"How are you?"

"Brother Lin, what happened to you just now?"

"It's not a good ...... Your Lord Archon......"

As soon as Lin Shan remembered what Li Gai had just discussed with him, his heart became irritable again, but for Jiang Chao, there was no need for him to know about this matter, so he could only retract it halfway through the conversation.

With a sigh of relief, Lin Shan slowly spoke again: "At this hour, you didn't have lunch with Mo Ye and the others, but you came here, what's the matter?" ”

"Brother Lin, I did come to look for you, I met Master Li at the intersection just now, and he pointed me to this side......" gradually realized that the source of Lin Shan's annoyance came from Li Gai, although he didn't know what this was, but Lin Shan's rare temper outburst still made him naturally close the topic.

"I was too drunk last night, and in the morning Qu Bo asked me to lie down more, but when it was almost noon, many people suddenly came to the house." Jiang Chao hesitated for a moment when he said this, and apology gradually appeared in his eyes, "When I got up, I found that Mo Ye was gone." ”

"Gone?" Lin Shan was surprised.

Jiang Chao thought about it for a while and immediately explained: "There is a water tank on the wall of the backyard that is upside down, and it should be like this to climb up." ”

Lin Shan's expression slowed slightly: "It should be that she went out over the wall by herself, this kid ......" The words suddenly stopped at this point, he remembered what Li Gai had just said, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

Seeing this, Jiang Chao thought about what the mission he had been arranged by Li Gai to Lin Shan's side, and his heart became more and more worried. Although Lin Shan's actions in the past few days don't have to be reported to him everywhere, he didn't deliberately hide anything, so he has a little understanding of the situation Lin Shan is facing now, if something happens to Mo Ye because of his negligence at this time, he will definitely be unable to escape the blame.

However, just as he was about to plead guilty, he heard Lin Shan ask, "Do you know how long she has been out?" ”

Although Jiang Chao said just now that he had just gotten up and found that Mo Ye was gone. But since he had seen the ability of another subordinate cultivated by Li Gai under the Wolf's Tooth City Wall that day, Lin Shan felt that Jiang Chao, as one of Li Gai's subordinates who trusted and reused, should not just be able to judge things on the visible surface.

Jiang Chao silently recalled and estimated in his heart, and quickly replied: "When I was woken up, it was about three o'clock, and it looked like she had been gone for half an hour. ”

Lin Shan asked again, "How many places have you found nearby?" ”

Jiang Chao hesitated for a moment and replied: "I have found ...... in the range of the surrounding street."

He was only halfway through his words, and he heard Lin Shan say quickly: "I went to find so many places in half an hour, it's hard for you." ”

At this time, Lin Shan already knew the reason why Jiang Chao was looking for him, and it was possible that he wanted to secondment the city patrol team. Li Gai was also with him just now. There are only a few people who can call the city patrol team, and the only people who know Mo Ye's situation at the moment are the two of them who are nearby. It seems that Jiang Chao is a little too anxious. If the patrol team was used for this matter, it would be inappropriate.

After thinking about it for a while, he smiled slightly and said, "It's only been half an hour, and a child can't go far." Let's take a look. ”

"But......" Jiang Chao's tone was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to remind Lin Shan to borrow the power of Li Gai's subordinates, "Where will she go?" ”

"It's the kids who are playful." Lin Shan's tone was calm, "If you're not nearby, you might be going to a shopping street." ”

"Brother Lin." Jiang Chao groaned and said, "I think we should look for them separately, there are two commercial districts in Kyoto. ”

"Not necessarily." Lin Shan shook his head. "You've only been acquainted with Mo Ye for a few days, and it's hard for you to recognize her back in crowded places, and I'm still a little new to Kyoto. This is not as good as you, so let's look for it together. ”

Jiang Chao suddenly understood, did not speak, just nodded. At Lin Shan's signal, he quickened his pace and went hand in hand. Easy to find.

After passing through a quiet street that zigzags between the houses, I am about to enter another lively shopping street. Lin Shan suddenly tilted his head and asked, "Why are there so many people in the house all of a sudden?" ”

"Look at their clothes and voices, they are all residents of the city and shopkeepers, saying that they are here to thank you for bringing down Wandefu, except for one harm." Jiang Chao also felt strange about this. But after he was woken up by the noise outside the house, he was in a hurry to find Mo Ye, and his understanding of the intentions of those people was only limited to a few observations.

Lin Shan just smiled silently when he heard this, and there was no temperature between his eyebrows, so he didn't say anything more.

……

Under the guidance of Shi Yi, Mo Ye walked slowly through a street, and his stomach suddenly growled. She looked up at the sky and realized that it was time for lunch, but looking at Shi Yi's appearance, although she was not walking fast, she had no intention of stopping, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious because of hunger.

Just as she was looking around, trying to find a steamed bun shop in the beautiful, crowded but inedible shops on the street, a familiar figure fell into her eyes.

After she took a few more glances and made sure that she was not mistaken, she hurriedly pulled Shi Yi, who was walking one step ahead, and said urgently: "Brother Xiaoyi, look over there, they are the two girls who fell into the Wei River last time." ”

"Huh?" Shi Yi stood still, looked in the direction Mo Ye pointed, and said after a while: "You mean the white-faced young man who has the money bag exposed outside his shirt and is being touched by a person with a greasy face?" ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Mo Ye hurriedly looked back and took a closer look, only then did she notice the sloppy thief described in Shi Yi's second half of the sentence, and after being slightly stunned, she lost her voice and said, "Then shout to catch the thief!" ”

"Ugh." Shi Yi sighed softly, still indifferent, just

said lightly: "I really live in the palace...... What a fool! ”

The fool Shi Yi said was the woman he saved in Weihe a few days ago, that is, Princess Xinzhu. She will be pickpocketed, in addition to being used to being served by others because she has lived in the palace for a long time, and has less basic precautions against others, but also because she did not bring an entourage when she traveled in micro-clothes today.

In fact, it can't be said that she didn't bring any entourage, but she was accompanied by a girl who was a few years younger than her, of course, it was Ye Nuonuo, who was born in the imperial doctor's family, but the little girl was intoxicated with a bunch of smooth-looking bottles and cans at this time, how could she still have extra eyes to take care of whether there were pickpockets around Xinzhu.

Shi Yi saw that Mo Ye was about to leave, so he stretched out his hand to hold her again, and said urgently: "Don't go, last time I saved her in the water, it's okay to be careful yourself, this time it's different, what if that thief knows martial arts?" We won't, let's just let them ruin the disaster! ”

Mo Ye hesitated, although there was still a struggle in his eyes, but in the end he agreed with Shi Yi's approach, but his attention could not be immediately withdrawn for a while.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and Xinzhu, who was not as obsessed with pottery as Ye Nuonuo, finally noticed when the brocade bag was about to leave in her arms, but the first thing she saw was not the brocade bag, but a dirty hand that was slowly removing from her waist while holding the money bag.

"Ahh Catch the thief! ”

Ye Nono's attention finally withdrew from the pile of bottles and cans, and she glanced back at Xinzhu, who was holding a bottle in her hand and slammed it at the thief.

The thief had already succeeded, and he was suddenly frightened by Xinzhu's implied royal momentum, and he didn't dare to let the thief stay longer in the city, so he hurriedly pushed Xinzhu and ran away, not even caring about Ye Nuonuo's bottle.

Xinzhu was pushed by the thief, but fortunately was held up by Ye Nuonuo, who had just stood up. Before Xinzhu could stand firmly, he wanted to chase him out again, but was pulled by Ye Nuonuo.

Just a few steps away, Shi Yi pointed to Ye Nuonuo, who was whispering to Xinzhu, and said to Mo Ye: "Look at you, children who are younger than you know more than you, but you are as stupid as the princess who is grounded in the palace." ”

Mo Ye looked at Xinzhu, who was gradually calming down, and it was not difficult to guess that Ye Nuonuo's words of advice to her should be similar to what Shi Yi said to herself. But she was still unconvinced by Shi Yi's evaluation, and bluntly refuted: "But, when you see a thief stealing, shouldn't you stop it?" If we don't start curbing the small evils, wouldn't it be rampant and gradually causing thieves to run the world? ”

"It's a bit of an exaggeration for you to say this, thieves who commit crimes will naturally be dealt with by the government, and the officials will maintain the law of law and order." Shi Yimian showed a hint of helplessness, "As for these little thieves...... Under any system, there will be fish that slip through the net, and the people must cooperate with the yamen to promote good and eliminate evil, and they must also do what they can. ”

Shi Yi's words were not unreasonable, and Mo Ye also understood part of it, but she thought of another place, so she couldn't help but refute again: "If you don't make a move, how do you know that we are powerless?" ”

"We know very well that we don't know how to do martial arts, but we don't know if that sloppy thief can do martial arts, it's just that if you fight your body, he is an adult and we are children......" Shi Yi suddenly stopped when he said this, and after staring at Mo Ye for a while, he spread his hands and said: "Maybe these are not the reasons, the reason is you, don't forget why we came out today." ”

Mo Ye choked for a moment.

Then she turned her gaze to the side, as if she was unconvinced by the failure of the argument, and it seemed that she was just trying to hide the complicated and unspeakable feelings in her eyes.

At this time, you should indeed be cautious at all times, and you should turn out of the house to avoid trouble, so why do you have to take trouble yourself? Her Royal Highness the princess should not be short of that bit of silver, and destroying wealth and eliminating disasters should be the most reasonable arrangement for both parties.

However, she could think so in her heart, but she still felt that there was always something strange in her heart when she watched the thief slip away from her.

And just when Mo Ye was silent, Shi Yi stopped talking, and Xin Zhu and Ye Nuonuo on the opposite side were also calm and speechless, a voice suddenly rose high in the crowd:

"Who shouted to catch the thief?!" ……

ps: I looked it up, an hour is divided into four quarters of an hour, so a quarter of an hour is half an hour.
