Datang: God-level son-in-law, salted fish will become stronger

Page 737

Among these three people, there must be criminals, and Li Dingren and Duan Yufang are the most suspected.

However, there is no evidence, at most it is only suspicion.

Torturing Qin Mu thought about it.

But these people are human beings.

As long as Qin Mu dared to use torture, they knew that Qin Mu was helpless, as long as he gritted his teeth, they would be fine.

At night, the sky is full of dark clouds.

Dudufu.

wing.

Qin Mu was still flipping through the files under the dim oil lamp, but he had no clue.

"Qin Mu, if you can't do it, forget it. The people from the Ministry of Punishment will come in two days, and then leave it to them."

"You are a son-in-law, but not a case-solving expert. You can't solve this case, so don't be ashamed."

Li Er was speaking aside, his words were full of sarcasm.

Qin Mu ignored Li Er's villainous face.

Now, there is another clue he can check, and that is an inn in the western suburbs.

The night before the incident, they stayed overnight in that inn. The official silver on the carriage was parked in the yard, but there were a hundred soldiers guarding it.

It is impossible for someone to drop money under the nose of a hundred soldiers, it is simply a fantasy.

So, this was ignored by everyone.

But Qin Mu just felt that the more impossible something is, the more likely it will happen, just like silver cannot melt in water.

I don't want to go to sleep.

Qin Mu threw the file aside and lay down on the couch.

See him lie down.

Li Er rushed over, "Qin Mu, look at you, have you made any progress?"

Qin Mu shook his head lightly, "No."

"No." Li Er stared at him blankly, and said in a deep voice, "Then...then you still have the nerve to sleep?"

"Otherwise?" Qin Mu closed his eyes, not wanting to pay any attention to Li Er.

Seeing Qin Mu's appearance.

Li Er was secretly delighted, it was the first time he saw Qin Mu so helpless.

"Okay, then my son-in-law can take a good rest, and I won't bother you." After Li Er finished speaking, he opened the door and walked out of the room.

Qin Mu was helpless.

It seems that he can't solve the case, which makes Li Er happier than solving the case.

This......

How did this emperor become! ?

After Li Er left, Qin Mu fell asleep, and went to the inn tomorrow, and probably could find some clues.

Chapter 866: Mysterious Man (1/5)

The next day.

noon.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui, dressed lightly, galloped away to the inn where Li Dingren and the others were staying.

The inn is not far from Luoyang City.

In half an hour, the two arrived.

See a guest come to the door.

Xiao Er walked out of the door and greeted him with a smile, "You two guests, are you going to stay at the top or stay at the hotel?"

"Stay in the store." Xue Rengui responded, and handed the reins to the second hand, "The fodder should be the best."

Xiaoer hurriedly responded, "I understand, two guest officers, please come inside."

Afterwards, Qin Mu and the two entered the inn.

Due to the martial law at the border of Luoyang City, there are not many guests in the inn, and it is very deserted.

Qin Mu and the others asked for two high-quality guest rooms. The two guest rooms were directly opposite each other, so they could see the front and back of the inn carefully.

Qin Mu stood in front of the window and looked around the inn, but found nothing, so he went downstairs.

At this point, it's time for dinner.

There are diners in the inn, but not many, about forty percent.

Qin Mu and the others ordered some side dishes and two jugs of wine, and looked around while eating.

"Hey, have you heard? The imperial court's 60 military pay fell into Luoshui and disappeared."

"Why didn't I hear that? Didn't you see that Luoyang City is under martial law? It is said that there are monsters who have stolen the money. It's not a peaceful year."

"Monster? I don't think it's that simple. Where do monsters come from in this world? It's all man-made."

"It's hard to say, how could the silver be missing when escorted by three thousand soldiers?"

The diners in the hall whispered and discussed the matter of military pay.

This matter is no secret in Duji Province, and it has been rumored for a long time, with different opinions.

on the other side.

A diner asked the shopkeeper directly, "Shopkeeper Hu, I heard that the convoy escorting the military pay once stayed in your inn. Do you know where the money went?"

I heard this.

The shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand and explained.

"This guest officer, you can't talk nonsense, this is a matter of losing your head."

"On the second day after the incident, the soldiers of the Luoyang city government came to the inn, turned my inn upside down, and banned me for another three days, that's all."

"If I swallowed the 60 taels of silver, why would I guard this dilapidated shop?"

"Furthermore, if you give me the 60 taels of silver, I won't spend it!"

The shopkeeper's words fell, causing all the diners to burst into laughter.

Everyone was just joking and didn't take it seriously.

Qin Mu lowered his head while eating and drinking, without saying a word.

He has a hunch that this inn is not simple, although he has found nothing now.

After eating.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui walked around the inn.

The inn was opened beside the official road, and there was a small village ten miles away from the inn.

There are about a hundred households in the village, which is considered a small village at most.

The two of Qin Mu walked around the village, but there were no surprises.

In fact, the Luoyang government has checked all the routes they took, and they have already been ruled out.

Otherwise, this inn and small village would have been banned long ago.

Sunset dusk.

Qin and Mu, who had nothing to gain, went back to the inn and went back to their room to rest.

about midnight.

Qin Mu got up, walked to the window, and under the bright moonlight, looked into the courtyard of the inn where the official bank was parked.

Continuous observation for three days.

Still nothing.

inside the room.

Qin Mu looked at the sketch of the inn, frowning, full of thoughts.

Xue Rengui poured him a glass of water and pushed it in front of him, "Master, did we think wrong? It stands to reason that an inn surrounded by two thousand soldiers is guarded by a hundred soldiers. How could the military pay be in the inn?" Stolen?"

"This...it doesn't make sense no matter how you think about it."

"Yes~" Qin Mu picked up the cup and drank it down, "But didn't we come here because it didn't make sense?"

Xue Rengui nodded, stood up, leaned against the window, and looked into the courtyard.

Qin Mu shook his head, if he couldn't find any clues, he could only go back to Chang'an.

"Master, look at that man? He has lived in the inn for a long time, and he has always lived in seclusion."

"We've lived here for three days, but we haven't seen him come out for dinner."

heard.

Qin Mu hurried to the window and looked into the courtyard. A young man in a blue-black long gown was leisurely walking out of the inn.

This man aroused Qin Mu's curiosity.

And he could tell that this man was by no means an ordinary person.

Next to the official road, in the inn, not a business traveler, not a tourist...

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

"Master, do we want to follow him?" Xue Rengui asked hastily, looking at the man's receding figure.

Qin Mu shook his head, "Don't startle the snake, let's observe his work and rest time first."

Xue Rengui nodded and continued: "Then shall we find out what he does first?"

Qin Mu shook his head again, "No need, if he is really tricky, this inn can't get rid of it. If he is not tricky, it won't help if we ask."

Hearing this, Xue Rengui was taken aback for a moment, it really meant that.

Subsequently.

Qin Mu and Xue Rengui took turns squatting in front of the window until late at night, but the man did not come back.

"Master, are you hungry?" Xue Rengui lay on the table, looking at Qin Mu who was staring at the outside of the inn with all his attention.

Qin Mu didn't look back, and continued to stare out the window, "Go downstairs and order a few dishes, and ask Xiaoer to bring them up, and we'll take turns eating. This man is probably the key to breaking the game."

"Okay." Xue Rengui responded, and then left the room.

Soon.

The shop waiter brought in the dishes.

The two took turns to eat, still staring at the room.

About midnight.

Xue Rengui had already fallen asleep on the table.

The man finally appeared in the yard.

But what shocked Qin Mu was that the man didn't come in from the front.

Rather...

Instead, he came out of the woodshed directly opposite the stable.

Qin Mu frowned, staring at the man in the yard.

Maybe it was because he stared too hard, the man actually looked up to the window.
