Chapter 141: The Pawnshop's Dead Body Remains in the Pawn Case
Huo Yijun rode all the way to follow Zuo Yanqing, but when he walked to the city, he had already lost people.
Just as she was about to find someone to ask for directions, Zuo Yanqing suddenly appeared on horseback, as if she expected her to follow.
He asked: "Little boy, why did you follow me all the way, because you don't worry that Jiang Si is handing it over to me?" Afraid that I won't be able to take care of him? β
"No, Zuo Shaoqing misunderstood."
Huo Yijun hurriedly explained, for fear that he would misunderstand again: "After all, Jiang Sizheng was injured after saving me, and it is natural for me to worry about his injury, not that I don't believe in adults, but I also want to go." β
"I wonder if Zuo Shaoqing can allow me to visit him in Zuofu?"
Huo Yijun felt that his request was not excessive, and normal people would definitely agree.
But I didn't expect that this Zuo Shaoqing did not feel as gentle and approachable in front of people as he did in front of others.
"No need. Jiang Sizheng is good to have me take care of it, so go back. β
Huo Yijun didn't expect him to refuse her request, and with helplessness, she had to go back to her house temporarily, and wait for the opportunity to go to see Jiang Xie again.
A day later, Lord Naohaiqing, the secretary of the Qingzheng Division, had already submitted the closing statement written by the ins and outs of the eye gouging case, and soon, the people involved in the case were convicted, and Huo Yijue was sentenced to be executed on the same day.
Huo Yijun, who heard the news, was in a very happy mood.
"Lord Huo is so happy, is it because he knows that the adult is back?" Xiang Xi asked jokingly.
Huo Yijun was sitting at the door of the conference hall and was cooking the fire, and before she could reply, she heard messy footsteps at the door.
"Oh, this weather is really going to freeze to death!"
Before anyone could see him, he heard the sound of Xiang Xiu complaining, and then the door of the council hall was pushed open, and several people who entered the door with a wind and snow were chilling, and the wind blew the charcoal in the brazier.
Huo Yijun got up and looked at the few people who entered the door, and saw Jiang Xie who was still weak behind Xiang Xiu.
Jiang Xie also saw her at the same time, the two of them looked at each other, and the scene seemed to be still, and the focus of the world was all focused on the two of them.
Jiang Xie immediately turned his head and avoided her gaze.
"I..." Jiang Xie spoke hesitantly, and he didn't know what to say after thinking about it for a long time.
On the other hand, Huo Yijun greeted him generously: "Lord Jiang, is your injury okay?" β
"It's okay already, thank you for your concern."
After Jiang Xie finished speaking, he walked away.
"Wait a minute!"
Huo Yijun wanted to catch up with him, but was stopped by Chen Changsheng: "Hey, Master Huo, I still have something to ask you, is that No. 1 warehouse really so terrifying?" So many of you are trapped inside? β
"Of course, you can ask Zhong Ji to catch his head, or ask Xiangxiu to know, always don't ask me, you get out of the way first, I have something to say with Master Jiang."
Chen Changsheng didn't know why, and got out of the way in confusion.
Huo Yijun stepped forward a few steps and was about to speak, Jiang Xie turned around and looked over: "What are you all looking at, don't come in yet!" There's a case to take over! β
"Yes, yes, yes......" Chen Changsheng remembered that he had something serious to say.
Everyone gathered in the ceremonial hall.
Chen Changsheng stood up first, took out the case file, and placed it in the center of the table.
"Sure enough, as everyone expected."
"The Jinghe floating corpse case investigated by the Criminal Department and Dali Temple together, as well as the case of the dead body in the Xinglong pawnshop warehouse, are now merged because the corpses are marked by pawnshop death, so the case is merged and officially handed over to the Qingzheng Division."
"Next, we will investigate this case of the corpse, now I will introduce the facts of this case, the relevant content is in the case file, you can pass it on."
ββ¦β¦β
Chen Changsheng stated the history of the two cases during this time, but Huo Yijun's mind was not here at all, she kept staring at Jiang Xie, and wanted to know how his injuries were now.
Jiang Xie felt her gaze, and he turned his head: "Master Huo, do you have anything to say?" β
"Oh...... No..."Huo Yijun retracted his gaze and lowered his head.
Chen Changsheng finished speaking with an angry expression over there.
At the same time, all the people of the Seishoji Division have read the case file and have a preliminary understanding of the case in which the dead body is stored.
After Jiang Xie read the case file, he leaned back on the back of the chair, habitually sitting lazily: "Now that everyone is clear about the case, the next step is to divide labor." β
"Xiangxiu, you and Ji Ji will take all the catchers that the Qingzheng Division can mobilize tomorrow, plus the strength of the patrol battalion, and go to the warehouse together, clean up the corpses and cabinets inside, and count how many corpses there are."
Xiang Xiu and Zhong Ji responded in unison: "Yes!" β
Then they left their seats and left.
"Changsheng, you and Hai Qing check if there are any similar cases in the past, I want to know all the information about Xinglong Pawnshop in half a day."
"Yes!" The two men also got up and left.
Then Jiang Xie looked at Xiang Xi and instructed: "Within half a day, I want to know why these people are cheating corpses." β
Xiang Xi was a little embarrassed: "My lord...... It's kind of hard... I don't even know what it was like at the time......
"It's okay, Master Huo will help you." Jiang Xie looked at Huo Yijun, who was distracted, and tapped his fingers on the table to attract her attention, "Master Huo, why are you so focused?" β
Huo Yijun came back to his senses and got up to receive the order: "Yes, I will cooperate with Lord Xiangxi!" β
Jiang Xie turned his head and threw a look at Xiangxi, who immediately retreated.
The entire council chamber fell silent in an instant......
Jiang Xie pursed his lips and wanted to speak, but he was very hesitant when the words came to his mouth, and after slowing down, he leaned forward, put his hands on the table, and lowered his head to apologize: "That... When it comes to escaping, I talk nonsense, don't you mind. β
"Jiang Sizheng means that you think of me as Shen Shaoqing's business?" Huo Yijun's eyes burned.
Jiang Xie nodded: "Yes, I was confused, so I ......"
"I envy Shen Shaoqing for having Lord Jiang like it, but how did I hear that Shen Zhiyi Shen Shaoqing is the fiancΓ©e of King An, and it seems that it was also something that happened to the Shen family when King An was guarding the frontier."
Huo Yijun walked towards him, leaned on the table next to the table, and stared down at him: "As early as when I was turning over the Shen family case, I found that the adults were very attentive and went to worship in person, so affectionate, I thought that you and Shen Shaoqing were a couple." β
"Now think about it, Jiang Sizheng, you seem to be thinking about King An's woman, so bold, aren't you afraid of getting into trouble, or does Jiang Sizheng have another identity?"
Jiang Xie's heart was beating faster, Huo Yijun actually suspected his identity!
