Chapter 58: The City Lord's Trick (8)
Morchison, who was still eating lunch, heard Massin's request to see him, and he didn't even eat, and hurried over.
"Captain Ma asks to see him at this time, it seems that things are in sight." Mochison, who had just stepped into the living room with one foot, couldn't wait to say.
Seeing that Mochison was coming, Ma Xin hurriedly knelt down and saluted, and said, "My subordinates are fortunate to have found the strong man." ”
"Good, good, good." Mochison was so excited that he said three good words in a row, and helped Ma Xin up, "Captain Ma is really powerful, where is the strong man now?" ”
"Lord Liao praised." Massin was modest on the surface, but inwardly he sneered, after last night's events, Massin had become disappointed in Murchison.
"The subordinate met the strong man in the restaurant, the strong man bought a 'drunken chicken' and left, the subordinate did not dare to delay, and immediately reported to the city lord, and the subordinate also sent someone to follow the strong man." Ma Xin said respectfully.
Mochison pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you sure you haven't been found?" ”
"Rest assured, Lord of the City, the subordinates have been fully disguised, and they will be replaced every time they track a certain distance, and the subordinates dare to guarantee that they will not be discovered." Massin said confidently.
"Very good, since Captain Ma is so confident, then the city lord will wait for good news." Mochison sat down in his chair and began to play with the ring in his hand.
"My subordinates believe that it won't be long before my subordinates will come back." Although Ma Xin said yes, but now that he thinks that the other party is a powerhouse in the Xuan Realm, he starts to beat the drum in his heart, but at this point, there is no room to turn back, only wait.
Both of them sat quietly in their chairs with calm faces and did not speak, but their thoughts were different.
The time of a stick of incense had passed, and no one had returned to report the news, and Ma Xin writhed a little uneasily.
Mochison glanced at Massin and said, "Captain Ma, is there a problem with the chair?" Why don't you ask someone to help you change one? ”
"Thank you for your kindness, I still don't want it, my subordinates are just a little hot." Massin immediately sat up straight and stopped writhing.
The time for another cup of tea passed, and just when Massin was about to sit still, someone finally came.
Looking at the people running over, Ma Xin stood up and said, "Lord City, the people under him are back. ”
"I've seen the city lord, I've seen the captain of the horse." The guards who ran in were still panting for breath.
"How's it going?" Before the guard could catch his breath, Ma Xin asked impatiently.
The guard first gasped for breath and said: "The subordinates and others followed the strong man all the way, and found that the strong man seemed to really come out to purchase, and he stopped and bought a lot of things all the way, and finally the strong man entered a courtyard and did not come out, and the subordinates guessed that it should be the place where they stayed, leaving a few people to continue to guard, and the subordinates did not dare to delay all the way back to report the news." ”
"Lord of the Castle." Massin turned to look at Mockison.
Mockison walked up to the guard, helped him up, and asked, "Where do they live?" ”
"The west of the city turned out to be Zhao Yongfu's house." The guard said respectfully.
"No wonder I couldn't find them for so long, I used to live in Zhao Yongfu's house." Ma Xin suddenly said.
Zhao Yongfu was originally a large family in Lin Yuancheng, living by raising pigs, because Zhao Yongfu's pigs eat special fragrance, so they basically monopolized the pork market in Lin Yuancheng, but a few years ago, there was a sudden plague, and the family all died, and the people in the city were afraid of being infected, and the people around them moved away, and few people went to that place.
At this point, the people of Lin Yuancheng knew that when Ma Xin was searching, his subordinates were afraid of infection, so they didn't dare to go, so they didn't find out where they were going until today.
"Very good, you immediately go back to me and continue to keep an eye on it, you must not be discovered, the brothers have worked hard these days, before leaving, you go to the housekeeper to receive some reward money, and give the brothers a point." Mochison smiled kindly as he spoke.
"My subordinates thank the city lord for the reward on behalf of my brothers." Hearing that there was money to take, the guard ran out happily.
"Hmph, I will use some small favors to win people's hearts." Massin was dismissive of Mochison's approach.
When the guards walked out, Mochisen walked and closed the door, then looked at Massin and said, "Massin, I really didn't mistake you, I knew you could definitely find them." ”
Massin looked at Murchison without speaking.
Mo Qisen picked up a cup of tea, handed it to Ma Xin, and said: "Ma Xin, you also know that Yuan'er is still in a coma and bed again, but the murderer has not been found, so last night the city lord was a little excited, I hope that last night's incident, Ma Xin, you don't take it to heart, now the city lord uses tea instead of wine to make amends to you." ”
"The city lord is serious, how dare his subordinates go to their hearts, the subordinates did not find the murderer, it is a dereliction of duty of the subordinates, how the city lord punishes his subordinates is due, plus the lives of the subordinates were saved by the city lord, even if the city lord let me kill myself on the spot, the subordinates did not complain." Instead of taking the tea from Mochison, Massin knelt down.
Mochisen put the tea on the table, helped Ma Xin up, and said, "Ma Xin, hurry up, you have made the city lord even more guilty like this." ”
Ma Xin stood up and said: "The city lord doesn't have to be like this, doing things for the city lord is what his subordinates should do, since their whereabouts have been found, there is still one matter here for the subordinates, it seems that it is necessary to report to the city lord." ”
"What's the matter?" Mochison raised his hand and motioned for Massin to speak.
"Lord of the city, my subordinates also investigated that the strong man has a habit, that is, he likes to eat 'drunken chicken' very much, and almost every time he goes on the street, he will pack and take one with him." Massin paused before continuing: "My subordinates think that this may be our chance. ”
"Haha, haha, hahahaha......"
Hearing this, Mochison threw his head back and laughed.
"Lord of the city, what are you?" Marsin asked, confused.
"Marsin, you deserve to be the one who has been with me for so long." Mockison happily patted Marsin a few times, "They all thought of it with me." ”
The corners of Ma Xin's mouth pulled unconsciously, this was a praise for Ma Xin at first sound, but in fact, after thinking about it carefully, he still praised him Mo Qisen's own.
"God-given opportunity, the powerhouses of the Xuan Realm are still so greedy, this is really their own death." Mochison seemed to have seen the killer when he was arrested, "Massin, you're doing a great job. Originally, the city lord had planned to use poison from the beginning, and he had been thinking about how to do it without knowing it, so you gave the city lord such good news. ”
"Lord of the city, you are really wise." Ma Xin slapped a Mochisen's ass at the right time, "However, Lord City, my subordinates think that the murderer is a powerhouse in the Xuan Realm, and ordinary poisons are easy for them to discover, and even if the murderer makes a move, it may not have much effect." ”
