the East China Sea Division, but the most important task of this trip is I’m afraid it’s still to investigate the death of the Grand Governor, right?”

Xin Ci stared at Qi Ning, and finally sighed: “Master Hou, I will really accept it at the end of the day. Although Master Hou is young, he is very insightful about world affairs. No wonder the old master praised the young master as not in the pool. At the end of the day, I will finally understand what the old marquis means.”

Qi Ning shook his head with a smile and said, “It’s nothing more than a little overthinking. I came to the East China Sea, but the old man was worried that I would cause chaos in the capital, and General Xin came to the East China Sea to really investigate the case. General Xin is very familiar with the East China Sea Navy, and investigating this case is naturally more effective.” With a slight smile, he said, “Actually, I am really not used to the climate here in the East China Sea. Since General Xin is here to preside over the overall situation, it would be better. .”

Xin Ci hesitated for a while, and finally asked: “Master Hou has been in the East China Sea for several days. I wonder if Master Hou has found some clues about the matter of the Great Governor?”

“General Xin also said that the Marquis can only travel to the East China Sea for a few days.” Qi Ning sighed, “I don’t know anything about the East China Sea. In fact, after I got here, I really have no idea what to do. The old marquis actually thinks it well. The environment in the East China Sea is intricate and complicated. How can I sort out my thoughts in just a few days? Everything depends on General Xin’s careful investigation. Fortunately, the overall situation has been determined, and the old Houye has worked hard, but it is not a problem. The Donghai Marine Division has fallen into the hands of others, General Xin has no worries, and he only needs to focus on investigating the truth.”

Xin Ci hesitated, but did not speak.

The group accelerated and approached Gulin City. Qi Ning slowed down again, looked at Xin Ci, and suddenly asked, “General Xin, have you heard of gluttonous food?”

“Taotie?” Xin Ci was a little strange, but he nodded and said, “That is one of the four ancient beasts, gluttonous, eating tigers and swallowing elephants!”

“Yes, it is said that the gluttonous food was not that great at the beginning.” Qi Ning said with a smile: “It’s just that it is gluttonous, non-stop day and night, and its appetite is getting bigger and bigger. I want to devour the sky.”

Xin Ci is not stupid after all, he already understood what Qi Ning meant at this time.

“Old Marquis is a wise man, could he let the gluttony’s appetite grow bigger and bigger?” Qi Ning sighed, “Could it be that the Tantai family never thought that if this gluttonous eater one day has an unstoppable appetite , will they feed on the Tantai family?” He stopped waiting for Xin Ci to say more, slapped the horse and galloped, and the group reached the city gate, called the gate open, and entered the city directly.

Back at the inn, it was already late at night. Qi Ning told Wu Dalin and others to go down to rest first. This time they went to sea for several days. In fact, everyone really didn’t have a good rest. Naturally, they had to recharge their batteries.

Wei Yujiang knew that Qi Ning had returned to the inn, and immediately came over.

“Wei Sishen, did you guys stay in the inn for the past few days and didn’t leave without permission?” Qi Ning changed his clothes before coming out to talk to Wei Yujiang.

“Master Hou has given orders, so everyone has not gone out for a few days.” Wei Yujiang replied: “But that Qin Facao came twice, it seems that he has something urgent to visit Master Hou.”

“Qin Yuege?”

“Yes.” Wei Yujiang said, “Qin Yuege didn’t see the Marquis, so he didn’t say much about what happened. But he doesn’t look good in the post, so it shouldn’t be a good thing.”

Qi Ning thought to himself that at such a time, there would not really be anything good in the East China Sea, and ordered: “If he comes again, you can just ask him to come and see me.” After a while, he said, “Let everyone come over. Get ready, let’s set off and return to Beijing in the next few days.”

Wei Yujiang was a little surprised and said anxiously, “Master Hou, are we going back to Beijing?”

Qi Ning smiled lightly and said, “The Golden Swordsman has already sent a more suitable person to investigate this case.

There is no need for us to stay any longer.

(The fastest update from the uc book alliance) The Governor of Tantai should be buried at sea in the past few days. After attending the funeral of the Governor, it is time for us to go back.

”

Wei Yujiang frowned slightly, and couldn’t help but say: “Master Hou, Jindaohou sent someone over again, do you not trust us?”

Qi Ning thought that from the very beginning, the Tantai family never thought about letting us investigate the truth. That old fox was just a trick to sway the tiger away from the mountain, but it was not easy to tell Wei Yujiang more about this kind of thing. A report came from outside: “Master Hou, Qin Yuege asks to see you!”

“Oh?” Qi Ning smiled and said, “This Qin Facao has eyes and came so quickly.” He ordered Chuan Qin Yuege to meet him.

Qin Yuege was dressed as always, and after entering the house, she saw Qi Ning, and Qi Ning said with a straight-to-the-point smile: “I heard that Qin Facao has been here twice, seems to be urgent to see me?” He raised his hand and said: ” Sit down and talk.”

“Master Hou, I’m humbled and guilty, and I ask Master Hou to convict him!” Qin Yuege suddenly knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty.

Qi Ning was a little surprised and frowned, “What happened?”

Qin Yuege said, “Reporting to Lord Hou, Tian Dong’s family from the Tian Family Medicine Store has been missing for two days, and their whereabouts are unknown!”

Qi Ning’s face changed suddenly, and he lost his voice: “Mrs. Tian? You mean!” He took a few steps forward and said solemnly, “Qin Yuege, what happened? How did Mrs. Tian disappear?”

Qin Yuege cupped his hands and said, “Master Hou, at noon yesterday, President Miao of the Pharmaceutical Industry Chamber of Commerce went to the yamen to report the case, saying that Tian Dong’s family had not returned for the night, and he did not leave any message. He was worried that Tian Dong’s family was It’s not that something happened. I immediately went to investigate. Tian Dong’s family had never been out for the night before, and it was unusual to leave suddenly and silently. I checked Tian Dong’s residence, and all the luggage was there, but only Missing Tian Dong’s house.”

Qi Ning was very worried.

This time, Tian Xuerong came to the East China Sea with Qi Ning’s team. It was naturally very safe along the way. When he arrived at the East China Sea, he had been staying in the Chamber of Commerce. Tian Xuerong was usually cautious. Qi Ning never imagined that she would suddenly disappear. .

“Can you send someone to look for it?”

Qin Yuege said: “Biezhi has sent people to search secretly in the city, and President Miao has also assisted in inquiring. Tian Dong’s family is new to the East China Sea, and he doesn’t know much about where he lives. I have searched all the places I have been to, but there is still no news of her. Last night, Tian Dong’s family didn’t return overnight. At present, I have some clues, but I still can’t find the whereabouts of Tian Dong’s family. ”

“What clue?”

“In the evening of the day before yesterday, a carriage was parked in front of the hall, and the driver asked the doorman of the hall to send a letter to Tian Dong’s house.” Qin Yuege took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it to Qi Ning with both hands: “Tian After reading the letter, the owner cleaned up and went out to take the carriage away, and since then, there has been no trace.”

Qi Ning quickly opened the letter and glanced at it, his face was gloomy, his eyes were like a knife: “This is fake!”

“The letter said that Lord Hou invited Tian Dong’s family to go to the beach to watch the rising tide.” Qin Yuege said: “The signing was also left by Lord Hou. In order to make sure that this matter is true, I sent someone to inquire. Lord Hou went to sea four days ago. It’s impossible to invite Tian Dong’s family to watch the tide the day before yesterday, so there must be something strange in this letter.”

Qi Ning sneered: “This is someone stealing my handwriting. Since the other party did this, it was a deliberate trap.” He frowned and asked, “Have you followed the clues of that carriage?”

“I have already found the carriage.” Qin Yuege said: “There is a dead wood forest only ten miles south of the city, and the carriage was abandoned in the dead wood forest. After inspecting the carriage, I found nothing but one. It’s just a small sachet.” It was brought over, Qi Ning took it, it was a small sachet, and at first glance it was a woman’s thing, so it was naturally something Tian Xuerong left on the carriage.

“Not everyone in the East China Sea can own a carriage.” Qi Ning’s expression was serious: “Since the carriage has been found, can you find the source of the carriage?”

“It’s the carriage of Xu Ji’s carriage and horse shop. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com” Qin Yuege immediately said: “Xu Ji carriage and horse shop is the largest carriage and horse shop in the East China Sea, and it can rent carriages and horses to the outside world. Xu Ji’s carriage and horse shop, and the owner of Xu Ji’s carriage and horse shop personally confirmed that there was absolutely no mistake. I also personally checked the leased account book at the carriage and horse shop. The day before yesterday afternoon, the carriage was rented, and a deposit was left. Said to rent for three days.”

“Who is renting?”

“The name must be fake.” Qin Yuege said: “As long as you leave a sufficient deposit for renting a car and horse, you don’t need to leave your real name.” Qin Yuege frowned and said, “So the trouble is at this time. Here. The man’s name was Zhang San, which must be a pseudonym, and according to the description of the car and horse shop, the man’s appearance is unremarkable, and there is nothing special about him, but his skin is very dark, and he looks like a fisherman who often goes out to sea.”

“Fishermen?”

Qin Yuege nodded: “We carefully surveyed the dead wood forest and found the footprints. If the investigation is good and the carriage was left behind the dead wood forest, the man took Tian Dong’s house all the way to the south, and after walking about three or four miles, he appeared. Horseshoe prints.”

“Can you follow the horseshoe prints?”

“This morning, I personally led people to follow the horseshoe prints.” Qin Yuege said: “The horseshoe prints took half a circle to reach the beach, and then disappeared in the ghost gate cliff!”

“Ghost Cliff?” Qi Ning frowned, “What is that?”

“It’s a sea cliff on the East China Sea.” Qin Yuege explained: “The terrain is quite high, and the cliffs are full of strange rocks. Li Gui Qihao is very terrifying. Moreover, there have been many people jumping off the cliff to commit suicide at the Guimen Cliff, and some people say that there are ghosts there, so at night, almost no one dares to approach the Guimen Cliff.”

Qi Ning’s eyes were like knives, and he said coldly, “You mean, someone brought Tian Dong’s house to Guimenya?”
