Chapter 77: Catch It

Thinking of what happened to him that day, and remembering the disgusting face of Shopkeeper Li that day, Qiao Jinyu felt panicked in her heart.

If Zhao Kuo hadn't appeared in time, she might not have been able to tell where she would be guilty now, so that the heavens should not be called the earth.

I don't know how many girls have been poisoned by Shopkeeper Li before her.

Scumbags like this are cheaper with a thousand cuts.

It's time for the Manchu Ten Tortures and all kinds of torture to be repeated!

Lowering the curtains, Qiao Jinyu sat back in place.

"Uncle Zhao, have you heard about the results of the trial of the case? Did Shopkeeper Li confess how many women he had killed before? ”

"Hey, didn't the general tell you about the case?" Steward Zhao was a little surprised.

“…… I haven't had time to ask him yet. Qiao Jinyu was a little surprised.

She has been busy these days, and she trusts Zhao Kuo, and she always feels that since the matter has passed through his hands, these gangsters will definitely get the punishment they deserve, so she didn't ask Zhao Kuo.

Including Qiu Youcai's injury to her father, and the case of bullying villagers for a long time.

"Oh, that's it, I guess the general is too busy to tell you."

Steward Zhao carefully drove the car so as not to hit pedestrians on the road.

When the carriage turned into an alley with few people, the results of the examination of the case were revealed.

"The prefect Qian who was in charge of the trial had some tricks, and the shopkeeper Li and his group of buddies confessed to all the crimes they had committed not long after they were imprisoned."

"In the years they have been running the restaurant, they have taken a total of four girls and sold them to people. As for where the person was finally sold, and whether he is dead or alive now, they also do not know. ”

"But I estimate that even if they are alive and have the opportunity to escape from the sea of suffering, those girls are afraid that they will not have the face to come back, and it is very likely that they will choose a sparsely populated place to kill themselves in the world."

Qiao Jinyu was speechless for a long time, feeling heartache and pity for those persecuted girls.

Don't say that in this era of feudalism, even in modern times, women are bullied, and all kinds of gossip can drown people.

Not to mention in this old ancient society where women's chastity and innocence were highly valued.

If a woman falls into the land of fireworks, in this life, she will never want to have a normal life again, even if they are not voluntary.

After being silent for a while, Qiao Jinyu thought of one more thing.

"Four people, didn't they report the case when the four girls disappeared? At that time, the Qian Governor's Mansion didn't find out anything famous? ”

"That prefect Qian only took office as the local prefect two years ago, and he was not responsible for these old cases at the beginning." Steward Zhao's voice drifted slowly through the curtain.

"If it weren't for the fact that Old Man Li didn't have long eyes and hit your head with the idea, he wouldn't have been able to pull out those missing cases."

"It's just that after all, it's been too long, and the prefect of Qian just wants to track down the clues and find out the whereabouts of those girls, which is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack."

Well, even if this is the case, you can't blame the prefect for inaction.

It's just that Qiao Jinyu still feels that her heart is heavy, and it is difficult to relieve it for a while.

Back to Zhao's Mansion, it was still early.

Qiao Jinyu pondered whether she should ask Zhao Kuo how Qiu Youcai's case was tried and whether Qiu Youcai was convicted, and teased Zhao Kuo by the way.

Recently, she has been too busy, and she hasn't flirted with Zhao Kuo for a while.

How can you overcome General Zhao's rock-solid emotional intelligence and let it sprout?

But when he thought that General Zhao seemed to be very busy recently, Qiao Jinyu hesitated a little.

She ran to him, would it disturb his rest?

She hesitated at the gate of the courtyard, not noticing, Zhao Kuo had just returned from the barracks and was walking towards her.

"What are you doing here? Looking for me? ”
