Li Hao remembered!
Speaking of swords, the Li family really has one... or one?
The reason for some uncertainty is because the sword that Li Hao remembered... it's a bit unlike a sword.
Unfortunately, Li Hao also knew that this was the sword.
It's very contradictory.
However, this is a fact.
When Li Hao was a child, his father wore a sword shaped jade pendant around his neck and told him seriously, "This is called the Starry Sky Sword, which is the only old item passed down from my Li family. In the future, you can give it to your child. Don't say it's jade, this is the sword
When speaking, my father is very serious.
Of course, after a moment of seriousness, when Li Hao was lost and his father was also very helpless, he said, "This is what your grandfather told me. The words passed down from our ancestors are all explained in this way. We must say it's a sword. Anyway, you just call it that
That's why Li Hao first realized that the Li family really has a sword, called the Starry Sky Sword.
In fact, it is now wearing a small sword shaped jade pendant around Li Hao's neck.
At this moment, Li Hao is slightly confused.
If the Li family's sword mentioned in slang refers to this jade pendant, then the Li family does indeed have a sword.
Do the Zhang family have knives?
Others, Li Hao, are not very clear. Zhang Yuan's parents passed away early, and Li Hao has known him for many years. He is very familiar with Zhang Yuan.
The Zhang family's knife
Li Hao carefully recalled for a while, does the Zhang family have a knife?
Recalling the past, soon, Li Hao's eyes moved slightly. The Zhang family may indeed have a knife.
Unlike his own jade pendant, jade is at least a valuable item, and it is still an old jade. The Li family still values it to some extent.
And with the knife of the Zhang family, Li Hao suddenly remembered when he was a child, he went to play with Zhang Yuan's house. Zhang Yuan once stole something and played with Li Hao, but was soon discovered by Zhang Yuan's father and beat him up.
That thing... looks like a knife shaped stone.
At this moment, Li Hao's memory was somewhat distant and vague, but he vaguely remembered that day when Zhang Yuan's father cursed for a while, saying that the thing was left by his ancestor. Although it was not valuable, he passed on a broken stone, but it was also left by his ancestor and must not be thrown around.
Of course, in fact, Li Hao clearly saw that Zhang Yuan's father had casually thrown the stone aside. Li Hao suspected that Zhang Yuan's father was just trying to beat his son that day and casually made an excuse.
Is that the Zhang family's knife mentioned in slang
If that's the case, then we can get it right.
Later on, Li Hao never saw that stone again. In fact, as they grew older, Li Hao and Zhang Yuan would not idle and run to play with a stone. There were many on the roadside.
At this moment, Li Hao was generally certain that what was said in this slang song was probably true.
Subconsciously touching my chest, the jade pendant was cool and remained unchanged.
This hint of coolness also made Li Hao instantly awaken. Soon, he looked at Chen Na with some longing and impulse, and quickly said, "Sister Na, can I see your grandmother
He wants to know where this piece of music came from, who passed it on, how many years has it been spread, is it complete or not?
Why is this self immolation case related to a rural slang song?
What is that Red Shadow? Why do you want to kill the people of the Eight Schools in this slang song?
Moreover, if you want to kill someone, do you want to kill them all, or do you want to kill anyone related to the Eight Families? If so
Hmm
Before Chen Na could speak, Li Hao suddenly froze.
He quickly opened the files and archives, even though he had read them countless times, he still quickly checked them and muttered, "Hong Jiao's parents have passed away. She died at a young age, so after Hong Jiao's death, there are no other people in the Hong family
On Zhou Qing's side, his lover is still alive, but Zhou Qing has no children and the couple has not given birth to any offspring for many years
Zhang Yuan doesn't need to say
Zhang Yuan is the only child of the Zhang family. Zhang Yuan's parents passed away at an early age, so Zhang Yuan is also the only descendant of the Zhang family.
When Wang Haoming died, he was not married yet, but Wang Haoming was not an only son. He also had a younger brother
Liu Yunsheng is an old man who has been single for a lifetime
Zhao Shihao has a daughter. After Zhao Shihao's death, he left Yincheng with his wife and his whereabouts are unknown
Li Hao quickly checked and found that some of these people were married, some had children, and not all of them were alone, so Li Hao had not found any problems in this before.
But at this moment, Li Hao suddenly thought of himself.
My parents passed away unexpectedly three years ago... an absolute accident, caused by the vehicle losing control and overturning, but... is it still an accident now
Li Hao's parents passed away three years ago.
It was caused by an accident!
There is no connection with the self immolation case, so Li Hao has never included his parents in this case before because it is a self immolation case.
At this moment, Li Hao's heart was filled with myriad thoughts.
The four families of Zhang, Hong, Zhou, and Liu have completely cut off and no direct connections exist.
Wang Haoming has a younger brother, Zhao Shihao has a daughter, and if the Li family's sword says Li, then the Li family... seems to be on their own.
This is not killing one person, but... extermination
My heart grew even more frightened, and at the same time, I became even more angry!
My parents, not accidental death?
Of course, all of this cannot be completely determined, after all, there are still people from the Wang and Zhao families now.
Li Hao
Chen Na's shout made Li Hao wake up.
Are you okay
When Chen Na saw Li Hao finish asking, she answered on her own, but he didn't pay attention, as if her mind was wandering.
It's okay
Li Hao quickly shook his head, and Chen Na glanced at him and suddenly said, "You... do you think these people are related to several families in the song? But they are all rural slang, some are adapted from some myths, and some are simply sung casually on weekdays. I think it may just be a coincidence, isn't it two less
As she spoke, she wanted to laugh, but before she could laugh out, she suddenly became slightly stunned and glanced at Li Hao.
Two families are missing, one surnamed Zheng and the other surnamed Li!
Li Hao?
Is this related to Li Hao?
She is at least also a patrol inspector, with some basic logic and thinking. In an instant, she was associated with Li Hao. Li Hao has been chasing these people, wouldn't it be related to him?
Li Hao, your surname is Li, right
Li Hao let out a bitter smile, can I say?
Chen Na immediately frowned and said, "To be honest with me, is there a problem with the deaths of these six people
She looked at the documents, but did not look carefully, but it seemed that they were all accidental death, and they were not concentrated in one year, which could also be related?
Sister Na, can I meet your grandmother without mentioning this
Li Hao doesn't want to talk too much about it.
Upon seeing this, Chen Na no longer asked, but suppressed the matter and said, "I just said, but you didn't hear me. My grandmother passed away a few years ago
Sorry
It's okay. When my grandmother left, she was already in her nineties, which can be considered a funeral
Chen Na didn't have much to say, "But many people on my grandmother's side can sing this song... It was like this when I was a child, but now I don't know how many elderly people are still alive in my hometown. I haven't been back for years
Chen Na saw that Li Hao was interested and said, "Otherwise, if you're really interested, let's take some time to visit my hometown and have a field check. If you encounter an elderly person who can sing, maybe you can ask something
Li Hao thought for a moment and nodded.
We will rest the day after tomorrow. Is it convenient for you, Sister Na
Yes
The two of them agreed, and Li Hao didn't bother about it anymore. She quickly said, "Sister Na, you have a wider relationship with the inspection department than me. Can you help me
Let's talk about it
At this moment, Li Hao, because he had shown Chen Na the files and no longer kept them hidden, whispered, "Can you help me check the whereabouts of a few people? The first one is Wang Haoming's younger brother. He is not in Yincheng, and he is only a relative of Wang Haoming. After Wang Haoming's death, he has not returned for a long time
The second one, Zhao Shihao's daughter! After Zhao Shihao's death, his daughter and his wife moved together and left Yincheng, but there was no news
The only area that the Yincheng Inspection Department can manage is Yincheng, which has no jurisdiction over other areas and no qualifications for file retrieval.
I'm looking for Chen Na because she knows more people in the inspection department.
On the inspection department side, Li Hao is not familiar with the inspection department in the outer city, but there are always colleagues, classmates, and friends from other people working in the inspection department in other places. If you really want to go and inquire, you can also get information.
Chen Na's eyes flickered slightly.
How many families of the parties involved are being investigated?
What does Li Hao mean?
Sister Na, do you think you can find it
Chen Na thought for a moment and nodded, "If there is generally an area, then it's easy to investigate. I'm afraid there won't be any clues. You should know, after leaving Yincheng, the world is vast, and we don't have cross regional law enforcement authority or data query authority. If we entrust someone, we also need to have a fixed target to investigate
I understand. I have some information about them. I will write it to you later. Although I don't know the specific location, I still know which city they are in
Li Hao searched for a long time and also had some understanding of the family members of several deceased people, but because the other person was out of town, Li Hao was unable to contact them.
That's easy to handle, let me handle this
Chen Na agreed happily.
Li Hao quickly thanked him.
After a while, Chen Na suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Li Hao, there's something... you should pay attention to it anyway! I think... I think this may not be too simple
She's not stupid either, and she guessed something roughly.
At this moment, Chen Na is considering whether Li Hao would also encounter danger if he were really Li from the "Li Family Sword" in slang?
The inspection department is not afraid of danger, but is afraid of danger from unknown sources.
The cases of those few people were all caused by accidents.
Li Hao nodded slightly and didn't say much.
And Li Hao himself has a lot of things to do at the moment and needs to verify.
He wants to investigate the case 10 years ago. Has the Zheng family died?
If circumstances permit, he will go to Zhang Yuan's house again. After Zhang Yuan's death, his house will be empty. Li Hao wants to go and see if Zhang's knife is still there?
Not only the knives of the Zhang family, but also the hammers of the Hong family, the guns of the Zhou family, and the weapons in these slang songs. Do they exist or not?
Is it the people of the Eight Schools or the weapons of the Eight Schools in slang that Red Shadow is targeting?
There's no need to say much about fists and feet. If a person dies, there's nothing left.
Can weapons, if each family really has a heritage, like the Li family, when the heirloom is passed down, perhaps some clues can still be found.
It is necessary to determine the purpose of Red Shadow and gain a better understanding of the other party in order to better respond to the crisis.
Li Hao did not go directly to the Zhang family, nor did he go home. He still has something to do.
Inspection Department.
Archive.
Aunt Zhao, who manages the archives, took out a pile of documents from the dusty warehouse, patted the dust, and raised a mist.
I handed the yellowed information to Li Hao and said strangely, "Xiao Hao, what do you want these for? From 1715 to 1719, the list of Zheng surnames who died and cancelled their accounts in Yincheng was all here, a total of several hundred people. However, everyone has been dead for many years
Li Hao's face was filled with a pure smile, "Zhao Jie, there are some suspicious cases in the confidential room that involve these. The specific details are not much to say. You are tired, and I found a clue later. I will treat you to dinner
Let's just eat, Xiao Hao. You're 20 years old now, and even if you're young, my daughter is 22 years old, two years older than you
Li Hao felt a bit helpless and still kept smiling, "Sister Zhao, let's talk back. I'm still young
As he spoke, he quickly left with the file in a slightly awkward state.
The mothers of the inspection department are very enthusiastic, but that's not very good. They like to introduce their daughter to him.
Either a daughter, a niece, or a girl from someone's family.
Who allowed him, Li Hao, to be admitted to Yincheng Ancient Academy? Although he dropped out, it still did not affect his popularity.
Li Hao, who had obtained the list, quickly flipped through it.
The list of hundreds of people is not many, and generally all of them have introduced the cause of death. This is the list of account cancellations. Next, Li Hao needs to exclude some of them and combine some other information to determine if there are any Zheng family members he is looking for.
The best outcome, of course, is to have a direct introduction, and to die from self immolation is the best and most convenient.
Li Hao has discovered that Red Shadow kills people, or if there is any force behind Red Shadow, they kill the legitimate or only descendants of the Eight Families by self immolation.
If that weren't the case, Li Hao wouldn't be able to lock in the front few people.
Perhaps there are some secrets hidden among them that Li Hao is currently unable to uncover.

Hmm, very suspicious here. Seems there definitely are secrets that Li Hao cannot uncover yet indeed!
