Yang Tashan said: "This woman has had an induction operation, which means that the fetus has been preliminarily formed, and it has been at least five months. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info That is, we need to find the deceased, a pregnant woman who is more than five months pregnant! ”

"Great!" Chengzi waved his hand and couldn't help but praise: "If you're not bragging, then this clue is so important to us!" A peasant woman, about 23 years old, and more than five months pregnant, the scope of finding the source of the corpse has narrowed down a lot. Now that you have a portrait, it's even more convenient, you can restore the portrait of the corpse, it's amazing! ”

Luo Yi, the leader of the group, was silent and listened with interest, and said at this moment: "This corpse is rotten like that, and Yang Zhutou can still restore its original appearance, which is indeed very powerful!" ”

Yang Tashan smiled confidently: "Don't say it's just swollen and not rotten, most of the muscles are still there, even if it's all rotten, there is only one skeleton left, I can restore him." ”

Several catchers were very surprised, and mixed with more disbelief, after all, this is just Yang Tashan's words, they have not seen it, of course they don't believe it.

Yang Tashan didn't bother to distinguish it, originally he wanted to talk about the strange chickens, ducks and fish in the peasant woman's stomach, but after hearing this, he was afraid that he would scare them when he said it, and it would be even more difficult for people to believe it, so he didn't bother to say: "Okay, Cheng Hunting Head, then let's go and find out the source of the corpse." ”

Ma Liang, the leader of the second group, had a fat head and big ears, and said with a smile: "Brother Yang, don't worry, no matter how anxious you are, you have to eat, it's past noon, aren't you hungry?" We didn't eat either, and Cheng Zhutou said that he would wait for you to eat together. ”

Yang Tashan had been conducting an autopsy in the mortuary just now, only to find that it was already afternoon, and his stomach was already growling.

Although the Han Governor did not have a fixed limit for this case, they did not dare to relax, Cheng Ziqin said: "Everyone has worked hard today, I have a treat, let's go to the restaurant opposite the yamen to have a meal, and we will continue to investigate the case." ”

The four of them applauded in unison. Cheng Ziqin first called the arrester on duty, told him about the deceased found by Yang Tashan just now, and asked him to notify him, and continue to find the source of the corpse according to this situation. Then he called the yamen painter and asked him to draw a few more pictures to facilitate the search for the source of the corpse.

Subsequently, Cheng Ziqin and other five people came to the "Pengju Restaurant" opposite the Yamen.

As soon as Yang Tashan and the others entered the restaurant, the shopkeeper saw that several prefect yamen catchers and catchers were coming, and they hurriedly greeted them with a smile, and shouted loudly while inviting them in: "Shopkeeper!" Cheng Catcher Tou and several of their officials are here! ”

An old man with a goatee hurriedly came out of the back hall and waved Cheng Ziqin and said, "It turned out to be Cheng Zhutou and all the officials, please go upstairs, please sit upstairs." As the shopkeeper spoke, he glanced at Yang Tashan a few times, looking quite embarrassed.

Yang Tashan's stomach was funny, this shopkeeper looked at himself so sideways, not because he was handsome, nor because he looked weird, but because of the indescribable smell of corpses on his body.

Cheng Ziqin shook a folding fan and walked upstairs first, followed by Yang Tashan and the other four.

Upstairs, the goatee shopkeeper hurriedly let them go to an Accord facing the street.

The breeze slowly blew in through the window, and it was very pleasant in this hot summer. Cheng Ziqin was seated in the first seat, Yang Tashan was accompanied, and the other three were also seated.

Cheng Ziqin said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper Hu, come here, I'll introduce you to a brother." ”

The goatee shopkeeper surnamed Hu hurriedly came up, looking at Cheng Ziqin with a smiling face.

Cheng Ziqin folded the fan and pointed at Yang Tashan: "This is the deputy head catcher of our prefect's yamen, surnamed Yang Tashan, very capable." ”

The shopkeeper Hu hurriedly bowed and saluted: "The villain Hu Jiu is the shopkeeper of this Pengju Restaurant, and I will ask Yang Zhutou to take care of him in the future." ”

Yang Tashan returned the salute: "It's easy to say!" ”

Cheng Ziqin smiled at Yang Tashan: "This shopkeeper Hu knows how to treat people very well, and he is also a good friend, you will know it after a long time." The prefect also often entertains guests here. In the future, if there is any wine banquet or the like to entertain in the brother's yamen or at home, it is good to come to him, and when money is tight, you can hang up the account. ”

Yang Tashan now understood that this "Pengju Restaurant" turned out to be a related household of the prefect's yamen and a designated restaurant. It's also convenient.

Cheng Ziqin said to the shopkeeper Hu: "Good wine and good meat, just come up!" Our Yang Zhutou has recently taken office, and we haven't celebrated it yet. ”

Shopkeeper Hu smiled and said, "Okay! Please rest assured, the small one will be arranged immediately, today's meal is a little old man's treat, to celebrate Yang Zhutou's promotion! ”

Yang Tashan hurriedly said: "That's not possible, you open a store to do business, I will be promoted to a small deputy catcher, if you also want to treat yourself, then you have to lose your old book!" ”

The shopkeeper Hu said with a smile: "Yang Zhutou, you can see the outside, you are new to the city, you don't know the surname of Xiao Lao'er, they know it, I had better make friends, this meal is going to be treated by Xiao Lao'er anyway, you are welcome." In the future, there will be more places for the little old man to ask for your old age. ”

Before Yang Tashan could say more, Cheng Ziqin folded his fan and gently slapped Yang Tashan's arm: "Brother Yang, it's rare for the shopkeeper Hu to have some kindness, so it's better to be respectful." The three team leaders of the Thin Monkey also echoed the voice. Yang Tashan had no choice but to thank him.

Hu shopkeeper smiled and went downstairs to arrange a banquet, and the thin monkey said to Yang Tashan: "Yang catching heads, this celebration wine is a rule, in the future, all the shopkeeper's filial piety, you will laugh, because there are some rules, we should catch fast is already very hard and hard, a month is five or six hundred copper coins, if you really want to be upright with two sleeves, then you have to die of poverty if you are not tired to death." ”

Luo Yi said: "Yes, Yang Zhutou, they spent hundreds of dollars to invite you, but it was not in vain, how can you take care of him in the future, and he will make up for it more." ”

Yang Tashan said: "We catch the thieves quickly, how can we take care of them to open a store?" ”

Cheng Ziqin and the other four all laughed, Ma Liang took a sip of a cup of tea, and said: "Yang Zhutou, it seems that you don't know much about our fast catch, the position of fast catcher is nominally limited to arresting thieves, but this power can be big or small, it depends on how you use it." In the past dynasties, there are many names of the rules for this official to catch fast, but it is not set by us, take this restaurant as an example, the name of the Eight Classics is taxes, which is for us to collect, just this point, a little tighter and a little looser, a little earlier and a little later, that is enough for them to eat......"

The thin monkey also smiled: "Yes, we can't make too big a decision about this tax, but there are many donations and rules of money in various names, for example, there are diners in the restaurant who are not satisfied with the food, quarrel and even fight, which side is reasonable, but we have the final say......

Luo Yi also interjected: "This is nothing, this restaurant is most afraid of people looking for trouble, not to mention anything else, let's send brothers to his restaurant to inspect here and there, this is not right, that is not right, he will not do this business, so, this Qingyang Mansion restaurant and restaurant, it is inevitable to catch us fast class room every month......"

Yang Tashan thought to himself, this entire underworld collects protection money. But it's no wonder that there is so little money to catch fast, and it is attributed to the untouchables, and they don't collect these messy money, if you want status or status, you have no money, who do you let do this fast catch?

The thin monkey said: "Compared with other prefectures and counties, we are very upright to catch the head, we eat and drink in this Pengju restaurant every month, and there are the brothers who catch the fast from the top to the bottom, the yamen is here to usher in the wine banquet sent to the place, these bills are sent to the class room every month, and the head of the catcher is never in arrears or deducted, and the monthly money paid from the restaurant is paid in full according to the order, and it is replaced by other head catchers, and there is no door!" ”

Cheng Ziqin shook the folding fan lightly and smiled slightly: "It's not easy for people to do business." Okay, let's not talk about these now, Brother Yang will slowly understand it in the future. In a word, let's do it quickly, if someone gives it to you, you will take it, and if you give it to you, you will receive it, as long as you don't rob and rob, extort or act with a clear conscience. If you encounter something about these businesses or sufferers, take care of them wholeheartedly, and don't lose others. ”

Yang Tashan and the others hugged their fists and said: "Remember to teach to catch heads!" ”

Cheng Ziqin smiled: "It's so sour! In the future, don't become a head catcher, our brothers don't have to be so polite, just call me Ziqin in the future. If you don't, you can just call me sister. ”

"Sister? Hehe, are you older than me? Yang Tashan said with a grinning face.

"I am the tenth birthday of the twelfth month of the ninth year of Yongle, what about you?" Cheng Ziqin said generously.

"Me? I am...... I am...... Hehe, a few days younger than you. Yang Tashan couldn't remember when he was born, although the two were of the same age on the outside, he didn't know whether it was big or small, so he just snorted and didn't bother to fight him.

"It's a big day, what's the matter? Don't want to call? I'm not uncommon! ”

"Just call it, who called you a few days old, I admit it." Yang Tashan stood up, bowed and said, "The younger brother has seen Sister Cheng. ”

"That's pretty much it, sit down." Cheng Ziqin said with a very proud look.

At this time, the wine and food have come up one after another. Another pot of good old flower carvings. All five of them poured their glasses. Cheng Ziqin took the wine glass and said: "Come, congratulations to our Yang Zhutou, no, Brother Tashan is rising, cheers!" ”

The five of them raised their wine glasses, and after Yang Tashan thanked them, they all did it together.

Yang Tashan wiped his mouth and said to Cheng Ziqin: "I can't see it, Sister Cheng is quite refreshing when she drinks!" ”

The other three all gave a thumbs up and said, "Yes, Cheng Tou drinks boldly, and the heroine among the women." ”

Cheng Ziqin said: "Okay, don't talk about those useless things, fatty, you go and close the door, we should talk about the case." ”

Ma Liang agreed, turned around and closed the door of the private room. Only then did Yang Tashan know that Ma Liang, the leader of the second group of the fat and fat, was nicknamed Fatty.
