Chapter 309: The murderer and the antique, both handed over
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Gao Mingcheng finally came down the mountain exhausted. After not sleeping all night and working hard for most of the day, even Gao Mingcheng felt a little tired.
Being tired is secondary. The main thing is being hungry.
In the morning, he roasted and ate all of Wang Zhi's yellow muntjac meat, and only gave Wang Zhi some leftovers to keep him alive temporarily.
But despite this, a lot of physical energy is consumed and people get hungry quickly.
Gao Mingcheng carried Wang Zhi on one shoulder and held a bag woven from vines in the other hand. The bag was made by him on the spot and the workmanship was crude, so it could only be used temporarily.
There was no way. He didn't bring a sack, and Wang Zhi didn't have a sack either. Therefore, he had nothing to put the antiques in. He could only use local materials and collected some tough vines to weave into a bag.
Fortunately, the skill of weaving is something that most people nowadays can do, but some people have good skills and can weave tightly, firmly and beautifully, while some people are clumsy and can only weave a rough framework.
Gao Mingcheng belongs to the latter.
Although it is still the New Year period, due to the murder, the atmosphere in Wangqiao Town is not so festive and there are not many pedestrians on the streets.
But when Gao Mingcheng was carrying people down from Taohualing, he was still discovered.
“It’s Wang Zhi!”
"We've caught the murderer!"
People spread the news, and the news that the murderer had been caught spread quickly.
Gao Mingcheng ignored those people. At this moment, he just wanted to hand the people and things over to Gao Guobing, then have a good meal and a good sleep.
"Ming Cheng, you went into the mountains?" Gao Guobing also learned the news and walked out from his temporary residence and office.
His face was flushed and he had a fever.
He had a fever in the second half of the night. Because of the fever, he stayed in the town to rest today instead of going into the mountains.
"Uncle, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?" Gao Mingcheng noticed that Gao Guobing's voice was hoarse and immediately realized that Gao Guobing might be sick.
Gao Guobing had no time to care about his own condition, but walked over excitedly to confirm whether the person Gao Mingcheng was carrying was Wang Zhi.
He had never seen Wang Zhi, but had heard others describe Wang Zhi's appearance.
At this time, Mayor Wang also walked over quickly, and with just one glance, he confirmed Wang Zhi's identity.
"It's Wang Zhi! We finally caught the murderer!"
"Xiaojun, go to the mountain and shout, tell everyone to come down quickly!"
Mayor Wang couldn't wait to explain.
These days, the police officers and the young and strong men in the town have been very busy, going into the mountains to look for people every day. Now, the murderer has finally been caught!
"Ming Cheng, how did you find the murderer?" Gao Guobing asked excitedly.
Since they came to investigate the case on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year until today, they have been busy for so long but have not even seen the shadow of the murderer.
But when Gao Mingcheng arrived, he actually caught the murderer!
Even though Gao Guobing knew that Gao Mingcheng was very skilled and had some tricks up his sleeve, he couldn't help but be shocked at this moment.
"Chief Wang, please prepare some hot meals for me. I'm starving." Gao Mingcheng turned to Chief Wang and said, then he said to Gao Guobing, "Uncle, I was walking around in the mountains and saw him, so I caught him. But this is not important. These are important."
Gao Mingcheng gently put down the crudely made bag in his hand, then opened it, revealing what was inside.
These things were relatively precious antiques, but he did not take those crude pottery jars.
"I found two ancient tombs he had dug in the mountains, and these things were what he dug out. There are also some pottery that I haven't taken down the mountain. Uncle, you can arrange for someone to go into the mountains to get them. Oh, and there are also coffins that have been dug up. I haven't had time to cover them with soil yet, so you have to arrange for that as well."
Gao Mingcheng handed all the people and things over to Gao Guobing for disposal, and described the location of the ancient tomb in detail.
Mayor Wang was very familiar with Taohualing, and he knew where it was after listening to Gao Mingcheng's description.
He immediately said that he would take people to the mountains to clean up the mess.
Gao Guobing also immediately arranged for two healthy police officers to accompany him.
Mayor Wang looked at Gao Mingcheng and said, "Brother Mingcheng, it's too late to cook now. I asked my wife to heat up your lunch and cook you a big bowl of noodles. Is that okay? If you want bread, I'll go to the bakery and get some."
Gao Mingcheng was already starving, so he was not picky about food. He said, "I have a big appetite and I am not picky about food. As long as I can eat it, it's fine."
After hearing what he said, Mayor Wang went to make arrangements.
Soon, both the people and the antiques were handed over to Gao Guobing, while Gao Mingcheng went to the kitchen to wait for dinner.
Gao Guobing had a fever and was ill, but at this moment he looked rosy-cheeked and energetic. He quickly arranged for someone to interrogate Wang Zhi and then went into the mountains to look for the ancient tomb.
At this time, the victim's family members heard the news and came over. They were very angry and wanted to beat the murderer. However, Wang Zhi was not in a good condition. Although he had committed a capital crime, he couldn't let anyone beat him up before the trial. So there was another round of dissuasion and comfort.
But these things naturally had nothing to do with Gao Mingcheng. After a big meal, he found a room to sleep.
After running around for a day and a night, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, it was already five o'clock in the morning of the next day.
Although it was early, he was in good spirits. He walked out of the house without washing up because the noise would wake up others.
He simply strolled along the streets and alleys of Wangqiao Town.
A county town can be said to be small in that its county center is indeed small, but it can be said to be large in that it manages 1 street, 9 towns, 4 townships, 3 reclamation farms, 1 forest farm and 1 provincial economic development zone.
So even though Gao Mingcheng has been a human for two lifetimes, this is his first time coming to Wangqiao Town.
Wangqiao Town is an ordinary town, with most of its residents being surnamed Wang. Although its name contains the word "bridge", there are not many bridges, only a small stone bridge and several small wooden bridges.
But there is no river in the entire county, so the bridge in Wangqiao Town is naturally just built beside a stream.
As for those wooden bridges, most of them are used to cross some streams or ditches.
Gao Mingcheng walked along the road and came to a wide area at the foot of the mountain. He took off his cotton jacket, stretched his muscles, and decided to practice a set of boxing here.
You need to practice boxing often so that you can punch quickly and powerfully.
After practicing a set of boxing, I was sweating all over. It was now bright in the sky and some people gradually got up early.
Gao Mingcheng could no longer wear his cotton coat, so he just walked back with it in his hand.
After returning to the room where he rested last night and washing up, he went to look for food.
"Ming Cheng, you still have a solution!" Huang Dazhi also got up early, and the two met.
Huang Dazhi followed the team into the mountains to chase the murderer early yesterday morning. Later, he heard someone shouting at the foot of the mountain that the murderer had been caught and asked them to come down the mountain quickly.
But when he went down the mountain, Gao Mingcheng had already fallen asleep.
However, Huang Dazhi also learned everything from other people. When he recalled that Gao Mingcheng had asked him where he found the rags that night, he had a guess in his mind.
It seems that Gao Mingcheng went into the mountains to look for someone overnight.
His courage and physical strength are beyond Huang Dazhi's reach.
At this time, he was already sore all over because he had been in the mountains for several consecutive days, but fortunately, the matter finally came to an end.
Huang Dazhi said: "We are going back to the county today. Director Gao said that we can use your tractor to take the murderer away."
"Okay." Gao Mingcheng nodded in agreement.
