仵作daily [traveling]

Linshui County deserves to be the most affluent county town in Yong'an County. The buildings here are lined up like chess pieces on a chessboard. Rows of snow-white walls are piled up on both sides. The bluestone slabs under the feet are evenly paved. , blue bricks and black tiles are hidden in the middle, and the four-corner or hexagonal pavilions are looming, decorated with bright red colors.

Every time Du Si crossed a street, he could see bricks and tiles carved with patterns, and there were not a few people wearing silk and satin. They looked serene and at ease.

"Linshui County is as big as three Longhua counties, and is the head of Yong'an County." Sun Ping said from the side.

"Where is the government office?" Du Si carried the letter from Zhuzhi County in his arms, with the official seal on it, which was the proof of his identity.

"The county office is on Pyongyang Street, it's still far away, remember to follow me closely."

Sun Ping took a deep look at Du Si, and then led the way.

Before it was time, many shops opened on both sides of the street. Vendors selling gadgets hung up their items early and found a good location. Some food stalls started to do business. For a while, the strong aroma of food spread across the street. , flowing in all directions.

In this era, the curfew has long been abolished, and people are free to go out no matter it is midnight or dawn. To prevent fugitives from escaping, there are guards at post stations outside the city, and there are even cavalry patrolling between the two places, which is very close.

"My lord, let's go quickly." Du Heng urged.

At first, there were not many people on the streets, but as soon as Wu Shi arrived, residents of Linshui County flocked to it, and the wide streets were filled to the brim.

Sun Ping's figure was gradually submerged in it. Du Si bumped on the carriage for a few days, his footsteps were weak, and he couldn't compete with the flow of people, so he gradually distanced himself from him.

"Catcher Sun! Wait for me—" Xiao Li hurriedly followed Sun Ping.

Wang Qi and Liu Er were together, although they were not close to Sun Ping, they were not far away either.

Only Du Si was rushed to the back of the team by the flow of people, and Du Heng was led by Du Si, sweating profusely.

"My lord, we're going to be unable to keep up with Detective Sun." Du Heng was too small to help, so he had to worry.

"I'll try my best..." Du Si wanted to keep an eye on Du Heng while looking at the letter in his arms, feeling very miserable.

At this moment, Du Heng fell down, and Du Si hurriedly bowed to help him. The two of them were stranded in the crowd, and they were washed away in an instant.

Du Si, who was in the center, opened his eyes wide, and faces with different expressions appeared in front of him, except for the one he was familiar with.

Suddenly, one of the powerful hands held Du Si's arm firmly, and with a little force, Du Si was rescued from the crowd.

There were so many people that Du Si couldn't even see the owner of that hand, and an extremely familiar temperature came, but he couldn't think of it for a moment.

Passers-by passed by, and the tall figure in front of him, Du Si's lips moved, and finally spit out those two words.

"Jing Heng..."

The young man turned his face sideways, the silhouette hidden in the hazy night was extremely deep, only the pair of black pupils were as silent as usual.

"Follow me."

"..."

Du Si suddenly felt an unprecedented tranquility, he walked forward with Jing Heng, every step was extremely firm.

The four people who rushed to Pyongyang Road first stopped. Wang Qi looked back and found that Du Si, Du Heng and Jing Heng were gone.

"Where is Master Du? He was behind us just now, why did he disappear?"

"Take a closer look, is it right next to us..."

Xiao Li looked left and right, and there were very few pedestrians around, and there was no Du Si figure.

"It's over! We lost Master Du!"

Li Shun cried and cried immediately, and he was somewhat similar to the old couple today.

Wang Qi was very excited, turned around and wanted to go back to look for Du Si, but was stopped by Liu Er who was beside him.

"Jing Heng is with Master Du, and will definitely bring him here unharmed."

As soon as Jing Heng was mentioned, Wang Qi actually felt that a big stone was loosened in his heart.

"Catcher Sun, this, this is what to do!" Xiao Li beat his chest and said, grabbing Sun Ping's sleeve and refusing to let go.

"Don't yell, it's giving me a headache." Sun Ping shook off Xiao Li and began to pack his luggage. "Since the matter has come to an end, I will report to the magistrate of Linshui County, and let him decide..."

"My lord is back!"

Wang Qi fixed his eyes and saw a young man beside Du Si, who was the usually indifferent Jing Heng.

"Liu'er, what you said is indeed correct, Jing Heng really brought the lord back."

The three of them moved from far to near, and Detective Sun quickly stopped thinking about entering the government, and stood aside with a cold snort.

"My lord, you're back!" Xiao Li stopped Du Si, "It's really not easy for the villain to wait."

It was getting late now, and the streets and alleys were lit up with bright lights, and the lights were brightly lit for a while, reflecting each other.

"We can't delay any longer, we will go to the government now." Du Si said solemnly, and several people came to the Yamen together.

The county government of Linshui County is much larger than that of Longhua County. The two Yinhong gates made of nanmu are very grand. In the hall, there is righteousness.

Du Si showed the letter to the guard, and soon a county lieutenant in a light green robe came out. He exchanged polite words with everyone, and immediately led them into the yamen.

The county lieutenant's name was Cao Mingde, he had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his eyes were full of energy. He arranged seven people into the wing room and ordered his servants to entertain them.

The arrival of Du Si and his party did not cause an uproar, and the hall servants respected him. There were two people in the wing room, Du Si and Du Heng shared a room, Xiao Li and Sun Ping, Wang Qi and Liu Er shared a room, only the one who came out alone Jing Heng consciously lived in the room next to Du Si.

After dinner, Xiao Li and Sun Ping went to the night market. Hearing that Linshui County is rich in night activities, Wang Qi and Liu Er also wanted to go to open their eyes.

"My lord, are you sure you don't want to go? I heard that there are boulders on the street!" Xiao Qi was eager to move.

"No, I have something important to do." Du Si smiled slowly, "You guys go, don't come back too late."

"Thank you, sir!" Wang Qi pulled Liu Er and left.

Du Heng stood beside Du Si, stretched his neck and looked out, looking yearning.

Du Si patted him on the head and said, "Du Heng, you can go too."

"No, I want to stay with my son..." Du Heng swallowed, pretending to be calm.

"I'm in the government office. Is there a safer place in Linshui County? Go quickly."

"But..." Du Heng was visibly shaken.

"Follow Wang Qi and Liu Er well, don't get lost."

"Thank you, my lord! Brother Wang Qi waited for me—" Du Heng was so happy that he rushed out the door.

Du Si shook his head amusedly, and took out a white paper from the luggage, which was filled with black characters. This was exactly what he wrote after talking with Qi An during the daytime today, and he hadn't fully understood the case yet.

Qi An's teary cheeks seemed to be right in front of his eyes, and the grief emanating from his bones must not be faked. Du Si intuitively believed that the reason for this old couple staying outside the county every day was not just to complain.

The two old men... just want to get justice for their daughter.

Du Si suddenly stood up, put down the pen and paper, got up and went to the county lieutenant's residence.

Under the instructions of the hall servant, Du Si found Cao Mingde, the county captain, and he opened the door like a mountain road without being enthusiastic.

"The villain was ordered by the magistrate Zhu to come to cooperate with the case. I don't know what Master Cao has in mind?"

Du Si bowed and bowed, Cao Mingde didn't see that he was young and despised him, he welcomed Du Si into the room and ordered his servants to serve two cups of hot tea.

"To tell you the truth, I only found a few pieces of evidence, which are the letters between Qi Xuzhen and Liu Wenqing, brother Du, please have a look."

Cao Mingde fetched some letters, Du Si carefully opened them, only to see the first few words, his face flushed dryly.

"This kind of obscenity and gibberish are unsightly. The official has asked Qi An to testify that this is indeed written by Qi Xuzhen, and the evidence is true." Cao Mingde smiled slightly, and continued, "The official has ordered all The county searches for Liu Wenqing, and when the cheating couple is apprehended and brought to justice, the case will be revealed."

Du Si nodded, the county lieutenant did the right thing, but the old couple were pitiful, it was better to ask.

"Master Cao, why are Qi Xuzhen's parents..."

"Brother Du doesn't know something, testimony without conclusive evidence can't explain the problem, in other words, you and I both understand that Qi An loves his daughter dearly, but now that there is evidence of his daughter's affair with others, the case is half closed. "

After finishing speaking, Cao Mingde took a sip of tea, feeling very satisfied.

Du Si said, "Can I take a look at the case?"

Cao Mingde handed over the case file very readily, and Du Si read it carefully, and found that it was extremely meticulous and there were no mistakes.

The case seemed as simple as that.

Du Si bid farewell to Cao Mingde and walked out of the room. When he came out of the corner, he suddenly met Jing Heng who was leaning against the wall.

"Why didn't you go out with Detective Sun?" Du Si was a little puzzled.

"How is the investigation of this case?" Jing Heng asked about the case instead of responding to him.

"Master Cao's work is impeccable, but..." Du Si walked forward facing the moonlight, "I personally think that this case is not as simple as it seems."

Jing Heng was speechless, just followed Du Si behind.

At this time, the night was already deep, and Linshui County fell into a brief darkness before it was midnight, and the light would be restored in a few hours.

Du Heng had already returned to sleep, and Du wanted to record the case, but couldn't bear to wake him up, so in the end, he had to work in Jing Heng's room.

The brush and paper were rubbing against each other very lightly, and a pair of eyes followed Du Si's moving hands, and slowly moved to his serious side face.

Du Si slept very late. After recording what Captain Cao said, he lay down on the table and fell into a deep sleep. A pair of strong hands stretched out to cover his thin back with a coat.
