Chapter 56
He yelled loudly several times, and the door slammed loudly, but there was no movement inside. Wang Tong frowned and looked at the door, feeling more and more wrong, and turned back to Sun Dahai and others and said:

"Two people turn in and open the door!"

These people were eager to have a chance to perform in front of Wang Tong. After hearing this order, they selected two nimble ones, each supported by two people, and directly lifted them over the wall.

Not long after, the door latch twitched, and the door opened from the inside. Wang Tong led the people to rush in. The door of the room was also closed tightly. A small hole came out, and I leaned over to have a look, my whole body shook violently, then turned around and shouted to Ma Sanbiao:

"Sanbiao, open the door!"

Ma Sanbiao's strength was unambiguous, with a few chops, the door was smashed open.

As soon as the door opened, all the Jinyi guards around the door took a step back. A woman was hanging from the beam, her tongue was sticking out, her lifeless eyes were staring at the door, and there was an overturned stool underneath. , apparently by hanging himself.

Just now what Wang Tong saw in the window opening was a pair of feet hanging in the air, and a hanged person suddenly appeared in front of everyone, the shock was really not small.

Wang Tong reacted quickly and exclaimed:
"Sister-in-law, you guys go and put the person down quickly, and the others follow me in to have a look!"

This is shopkeeper Zhao's wife. Wang Tong has met her many times before, but he never expected that during the Spring Festival, Yin and Yang would be separated. One of the largest commercial firms, the house where shopkeeper Zhao lives is also quite decent, with a complete main hall and wing rooms.

A group of people rushed in, and just about to separate to search, a Jin Yiwei who was running in the front suddenly screamed and jumped to the side suddenly.

Everyone who was already nervous was taken aback by his action, and Sun Dahai felt even more ashamed. Just as he was about to scold him, he heard Jin Yiwei shout:
"There's a kid sitting here."

They shouted from this side, and the Jin Yiwei who helped him down from the other side also shouted in one go:
"My lord, this auntie's body is stiff, she's dead!"

Although Wang Tong had a brave and ruthless side in his temperament, he felt a little apprehensive in the face of such a violent death corpse. When he heard the shout, he remembered Zhao Jinliang, the only son of shopkeeper Zhao. The child who was born at the age of 40 is only seven years old this year. He is very lively and cute, so don't let anything happen to him.

He walked quickly to the door of the side room, and couldn't help being startled. Zhao Jinliang was sitting in the door of the side room wearing a padded jacket, his face was covered with congealed blood.

A little boy carved in powder and jade was sitting there with blood all over his face. He was not angry at all, and he couldn't even tell if he was dead or alive. Anyone who saw it suddenly would be shocked.

"Xiao Liang!! Xiao Liang!! What's wrong with you!"

Wang Tong yelled twice, and Zhao Jinliang, who was sitting there, slowly raised his head, saw Wang Tong's concerned face, and said dumbly:
"So it's Uncle Wang..."

There was no expression on his face, and his movements were as stiff as a puppet. This movement proved that Zhao Jinliang was still alive, but this movement was not angry at all, which was even more worrying.

"Xiao Liang, what happened to your house!!"

Zhao Jinliang slowly raised his finger and pointed at Wang Tong's back, and said dumbly:
"Uncle Wang, where is my father!"

The child's movements made Wang Tong feel the chill on his back. At this time, the Jin Yiwei behind him also shouted. Wang Tong turned his head and saw a person hanging there at the door of the opposite bedroom. It was Shopkeeper Zhao.

Ma Sanbiao also knew shopkeeper Zhao, and was a little at a loss to see such a miserable scene during the festival. Sun Dahai led several people to put shopkeeper Zhao down again.

"My lord, this man is already paralyzed. He hung up for almost half the night and couldn't be saved."

Sun Dahai went to Wang Tong's side and said in a low voice. Wang Tong's hands were shaking all the time. Hearing Sun Dahai's words, he quickly took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"Secure the door first, and go find the arresters and yamen servants from Shuntian Mansion."

Although Jin Yiwei can maintain law and order and assist in the investigation, if there is no order, he is not qualified to convict and deal with civilian crimes, and the local government must do it.

Some idlers who came out to shop were poking their heads at the entrance of the house to watch the excitement. Sun Dahai nodded and was about to make arrangements, but saw Zhao Jinliang who was still sitting there, and asked in a low voice:

"My lord, will this child be handed over to the servants of Shuntian Mansion?"

Wang Tong hesitated for a while, but still shook his head, stepped forward and hugged Zhao Jinliang, sighed and said:
"I'll take the child back first, ask questions and check things, and let the police officers find me!"

If these children have no relatives to take them back, they will probably be sold after staying in the government for a few days. On the contrary, they will spoil the children, so it is better to take them back and take care of them.

Jin Yiwei loudly drove away the idlers in front. Wang Tong carried Zhao Jinliang, who was stiff and cold, and walked out. The body of the shopkeeper's wife was placed by the door. Zhao Jinliang looked at it and said lightly:
"Oh, so my mother died too."

Then there was no sound, Wang Tong's heart twitched at such unpopular words, and he hugged him tighter. When he walked outside, Wang Tong said to Sun Dahai and the others:
"It's delayed the brothers' New Year's Eve, wait for something, I'll treat everyone to a drink!!"

Everyone laughed, and Sun Dahai patted his chest and said:

"What do you say, my lord? It's just a matter of duty. According to the rules, our brothers still invite you to drink after the first lunar month!"

There were people left here to deal with it, Wang Tong and Ma Sanbiao walked towards the house with a sullen face, there were already many people on the road, but seeing the blood-stained child in Wang Tong's arms, they all quickly moved away.

"Let Aunt Ma boil some water and wipe off the blood on this kid's body. I still have a few sets of old clothes from when I was a child. Bring them and change them for him."

At the gate, Wang Tong handed the child over to Ma Sanbiao, and went back to his room to change his clothes. Now that he has a different status, some guests would come to visit him, so blood-stained clothes are not suitable.

The festivities brought by the Spring Festival had vanished. Wang Tong changed his clothes and felt heavy and uncomfortable all the time. What kind of thing could make the well-to-do shopkeeper Zhao and his wife leave their youngest son and hang themselves on New Year's Eve.

What a coincidence, after changing clothes, Zou Yi led two people to visit. Everything on the South Street was as usual, but the back side of Wang Tong's residence was busy. People who moved, demolished, and planned construction did not rest during the New Year. After all, it was a task assigned by the palace.

Wang Tong's intention at the beginning was to keep the chicken that lays golden eggs in South Street, and then attract a large number of people through this martial arts hall, so that it will be the icing on the cake when the time comes.
