Chapter 9: Doubts (1)
After going to the porridge shop, Chai Zhanwen saw that the nameless ancient book was still placed on the dining table, and it could be seen that no one had touched it.
Chai Zhanwen walked over and picked up the ancient book, and he planned to keep it.
Ah Rui stood beside Chai Zhanwen.
He bowed and said to Chai Zhanwen, "Do you still want to drink porridge?" Why don't I serve you another bowl? ”
Chai Zhanwen just waved his hand.
At this time, Xiao Lujun also followed to the porridge shop.
In fact, she had been here before, Xiao Lujun said, "Now are you willing to listen to me?" ”
Chai Zhanwen didn't know what he should do next, so he sat down on the chair before.
Then he looked at Xiao Lujun, who was standing not far away, and asked, "What do you want to say?" If it's about your family, I probably won't be able to help you. ”
"I'm not talking about myself."
Xiao Lujun walked over to Chai Zhanwen and stood.
Ari felt that what was going on next was none of his business, so he threw his hand over to the two of them.
"Don't go yet." Xiao Lujun said to Ah Rui, "This matter will also be related to you." ”
Despite his hesitation, Ari didn't move.
"Actually, a few of us can go and catch the thieves who appeared near the county office." Xiao Lujun decided to speak out.
It's just that after hearing Xiao Lujun say this, Chai Zhanwen and Ah Rui didn't say anything.
Ah Rui would have felt that Xiao Lujun's proposal was unrealistic.
Chai Zhanwen's idea was that Xiao Lujun was whimsical.
And they all intend to believe what Xiao Lujun said.
Without receiving any response, Xiao Lujun pursed her lips, and then she continued, "I know where those two thieves are hiding now. ”
"Since you know, why didn't you tell the prefectural magistrate this morning? Didn't the county magistrate just go to arrest them? ”
Ari felt that this was difficult to explain at all.
And Ah Rui knows that Xiao Lujun rarely seems to go out of the county office, so how does Xiao Lujun know?
Unless Xiao Lujun knows the leader of the two groups of people, how can he explain it?
In fact, as far as what Ah Rui thought of, Chai Zhanwen was also aware, so he also didn't believe what Xiao Lujun said.
Because of this, Chai Zhanwen and Ah Rui have a very cold attitude towards this.
"Why don't you believe what I say? I also told Uncle Xiao this morning, but he, like you, doesn't believe what I say. ”
"Let me ask you...... How many of those two thieves are there? ”
Chai Zhanwen wanted to know how much Xiao Lujun knew, if Xiao Lujun couldn't say anything, then it would naturally be fake.
Chai Zhanwen used a gesture to signal Xiao Lujun to sit down and speak slowly.
After seeing Xiao Lujun sitting opposite Chai Zhanwen, Ah Rui would feel that he could also sit down and listen.
He would have thought that if he really caught those two groups, wouldn't this be a meritorious service?
At that time, he can go to the yamen and become a servant, and he will no longer be just a fellow in this porridge shop.
Ari's attitude is changing, or at least becoming serious.
Xiao Lujun saw such a change.
"As far as I know, there are more than ten people in these two groups, but there will certainly be no more than twenty people."
Xiao Lujun seemed to have already figured out how to answer.
"You may not believe me when I say it, but in fact, these two groups of people have also appeared near other county towns before."
Xiao Lujun watched the reaction of the two.
"I've heard of them before I came here, but I didn't expect them to work together this time."
Xiao Lujun saw that Chai Zhanwen and Ah Rui were listening to her carefully, and she felt that this was very good.
She continued: "The leaders of these two groups seem to have known each other before, one of them is mainly selling illicit salt, and the other is mainly getting money from those traders. ”
"Our Wujian County is a place where businessmen gather, and there are a lot of people who usually come here to do business, so it is not unthinkable that they will come here together this time."
It's just that after saying this, Xiao Lujun's words are still not finished: "These two leaders are usually extremely cunning and suspicious by nature, and they will not easily appear in places they think are dangerous. ”
"In addition, I heard that there are also people like Shifu in their camp, that is, people who specialize in helping them with advice in order to avoid the arrest of the officials. Until now, they have been very difficult to catch......"
