Zhu Qi didn't know that his jade pendant had been stolen.

It was stolen by a child among the beggars.

The thief hurried back to his lair and offered the jade pendant to his leader.

"I stole it from a eunuch, and it looks like it's worth a lot of money." The thief said triumphantly.

"Very good, Miao. I'll reward you. You go back and keep staring at the eunuch. ”

The leader patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction.

The leader came to the headquarters of the Thieves Gang and presented Yu Pei respectfully.

The helper snapped his fingers, and the bookkeeper rewarded him with a piece of silver.

"Thank you, Leader!" The leader took the silver with joy.

"Mr. Qian, do you think it's the jade pendant we are looking for?" The helper asked the military advisor next to him.

This military advisor is a middle-aged man, with a temperament different from everyone else, like a scholar, with a long beard.

His name is Thousand Fingers.

Thousand Fingers took out a piece of paper from his cuff with patterns on it.

He compared it with this jade pendant, and it was exactly the same.

"It's the person the employer is looking for!" Thousand Fingers affirmed.

"How many people are with him?" The helper asked the leader.

"He's the only one."

"You go back and keep an eye on him right away." Helper commands.

When the leader left, the helper asked Qianzhi, "What do you think should be done?" ”

Thousand fingers touched his long beard, paced and said:

"This piece of jade is invaluable, it can be seen that the identity of this eunuch is extraordinary, and he can't be tied until he is figured out."

"Mother, what are you afraid of, it's not like we haven't tied up anyone, and we've never missed a shot. If you have money, you don't make money, you don't make it in vain! The helper disagreed.

"We can tie anyone, but we can't mess with the people of the West Factory and the East Factory, otherwise we won't want to mix in the capital in the future. We have to ask the employer about it. ”

"But the employer only pays the money with one hand and the other hand, will he tell us?"

"We only asked him one thing, whether the eunuch we wanted to tie up was a factory guard. If he refuses to answer, or if he answers yes, we will return the deposit and not do the risky thing. ”

"Mr. Qian, you're fucking careful." Thumbs up.

------------------

Zhu Qi finally arrived at Qu Mansion, and the guard guarding the door said that Qu Gongzi was not in the mansion.

"Where did Gongzi Qu go?"

"Gongzi Qu is very busy, he runs to various yamen every day, and he doesn't know which yamen he is helping people fight lawsuits now."

Zhu Qi could only wander around Qufu, waiting for Quya to come back.

At this time, the fragrance of noodles wafted in, which immediately attracted Zhu Qi's nose.

A man pushing a cart passed by and set up a noodle stall at the entrance of the alley not far from him.

He was hungry and had walked a long way, and had to find a place to rest, so he borrowed a table and stool from a noodle stall and sat down to rest.

"Guest, what do you want to eat?" The stall owner asked him enthusiastically.

"No," he said, swallowing a mouthful of saliva, "I'll wait for someone, can we sit down for a while?" ”

"Alright, guest officer." The stall owner let him go.

After a while, the stall owner brought him a bowl of white noodle soup.

"Guest officer, the weather is quite cold, you can take a drink."

Zhu Qi will never return.

"This noodle soup is boiled water, you don't need money, you can drink it with confidence."

The stall owner is an old man, very kind, and he is a kind person at first glance.

"Thank you."

Zhu Qi gratefully took the soup bowl.

It's so warm, and it smells like alkaline noodles.

He took a sip, it was refreshing, and it tasted better than any kind of soup he usually drank.

He gulped down.

When he put the bowl down, it was also when he couldn't lift his eyelids.

He felt very drowsy, and gradually fell asleep with his head on the table.

The stall owner began to clean up the noodle stall, and even the sleeping Zhu Qi also cleaned up.

A man of five big and three thick came from elsewhere, put a hooded cloak on Zhu Qi, and left quickly with him on his back.
