Liu Tuiguan was also following.
This followed for four days.
On the fifth day.
On this day, outside an inn on the outskirts of the city.
Wu Sanwen stayed at the inn.
He was very careful along the way and closed the doors and windows when he slept.
I sleep under the bed and roll the quilt into the shape of an ordinary person.
The performance of a frightened bird was very lifelike.
Everybody is acting.
In the middle of the night, suddenly, someone tiptoed towards his room.
Then he used a knife to pry open the bolt and came in carefully.
This is obviously an assassin.
And when the assassin touched the bed.
Suddenly the house lights came on.
Then a group of constables took fishing nets and covered the man's head with them.
Then they rushed forward.
The assassin was captured.
Wire fishing net is the magic weapon used by police officers to deal with experts.
Once it's put on, most of the opponent's tactics will be unsuccessful.
He cannot move around, cannot use weapons, and his hands and feet are not flexible.
Then they took the assassin's veil off directly.
But I found out that he was an ordinary person and no one knew him.
Officer Liu came in.
"As expected, you are the real murderer of Wu Sanwen!"
At this moment, the assassin was not surprised but laughed instead.
He laughed and said, "Haha, so that's how it is. It seems that Wu Sanwen is really dead."
"In that case, I have nothing to worry about."
Then he faced south and shouted directly: "My mission is accomplished!"
Then the assassin bit it with his teeth.
Because his limbs were pressed to the ground by the captives and he could not move.
At this moment, Wen Rensheng kicked him.
The assassin's jaw was dislocated.
"He is a death warrior. He will commit suicide if he fails."
Liu Tuiguan was filled with awe.
The strong man did not deceive himself.
This case is a vendetta between two princes.
The mutual targeting between the eldest prince and the second prince was indeed extraordinary.
For a moment, he wondered if his bet was a bit too careless.
For a prince who can train such a loyal warrior, one can imagine what his methods are.
Until now, the strong man has not said which prince he is working for.
Naturally, the assassin didn't say anything.
Some people always feel that there are too many dead soldiers.
In fact, it is very difficult to train death warriors.
Even the emperor didn't have many loyal warriors.
If it was so easy for the emperor to train his own loyal soldiers, the last emperor Chongzhen would not have had only one eunuch to follow him to his death.
To train a group of death warriors, first of all, it takes a lot of time, and secondly, it takes a lot of money.
Finally, there is a large amount of territory.
My Lord, please be patient.
Training must begin with orphans.
The key to the key is that it requires a lot of investment.
Everything else is secondary.
We were not given enough to eat three times a day, and there was no military pay.
Can you train a group of loyal soldiers just by talking?
Think more.
Biological instinct will resist.
Expecting to train loyal soldiers by just talking is actually training enemies.
The influence of material things is still far greater than that of spirit.
Just to provide food and salaries would cost a huge amount of military funds.
If you want to train 3000 soldiers, the annual cost of silver alone would be at least one million taels.
This is still the most conservative.
The military pay is at least thirty taels a year.
This is one million taels of military pay.
Plus, it needs meat, food, equipment, and various repairs and medicinal materials...
All these messy things cost millions of taels.
In other words, before any benefits were seen, the basic investment of two million taels a year for these 3000 warriors had already been spent.
In the last years of the dynasty, even tens of thousands of taels of silver was a problem, let alone the annual military pay of millions of taels.
The national treasury is often in deficit and in debt.
And today, Liu Tuiguan saw a real assassin.
This naturally shocked him.
He has also seen people who are not afraid of death.
Especially the common people.
But that kind of fearlessness of death is a rejection of a hard life, a forced and unwilling fearlessness of death.
Especially those who commit suicide by drowning or hanging themselves are often desperate about life.
It's not that they are not afraid of death.
But compared to death, living is more unbearable.
They are not warriors, they are escapers.
Of course, they are also kind people who don't want to hurt others and just want to escape themselves.
Liu Tuiguan still appreciated this.
After all, it didn't cause trouble to others.
If everyone were to drag others with them before dying because they were unwilling to accept their fate, the world would be in chaos.
In fact, this is basically how the world is.
There are many suicides, but they are far fewer than in the real world.
Many of the cases were committed by people who were determined to die.
In other words, they are not willing to die easily.
Instead, you have to give it a try and vent your anger.
Now that the other party is able to have someone die so directly, we can see how powerful the force behind him is.
The simple killer, Liu Tuiguan, was not afraid.
Because they are still human beings and are afraid of death.
After all, there are many people in the underworld and the court who keep one or two people who do evil things.
Some are housekeepers, some are security guards.
There is a big difference between assassins and killers.
When it comes to a critical moment, the killer still has to prioritize saving his own life.
The assassins don't think so and prioritize completing their mission.
All in all, the shock this time gave to Tui Guan Liu was still very great.
A life is at stake. Even though they knew this might be a trap, they stepped in without hesitation in order to confirm the target’s death.
Can ordinary people do this?
This assassin directly frightened Liu Tuiguan.
But he had already promised the strong man before.
Things that need to be done must be done.
Afterwards, he ordered his men to tie up the assassin and take him away.
At this moment, the strong man appeared again.
He said, "Leave that man to me. Only I know how to open his mouth."
"Well, then you better be careful." Liu Tuiguan sighed.
He then looked out the window.
It was still dark.
The moon star is thin, and the black dragonfly flies south.
He couldn't help sighing: "Where does the branch I want to perch on grow?"
When Wen Rensheng saw this, he couldn't help but have some special feelings.
I can feel the operation of the whole world and society from these living people.
It is accumulated through individual activities.
It's very much like a game with intelligent AI.
Can this Liu Tuiguan realize his ambition?
Wen Rensheng did some calculations and found that the probability was less than 10%.
In other words, the chance is very low. But if there are ten officials, someone will succeed in this path.
That night, the assassin was beaten into confessing.
This assassin is indeed an assassin, but he did not pass the training subjects and was missing a subject that involves enduring punishment.
He could be allowed to die immediately, but he couldn't resist the punishment.
In the morning, the strong man came to see Liu Tuiguan.
"The assassin has confessed that he is from the capital and is a servant of a wealthy family. He came to kill Wu Sanwen because Wu Sanwen was not given food when he begged for food and was beaten up."
"Before leaving, Wu Sanwen announced to that family that he would come back to take revenge in three years."
"They have a grudge against each other, and the wealthy family is worried that Wu Sanwen will be in trouble in the future."
"So they sent assassins to kill him." The strong man sighed.
"Is this true? Not made up?"
"It's not made up, because Wu Sanwen mentioned this to me. He also said that before leaving, he wanted to go to the wealthy family who had beaten him up that year to vent his anger, so as to avoid encountering any accidents on the road and feeling regretful in his heart." The sturdy man nodded.
Tuiguan Liu frowned.
This makes sense.
When you are about to become rich, or are already on the road to becoming rich, you naturally want to show off in front of your enemies.
Human nature.
Wen Rensheng thought this was normal.
For example, the most typical case is when a company is going to have a promotion and has made a public announcement, and then starts to show off.
As a result, people were jealous and secretly found something to hold against him, so he failed to get promoted.
Wu Sanwen is an ancient example.
"If that's the case, it's really an accident. But it's not right either. The assassin is so fearless and ready to die. He's not something that an ordinary wealthy family can cultivate." Liu Tuiguan was still a little unwilling to give up.
If that was the case, then there would be no benefit for him to solve the case except to offend a big shot in the capital.
There is no one to rely on.
"But this is what happened after the torture." The strong man was helpless.
If he couldn't pin the matter on another prince, he would have no way of making up for his mistake.
After all, Wu Sanwen was chosen with great difficulty to fill the vacancies and develop strength in secret.
To be used at critical moments.
Everyone agrees that only border troops can fight.
Therefore, a large-scale team must be developed among the border troops and then pulled back to the capital.
It would be wishful thinking to expect to secretly train 300 people in the capital.
If the censor hears about the incident one day, even if he is a prince, he will be imprisoned.
As soon as he died, he became the focus.
The other party will be alert and then plug the loophole.
"Let me think, is it possible that the assassin himself knew nothing, and what he said was told to him in advance by others?" After all, Tui Guan Liu was well versed in criminal law, and he thought of something.
The assassin may not have lied, but if what he knew was false, the people who tortured him would naturally get false information.
This one is very common in military strategy.
Release false information and let your own people be captured, while what your own people know is false in the first place.
The advantage of doing this is that the risk is low and the degree of deception is high.
At least the strong man really believed it.
After all, this was information he had personally tortured out of him.
People always cherish the fruits of their hard work.
Then the strong man suddenly realized: "It is very likely."
"Since you are a death warrior, you naturally don't need to know the real news."
"I know what to do."
The strong man went back.
Officer Liu didn’t know what the other party was going to do, but he knew that the other party should have a solution.
Indeed, the information provided by the suicide squad was false.
But it is impossible to fake where the assassins came from and the places they passed through.
So the strong man followed the clues and found the last residence of the assassin, a large courtyard in the capital.
There was a flag outside the yard: Longsheng Escort Agency.
A security company keeping assassins?
ridiculous.
The strong man then continued to investigate, and this time it was his turn to almost die.
He did not continue the investigation, but applied to transfer Officer Liu.
Because in his opinion, Liu Tui Guan was very powerful.
It was so easy to lure out an assassin.
But it wasn't his turn.
He wanted to use the ability of Liu Tui Guan to eliminate the enemy.
It mainly relies on official power to drag the enemy into the water little by little.
So Liu Tuiguan was appointed as the magistrate of the capital and promoted to the fifth rank.
And Liu Tuiguan also began to know who he was serving.
It turned out to be the second prince.
His opponent is the eldest prince.
In this way, he can be said to have a backer.
In ancient officialdom, if one wanted to rise in the officialdom, one had to either spend time or find someone to back you up.
Or it depends on luck.
Afterwards, Tui Guan Liu asked for a few more constables to serve as his entourage.
Being transferred from a local constable to a constable in the capital is certainly not an ordinary thing.
But this world is different.
Because there are too many cases, convenient channels have been opened up for internal transfers of those in charge of the cases.
This is all forced by the situation.
Just like the Ming Dynasty did not have governors and governors-general in the beginning, but later, as wars broke out, governors and governors-general had to be set up, and then their power grew larger and larger, gradually and completely overrode the local system.
Didn’t the emperor know that this would lead to local separatism?
I know, but there is nothing I can do. For the sake of greater harm, these evils must be tolerated.
Therefore, these crime-solving personnel can be easily transferred and deployed at will.
Afterwards, Wen Rensheng followed Liu Tuiguan to the capital.
He just goes with the flow, muddles through life, and watches what happens in the world.
It’s been a while since I’ve gone deep into the lowest world, and it really feels unique and fresh.
There were noisy voices, the sound of horse hooves, wheels, hawking, crying...
It is interwoven into a picture that can be regarded as a prosperous era in the feudal era.
In the feudal era, if there was no famine, it was a prosperous era.
this day.
Wen Rensheng was drinking tea, listening to music and watching acrobatics in a teahouse.
By the way, I threw some copper coins to the singers and street performers.
"Thank you, sir. I wish you a successful career." The girl who sang the song bowed to Wenren Sheng and made a thousand bows.
The people in Beijing are all very smart and can basically tell the other person's occupation at a glance.
"No problem." Wen Rensheng smiled.
At this moment, suddenly, a retired old gentleman who was listening to the music fell to the ground.
If you fall down, you fall down.
It's normal for an old person to die these days.
The problem is that he shouted to the people in the teahouse: "This, this water is poisonous!"
Then he started foaming at the mouth, and his head tilted aside and he died.
Wen Rensheng truly experienced the reality of this world.
He had only been out for a short time when he ran into a dead person.
But others are not surprised.
Only the shop owner sighed and said, "These days, if you want to open a shop, you have to hire two constables to invest in it."
Then he said to the waiter, "Hurry up and ask Captain Wang and Captain Zhang to come over."
The shop owner seemed very familiar and I wasn't very scared.
Just worry about your own money.
From this point of view, the frequent occurrence of crimes in this world is actually a protective color for the common people.
If it were a normal feudal era, if the teahouse owner did not have a strong background, this death alone would have wiped out more than half of his property.
This is based on the premise that there are people willing to accept and help.
The waiter then went to report to the police, and a group of detectives came rushing over.
Then they identified the deceased, secured evidence at the scene, searched for family members, and looked for witnesses. All of them were left behind.
It looks very professional.
In short, practice makes perfect.
These detectives appear professional thanks to the fact that they are not solving cases on the battlefield.
There is no such thing as elimination rate.
With enough experience, a novice can become an experienced one.
Unless they are a few idiots and lazy people.
Wen Rensheng was naturally kept.
However, since he showed his badge, he was no longer treated as a suspect, but as an eyewitness.
