The flower-picking robbers caused a stir in the city, and everyone knew about it.

The rich man’s daughter in Suzhou’s face changed, and everyone was in danger.

Especially those beautiful young ladies from rich families have nightmares about being tortured by flower pickers when they sleep at night.

Naturally, the prefect of Suzhou and the magistrates of various prefectures are responsible for investigating and arresting such cases. Jinyiwei usually pursues major and important cases related to politics, so naturally they will not intervene in such cases.

Magistrate Liu sighed and said: “This thief has committed many crimes in Suzhou. Last night, this flower picker sneaked into the mansion of Mr. Lu, the magistrate of Taicang County, and destroyed Mr. Lu’s daughter…”

“I have been tracking this flower-picking thief for more than two months, but I still can’t catch this thief. In desperation, I have no choice but to come to Mr. Qianhu for help and ask the Jin Yiwei to help arrest this flower-destroying young master.”

After hearing what Magistrate Liu said, Niu Ren couldn’t help but frown.

This flower-picking thief used to commit crimes by young ladies from merchants’ wives, but this time he actually sneaked into the county magistrate’s house and plundered all the magistrate’s gold.

This is really outrageous!

As they were both in the officialdom, they were naturally very angry!

However, Niu Ren blew the tea and said slowly: “The Jin Yiwei is pursuing major and important cases. I’m afraid they won’t be able to spare the manpower to arrest flower pickers and other thieves…”

This is obviously an excuse.

It’s okay to help, but you can’t help in vain, right?

How could a veteran official like Governor Liu not understand Niu Qianhu’s true intention? He stood up, bowed his hands and said:

“Your Majesty also knows that Jin Yiwei is busy with official duties, but this flower-picking thief is highly skilled in martial arts and comes and goes without a trace. I really can’t catch this lewd thief, so I asked Jin Yiwei for help!”

After that, he waved to his guards.

A guard held a brocade box and presented it to Niu Ren’s desk, along with a copy of the case.

“This is two hundred taels of gold, which will be used as Jin Yiwei’s investigation funds. If the buster is caught, the government will allocate another one hundred taels of gold as a reward.”

“I hope Master Qianhu can help me!”

After saying that, Magistrate Liu raised his hands and bowed deeply to Niu Ren.

Naturally, the three hundred taels of gold were not paid by Magistrate Liu himself, but from the treasury. Anyway, they were handling cases for the public, so it was justified.

This case caused panic among the wealthy businessmen and gentry in Suzhou City and had a great impact. Now even the county magistrate’s daughter has suffered. If this flower-picking thief cannot be caught again, Magistrate Liu’s career will be greatly affected.

Niu Ren glanced at the brocade box that the guard presented to the desk. The brocade box was filled with fifty taels of gold ingots.

He put down the teacup in his hand, smiled slightly and said:

“Since Mr. Liu is so helpless, the Jin Yiwei will help Mr. Liu capture this flower-picking thief.”

Magistrate Liu bowed his hands and said, “Thank you Niu Qianhu! I will resign.”

Niu Ren picked up the tea cup: “Master Liu, walk slowly.”

After Magistrate Liu left, Niu Ren said to the guards: “Send General Xiao to come to the lobby.”

“yes.”

The guards took the order and left the lobby, heading to the Nine Guards Station.

After lunch.

Xiao Qiuyue summoned the nine guards to gather in the hall.

She glanced at the dozens of Jinyi guards standing below, took out a case report and said:

“Recently, a flower-picking thief appeared in Suzhou City. Several wealthy daughters have been tortured by this thief. Last night, he even sneaked into the mansion of Magistrate Lu and raped the daughter of Magistrate Lu…”

“Niu Qianhu ordered our nine departments to arrest this flower picker within a month and send him to the Suzhou Criminal Department for disposal.”

“If the flower-picking thief is not caught within one month, each person’s salary will be deducted for one month.”

Several Xiaoqi and dozens of captains couldn’t help but look at each other with ugly expressions after hearing this.

Naturally, they had all heard of this flower-picking thief, and he came and went without a trace.

Which of these rich families who were picked flowers didn’t have a few martial artists to look after their homes and courtyards?

But in the end, not even a single hair was caught from this flower-picking thief.

Let’s not talk about the martial arts of this flower-picking thief. At least his light kung fu must be very superb. How can he be so easy to catch?

Not to mention the difficulty in finding this flower-picking thief, even if we found him, it would probably be difficult to catch him.

Niu Qianhu asked the nine departments to solve the case and capture the flower picker within a month. This was an almost impossible task.

It seems that next month’s salary has been withheld.

Everyone had a grimace, but Huang Shaojie looked indifferent.

Although his father, Huang Wanwan, was not the richest man in Suzhou, his family still had more than 100,000 yuan. Huang Shaojie didn’t care about his monthly salary of a few taels.

Xiao Qiuyue looked at these sad-faced subordinates and said coldly: “I’m just catching a flower-picking thief. Look, your faces are longer than a horse’s face! If you don’t want to have your salary deducted, you should all cheer up and hunt down this flower-picking thief.” .”

Then, Xiao Qiuyue began to

Assign tasks.

The three Xiaoqi each took a dozen captains out to track down the clues that led to the destruction of the handsome man.

“You guys come with me to the Luzhi County Mansion to check out the crime scene.”

Xiao Qiuyue said to the remaining captains.

Huang Shaojie was among these captains. He was going to go out with Zhu Shi, Xiao Qi, but Xiao Qiuyue specifically asked him to stay.

It can be seen that Xiao Qiuyue has paid special attention to this new captain since Huang Shaojie caught the Japanese pirate spy a few days ago.

Xiao Qiuyue led several captains out of the Nine Halls, mounted their horses and left the Jinyiwei, and galloped all the way to the Luzhi County Mansion.

After a while, he arrived at the mansion of Magistrate Lu.

Xiao Qiuyue took out the imperial guard’s banner and was welcomed into the mansion by the housekeeper of the Lu family. After a while, the magistrate of Lu County came to greet her.

“Your Majesty, please see Mr. Xiao.”

Magistrate Lu bowed to Xiao Qiuyue. According to common sense, he should be working in the county government now, but because flower pickers sneaked into his house last night, he stayed in his house.

“Master Lu, there is no need to be polite!”

Xiao Qiuyue raised her hand, and then said: “I am here to investigate the case of the flower picking thief on the order of Niu Qianhu. Mr. Lu, please take me to the crime scene to have a look!”

“Sir, please come with me.”

Mr. Lu bowed and made an invitation gesture, then took Xiao Qiuyue to an attic in the backyard.

Huang Shaojie and several other captains also followed.

When the Jin Yiwei men came to the attic, Mr. Lu sighed and said to Xiao Qiuyue:

“My little girl lives in this wing in the attic. Who would have thought that she was defiled by this lewd thief last night!”

After saying that, his eyes couldn’t help but turn red.

When a daughter is defiled by an adulterer, this is unbearable anger and grief for any father.

What’s more, the daughter of a county magistrate was stolen by flower pickers.

A cold light flashed in Xiao Qiuyue’s eyes, and she said in a cold voice: “Don’t worry, Mr. Lu, our Jinyi Guards will definitely catch this thief and let him be tortured before handing him over to the Criminal Department.”

As a woman, she naturally hates flower pickers even more!

“Thank you, Mr. Xiao!” Magistrate Lu bowed his hands.

He believed that if Jin Yiwei came to investigate the case, he would be able to catch the flower picker. It was only a matter of time.
