After the system ran, I took off with my family

Chapter 310: Baiting the Thief with My Body

"Erhu, listen to me and take your sister out of the city as soon as possible."

Constable Liu looked at Liu Erhu seriously, thought for a moment, and then looked around to make sure no one was paying attention before he lowered his voice and explained, "I can't tell you more, but what I can tell you now is that the murderer is ruthless and cruel. With his abnormal psychology, he will definitely not give up. And we speculate that the murderer may be hiding near the embroidery workshop."

The two of them visited the place all morning this morning and found that except for occasionally going to Dongguan School to deliver things to her father, Miss Zhao went to the embroidery workshop most of the time, and she disappeared near the embroidery workshop, so they reasonably speculated that the murderer must be hiding near the embroidery workshop.

In addition, most of the people who come and go in the embroidery workshop are women, and there are many unmarried women like Miss Zhao who go there alone to deliver embroidery products. Perhaps all of them are the targets of the murderer.

"Really...really? No, I'll go find my sister now!" Liu Erhu knew that Brother Sijin was not joking with him, so he quickly stood up and rushed out.

"and many more."

Constable Liu grabbed him and said, "Calm down. Take the panic off your face. Don't scare your sister."

"Forget it, I'll go with you." He would feel uneasy if he didn't see Chunmei leave the city.

Just like that, Constable Lin watched helplessly as his colleague took the man away after eating just a few bites. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Well, I'll ask Lao Gao to pack the remaining dishes in a lunch box and take it back to fill Lao Liu's stomach."

When Constable Lin also stood up and left, Qing He and Qing Zhi looked at each other, and then looked at their young lady at the same time, excitement in their eyes.

"Let's talk about it when we get back to the inn."

Lin Shuyue interrupted what they were about to say, called the restaurant owner to come forward to settle the money, and then took the two of them back to the inn.

Arriving at the inn, Lin Shuyue sat down and poured herself a cup of tea, then looked at the two little girls, "What did you two want to say just now?"

Qing He and Qing Zhi looked at each other and hesitated for a moment. Qing Zhi took the lead and stepped forward: "Miss, I want to catch the murderer."

"Tell me what you think." Lin Shuyue looked at her gently.

"Miss, we have heard what the official said just now. The murderer will commit crimes again and is likely to hide near the embroidery workshop. Therefore, I want to lure the thief with my own body."

Qingzhi pondered for a moment and then put forward his thoughts.

"With my skills, I am more than capable of dealing with a villain. This villain is ruthless and cruel. If we don't stop him, more girls will be killed. Miss, please let me go."

After saying that, she knelt down and looked at Lin Shuyue with a firm look.

She is no longer the powerless little beggar who suffered torture in Wan Mansion. Now she is capable of capturing the criminals to prevent more innocent women from being harmed.

At this time, Qing He also stepped forward and knelt down, and said with a firm look: "Miss, my idea is the same as Qing Zhi's. I beg you to fulfill it."

Lin Shuyue stared at the two of them for a moment, and sighed in her heart, "I'm sure you have guessed the purpose of going to that restaurant today. I had planned to catch the murderer, but I never thought that the three of us, master and servant, had the same idea."

She sighed that the experience in the Wan Mansion had hurt the two little girls too deeply. But that was also a good thing. She could take this opportunity to cut out the rotten flesh in their hearts.

"Get up, I agree."

"Thank you, miss!"

Qinghe and Qingzhi stood up happily, they knew that the young lady was the kindest person.

However, Qing He looked at Qing Zhi, then at her mistress, and said seriously, "Miss, I am more suitable to be the bait than Qing Zhi, because I can do needlework. If the murderer hides in the embroidery workshop, it will be less likely for me to be exposed."

When Qingzhi heard this, his eyes widened immediately, "No, I'm better than you, it's safer for me to go."

"Then you underestimate me. Although I can't beat you, I am more than capable of dealing with a bad guy." Qinghe did not give in as usual.

"But...."

Seeing that the two little girls were about to quarrel, Lin Shuyue said quickly: "Okay, okay, since you both want to go, then both go. Can't you just pretend that you don't know each other? Then we'll see if the murderer will take the bait."

"I will not interfere in this matter. Whether it succeeds or not depends on your own abilities. Anyway, we are not in a hurry to leave, so you can do what you want.

But remember, don’t be careless. There are always people who are better than you. Don’t let carelessness lead you to fall.”

She was still very confident in the skills of the two girls, so she regarded this matter as an experience for the two little girls.

"Yes, we will keep your teachings in mind, young lady." Qinghe and Qingzhi bowed respectfully with excitement and excitement on their faces.

Afterwards, Lin Shuyue watched the two little girls chattering for a while, then excitedly went back to her room and changed back into women's clothes, holding a few purses and embroidered handkerchiefs in her hands. She said hello to her master and left the inn and did not return until dark.

She didn't ask any more questions. The next day, she said goodbye to them and went to Qingfeng Temple in Zigui Mountain outside the city.

The Zigui Mountains are continuous and peak-like. Qingfeng Temple is located on the hillside on the east side of Zigui Mountain. There is a huge rock on the east side of the Taoist temple, which is shaped like a tiger. It is said that many scholars and literati come to the temple to stay for a while just to climb up the huge rock to watch the beautiful sunrise in the east.

The sun had just risen when Lin Shuyue arrived at Qingfeng Temple, but the open space in front of the Taoist temple was already crowded with people and bustling.

The stalls on both sides of the open space sold a wide variety of things, including food, flowers, birds, insects, fish, as well as straw sandals, straw hats, baskets, bamboo baskets, etc. that some villagers near Zigui Mountain brought to sell early in the morning.

After walking around and eating a bowl of hot wontons, Lin Shuyue turned and went to the Taoist temple behind her. Qingfeng Temple was actually not very big, with only one main hall. On both sides behind the main hall were guest houses for pilgrims to rest and spend the night, with men on the left and women on the right, separated by two courtyards in the middle.

Lin Shuyue walked into the hall and the moment she looked up she saw a gigantic statue of a god. The statue had a divine light on its head and was holding a red sun in its hand, looking like an immortal.

At this time, the cushions in front of the statue were kneeling with pious pilgrims, mostly women. On the left side of the hall sat a Taoist priest with a long beard and wearing a green Taoist robe. In front of the Taoist priest stood many pilgrims waiting for their divinations to be interpreted.

Following the pilgrims in front of her, she lit a stick of incense and donated some money, then Lin Shuyue walked out of the hall. As soon as she walked out of the hall, she saw a young Taoist boy wearing a green Taoist robe and with a childish face walking towards her.

The little Taoist boy was slightly startled when he saw Lin Shuyue, then he restrained his expression, pursed his lips, bowed to her seriously and entered the hall.

Lin Shuyue looked back. The little Taoist boy was cute and polite. She smiled and then walked towards the lively area on the right side of the Taoist temple.

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!
