Zhao Huai slept directly until noon the next day before getting up.

If there is nothing going on, he will not get up early, he can sleep for a while, and the daily business of the pawnshop is average, and he is not in a hurry.

Seeing that his wife was already busy in the stove room, Zhao Huai smiled slightly.

I plan to habitually open the door of the pawnshop and turn over the sign that says "open".

But when he opened the door, on the carpet of the door, he saw a bloody storage ring.

Zhao Huai walked out of the door and glanced left and right at the street, there were people coming and going, and there was nothing abnormal.

"Whose ring?"

So he looked at it curiously.

It's just that what was inside surprised him a little.

Piles of spirit stones and silver tickets, which seemed to be quite numerous, as well as a large number of antique objects, and finally a seal and a blank piece of paper.

"Aren't these silver tickets the ones I gave out yesterday?"

"And these antique playthings, which were also picked up yesterday."

Zhao Huai immediately knew the origin of these things, weren't they all from the profiteer yesterday?

Almost instantly, Zhao Huai realized something.

He hurriedly took out the last seal and the blank paper.

It was a very small seal, stained with dried blood, only the size of a thumb, made of amber jade, carved into the shape of a tiger's body, with a small seal engraved underneath.

"It's... Tiger Talisman? ”

Zhao Huai immediately recognized the thing in front of him.

It is the tiger talisman required for marching and fighting and mobilizing the army in ancient times, also known as the soldier talisman.

He immediately opened the blank paper again to see what was written on it.

"The shopkeeper's words yesterday inspired me a lot, and these things will be handed over to the shopkeeper..."

Zhao Huai read the beginning, and already guessed in his heart who the owner of the letter was, that is, the guard with the sword, so he continued to read.

After a while, Zhao Huai finished reading the letter, and after reading it, he put pen to paper—the old man of Dayan was even more sure that this letter was left by the guard.

At this time, Zhao Huai finally figured out what happened last night and the origin of those treasures.

This letter was left by an old soldier of Dayan, who used to be an errand in the capital, and after the fall of Yandu, he took away a large number of treasures, but afterwards he was extremely guilty, and because he couldn't get used to the vicious behavior of this profiteer, he finally shot and stabbed the other party.

Thinking back carefully on the divination results of that day, Zhao Huai also knew why the result of buying this profiteer was a "disaster" whether he bought it or not.

Because he doesn't make money from these cultural relics at all, he relies on black to eat black.

If it weren't for this old pawn, the profiteer would definitely send someone to deal with him, thinking so, the death of the profiteer would still solve one of his own troubles.

"I didn't expect him to be a member of the Great Yan Army." Zhao Huai still has a trace of admiration for this old man in his heart.

Although he failed on the battlefield, it is rare to be able to still have a bit of loyalty for the sake of the past grace.

Of course, maybe it's also because I think too much, this profiteer is very hateful, maybe if he doesn't die, this guard may not kill him so quickly.

Zhao Huai clenched the tiger talisman in his hand, packed up the antiquities and silver tickets in front of him, and put them back into the storage ring.

Either way, things are over, and people have to look forward.

"The yamen handles the case, and all give way!"

A shout came, and blue-robed catchers appeared on the street.

Holding an iron ruler with a solemn face, he strode towards the door of the small pawnshop in Huaizi, and several people directly surrounded the door of the pawnshop.

When Zhao Huai saw this scene, he was also quite indifferent.

Last night, I thought that the people from the yamen would arrive early this morning, but I didn't expect it to be late at noon, it seems that he and Yan Jing still overestimated the efficiency of the yamen.

"A few errand officials, what kind of case do you want to handle when you come to my shop? I'm a good citizen, and I don't do anything illegal. ”

Zhao Huai made a puzzled look and said quite innocently.

The leader did not reply, but first looked at Zhao Huai's appearance.

This is their professionalism, first grasp a little basic information by looking at people.

It's just that the person in front of him has white skin, eyebrows like swords, stars in his eyes, and he is quite handsome.

It looks like the kind of weak and being raised by a wealthy woman, and it is difficult to get along with the most vicious criminals.

"That's right, shopkeeper, last night, a merchant was killed in the suburbs, I have investigated this man's itinerary, he has only been to you that day, and has stayed with you for the longest time, so you are very suspicious."

As he spoke, he stared at Zhao Huai with his eyes, trying to find a subtle change in his expression on Zhao Huai's face.

"The merchant... He's dead!? ”

Zhao Huai's face was full of shock, as if he had just learned the news.

"How can you suspect me, and I have no reason to kill him!"

Zhao Huai's tone was very wronged.

"You still have a motive, maybe the business is not negotiated, or maybe the price is not in place, it is possible." Another catcher standing next to him.

Zhao Huai smiled bitterly: "What kind of business to do, what price to negotiate, I was completely cheated." ”

"Describe it briefly."

Zhao Huai complained directly: "That businessman is obviously a profiteer, I was kind enough to bargain with him that day, but he actually deceived me with a fake night pearl, and my wife can testify to this." ”

"Fake Night Pearl? Is it because you were deceived that you killed him in anger? ”

"No way, just a bead, not really."

Zhao Huai shook his head and said.

This fast catcher always led Zhao Huai in the direction of killing, intentionally or unintentionally, but Zhao Huai was not affected at all.

The head of the fast catcher quickly exchanged glances with several fast catchers behind him.

They saw all of Zhao Huai's reactions, but they didn't find anything unusual.

"Let's go to the yamen to talk about the specific situation in detail, and it can be regarded as a report." The head of the fast catcher turned his head and said to Zhao Huai again.

"To the Yamen?"

When Zhao Huai heard this, he was naturally unhappy.

"Can't you just say it here?"

"There are officials in the yamen, who will record the situation, and we will record everything you say." Catch the head and say.

Zhao Huai also understood, the other party asked him to go to the yamen to make a confession.

But who would want to go to that cold cell, he doesn't know what these traps are thinking?

It's not so much a confession as an attempt to use the threat of prison to see if he can show some flaws.

"Get out of the way! Don't get in your uncle's way! ”

Just when Zhao Huai wanted to take out the copper coin and divinate the good fortune, an arrogant voice came from the side of the road.

He and the catchers around him all looked over.

I saw a rich boy wearing a brocade robe and three rings on one hand rushed here.

"Li Yanqing?"

Zhao Huai couldn't help but be happy when he saw someone coming.

Walking straight towards the pawnshop, triumphant, the high-spirited Li Yanqing saw the fast catchers blocking the road around him, as well as Zhao Huai in the middle.

His expression suddenly became ugly, and he roared directly:

"Damn it, I don't want to live anymore!"

"Dare to surround this son's life-saving teacher!"
