Chapter 209: Robbery and Gangsters
Before arriving at Ermao and Pig's Trotters' residence, Ouyang Kai met Situ Jingping halfway through, who was coming out of the Xin family's perfume shop at this time.
"Ouyang, Miss Zhou Yi, where are you going?"
As soon as I went out, I saw Ouyang Kai carrying Zhou Yi on his back and walking east with another unknown man.
"Master Situ, let's go to the house of the two gangsters, do you have any inquiries here?"
Looking at the place where Situ Jingping came out, it should be a perfume shop, and Situ Jingping should be here to find out the source of the perfume.
"On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival last month, a gangster named Ermao came here to buy perfume, and he bought a lot of them, the ones on the trolley."
In order to inquire about the news of perfume, Situ Jingping specially went back to the yamen to take out the perfume and came to the shop where the Xin family sold perfumes in Yunzhou City.
"Ermao? We're going to Ermao's residence, do you want to go together? ”
This is a coincidence, Situ Jingping also inquired about Ermao's body, and the place where he was going happened was Ermao's residence.
"Let's go together, it's said that Ermao hasn't appeared for a while, let's see if something happened to him."
From the shopkeeper of the shop, Situ Jingping has learned that the gangster named Ermao has never been seen in the city since he bought the perfume, Situ Jingping felt strange, so he inquired about Ermao's residence by the way, and now he is also going to Ermao's home.
......
"Benefactor, this is Ermao's residence, and the one next to it is the pig's trotters' residence."
Ermao's residence was not far from the Xin family's perfume shop, and after walking for a short time, several people came to their destination.
Look at the surroundings, the people who live in this area. It should be quite miscellaneous, although the situation of the house looks similar, but the health situation is not optimistic.
Open the door, the situation inside is staggering, it is indeed a long time no one has lived, there should be no less moss, things are placed crookedly.
"It's not going to be robbed, is it?"
Seeing such a scene, Zhou Yi couldn't help but complain, the courtyard was indeed like being robbed by a house.
"Who would rob a thug?"
Ouyang Kai, who was carrying Zhou Yi on his back, was speechless with words written on his face, can Zhou Yi use dim sum when he speaks, which shameless robber would choose to rob a gangster?
"It's like being robbed."
Even Situ Jingping, who has been investigating the case for many years, felt that this was the scene of a robbery.
"Don't be surprised, adults, Ermao's family is usually like this, he is not a person who likes to be clean."
Seeing everyone's expressions and words, Bucktooth Dalang hurriedly explained to them.
As a gangster, he definitely won't pay too much attention to his image, and it's strange that the house can be cleaned up.
"This ......"
Hearing Bucktooth Dalang's explanation, Situ Jingping felt that his worldview should be updated, and this appearance was no different from the robbery scene he had seen.
"Yi'er, come down first."
Having already arrived at the home of the two gangsters, there was no need to walk far, Ouyang Kai put Zhou Yi off his back.
"Let's go inside!"
There was nothing to see outside, and Ouyang Kai pulled Zhou Yi to walk in front.
After opening the door, there was nothing strange inside, it was as chaotic as the outside.
"Well, nothing useful."
After checking it, Situ Jingping shook his head, he was a little disappointed that there were no useful clues like this.
"Let's go and have a look."
Ouyang Kai couldn't find any useful clues in it, so he could only go to the pig's trotter house next to him to see if he could find some clues.
"Okay, let's go."
Now the only way to do this is to go to the side and have a look, hoping to find something useful.
Pig's trotter house. Compared with Ermao's house, it is still very neat, at least it looks distinct, and everything seems to be in order.
After going in and searching, Situ Jingping and Ouyang Kai both shook their heads and retreated.
There is nothing unusual in it, and it is not easy to find the wire lock inside.
"Who are you?"
A lady came out of the next room, saw a few people standing in the courtyard of the pig's trotters, and shouted loudly in this direction.
"We came from the yamen to find pig's trotters and Ermao, does the eldest lady know where the two of them went?"
Looking at Ermao and Pig's Trotters, there should have been no one living in it for a long time, and his neighbors should know where the two of them went.
"Weren't they arrested by the Yamen? How could anyone from the Yamen still come to them? ”
The people from the yamen came to look for Ermao and pig's trotters, and the lady felt a little strange.
"Have any people from the Yamen come to arrest them before? When did it happen? ”
Seeing the eldest mother's reaction, Situ Jingping was shocked, the prison of the government and the Yunzhou yamen. There are no Ermao and pig's trotters in the big guy at all, it can't be someone pretending to be someone from the yamen who deceived them, right?
"No, no, Ermao and Pig's Trotters haven't been back for more than a month, I thought they had committed something outside and were arrested by the government."
The eldest lady hurriedly explained, she didn't dare to deceive the people of the yamen, in case she was found out, she would be in prison, and after thinking about it, she asked curiously,
"What are you looking for the two of them, they can't do anything, right?"
Ermao and Pig's Trotters are well-known gangsters in Yunzhou City, and their reputation in the neighborhood is not very good, they have not been arrested once or twice when they are outside, and it is also commonplace with the prison, and the people who mix with the two of them are regular customers of the prison.
"I haven't been back for more than a month, when did it happen? Did you come back that night of the Mid-Autumn Festival? ”
The whereabouts of Ermao and the pig's trotters are now becoming more and more confused, and for Situ Jingping, it is as if they have suddenly evaporated from the world.
"They had already come back that night, and I saw them the next morning, but they didn't come back the next night."
The eldest lady remembered this incident very clearly, and she still felt strange that she would see him at Ermao's house on the morning of the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"What time did you see them, morning or mid-afternoon?"
Now Situ Jingping can basically determine that Ermao and Pig's Trotters have had an accident, and there is a high probability that they have been killed.
"In the morning, the pig's trotters went out first, and soon after he went out, about half an hour, Ermao also went out, and I remember very well that the sun had just risen when the pig's trotters went out."
The eldest lady was very impressed by this incident, these two people who slept until three poles in the world most of the time did not get up, and they left the house early, it was really a long time to see.
"Do you know where the two of them went?"
The most important thing now is to find Ermao and the pig's trotters, if the two of them don't find it, this clue will be broken.
Situ Jingping didn't want to give up this clue just like that, he had to find them.
"I don't know about that."
The eldest lady shook her head, Ermao and Pig's Trotters are two gangsters in the city, and they will go anywhere in the city, so the eldest lady naturally can't figure out where the two of them will go.
"Then in what direction are they going, do you remember?"
The living environment here, the alleys are criss-crossed, it is impossible to know the specific path of two people, but it should be no problem to know the general direction.
"To the west, I should have entered the city, I don't know."
The eldest lady pointed in the direction of Yunzhou City, he only knew that Ermao and Pig's Trotters went west after leaving their house, and she didn't know whether they had entered the city or not.
"Does the lady remember anything unusual about them that day?"
Ermao and Pig's Trotters should have disappeared out of thin air the day after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is unknown how they disappeared, Situ Jingping hopes to find clues to the disappearance of the two of them in the stories of the neighborhood.
"Unusual places?"
A large number of heads down, recalling the performance of Ermao and pig's trotters that day,
"Except that the two of them got up earlier than usual, it felt like they were in a hurry when they went out that day, and it was not at all the same as usual."
When the eldest lady thought that Ermao and Pig's Trotters left that day, she didn't look like she was in a hurry, and she seemed to be in a hurry.
"In a hurry? Are you in a hurry to meet someone? ”
Generally, gangsters walk on the street to be the same, looking around is indispensable, even the two of the Nanmen Leopard and the Nanmen Tiger in the capital, they have not seen the appearance of walking in a hurry, Ermao and Pig's trotters must have encountered something.
"I don't know about that."
Although she is a neighbor with Ermao and Pig's Trotters, the eldest lady usually has no contact with them, and she doesn't know where Ermao and Pig's Trotters went or who they are looking for.
"Pig's trotters went to me that day and told me that Ermao helped people buy perfume the night before and earned ten taels of silver, as for Ermao, I didn't see him that day."
The bucktooth replied to Situ Jingping that Pig's Trotters had hurried to him that morning and told him what had happened the night before.
"What did he say?"
Pig's trotters should also know something, otherwise they wouldn't have hurriedly found the bucktooth man to talk about the night before yesterday.
"Pig's trotters said, Ermao should provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked, someone else gave him ten taels of silver as a deposit, let him buy a lot of perfume, and the man gave him the remaining forty taels of silver the next day, and those perfumes add up to less than thirty taels of silver, how could that person give fifty taels and run away? How can there be such a good amount of money in the world! ”
That day, Pig's Trotters found the bucktooth Dalang, just to let him think of a way to make Ermao sober up and not be confused by others.
"Where were you when he found you that day?"
After hearing Bao Ya Dalang's description, Situ Jingping was actually a little suspicious of him.
