I am born with insufficiency

Chapter 55 Damei Luoshiwan ([-])
In order to facilitate the investigation of the case, Lord Yi allowed Ling An and the others to temporarily live in the government office, mainly because he was recommended by Prince Ji's mansion, and it was also convenient for him to keep abreast of his movements and the progress of the case.

For Gu Buquan, this is the only thing that makes her feel a little relieved in the past few days, at least the money for staying in the hotel in the next few days can be saved.

In the evening, Catcher Zhang enthusiastically delivered sesame cakes made by his wife, which saved her a fortune in food and drink.

The sesame cake was fragrant, and Zhang Catcher handed a piece to Sun Xiaokong to amuse him, but the monkey was not interested in the pancake, so he took a look at the pancake and threw it away. Before the pancake hit the ground, Zhang Catcher jumped on it and used it Two fingers pinched.

It's just that Zhang catches the head too hard, and the pancakes are crushed into pieces.

Ling An saw it and said, "Good work."

The little catcher, Ah Shui, smiled and said: "You idiot, you don't know, Zhang catcher's hand is called sesame skill. Because the sister-in-law works hard every day to make pancakes and sell them to subsidize the family, Zhang catcher does it for sister-in-law every day when she comes home. Kneading sesame cakes to make sesame candies has been practiced.”

The catchers laughed, and the catcher Zhang also smiled silly, and said: "Small family, my salary is not enough to support a family, and you have to rely on your sister-in-law to support you. You can't tire your sister-in-law." bad."

"This is called a virtuous wife and a good husband, and the family is harmonious and everything is prosperous."

Gu Buquan took a bite of the sesame cake, it was crispy and crispy, and a sesame aroma wafted out of his nostrils.

Before she could chew a mouthful of pancakes, she was stunned.

Sesame fragrance!
She remembered that it was this fragrance that was smelled on the neck of the female corpse.

She pondered: "Go to the morgue and have a look."

"Brother idiot, don't patronize Miss Buquan, you should eat it while it's hot." Zhang catcher said with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Butou's ridicule, Gu Buquan came back to his senses, only to realize that Ling An was holding a piece of sesame cake in his hand, looking at her with a smirk, and touching her mouth, a sesame seed stuck to the corner of her mouth.

Hua Yaoling's eyes had already burst into flames, and he called out angrily: "Idiot..."

Catcher Zhang felt that the atmosphere was not right, so he hurriedly handed another piece of sesame cake into Hua Yaoling's hand, and said, "Miss Rattle, eat more."

The sesame cakes were very fragrant, but Hua Yaoling looked at Zhang Catcher's hands holding the cakes, the nails were black, so she waved her hands, "I still don't want it."

Zhang Butou didn't take it seriously, he laughed and said: "Don't look at my black hands, they are all fragrant with sesame seeds. I used to pick them out with bamboo sticks, but then forget it, anyway, I have to knead sesame balls every day."

"Do you know why my sesame cakes are so fragrant? That's because after the sesame seeds are cooked, they are mashed with a mortar and then kneaded in the dough, so that the aroma of the sesame seeds is fully integrated into the dough, and the baked cakes are delicious. .I bet you have never eaten such a crispy sesame cake.”

Gu Buquan took a look at Zhang Tuotou's hand, the nails were black and full of sesame seeds.

"Bet, bet." Ling An suddenly stood up and said, "Casino."

Go out on your own.

Zhang Butou and all the other arresters were stunned.

Gu Buquan thought about it, and while selling some daily groceries, Zhujianer also quietly sold Damei Luoshiwan, and the price was not cheap, a box cost 60 taels of silver, which is not a big deal for ordinary people. But a year's home use.

But he still sells groceries on the street every day, and he doesn't even have a fixed storefront.

Moreover, according to the policemen who went to his house to search, his house was completely barren, and an old woman was so hungry that she wanted to bite someone, but I didn't see him eating, drinking or whoring.

That very high possibility is just a word of gambling.

I saw with my own eyes that day that a box of Da Meiluo Shiwan was sold for a gold ingot.On the second day, because he reported Chen Chuzhi, he won 50 taels of silver from Master Yi for nothing.

After that, he disappeared, so he might be hiding in some casino to play for money.

Gu Buquan said: "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and follow the idiot, go to the casino to find Zhu Jianer."

"It's no wonder we couldn't find him after running around." The policemen suddenly realized.

They soon sighed again. There are at least a dozen casinos in Qingzhou Prefecture, big and small.

"Prince Ji's Mansion is just this street." Ling An said decisively.

"Why do you know that?" Catcher Zhang was very surprised, "In my opinion, we should send more brothers to look for casinos in several streets, so as not to waste time."

"No need." Ling An was very resolute.

Gu Buquan asked: "Stupid, is it because we met a woman who bought wind chimes on this street yesterday?"

"Yeah." He looked at her and nodded.

"Then I understand." She smiled, "Yesterday we met a woman who bought wind chimes here, and Zhu Jianer said that she actually bought Dameiluofu Wan. I heard the little girl call Zhu The sharp names show that they are very familiar."

"I still remember that when the sedan chair came near Zhujianer, the woman lifted the curtain and poked her head out, indicating that she knew very well that Zhujianer often appeared here, or they had agreed long ago."

Zhang Butou was still puzzled: "So what?"

Gu Buquan explained patiently: "This is determined by people's habits. A gambler must be used to being in a familiar environment and a familiar casino to be at ease. Besides, he has a gold ingot and dozens of taels of silver in his pocket, let alone He will run to unfamiliar casinos. So, just look for him around here."

"Besides, this street is where Prince Ji's Mansion is located. I believe the casino is also the best. Zhu Jian'er should be on this street, and we can go find him and come back."

King Ji is an unfathomable person, so he built the Prince Ji's Mansion in the most prosperous and noisy area, which naturally has his deep meaning.

And this street is even more lively because of the presence of Prince Ji's Mansion, with all three religions and nine streams going back and forth, and the noise of buying and selling is constant, and there are two casinos at each end of the street, which is not found on other streets.

"The casino on the street is big, brother idiot led the brothers there. The casino at the end of the street is a little smaller, and Ah Shui and I are enough to go. Find someone and meet in front of Prince Ji's Mansion."

It was important to find Zhu Jian'er, Zhang Butou made some arrangements, and led Ah Shui to the end of the street.

However, Hua Yaoling couldn't move when she saw Prince Ji's mansion.

"Ouch, my feet." Hua rattles not far or near the gatekeeper of Prince Ji's mansion, twists her feet, squats on the ground and screams.

"Brother idiot, come quickly and help me." Hua rang the bell and stretched out a slender hand towards Ling An. Ling An had no choice but to go forward and pull her up.

Hua rattles the bell for a while longer, then stands up shyly, deliberately glances at the two gatekeepers of Prince Ji's mansion, they just smile and don't show any intention of knowing Ling An.

Flower rattles the bell for a moment of confusion.

"Not all, send the bell-ringing girl back first?"

Gu Buquan was stunned, when did he start calling her not Quanquan, but not Miss Quanquan?When she came to her senses, he had already walked away with a group of police officers.

"Okay." She agreed in a murmur, and had no choice but to reach out to support the flower rattle, but was thrown away by the flower rattle, and walked back angrily.

Gu Buquan thought it was funny, and shook his head, she couldn't get involved in this matter of taking people, and she just wanted to go to the morgue, so go back.

In the morgue, under the candlelight, the female corpse lay quietly.

Lifting her veil, in addition to a horribly destroyed face, there are also a pair of eyes that are open upwards, as if they are telling something.

Gu Buquan inspected the bruise on her neck carefully again, and took a deep sniff once again, and confirmed that it was sesame, but it was very faint, and could not be smelled easily.

She took a deep breath, checked down the neck bit by bit, and finally found a little black thing on the shoulders of the purple apron.

"Half a sesame seed?"
