Chapter 140: A Promising Lead

When a police officer from the Ministry of Justice searched the vicinity of the Guandi Temple, he found the man lying in the bushes on a slope behind the temple.

He stepped forward to test the air, and found that there was still gas circulating in the air. He realized that the man must breathed in the gas and just fainted, so he immediately reported to Lu Ziqing.

When Lu Ziqing and his party arrived on the slope, Zhan Zhao, the chief inspector of the Criminal Division, was squatting on the ground and pinching the man.

After some pinching, the man woke up leisurely.

The man had big shoulders and round waist, and his face was full of flesh. After he became awake, he sat up, raised his eyes and met a pair of sharp eyes, staring back at him. A serious and stern young man in a purple robe was staring at him domineeringly, causing his heart to tremble unconsciously. 

Seeing all the officials around him, his face was full of fear for a while, and he fell on the ground tremblingly, and said with a shaky voice. "Masters, the young has always been law-abiding, and has never done anything bad, please forgive me!"

Lu Ziqing frowned and said coldly, "Who are you and why did you faint here?"

There was a momentary daze on the man's face, as if trying to remember, and he was silent for a while.

The old village chief of Guanjia Village arrived in a hurry at this time. Seeing this, he moved forward quickly and hunched over and replied, "Master Lu, this is the butcher in our village, named Guan Wu."

He stared at Guan Wu and scolded: "Guan Wu, this is Mr. Lu, the Minister of Justice. Mr. Lu is asking you something. If you don't answer quickly, don't blame us for being rude. What are you doing in a daze?"

Guan Wu.shrank, as if he had remembered something, and said anxiously, "Sir, Wu remembered, this morning, Wu went to a neighboring village to kill pigs, and when he passed by Guandi Temple, he saw a few people dressed in black. The people were sneaky, and there was something on their shoulders. The little one saw that they were very suspicious, so he followed them secretly. When the little one saw that they had entered the Guandi Temple, he hid here, trying to wait for them to leave and the temple to check the situation, but when I was hiding, I was suddenly hit on the back, and then the little one didn't know anything. My lord, everything the little man said was true, and there was no lie. "

So, were these men in black throwing corpses at the Guandi Temple?

From the inspection just now, he already knew that Guandi Temple was not the first scene of the crime. The butcher's statement was still credible.

For now, it was still a mystery who these people in black were, and what was their purpose for doing this? After killing those children, why did they deliberately throw their bodies in the Guandi Temple?

Lu Ziqing frowned deeper and asked seriously, "Have you ever seen the appearance of these men in black?"

Guan Wu recalled desperately, shook his head and replied: "Those people in black were all covered with face scarves, the little ones didn't see the appearance of those people, please forgive me."

Guan Wu was trembling and crouching on the ground, for fear that this majestic Lord Lu would take his anger on him. But it was too dark at that time, and the men in black were all covered with black scarves, so they couldn't really see their faces.

He felt really unlucky.

Seeing that Lu Ziqing did not ask any useful clues, his face was very ugly. However, this Guan Wu was the only witness at the scene. If you want to solve the case, you can only start from him.

Seeing that Guan Wu was extremely frightened, Zhao Ling exchanged glances with Lu Ziqing and asked her instead. "Guan Wu, think about it again, did you see the person who attacked you from behind?" 

Zhao Ling took two steps forward and asked him in a soft tone as much as possible.

Since he couldn't see the faces of those men in black, she started asking about the person who attacked him from behind.

After Lu Ziqing backed away, Guan Wu instantly felt that the suffocation that enveloped him was gone, and seeing the woman in front of him was as beautiful as a fairy, gentle and calm, with a soft tone, the whole person suddenly relaxed a lot.

The one who attacked him from behind? Guan Wu scratched his head, thought for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said loudly: "Xiao remembered, there was no mask on his face, Xiao Xiao was knocked to the ground by him, and he saw his face."

Hearing this, Lu Ziqing and the others were happy. Zhao Ling struck while the iron was hot, and continued to ask: "Then, what does he look like, can you give a rough idea, or does he have any obvious characteristics?"

What does that man look like? Guan Wu tried his best to think about it for a long time, but seeing that he was scratching his hair into a mess, he still couldn't remember what the person who attacked from behind looked like.

He clearly remembered what he looked like when he saw that person, but when she asked him to tell what he looked like, his mind was blank, and there was no impression at all.

With a sad face, he sneaked a glance at the black-faced Lord Lu's face, which seemed to be getting worse and worse, and really wanted to faint again.

Zhao Ling also frowned slightly. How could this Guan Wu lose the chain of connection at a critical moment?

According to her opinion, Guan Wu may have temporarily lost the memory of that time period. Maybe in a few days, these lost memories would come back slowly. Of course, the worst result was that he would lose that memory forever.

In modern times, this problem could be easily solved through hypnotherapy by a professional psychiatrist.

But the conditions here were too simple, and her hypnotism was not superb, she was not very sure she could obtain the information safely.

But in order to solve the case as soon as possible and seek justice for these poor children who died tragically, she was willing to give it a try.
