Our Mommy is the Best Investigator! Chapter 230

Chapter 230 The mind is terribly delicate

Chu Nanzhi looked around at the densely packed figures pouring out from everywhere, and suddenly looked bitter.

Though the costumes of those people were the same, but showing their identities by showing the special knives in their hands, there should be as many as twenty or thirty people.

This can be a headache.

It was the first time she met the Dongsang people, and only some terrible memories about them passed down by the elders remained in her memory.

I still remember that when she first came here, she boasted in front of Hu Maoxi in order to solve the tax and bank case, saying that there were no Dongsang people in the Dahe Empire, and she did not expect that there were so many thieves hiding across a mountain range.

But she definitely doesn't believe in the rumored demons, but they are all flesh and blood, and these people don't look any different except that they are uglier than Lin Jinxiao.

The crystal eyes kept flickering, and looked vigilantly at the Dongsang people who were surrounding them. The leader swaggered the long knife in his hand, and then carried it on his shoulder with a happy expression, and shouted at the crowd at the gate of the city. Said: "Tan Miaojun, let me solve this trouble for you today."

Tan Miao looked at Chu Nanzhi and Lin Jinxiao with a dazed expression, and hurriedly urged: "We must get rid of them as quickly as possible, otherwise I won't be able to explain."

"it is good."

After the man finished answering, he led a group of people striding over.

Chu Nanzhi clenched her fists, and was about to go up to beat the thief, but was dragged back by Lin Jinxiao.

Lin Jinxiao calmly gestured to Peng Pai and Ma Laifu, "Get in the carriage."

Then he pulled Chu Nanzhi into the carriage first, and Li Sanmu immediately surrounded the carriage with a few people behind him, all of them clenched their sabers and their eyes were full of vigilance.

Chu Nanzhi turned her head in confusion, only to see servants swarming from all directions with sabers in their hands, fighting towards the surrounding Dongsang people.

Chu Nanzhi glanced at him angrily: "You have already prepared?"

Lin Jinxiao replied casually: "They rested by the canal in the west of the city all day, and they should be back by now."

Chu Nanzhi followed him and sat down, and asked a little puzzled: "Master Hu didn't let them look for clues?"

"Didn't the lady also want them to really look for clues?"

Lin Jinxiao held her hand, and looked at her affectionately: "It's just a show anyway, why don't they find a shady place to rest and recharge their energy before they can fight."

Chu Nanzhi saw that the little fair face was getting more and more shameless, and she didn't give him a good face in front of Peng Pai and Ma Laifu, and said coquettishly: "Lin Dalang, you are really getting more and more dishonest."

"Who is a serious person who would honestly stay in the county government office and watch a half-century old man play cool and cute."

Lin Jinxiao snorted disapprovingly, thinking in his heart that Tan Miao lied to him today and wanted him to leave the house for a day, and now he finally let the old guy get his wish.

I am still too young to withstand the temptation.

He was about to speak again, but there was a faint spasm and tingling pain in his leg. After bumping this way on the horse's back, he didn't expect that the leg injury still couldn't support him.

At this time, no one could notice anything. He forced himself to remain calm and continued to face Chu Nanzhi, and asked slowly in a soft tone: "What clues can we find outside the city south today?"

"There are some, but Chen Wu has to be found."

Chu Nanzhi thought about it and replied.

"Chen Wu will appear today."

Lin Jinxiao's eyes looked very determined, he believed in Li Ce's ability.

This guy has been away for so long and hasn't come back. He must have tracked down some clues, otherwise he wouldn't leave him alone.

"Um."

Thinking of what he said to Tan Miao just now, Chu Nanzhi asked curiously: "You have only been here for three days, why are you so sure to suspect Master Tan?"

"Do you remember the day when you first arrived at the posthouse?"

Lin Jinxiao reminded with a smile.

"Remember."

Chu Nanzhi nodded and looked at him.

Lin Jinxiao said in detail: "That day, Kang Mingyuan interrogated the postman and the handymen in front of the posthouse for a long time, but no one revealed the truth, and Tan Miao was only a mere chief bookkeeper, and he found out the whole story with just a few words. It can be seen that this person It's unusual, either he already knew what happened, or his position in the county government is unusual."

"So you suspected that you were in Master Tan's book from the very beginning?"

Chu Nanzhi couldn't help but be impressed by this guy's delicate thought again.

This guy's thoughtfulness is so delicate that it's a little frightening. Looking for clues through such small details, he suspects Tan Miao before himself.

It seems that in the future, I have to be careful to guard against this little boy, and I can't be caught by him.

Lin Jinxiao frowned with a half-smile, and continued to look at Chu Nanzhi: "I haven't found enough evidence for the death of the previous county magistrates, but you have found Chen Wu, which means that the truth is not far away."

Having said that, he half lowered his head, looking a little resentful.

Today, I deliberately asked Tan Miao, and this fellow actually said that he was not familiar with Chen Wu, and that more than 500 acres of land could be put under his name, which showed that the relationship between the two was extraordinary.

Looking up at Chu Nanzhi, his melancholy disappeared in a flash, and his eyes were filled with tenderness again: "Before coming to Haikang County, two mentors told me something, that is, the group of Dongsang people mentioned just now, they Since sneaking into the mainland two years ago, it has neither entered the mainland nor left, Princess Shu has been sending people to secretly investigate this matter."

"So you suspect that they are lurking in Haikang County?"

Chu Nanzhi looked at him in thought.

"good."

Lin Jinxiao replied: "Kang Mingyuan has amassed a lot of money in Haikang County, plundering countless gold and silver. He definitely doesn't like Dongsang people's bribery. Moreover, as a county magistrate, he understands the imperial court's attitude towards Dongsang people. If there is no customs clearance document in the past, he would never dare to risk his life and allow the thieves to lurk into the county. Only low-level civil officials like Tan Miao dare to do this. When I was a county official, I got some clues."

At this point, he smiled meaningfully at Chu Nanzhi: "Tan Miao is greedy for fame on the surface, but he is not as pragmatic as you, my lady. His behavior in the past two years is too abnormal. Such a big move How can we not make people suspicious of buying a farmhouse?"

"No wonder you imprisoned all the officials in solitary confinement as soon as you took office."

Chu Nanzhi showed an expression of enlightenment, but she didn't want to explain the little boy's words of "praising himself for being pragmatic", whether it was good words or sarcasm.

I am not an official of the imperial court now, investigating cases and pleading grievances for others depends on my personal preference, and taking money from others can also eliminate disasters for others, and there is no problem in doing business properly.

Thinking of this, she felt more and more urgent to reconcile with Lin Jinxiao.

If you continue to stay by his side, you will not be so at ease when you go out to investigate cases as the wife of a fifth-rank official family and want to collect money from other people's families.

If you fail, you will be charged with accepting bribes from others.

Ask for monthly tickets, recommended tickets, and various tickets.
