The night sky is like washing, the crescent moon is like a hook, and the bustling capital suddenly calms down, as if sleeping in a dream, only the night patrol husband shouts "be careful of the fire candles" at the top of his voice, breaking the silence of the night. In a house in Luoquan Hutong, Gao Yunwu woke up in the dark all of a sudden, he seemed to have a nightmare, but it was not too real, after waking up, he only felt that his body was wet, his brain was empty, as if he was very tired, but there was a strange sense of satisfaction. He lay on the bed for a while, and gradually became a little conscious, then he felt for the fire sickle, lit the candle, and did not put on his robe, poured a cup of tea, and sat down on the chair and drank it with a big gulp.

This is a man of less than forty years old, although not tall, but very strong, the muscles on his arms give people the feeling of force, the corners of his mouth are slightly bent downward, looking cold and proud, in the light of the candlelight, his originally cold face also appeared a trace of tenderness. Gao Yunwu finished drinking the water, sat on the chair again and was stunned for a while, seeing that it was still early, blew out the lights again, and got into the bed.

But after a long time, Gao Yunwu felt that he was not sleepy, he thought of the whispers that Du Qiuniang whispered in his ear in the Spring Breeze Pavilion last night, thought of Du Qiuniang's angry eyes, and thought of Du Qiuniang's delicate and slippery skin, he felt a little dry, and his throat was a little thirsty. In this kind of excitement and irritability, Gao Yunwu inadvertently thought of his purse that quickly deflated, and this feeling was replaced by another kind of irritability and restlessness, he needed silver, without silver, he couldn't go to the Chunfeng Pavilion to spend a lot of money, without silver, he couldn't go to the gambling house to have fun, without silver, he couldn't even drink the apricot blossom brew in the "Drunken Immortal Residence". Gao Yunwu feels that in life, if he can't be happy and chic, he is really a man in vain, and he thinks that he has the capital to do so, he has a flexible mind, he is bold, his kung fu is first-class, he is calm and neat, but he is unlucky, he married two daughters-in-law and children are short-lived ghosts, and he has been a deputy director for more than 20 years, and he is busy all day long, and he has to look at the face of the director Feng Yige. However, he will soon get ahead, and although he has taken the risk of this, he believes that his good fortune is coming.

Thinking about it, Gao Yunwu couldn't help but fall into a deep sleep, and he didn't know what good things he dreamed of in his dreams, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

When Gao Yunwu woke up again, there was already a rooster crowing outside the window, he turned over and got up, moved his skills in the yard, practiced a few sets of fists and feet, and saw that it was not early, so he packed up and went out to the yamen.

In the yamen for half a day, Gao Yunwu was already so annoyed that he couldn't hit the wall, Feng Yige, the old immortal guy, gathered everyone together, and talked triumphantly for a long time, talking about the excitement and spraying saliva on his face, it has been two months, Feng Yige has not come out of the ecstasy of his post, opened a "Fu Yin", closed a "My Emperor", a villain look, Gao Yunwu secretly felt sorry in his heart, while wishing Feng Yige's eighty-year-old lady to ascend to heaven as soon as possible, so that Feng Yige would hurry up. On the other hand, he was thinking about enduring it for a few more months, and when things were successful, he would definitely let Feng Yige kneel at his feet every day.

It was easy to wait for Feng Yige's chatter to end, Gao Yunwu slipped out of the side door, ready to relax and rest, he looked around, and slowly walked towards a small alley, he didn't notice that in the corner next to him, there were two pairs of eyes staring at him.

When he disappeared, Zheng Qiaoniang turned her head and whispered to Xiong Tianlei next to her: "It's him, I can recognize it clearly now, he was the one who took me to the cell to see my brother that day." Although he deliberately disguised himself that day, I remember the way he walked and the sound of his walking. ”

It turned out that Zheng Qiaoniang and Xiong Tianlei had been guarding the door of the prison department in the past few days, trying to find the person who took her to the cell that day, and the hard work paid off, and finally waited for this person yesterday, but it was close to dusk, Zheng Qiaoniang was not 100% sure, for fear of admitting her mistake, so she came to the door early in the morning and waited for Gao Yunwu to enter and exit.

Xiong Tianlei said to Zheng Qiaoniang: "I have inquired about it yesterday, and this person is Gao Yunwu, the deputy director of the Prison Division. ”

Zheng Qiaoniang whispered: "No wonder I look at Na Feng's affairs, unlike the person who took me to the cell, fortunately, Ding Pu was quick and careful, so that we guarded the door every day, and finally waited for this person." ”

Xiong Tianlei thought to himself: It turns out that the key to the secret door is in the hands of the deputy director, not in the hands of the director.

Zheng Qiaoniang looked at the sky and asked Xiong Tianlei quietly: "Ding Zhuai went out to pick up people today, when will he return?" ”

Xiong Tianlei scratched his head: "I don't know when the fourth brother will come back, I guess I should be able to come back in the afternoon." He paused for a moment and said, "The fourth brother told me that let's go to Sun's pawnshop sometime to see if there is such a thing as the gold and silver that Brother Ling said?" ”

Zheng Qiaoniang nodded and said, "Okay."

The Sun family's pawnshop was not far from here, and the two of them immediately took a step forward and walked towards the Sun family's pawnshop.

The place where the two passed through is the most prosperous place in the capital, but the two of them have no intention of paying attention to other things now, in the bustling crowd, the wind under the feet of the two people, but walking fast, Xiong Tianlei saw that Zheng Qiaoniang was a girl, but she could keep up with her footsteps, and she couldn't help but secretly admire, seeing Zheng Qiaoniang's cheeks sweating, Xiong Tianlei couldn't help but slow down, just walked a few steps, only to hear Zheng Qiaoniang's leisurely voice behind him:

"Young Master Xiong, although my brother is not the perpetrator, he is also involved in this matter, in the end, it is our Zheng family who does not live with you."

Xiong Tianlei paused, looked back at Zheng Qiaoniang with an apologetic face, knew her sincerity, and said in a muffled voice: "You have nothing to do with this matter for a long time, now I just hope that my mother is still alive......" He paused, and then said: "If there is an accident, I must find the real murderer, cut it with a thousand knives, and avenge my mother." ”

Zheng Qiaoniang said in her mouth, and she didn't delay at all: "I have been paying attention to the Luo family brothers for the past few days and nights, but as in the past, I didn't find anything abnormal. ”

Xiong Tianlei thought to himself: This girl can really endure hardships, squatting at the door of the prison during the day, and going to the dart bureau at night to investigate. Thinking of this, he glanced at Zheng Qiaoniang lightly, and found that her face seemed to be a little sharper, but her eyes were big and round.

While talking, the two had arrived at Sun's pawnshop, and this time it happened that the shopkeeper was sitting behind the counter, drinking tea leisurely. Xiong Tianlei hurriedly stepped forward and arched his hand, and asked the shopkeeper: "Lao Jia asked for an inquiry, can someone bring something to a person named Zheng Qiaoniang?" ”

The shopkeeper looked at Xiong Tianlei and Zheng Qiaoniang, frowned and thought about it, shook his head and said, "This is not true." ”

Zheng Qiaoniang couldn't help but be taken aback, in her heart, her brother said that what is there is something, she leaned forward and said to the shopkeeper: "Please think about it carefully, maybe I forgot about it in the past two days, Zheng Qiaoniang, whose nickname is Qiao'er." ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Zheng Qiaoniang, thought about it carefully, and shook his head more firmly: "It's really something that has never happened." He looked at the two of them suspiciously and said, "This is the pawnshop of the Sun family, the two of you are looking for the wrong place." ”

Xiong Tianlei hurriedly apologized to the shopkeeper, gave Zheng Qiaoniang a look, turned around and walked out of the pawnshop.

Out of the pawnshop, Zheng Qiaoniang looked depressed and said, "My brother will lie to me too." ”

Xiong Tianlei saw her like this, and couldn't help but say, "Maybe it's also a deception." ”

Zheng Qiaoniang looked up at Xiong Tianlei thoughtfully.

Seeing Zheng Qiaoniang like this, Xiong Tianlei sighed secretly in his heart, reached out and took out a silver ingot from his arms, and said, "Miss Zheng, you are alone, you can take this money." ”

Zheng Qiaoniang took two steps back as if frightened, and said, "Young Master Xiong doesn't need to be like this, I have a place to live now, and I still have some silver taels on my body." ”

Xiong Tianlei insisted: "The Beijing Inn is not cheap, you can take it." ”

Zheng Qiaoniang blurted out: "I moved out of the inn a long time ago...... her voice couldn't help but go down: "There is a familiar mother-in-law, but she is a lonely widow, she took pity on me and let me move my luggage to live." ”

Xiong Tianlei was silent, put the silver on the ground, and walked forward.

Zheng Qiaoniang looked at the silver on the ground, had mixed feelings, hesitated for a while, but still held the silver in her arms, and followed Xiong Tianlei to Ti Jian Si.
