The magistrate also saw it when he bypassed the trap
Li Wenbo, a middle-aged magistrate, has won the respect of the people with his keen insight and impartial ruling. On this day, as he was going through the file in his study as usual, when suddenly an anonymous letter slipped onto his desk. The handwriting in the letter is sloppy, but it exudes an air of urgency and danger. The letter mentions that someone is planning a trap against him with unknown intentions, but it is clear that the person who came is not good.
Li Wenbo's brows tightened, he knew that this was not groundless. He decided to act immediately, but only with caution and not to be detected by the conspirators. He began to recall recent political opponents and discontented voices, trying to find possible clues. He decided to start with the Courier, who might know more. Li Wenbo sent someone to secretly follow the messenger, hoping to find the clues behind the scenes through him.
At the same time, Li Wenbo also secretly strengthened his defenses, knowing that his every move might be monitored by the enemy. He began to patrol the county at night, observing the corners that he would not normally pay attention to, looking for possible hidden traps. His instincts tell him that the conspiracy is far more complicated than it seems.
It was late at night, but Li Wenbo didn't feel the slightest sleep. He sat in his study, playing with the anonymous letter in his hand, thinking to himself what to do next. He knew that this struggle had just begun, and that he had to take it step by step without slacking off.
In the county seat at night, the lights are dim, but Li Wenbo has no intention of appreciating this tranquility. He quietly followed the messenger through the winding alleys to a remote compound. The messenger knocked on the door a few times, and the door opened silently, and Li Wenbo hid in the shadows, watching every move in the courtyard.
In the courtyard, several figures gathered together and talked in low voices. Although the content of their conversation was vague, Li Wenbo, with his years of experience in adjudicating cases, still captured a few key words: "trap", "county magistrate", and "action". His heart tightened, these people were the conspirators he was looking for.
Li Wenbo cautiously approached, wanting to hear more clearly. Suddenly, a gust of wind arose, blowing the leaves in the courtyard and making a rustling sound. He was shocked, worried that he would be discovered, and hurriedly hid in the shadows on the side. At this moment, the people in the courtyard also stopped talking, as if sensing something. Li Wenbo held his breath, his heart beating like a drum.
After a few moments, the people in the courtyard did not seem to notice anything unusual and began to talk again. Li Wenbo took the opportunity to slowly approach, and this time he heard more information. It turned out that the family planned to create chaos in the county market, and then take the opportunity to attack Li Wenbo. They have already bought off a few scoundrels and are ready to cause trouble in the bazaar.
Li Wenbo knew what he knew, but he knew that this information alone was not enough to expose the entire conspiracy. He needed more evidence, he needed to know the specific plans and people involved in the family. So, he decided to continue his follow-up, looking for more clues.
Over the next few days, Li Wenbo transformed into an ordinary vendor and blended into the bazaar. He observes the bought scoundrels and records their every move. At the same time, he is also looking for opportunities to get close to the core members of that family, hoping to get more information from them.
One day, Li Wenbo overheard a conversation between two scoundrels at the bazaar, and they mentioned a young member of the family who seemed to have a lot of criticism about the plan. Li Wenbo had an idea and decided to start with this young man, maybe he could be the key to exposing the whole conspiracy.
Li Wenbo found this young man, his name is Xiaojie, and he is a marginal figure in the family. Xiaojie is dissatisfied with the family's approach, but is powerless to change. Li Wenbo revealed his identity and purpose to him, hoping that Xiaojie could help him. At first, Xiaojie hesitated, but under Li Wenbo's sincerity and righteous inspiration, he finally agreed.
Xiaojie tells Li Wenbo that the elders of the family plan to act on the market day next month, and they will use the props and manpower prepared in advance to create a seemingly unexpected fire, and then attack Li Wenbo in the chaos. He also revealed the identities of several key figures in the family and their roles.
Li Wenbo has a bottom in his heart, and he knows that he has enough information. But at the same time, he also realized that time was running out and he had to act quickly to prevent this catastrophe from happening. He said goodbye to Xiaojie and secretly thought about his next plan.
Night fell again, and Li Wenbo stood in front of the window, looking at the starry sky and pondering. He knew that the next action would be fraught with danger, but he also knew that for the sake of justice and the peace of the people, he had to rise to the occasion. He took a deep breath and prepared for the challenge that was coming.
As the market day approached, Li Wenbo's nerves tightened. He began to keep a close eye on the bought scoundrels, making sure that his every move was under his control. At the same time, he secretly gathered a group of loyal subordinates, ready to act at a critical moment.
The market day has finally arrived, and the county town is full of people and lively. Li Wenbo blended in with the crowd, his eyes scanning around sharply. He noticed that several scoundrels had begun to set up props in various corners of the bazaar, preparing to cause chaos. He quietly signaled to his men to get ready.
At that moment, a scoundrel lit a powder keg that had been prepared in advance, and a puff of smoke rose into the air. The crowd immediately fell into panic, screams and cries for help. Li Wenbo knew that this was a signal for the conspirators' actions.
He immediately commanded his men and quickly brought the scoundrels under control and stopped the fire from spreading. At the same time, his gaze was firmly fixed on several core members of the family, who were trying to take advantage of the chaos to get close to him.
Li Wenbo walked towards them decisively, his steps firm and powerful. When the family members saw him, a hint of panic flashed in their eyes, but it was quickly replaced by ruthlessness. They pulled out the weapons they had hidden on their bodies and prepared to attack Li Wenbo.
However, Li Wenbo was prepared. The men behind him quickly stepped forward and engaged in a fierce struggle with the family members. Li Wenbo took advantage of the chaos and quickly approached the leader of the family and grabbed him by the collar.
"Do you think that's going to work? Li Wenbo stared at each other coldly, his voice full of undoubted majesty.
The leader of the family struggled, but was soon subdued by Li Wenbo's men. At the same time, the other family members were subdued one by one, and the whole plot was completely foiled.
The crowd gradually calmed down, and when they saw that the conspiracy was exposed, they all cast admiring glances at Li Wenbo. Li Wenbo stood in the middle of the bazaar, looking around, and a sense of pride surged in his heart. He knew that he had once again protected the peace of the people.
But at this moment, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a detail. In the midst of the chaos, an inconspicuous vendor quietly left the bazaar, his figure appearing a little hurried. Li Wenbo's heart moved, could it be that this peddler was also related to the conspiracy? He decided to follow him secretly to see if he could find new clues.
Li Wenbo quietly followed behind the hawker, through the bustling crowd, and came to a remote alley. The peddler didn't seem to notice that someone was following, and he walked into a dilapidated yard. Li Wenbo hid in the shadows, observing the movements in the courtyard.
In the courtyard, the vendor was talking to a mysterious figure, and although the voice was low, Li Wenbo heard some key information. It turned out that this vendor was an insider in the family, and he was responsible for carrying information at the market and assisting the family's actions. And that mysterious figure seems to be a representative of the larger forces behind the family.
Li Wenbo was shocked, and he realized that this conspiracy was far more complicated than he imagined. He decided to stay put, continue to observe, and look for more evidence. He knows that this fight is not over and that greater challenges await him.
As night fell, Li Wenbo stood quietly outside the courtyard, his heart full of determination. He knew he had to be more careful to uncover the truth about this larger conspiracy. He took a deep breath and prepared for the next challenge.
