Chapter 19: The Scourge of Prison (1)
For a few days, there was no news of Imperial Doctor Chen in the Tai Hospital, but the people in the Tai Hospital were not in a hurry.
But Fang Ling was not as leisurely as others, and the time for throwing the corpse from the Heavenly Prison was getting closer and closer, and if he missed this time, it would be even more difficult to save the female assassin from it.
Moreover, if this prescription can really be obtained, it will come in handy not only for saving the female assassin, but maybe it will be used in other places in the future.
What's even more troublesome is that he asked Lin Mowen to inquire about Imperial Doctor Chen's residence, but found that no one knew.
Early this morning, Fang Ling came to the rented house again, and just when he had finished the honey pill and was about to go out, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Who is it?" Fang Ling asked, a little wary in his heart, the rent was given for three months, the landlord estimated that he would not come here if he was fine, except for the landlord, who else would come to the door?
"Open the door quickly, I am Ren Huai'an, the head arrester of the Criminal Department, and I am ordered to search for the absconding criminals!" There was a violent knock on the door and a man's rude voice outside.
"Searching for prisoners?" Fang Ling frowned, but walked over and opened the door anyway.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw a tall man in his thirties standing outside, with a full face and beard, which matched his voice perfectly.
He was wearing clothes that caught fast, and a long knife hung from his waist, as if he thought Fang Ling was opening the door too slowly, he glared at him fiercely, and then looked into the courtyard, waved his hand and said, "Search for me!"
As soon as these words fell, the five or six catchers behind him rushed in at once, and began to search everywhere in the house, Xiaobai saw such a stranger coming in, and suddenly got out of the kennel, staring at everyone vigilantly.
Fang Ling stood quietly in the courtyard, watching these people rummage through the cabinets, not letting go of anything, many small places, as if they were not looking for people, but looking for things.
Soon, several catchers came back, shaking their heads one by one, but Ren Huai'an had no intention of leaving, but pointed to the rows of honey pills in the courtyard and asked, "What are these?"
"It's a pill. Fang Ling replied lightly.
Ren Huai'an sneered, pointed to the inside and outside of the house and said, "Pills, I don't think this house is yours, right? Ren's wife rents a house to make pills, I feel a little suspicious, so please go with us to the Punishment Department!"
"What?" Fang Ling frowned, this head catcher didn't look like he was joking, but he actually had to let himself go to the Criminal Department for this little thing? Fang Ling was not afraid, but felt that this was too much of a fuss.
Ren Huai'an raised his chin arrogantly and sneered: "What's the matter, your heart is empty?"
"I haven't done anything bad, how can I be weak-minded? It's just that this pharmaceutical is such a small matter, is it necessary to bring me to the Criminal Department?" Fang Ling questioned.
Ren Huai'an snorted heavily, and shouted, "Am I catching the head or are you the head catcher, how dare you question me at a young age?
