Chapter 255: The Dust Has Settled
The whole kidnapping case has been settled.
On Baker Street, Lin Yan is still practicing and walking birds as usual.
His Spring City divination is still as cold as ever.
Only occasionally some old neighbors on Baker Street came to grab medicine.
The neighbors of Baker Street also knew about Da Zhuang's death in the cell, and they would sigh to each other after tea and dinner.
The whole case has been decided, and the government has finally determined the news that the entire kidnapping case was planned by Qian Youwei's eldest son, Qian Cheng.
His purpose was to take over the inheritance of the Qian family.
But for unknown reasons, he died tragically at home.
People can't help but sigh in their hearts, good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and they only strive to come sooner or later.
While Qian Cheng was operating this matter, he bribed some officials in the yamen, and these officials who took bribes were also found out one by one by the county commander Di Yuesheng, and none of them ended well.
Da Zhuang and his long-term friends became the victims of this incident.
Da Zhuang was killed in prison, and the other long-term workers also evaporated, and it is estimated that they were all killed by Qian Cheng's men.
Qian Youwei also said that after this incident, he let go of all the affairs in the family and planned to move to the countryside and live a secluded life alone.
The Qian family is also naturally inherited by Qian Gong.
After Qian Gong became the head of the family, he first said that the Qian family would be responsible for the rest of his life for Da Zhuang and several other long-term workers, and Qian Gong publicly and sincerely apologized for Qian Cheng's previous actions.
It is said that when facing the families of several long-term workers, Qian Gong, who had become the head of the family at that time, knelt down in front of these family members!
You must know that it is too difficult for a man to kneel to his parents, and it is really difficult to make a man kneel.
First of all, Qian Gong was also a victim, and he almost lost his life; secondly, they were just ordinary people, and their previous sources of livelihood all pointed to the Qian family, a huge family of the Qian family, and it was not easy for the patriarch to kneel down and apologize to them.
The culprit is not Qian Gong, but Qian Cheng.
Qian Cheng's tragic death also made the hearts of these family members feel a little better.
Everything seems to have settled down.
Until one day, on Baker Street, a young man who looked like a weak scholar came.
The residents of Baker Street were a little incredulous, what was the county magistrate of Portman Town doing on Baker Street alone?!
Baker Street is in Portman, which is an extremely remote and economically backward place, how could the county magistrate come here?
After Di Yuesheng stepped into Baker Street, the neighbors who were originally chatting in twos and threes all bowed their heads silently, not daring to look directly at Di Yuesheng.
Di Yuesheng casually walked up to a person and asked, "May I ask, is there a young man named Lin Yan who lives in this neighborhood?"
The person who was asked by Di Yuesheng looked a little flattered, "Is that the ...... The white-haired one?"
"Yes, yes. ”
The man stretched out his hand and pointed to the "Spring City Divination Pharmacy" next to the street and said, "That's what he opened." ”
"Oh, thanks. ”
Di Yuesheng thanked him and walked towards Lin Yan's shop.
The person who was asked for directions just now was still a little like a dream, and after seeing Di Yuesheng leave, he hurriedly said to the person next to him: "You quickly pinch me to see if I am dreaming! Just now, the county magistrate actually said 'thank you' to me??!!
The passers-by behind him didn't mention it, Di Yuesheng came to the door of Lin Yan's shop, looked up at the wooden plaque, stretched out his hand, and knocked on the door.
"Come on, come on......"
Lin Yan's voice sounded from the room, "Do you want to divinate or catch medicine......
The door was divided left and right, and Lin Yan found that it was Di Yuesheng who knocked on the door, and he was stunned for a moment, "Come in and talk." ”
Di Yuesheng nodded, walked in, and closed the door with his hand.
Lin Yan made a pot of tea and poured it for Di Yuesheng, "Are you so free today? ”
Di Yuesheng picked up the teacup and took a shallow sip, "There is something I want to trouble you." ”
Lin Yan looked at him playfully, "Something happened to your junior sister?"
"En?" Di Yuesheng put down the teacup in his hand, "How do you know?"
Lin Yan smiled, "Guess." ”
"You guessed it. Di Yuesheng nodded, "She's missing." ”
"Oh, and this?" Lin Yan put away his smile, "What's going on?" ”
Suddenly, a mysterious smile appeared on Di Yuesheng's face, "I saw your signboard just now that it says divination, why doesn't it count?"
"Hehe, ten trigrams and nine liars, I happen to be one of those nine. Lin Yan said with a smile.
"You know, she and I are from the same sect. ”
"Yes. Lin Yan nodded.
"Our sect has always been very low-key, but its strength is very high. Di Yuesheng looked at Lin Yan and said.
"How tall?" Lin Yan was still smiling.
"Taller than the Tang Gate. ”
The two looked at each other.
Di Yuesheng continued to say as if he was taking care of himself, "Mengping and I didn't simply come here to be county magistrates, but Portman Town has what we want. ”
The smile on Lin Yan's face remained unchanged, still listening to Di Yuesheng's words.
Di Yuesheng continued: "This junior sister of mine thinks that you are a great threat to us. ”
Lin Yan still didn't speak.
"She likes to do everything herself. This time she disappeared and did not return to the sect. ”
After saying this, Di Yuesheng stood up.
Lin Yan also stood up, "That's what you want to say?"
Di Yuesheng nodded.
"Why do you want to tell me?" Lin Yan asked.
Di Yuesheng glanced at him with a little meaning, "I didn't tell you anything, it's all your guess." ”
Lin Yan shook his head, "I still don't understand." ”
Di Yuesheng didn't speak, but waved his hand and turned around to leave.
"Wait!"
Lin Yan stopped him, and his tone seemed a little anxious.
"Well, what's wrong?" Di Yuesheng looked back at Lin Yan.
Lin Yan pointed to the teacup, "That, the tea money you drank just now, the best Pu'er I brought from Shu, three taels of silver, settle the account." ”
Di Yuesheng looked at Lin Yan's harmless expression, and was speechless for a while.
He took out a silver ingot from his bosom and threw it back to Lin Yan, "No wonder your shop is so deserted." ”
"Thank you, Lord Prefectural. "Lin Yan got cheap and sold well.
Di Yuesheng looked helpless, but when he turned around and turned his back to Lin Yan, he smiled heartily.
When Di Yuesheng pushed open the door, Lin Yan's voice came from behind, "I'll pay attention, although I don't understand, I still want to thank you." ”
Di Yuesheng paused, and then strode away from Baker Street.
