Chapter 58 Suspect
The bedroom where Qin Feng is located is the first room on the second floor of the inn. The door of the bedroom is on the right hand side as you go upstairs.
"Oh!"
With a dull thud, the bedroom door shattered.
A figure with his back to the crowd flew in backwards, knocking over the table in the bedroom, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground.
He spat out a large mouthful of blood, then his head tilted and he lay on the ground lifeless.
He was wearing the clothes of a yamen runner, which meant that he was an official!
The next second, a burly man in black holding a big knife rushed in from the bedroom door.
He had a full beard and was dressed like a gangster. After entering the room, he first stabbed the officer and then glanced around.
After seeing Gao Hai and Jiao Liu, he was stunned.
Then he smiled and bowed, "Brother Gao, Brother Jiao, it's such a coincidence to see you here."
"Brother Wang?"
Gao Hai was also stunned and asked, "What are you doing?"
The sturdy man in front of him was named Wang Dahe. When the Gao family went on a business trip two years ago, they hired him as a bodyguard. He was a warrior with fourth-grade strength.
It has been two and a half years since we last saw each other. How could I have imagined that we would meet now?
"I committed a crime and am wanted. I was drinking downstairs just now and a few officers recognized me and came to arrest me!"
"How could I be caught? I killed them immediately. This one was so scared that he ran upstairs, but I caught up with him."
Coincidentally, those officers were the ones who came in from the north gate.
They came here for Qin Feng, but they didn't expect to run into the killer Wang Dahe as soon as they reached the first floor.
Generally speaking, wanted criminals don't dare to come to the city.
But Wang Dahe was a man who loved to satisfy his appetite, and he especially loved the food in this inn.
Even if it involves a certain amount of risk, he will come over for a meal after a while.
Of course, Wang Dahe is not stupid. He is a cautious person and the type who is bold but careful.
Therefore, when entering the city or eating, they would disguise themselves slightly so that ordinary people would not notice unless they looked closely.
To be honest, it was these officials who were unlucky.
They didn't notice Wang Dahe's disguise at all, nor did they know that he was a wanted criminal.
But Wang Dahe himself was too nervous!
Seeing the police approaching, he subconsciously thought that these people were here to arrest him, so he drew his knife and struck first!
"This place is not far from the government office. Someone just went out to report to the authorities. I can't stay any longer. Goodbye!"
Wang Dahe was wanted mainly because he had killed someone, the son of a county magistrate.
He couldn't stand the other party's behavior of forcing women of good character into prostitution, especially because the person being forced was his cousin, so he killed him in anger.
After killing the man, Wang Dahe ran away.
Later he heard that the county magistrate had actually killed his cousin's entire family.
So now, Wang Dahe is extremely hostile to those officials and bureaucrats, and will kill them whenever he can.
But for ordinary people, it won't be too difficult for him.
After bowing, he prepared to go downstairs and leave.
However, at this moment, dozens of people rushed in from the first floor, all of them were officers and soldiers from Qingzhou Prefecture.
During this extraordinary period, soldiers patrolled the city from time to time.
When Wang Dahe committed the crime, there happened to be patrolling officers nearby, so they just ran over.
"The suspect is on the second floor!"
The officers and soldiers learned the information from the diners on the first floor and immediately ran to the second floor.
Wang Dahe was just about to run downstairs when he saw this scene. He turned around and tried to escape from the window. A warrior cannot achieve transcendence unless he reaches the level of a grandmaster.
Even if you are a peak warrior above the ninth rank, as long as you are surrounded by people, you will be slowly worn down to death.
Wang Dahe was only a fourth-rank warrior. Facing five officers, he had to resort to a sneak attack and took advantage of the terrain to quickly kill them.
Otherwise, facing the five knife-wielding officers who were on high alert, Wang Dahe would not have chosen to fight head-on, but to quickly flee from the place.
Now, with dozens of soldiers attacking him, he had no intention of taking action and only wanted to escape quickly.
The best way, naturally, is to escape from the second-floor window.
So Wang Dahe rushed straight towards Qin Feng!
Seeing this scene, Qin Feng frowned and quickly stepped aside.
Wang Dahe ignored him, opened the window and jumped down.
Soon, a series of footsteps were heard from the bedroom door, and a group of soldiers rushed in.
Looking at the shaking window, the leader shouted: "Team Two, go and chase. The suspect is running south. Team One, arrest everyone in the inn to prevent the suspect's accomplices from escaping!"
After saying this, he glanced at the four people in the room and the body on the floor.
He emphasized: "The four people in this room must be kept under close watch, and the bodies must be dealt with."
Hearing this, the four people in the room had different expressions.
Another doctor was standing beside the bed with a look of panic on his face, while Jiao Liu and Gao Hai had frowns on their faces, with a hint of worry in their eyes.
Qin Feng also frowned slightly. He had not expected this. These soldiers were too overbearing. They actually wanted to detain everyone in the inn.
While he was thinking about it, half of the officers and soldiers quickly went out to chase after people.
Meanwhile, the other half of the group began to arrest people in the inn one after another.
Gao Hai gave Qin Feng a reassuring look, then stepped forward and bowed to the two officers and soldiers at the door of his room.
"My Lords, I am Gao Hai from the Gao family. The big man just escaped from the window of our room. He has nothing to do with us. I wonder..."
Before he could finish his words, one of the officers and soldiers fixed his eyes.
"Stop talking nonsense! No matter who you are, arrest you first! Someone will interrogate you whether you have any connection or not, and your words don't count!"
The officers and soldiers patrolling the city do not belong to the government system, but were recently transferred from outside the city.
They are not familiar with the situation in Qingzhou City, and the Gao family's name has no effect on them.
"You guys, don't mess with us. If you don't have any accomplices, we'll let you go after questioning you. It's best to behave yourself."
The situation at this moment is like a scholar meeting a soldier, and it is difficult to explain himself.
These officers and soldiers are just following orders and will not listen to your reasons.
Forced by the situation, Gao Hai did not dare to confront them.
All he could say was, "My brother is still receiving treatment, can you give me some time?"
The soldier glanced at Jiao Liu's right leg that was pierced with a silver needle and said expressionlessly, "Hurry up! Remove the needle. It won't be too late to treat him after the interrogation!"
Hard!
Gao Hai’s fist hardened!
At this moment, he wished he could smash the soldier's head with one punch.
But reason told him that he couldn't do this.
He took a deep breath, came to Qin Feng and said, "Please ask Doctor Zhou to pull out the silver needle and then continue to treat me."
"Please rest assured, Doctor Zhou. My Gao family still has some power in Qingzhou City. We will be released soon."
Gao Hai was not just talking empty words. His Gao family had been operating in Qingzhou Prefecture for so many years and had sponsored many students and had good relations with many officials.
He was just arrested by mistake, he didn't commit any crime, it was just a matter of saying hello.
