Seeing Xia Chen's confident appearance, the mayor hoped in his heart that this was not conceited. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When Xia Chen saw that the patrol captain was here, he suddenly became interested and said, "By the way, captain, can you help me get a set of patrol clothes?"

The captain was slightly stunned, not knowing what Xia Chen was going to do.

Mayor Zhao asked cautiously, "I don't know what Young Master Xia is going to do?"

Xia Chen replied: "I want to go to one or two of the families where my daughter has disappeared." ”

He wondered if he could find any clues in the discovery field.

Mayor Zhao and the captain glanced at each other, then Mayor Zhao nodded, and the captain responded with a "yes", and then said to Xia Chen: "Young Master Xia, please wait here for a while." ”

"There's Captain Law. Xia Chen hugged his fists.

"Young Master Xia, can you take a few people with you?" After the captain left, Mayor Zhao asked Xia Chen.

Xia Chen said, "How many people do you usually go?"

Mayor Zhao replied, "At least three." ”

Xia Chen nodded slightly and said, "Then add me, a total of three." In order to hide people's eyes and ears and let the captain lead the team, I will be a pawn. ”

Mayor Zhao also nodded slightly: "Okay, I'll let the captain bring another person later." ”

When the two said this, the captain had already walked over with a set of patrol uniforms in both hands: "Young Master Xia, please change your clothes." ”

Xia Chen took off the clothes he had just changed on, took over the patrol team clothes and changed them on the spot. I'll be able to use my clothes tonight.

"Captain Lao put my clothes away for the time being. ”

The captain took Xia Chen's clothes and put them away quickly.

Seeing the captain come out, the mayor of the town ordered: "Captain, Xia Gongzi said to find someone who is clever to go with you, and you will lead the team." ”

"My subordinates are going. The captain clenched his fists and took the order, then arched his hand to Xia Chen, and said, "Young Master Xia, please come with me." ”

Xia Chen bowed his hand to the mayor of the town to say goodbye, and then followed the captain to leave the township. In the squad room behind the township office, the captain found a team member in his thirties to set off together.

This team member had been a patrol member once when he was a teenager, when his father, who was still the current mayor, was the mayor of the town, so it can be said that he was more experienced and decisive than the other team members.

On the way, after Xia Chen's inquiry, I learned that this township government is the mansion of the town mayor's tenure, and when he is not the town mayor, he will live back in his own home.

The distribution of the four major family mansions in Hongye Town is: the Zhao family is in the east, the Qian family is in the west, the Sun family is in the south, and the Li family is in the north.

So, Mayor Zhao's house is on the east side of the town.

The four families have a history of two or three hundred years, the Zhao family runs a cloth village and does a cloth business, the Qian family runs a hotel inn, the Sun family runs a dart game, and the Li family runs a variety of jewelry business.

Due to the recent disappearance of a young woman, it is not only the mayor's family that is worried, but also the Li family, who runs an ornament business.

The jewelry craftsmanship of the Li family has been inherited for more than 200 years and has long been famous. Although it is said that it can be exported to other towns or state capitals, Hongye Town is their foundation, and now their business is frustrated and they have to worry.

According to the information revealed by the captain, it is true that as the mayor said, the four families run different businesses, and there is nothing to transgress and destroy the relationship.

It is also possible that it was done by other forces.

However, in a cautious state of mind, Xia Chen didn't dare to be careless, because it could not be ruled out that someone from the other three major families wanted to do someone else's business!

And once the Zhao family is dragged down and collapsed, the Zhao family's business will flow away at any time, in this case, the family that is making trouble behind the scenes is tantamount to adding wings to the tiger!

One business makes a family make a lot of money, let alone two!

After all, this red leaf town is a well-known township, and it will attract many outsiders to come to see it in autumn and winter. It's just that the disappearance of young women in the past few days has caused a lot fewer tourists, especially female tourists.

When the three of them came to the street, Xia Chen became an ordinary patrol member in style, and followed the captain side by side with another team member to the southeast.

"This brother, what do you call it?" Xia Chen thought, when he went down to investigate, it was impossible for the elder brother to be long, and the elder brother would be called shortly, so that it would be easy to see the outside.

The team member just wanted to give up, but was stopped by Xia Chen: "No need to be polite, you and I are colleagues now, just be commensurate with each other, and I will call you what your brothers call you later." ”

Seeing that Xia Chen was also a man of temperament, the team member replied: "The surname is Zhao, the name is four, the 'four' of one, two, three, four, and the 'land' of the place." Speaking of this, he smiled, "When my mother conceived me and gave birth to me, she changed a total of four places to live, so she named me four places." ”

Xia Chen nodded understandingly, and then asked, "Then what should Xia call you?"

Zhao Sidi replied: "Those who are younger than me are called my fourth brother, and those who are older than me are called Sidi." ”

"Xia has seen the fourth brother!" Xia Chen said politely, "By the way, you can call me Xiao Chen later!"

"Okay!" Zhao replied proudly.

After hundreds of years of development, Hongye Town has become quite large-scale, and now the area is twice as large as it was at the beginning!

Therefore, it will take some time for the three of them to travel from the township to the southeast of the town.

The captain walked in front, Xia Chen and Zhao Sidi followed behind, just turned a corner, and when they came to another street corner, they found a group of people in front of them who didn't know what was watching.

It was in front of a rice shop.

At the same time, many people passed by them and rushed to the front.

Zhao Sidi frowned: "Captain, something should have happened in front." ”

"Wait until I ask!" said the captain, stopping one of them and asking, "What's going on up ahead?"

was suddenly stopped, this person was a little impatient, but when he saw that it was the patrol captain, he immediately said politely: "It turned out to be Captain Zhao." ”

The patrol captain is also surnamed Zhao, and there is a Zhao Sidi by his side, Xia Chen understands that whether it is the mayor of the Zhao family or the patrol team, they are all members of their Zhao family.

It's reasonable to think about it, after all, the family should do things and rest assured, so that they won't be known too many secrets by foreigners.

Of course, if there is an inner ghost, it will have to be a different matter.

The person who was stopped by the captain had a contemplative expression, he arched his hand and said: "Specifically, I don't know the small one, but I heard Lao Wang next door say that someone bought rice in the Wu family's rice shop, and then he quarreled with the Wu shopkeeper." ”

"Why are you arguing?" asked the captain.

The man waved his hand and said, "The little one is not clear. ”

Seeing that he didn't know, the captain got out of the way and let him go.

Xia Chen said, "Captain, let's go and have a look first!"

Nodding, the captain took the lead and walked in the direction of the rice shop.
