Chapter 19 The Arrival of the Great Order

Get up in the morning and praise the sun

Good health and full of energy

Today, Lin Hongfei had a rare day of rest. He originally wanted to stay in bed for a while, but was awakened by knocks on the door from several police colleagues.

After opening the door, Lin Hongfei learned that they were here to investigate the murder of Liu Wu, the tattooed man, last night.

Because Lin Hongfei was the first police officer to go to the murder scene, they came over specifically to inquire about the situation at that time.

Lin Hongfei naturally pushed himself completely and put forward his own speculation:

"Liu Wu and the tattooed man are both from gangs and have many enemies. It should be a gang vendetta, and the murderer should be a member of a certain gang."

My colleagues in the police station also follow the principle that doing more is worse than doing less. Since there is a justifiable reason, they will quickly close the case and settle the matter.

Moreover, colleagues in the police station also upgraded Lin Hongfei's speculation a second time.

If Lin Hongfei's statement is used as the reason for closing the case, then colleagues in the police station still need to investigate who the murdering gang member is.

Everyone is too lazy to add more work to themselves, so they simply characterize it as:

"Liu Wu and the tattooed man were enemies. They met by chance in an alley, and a quarrel led to a dispute. In the end, they beat each other to death."

Originally, Lin Hongfei felt that the reason he made up for closing the case was already excessive.

Unexpectedly, the reasons concocted by my colleagues were even more outrageous.

If they fight each other to death, there is no need to find or arrest the murderer.

It will actually save yourself some trouble!

I admire you!

Lin Hongfei was so impressed that he fell to the ground!

After settling the case, several colleagues left first.

Lin Hongfei also started to wash up. He had a rare rest today. He planned to go out for a walk and experience the authentic customs and customs of old Yanjing.

When Lin Hongfei finished washing and dressing up, a clear voice sounded:

"Sign in successfully and get 10 Mauser military pistols and 10,000 rounds of bullets!"

"Um?"

Hearing this voice, Lin Hongfei was stunned, and then several military green wooden boxes appeared on the ground in the room.

"I went, why did I sign out the arms?"

Lin Hongfei hurried forward and opened one of the wooden boxes, only to see 10 brand-new Mauser military pistols that exuded a faint smell of engine oil appeared in front of him.

"Mauser military pistol, loaded with 20 rounds of bullets. This gun is also called a shell gun and a speed machine. In "Bright Sword", Li Yunlong relied on this gun to show off his qualifications with Kong Jie." Lin Hongfei immediately recognized this familiar pistol.

Since the army during the Republic of China was basically equipped with bolt-action rifles, which fired once they were pulled, and they did not have the ability to produce submachine guns.

Therefore, these 20-shot shell guns and 10-shot Mauser pistols were purchased in large quantities by various warlords and used as sharp weapons in close firefights.

However, Lin Hongfei doesn't need this thing for the time being, and the shell gun is a bit large, so he can't hide it on his body.

After much deliberation, Lin Hongfei decided to store it at home for the time being and then take it out for use when it was time to use it.

After moving several wooden boxes to the corner, Linn took an old sheet and covered the munitions box, and piled flour bags, pots, pans and other sundries on top to cover them up.

"Go have breakfast first, and drink the whole bowl of soy milk today!"

Lin Hongfei felt comfortable, opened the door and walked out.

As soon as he arrived at the yard, Lin Hongfei found that Liu Wu's family had hung up white cloth and white paper flowers. Liu Wu's wife had a white cloth wrapped around her head and was sitting on a broken mat with a frown on her face.

Liu Wu's body was moved into the yard at some point and placed in a thin-skinned coffin.

The two gangster-looking men burned Liu Wu's paper money, muttered a few words to Liu Wu's wife, and then walked away.

As for Liu Dunzi, he went crazy long ago.

"My father died and he didn't know how to keep his filial piety. He is really a filial son!" Lin Hongfei said with emotion.

The other residents in the courtyard suppressed the smiles on their faces and were busy with the work at hand. With Liu Wu's death, there is one less scourge in the courtyard. I am really happy!

Lin Hongfei deliberately sat in the yard and observed for a while, and sure enough, except for the two gangsters just now, no one came to express condolences.

As for the residents in the courtyard, not to mention offering condolences and helping, they were polite enough if they didn't smash Liu Wu's coffin.

"Hey, why did you provoke me?" Lin Hongfei shook his head speechlessly, and then walked out of the yard.

Not far after leaving the courtyard, Lin Hongfei met his colleagues and saw that they were letting a man who dug out manure drive a manure cart to carry away the body of the tattooed man.

"Hey, brothers, where are you going?" Lin Hongfei asked.

"There are mass graves outside the city. This guy doesn't know where his family is from, so he might as well just leave them there!" said a colleague.

"Good guy, with this kid's size, he can feed those wild dogs for two days!" Lin Hongfei said with a smile.

"No, in the past, the corpses of beggars were thrown away. They were as thin as firewood, dry and full of bones." The colleague responded.

After chatting for a while, Lin Hongfei separated from them and walked straight to the city.

But before he had gone far, a deliberately lowered voice sounded in his ears:

"Brother Hongfei, Brother Hongfei!"

"Um?"

Lin Hongfei frowned, followed the voice, and saw an unkempt man waving his hand at him at the entrance of the alley not far away, with a somewhat anxious look on his face.

"hiss!"

Lin Hongfei frowned and looked at the person in front of him.

The man quickly said: "It's me, Brother Hongfei, I'm Qiu Sheng!"

"Qiu Sheng!"

"why you!"

Lin Hongfei said in surprise!

Wu Qiusheng, Lin Hongfei's cousin, their mothers are biological sisters.

Because the age difference is only two or three years, and the two families live close to each other, Lin Hongfei and Wu Qiusheng grew up together and have a very close relationship.

After the death of the previous dynasty, the Lin family moved into a large courtyard.

The Wu family did not fare much better, and the whole family went to the countryside outside Yanjing.

In the beginning, the two families had some contact, and they would travel around during the holidays.

Later, the village where the Wu family lived was hit by a military disaster, and the entire village was burned down by the rebels. Lin Hongfei also lost contact with Wu Qiusheng.

I thought that all the Wu family members died in the military disaster, but I didn't expect that three or four years later, Lin Hongfei would see his cousin again.

In a moment of excitement, Lin Hongfei stepped forward quickly, grabbed Wu Qiusheng's muddy hand, and said excitedly:

"Qiusheng, why is it you? Where have you been all these years!"

Wu Qiusheng seemed to have become very timid, and his expression was particularly cautious. He was not in a hurry to answer Lin Hongfei's questions, but instead looked around.

At this moment, several figures appeared on the street corner in the distance. Wu Qiusheng suddenly turned pale and said with trembling lips:

"Oops, the commander-in-chief has arrived!"
