Magistrate Chu shook his head and said: "I am a parent officer on the front line. The county lieutenant should be responsible for arresting thieves, but now this bastard An Shiming pretends to be sick and hides at home, throwing away all this mess.
Gave it to me."
The lady said calmly: "The master and he have always had a quarrel. If you hadn't snatched his seat from Jiangling back then, how could we have been in such trouble today?"
"Before the master came, An Shiming acted as the county magistrate in the name of the county magistrate and governed Ziling County in an orderly manner. There is no doubt about his ability. If it is really the master, how can he swallow this?
Where is your tone?"
County Magistrate Chu sighed heavily and said: "This is all my arrangement from above. Jiangling is a state, and the county magistrate can be counted with a slap in the face. Today, there is only one vacancy for Ziling County magistrate, and I just filled it."
It’s just a lack. I really didn’t want to compete with him for anything. When I got here, I tolerated everything, and my attitude as a county magistrate was so low, but he didn’t appreciate it and restricted me at every turn.”
The lady said: "That's the truth. But I have worked hard for more than ten years... let's not talk about it for now."
Magistrate Chu felt heavy. Such a big case had occurred in the county, which really made him sleepless and uneasy.
The lady gave him another cup of tea and softly comforted him.
At this time, a government official walked in quickly from outside and reported the truth about the recent search and arrests.
"What?" Magistrate Chu slapped the low table hard, "What do the soldiers guarding the city gate do for food?"
"No one found any trace of the carriage?"
The suppressed emotions in Magistrate Chu's heart finally exploded, with a livid face: "Could it be that this carriage and that woman disappeared out of thin air after entering the county? As long as they are human beings, there will be traces when they move, and they must have a place to go.
No!"
"This county is really angry! I caught these thieves, but I even tore off their skins and beat their muscles!"
If the person cannot be found, the emperor will definitely blame him, regardless of whether he is wronged or not. Since he is sitting in the position of the county magistrate, he should bear certain responsibilities when the time comes. Moreover, this responsibility is not small.
This is what officialdom is like. It's hard work when you climb up. You may not be in the same place in five or ten years, but it's easy to fall down.
The lady winked at the yamen servant and signaled him to go down first, and then said to Magistrate Chu: "Master, you don't have to be so angry, it will hurt your body."
Magistrate Chu sighed: "I'm in a hurry!"
The lady asked: "Could it be that the direction of the investigation is wrong?"
County Magistrate Chu glanced at her, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart and said: "Because we only have these clues at hand, and limited by this, we can only continue the investigation according to the original idea."<
/p>
The lady narrowed her eyes and said, "Why did these thieves kidnap a girl?"
Magistrate Chu thought deeply, he really hadn't thought about these things. After the case came, he just wanted to find the person.
"If the kidnapping was a temporary act, why would there be any need to create a few deceptions in the middle steps?"
A little trick was used to kidnap Lou Qingyi from the fishermen, and then transported her all the way to Ziling County by horse-drawn carriage.
If it is just for pure sex, Jiangling is not the only place to have such beautiful women, and following her all the way from Jiangling is also risky.
Magistrate Chu nodded: "Madam, what you said makes sense. This matter must have been planned for a long time."
The lady said: "Then what is the purpose of the person behind the scenes? Why do they focus on this woman? What is the reason?"
"Madam, let me say something first. We can think about it this way. Obtaining this woman will have an extraordinary effect on the person behind the scenes, so he planned this matter early." Magistrate Chu's heart moved.<
/p>
"Yes!" Madam nodded. The motive of kidnapping is also very important. These things must be related and considered together. Otherwise, these clues can only be piecemeal, which will not only be of no help in solving the case, but sometimes also disturb people.
ideas.
"The time for the carriage to enter the city should be at dawn. He would not be able to get in if it was too early. The weather in Qingdao is not cold now. No matter how lazy the soldiers at the city gate are, they still have to do the inspections... Could it be?
Someone deliberately put them into the city and then concealed and lied about it?"
"Madam, you just need to teach the person who is on duty this morning here, and you will know after just asking." County Magistrate Chu danced happily.
The lady said calmly: "Master, if he wanted to say something, I'm afraid he would have said it long ago."
Magistrate Chu's smile froze on his face: "Madam, what you mean is..." Since the soldier guarding the city has been bribed, it may not be easy for him to change his words easily.
After thinking for a while, he said: "This matter is of great importance, and I can't worry about so much. If he refuses to tell the truth, the county doesn't mind letting him have a taste of the county government's torture tools!" His face became gloomy.

The lady smiled bitterly and said: "What we can think of is that the other party has such a deep intention, can't we think of it?"
County Magistrate Chu was horrified: "Oh, something bad has happened. Someone, please bring all those who were on duty at the city gate this morning to come to the county government office."
The officer outside the door agreed and ran away.
After about two sticks of incense, someone reported back. Only a soldier at the south gate failed to show up and disappeared.
This man has no family and is alone. Neither his colleagues in the army nor the neighbors know where he is going, which is very suspicious.
Magistrate Chu's eyes were blank. Just as the case made some progress, the clues were immediately cut off. Time is running out, and it is really worrying.
The lady also smiled bitterly at him, and as the two looked helplessly at each other, the atmosphere became more and more solemn.
At this moment, someone outside the door loudly reported: "Master, the two young gentlemen want to see you!"
"I know, you go down first!"
After the family left, Magistrate Chu became even more nervous. What did these two people want to do when they came here?
When the wife saw her husband's absent-minded look, she couldn't help but smile: "Everyone is already waiting in front, why are you hesitating here?"
Magistrate Chu smiled bitterly and said: "Madam, for some reason, when I saw these two people, I felt panic in my heart, and my two sides were trembling..."
The lady hid her face and smiled: "You are still the official of this county, how can you be so miserable? The two of them are here just for the case. If they have any requirements, you only need to follow the rules. Don't neglect them.
Two."
"What Madam said is absolutely true! I will go meet them right now!" County Magistrate Chu bowed to Madam and quickly walked out of the house.
