Chapter 2199
The sheriff's face was cold.
The atmosphere is oppressive, and the surrounding timid, even the atmosphere dare not breathe.
"The spice merchant who died here before is named Wang Dagui. You people have been in contact with Wang Dagui before."
These words immediately worried many people.
Not everyone is involved in this case, but it's always disturbing to have something to do with the murder.
Lin Mengya didn't say anything here, but someone in the crowd said discontentedly, "who killed people? Just find who you want. Why pull us innocent people?"
The sheriff followed his reputation. The man's face was dissatisfied and his momentum was not like an ordinary merchant, but like a bandit who robbed the road on the way.
Such people are often rude and unreasonable. It's not strange to say such words.
"People die here, all of you are suspected."
The man snorted coldly and looked coldly at Lin Mengya.
"Boss Wang's man said clearly that this woman was the one who killed. Shouldn't the sheriff be merciful and reluctant to arrest people?"
His ridicule did not get much approval.
There is no other reason, just because the sheriff is too fair and rigorous. At least more than half of the people here have heard of his reputation.
It is said that there was a caravan from a big family who sent considerable money to the sheriff just to stay in Xiancheng for another half a month.
Unfortunately, not only did they not get the opportunity to extend, they were also driven out of Xiancheng by the sheriff, and it was stated that their caravan was not allowed to come in except for the normal sacrifice.
This punishment not only made the caravan lose money, but also hit each other's face.
The aristocratic family naturally quit. Unfortunately, the sheriff's attitude was even tougher. In the end, the aristocratic family had to leave in dismay and dared not touch the bad luck again.
Therefore, if the sheriff doesn't arrest someone, it can only mean that she is not the murderer.
After glancing at the wild man, the sheriff continued, "she didn't kill people. First, the size of the blood clothes we found in Bai Jia's shop doesn't match Bai Jing. Second, the blade of the knife has been split and rolled. With her strength as a woman, if she wants to use such great strength, her hand must be stretched and have a wound."
He looked at Lin Mengya, who immediately skillfully raised his white and flexible hands.
"Can you see if there is a wound on her hand?"
Those little hands have long fingers and their nails are built safely. Obviously, there is no wound.
People in the caravan travel all over the year and have never seen anything.
Now, I understand a little.
Lin Mengya saluted the sheriff, "thank you for proving the innocence of the villain."
"But that doesn't mean you have nothing to do with it."
On the sheriff's face, there was only business seriousness.
"After all, all the people related to Wang Dagui are here, and the murderer must be here. These days, you can't leave here for the time being. When we find out, we will let you go."
Lin Mengya and Cairu looked at each other and understood the meaning of the sheriff's hand.
He is fishing.
Wang Dagui's death was a premeditated frame up case.
To get rid of her.
After she entered Xiancheng, the only people she met were all here.
In other words, people who want to be against her also hide here.
Moreover, it is the murderer of Wang Dagui.
So as long as she is here, as long as she is still alive and not swallowed up by the other party's conspiracy, the other party will certainly do it again.
The sheriff is a wise man and a ruthless man.
Although she knows that she may also be killed, it is inevitable that she will be sacrificed in order to maintain the honor of Xiancheng and the majesty of "God".
She looked at the sheriff vaguely again, and her heart was cold.
I'm afraid it's a pity to be a sheriff in order to be desperate for the goal.
Cairu also thought hard for a period of time before she turned around.
Then he lost his favor with the sheriff.
"Master, he is clearly..."
"Isn't it fun?"
She smiled, and there was no trace of worry or anger on her face.
Cairu suddenly didn't know what to say, so she had to complain: "this man is really cruel and cruel. If we don't have the ability to protect ourselves, wouldn't we send him to the door and kill him?"
But she said, "even you think so. I'm afraid the people behind the scenes think so."
Cairu didn't quite understand what she meant, but she felt as if she was ready. Her hanging heart could settle down for the time being.
Even if it is a tiger's den, she will work with everyone to protect the master.
Compared with her calmness, the other group of people are not so easy to talk.
"Sheriff, since Wang Dagui didn't kill her, we certainly didn't kill him. In that case, let us go first."
"Yes, we all came before. I'm afraid we can't stay a few more days recently. You'd better let us sell out the goods first before it's too late."
Everyone's complaints are not without reason.
Originally, the profits here were low, coupled with the limited number of caravans, they were racing against time.
They don't know when they will be kicked out, so they all want to sell the goods as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if you hit it in your hand, you will lose more money on the round-trip freight.
The sheriff cut off the railway: "while you stay here, I can extend your stay in fairy City accordingly. If it is easy to damage goods, you can choose to sell them during the day, but my people must follow. At night, you must stay here until I find out the real murderer."
This requirement is already very humanized.
These merchants also accept what is good. You know, elsewhere, the tyrants of the fiefdoms don't care about their life or death.
As a last resort, I had to accept it.
Seeing that they all agreed, the sheriff said, "from tomorrow on, I will talk to you one by one. Please cooperate with me and don't panic. Otherwise, if you can't find the real murderer one day, you will be trapped here one day."
This really makes everyone feel anxious inexplicably.
Unless the real murderer reveals his flaws, who will be foolish enough to admit it?
Not to mention the last three or five years, even a month or so, many of them will be disrupted this year's livelihood and cause countless troubles.
Therefore, in addition to being afraid of the real murderer, everyone is more angry.
Lin Mengya quietly observed the people around her, but she was surprised at the sheriff's means.
In a few words, he stirred up the anger of most people.
In this way, the real murderer's day will be more difficult.
But at this time, a moat came in a hurry, and then fell in the sheriff's ear and said a few words.
He frowned, waved his hand and ordered people to leave.
Everyone looked at him.
"The man who identified Bai Jing before has died in prison. He was poisoned."
That's a lot of information.
First of all, that guy is the one who falsely accused Lin Mengya.
She was indirectly proved by the sheriff that she was not suspected of killing, so the man was very suspicious.
Either he was the murderer or he was ordered to frame her.
But now that the man is dead and still in prison, it's not the hand of the sheriff.
In this way, the man was killed.
The death of the second man is like a big net, enveloping everyone here.
"I'll go back and deal with it first. Think about it first."
The sheriff hurried away with his men.
Lin Mengya looked at each other's back. A moment later, she showed a strange smile.
"Master, what do you think?"
Cairu looked at her master and asked quietly.
She smiled but didn't speak. She wanted to take her people back to the room first.
But I didn't want to be blocked on the way.
"You broom star! You did it all!"
It's still the wild man talking.
Cairu was also impolite. She twisted the wild man's arm and grinned with pain. She said coldly, "my boss, you can't abuse at will."
Unexpectedly, she is just a girl who looks weak. Her means are so fierce.
The people around immediately retreated. No matter how angry they were, they didn't dare twist the tiger's beard at will.
When Lin Mengya passed by the man, she saw a tattoo with a special pattern on the back of his neck.
She felt that she had seen the pattern, asked Xiaoyao to search it, and then found out the answer.
"Master, this pattern is the sign of an underground force called 'iron horse Gang'. When Zhenlong hall expanded, they had dealt with the iron horse gang. These people are real outlaws. They do everything bad and have no bottom line."
No wonder it's so fierce that even the Sheriff of Xiancheng dares to question it.
She didn't make a sound immediately, but looked coldly at each other's reaction.
The wild man's face turned red. Obviously, he didn't expect that he would be humiliated by a little woman. At that time, he made an effort to turn the defeat around.
However, Cairu's Kung Fu is to overcome hardness with softness.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break away from each other.
Finally, he had to bite his teeth and stand up.
Lin Mengya glanced and said, "all right, let go. We should get along well in the next few days."
When Cairu heard the speech, she let go.
The savage glared at them and rubbed his shoulders and left.
In fact, Cairu is not easy, but now, no one dares to jump out and challenge.
She took the people and went to the shopkeeper. Wen Yan said, "boss, please open a guest house for me, just the two before."
The boss, however, looked embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, boss Bai. The room you lived in before was wrapped up."
