Chapter 320: The Master's Reward
"Shut up, you!"
Qi Cheng'an stepped forward, took out a powdery fan from his hand, and fanned it hard.
"It's not a day or two since the ghost fire, it just so happens that I'm on duty today, so I'll take a look."
His location wasn't that far from the morgue, but neither side knew the other was nearby.
The person sent by Xie Yunyan to find Qi Chengan also went to Dali Temple first, and after learning that Qi Chengan had come near the morgue, he immediately turned back and wanted to tell Xie Yunyan first.
It was found that the morgue was empty.
As long as you go to find Qi Cheng'an again.
When Qi Chengan was at a loss, he learned that Xie Yunyan was also here, of course, he wanted to bring people to take a look at the ghost fire first.
He shook the fan for a moment, like a flower girl in front of the flower building, and said with a flattering smile: "Brother Xie, go and help me take a look~"
Xie Yunyan pointed a finger at his chest, forbidding him to come close to him.
With a disgusted face, he said: "Father-in-law Su has found something there, go there first." β
"Oh?"
Qi Cheng'an raised his eyebrows, changed his attitude in an instant, and said, "What did you find?" Come, talk as you go, don't waste time! β
Ning Shu: ......
When he came to the morgue, Qi Chengan had a thorough understanding of the general situation.
Fortunately, today's patrol brought a work.
He clapped his hands with sudden realization, "Mrs. Xie is very observant, and she is really much more reliable than Neiko." β
Ning Shu smiled silently, and the three of them stood outside the morgue, waiting for the results of the autopsy.
Qi Chengan seemed to suddenly think of something, scratched his head and smiled: "I also said it casually, and I hope that Mrs. Xie will not tell Mrs. -"
"Don't worry, no one talks as much as you." Xie Yunyan said.
Qi Cheng'an slammed the delicate pink fan in his hand, pointed at Xie Yunyan and said, "If you can have half of Mrs. Xie's good temper, my relationship with you will not be like this!" β
"Since the relationship between you and me is still shallow, then Lord Qi, please go back?" Xie Yunyan showed no mercy.
Ning Shu stood quietly aside, listening to the two of them raise the bar with a headache, and chuckled from time to time.
After waiting for only a quarter of an hour, the servant inside hurried out.
He hurriedly said: "There is something, there is something!" β
"What's there?" Xie Yunyan and Qi Chengan stepped forward at the same time to surround him.
He said excitedly: "Father-in-law Su still has some noodles left in his stomach. β
"Thanks to His Majesty's timely freezing of Grandpa Su's body, those noodles were preserved. Otherwiseβ"
"Noodles?" Ning Shu and Xie Yunyan looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of surprise in each other's eyes.
Xie Yunyan's face immediately changed, and the words he spit out at the moment when Xiao Er turned around in the restaurant also became clear at the moment.
He said in a deep voice, "Let's go, go to the restaurant." β
Ning Shu also walked out with her skirt while he spoke.
Qi Chengan couldn't figure out the situation behind him, but when he saw Ning Shudu's solemn expression, he had no choice but to follow.
Coming to the restaurant again, when the shopkeeper saw Xie Yunyan, he was no longer shocked.
He smiled slightly: "Guest officer, what else do you want to eat?" β
Xie Yunyan hurriedly turned around, reached out and took out Qi Chengan's waist, and took out his waist card to show Xiao Er, "Dali Temple handles the case, I have a few words to ask you." β
"Huh?" Xiao Er panicked again, and stumbled and said: "The guest officer is not, my lord, if you have anything to ask, the little one must know everything." β
"You just said that the last time you got the bounty, it was given by the nobles in the palace?" Xie Yunyan said bluntly: "Is the noble person a man or a woman? Is it old or young? What are the characteristics of the body? β
Xiao Er stared at his round eyes and said stunnedly: "Yes, it's an elderly father-in-law, right?" β
Hearing his words, even Qi Chengan's face turned cold.
Xiao Er thought he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The little one doesn't know if he is a father-in-law or not, but the little one saw his palace boots, and that noble person must be from the palace-"
"But a man of a kind face, more than six feet in size, and a soft-spoken man?" Ning Shu asked.
Xiao Ermu nodded, "Yes, it's just that his voice is too much-cough, so the little one thinks he's his father-in-law." β
"Is it a person?" Xie Yunyan asked.
Xiao Er couldn't see what a few people wanted to ask, and he was so anxious that he was about to cry, "Yes, you are alone." My lord, is he a good guy or a bad guy? β
Ning Shu comforted Xiao Er and said: "You don't have to worry, he is the father-in-law who serves His Majesty in the palace, but he is already dead." β
"Huh?" Xiao Er's scalp was numb for a while.
If he dies, the reward he gives is a ghost?
Xiao Er's legs were weak and he almost sat on the ground.
Xie Yunyan grabbed Xiao Er quickly and said, "He ate your noodles before he died, you can tell me in detail about the situation that day." β
"Huh?" Xiao Er rolled his eyes, and he was really going to faint.
"Small people don't kill, people don't kill small people!"
Qi Chengan hurriedly said: "I just want you to tell me about the situation that day, and I didn't say that you killed someone, what are you excited about?" Could it be that you have a ghost in your heart? β
"No, no, no." Xiao Er's forehead was already frightened into dense beads of sweat, and the more he wanted to recall the details of that day, the more his brain went blank.
Except for the scene where the father-in-law gave him the silver, he really couldn't remember the rest.
"It's okay, you think slowly, you just mentioned that nobleman, it means that you have an impression of him." Ning Shu pulled Xie Yunyan and Qi Chengan to take a step back, and she approached Xiao Er, and guided softly:
"What reminds you of that nobleman?"
"Yesβreward." Xiao Er's mood eased and gradually recalled.
While thinking, he walked to the place where Gonggong Su had sat that day, and gestured with his hands: "At that time, the noble man was sitting here, and when he was small, he smiled kindly. β
Xiao Er pointed to the table and whispered, "Then he bent down and untied his purse, took out a piece of broken silver, and seemed to say something-"
"What did you say?" Ning Shu came to the seat, sat in the position of Gonggong Su, and looked up at Xiao Er.
The same action was made to untie the purse.
Xiao Er looked at the purse on her waist, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "He said, 'The master's reward didn't expect to come in handy so soon'!" β
"The master's reward?"
Ning Shu reiterated.
"Are you sure that's it?"
"Yes!" Xiao Er patted his head, "I guess the reward he said is the broken silver in the purse, the purse is bulging, and it must contain a lot of money!" β
That's what he thought at the time.
I am also sincerely grateful to the "master" I have never met.
Xiao Er's thoughts became clearer and clearer, and his voice became firmer.
"You can't go wrong!"
The more determined he was, the more suspicious Ning Shu and the others became.
The master of Gonggong Su is His Majesty, and His Majesty will only reward some broken silver?
