Chapter 14 The Missing Woman

On the second day, Du Si woke up alive from the cold. He got up from the cold ground, a burst of dizziness struck, and Du Si fell back on the bed again.

He was so sore now from the stiffness of the floor that he had difficulty turning over.

Du Si was invited by Zhu Zhixian yesterday and went to the flower hall to chat with him, Zhu Zhixian seemed to have said something else.

His head was in pain, he drank a lot of wine last night, and finally talked with Zhuzhi County for a long time... Du Si was startled, he remembered, last night Zhuzhi County ordered him to go to Linshui County to investigate the disappearance of the son and daughter-in-law of a wealthy family case.

The light green official robe seemed to be still in front of him, Du Si was so excited, he hurriedly packed his clothes regardless of the headache; this was the first mission he accepted in this world, he must not miss this opportunity, Although it is a co-investigation, it is better than sitting in the yamen all day reading and sleeping.

Du Si sneezed several times again, wondering why he slept on the floor yesterday, could it be that he turned down by himself in the middle of the night?

He thought for a while, and only recalled fragments. Dusi seemed to be helped to the side of the bed, but how he fell asleep on the floor... He really couldn't remember.

He suddenly heard the sound of footsteps from far to near, and the only one who could run into his courtyard like this was Du Heng.

"My lord, where are you going?"

Du Si said without raising his head, "Go to Linshui County to investigate the case."

"Investigate? What case?"

"In Linshui County, the son of a wealthy family lost his wife. Zhuzhi County ordered me to assist in the investigation."

After Du Si packed his luggage, he took Du Heng to the restaurant for breakfast. When the master and servant arrived, they found that there was already a lot of quarrel.

"You and I are both yamen servants, what are you doing protecting him like this?"

"Am I called asylum? My lord is just, strict, honest and upright, why are you slandering him behind his back?"

"The mouth grows on me, I can say whatever I like, you can control it!"

Two policemen started arguing, and one of them had a very familiar voice. Du Si fixed his eyes and saw that the person was none other than the policeman who accompanied him to investigate the case a few days ago——Xiao Qi.

"My lord, they're talking about you again." Du Heng frowned and said, usually he only talked about it, why did it suddenly become so big this time.

"There must be something strange." Du Si took a quick look, and saw the spectator at the other end. This person was Dian Shi who just clinked glasses at the same table last night-Wu Yilou.

"What should we do?" Du Heng asked anxiously.

"I can't show up. Once I show my face, I will get Wu Yilou's note..." Du Simeng started to retreat. Although it was a bit timid to do so, it was the best way now, "Let's go."

Du Si pulled Du Heng up, turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, isn't this Mrs. Du, you also come to the restaurant for dinner."

Sun Ping walked in from the other side with a smile, bowed his waist and walked to Du Si's side.

These confident words successfully drew the attention of everyone in the restaurant, and now Du Si couldn't leave even if he wanted to.

"Catcher Sun." Du Si's face darkened, causing Sun Ping to hesitate.

Du Heng stood aside, very disturbed.

"What a coincidence, why are you here?" Du Si suddenly smiled, and immediately resolved the doubts in Sun Ping's heart.

"Yeah, what a coincidence." Sun Ping smiled and winked at Xiao Qi.

Wang Qi seemed to react, and quickly shouted at Du Si.

"My lord, Detective Wei said behind your back that you are a poor man!"

As soon as this remark came out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, the smile on Sun Ping's face gradually spread, and some people went straight to Du Si with undisguised malice.

Only then did Du Si realize that the results of his previous efforts did not seem to be as good as he imagined.

"..." Wang Qi looked at Du Si, and suddenly realized that what he said was wrong, but it was too late.

Du Heng pinched the corner of his clothes uneasily. He wanted to do something, but he was just a little servant, so what could he do?

At this time, there was a sound of bowls and chopsticks, which was really loud.

"As the saying goes, one's heart must be solid, and one's heart must be empty. Everyone knows what your lord has done." Liu Er stood up and said coldly.

"Liu Er, what do you mean?!" The person arguing with Xiao Qi said in shame and indignation.

"I just found out about a theft case in Longhua County the day before yesterday, and it was solved by Mr. Du. I personally think that Mr. Du is an upright person..." Liu Er sneered, and glanced at the red-faced police officer, "It's not like some people, there is no real truth. , do something shameful!"

"you!"

"Who is making noise here—"

A middle-aged man in a dark green robe appeared at the gate of the dining hall, and everyone immediately saluted and said, "I have seen the county magistrate."

The county magistrate ignored him, he walked up to Du Si and said eagerly, "Du Si, the county magistrate told you to come over, let's go."

Du Si glanced at Liu Er, and then went to the house where the county magistrate lived.

The county magistrate's house is next to the flower hall. Du Si hurried over, and before he stepped through the gate, he saw Zhu Zhixian standing beside the rockery.

Zhuzhi County is in the age of forty, the county magistrate is named Zhao Yishui, the master book and county lieutenant are named Liu Cheng and Jia Xing, and the canon history seen today is Wu Yilou.

When Zhu Zhixian saw Du Si, he beckoned him to come over. Du Si ran over and watched him play with flowers and plants.

"Can you think of a good time?" Zhu Zhixian asked.

"It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day, and it's better to hit the sun than today. You can start now." Du Si said modestly.

"Today is too hasty... In my opinion, let's do it tomorrow."

"Thank you magistrate." Du Si hurriedly bowed.

"Du Si, how many people do you need to bring with you when you go this time? When you arrive in Linshui County, write a letter and send it back to Longhua County; remember, don't try to be brave in everything. Do you understand?"

"Du Si understands, thank you magistrate for teaching."

Zhu Songshan nodded and waved to Du Si, "If there is nothing to do, you can step back."

"Yes, the villain will leave."

Du Si walked out of Zhu Songshan's residence, and a person walked out from behind the door. This person was the county magistrate Zhao Yishui. He walked towards Zhu Songshan and asked cautiously.

"Magistrate, can you send him?"

"...a dead horse is a living horse doctor. Besides, there is a prefect behind Du Si's back, so there must be no problem."

Seeing that Zhu Songshan was vacillating, Zhao Yishui didn't ask any further questions.

"Du Yongqiu's son...will he be the same as him?" Zhu Songshan breathed out and walked slowly back to the house.

Zhao Yishui stopped where he was, and said the three words 'Du Yongqiu' straight from his mouth. After a while, the corners of his lips raised a strange arc.

After Du Si walked out of Zhu Songshan's house, he kept thinking about the magistrate's words in his mind, and his intuition told him that this trip would not be ordinary, and a surge of enthusiasm rushed into his heart. Even so, he was still eager to contact the case.

Tomorrow he was leaving Longhua County, the county magistrate ordered him to take a few people there, and who should he bring?

Du Si secretly decided on a few candidates, and immediately set out to persuade them.

After working all afternoon, Du Si was sweating profusely, and now he was the last one.

Du Si waited patiently until Chen Shi, the night had already begun, and the night sky was full of stars. At this time, a tall figure quietly came to Du Si's courtyard, but had no intention of entering.

Du Si pushed open the courtyard door just in time, and walked in front of the man.

"I have something to ask." Du Si met his black pupils like ink, swallowed and said, "The magistrate ordered me to go to Linshui County to assist the case. Are you free and come with me?"

The air seemed to stop flowing, and Du Si didn't know how long he waited until the moment Jing Heng nodded, countless joys bloomed in his heart, which made him extremely excited.

Before Du Si fell asleep, he thought about the case described by the county magistrate before falling asleep. In his dream, he had come to Linshui County to find the missing woman, and everything went well.

On the second day at Mao shi, several people were ready to go, waiting in front of the official gate for the carriage to pick them up.

"Master, did you call the wrong person? How could it be him?"

Du Heng pointed at Inspector Sun with a disgusted look on his face.

"Be careful what you say, little baby, I can hear everything!" Inspector Sun raised his head and chest, "Master Zhixian ordered me to assist Mr. Bai... Mr. Du in investigating the case. This is a great joy!"

"Captain Sun, be careful in your words and deeds..." Captain Li hurriedly pulled Sun Ping back and whispered.

Du Si turned his head silently. If Sun Ping knew that he had lied to him, I don't know how he would react.

Du Si called Du Heng, Sun Ping, Li Shun, Wang Qi, Liu Er, and Jing Heng, a total of seven people, squeezed together just enough to fit in a carriage, this is also the best match in his heart.

"Here we come." Jing Heng reminded.

Everyone looked at the corner of the excuse, and saw a blue-topped carriage slowly driving towards here, extremely light.
