One said: "What more evidence do you need? People here know each other, can they still steal money? Only you foreigners would do such a thing!"

Su Zhuo smiled and asked, "Have you seen a lot of outsiders?"

The man was stunned for a moment, and said forcibly: "I have never been out of town in my life, where do I see strangers? Although I have not seen much, I know that you strangers are strange, either thieves or breaking the law! Two days ago, that person was, and so did you!"

Su Zhuo frowned and said with a smile: "It seems that this eldest brother is very prejudiced against me!But there were so many people in the store just now, who saw me and my sister approaching this counter?"

Everyone was stunned, shook their heads, and remained silent. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info Su Zhuo said again: "Since we have never approached the counter at all, could it be that the money in this drawer will grow wings and fly into my pocket?"

The crowd could no longer utter half a word. Su Zhuo said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, your name is Xu Ling?"

The shopkeeper nodded and said, "The Xu Ling Restaurant written on the wine banner at the door is named after me!"

Su Zhuo picked up a small brass lock from the counter and asked, "Shopkeeper Xu, this lock is the lock you locked the cash cabinet?"

Xu Ling nodded and said, "That's right, I just saw the lock on the table, and I found that the money was gone!"

Su Zhuo smiled: "What are you hiding in your hand? Why don't you take it out and show it to me?"

Xu Ling was stunned for a moment, and said, "What, I don't have anything in my hand......" However, the fist in his right hand was subconsciously clenched tighter.

The drinkers were also a little strange and asked, "Lao Xu, what do you have in your hand?"

Su Zhuo grabbed the right wrist of the shopkeeper Xu and said, "Take it out and take a look!"

Shopkeeper Xu only felt a heat on his wrist, his hand unconsciously let go, and a ball of paper rolled onto the counter. Everyone said "Huh", Su Zhuo picked up the paper ball, unfolded it, and wrote a line of words on the paper: If you want silver, cry in the store at noon tomorrow!

Some people who recognized the words read it again, but they looked at each other. Someone asked, "Lao Xu, what does this mean?"

Xu Ling was speechless. Su Zhuo smiled and said, "That's true!"

"Sure what?" Duan Lihua's voice suddenly came. Everyone got out of the way, only to see that Duan Lihua really returned, with fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose, and she actually trotted all the way back. She shouted, "Mr. Su, I'm back!"

Su Zhuo saw that she was elated, and knew that she must have gained, so he asked, "It seems that you have gained a lot!"

Duan Lihua had been waiting for him to ask, and hurriedly replied, "As soon as I arrived at that aunt's house, I told her everything you said. Unexpectedly, that aunt actually thought that she had met a fairy, and actually knelt down for me, and begged me to help her. ”

Su Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and Duan Lihua continued: "It turns out that the aunt's youngest son really slept in bed in the middle of the night last night and disappeared, instead of being lost. The reason why she went there to cry and scream was because of this!" said and took out a piece of paper with a line of words written on it: I want a son, cry on the north road in the morning!

Su Zhuo couldn't help frowning, and showed Duan Lihua in his hand. Duan Lihua suddenly became confused, and wondered, "This, what's going on?"

Su Zhuo shook his head and was silent. Duan Lihua said: "In order to help the aunt find her son, I asked some information. Her husband's name is Tian Yao, her eldest son is called Tian Feng, and her younger son is Tian Zhong. The missing child was only seven or eight years old, with a pigtail and a somewhat old blue cloth jacket. ”

Su Zhuo nodded and said, "Interesting, interesting......"

Duan Lihua asked, "What's interesting?"

Su Zhuo briefly told the situation of the hotel, and said: "Last night, the youngest son of the Tian family disappeared, and the money of the shopkeeper Xu was also stolen......

Duan Lihua interjected: "Wait, Mr. Su, you said that the money of the shopkeeper Xu was not seen last night, so why did he cry until now?"

Su Zhuo smiled and said, "Look at the account book on the counter, yesterday's account has not been calculated, why is this? Of course, it was last night that the shopkeeper Xu found that the silver was gone, so he couldn't keep the account." As for why he cried until now, of course, it was because of the words on this piece of paper that made him do it. Shopkeeper Xu, isn't that right?"

Xu Ling nodded again and again, and said, "Sir, you are really an immortal!

Duan Lihua said, "But what should I do now?"

Su Zhuo said: "Naturally, check from these two notes!"

"How do you check this note?" Duan Lihua was puzzled.

Su Zhuo spread the two notes on the counter and said, "Didn't you notice that these two characters are written very well?"

Duan Lihua was speechless, and Su Zhuo smiled: "Look at these two characters, square and square italic calligraphy. I don't think there are many people in this town who can write about it. ”

Duan Lihua retorted: "Who said it? This word is very simple, anyone can write it." ”

Su Zhuo shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you don't believe it, you can find someone to ask!"

Duan Lihua didn't believe in evil, so she grabbed a drinker next to her and said, "Can you write this word?"

The man laughed, "The girl laughed." I'm a farmer, but I can recognize a few big characters, where can I write them!"

Su Zhuo smiled: "Xiaoyi, don't be unconvinced, this town is so closed, and there are few outsiders who usually come." When I came, I saw that there was only one very small school in the town. Therefore, it is not surprising that the people of the town do not write such words. ”

Duan Lihua said stubbornly: "However, this shopkeeper can also write." Maybe he wrote it?"

Su Zhuo pointed to the ledger and said, "The shopkeeper's words are not as good as the words on two pieces of paper." ”

Duan Lihua finally sighed and said, "It seems that I can't say anything about you." Mr. Su, then you say, who wrote this word?"

Su Zhuo smiled: "Don't you remember what I just said that there is a school in this town?"

"Oh!" Duan Lihua suddenly realized, "You mean that the teacher in the school hall is the one who wrote these two characters?"

Su Zhuo said: "That's right, many teachers will write letters on their behalf. I've done that, too. Therefore, Mr. Teach's handwriting will not be bad. ”

Duan Lihua said: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go!"

Su Zhuo smiled: "I didn't expect you to be an impatient." But I still have a question......" As he spoke, he found the drinker who was suspicious of him at first, and asked, "You just said that you saw a stranger two days ago?"

The man was dazed and said, "Yes!"

"What does this man look like, what did he do?" asked Su Zhuo.

The others suddenly said, "I know, I know." The man was thin and small, and he was not a good man at first glance! He didn't do anything, just sat here and drank a few meals, and had a good ...... with the others. Could it be that Mr. is saying that this person stole Lao Xu's money?"

Su Zhuo seemed a little surprised, and frowned: "He is just talking to you, did he tell you what his name is?"

Everyone looked at each other, and one said, "Then again, it seems that I really don't know what his name is." Instead, he asked us by name and what our family was called. What a weird guy!"

One of them interjected: "But he is quite generous, and he invites everyone to drink." It turned out that he wanted to get close to us and let us let our guard down!"

Su Zhuo shook his head and smiled bitterly, and he couldn't figure out something for a while. Duan Lihua also frowned and pondered. Su Zhuo suddenly said, "Let's go and meet the teacher!" (To be continued.) )
