White Cat Legend Episode 25 Recap
> White Cat Legend Recap
Court of Judicial Review received a report. As Li Bing had temporarily returned to his hometown to pay respects to his father, Shangguan Qin took over the case. Shangguan Qin asked the Mingjing Hall members to accompany her to the scene. Wang Qi intentionally created an opportunity for Alibaba to be alone with Shangguan Qin. As many known clues were related to the Jinwu Guard, Wang Qi and Sun Bao visited the vicinity of the Jinwu Guard headquarters.
There was a wonton stall in front of the Jinwu Guard gate. Generally, except for major holidays, vendors were not allowed in front of government agencies. Seeing that the tableware had clearly been used for a long time, it must have been there for a long time, very likely an informant deliberately placed in front of the Jinwu Guard gate. Wang Qi speculated that it was unlikely Qiu Qingzhi acting mysterious. The person with such authority might be Lai Zhongshu.
In order to figure out the owner behind the wonton stall, Wang Qi started thinking of a way. Shangguan Qin took Alibaba into a brothel. The informant was an actress. She said that when she was bored every day, she would see pigeons flying past her window at a very regular time. A few days ago, she opened the window and saw a dead pigeon in front of it. A note was tied to its leg, written in Hu text.
The first two characters were "locust". After reading the note, she didn't understand the reason, so she casually threw the pigeon downstairs. When she looked again, the pigeon was gone. The next day, two people claiming to be Court of Judicial Review officials came to verify with her, but when asked for their specific positions, they were hesitant.
Shangguan Qin remembered that the murder case Li Bing had just solved involved Lu Chenghuang, and it was likely related to this matter, so she began looking for places where pigeons were raised. Li Bing took Chen Shi back to the dock and asked the boatman about the Taixing boat. The boatman said the boat had long been abandoned and its wreck was nearby. Li Bing took Chen Shi and carefully walked into the abandoned Taixing boat.
In the bottom cabin, there was a wooden box with a nine-ring lock. At this moment, a thick smoke drifted in from the cabin window. Chen Shi blocked the window, and Li Bing quickly unlocked the nine-ring lock and opened the wooden box, which led directly into the river. The two plunged into the water together and saw a bundle floating on the surface of the river. The two opened the bundle. Inside was Wang Zhi's death row prisoner tag.
Another tag only had the character 'Du' written on it. Li Bing finally connected several things. Du Zixu disappeared after entering the Ministry of Personnel, he should have been imprisoned in the death row. Hu Ji from the brothel had said that her father had a boat and was murdered on the boat with Du Zixu three years ago, suspecting the killer was Yi Zhi Hua.
Besides this, there was a door nail in the bundle, similar to the door nail at Li Bing's home. Wang Qi pretended to be a ruffian and caused trouble at the wonton stall in front of the Jinwu Guard gate. Someone quickly reported to Lai Zhongshu. It turned out that the wonton stall owner was Lai Zhongshu's uncle. Lai Zhongshu was drafting a confession.
Hearing about the disturbance, he put the confession away in a leather pouch, put it away carefully, and looked back cautiously before going out. Sun Bao was hiding on the beam and secretly saw everything. Shangguan Qin and Alibaba found the place where pigeons were raised, and then followed a pigeon to a Hu camp. The note on the pigeon's leg said: I have already seen Li, the mask is in his hand.
As it was Hu text, Shangguan Qin could not understand it. Cui Bei re-examined the case files and discovered that the Jinwu Guard was looking for Wu Yiren, a former Director of the Mingjing Hall, who was later imprisoned in death row for offending someone. If this person could be found, they would know Du Zixu's whereabouts. Li Bing took out a note from the door nail at his home. It recorded the reason for Du Zixu's murder.
Qiu Qingzhi suddenly brought people and broke into Li Bing's residence. Seeing Li Bing at home, he advised him not to interfere with the case and also wanted to inquire about what Li Bing knew regarding the several murder cases. Li Bing was unwilling to share. Qiu Qingzhi then went to Court of Judicial Review, preparing to arrest the other Mingjing Hall members to take them back to the Jinwu Guard for interrogation. Shangguan Qin arrived in time and exchanged a pigeon for the Mingjing Hall members.
