Chapter 39: The Case of a Missing Child
Mo Wuxian put down the cup, stood up and walked back and forth, and asked, "What age are these missing children?"
Qiao Qijiang also stood up and replied, "Between the ages of eight and sixteen." The families of the missing children have been reported, and now there are a total of fifteen children missing, and this is only in our Dongcheng District, if you add the other four districts, it may reach hundreds!"
Mo Wuxie's eyes suddenly became cold, even Qiao Qijiang, who had been through a hundred battles, had a sense of trembling, making the latter lower his head and not dare to look at each other.
"Why is there no result in such a big case?" He sternly questioned Qiao Qijiang's ability to handle affairs! In fact, he had already linked that boy to this case, otherwise he would not have rushed to the Governor's Mansion!
Qiao Qijiang didn't dare to raise his head, but sighed: "Little Lord doesn't know, I have already sent several times more arrest to investigate this matter, but I don't know what Lu Dao is, once there is a clue, this clue is like a very coincidental interruption, every time, so, it is difficult for us to obtain evidence!"
His simple words made Mo Wuxian fall into deep thought.
After a long time, he said: "It seems that it is not that the clue has been interrupted, but that someone has already obtained your action plan." When you go, they have already arranged a hidden plan, which should be the reason for your repeated defeats!"
Qiao Qijiang also suspected it, but there was no evidence, and he still asked tentatively: "Could it be that the little prince suspects that there are ghosts in my Duwei Mansion?"
Mo Wuxian nodded and said, "This possibility cannot be ignored, the person who can get your action plan in advance is definitely not an ordinary person, there must be someone behind this kind of person that you can't afford to provoke, otherwise, this case would have been closed long ago!"
Qiao Qijiang pondered, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still had no clue.
When Mo Wuxian saw his appearance, he knew that he couldn't handle this case. So he said: "Okay, you don't have to worry about this matter, Young Master Ben will use Young Master Ben's way to completely arrest a certain person in the future, and give Lang Lang a fair!"
Qiao Qijiang asked, "Then do you still need me to catch this inner ghost?"
Mo Wuxian smiled: "No, you just need to pay attention, don't startle the snake, if you are not careful, some people will let your life be lost, as for what to do, I will inform you!"
Watching Mo Wuxie's heavy steps disappear into the Governor's Mansion, Qiao Qijiang's eyes were cloudy. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, summoned a think tank, and asked, "Xiao Jinyi is catching fast, what have you been busy with lately?"
Mo Wuxie's Dulong horse came and went like the wind, and it only took a while to return to the Duke's Palace.
Looking at the tongueless boy again, the frost on his face has finally dissipated a lot.
The boy lay on the bed, breathing evenly, but his face always flashed with pain from time to time, as if he was dreaming.
Mo Wuxian had just gotten up and was about to go out, when he heard the sound of the boy turning over, he immediately looked over, revealing a puzzled expression.
I saw the boy curl up, like a leather ball, and his whole body trembled constantly.
According to normal people, this action is simply not possible, why would this boy be like this?
The simple change immediately caught his attention.
Suddenly, a family member outside walked in and said that Miao Xiong was visiting.
Mo Wuxian sorted out his emotions and let Miao Xiong in.
"Mo Shao, how are you doing lately?" Miao Xiong greeted from afar.
Mo Wuxian nodded and said, "You look good!"
If Miao Xiong was overly drunk in the past, then the current situation is even worse, which is still caused by the incident of "beautiful women screaming at night" last time.
Miao Xiong smiled bitterly and said, "Mo Shao, I came to thank you this time, if it wasn't for your help last time, I might have lost my life!"
Mo Wuxian waved his hand and said, "It's a trivial matter, don't talk about it, what are you holding in your hand?"
Miao Xiong held a long brocade box in his hand, looked at it nostalgically, and gave it to Mo Wuxie: "This is a little bit of my brother's heart, please don't shirk!"
Mo Wuxian suddenly thought of the last time he was in the Imperial Capital Square, Miao Xiong said that there was something good for him, and immediately guessed that this was the treasure? What could it be? He smiled on his face, and said that he was very unruly, and he actually followed.
"Hehe, whatever it is, don't be in vain!"
He thought in his heart, the smile on his face was even brighter, and Miao Xiong kept observing his expression on the side, thinking in his heart, I took out all the treasures of the town family, I believe, Mo Shao will definitely take care of me in the future.
Mo Wuxian opened the box, and there was a jade box inside. The jade box opened again, and his breathing suddenly became short, and his face showed surprise.
"This, this is 10,000-year-old ginseng!" Mo Wuxie's eyesight was immediately recognized, and it was still well preserved.
"Mo Shao, this is the little brother's little heart, it is said that this 10,000-year-old ginseng has many effects, one of which is said to be able to live the dead and give birth to white bones. Of course, this is just a legend, I don't know if it's a legend!" Miao Xiong explained.
"There is nowhere to find it when you step on the iron shoes, it takes no effort to get it, God helps me, now I only need a single collarbone, and I can refine the elixir for my eldest brother! It's really good!" He looked at Miao Xiong again, from the initial use mentality, to appreciation, and said: "Ten thousand years of ginseng, although it is not as capable as the legend, but if it is used properly, it is still very useful." ”
On the market, the most common is ten-year-old ginseng, which is precious, and even more precious is thousand-year-old ginseng, and 10,000-year-old ginseng is naturally a legendary existence.
Mo Wuxian calmed down his excitement, patted Miao Xiong's shoulder, and praised: "Brother Miao Xiong, your business will be my business in the future, I have accepted this treasure, I will give you a surprise in a few days, and promise to return you a strong body! In addition, even if I owe you a favor, as long as it is within my means, I will help you!"
Miao Xiong waited for Mo Wuxie's words, rubbed his hands excitedly, nodded like pounding garlic, he didn't expect the result to be many times better than the budget, and said: "Thank you Mo Shao, thank you Mo Shao, you have orders in the future, as long as someone passes the word to the little brother, the little brother will definitely go all out!"
Mo Wuxian nodded, thinking of the last medicinal herb, and asked, "Brother Miao, do you know that there is a medicinal herb in the Dao called a single collarbone?"
Brother Miao thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I don't know what to do with this, isn't it sold in the pharmacy?"
Mo Wuxian sighed and said, "The medicinal herb shop in the imperial capital has already been turned upside down by me, and if there is one, it will be found a long time ago!"
Brother Miao suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "Mo Shao, I heard that Situ Zhe transported a large number of medicinal materials from the south into Beijing, and I don't know if there is a single collarbone in it, you can ask him!"
Mo Wuxian suddenly pondered, Situ Zhe had a holiday with him, and it was the kind that couldn't be solved, and now he was the second prince's person, so it would be difficult to do this.
"Could it be that this batch of medicinal herbs belongs to the second prince?" suddenly popped up in his heart.
Thinking that the second prince had asked Situ Tianyan to frame him, although he was not sure if the assassination was his behind-the-scenes manipulation, based on the previous article alone, he decided to have a good deal with the second prince!
