Under the sky covered with clouds and snow falling, there were riots in Tokyo City at this time. Not only were there people chasing and fleeing in Songying Lane in the southwest of the city, but similar incidents also occurred in the northwest corner and the south direction. Many guilty guys were flying onto the streets, then jumping down the ditches that were high up, and drilling into the dark waterway entrances.

As the saying goes, there are three holes of cunning rabbits, and these thieves and bandits who do evil in Wuyou Cave are much more cunning than rabbits. Just the hiding site, they set up no less than four or five places in various places in the capital. Among them are individual inconspicuous courtyards, and some simply get the entire alley and get together.

Originally, they made these preparations to take care of each other when there are any changes and to facilitate them to do some shameful activities. But now, when they really meet the Ministry of Justice, Kaifeng Prefecture and the three departments of the street officials jointly handle the case and arrest them, these people dare not resist fiercely, and they can only flee in a hurry.

After all, these people are just brave bandits. Although they do a lot of evil on weekdays and have many innocent people who die at their hands, they think too much about it. When they face a large number of officers and soldiers, their first reaction is to flee.

However, this time their choice was quite correct, because this time the officers and soldiers were ready to go, and even prepared a large number of bows and arrows. Once they really fought head-on, some of them could fight out a bloody path, but the casualties must be several times that of now, and it is impossible for more than half of the people to jump into the waterway.

When they fled underground, the pursuit of the officers and soldiers stopped, leaving only some people to guard the spot, in case they attacked. However, this movement not only made the residents near these nests panic, but also finally attracted the imperial guards who were patrolling the capital and held accountable and investigated.

Zhao Kangming faced the reproach at this moment: "We have never heard of any problems with the people here, and there is no such thing as the street officials saying that they will be arresting prisoners today! This is Bianjing City, and the emperor is at the feet of the emperor. How can you let go of trouble? Take them all down for me!"

As the official made a big attack, the imperial guards behind him immediately rushed over, and the weapons in his hands were raised high and attacked at any time. This made the soldiers of the street departments feel excited. There were only a dozen people here, and the other brothers were searching people in the alley, but they could not handle it.

However, Zhao Kangming remained calm and immediately showed his token: "I am the official, Zhao Kangming, who dares to be arrogant? When will my street officer catch the bandits be approved by your patrol guards? And you always want us to release people, what is the idea of ​​using our way? Is it because I am not going to shelter the prisoners here?"

The officials on the other side suddenly felt weak and their momentum was immediately suppressed. Zhao Kangming really made the point. He rushed to the scene to disrupt the rhythm of the people here. Why did the bandits in Wuyou Cave live here with peace of mind but not investigated by the government? It was because they had already opened up the security forces on the ground, either bought them with money or intimidated by their backers. Anyway, after this, they have been alone for several years and have never encountered any trouble.

However, this also gradually made their vigilance lose. If they were to do those things outside, they might be careful and dare not reveal any flaws. But as long as they returned to their residence after doing the work, they would almost all relax. After all, there was no problem in many years, who would be useless guarding every day?

But sometimes the accident happened when people were unaware of it. These people never dreamed that when they were in tiles everywhere, crowded places, and stole property, their whereabouts were staring at by Sun Tu's already scattered eyes. Moreover, these people had no intention of taking people on the spot, stolen and captured them, but became patient and followed them through the streets and alleys, through half of Tokyo until they confirmed that they were all in the city and nests.

Because Sun Tu knew very well that if he wanted to catch all the ditch mice in one go and cure them, he had to find all their whereabouts, and then attack everywhere at the same time and catch them off guard.

To this end, he made many arrangements and mobilized the relevant people from the three yamen. This led to today's joint action and destroyed various nests in Wuyou Cave in the city. While holding half of the prisoners, he drove most of them into the underground waterway.

However, the scene in front of him seemed to be somewhat beyond Sun Tu's expectations. He did not expect that the protection of these guys - umbrella would be so blatant that he would dare to come out to turn the black and white at this time. Zhao Kangming was also stunned at that time, but at this moment he had calmed down and completely suppressed the other party in his momentum.

After he asked this, the other party was a little panicked again, and could only say with a stern voice: "It's simply nonsense. How could the officials in the court order such illegal and illegal things? I just wanted to prevent people from disturbing the public security in the capital. Moreover, you said that there are all prisoners here, but are there any evidence?"

"There will be evidence of this. The people under my officers are searching. If you suspect it, please follow me to go in and see it clearly." Zhao Kangming replied immediately. Just as he finished speaking, he saw a subordinate rushing over. The person who came was extremely ugly, as if he had found something terrible inside. Even the more imperial guards around him were ignored by him. As soon as he saw Zhao Kangming, he hurriedly reported: "Si Cheng, we found a lot of corpses in one of the yards..."

"What?" Zhao Kangming and the imperial guard officer both changed color at the same time and exclaimed. They didn't expect such a discovery. The subordinate swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said hard: "The bodies were all dug out from the ground, and they looked dead for a while, and..." When he said this, he looked strange again, feeling quite difficult to speak.

Zhao Kangming no longer cared about listening to his report, waved his hand to let several soldiers guard the entrance of the waterway, and hurried to the alley. The imperial guards were hesitating for a moment, and the official followed into the alley, but their expressions became a little strange.

The few people soon arrived at a house in the back section of the alley. Several street soldiers were guarding inside and outside the door. All of them looked solemn. Several of them were trembling slightly, obviously because of a considerable impact on their minds.

The subordinate who came to report the news whispered: "This yard was the last one we entered. I felt strange at that time. Someone else had already run out of the courtyards, but no one was seen here. We were also wary of one more brothers climbing over the wall and hitting the door. As a result, it was empty and there was no figure. After searching around, I found that the mud in the backyard was a little abnormal, and it looked like it had just been turned over. So some brothers tried to dig the soil to check it, and the result was..."

Needless to say, the words behind were coming, because they had arrived in the backyard, and the digging pit had been fully displayed in front of everyone.

Even though Zhao Kangming thought he had some knowledge and had dealt with some murders in the capital, he was still hit when he suddenly saw the scene in the pit. He saw six corpses lying on the pit. Because he died for a while, he was buried in the soil, he began to decay, and maggots kept popping up on the corpses.

Of course, this would not make him feel unacceptable. What really made him feel chilled and angry was that these corpses were all children! Although they had begun to be corrupt and could not see clearly, they could infer that they were only six or seven years old, which was about the age of Zhao Kangming's second son!

This makes people unable to deal with it calmly. The innocent dead or the most innocent child was killed and buried in this yard. The bandits in Wuyou Cave are more inhumane than he thought, and they deserve more damn!

After a moment of silence, Zhao Kangming also had a blue face like the others, and then looked at the leader of the imperial guard who had also changed color beside him: "I wonder if you still think they are innocent now?"

"I..." The man opened his mouth in a daze, but couldn't say anything. How could this happen? Who are the people living in this alley? Why did they dare to be so lawless in Tokyo?

Zhao Kangming didn't care about him at all, and immediately turned around and ordered: "Show everyone to death, but if anyone dares to resist the escapee, they will be killed without any hesitation! And everything in this alley needs to be carefully searched, even if an innocent person can be rescued, it is good!"

"Here!" The soldiers all responded in a stern voice, and then started to work hard again.

If it were placed in the border area, such a miserable scene would not attract too many thoughts. After all, someone died in that place, and his life was like a mustard of grass. It would be difficult for adults to protect themselves, let alone children. But this is Bianjing, the capital of the Song Dynasty. Such a tragic crime happened here, and its degree of terror is not acceptable to anyone with a conscience.

If Zhao Kangming had done all this before, with some bigger intentions and wanted to deal with some people, after seeing this tragic situation, he had thrown all these things behind him, just thinking about bringing a group of inhumane prisoners to justice. No matter what power they have backers behind him, he would completely eradicate them!
