Chapter 210: Windfall

"I'm at the king carpenter in the east of the city, and ask him to get me a stall, and I will be in the carpenter shop of the king all day that day."

Luoya Dalang's home is actually in Yunzhou City, and his father still left him some family funds, although he has almost been defeated.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, he was rescued by Ouyang Kai from the man in black, and made him determined to completely change his mind and be a good man, so he took out some silver and went to Carpenter Wang, and asked Carpenter Wang to help him make a stall selling baked cakes, and from then on, he returned to his father's old business of selling baked cakes.

"Well, I'll ask the officers and soldiers guarding the city, they should know if Ermao has entered the city."

Before, bucktooth Lang, Ermao, pig's trotters, rooster. The others are the most famous gangsters in Yunzhou City, although they have not changed to the point of hearing about it, but they are one of the best snakes in Yunzhou City.

The officers and soldiers of the government and the commander should be able to remember them, and they will know if Ermao entered Yunzhou City that day.

After finishing speaking, Ouyang Kai picked up Zhou Yi and walked in the direction of Yunzhou City.

Bucktooth Lang thought about it and didn't follow, it was obvious that the relationship between the benefactor and that girl was not ordinary, and what he would do if he got together would only delay other people's affairs.

"You called Ouyang a benefactor, did he ever save you?"

Situ Jingping saw that the bucktooth man wanted to do and stopped, and asked him.

"Yes, sir."

In front of Situ Jingping, Bucktooth Dalang looked a little restrained, after all, he used to be a gangster who was used to petty theft, but Situ Jingping was the master in the yamen.

"Can you tell me what's going on?"

Speaking of gangsters, Situ Jingping only thought of the Diao people who molested the women of good families on the street, and he couldn't imagine that such a decent person like Ouyang Kai would choose to save the "moths" among these people.

"Last month in the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qin Pang gave us some silver, let us go to clean up a person, the person to clean up is the benefactor, we can't beat him, but he cleaned up, that night when I was about to go home, I was intercepted by two black-clothed people on the bank of the Yanbo River, I couldn't even take a move from the two blacks, just at the last moment, the benefactor fell from the sky and helped me stop the two blacks, so that I could escape."

At that time, although Ouyang Kai was also dressed in night clothes, he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but the scabbard of the sword and the bucktooth Dalang remembered very clearly, when Ouyang Kai beat him in front of the yamen before, he used the scabbard.

The key is that Ouyang Kai shook the scabbard in front of him before hitting him, which is the main reason why he can remember the scabbard.

The scabbard of the Qinghong Sword in Ouyang Kai's hand is indeed more recognizable, and the patterns on it are relatively rare, and Situ Jingping can also recognize its difference.

"Well, I see."

Situ Jingping did not suspect that Ouyang Kai had also told him so before, that the two black-clothed men that night should be the Panlong Sect Master and one of the twelve guards of the Panlong Sect.

......

Situ Jingping was also around Ermao and Pig's Trotter House to ask the neighbors about the news of the two of them.

At the east gate of Yunzhou City not far away, Ouyang Kai took out his token and showed it to the officers and soldiers, and began to ask them questions.

"Have you seen this person?"

Ouyang Kai took out the portrait and showed the mysterious vendor he had drawn to several officers and soldiers guarding the city gate.

"I seem to have some impressions, can you give me more hints?"

Just like that, several officers and soldiers felt that the people on the paper were still quite familiar, but they wanted them. Say it all at once. When and where have you seen it? It's still a bit difficult.

Although Ouyang Kai is not a general in the army, the information displayed on the token is that Ouyang Kai is a fourth-grade Qincha, which is higher than the grade of their general, if he has any problems, it is better to take the initiative to cooperate well.

"On or before the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival last month, you could see such people entering the city?"

Ouyang Kai didn't know when the vendor entered the city, it was possible that he had been ambushed in the city for several days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he only committed the crime on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Mid-Autumn Festival Evening...... It seems that no such people entered the city. ”

After thinking about it, the officer and soldier in the lead told Ouyang Kai that there were too many people entering and leaving the city gate that night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he couldn't remember whether there was such a person entering and leaving the city gate.

"The man with a crooked face...... My lord, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, we seem to have seen this person. ”

The other guy scratched his head, the crooked face on the painting was so obvious that he remembered that he seemed to have seen this person after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"When?"

Ouyang Kai didn't expect such a harvest to be made here by the officers and soldiers guarding the city, he asked them this question, just to try his luck, after all, there are so many people in and out of the city gate, it is still very difficult to remember such a person.

"On the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he appeared a few times, and he hasn't seen him since."

The features of the person with the crooked face were too obvious, and they also noticed it unintentionally, and they paid attention to it twice.

"The last time I saw him, where did he go?"

The whereabouts of this mysterious peddler have always been the news that Ouyang Kai and Situ Jingping want to know the most.

"We went in the direction where the adults came, and we don't know anything else."

The last time they saw the man with the crooked face was the last time the crooked face went out of the city, and it is not known whether he entered and exited the city gate from other places.

"Well, on the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival last month, were you on duty here at the city gate?"

That's all the officers and soldiers know about the mysterious peddler, and then there's the question of Ermao and pig's trotters.

What Ouyang Kai was looking for was the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival. Several officers and soldiers on duty at the east gate of Yunzhou City.

"My lord, it's us."

"Do you know all those gangsters in Yunzhou City?"

If they don't recognize Ermao and pig's trotters, then the next questions will be asked in vain.

"What the adults are talking about is that during this time, the big man who changed his career to sell baked cakes, and Ermao, pig's trotters, and roosters? If it were them, a few of us would have recognized them, and if it had been some other ruffians, some of them we would recognize, and some of them would not have remembered. ”

They are only responsible for guarding the city gates, and there must be thousands of people they see every day, if not tens of thousands, but most of them are just familiar, and it is still difficult to remember.

"I'm going to ask about Ermao and pig's trotters."

Since they can name Ermao and Pig's Trotters themselves, Ouyang Kai doesn't have to worry about not being able to ask the answer he wants.

"My lord, I am sure we know everything."

The matter of Ermao and pig's trotters is not a secret that cannot be told.

"On the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, did Ermao and pig's trotters enter the city?"

In fact, whether the pig's trotters have entered the city or not, Ouyang Kai doesn't have to doubt it, Bucktooth Lang will definitely not lie to him, he can be sure of this, Bucktooth Lang didn't mean to evade when he spoke just now.

"My lord, the pig's trotters entered the city not long after the sun rose that morning, and went out again in less than an hour, and I have no impression of whether Ermao went in or not."

The leading officer and soldier replied to Ouyang Kai, he remembered that the pig's trotters had entered the city that day, and he didn't seem to have any impression of Ermao, worried that he was negligent and didn't notice it, and he didn't dare to be sure.

"My lord, Ermao hasn't entered through our East City Gate since the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Another officer and soldier added that he remembered very well that day, Ermao had not entered Yunzhou City,

After they returned to the barracks, they often talked about what happened at the city gate, and every day the officers and soldiers guarding the east city gate said that they had not seen Ermao.

"After the pig's trotter left Yunzhou City that time, we never saw him again."

Another officer and soldier added to Ouyang Kai that they usually pay more attention to these gangsters, and they have never seen pig's trotters since the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"Well, have you found anything else?"

Compared with the neighbor's eldest mother, the officers and soldiers guarding the city will be relatively more meticulous, and there may be any unexpected discoveries.

"Well, my lord, when the pig's trotter left the city gate, he looked very nervous, and we wanted to go up and interrogate him, but he ran away."

When the pig's trotters were out of the city, several of them noticed that the situation didn't seem to be right, and called out to him, but they didn't get a response from him, and the pig's trotters ran away.

"By the way, the crooked-faced man seems to have been following the pig's trotters all along."

Except for the crooked face when the pig's trotters entered the city, he didn't follow him, and when he went out of the city, the crooked face followed the pig's trotters not far away, and he didn't feel anything before, until now Ouyang Kai asked about the crooked face and the pig's trotters one after another, and they connected the two people.

"Huh? Follow the trotters? ”

Ouyang Kai can now be sure that Ermao and Pig's Trotters have basically been killed, and the murderer can basically be determined that it is the mysterious peddler again.

......

After ending the conversation with the officers and soldiers defending the city, Ouyang Kai and Zhou Yi returned to Ermao and Pig's Trotters' house.

Situ Jingping was still asking the neighbors questions in the next room, but he didn't come up and stayed where he was.

Zhou Yi is obviously tired, and it is estimated that she has not tried to walk for so long since she followed her.

"Master, can you go and see with Master Situ if there is anything you can help with?"

Zhou Yi could see that his master stayed in place in order to accompany him.

She doesn't want to be the master's fetters herself, the master has to cooperate with Master Situ to investigate the case, from Dangzhou to Zhaozhou, when she is with Qianqian, she is always after returning home at night, but now it is daytime, and the master still has to investigate the case, she is not as cheeky as before relying on the master.

"No, Lord Situ can solve it himself, I'll stay here."

Ouyang Kai could see the apologies on Zhou Yi's face, but he didn't mean to go up to join in the fun, he just asked for a word, and there was nothing to help.

Soon, Situ Jingping came out of the courtyard next door, and after seeing Ouyang Kai, he asked,

"Ouyang, did you ask for any news?"
