Seeing him, Xue Wu's heart jumped slightly, and she walked over, "Guan Tou?" ”

Guan Yue opened his eyes, "Miss Xue, did you just come back from the field?" ”

Seeing Pei Lin next to her, her eyes were shining, and out of professional habits, she couldn't help but look at him carefully, and at the same time analyzed the origin of this person in her heart.

Xue Wan: "Yes, why is Guan Zhutou here?" He turned to Pei Lin and said, "You go in first." ”

Pei Lin glanced at Guan Yue, didn't speak, and went in.

"Miss Xue, can you take a step to speak?"

"Okay, wait a minute."

Xue Wu entered the courtyard and put down her things, came out, and took Guan Yue to a nearby grove.

Guan Yue looked at her, "This time, I'm here to thank you." ”

Xue Wu didn't know why.

"Thank you for helping me kill Qian Dazhi."

Xue Wu: "!! ”

"You don't have to be nervous, it's just my guess, I don't actually have any evidence, but I feel that you did it."

Xue Wu was expressionless: "Intuition is wrong many times. ”

Guan Yue smiled silently and did not refute.

"I'll tell you a story." He sat down casually against a tree, not caring if the ground was dirty or not.

Then he took out an object from his sleeve, which was a delicate wooden hairpin, with a delicate texture and a layer of jade pulp, as if it was often held in his hand and rubbed.

He rubbed the hairpin in his hand, "This is a hairpin I made for my sister with my own hands, and I gave it to her on the day she was married, and I also helped her insert it in her hair." She loves it and wears it every day. But one day, she suddenly disappeared, and when I found her, she was lying in a mass grave covered in bruises, holding the hairpin tightly in her hand. ”

"Did Qian Dazhi do it?"

"Not bad."

"At first, I thought about bringing Qian Dazhi to justice, but later I found out that I was too naïve, with Cai Kuo's brother-in-law to protect me, I couldn't move Qian Dazhi at all, and I was likely to trap myself in it. But Cai Kuo is a person who assassinates history, and this group of dog officials and officials protect each other, how easy is it to bring down Cai Kuo?

"I have been secretly collecting evidence of Cai Kuo's crimes, but unfortunately he is very cautious and it is difficult to find tangible evidence. But there was one thing that could definitely kill him! ”

"What?"

"A ledger he kept with Qian Dazhi recorded the details of the bribes he had received and evidence of his tribute to his superiors. The fire in the Qian family last night burned a lot of things, but the things in the treasury and account room were moved away one step ahead of schedule. That ledger is mixed in many account books, but it is written in secret language, and even if ordinary people get it, they can't understand it at all. ”

"In this way, our prefectural commander is indeed quite cautious."

"Miss Xue, I have a gut feeling that this matter has something to do with you, although I myself think it's ridiculous, after all, you didn't go to the Qian Mansion last night, and you can't take away so many belongings quietly under the heavy guard of the Qian Mansion. The only thing that is related is that your grandmother wants to dedicate you and your mother to Qian Dazhi in order to get a sum of silver.

"But you woke up early and left with your mother. And in the end, Xue Xin of the Xue family's big house was taken away, and her whereabouts have not been found until now, and her body has not been found on the Qian family's side, she seems to have disappeared out of thin air. ”

"Oh, really?" Xue Wu showed a faint doubt and surprise on her face.

"Miss Xue, do you know? The first time I saw you, I noticed that you have a kind of alien temperament, as if you live in this world like me, but you are alienated from everything outside of yourself, as if everything in this world is just an inconsequential game for you. ”

Xue Wu's heart suddenly suddenly, but she smiled on her face: "Guan Zhutou, I'm just a little peasant girl, why in your mouth, I seem to be a master of the world?" Are you okay? If not, I'm going back, and I'll have to go back to cooking. ”

Guan Yue stopped her behind her: "Miss Xue, I know you don't believe me, but this is also human nature, and no one can trust a person who has only met twice." I'm here today just to tell you that I and you are on the same page. If you have anything in the future, you can come to me at any time, although Guan is just a small head catcher, he still has a little face in Fengchi County. ”

Xue Wan tilted her head, "Okay, I'll make a note of it." ”

At this time, the atmosphere of the old Xue family was strange and silent.

Before going to find Xue Yi, Guan Yue came here first, and before in the Qian family, he learned from the servant Qian Yi, that is, the one who was pushed to be the representative of the subordinates, and went to the county commander's wife Qian to talk back to the old Xue family last night.

Qian Yi was also one of the subordinates who followed Steward Qian to Lao Xue's house last night, and he was very clear about the causes and consequences of going to Lao Xue's house.

After Guan Yue learned about this, he came to the old Xue's house in Shanghe Village and told them the news of Xue Xin's disappearance, of course, he didn't come to send them a message, but wanted to know more details.

For example, how Xue Wu escaped from Mrs. Xue and others.

After all, according to Qian Yi's statement, Mrs. Xue put the drug given to her by Steward Qian in the chicken soup, and she also watched Xue Wu and her mother drink the chicken soup, why did she wake up halfway?

Maybe this is a coincidence in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of people like Guan Yue, who have been dealing with criminals all year round, there must be something hidden here.

At first, Mrs. Xue didn't plan to cooperate at all, after all, she "sold her daughter-in-law + granddaughter", it's hard to say, at least this is a family conflict, a family matter, but at a big point, this is unauthorized human trafficking! It's going to be jailed!

But after Chen's family learned that Xue Xin was missing, her mood collapsed a little, regardless of Mrs. Xue's obstruction, she shook out all the things that their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had planned before, and she hoped that Guan Yue, the head catcher, could help find her daughter back because of her attitude so cooperative.

Guan Yue got the information he wanted, and said that he would do his best to find the person back, and then went to Xue's house, but at that time, Xue Yue and Pei Lin were still watering the wheat seedlings in the field.

On this trip to Shanghe Village, although he did not investigate anything substantial, he determined something.

That is, Xue Wu is definitely related to the fire of the Qian family and the death of Qian Dazhi.

As for what kind of law is related, he has no evidence, and he can't think of it, he can only guess that maybe the peasant girl is just a layer of disguise for Xue Wu, in fact, she has another identity and is secretly doing things for a big person?

But he won't pursue it to the end, after all, Xue Wu did what he always wanted to do but couldn't.

At the beginning of becoming a fast catcher, he also thought about serving the country and the people, but in the end, he found that if he couldn't even protect his family, those lofty ideals for the country and the people were all fart!

The government can't give them justice, so he has to ask for it himself.

As for Cai Kuo's order to solve the case within five days, let him go. Anyway, even if he didn't finish it, Cai Kuo could only dismiss him at most.

And in the past five days, he only needs to show the appearance of investigating the case.
