As a sweetheart in the palm of your hand

Chapter 5 The Second Reporter

Chapter 5 The Second Reporter
Between these two sentences, Fang Wu and the two had already walked to the front of the noodle vendor.

This street can be regarded as a bustling street, and it is also some distance away from the yamen.

Unaware of the conversation between the two outside, Ji Xuan went into a room.

The room was quite warm, a stove was lit, but Ji Xuan didn't go in and leaned against the door.

"About what time do you get up on weekdays?" He didn't light any wax, he just asked the child.

"I got up earlier today because I drank too much water last night. It will be late in the past." The child scratched his head and said.

Ji Xuan was taken aback for a moment, remembering the things on the suicide note, and the candles and wine in the house.

If it was really delayed until Sishi, then maybe this child is already a mummy.

Because the suicide note probably stated that the woman felt that life was suffering so she wanted to die, and she didn't want to leave the child alone to suffer, and she couldn't do it, so she wanted to burn the house down.

"Who knows your daily work and rest time." Ji Xuan continued to ask.

"Work and rest? I don't understand." The child stammered.

Ji Xuan said, "It's when to get up and go to bed."

"Only my mother."

"Your father doesn't live with you?" Ji Xuan asked again.

The child said: "Live together, but I haven't seen him very much, he only stays at home for a day and a half every day during the day."

"Yeah." Ji Xuan hummed, and then entered the next door, the person next door is naturally a big man.

It was a little cold next door. Although there was only one wall, the windows were sealed with iron bars, and the door was also an iron door.

"How is the relationship between your husband and wife? Your son said that you often leave early and return late." Ji Xuan didn't go in, still leaning against the door and asking.

"Not bad. My mother-in-law returned the money to me." The big man did not hesitate, and his tone was showing off.

"I said, can you investigate the case carefully? I am in a hurry to bury my mother-in-law. The weather is getting hotter and hotter." The big man couldn't stop talking, one sentence after another.

Ji Xuan always felt that something was wrong, but she didn't think clearly what was wrong for a while.

It was also at this time that a yamen servant ran over and said, "Ji Tongzhi, someone has reported the crime outside."

Ji Xuan was taken aback, and followed the yamen servant outside.

Around the same time, the noodle vendor was in front.

Some Fang Wu and the others took them home like this, and naturally they also ate them at the street vendors.

"Let me tell you, the housing prices on Baihebi Hill are getting expensive again." A man with a mouth full of gold teeth said.

"It's expensive. I'm not short of money. I don't believe it. In this Xuefu county, no one else can compare to me." The woman sitting opposite the man, wearing a necklace and wearing silk, said indifferently.

"Come on, you're not short of money, and you're not short of money to eat street vendors? Why don't you go to restaurants?"

On this street vendor, the people watching the excitement couldn't stand it any longer, and went over to take pictures of a table.

Fang Wu and the two of them found it quite interesting, but felt that the talking woman was really annoying.

At this time, Zhang Xuan took over the bamboo basket handed over by the store, pulled Fang Wu who was still watching the excitement, and said, "Don't look, see? The yamen servants in front are moving again. If you don't go back, you will be scolded." myself."

Zhang Xuan said, and left with the basket.

Fang Wu weighed his feet and looked, sure enough, many government servants entered the Bazi alley from all directions.

Although he only stayed in the yamen for three months, he also knew that as soon as someone reported the crime, the yamen servants would find painters and servants to enter the yamen.

Fang Wu didn't bother to watch the excitement anymore, and hurried to catch up. She wasn't afraid of being scolded, but she was afraid of missing the case, so that she wouldn't be able to stay in the future. If she wanted to keep it in the yamen, she had to have skills or money.

The horoscope alley was filled with darkness, and Ji Xuan squinted his eyes on the chair under the upright plaque in the hall.

Fang Wu came in after Zhang Xuan. Many government servants in the hall were holding killing sticks, and some painters were drawing something with an easel.

Before Fang Wu had time to understand what was going on, he heard Zhang Xuan pulling a man in a turquoise robe and saying, "Master An is looking for someone from the household registration office? After a while, the business in this class is over, and I will find it for you."

As soon as these words came out, both Fang Wu and Ji Xuan were taken aback, Fang Wu hadn't spoken yet.

Ji Xuan picked up the dusty gavel on the table and patted it lightly: "Who do you say he is? He is the informant."

Fang Wu also took a step forward and looked at the people in the hall. Only shopkeeper An and a short man in bunts next to shopkeeper An, the rest were basically official uniforms.

Therefore, anyone with a discerning eye can probably tell that these two are the informants.Then why did Zhang Xuan want to greet the reporter?

And the two of them looked very familiar.

"Oh, he is the shopkeeper of the rejuvenation drug store, and he often attends consultations. I thought someone died in his store, so I asked him if he was someone from the household registration office." Zhang Xuan whistled habitually, not embarrassed at all. I introduced it to several people.

Zhang Xuan has been running around in Xuefu County for a long time, and he basically knows everyone in Xuefu County.

Of course, it's normal that he doesn't know those who live too far away and have weird personalities. After all, anyone who wants food will go to many places, right?
"Zhang Chuzhi misunderstood. I'm looking for you." An Qing also said with a calm smile.

"Okay, let's write the petition in the back hall, it's endless day by day." Zhang Xuan nodded and dragged Ji Xuan into the classroom.

Fang Wu followed the three of them and also entered the class, the atmosphere here was not as tense as outside.

The tables inside were covered with portraits, in a mess.

Ji Xuan randomly found a piece of clean paper and stuffed it for An Qing to sit on the chair and watch him write.

In the room, six eyes were staring at the paper, but An Qing didn't pay much attention to it, she just scribbled a few words, and there was still time to browse the portraits on the table between writing.

"Did you only lose a bag of black pockmarks? Do you know when it disappeared?" Ji Xuan asked after receiving the certificate.

"I don't know. Anyway, when I picked up the medicine today, I was short of one pack, and one pack is eight taels." An Qing hesitated and replied.

"Then how did you find out today? Could it be that someone used it and didn't say anything?" Fang Wu asked.

Black seed is a kind of medicine for treating insomnia, so it is very common and a commonly used medicine.

"No, every pack of medicine is recorded. Today, this patient needs to use more. There is just enough in the cabinet, but I don't have enough to take. It must be short after calculation. Yamen." An Qing said with certainty.

"Know him?" Seeing that An Qing was always looking at the portrait of the big man, Zhang Xuan asked him about it.

"I don't know him, I just think he looks weird and I just need to pay more attention." An Qing said without hesitation.

When talking, his eyes blinked constantly, and even his lips were slightly upturned.

This makes people feel that these words have been in his stomach for a long time, and it is only logical to say them.

"Well, let's go back and have a look. You can go back." Zhang Xuan nodded and sent the person out.
