Chapter 45: The Vanishing Beggar
Seeing that the shopkeeper obviously knew something, but refused to say anything, Song Yu simply put another ingot of silver on the table.
The shopkeeper didn't accept it immediately: "There is such a little beggar, we can't drive it away, and ghosts can always sneak in from under our noses." Every time the shopkeeper sees it, he will deduct our wages. ”
"Do you know where the little beggar came from?"
"Where do you know? The little one has been working in the Baxiang Pavilion for several years, and that kid has been fighting with us since three months ago. Remembering to eat or not to fight, it is very difficult. Other than that, the little one knows nothing. ”
"Oh......" doesn't seem to be much useful information.
Song Yu stuffed the ingot of silver to the shopkeeper: "Then do this first." You can help me spread the news to the people nearby, and if anyone knows the whereabouts of the little beggar, they can go to Guixianglou to find me. If you want to find me after fifteen, go to Huaizhi Lane to find a family surnamed Song. As long as the news is true, no matter who comes, there will be a reward for money. ”
Guixiang Building, Huaizhi Lane...... It wasn't just an ordinary place for the rich to live. The shopkeeper gasped, hurriedly responded, and then urged the back kitchen to prepare all the wine and food, and served them one by one.
Although it is a simple dish that is not a small medicine, it is also delicious to eat. If it weren't for the drunken duck, it would have been a pretty good meal for Song Yu.
And now, Yuan Fang eats drunk duck and eats it happily. The small bird's beak struggled to tear the duck meat, and Song Yu subconsciously sighed when he saw it, "Boiled beans burn beans."
Yuan Fang, who was embarrassed to become a refiner, heard this, and only glanced at Song Yu, and then continued to fight with the drunken duck. Otherwise, it might have eaten this 10% attack buff and could beat Song Yu to the ground.
Yuan Fang was greedy, but after all, he was still a small bird, and when he ate up the whole plate of drunken duck, Baxiang Pavilion had already started doing business all the way to prosperity. There were a few rounds of light singing and dancing, and the people around him were listening to fairy music, but in Song Yu's ears, it was a song list that was played, and there were only a few songs.
Beauty is beauty, but nothing has changed. If it weren't for the young lady who was beautiful and dressed better, Song Yu would have been unable to sit still.
When Song Yu left, Xiao Er regretfully sent people all the way to the door, muttering: "That little beggar clearly comes every day, and the thunder can't move." I don't know what's going on today...... Guest officer, why don't you say a little more. Did he commit something and offend the guest officer? I know you're looking for him, so I don't show up. ”
Well, there's a reverse probe here.
"You'll be able to find him if you know this?" Song Yu said with a smile: "It's your own gossip." You just put the news out for me, and when you go back and find someone, I will reward you again. ”
The shopkeeper laughed twice and respectfully sent Song Yu away: "Thank you, guest officer!" Slow down the guest officer! ”
Song Yu, who was full of wine and food, just walked out of the alley. It's a pity that apart from that stomach of food, Song Yu got nothing else.
So far, it seems that Song Yu can only continue to wait for news. But as a gamer who has nothing to do and is looking for trouble, Song Yu swaggered to the Ping An Division the next day.
It's always better to find a class than to stay at home.
Entering the Ping An Division again, Song Yu's mood was much better. No matter how doggy Zhou Qinian is to Song Yu, it is not good for him to be a tour guide in front of his subordinates. The one who led the Song domain was still Chen Li before.
Chen Li introduced the Dan Room, Fu Room and other places to Song Yu one by one, different from the previous when he was escorted in, Chen Li specially led Song Yu into the door one by one, and introduced the equipment and personnel inside.
Therefore, Song Yu has more concepts about the Ping An Division of Yongxi Prefecture. For example, the Ping An Division in Qinghe Town is more like a police station in the area, what is needed is someone who can fully fool and guard against a strange situation, and even do not ask the Ping An Division to have the ability to solve it.
The Ping'an Division of Yongxi Prefecture is more like a very comprehensive special force, not only in charge of the defense of strange ghosts in the adjacent area, but also in charge of the development of combat methods against strange ghosts, etc., and its professionalism is a few steps higher than that of Qinghe Town. And if it really encounters the disaster of strange ghosts, it will be a battle to the death, and there is no way back.
The name of Yongxi Prefecture's Ping'an Division was also spread because of this.
In contrast, no matter how thick-skinned Song Yu was, he was a little embarrassed. The people here are more cattle than the other. If it is a week, Song Yu still has the strength to fight against the ghosts, and the identity of the top Ping An Division is reasonable.
In the past two weeks, his entries have been locked, and he can't even see the status of other people's blood bars if he is not fighting, and he is a waste person in the Ping An Division.
Zhou Qinian obviously had some considerations for the same question, when Song Yu followed Chen Li around, and finally came to the hall where Zhou Qinian was, Zhou Qinian had already opened his mouth: "The virtuous nephew Qinghe Town has a meritorious role in punishing evil spirits, and this official arranged for you to be a judge in the guards, what do you think?" ”
Song Yu didn't know whether he should nod or shake his head: "What is this judgment?" ”
After Zhou Qinian's explanation, Song Yu finally understood - in principle, the judge does not need to often come out to face the strange ghosts, and the workload is more to analyze the situation of the strange ghosts and the like. It's half a big data analysis.
"Thank you, Lord Zhou." Song Yu made a gesture, this thank you was very sincere, after all, he was able to find such a relatively safe and suitable position for him, which shows that Zhou Qinian really cares about him.
The judge in the Ping An Division is not an idle position, but Song Yu can obviously be specialized, and he doesn't have to drown in various dossiers as soon as he enters.
Zhou Qinian originally wanted Song Yu to continue to be free and free, after all, Chen Guogong's nephew did not rely on this work to get promoted and make a fortune. But Song Yu made his own request and took the initiative to participate in the case: "Where are the two strange ghosts caught outside the Baxiang Pavilion that day?" ”
It was Chen Li who answered. His Taoist skills are good, but his combat effectiveness is average, and it is rare that he has outstanding pen skills, which has become a mobile document in the Ping An Division, where he needs to be topped. can also be regarded as the senior secretary of Zhou Qinian's side.
At this time, Zhou Qinian had his own position to do, and leaving Chen Li to Song Yu was enough to see that he attached great importance to Song Yu - mainly to the people behind him.
It's just that Chen Li listened to Song Yu's question, but he showed a hesitant look. He specially pulled Song Yu to a secluded place, and then whispered: "Lord Song doesn't know, those two strange ghosts...... Nope. ”
"Gone?" Song Yu pondered for a moment the scene of being chased by two strange ghosts and jumped over the wall that day, and asked speculatively, "Escaped?" ”
"It's not. When it was time to arrest, they were gone. Speaking of this, Chen Li also had a lot of puzzles: "According to the brothers of the guards, after they noticed a strange noise and the smell of strange ghosts in the alley, they surrendered one by one. ”
As the first to be submitted, Song Yu could only deal with it with a smile.
Chen Li inexplicably felt a sense of resentment, but what he should say was to bite the bullet and continued: "They ...... While communicating with the adults, the two strange ghosts disappeared as soon as they touched the weapons of the guards! ”
The two words used in this exchange were really exquisite, and Song Yu resisted the urge to pick out his ears and helped Chen Li make up for what he didn't finish: "So, the only strange ghost you caught yesterday was me?" ”
Chen Li sneered.
"No wonder the guards were so ruthless to me yesterday......" Song Yu was a little helpless and a little unwilling, "Those two strange ghosts didn't leave any traces?" ”
"The source of the human skin worn by the strange ghost has been found, it is a foreigner who came to Yongxi Prefecture seven days ago, and there is nothing wrong with passing through the city pass." Speaking of the case, Chen Li's brows also frowned slightly, "I don't know if it's the clever disguise of the strange ghosts, or if there are other strange ghosts lurking in the state capital, so that these two strangers are also hooked." ”
Song Yu glanced at Chen Li, it stands to reason that if he was invaded by strange ghosts outside the city, he would not be able to pass the city gate defense at all. But when I first arrived, it was okay to ask about the relevant case, and then I was a little ignorant about the protection of the city gate: "Since they are foreigners, where is the place where they settled, have they investigated thoroughly?" ”
This is obviously a question that can be answered, Chen Li breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied: "It's in Guixiang Building." The guards also went to screen and found nothing unusual for the time being. ”
Song Yu was a little surprised: "Very good at hiding, these strange ghosts." ”
He was mainly surprised, in the absence of levels and skills to crush the plot, these strange ghosts were much more cunning than he felt when he watched the week. It's as if Song Yu's understanding of the alien ghosts from ability to habits has actually been misled by Zhou Mu.
What's the problem...... Song Yu couldn't think of a reason for a while.
"We will continue to send people to search. If you have any information, you will be sure to let you know as soon as possible. ”
Chen Li was also helpless. How could he have thought that Song Yu was not satisfied with being a young master, and asked about the case when he came up, or asked about a clueless case.
"It's normal that you don't have a lot of information." Song Yu sensed that it was time for him to see the dagger, and said with a smile: "You didn't even ask me how I found the strange ghost that day. ”
It's not that you don't want to ask, it's that you don't dare to ask! In that situation that day, who dared to say a few more words to Song Yu was afraid that he would have to be skinned by Zhou Qinian. But now that Song Yu took the initiative to mention it, Chen Li had no scruples: "My lord, please speak." ”
"I'll go to the Eight Fragrance Pavilion that day......"
"Adults go to the Eight Fragrance Pavilion in broad daylight?" Probably switching to the case-handling mode, Chen Li lost his vigor, and opened his mouth to question Song Yu's motives.
If an ordinary person is asked such an inappropriate question, they will still twist it more or less. But Song Yu was faceless and skinless, so he nodded and agreed: "I went to the Baxiang Pavilion to listen to the young lady singing, but before I went in, I saw those two drunks chasing and beating a beggar at the door." ”
Chen Li originally wanted to ask again, but Song Yu didn't give him the breath to ask: "At that time, I was thinking, how can I not see how it is not in line with our values in Yongxi Prefecture to beat the good people in broad daylight, so I came closer, and then I found out that those two people are strange ghosts." ”
"That's not right......" Chen Li is also a key person, as for incomprehensible words such as values, he has automatically ignored them.
You must know that the guards were led away by the first-order heavenly thunder caused by Song Yu's talismans, and according to the traces in the alley, these two strange ghosts obviously didn't only suffer one or two talismans, but they still had the strength to open up the special realm, so it was obviously a bit of a way.
And such a strange ghost is already an absolute power for ordinary people. It's no exaggeration to say that if they want to, a sneeze can kill someone.
And it's such a strange ghost, actually two of them went out together to chase and beat a little beggar?
"Who is this beggar?"
