However, he immediately shook his head in his heart.
It should not be discovered, but suspected!
There was no way for him to completely 'clean up' the traces at the scene, such as arrow marks.
And after there were arrow marks, it was not surprising that it was inferred to be a weapon similar to an arm crossbow.
This is also the reason why Mo Shili spent points to put the arm crossbow into the [Qiankun Ring].
The arm crossbow is too conspicuous.
It can't be hidden from people who are interested.
And this moment of doubt?
It should be an instinct of the other party.
An instinct to never trust others because of their profession.
As long as there is something wrong with him, the other party will bite him and won't let go.
However, how could he, Mo Shili, panic?
After five days of patient waiting, he had already confirmed that no one from the government was watching him anymore, and no one could prove that he was not in this temporary home last night.
As for the middle-aged man with a tiger-like smile who appeared in front of him where he stayed?
There is no way the other party would come here in the middle of the night to check whether he is there or not.
Therefore, the other party came earlier than him, but only to a limited extent.
Otherwise, what awaits him is not a temptation.
But shackles and shackles.
No witnesses!
There is no physical evidence!
What happened to the Zheng family was done by the 'righteous rat'.
The whole old city of Chang'an knew about this.
What does Mo Shili have to do with him?
"Thank you sir."
Mo Shili took his time, rolled up his sleeves with a smile, washed his hands and face.
The water was held up in the palm of his hand and pressed firmly on his face. As he rubbed it up and down, the warm feeling made Mo Shili feel refreshed and his mind became clearer.
Lu Laosan, the Zheng family's affairs have nothing to do with him.
He, Mo Shili, is a poor child whose uncle, whom he depends on for life, was taken away.
Moreover, he is still a poor child who will soon be treated as an abandoned child.
After wiping some water on his face, Mo Shili raised his head and took the cloth towel handed to him by the hunchbacked middle-aged man. After thanking him again, he wiped it carefully. Then, he hung the cloth towel on the branch of the tree in the small courtyard and raised his hand.
He poured water on the side of the courtyard.
The middle-aged man smiled as he watched Mo Shili put the washbasin into the room.
Suddenly, the other party said——
"Do you know anything about your uncle's whereabouts?"
"How is my uncle?"
Mo Shili immediately looked anxious and rushed to the middle-aged man with a single step. He was about to raise his hand to grab the middle-aged man's shoulder, but he suddenly thought it was inappropriate and hurriedly stopped.
He looked at a loss what to do.
Completely in line with the simple look that a country boy should have.
The middle-aged man smiled and waved his hand.
He admired Mo Shili's appearance at this moment.
There is no malicious intent.
Just simple appreciation.
Coupled with his observations in the past few days, the middle-aged man finally made up his mind and said——
"Don't worry."
"Let's sit down and talk slowly."
"My surname is Wu, I am named Wu Lao, and I am the seventh child. Therefore, everyone calls me Wu Lao Qi, and I am a member of the 'Martial Soldiers'."
The middle-aged man introduced himself leisurely.
But when he heard the word 'martial soldier', Mo Shili was not surprised at all.
He had already made a guess when the head catcher faced Wu Lao Qi with a respectful look.
Wu Zu, a special institution of the New Dynasty.
A bit similar to Jin Yiwei.
But unlike the Jin Yiwei, the soldiers have greater rights.
because--
Martial soldiers can be killed first and then played!
These are the conclusions Mo Shili drew from other people's mouths combined with his own guesses.
Mo Shili, who had been prepared for it, seemed to be frightened and took a step back. There was panic on his face, and he became even more trembling when he spoke.
"I've seen you, my lord."
What would be the attitude of ordinary people when facing military soldiers?
Fear and panic are normal.
In fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that the color changed after hearing it.
In fact, let alone military soldiers, ordinary people trembled when they saw the policeman.
The officials with bowed eyebrows behave evil in all kinds of ways!
‘Evil official’ is not a simple word.
That can really tear a good family apart.
Bullying superiors and flattering subordinates is completely engraved in the bones of those people, otherwise they would not be able to wear that skin.
As for suing the official?
Let’s not talk about officials protecting each other.
Just one sentence, "No matter how clean your official position is, you can't escape being as smooth as oil" explains everything.
Ordinary people can't make any great sense, let alone stand up to the trouble.
Therefore, the only option is to hide.
Mo Shili, who knew this well, acted like an ordinary citizen.
The performance was lifelike.
When he guessed Wu Laoqi's identity, he rehearsed it in his mind more than once.
At this time, there will naturally be no flaws.
Wu Laoqi was obviously used to seeing this scene.
"My background is still a bit different."
"However, you are still young and it is not too late to change things."
Wu Laoqi sighed slightly in his heart, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.
"It doesn't have to be like this. You and I have met each other, and I know that you are a simple and kind person, so...
Are you willing to join the military force?"
Wu Laoqi changed the subject, leaving Mo Shili stunned on the spot.
This time it's not a show.
But I was really surprised.
According to Mo Shili's previous guess, he believed that he had been abandoned.
But Wu Laoqi seems to not want to give up on him?
Mo Shili couldn't help but look at Wu Laoqi, his eyes full of confusion.
There are so many people who are honest, kind and innocent, why don’t we see these people become military soldiers?
Even if he showed great affection and righteousness and was not afraid of hardships and dangers, it was not enough for Wu Laoqi to recruit him as a soldier.
yes……
Because of the forces behind the attackers!
The other party still needs him as bait!
The disappearance of the attacker, the disappearance of the entire Zheng family, and the fact that no one was alive or dead, and no clues could be found despite knowing that it was related to the secret force, made the other party anxious, and naturally refused to give up anything.
A little bit of hope.
That's why he was recruited as a soldier.
And Wu Laoqi, who could recruit him as a soldier so easily, has a higher status than he imagined, and the power he holds is even greater.
"Am I making a mistake?"
Mo Shili's thoughts were changing in an instant, and his words were even more direct.
"Sir, I do!"
"I want to find my uncle!"
After saying that, Mo Shili directly raised his hands and clasped his fists.
Not only did he express his wishes, but he also expressed what he was doing.
He, Mo Shili, is different from others.
He is not coveting the identity of a military soldier, he is just looking for the convenience of his uncle.
Such words made the admiration in Wu Laoqi's eyes even stronger.
Wu Laoqi nodded and said.
"Wu Zu, specializes in handling mysterious and evil cases!"
"The imperial power has granted the right to kill first and then report later!"
"Also, don't call me sir from now on, just call me boss."
"Remember, it's the boss, not Mr. Wu."
Boss?
Wu (no) leader?
Mo Shili looked at Wu Laoqi in surprise. He thought that people like Wu Laoqi should not have such taboos.
"Ahem, there are some things that I would rather believe that they exist than that they don't exist."
"It doesn't hurt to be more particular."
"Tonight, when it's time to light the lanterns, I'll take you to Lao Wang's Sheep Soup House to meet a few colleagues like you."
Wu Laoqi muttered a few words and then left the courtyard.
Watching the other party's back disappear at the corner of the alley, Mo Shili turned around and closed the courtyard door, and looked at the text that appeared in front of him -

Looking at the prompt in front of him, Mo Shili's eyes immediately filled with joy.
