Chapter 924 The death of the steward

"Put your talisman bag and the knife on your body on the ground." One of the three constables said coldly to Zhou Fan.

The three constables knew that Zhou Fan was wearing it and that this was a warrior. Facing the warrior, they were at the murder scene, even in Gaoxiang City, they had to be careful.

That's why they asked Zhou Fan to remove the weapons and talisman bags on his body.

This is both a rule in Gaoxiang City and a temptation.

If Zhou Fan is unwilling to remove the weapons and talisman bags, there may be problems.

This situation is inevitable to fight, and there are no shortage of warriors among the constables. Even if the constables in Gaoxiang County cannot kill the rebellious warriors, Yiluansi will soon send strong men to arrive.

Zhou Fan did not disarm his weapons. He just spread his hands and said without any malice: "I am still Zhou Fan, the newly appointed Fushi envoy of Yiluansi Mansion."

When the three constables heard this, they looked back at the constables who did not come to watch behind them.

It’s just a pity that no one in the constable recognized Zhou Fan.

But Zhou Fan said this, and they did not dare to act arbitrarily. The three constables muttered a few words before one of them bowed: "It turns out to be Lord Zhou. Please ask Lord Zhou to show the token. This is the rule set by the county government."

Zhou Fan was waiting for this. He did not get the token at the beginning because any action would cause unnecessary misunderstandings without permission.

Even if there are too many such constables, he will not be afraid, but he cannot have any conflicts with his own people and make any jokes.

Zhou Fan got permission, so he reached into the talisman bag to find the Fushi envoy token that he had just obtained from Yiluansi.

When Zhou Fan was looking for the token, the three constables kept watching Zhou Fan's actions with caution.

Zhou Fan took out the token, and the constables vaguely saw the Qingluan emblem pattern representing Yiluansi on the token, and their tense hearts relaxed a lot.

"Mr. Zhou, can you throw the token over and let us check it?" the constable asked respectfully again.

Zhou Fan nodded and threw the token to the detective.

The detective reached out to catch the token.

Only then did Zhou Fan see the detective wearing thin green gloves in both hands, and the gloves are engraved with runes.

Zhou Fan's eyes showed a look of praise. This was obviously taken by the constable just now.

After all, Zhou Fan might be their Shangguan. If Shangguan threw the token on the ground, it would seem a bit disrespectful, but if he asked him to take it with his bare hands, he was afraid that there would be any problems, so he put on gloves.

While Zhou Fan was thinking, the three detectives had checked the token and confirmed that the token was indeed the token of Yiluansi, the three of them hurriedly bowed to Zhou Fan.

Even though they were not sure where the Fushi Envoy was, even the Yiluansi was a higher level than theirs, let alone the Fushi Envoy.

The other constables also came to salute.

Zhou Fan took back the token and waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be so polite. Before the incident, I did have contact with this person, and I will only take office tomorrow. It is not convenient for me to interfere in this case. You can do whatever you should do."

Zhou Fan could only tell the truth, because someone should have seen him talking to the dead caravan manager before the incident. If he concealed it, he would not have attracted suspicion.

If Zhou Fan had just left, he suspected that he would be wanted soon.

The constables responded in unison.

Since the matter involves an adult from Yiluansi, the constables dare not make any decisions, so they can only send someone to notify Yiluansi.

Then, Zhou Fan was left to stand aside, and they began to question the pedestrians who were forced to stay at the time of the incident.

The coroner came soon.

Zhou Fan looked at the coroner's body and wanted to ask, but obviously he was not suitable to speak.

Before the coroner had finished examining the body, the people from Yiluansi came.

Three people came, two of whom were Lishi and Yuan Liwei, the chief general staff member of Yiluansi.

The two strong men were headed by Yuan Liwei. Yuan Liwei glanced at Zhou Fan, and he turned to the two strong men and said, "You go and find out the situation first."

The two strongmen nodded slightly and went to the detective to find out the situation.

Yuan Liwei then walked towards Zhou Fan, and he lowered his voice and said, "Master Zhou, why are you here? The constable also said that you are related to this case?"

As Yuan Liwei spoke, he also glanced at the headless corpse on the ground that was examined by the coroner.

Zhou Fan smiled bitterly and said, "It happened that I was unlucky to encounter this."

Zhou Fan briefly explained the reason for the matter.

After hearing this, Yuan Liwei nodded slightly and said, "So that's the case, it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Why is General Yuan coming?" Zhou Fan asked.

Yuan Liwei coughed lightly and said, "When the constable reported, you were there, and the people under the matter dared not make any decisions and reported them layer by layer. After Lord Huang found out, he asked me to bring two strong men here."

If it weren't for the faction that the newly appointed Fushi, at most two strong men would come to such a case.

It may even be that the county government has not involved the investigation, and will not inform Yiluansi of the situation.

Zhou Fan thought for a while and whispered: "Staff Officer Yuan, I am involved in the case after all, and I know this person again. According to the rules, is it suitable for me to understand the case?"

Yuan Liwei frowned slightly. He understood Zhou Fan's meaning. Zhou Fan wanted to intervene in the investigation of the case.

Yuan Liwei hesitated and said, "This is a bit unruly, but the rules are determined by others. I will first understand the situation. Maybe Lord Zhou can understand the case, but if it is not appropriate, please forgive me."

"Of course, if I am not suitable, I will never let Staff Yuan make things difficult for him." Zhou Fan said with a smile.

Yuan Liwei turned around and walked to gather with Constable Lissi to discuss the case.

Zhou Fan saw that the coroner had completed the autopsy and stood up to report to Yuan Liwei and the others.

In order to avoid suspicion, Zhou Fan stood in the distance and couldn't hear what they said. His face was calm, but his heart was quite uneasy.

He was wondering if this was really a coincidence?

I happened to meet someone I had only met a few times, but died in a strange state without saying a few words.

If it wasn't for a coincidence... Zhou Fan's heart was slightly deeper, then this was a situation against him.

Who could it be?

Someone who might be suspected of harming him appeared in Zhou Fan's mind.

The A-Class Class has already ended, and everything has been decided. No one will want to kill him because of the A-Class Class quota, which will greatly reduce the number of people who want to harm him.

Unless some forces are frustrated and become angry, they will do this...

Zhou Fan frowned when he thought of this.

Because he thought it might be just a coincidence.

In addition to Cao Yanfang, Tan Yunfei, Guan Yingfeng, and the people from this caravan, who knows that he knows the manager of this caravan?

No matter how powerful the news is, it is impossible for anyone to understand this.

The possibility that Cao Yanfang and the other two had a caravan would want to harm him was almost zero.

Soon another strongman came over and asked about the details of the matter.
