"Captain Qin, I'm afraid I'll be here for a while. Why don't you go back first? I'll send someone to notify you when the case is over. How do you think?"

Luo Pinzheng advised with a smile.

She couldn't let Qin Anmin stay here and watch all the time. If anything unexpected happened later, it would be difficult for her to handle the situation here.

"Eh!"

Qin Anmin waved his hand nonchalantly and smiled heartily.

"I have nothing to do today, and I'm bored. It would be interesting to watch Lord Luo try a case. It's okay!"

Luo Pinzheng choked and turned to look at the other woman beside her.

Seeing that she was not dressed like an ordinary person, his eyes rolled. "Captain Qin, who is this lady next to you?"

"Oh! I forgot to introduce him!" Qin Anmin patted his thigh.

"This is the gentleman from above. His surname is Li. You can call him Lord Li just like I do."

Came from above!

Luo Pinzheng's heart tightened and his face instantly became cautious.

"Your humble servant Luo Pinzheng, nice to meet you, Lord Li. I wonder why you came to Tianhe County this time..."

When she heard that it was someone from above, she bowed and saluted, then raised her eyes and quietly looked at this "Lord Li".

Baili Honglan had a stern face.

"Do your job. Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!"

"Ah yes yes!"

Seeing that the person was so difficult to get along with, Luo Pinzheng quickly nodded in agreement and did not dare to test him further.

Su Qinghe looked at the three people opposite and nodded to Qin Anmin to express his gratitude.

It seems that Xiaoxi saw that they had not returned yet, so she went to find Qin Anmin as instructed.

But what about this Li Honglan? From what I heard, she's an official?

Zhao Xin frowned when he saw the three people who suddenly appeared in the lobby. Looking at Luo Pinzheng's appearance, it was obvious that he was not close to them and was even a little afraid of them.

After waiting for a while, several yamen runners came back with a woman.

Su Qinghe looked over and saw that it was the human trafficker from that day.

"I, Li Wei, greet the county magistrate!"

Li Wei came in and saw so many people in the lobby. She was so scared that she stuttered when she spoke.

She maintained her bowed posture and did not dare to stand up until she heard Luo Pinzheng speak.

"Well, Li Wei, are you a human trafficker?"

Luo Pinzheng nodded lightly and asked.

"Reply, Reply Sir, I am indeed a dental practitioner. I have been working on West Street for several years. My colleagues all know me."

Li Wei stood up and answered honestly, still keeping his eyes down and not daring to look at the people above.

"Do you still remember them?"

Luo Pinzheng raised his hand and pointed at Ji Yuan and Ji Qingyu.

Li Wei looked in the direction of her finger and frowned when he saw two men.

She has dealt with countless people, most of them are men.

And because they were going to be sold, she only asked them to wash their faces every day to make it easier for employers to select them. The rest were allowed to have disheveled hair and tattered clothes.

The two men in front of her were both neatly dressed and slightly dressed up, so she couldn't recognize them at all.

Although these people in her hands were obtained from others, there was no guarantee that they were obtained through legitimate means.

What if the person to be identified today is the lost benefactor of a family, wouldn’t she be in trouble if she admitted it?

She drew her conclusion after only a cursory glance.

"Your Excellency, I cannot recognize you..."

Li Wei returned cautiously, fearing that he might anger some important figure in the hall.

"Take a closer look!"

Zhao Xin was a little excited. He pulled Li Wei and turned around to face Ji Yuan and the others.

Ji Yuan nervously grabbed Su Qinghe's hand and let her look at him.

"Boss Li, take a closer look. If you remember, we won't do anything to you. On the contrary, we will reward you handsomely."

"Lord Luo, don't you agree?"

After Su Qinghe finished speaking, she turned and glanced at Luo Pinzheng.

"Ah."

Considering that Qin Anmin and others were standing by, Luo Pinzheng felt a little restrained and could only do her job as a county magistrate diligently.

After getting the county magistrate's assurance, Li Wei finally looked at the two men carefully.

At first she didn't have any impression of Ji Yuan, but when she looked at Ji Qingyu next to her, she vaguely remembered something.

The main reason was that Ji Qingyu was so beautiful, a rare sight in all her years in this business.

But because it was seriously injured and unconscious, and lived with a disfigured man, it remained in her hands and could not be sold, which left a deep impression on her.

With this association, when she looked at Ji Yuan next to her again, she felt a sense of familiarity.

Although he no longer has the scar on his face, he is still recognizable.

With an idea in mind, Li Wei turned around again and bowed to Luo Pinzheng.

"Your Excellency, I remember now that I dealt with these two people two months ago. I also remember that they were sold to a young lady."

"But her?" Luo Pinzheng pointed at Su Qinghe again.

Li Wei turned his head to take a look and shook his head regretfully.

"I really can't remember them all. There are so many buyers coming and going every day!"

"It doesn't matter whether it's her or not. What matters is whether you still remember where you got them from?"

Zhao Xin interrupted her and asked impatiently.

Li Wei frowned and thought about it.

"I will go and pick up a new group of people every half a month. There are three people cooperating with me, and they are all in several neighboring states and counties."

"As for this group of two people, I remember that they took over from Wu Jun in the south, a man named Song Yun."

"She is the owner of the Wujun Tooth Shop. She brings in a large batch of goods every once in a while."

"Zhang Yun?"

When Zhao Xin heard the name, he opened his eyes wide and turned to look at Jing'er.

"My dear wife..." A trace of panic flashed across Jing'er's face and he couldn't help but take a step back.

Zhao Xin grabbed Li Wei by the collar and questioned loudly.

"Which Zhang/Zhang, which Yun/Yun?"

Li Wei was startled by her and looked at Luo Pinzheng in panic.

"cough!"

Luo Pinzheng coughed lightly, signaling Zhao Xin to let the man go.

After Zhao Xin let go, Li Wei straightened his collar with some trepidation and stammered, "It's the gong bang zhang, the yun in bai yun!"

When Zhao Xin heard the answer to his guess, he turned around and glared at Jing'er behind him.

She walked towards him step by step. "I remember you said you had a sister named Zhang Yun who died?"

Jing'er took a few steps back in fear and spoke in a trembling voice.

"Wife, wife, it must be just the same name, how could it be her? It can't be her! She, she has been dead for two or three years!"

"It was you who bought the coffin for Jing'er, and it was you who watched her being buried!"

"Jing'er, Jing'er followed you because of this matter! Have you forgotten?"

Jing'er was crying and looked frightened.

Zhao Xin stared at him in thought, not knowing whether to believe him or not.

"Maybe he got into the Zhao Mansion by relying on this lie! He can get a rich wife and help his sister at the same time. It's a great deal!"

"Sister Zhao, don't you think so?"

Su Qinghe suddenly spoke jokingly, watching the fun from the sidelines without minding the trouble.
