Lihua slept soundly. When she woke up the next morning, she found out that Aling had caught a little thief who wanted to stun them last night. After getting dressed, she hurriedly went to the next room to see what the little thief was.
When I walked in and took a look, I was stunned, "Aren't these three?"
Aling hugged his shoulders and followed behind, "Yes, we caught one first, and two more accomplices came from behind to save the one in front."
She said and smiled at the skinny thief. He dared to say that he had no accomplices, hum.
The little thief was glared at and lowered his head. He felt helpless. If he had known earlier, it would be better to ask his accomplices not to save him. Now it was better. The three of them were all told to be here. If they really went back, they would be in trouble.
If I had known earlier, if I had known earlier, if I had known earlier, I shouldn't have targeted these people.
Early in the morning, the innkeeper was wiping the table and benches with a rag and looking towards the stairs from time to time.
When I looked upstairs again, I couldn't help but widen my eyes. I didn't even bother to clean the table, "Shopkeeper, shopkeeper..."
The shopkeeper behind the counter raised his head when he heard the sound and was also stunned.
Yang Dalian and the Tao brothers went downstairs each with a thief in their hands and asked the shopkeeper: "Where is the town official? Please go report the case and ask the police to come. We caught three thief last night."
"As he said that, he threw the two bamboo tubes in his hands on the counter, which contained the incense.
The shopkeeper's eyes widened and he looked at the three thieves, then at the incense on the counter, and then at Yang Dalian, "Uh..."
"Housekeeper, is this inn of yours a black shop? Three little thieves came into the inn late at night, and you didn't even know it?" Al-Ling said, "No wonder this inn is deserted and there are not many guests!"
When the shopkeeper heard this, his face was full of pain, "You can't say that, you can't say that! We are not a black shop! Our business has been very good before. Since one night a few days ago, the hotel owner
Among the guests, two little girls disappeared inexplicably early in the morning, and the person who reported the case was not found. After that, the business of our inn stopped."
"It's not just us, it's the same at the inn next door. I haven't seen one before, and a little girl disappeared inexplicably the day before yesterday. It's really weird!"
"I never thought there were thieves kidnapping people!" The shopkeeper was also excited when he said that, and quickly asked the clerk to go to the town office to report the news.
The previous missing girls were all passing through from other places. It had been a few days and he didn't know if his family was still in town waiting for news, but the little girl who was lost next door the day before yesterday still had her parents living next door.
, waiting for the Yatou to solve the case and find his daughter!
Song Qiu and the others heard that this was not the first time. A girl had been kidnapped before. No wonder they stayed at the hotel yesterday. The shopkeeper and the waiter had a strange expression. I guess they were happy to have business, but also afraid.
Something happened.
Fortunately, they have the ability to protect themselves. Otherwise, wouldn’t they have been tricked last night?
The shopkeeper knew this clearly but kept it secret for the sake of business, which is also a shame.
The shopkeeper knew that he was in the wrong and was stared at by several people, so he had to laugh and apologize, and repeatedly said that he would only charge them half of the rent.
Nothing happened, and Song Qiu couldn't hold on to others. It was good to waive half of the rent, so he didn't say anything more.
Not long after, there was a commotion outside, and several guards and waiters entered the inn, followed by several people. When they entered the door, they saw three tied thieves, and they rushed up, kicking and beating them.
"Where did you take my daughter? Give me my daughter back!"
"Where is my sister? Where is my sister?"
If the guards hadn't stopped them quickly, these three thieves would have been torn apart.
The leading Yamen asked the shopkeeper what happened, and finally his eyes fell on Song Qiu and his party. He looked up and down at the sturdy Yang Dalian, "Did you catch the thief? How did you catch it? Tell me one by one.
"
The man was arrested by Aling. Aling stepped forward and told everything about last night.
The Yamen chief frowned when he heard this, and what he said made Song Qiu and his party almost roll their eyes.
He said calmly: "If you say that it was several of these big men who worked together to catch the thief, can you still believe it? This thief is both smoke and knife-savvy, and you can catch him just by a little girl."
Are you alive? So easy to catch?"
"Could it be that you two are accomplices, right? Seeing that the town hall has been heavily searched in the past few days, I felt that I couldn't escape, so I deliberately pushed three minions to take the blame and suppress this matter?"
Aling stared and almost drew his sword out of anger. What do you mean they are accomplices? They are the victims! Are they not interested in protecting themselves?
She did draw her sword.
He pulled out the sword and cut off a corner of the table next to him. He looked at the Yamen head and said, "In this case, do you think I can catch three little thieves?"
The Yamen leader was stunned for a moment, but then he drew the sword from his waist, raised his hand and said: "You are definitely the accomplice! No wonder we couldn't find it after searching for several days! It turns out that the crime was committed by a master of martial arts!"
Song Qiu: ...No wonder someone was kidnapped seven or eight days ago, and these guards didn't even catch the clue.
With such a brain, if the thieves have done enough and leave here, they may not be able to catch them.
Al-Ling took a few deep breaths, suppressed the urge to give the yamen a blow, waved his hand and gave the little thief a head start, "Tell me! Who is the accomplice? Where is the kidnapped girl?"
The thief didn't expect that the yamen would say that. His eyes were slippery, and he decided to use his trick to fish in troubled waters in order to take advantage of the opportunity to escape.
Suddenly he was possessed by the drama spirit, shook his head and said: "We are not accomplices! We are not accomplices! I definitely don't know you, girl!"
That's what he said, but the look on his face made people think that was not the case.
The Yatou was even more sure that he was not wrong. He waved his hand and said, "Catch them all! Examine them one by one!"
Seeing that the situation was on the verge of breaking out, Yang Dalian reacted quickly and ignored the three thieves. He surrounded Song Qiu and others first, with wary expressions on their faces.
There are seven young men here with bare hands, and there are five servants and government officials there, all with sabers in their hands. The outcome seems to be clear.
But the Yatou looked at A Ling who was surrounded behind and the soft sword in her hand, and finally felt a little less confident.
If we really fight, we can't beat him.
What if this group of thieves goes crazy and kills people on the spot?
It didn't matter whether the case was solved or not. He didn't want to lose his life.
The Yamen weighed the pros and cons and wanted to take back his life, but there were so many people watching, so he couldn't get off the stage for a while.
The two sides fell into a stalemate.
At this time, Song Qiu said: "We did arrive here just yesterday evening. If the Yamen don't believe it, you can send someone to go to You Town. It's not far there. We passed through You Town yesterday afternoon. We were in the town."
I’ve been to the tea stall in Kou. In our line of work, I think the waiter at that tea stall has an impression.”
This is true, the Yatou wanted to go down the steps.
Song Qiu continued: "If we were really accomplices, we would have escaped long ago, why bother?"
"Now we have caught the thief. Since some people have been lost, the top priority is to interrogate these thieves quickly and find out where the kidnapped girl is."
