Chapter 18 Street Patrol
At the end of the point, under Wang Jianchun's introduction, a group of unknown catchers came to him one after another and took a look at Li Yi.
In front of the hall, when everyone dispersed, Wang Jianchun asked, "What errands do you want to do, do you follow me to solve the case or go to the torture room to grind the case?" ”
Following you? Li Yi suddenly remembered that Wang Jianchun went outside the city to chase down the bandits before.
After deciding to stay away from Wang Jianchun, Li Yi decisively chose to go to the torture room.
Led by Wang Jianchun, when passing by the martial arts room, Li Yi's heart moved slightly.
"I heard that the leader is a martial arts cultivator?"
Wang Jianchun nodded and said, "Not only me, Lu Ping and Zhao Hong, they are all martial arts cultivators." ”
Li Yi half-jokingly said: "Boss, do you see if I have any products?" ”
“……”
Wang Jianchun did not answer directly, but took Li Yi to the place where the stone locks, lead blocks, and various weapons were placed.
"The product needs to change the blood and skin, polish the strength, and no matter how bad it is, you have to be able to play the stone lock here."
"You can try it first."
Li Yi glanced at the stone lock of the martial arts room, and was speechless for a moment.
Maybe he can carry the moving stone lock, but he can't play it.
Wang Jianchun smiled and said: "Forging the body and training the skin is the method of external practice, and the requirements for talent are not high. ”
Three or five years......
While walking, he thought that when he was about to walk to the torture room, Li Yi suddenly said, "Boss, I want to practice martial arts with you!" ”
Wang Jianchun's footsteps paused, and he hesitated: "Martial arts are not so easy to cultivate, and it takes a lot of hard work." Besides, ...... your age"
Li Yi straightened up and said matter-of-factly: "Age is not a problem, someone who has shown me bone physiognomy before, saying that I am a late bloomer, and I am very suitable for martial arts cultivation in the future." ”
Wang Jianchun looked Li Yi up and down, and finally nodded: "When you wait for Xiu Mu, I will take you to the Chiyun Hall in the east of the city to have a look." ”
"Chiyun Hall?" Li Yi was puzzled.
"You'll know when the time comes, many people have been to our fast shift and the barracks."
At this time, Liao Yongzheng, the criminal book, happened to see the two of them walking into the torture room.
"Jianchun, you came just in time, there are cases to be handed over to you to handle......
After the case was handed over, Liao Yongzheng looked at Li Yi and said with a smile: "You are Li Xun'an who assisted Lord Yin in solving the case in the hall yesterday, Xie Tangshi mentioned you to me." ”
Li Yi bowed slightly.
Liao Yongzheng smiled: "Wait a minute, you have to tell me the details of solving the case carefully, so that I can write the paperwork." ”
"Writing an essay?" Li Yi didn't quite understand.
"It's to write a merit book, around the middle of next month, someone will come to Beijing for assessment, and it's always right to write better!"
Liao Yongzheng explained: "Not only do we have to write about the case in the torture room, but you also have to go to the officer's room every few days to record and write errands. ”
"Errand?" Li Yi asked.
"It is to record all the things encountered during patrols, arrests, and verifications, so that it is convenient to check attendance in the department in the future and write a signature journal."
Li Yi blinked, is this to write a quick log, or a work report?
...…
The torture room is in charge of solving and investigating cases, recording court affairs, writing cases, and managing all matters in prisons.
After Liao Yongzheng briefly explained some of the work processes in the torture room, he handed over a stack of case files to Li Yi.
"This is a recent case of serial robbery in the city, you see."
Pointing to two of the files, Liao Yongzheng said: "These two cases are related to Ying'an Mansion, you should pay more attention and see if you can find clues to the thief." ”
Hearing this, Li Yi was puzzled.
Yesterday in the public court, Su Wenshan almost confirmed that several robberies that occurred one after another were committed by the Ying'an Mansion.
And now listening to what Liao Yongzheng said, the other party doesn't seem to know about it.
Looking at the case file, Li Yi was a little helpless.
He can see this case in vain, Ji Fu has already confessed, and the next development of the case will be decided by Su Wenshan himself.
Whether the final result is to reconcile with the Holy Lord, or privately reconcile with the Anfu Mansion, it is not something he can interfere with.
After a brief look at the case file, Li Yi once again confirmed what he thought.
These cases, like the Xu Ji Yinpu case, are very likely to be fake!
Nowadays, it is not 100% certain because there is no direct evidence.
After all, Ji Fu's confession only admitted that the Xu Ji Yinpu case was related to Ying'an Mansion, and as for several other robbery cases, there was no evidence that could directly point to Ying'an Mansion.
Putting down the file, Li Yi looked at the colleagues in the torture room who were performing their duties, and found that he seemed to be an idler here.
After eating the morning meal, Li Yi, who really had nothing to do, casually made an excuse and left the torture room.
"It's still comfortable outside!"
In Wuyifang, Li Yi pressed the knife in his hand and began to patrol along the street.
When he walked out of Wuyifang, he was familiar with Nanmen Street.
During this period, Li Yi calmed down a dispute between buying and selling, and also scolded a ruffian who was harassing a female stall owner.
Sitting next to the noodle soup stall, Li Yi took a sip of the noodle soup sprinkled with chopped green onions.
He found that even if he dealt with the trivial things in the city, his fishing progress would be greatly increased.
That's a lot more than when he sat in the chamber and fished!
Beside him, the ruffian who harassed the stall owner was holding his head in his hands and making a golden rooster stand-alone form.
"Li Xun'an!" A familiar voice rang out.
Li Yi turned around and saw Lu Ping walking briskly across the street.
"Old Lou?"
Li Yi smiled and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Lu Ping put down the knife, sat on the stall, and said: "There is a murder case in Guo County, which is affiliated outside the city, and the criminal is a martial artist. No, Fu Yin asked me to post the reward order to the south gate. ”
"How much is the reward?" Li Yi asked curiously.
"Fifty taels of gold!" Lupin stretched out five rough fingers, and then sighed, "It's a pity that this money has nothing to do with us." ”
At this point, Lupin noticed the ruffian who was staggering and almost unable to stand.
"Qiu Laosan?"
Lupin seemed to recognize the ruffian, and when he stood up, he gave the other party a big bibag.
"Damn, don't you have a pain in the ass all day!"
With a slap to the back of the ruffian's head, Lupin kicked the other man again.
"Say! What are you doing to lack virtue? ”
Li Yi's eyelids jumped, it seemed that he was still too gentle before.
I'll have to change it later!
After repairing Qiu Laosan, Lupin sat down in the stall again.
"Xun'an, do you know anything about the errand?"
Li Yi nodded.
Lu Ping said with a smile: "You write down this matter, and when you go to the official's room to record and write an errand record in two days, you will record the matter of administering justice to the stall owner today." ”
Li Yi blinked and asked, "I also settled a sales dispute earlier, can I also record it?" ”
"That's natural, these are all public achievements, and the officials will review them every once in a while, and when the time comes, whether they are appointed or dismissed, rewards and punishments will be based on bad records."
Li Yi couldn't sit still when he heard this!
"Let's go, patrol the streets!"
Together with Lupin, Li Yi continued to patrol the streets.
Looking at the young man who was full of energy and exactly the same as when he first joined the company, Lupin felt a little emotional.
"Xun'an, we also have taboos in patrolling the streets, there is no shortage of nobles with power and background in this city, so you have to be more thoughtful in everything, if you don't manage some things correctly, it's light to cause a commotion."
Hearing this, Li Yi's pace slowed down, and he nodded, "I understand." ”
Suppressing his somewhat impetuous heart, Li Yi walked in the middle of the street, letting the warm sun shine on him.
He has indeed been a little impatient lately, knowing that catching fast is a profession with a very high mortality rate, and this danger is not only reflected in the process of chasing the murderer, but also in all aspects of work.
So before he has enough skills, it's better for him to be steady.
......
Patrolling all the way, when passing by an alley, Li Yi suddenly stopped.
Near the entrance of the alley, a thin figure was crouching against the wall, burying its head deep between its knees.
Li Yi reversed his pace and walked straight to the alley.
Behind him, Lupin also followed.
"Zhang Yuan?"
Hearing a familiar voice, the little beggar huddled under the wall raised his head.
Like a frightened deer, after pulling some distance to the side at a loss, the little beggar looked at Li Yi in horror.
"It's me!" Li Yi took a step forward and squatted down, so that the other party could recognize his appearance.
"Brother Li?" Zhang Yuan was stunned, and his voice was a little hoarse.
Looking at Zhang Yuan's red and swollen eyes, as well as the clearly visible puffiness on his face, Li Yi said in a deep voice: "Who beat you like this?" ”
After a while, Li Yi, who understood the whole story, straightened up.
Things are not complicated, the reason is that Zhang Yuan did not have a meal in the morning, and he was hungry, so he took the silver and went to a pastry shop.
In the process of buying pastries, the owner of the shop saw that he was rich, and on the grounds that Zhang Yuan stole his silver, he stole all the silver from Zhang Yuan, and drove the crying Zhang Yuan to this place...
Next to him, Lu Pinnahan said: "Where did you get eight taels of silver for a little child?" ”
Zhang Yuan hid beside Li Yi and said weakly: "I came with Brother Li to ask for food." ”
Lupin: "??? ”
Li Yi coughed lightly and diverted the topic: "Go!" Go to the pastry shop! ”
......
South Gate Street, in front of the pastry shop.
The shop owner looked at the unkind official with a weak heart.
"Master, do you believe the words of this little beggar? He is a poor beggar, where did he get eight taels of silver? It wasn't stolen from me yet. ”
Glancing at the people's neighborhoods outside the shop, the pastry shop owner gradually gained confidence.
Li Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense with the shop owner, and said bluntly: "His silver was obtained from a wealthy family a few days ago, and I witnessed this with my own eyes, and you just saw that he was young and down, so he became greedy, took this child's silver, and drove him away!" ”
The owner of the pastry shop forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, and his tone began to become agitated.
"The poor master is a strong word, I'm afraid it's not the poor master who wants to dirty my silver, so he made up such a statement."
Looking at the neighborhood, the owner of the pastry shop shouted: "The big guy can testify for me, my silver was stolen by this little beggar with unclean hands and feet, I was kind enough to give him cakes to eat, but he took advantage of me to get the cakes, stole the silver I put on the counter, really a black heart with a father and no mother!" ”
Li Yiyan's face instantly became gloomy when he heard this, and the hand holding the handle of the knife tightened involuntarily.
On the side, Lu Ping's brows furrowed, and he said in a low voice: "Xun'an, the people here are noisy, and it is not easy to do things, it is better to find a place with fewer people, or take him directly to the yamen..."
"Not necessarily!" Looking at the owner of the pastry shop who kept inciting the people and adding arrogance to himself, Li Yi's eyes became more and more cold.
"You say I don't have evidence, then I'll give you evidence!"
"I ask you, what time does the little beggar come to buy cakes in the morning?"
The owner of the pastry shop thought for a moment, and suddenly realized, "Poor master, he came here to ask for food, and he doesn't even have a penny on him, how can he buy cakes?" ”
Li Yi didn't have any expression, and continued to ask: "Eight taels of silver is not a small amount, you have to sell cakes for at least two or three months to earn enough, right?" ”
"Is it possible that you have put all the money you earned in two or three months on the counter and never withdrawn it?"
The owner of the pastry shop defended: "I have been selling cakes for three months, and I have saved enough money before I receive the money once, what is this?" ”
"Three months of cake money?" Li Yi sneered and said: "Your cake is neither made of gold nor silver, even a pound of cake is only one or twenty yuan, but you said that these eight taels of silver were put into the counter when you were doing business for three months." ”
"Can your counter still turn a fragment of copper coins into whole pieces of silver?"
Stretching out his hand to slap the knife on the counter with pastries, Li Yiwei said: "Stealing people's money, deceiving officials, when the matter comes, what else do you have to say!" ”
