Ask Shouyuan Chapter 6 Poor cat

He is Qi Lianfeng, a disciple of Yu Yuan Kendo, and a young and promising magistrate in Qixia City. The tranquility of Qixia City is guarded by the Lin family, and it is inseparable from the efforts of Qi Lianfeng and his four subordinates.

The white-faced catcher that Luo Qian helped Qi Lianfeng get rid of was the youngest daughter of the Lin family's second room, Lin Huaduan's little cousin.

He Zhi disappeared with Luo Gan's wine, which made him very worried. Qi Lianfeng wanted to take this opportunity to hang out, so he agreed to help Luo Gan find someone.

While chatting with He Zhi, Luo Gan learned from him that the old woman was the mother of the owner of a secret treasure shop, and came over a while ago with the development of her son when she moved into Qixia.

"At first, I just took my brother to his shop for a routine check-up, but I didn't expect that this old lady would be 'hit' on the first day of shopping? There were no witnesses on the street, so we sentenced passers-by to pay the old lady a sum of money for medicine. The old lady is actually not serious, but she fainted and howled all of a sudden, which scared us half to death, and we had to make that person pay more. ”

Luo Gan couldn't hold back and laughed.

So, in just half a month, the old lady was 'hit' ten times. I pondered that there was no obvious external injury, and Mrs. Jin shouted that her heart ached. ”

"What a living treasure. ”

Qi Lianfeng said again: "But her son will secretly return the money to those passers-by who have been falsely accused every time, and he will give one to two times more." ”

The perched glow that has entered the night is shrouded in the night, which seems very quiet.

Luo Qian regretted it. "I don't prove my innocence, you can arrest me. I will give you how much money you want to lose, but it is best not to exceed 200 Wen. ”

"Hahaha, you're at least eight hundred wen. ”

“......”

Luo Gan realized a truth: if you want to make a lot of money, you need to have enough capital. If he doesn't have enough money, he must have a reliable friend to borrow money.

"I have an idea......"

"Well, as cunning as they are, we're going to see what they're all about, and we're not going to let anyone else be wronged. ”

“......”

I searched around the streets and alleys near the mansion, but I still didn't see any trace of him.

As a sheriff, Qi Lianfeng has a keen sense of crime.

According to Luo Gan's recollection of that time, He Zhi only needed to walk straight for a while to reach the mansion. However, this mansion of the Lin family, which had been abandoned for many years, was ostensibly guarded by neighboring residents, but in reality no one would take care of it.

It's a lonely street. A stall was set up under the arrangement of the old lady of the Jin family, and this was the scene that was played for Luo Gan and He Zhi.

Once, this was the gathering place of the famous homeless people in Qixia City, and the mansion was equivalent to their other home when it was windy and rainy. The fact that the Lin family did not expel does not mean that they acquiesced.

Before and after the renovation began, the Lin family arranged for people to settle those homeless people, and some of them became the husbands who helped with the repairs.

Luo Gan heard Qi Lianfeng talk about this, and his heart was full of mixed tastes. In fact, he himself is also a homeless man with a kind heart to the Lin family.

Qi Lianfeng recalled the past: "This place is actually quite chaotic. You've been living here for almost a month, and you don't feel it?"

Luo Qian subconsciously wanted to touch the jade jue in his arms: because of the existence of Qi Lianfeng, he had not wrapped the jade jue with rune paper.

"Mess is nothing. "The back suddenly became cold, and the rune paper was in the room, and there was not much left.

"The man in that house," Qi Lianfeng pointed to a dark corner, "he cut his wife at home, but when he is old, the county order won't let us arrest him; ”

After walking around and returning to the mansion, the murderer that Qi Lianfeng said lived diagonally opposite.

"I don't usually see the door open there. ”

"Oh, he rarely interacts with people. No one else wants to come closer, and it is said that the house is moldy and smelly, and you can smell it if you get closer. The first case I encountered when I first came here a few years ago was this old man, who had entered the house once, and the smell was ...... It's like a room full of fish meat. To this day, recalling it, Qi Lianfeng still has a feeling of wanting to vomit.

Luo Gan secretly pinched his sweat. Luckily, you don't have to go through this man's house to get to the tavern.

"If you kill someone, won't you punish him?"

"Well, I don't want to? The old man became insane at the time of the verdict, and some said he was possessed by spirits. So blame us sheriffs, for not taking care of the monsters in the neighborhood. ”

"You still care about monsters?" Luo Gan seemed to have heard some terrible news.

"What? You don't know? Qixia's sheriff has always been responsible for subduing monsters. ”

"It's kind of interesting. "Luo Gan has never heard of such a novelty. Let's ask, if the people in his Black Mountain Village knew that there were spirits and the like around him, wouldn't they be scared?

"But it's no wonder you're from out of town. Qixia Mountain has a strong aura, suitable for cultivation, and it is not strange to have more monsters. However, an incident happened many years ago that almost killed the people of this city. This is the addition of the position of sheriff, and I am the fifth. As he spoke, he couldn't hide his pride.

"That's what it is...... The reason why Qixia rarely sees nightlife?"

"Nightlife?" Qi Lianfeng heard this strange word for the first time, but it was not difficult to understand Luo Gan's words, "Qixia's people basically don't go out at night. However, more than 20 years have passed, and the monster has been staying in the mountains to practice, and Qi Xia may forget about it one day. Perhaps, the sheriff will be removed. ”

The mood became inexplicably sad. Luo Gan comforted: "How can the past events of more than 20 years ago be forgotten and forgotten, the local chronicles will record them; besides, even if people forget that incident, the successive sheriffs will not be forgotten." ”

"Hey, the county order doesn't let it be recorded. Qi Lianfeng shrugged helplessly, "This is also the meaning of the above." ”

"The geese leave traces, and the people leave their names. Just because they don't remember doesn't mean that people's hearts can't remember. ”

Qi Lianfeng looked at the door of the mansion and sighed: "I think I am also the best among my disciples of the same generation, I thought that I could become a sheriff and show my strength, but it turned out to be trivial." What husband and wife quarrel and look for me, and cats go up to the roof to find me...... Luckily, I recruited a few brothers. ”

They stood at the gate and chatted for a long time, and Luo Gan was embarrassed to call Qi Lianfeng to go in and talk without wine.

"It's late at night, brother. I'm still sorry I didn't find that friend of yours, but I hope he's okay. But tomorrow I will call them over to help you find them, and when will you go out for a drink?" Qi Lianfeng felt that it was very pleasant to chat with Luo Gan.

"Then I will be cheeky enough to accept the kindness of the official, and I have to drink the wine. First of all, I don't have 800 Wen, the old lady's side...... You see we're all buddies going to drink together?"

"Hahaha...... It's a pity," Qi Lianfeng changed his words, "I hope there will be nothing to do tomorrow." ”

"Brother Qi works during the day, doesn't he rest at night?" As far as Luo Gan's feelings are concerned, Qixia's security is quite good.

"It was supposed to be a break. But lately, there have always been people who have taken advantage of the night to throw the stunned and tied thieves to the yamen, and we have been squatting for several nights in a row, but we have not squatted on this person. ”

Luo Gan was ready to open the door, but he actually heard terrible news again. He had only heard of officers and soldiers squatting to catch thieves, but he didn't know that officers and soldiers would squat on this thief catcher. "It's strange, who is it, who is it that you have caught, and why are you a thief?"

"Hey, one day dawn we have to investigate this person who was thrown into the yamen, and find that they all have a criminal record. The reason for being thrown in is attached to the note in their pocket. What kind of robbery, attempted rape, abandonment of the old and young unfilial sons in the family, abuse of wives and children...... It really makes Qixia more and more peaceful. ”

"So should you be more idle?"

"But this is not under the control of me, the sheriff who catches bad demons!" Qi Lianfeng said with a sad face, "I am a disciple of Yuan Sword Dao, and I want to come to Qixia to show my strength...... Not to mention the official documents that have been written for more than two years, and now I have turned over the files for more than a month, just to sort out the affairs of these thieves. If they are caught quickly, they will naturally be tried by the yamen, but if the evidence of such crimes is clear and does not need to be investigated, my lord said, anyway, I have been idle for more than two years, and all of them will be returned to me. ”

If a city is safe, he will be busier for the sheriff.

Luo Gan listened to this man's complaint for a long time, and what he didn't know was delayed. But as Qi Lianfeng said, it's not easy to find someone at night. How do you know that such a big person can beat many people with a crazy move.

Why should he bother? He was afraid that he would not see his wine tomorrow.

Qi Lianfeng once again planned to say goodbye to Luo Gan, and at the same time reminded that the residents near Luo Gan all had criminal records.

Well, this time it's endless. Luo Gan perfunctorily promised to be good, and chatting with the official who had read the file was very good.

Just when Luo Qian was finally about to send Qi Lianfeng away, a long cat bark floated overhead.

"What sound?"

"Is there a sound?" Luo Gan wanted to go home and sleep.

"No, you see, there's a cat on the roof. ”

Luo Gan yawned heavily. Qi Lianfeng quickly climbed over the wall and hugged the cat who was admiring the moon on the roof.

"Ha, I knew this little guy must be scared. With my years of experience looking for cats, it must have been on it hungry and didn't know ......"

How could a cat not dare to come down from such a roof? Luo Gan has no experience in finding cats, but he has experience as a cat.

It was a small orange cat that looked less than a year old, and it wasn't afraid of life at all. Curled up obediently in Qi Lianfeng's arms, looking at Luo Gan with wide round eyes.

Luo Gan could read from its eyes that it wanted to eat small dried fish.

"It's so cute, meow ......"

However, no matter how Qi Lianfeng teased, the little orange cat always stared at Luo Gan, and even stretched out its paws to him.

"Brother Qi, it's better for you to bring it back to the Yamen to raise it. Luo Gan put his hands behind his back, and the little orange cat meowed twice, but he still ignored it.

"No, the county order doesn't like cats and dogs the most. ”

"Then let it go home on its own. ”

"It's so dark, how can the kitten get home? It's so pitiful, and you see it's so hungry. Based on my experience in finding cats, its owners come to look for it these days. Why don't you raise it first?"

It is clear that Luo Gan has an indissoluble bond with this cat.

Fortunately, after agreeing to keep the cat, Luo Qian finally sent Qi Lianfeng away.
