Chapter 74 Fire at the county magistrate's house
"Set the fire? Where?" Yese asked the common questions he and Du Kuan had in mind.
"Lu Leqiang's family." Zhang Fei snapped his fingers.
"The county magistrate's house? It's so burning." Ye Se looked at the madman in admiration.
Only the county magistrate's family can call the police immediately.
Only police officers can stop soldiers holding guns on the spot.
"You're crazy." Du Kuan was dumbfounded.
That night, the home of County Mayor Lu Leqiang caught fire.
The fire in his house is inexplicably inexplicable.
After dinner, the wife of the third wife of the Lu family accompanied the master to play mahjong.
The third wife finally got a good handful of cards, changed her decadent look and shouted excitedly: "The squad is blooming."
The word "Blooming" and "Blooming" sounded in the yard at the same time, which was more spectacular than "Blooming": "It's on fire, and the left backyard is on fire."
The left backyard is where the three wives live.
This scream made the wife of the third wife so shocked that she threw Lu Leqiang down, one of them ran faster than the other, and all rushed to the left backyard.
The place where the fire lies in the granary near the corner of the left backyard, with thick smoke emitting.
The three wives rushed to the granary to watch the fun.
If the food is burned, the master will fill it up immediately. As long as their house is not on fire, everything will be fine.
The fire in the granary was extinguished after half an hour. The wife of the third wife watched the fun and twisted her waist and beat her tired thighs to go back to the room to sleep.
Shortly after entering the house, three shrill screams came from the backyard.
The three wives rushed out of the door of the house with their decorative boxes in their arms, stood opposite the yard, beat their chests and stamped their feet, and cried bitterly.
The second child said: "My necklace, ring, and bracelet are gone."
The third brother said: "Who stole my jewelry and dowry? I'll curse you that you won't die well, and you'll have a son."
The boss said: "The ancestral phoenix crown passed down to me by the old lady was lost, and my jewelry was gone, as well as the land deeds and silver notes, all of them were gone."
"Hurry, call the master quickly." The three of them shouted together.
The commander of the servants to destroy the fire in the granary. Lu Leqiang returned to the study room in the front yard, holding the girl in the room and was shocked. For the second time, he was frightened by the screams of the three women.
"Md, what happened again?" He was extremely unhappy, excited that he was forced to stop his head, feeling unspeakable and frustrated.
He put on a robe and walked towards the backyard, and happened to meet the servant who came to invite him.
When the three wives saw Lu Leqiang, they surrounded him and pulled his arm and cried: "Master, we have lost all our fineness and weakness, and we have been recruiting thieves at home."
Lu Leqiang's mind is the county magistrate, smart and alert.
First, the fire broke out, then the things were thrown away, and the one who stole the house of the magistrate of the county was stolen.
Rebellion, I'm afraid of life.
"Butler, go and call Director Zhang of the police station." Lu Leqiang had a gloomy face and shook away the three women's hands that were tightly wrapped around their arms like snakes.
He went into the second wife's room and took a look, walked out and scolded him upset: "Stop crying, go back and see what you lost, write a list for me."
Walking into the front hall, Lu Leqiang sat on the Grand Master's chair and meditated.
I don’t know how long it took, but the housekeeper’s voice sounded in his ears: “Master, Director Zhang is here.”
"Call him in."
Zhang Shifan was dressed in casual clothes, without any restraint of laughter and a solemn expression.
Behind him was Inspector Liu Dacheng and Liu and more than a dozen police officers with guns.
On the way, Zhang Shifan was ready to be scolded when he heard the fire at the county magistrate's house.
"Director Zhang? Luoyi's public security has reached this point? How do you, the director?" Lu Leqiang did not give Zhang Shifan the chance to speak at all, slapped the table wildly and blamed him.
Zhang Shifan turned his face to the side, avoided the squirting star flying from the opposite side, and comforted him: "Prince magistrate is at ease, don't be impatient. I will take someone to investigate the scene first, and then report to the county magistrate."
Without waiting for Lu Leqiang to squeak, Zhang Shifan waved his hand and took his men to the backyard.
Let's avoid the limelight first.
When Zhang Shifan returned to the front hall, Lu Leqiang had calmed down.
He stood in front of the window with a teacup.
Hearing the footsteps, Lu Leqiang did not look back and asked directly: "How is it? Are there any clues?"
"County Magistrate Lu, my subordinates carefully checked it, I..." Zhang Shifan's opening article was still a big trick of showing his achievements.
Lu Leqiang knew this person too well and no longer gave him a chance to talk: "Tell me the result."
"It was done by the bandits, Liang Yike." Zhang Shifan finally said a happy word.
"reason?"
"There was a dog outside the granary and his head was cut off with one knife. The eldest lady urinated in her room. Whenever she slashed the beam, she would leave these two characteristics behind when she committed a crime in a place."
"Pee! He is a dog, and this place is his?" Lu Leqiang smashed the teacup in his hand.
Pointing to Zhang Shifan: "It's already a curfew and he can't leave the city. You search me from house to house and dig three feet into the ground to find this beam for me to cut it."
Zhang Shifan replied: ‘'We just saw a black shadow, which is very suspicious. It is probably because his subordinates came back to inquire about the situation. Inspector Liu has already brought people to chase him."
However, his tone changed and he complained: "County Magistrate Lu, you don't know that these bandits are no different from farmers. If you throw away the swords and guns in your hands, you will be the common people. Most of them are all local households. Our people can't tell where to search? How to search?"
"What do you think? My grandfather's house in the county was stolen. Not to mention that it was embarrassing. The provisional government is now in the city. They use this to question the security in the city. It is hard to protect you and I. Anyway, I will not be unlucky at that time. You can do it."
Lu Leqiang was so angry that he was extremely dissatisfied with Zhang Shifan's usual approach of pushing 625, but he was helpless.
Zhang Shifan glanced at Lu Leqiang with his eyes squinted, and his mouth twitched, and he laughed at himself.
Then, he pretended to be serious: "County magistrate, you can actually ask Commander Ma to come and discuss this matter."
The commander Ma in his mouth was the in-laws of Ma Hongru, the commander of Luoyi City, and Lu Leqiang.
Lu Leqiang slapped his forehead: "Yes, why did I forget him?"
"But, go and ask Commander Ma."
The butler matted the bar and ran out again.
With a bag of cigarettes, Commander Ma stepped into the door.
The two live in the same street, less than a mile apart. Ma Hongru's daughter married Lu Leqiang's eldest son, and is now the eldest grandmother of County Mayor Lu's family.
"What's going on so late?" Ma Hongru's voice was loud and her face turned red like a pig's liver. It was obvious that she had just finished drinking.
"Sir Ma, my family has been recruiting thieves."
Lu Leqiang's words made Ma Hongru immediately nervous about his daughter: "Are Ni'er okay?"
Lu Leqiang quickly explained: "She is fine. My three wives' fine decorations were lost. Director Zhang said it was Liang Yishe who cut it."
Zhang Shifan nodded at Ma Hongru: "Yes, the evidence on the scene showed that he did it."
Lu Leqiang pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down first."
He knew Zhang Shifan's intentions, and he was determined to imitate himself, marry his daughter into Ma Hongru's family, become the second daughter-in-law of the Ma family, and form a relative of children, and since then he has gained a foothold in Luoyi.
He is happy to facilitate this.
When the three families meet their brides, they can cover up the sky and talk about the matter on Luoyi territory.
Ma Hongru sat down and burped: "This group of bandits have been stalking for several years. Now they are robbed in the city. They are lawless. Why don't they deal with them?"
With six eyes facing each other, Lu Leqiang thought the most thoroughly: "In what name?"
Anyway, it is not possible to say it out loud in the name of the stolen fire in his house. County Magistrate Lu will be disgraced.
Ma Hongru slapped the table and said, "nnd, I happen to have an excuse for a famous teacher to be famous. It's not too late or too late, I just received it."
