Chapter Ninety-Eight: Solving the Case
Entering the inner hall of the yamen, there was not a single NPC on either side, but there was a person sitting on the desk, with a blue coat wrapped in a white underwear, and the whole person looked thin. His hand rummaged through the bamboo scroll on the desk, but Zhen Meili was sure that it was just an ornament, because there was no word on it.
Beneath the alternating black and silver-gray hair is a mask, with a pair of sharp eagle eyes in the middle of the white-gray mask, and a flame-like pattern painted on the forehead. And the silver-gray hair on the left side of his face obscures half of his left eye, which looks cool. But Zhen Meili felt that it would block her view.
"The old hen of the old woman's house is lost, and it is not the child that is lost, what is the case to report?
The lame Li's jujube tree grew to Ximen Guangda's house next door, and Ximen Guangda picked all the dates, wouldn't it be good for him to lose money, why report the case to our yamen?
The salary of the servant Xiaoqi should have risen, and he has not been paid for three months, this kid still dares to mention this, just look at the recent performance, and the top will not allocate funds. Where will the money come from to pay your salary?
β¦β¦
This group of guys who waste the power of the yamen is really a lot!
Xiaoqi, where did you go, why did you bring back two people, did you lose something? Don't let them come in and report these trivial things! β
"No, no, no, Brother Monkey, today is a big case, and some people gather to fight!"
Xiao Qi, the official said excitedly.
"It's really fake! Who actually dared to fight in Ping'an Town! Hurry up, bring it up. β
Zhuge Monkey: Ascension!
Yashou Xiaoqi: Mighty!
Zhuge Monkey: Take the prisoner to the court
The yamen of the two people actually created
Zhen Meili and the small vendor were brought to the church.
"Who is coming! What have you done! Why gather a crowd to make trouble! β
"Lord Monkey, why are you more excited than the two of us?"
Zhen Meili couldn't help but ask.
"Because the yamen hasn't had an accident for too long, that's why Brother Monkey is so excited, you must know that our political performance last month was 0, so the other officials have resigned."
Xiao Qi, the official explained to the two of them, apparently he was the only one left.
"Don't talk nonsense, Xiao Qi will be yours when I transfer this chair, you have to work hard, the future is limitless! Hurry up and make a note, I'm going to be questioned. β
Zhen Meili looked at this big and round cake, and instantly felt that Xiao Qi was very pitiful, although it was just an NPC.
"Lord Monkey, I am Zhen Deshuai, a flower seller, he is a small trader, today when I was buying sugar gourds from a small trader, a hooligan named Ximen Guangda appeared......"
Zhen Meili told the story again.
"Why is it Simon Guangda, this guy is getting more and more bold!"
Zhuge Divine Monkey touched his chin, because he didn't have a beard, which looked very funny.
"Xiao Qi, you go and arrest Ximen Guangda, I want to lecture."
"Brother Monkey, don't embarrass me, that guy from Ximen Guangda slipped away quickly, how can I catch it!"
Before Xiao Qi's words fell, a person came in at the entrance of the yamen, and it was Ximen Guang.
"No need to look for it, I'm here myself."
Ximen Fan and walked in slowly.
"Didn't you run away with your tail between your legs?"
"Who said that! I thought about it, I am obviously a good citizen, why should I run away? β
"Simon Guangda, is it true that they accuse you of oppressing the people and gathering crowds to make trouble?"
"Lord Monkey, I was wronged, the grass people just asked the small traders to pay back the money normally, but the small traders delayed again and again, and today I happened to see the small traders making money, so I asked him for money, after all, it is natural to repay debts!
But this flower girl Zhen Deshuai actually provoked me, I just wanted to get back what belonged to me, but I didn't expect her to instigate the small traders to oppose me together, and the small traders planned to attack me with sticks! If it weren't for my ability to do a little martial arts, these two would have succeeded in their treacherous scheme! β
Simon didn't know why he suddenly opened his mind, and suddenly wanted to bite them back.
"Damn! Obviously, you are a loan shark, and you actually want me to pay back 100 taels of silver for 20 taels! β
The small traders scolded and scolded, and they were no longer the same as they used to be.
"Is that the case?"
Zhuge Divine Monkey sat on the desk and continued to ask.
"Lord Monkey, I was wronged, we said from the beginning, if the money is not repaid within three days, the price will rise, and the small traders have not had time to repay the money!"
"But no matter how the price rises, it won't rise to 100 silver taels! You're blackmailing! β
"Who said that! I have a note, I don't believe you see! β
When Simon was fleeing, he ran home to retrieve the note.
The IOU was handed over to the official Xiao Qi, and Xiao Qi handed the IOU to Zhuge Monkey.
"The small trader borrowed 20 taels of silver from Ximen on a certain day in a certain year and a certain month in the year of Qingyuan, and agreed to repay it within three days, and if it is overdue, it will be compensated according to the price increase of 20% per hour."
"It's been 9 hours now, so the little vendor should pay me back 103 silver taels!"
Simon swore solemnly.
"You are talking nonsense, I clearly said that it would rise by 2% in the sky, but how did it become, it rose by 20% every hour!!"
The peddler looked dazed, and it was obvious that the IOU had been replaced by Ximen Guangda, or that he had changed the data.
"The note is fine, vendor, you can come over and see if the handwriting is yours."
The peddler looked at the handwriting, then at the other words, and was silent for a long time.
"I wrote the words, but the numbers are wrong!"
The peddler had read it many times, including the notes he had left behind, and the code, and he was sure that it was his own name, and even the fingerprints were exactly the same.
"Now that the human and material evidence is available, what else do you have to deny!"
Simon was triumphant, his eyes rolling.
"Can you show me?"
Zhen Meili felt that things seemed to have become a little tricky, obviously her own side was the victim, but now it was the other way around.
"Do you know how to read a flower girl? I still want to see the excitement! This is a very difficult square kanji, and not everyone can learn it. β
"You don't look down on people! What I'm best at is literacy, and I think I've been learning Chinese characters for 12 years. β
"No kidding, you're a poor man, you haven't touched a book, how can you know these magical Chinese characters?"
"Huh! I don't believe you test me! I don't know 11,700 Chinese characters, but there are more than 3,000! β
"You don't joke anymore, according to legend, 'Qiu Tian' only had 3,500 Chinese characters when it created Chinese characters, plus the lost ones, and now there are only 3,000 of them recorded, and you actually say that you know all the Chinese characters, and you don't make drafts when you say !! panic."
Simon was very angry because he only knew 200 Chinese characters himself, and knowing these Chinese characters brought him endless benefits.
"You don't have to prove it, it's no problem to show you, with me, you can't destroy the evidence."
Zhuge Divine Monkey took out the iron long whip on his waist.
This is a nine-section iron whip formed by nine iron pieces connected together by iron rings.
"Lord Monkey is mighty, you have to look at it quickly, don't be unrecognizable when the words come, hahahaha!"
Seeing the weapon that Zhuge Divine Monkey took out, Ximen Guangda naturally had nothing to say, as the head of the Yamen, at least he couldn't beat the Divine Monkey.
"That's fine! I'll show you. β
Taking the IOU, Zhen Meili looked at it carefully.
This is a relatively thick piece of hard paper, the crooked text written on it is not a problem except that it is a little ugly, there is no trace of cutting, and there is no trace of alteration, Zhen Meili even saw the dark pen signed by the small trader.
To put it simply, this is a piece of paper that has not been cut and modified.
Zhen Meili wiped this IOU with her hand, I have to say that this game is really good, this touch is simply the same as the real thing.
Shaking the paper, Zhen Meili smiled, like a spring flower. Ximen who watched it was drooling, and he didn't have to think about it to know that this guy must be thinking about how to pull Zhen Meili into the water next.
"What did you find?"
Zhuge Divine Monkey wondered.
"What can she find, she must not even know a word! Do you want to come to my house as a concubine, I can consider teaching you how to write by hand! β
Simon smiled evilly.
"Lord Monkey, can you give me two pieces of paper like it, and a glass of water?"
"What do you want this for?"
"Of course it's an IOU!"
"Xiao Qi went to get the paper and let her try it."
A few minutes later, Zhen Meili wrote the note, the standard block letters, which made Zhuge Monkey not have a lot of admiration, and he was a little skeptical that Zhen Deshuai said that the big lie of knowing 3,000 words was true.
"Lord Monkey, you see if there is a problem, if there is no problem, sign the name, and this note is finished."
Zhuge Divine Monkey looked up and down, except for a little water in the number, it was the same as Ximen's vast IOU.
"But why is there a circle of water on it?"
Hearing this, Simon broke out in a cold sweat.
Zhuge Divine Monkey stretched out his hand and pressed it on the top of the water circle, and a piece of white paper fell out.
"What, there are still words in it! So it turned out to be what was going on! β
"Yes, Lord Monkey, as long as you light candles in the dark environment, you won't find anything wrong with this IOU. Or use some special materials, you can blend better.
And the people who borrow money are anxious people and will not pay attention to the falsification of IOUs.
I think Simon took advantage of this and manipulated the original IOU, so that the small traders did not see the problem. β
Zhen Meili explained that because of her limited props, she could only make the current simple covering method, which she learned when she used the "artist's carving knife".
"But how do you tell he must have used this method to deceive?"
Zhuge Divine Monkey looked at this IOU again, but found nothing.
"Lord Monkey, you can see that there are wrinkles stained with water on both sides of its numbers, and it is obvious that Simon Guangda used some special method to make this IOU look like he didn't do anything."
In other words, this paper was covered with a piece of paper, which led to the emergence of the situation that the small trader said!
Simon Guangda, what else do you have to say? β
"I don't agree, that's just four drops of water I dropped, isn't it normal to accidentally get wet?"
Zhen Meili seemed to hear a joke and couldn't help laughing.
"Hahaha, the wrinkles on the water are not the same as the folds you specially treated, I don't believe you look at my water-stained paper, the folds are a big circle, and yours is different, it is a small point.
And who will remember that it was 4 drops of water, you yourself were exposed, Lord Monkey, do you see if there are 4 wrinkled marks? β
Ximen Guangguang was taken aback, he found that he was being tricked out by Zhen Meili, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Yes, and they are all folds of the same size, and you can't see them unless you look closely!
Simon Guangda, what else do you have to say? β
"I, I, I plead guilty!"
NPC Simon couldn't find a good excuse, so he could only obediently admit his mistake.
"Well, now this official has pronounced the verdict that Ximen Guang is suspected of forging an IOU, so this IOU is invalid.
Ximen Guangda was involved in the case of false reporting and was fined 100 taels of silver.
Simon was involved in gathering crowds to make trouble, and also used weapons to cut the tools of small traders to make a living, and specially announced that he would compensate the small traders with 50 taels of silver.
Simon was involved in illegal usury and was sentenced to one day's confinement. β
"Yay!"
Zhen Meili couldn't help but smile when she heard this verdict.
She waited for the system reward to appear, but after waiting for a long time, nothing came.
"Isn't there a reward for solving a case for the first time?"
was busy working in vain, and Zhen Meili was very sad.
The small trader returned all of Zhen Meili's money to Zhen Meili and expressed his gratitude.
"You'll be prompted to have increased friendship with NPC vendors."
After bidding farewell to the small traders, Zhen Meili did not stop longer, but hurried to the corresponding offline area.
Because time is running out, she has to go offline.
Just after Zhen Meili went offline, Ximen Guangguang smiled evilly in the dungeon.
"Dr. Jia Bao, the person you chose is really interesting!"
After saying that, Simon Guangda returned to his original appearance, and at this moment, an NPC in the dungeon was crying out loudly.
"Wronged, I didn't break the law again, why was I locked up, I was still at home just now, who was arresting me?
Tomorrow will be opened, so many players will come, how can I protect my little Lian sister, let me out quicklyβ½β½"
But no one paid any attention to him, even if he called.
On the other side, as soon as Zhen Meili went offline, she was surrounded by groups.
"Boss, why have you been gone for so long, I just filled in a message and it's over, so fast. However, my character is a scorpion, a humanoid scorpion, which seems to be classified as a "weirdo". β
The little scorpion waved its little hands excitedly. It waited for Xie Bayi for an hour, and Zhen Meili for three hours, and the game warehouse kept showing that the server had not been opened.
"My role is a flower girl, but I changed my name to Zhen Deshuai, isn't it super good."
Scorpions: ......
Robot Dog: ......
"What about you? Bayi, what is your role? β
"Boss, I really envy you all for being human, I can't even experience this feeling.
Boss, I'm so miserable, do you know what my role is? You can't guess it. β
Xie Bayi had a wry smile on his face, and it could be seen that this NPC character made him very depressed.
"What is it?"
"My NPC character is a sign !!"
