Twenty-fourth: Report to the officer

Hua Xiangrong's mind went blank for a moment.

She couldn't hear the sound of the wind and horses' hooves, and she didn't feel much pain when the cold wind blew on her face in the morning.

"If you don't, don't push yourself." Xiao Zirang chuckled.

The warm breath of his voice skipped over Hua Xiangrong's cheeks, burning her ears red.

There is a special fragrance on him, which Hua Xiangrong has never smelled, and she doesn't know much about incense, but she likes it inexplicably.

Xiao Zirang didn't look at her, he only concentrated on riding the horse, his eyes looking straight ahead.

After a while, Hua Xiangrong reacted.

She was held in Xiao Zirang's arms.

After she came back to her senses, she was stunned for a moment, and actually asked, "You just left like this, so what should I do if I just rode that horse?" ”

"Someone will come and take it away, don't worry." Xiao Zirang replied.

She hesitated for a while, entangled, and finally couldn't help asking: "It's just that the drug test officer, I know the method of drug testing, then I can go alone." Why do you ...... Do you want to come with me? ”

She said quietly, but the words were clear, and every word could be heard by Xiao Zirang.

Xiao Zirang smiled and deliberately asked her, "What did you say?" The wind was a little strong and I couldn't hear it clearly. ”

Hua Xiangrong was a little disappointed and didn't ask a second time.

Neither of them spoke anymore.

Half an hour later, they arrived at Bai'an County to manage the county seat of Tonglin Town.

Below the county level, there is no government office, and the villages and towns are all managed by the gentry.

Xiao Zirang stopped his horse outside the city gate and looked up at the word Bai'an.

He laughed, lowered his head and whispered to Hua Xiangrong: "I'm not coming with you, did I save you so many times and let people assassinate you again halfway?" ”

Hua Xiangrong's heartbeat missed half a beat.

She lowered her eyes and unconsciously curled the corners of her mouth.

Xiao Zirang got off the horse and said to her, "It's not far, just walk over." ”

Hua Xiangrong came down from the other side, and then the two went to the yamen, speechless all the way.

The people in the rivers and lakes have rarely seen Xiao Zirang, and although these people from the yamen can see that they are from the rivers and lakes, they don't know who they are.

Xiao Zirang said very seriously that they had traveled and passed by here, and they happened to hear that there was a banquet in the town, and they didn't want to meet thieves, so they noticed that the food was poisonous, and they were vigilant, and soon they really died. The people of the rivers and lakes are generally righteous, and naturally they hope that they can eliminate violence and peace, so they came here to report the case, hoping that the official can find out the murderer and give an explanation to the people of Tonglin Town.

And this county order has long known that two people have died in Tonglin Town, and they are in a hurry, and two people from the rivers and lakes came to provide clues for him, and put on a high hat for him.

Then Xiao Zirang used a hundred dry grass to detect poison, and they found the old man who had been practicing medicine in the town for more than 50 years, and this Langzhong was quite prestigious in Bai'an County, and he happened to know that there was this method of testing drugs.

The county order was very convinced, so he immediately used this lotus root soup as a clue to investigate the case in Tonglin Town. He also thanked them again and again, without any suspicion that the case was caused by them.

Hua Xiangrong's heart was complicated.

This county order is actually someone who says what he believes or something, I really don't know how he became this county order.

Out of the yamen, Xiao Zirang seemed to see through what she was thinking, and said to her: "He bought this official originally, how capable do you want him to be, and can he still doubt us?" ”

Hua Xiangrong was stunned for a moment and said, "Then how can they find the murderer within three days?" How can you find the antidote if you can't find the murderer? ”

"I didn't expect these people to solve the case in three days." Xiao Zi let him be serious.

"Then why did we report to the official?" She couldn't help but ask.

Xiao Zirang turned his head and said seriously: "I always thought you were very smart. ”

Hua Xiangrong: "......"

He laughed and said, "It's just a joke." First, the people in the government are legitimate, they can't solve the case, I can help them solve the case, and use them to investigate the people behind the scenes, there are famous people and helpers, why not. And in this way, these villagers cannot but cooperate, and the people are afraid of officials, which is generally the case. Second, even if you can't find it, you have to give a warning to this person in the dark, so that he will not dare to do anything to you easily. But ......"

Xiao Zirang paused, lowered his head and thought about something, and was silent for a long time.

Seeing that he was no longer talking, Hua Xiangrong asked, "But what?" ”

He thought for a moment and said, "They want you to die so much, if they can really find out the clues, it is hard to guarantee that they will not jump over the wall in a hurry, and would rather die with you, and then they will not be lost." ”

Flowers want to lower their eyes.

Tell the truth.

She laughed: "They are not in a hurry, how can I catch their tails, how can I find the person behind the scenes, and find my own background." If I had known that the informant would not be able to find him within three days, I would never have gone to the trouble and startled the snake. ”

Xiao Zirang smiled when he heard her words, and said: "You are really not afraid at all, although the official can't check it for three days, but if you don't report it, you are so unwilling to make a trick, and you don't have any connections, you may not be able to find out if you give you thirty days." ”

Hua Xiang glanced at him and ignored his words.

Xiao Zirang lowered his head, touched the jade spike on his waist, and said, "Why do you want to wait for them to assassinate you?" You are also afraid of startling snakes, you have to know to use their psychology of wanting you to die, and then learn to lure snakes out of their holes, and then kill them all. ”
