Chapter 35: Inspector's Clues
Chapter 35: Inspector's Clues
The two of them walked forward and arrived at the Zongmen Horse Farm at the foot of the mountain.
After showing their identity cards, they each paid two contribution points, rented two red-blooded horses, and headed all the way towards Chuanjiang City.
The red-blooded colt is a tall and divine steed. It is a strange beast and can travel thousands of miles in a day.
Chuanjiang City is only four hundred miles away from Daluo Sect's headquarters.
Running all the way.
That afternoon, the two came to the mining area not far outside Chuanjiang City.
After showing your ID card, someone will come in and notify you immediately.
After a while, the person in charge of the mine came out in person.
Haha! Congratulations to you two gentlemen!
This is a middle-aged man with a rich face and a slightly pudgy figure. He walked forward quickly and smiled ingratiatingly.
My lords, the road inside is not easy, why not leave the horse here?
Jiang Heng and the two men jumped off their horses.
The middle-aged man immediately called the two men and solemnly ordered the horses to be taken away. Only then did he put a smile on his face.
While leading the two of them inside, he said:
Two gentlemen, I am the owner of the mine. My name is Gu Chengping. What do you call me?
My name is Jiang Heng.
My name is Mi Wenjie.
Master Jiang and Master Mi, they must be tired from traveling and traveling. I have ordered people to prepare wine and food for you two to catch the wind and wash away the dust.
Jiang Heng raised his hand to stop him.
No need, just tell us about the incident.
Qi Xue Dan is the best food, so Jiang Heng has not eaten ordinary food for a long time because there are too many impurities.
Gu Chengping looked at the two of them and his eyes fell on Mi Wenjie.
As the person in charge of the property under the name of Daluo Sect, he can naturally tell their identities from their uniforms.
Jiang Heng, who is wearing a blue martial arts uniform, is an outer disciple.
Mi Wenjie, who is wearing a blue martial arts uniform, is an inner disciple.
Generally speaking, if two people are present at the same time, the opinion of the inner disciple will definitely be the main one.
So, the leader of the two people on this trip should be Mi Wenjie.
This mission is led by Senior Brother Jiang, just listen to him.
Mi Wenjie said with a forced smile.
Gu Chengping was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said immediately:
Okay! Mr. Jiang, lets go to the study room first.
The group of people changed directions and soon arrived at Gu Chengping's study.
The three of them sat down.
Gu Chengping took out a dossier and handed it to the two of them. At the same time, he also introduced the relevant information of the incident to them.
"The hematite extracted from our mine is of high value. We ship goods to the weapons hall fifty miles away every week, with a total value of about two hundred thousand taels."
So, I suspect that some organization has set its sights on us. After figuring out our route, they set up an ambush and robbed all the goods.
Jiang Heng and his two colleagues also read some relevant information about the mission in the sect, but after all, it was an urgent report and it was not that detailed.
The information in hand now clearly describes the time, place and passage of the incident.
The robbery and murder occurred three days ago. The three sect disciples stationed here escorted the convoy as always. However, they were suddenly robbed and killed on a mountain road. No one survived, and the goods disappeared without a trace.
In surrounding cities, have there been any large-scale transactions of hematite recently?
Although the other party was unlikely to sell the stolen goods so quickly, Jiang Heng still asked subconsciously.
Sure enough, Gu Chengping shook his head.
"No, the other party was obviously well prepared. After the robbery, he immediately hid the stolen goods and all the people disappeared."
"Next to the mountain road where he was robbed and killed, there is a large mountain. I suspected that the other party might be temporarily hiding in the mountain, so I sent dozens of people to search in the mountain. However, the mountain area is too large and the terrain is complex. So far, no effective clues have been found. clue."
Jiang Heng pondered for a moment and then asked:
How many carriages are there in the transport convoy?
Gu Chengping was startled, and then replied: "Ten cars."
How much does it weigh approximately? Will it leave clear indentations on the ground?
A cart weighs about eight thousand kilograms, but that mountain road is an important trade route, and traders often come and go. Even if there are indentations, they will be covered up by other traces.
Jiang Heng thought for a moment.
In the current intelligence, there are no useful clues at all, and there is no direction for thinking at all.
Jiang Heng has never investigated a case, and he cant even get a clue.
He simply gave up thinking, looked at Mi Wenjie, and asked calmly:
Junior brother Mi, what do you think about this matter?
Mi Wenjie glanced at Jiang Heng and then at Gu Chengping.
Go and call the inspector over.
Gu Chengping immediately nodded, turned and left.
Jiang Heng asked curiously:
What is an inspector?
The sect has many industries under its name, and the interests involved are too huge. Even with the strength of the sect, it is inevitable that some people will take risks.
Therefore, in every large estate there are stationed guards and overseers.
The two positions have different divisions of labor.
The garrison is responsible for force protection, and the supervisor is only responsible for operating records, operating supervision, and reporting to the sect regularly.
Although the supervisors are only responsible for collecting various operational intelligence within the mine, they may be able to find some clues from it.
After a while, Gu Chengping came with a middle-aged man wearing a blue uniform of Da Luo Zong.
Two senior brothers!
The middle-aged man, as an outer disciple, shouted very politely when he entered.
The two of them nodded and signaled Gu Chengping to step back.
After the three briefly introduced themselves to each other, they got down to business.
Junior brother Fang, have there been any unusual events in the mine recently?
Middle-aged man Fang Xiong said in a deep voice: "Yes!"
Three days ago in the evening, a small building in the mine was burned down. Five miners happened to be in the building at the time and died unexpectedly.
Jiang Heng and the two couldn't help but look at each other.
Just now I thought there was no clue to the case, but in the blink of an eye, clues appeared.
Three days ago, it was the day of the robbery and murder.
If you say there is no connection between the two, no one will believe it.
Jiang Heng asked:
Do similar accidents usually happen?
Fang Xiong shook his head.
Very few. Safety is taken very seriously in the mine, and there are no more than two fatal accidents in a year.
Besides, even if an accident occurs, it is usually an accident inside the mine, and there are basically no accidents outside.
Where is the body of the deceased?
Has been cremated and buried.
"The deaths of several people were probably related to the robbery and murder. Why were they cremated so quickly?"
Jiang Heng frowned.
Fang Xiong quickly explained:
Senior Brother Jiang, the duties of the supervisor are clearly defined. They are only responsible for recording some developments within the industry. We are not allowed to interfere in any of their actions unless it clearly harms the interests of the sect.
So, we just recorded it and didnt interfere.
The two of them then asked for some more information, but apart from this accident, there was nothing unusual.
