Wei Feng frowned and shook his head: "I can't think of it." ”

When Zi Su asked from the girl of the Wang family, she actually said that her sister saw a man chasing after her, how could he guess?

I really want to say that the moment Lin Teng asked, he thought of a person, who was his sister's fiancé Su Yao.

In Wei Feng's opinion, the only man who can make his sister catch up when she sees it from a distance is Su Yao.

But if you think about it, it's not easy to say it casually.

Su Yao is a young and talented champion, even if the crown prince is deposed, as the quasi-son-in-law of the Pingnan Palace, it will not affect his reputation. He opened his mouth to pull Su Yao in, and in the end, if it had nothing to do with Su Yao, this family business would be yellow.

"In that case—" Lin Teng glanced at the door, "It's late now, it's inconvenient to find out the news, it's better to wait until tomorrow to check." The two girls of the Wang family could see that the county lord was chasing a man, and there would definitely be others who would see it. ”

Wei Feng was reluctant to ask: "Why don't you ask the four girls in the General's Mansion?" The shopkeeper didn't say that Miss Xu Si also came to the store. ”

Lin Teng glanced at Wei Feng deeply and explained, "The county lord was still in the store when Miss Xu Si came in, and obviously she wouldn't know what happened after the county lord went out. ”

Wei Feng touched his nose.

Lin Teng Chong Weifeng bowed his hand: "I will take someone to continue to investigate early tomorrow morning, during this period, if the prince finds something, or the county lord returns to the mansion, please send a letter to the prince." ”

"It's nature." Wei Feng nodded.

People always have to rest, not to mention that it is almost time for the night fast, and the matter has come to this point and can only be said tomorrow morning.

The night was spent in the midst of many people's unrest.

The next morning, the wind was a little strong, and there were few pedestrians on Qingxing Street, so Lin Teng led a team of subordinates to investigate separately.

There was a wine shop that was just around the corner, Lin Teng stood there and thought about it, and walked in one direction.

This is the corner where the man chased by the county lord mentioned by the Wang family girl, as long as the two big living people don't fly with wings, someone will always see it.

A girl selling flowers came in front of her.

"May I ask if the girl saw a girl wearing an apricot-colored silver silk pleated skirt when it was almost noon yesterday......" Lin Teng described Wei Wen's appearance.

The girl blushed slightly and shook her head.

"Thank you." Lin Teng thanked him and continued to ask people with one of his subordinates.

I don't know how long it has been, but the two of them have parched mouths and still haven't made progress.

The subordinate couldn't help but say, "My lord, such an inquiry is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack." ”

Lin Teng glanced at him, even if his lips were dry, his tone was still calm: "You have been following me for a long time, why are you still complaining about this?" How can there be so many real investigations, such as divine help, relying on these stupid methods. ”

It's simple, it's heavy, but it's indispensable.

Lin Teng walked forward, and saw several beggars competing for food at the root of the opposite wall, so he immediately moved his eyebrows and strode over.

As Lin Teng approached, several beggars looked over, some curious, some wary, and some afraid, and their reactions varied.

"There's something I'd like to ask you about." Lin Teng tried his best to keep his voice soft.

Several beggars looked at him silently.

Lin Teng pointed to the steamed bun shop that had opened not far away, and glanced at his subordinates.

The subordinates immediately ran over and bought a bag of steamed buns, and several beggars swarmed around, took the steamed buns and desperately stuffed them into their mouths.

Lin Teng didn't urge, waited for a few beggars to finish eating, and asked the previous question again.

This time, several beggars spoke one after another.

"I didn't see it." The beggar who said this quietly touched the steamed bun hidden in his arms.

Even if you don't see it, the steamed buns won't be returned.

"I didn't pay attention."

……

Lin Teng noticed that a beggar had a strange expression and asked softly.

The beggar hesitated, "I don't know if what I'm seeing is the person you want to ask—"

"It's okay, let's talk about it."

Lin Teng's pleasant face gave the beggar courage.

"Actually, the first thing I noticed was not the little lady in the apricot pleated skirt, but the man walking in front of her. The little lady was chasing the man, and it was only when I noticed it. The beggar bit her lip nervously.

This is not surprising, men and women in brocade clothes can be seen everywhere on Qingxing Street, and it is difficult for ordinary people to notice a strange girl without anything special.

The same goes for strange men.

So Lin Teng patiently asked: "Why, do you know that man?" ”

The beggar nodded: "Many people should have seen it, I look like the champion who rode through the streets a few months ago." ”

Lin Teng's heart jumped, and he said quietly: "Champion Lang? Are you sure? ”

The beggar scratched his head, a little embarrassed: "It's just that I glanced at Zhuang Yuanlang in the crowd a few months ago, and I think it's quite similar, if you want to say sure...... Xiaomin is not sure. ”

Lin Teng nodded in understanding, and then asked, "Did the girl catch up?" ”

The beggar stretched out his hand and pointed: "Chased into Maoyan'er Hutong." ”

"Have you seen them come out?"

"Didn't come out again." "I was a little curious when I saw them all going in, so I kept an eye on ......"

Lin Teng asked a few more questions, and when he saw that he couldn't ask anything else, he ordered his subordinates to take the beggar back to the yamen first, and then raised his feet and went to Maoyan'er Hutong.

Maoyan'er Hutong is a narrow alley, with walls on both sides blocking most of the sunlight, and moss grows at the base of the wall.

Lin Teng walked in it, and a sense of depression came to his face, but what made him happy was that it was a dead end.

There is no exit from the dead end, if it is true that the beggar said that they did not come out, the whereabouts of the little county lord will fall in this area, at least the neighborhood in this area should be seen.

It was obvious that Lin Teng couldn't do it alone, so he went out of the alley and summoned people to visit door to door, and sent Wei Feng and Su Yao to the yamen of the criminal department.

"Any news?" Wei Feng asked.

Lin Teng looked at Su Yao and said, "Someone saw the county lord chasing a man into Maoyan'er Hutong, saying that the man looked like Su Xiu. ”

Wei Feng's face turned cold when he heard this: "Su Yao, where is Wen'er now?" ”

Su Yao's calm expression changed slightly from the moment he came in: "When I heard that the county lord was missing yesterday, I thought it was a rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true." ”

Wei Feng sneered: "Don't pretend to be confused at this time. Why did you hide Wen'er? Could it be that he was dissatisfied with this family business, and he didn't want to bear the reputation of the well, so he moved this crooked thought? ”

Su Yao smiled: "Don't be angry first, shouldn't you ask where I was at that time?" ”

"I asked Su Xiu to come here to ask clearly." Lin Teng interjected calmly.

Su Yao said indifferently: "At that time, I was eating with a few colleagues at the restaurant opposite the Hanlin Academy. ”

Hearing Su Yao report a few names, Lin Teng immediately sent someone to verify.

After a difficult wait, the official came back and replied: "My lord, several adults in the Hanlin Academy have confirmed that Lord Su was indeed with them at that time. ”
