仵作daily [traveling]

On the second day, Du Heng got a cold and was sick in bed. Du Si went to Zhao Si's house alone to investigate, but he didn't get much.

"Master Du, I want to discuss something with you." Zhao Si took Du Si to the corner of the courtyard and whispered.

"The villain can afford to throw away those few bags of rice, but Li San's family is poor, and there is an eighty-year-old mother on top, the villain is afraid that he can't bear it..."

Zhao Si looked sad, and Du Si patted him on the shoulder and said solemnly.

"Don't worry, within four days, I will definitely catch the thief and restore your and Li San's innocence."

"Really?" Zhao Si was surprised.

"Of course it's true. There's no reason in the world for a wicked person to be in power and to blame an innocent person."

Du Si's words successfully comforted Zhao Si, and he immediately smiled, and reached out his hands to grope in his sleeves, as if he was looking for something.

Du Si looked at it and suddenly understood.

"My lord, this is a little thought from the villain..."

"Zhao Si, absolutely not!"

Under Du Si's strong request, Zhao Si finally took back the silver.

"Lord Du, you put all your heart and soul into it, the villain really can't bear it." Zhao Si knelt down, and Ren Dusi refused to get up no matter what he said.

"Zhao Si, why are you doing this? It is my duty to solve problems for the folks and elders. How can I accept this?"

Du Si said seriously, his black pupils were so bright that Zhao Si couldn't move his eyes.

"Please hurry up, I still have to uphold the official duties, don't obstruct the official duties."

Zhao Si was helped up by Du Si, his eyes were hazy, and two lines of tears had flowed down his cheeks.

"I told my lord to read a joke." Zhao Si hurriedly wiped away his tears.

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring the thief to justice."

Du Si's determined face was a little more resolute, and he didn't look like a young man in his prime.

The two walked out of Zhao Si's house. Du Si raised his legs and was about to go elsewhere when a strong figure caught his attention.

This person is just one of the weakest, if he is to say what attracts people, it is his excessive speed and strength.

Du Si couldn't help but stop and observe the weak man carefully.

He seemed to be very familiar with this courtyard, and based on his wanton walking in the courtyard, Du Si thought that his relationship with Zhao Si must be unusual.

"Master Du, do you have any questions?" Zhao Si came over and said, "Speaking of which, my lord once told me to pay attention to the people walking around the courtyard. These people are weak and have excellent reputation, so there should be no problem."

"...That poor name and strength are the most compatible with you." Du Si pointed at that person.

"Your Excellency is really clever. His name is Zhang Qi. He has read books before, has a little ink in his stomach, and has a good ability to keep track of the goods. He shipped all the wine." Zhao Si was full of praise.

"The name is Zhang Qi..." Du Si pondered, "Since he has studied, why does he still do this hard work?"

"It's strange to say, and the villain is also quite puzzled..." Zhao Si thought for a while, and then said.

"Everyone has his own aspirations. Although he has some talents, he is also happy to do so."

Du Si smiled and said nothing more.

The two parted at this point, and Du Si hurried back to the Yamen, wanting to find Xiao Qi to inquire about the south of the city.

"Wang Qi is going to patrol the west of the city early this morning, and he won't be back anytime soon." Detective Sun snapped his mouth and showed Du Si an unexpected person.

"The yamen is a bit busy today, and many brothers can't get away. The county captain and the lord Dianshi went to Linshui County with the magistrate. I think so; let Brother Jing Heng accompany you to solve the case."

Inspector Sun didn't wait for Du Si's consent, so he turned around and went to Jing Heng. Speaking of which, Inspector Sun was the most experienced officer. Although Du Si had a higher position than him, he knew some truth. A few verbal quarrels will not exceed the rules.

But when Jing Heng came, Du Si didn't have time to think about these things... So, things developed like this.

Du Si was walking on the street, his body was stiff, his hands and feet were synchronized, followed by a tall and handsome young man, the atmosphere was very strange.

"..." Du Si glanced at the silent Jing Heng, hesitantly said, "Brother Jing Heng, I don't have any serious problems here, you can..."

"My lord wants to find Lai Si in the south of the city. I know where he lives."

A beautiful and magnetic voice had a strange power, which suppressed the impetuousness in Du Si's heart.

"My lord, it's not too late, please go." Jing Heng urged Du Si to move forward without any intention of procrastinating.

"Okay..." Du Si only felt that Jing Heng's adult called him guilty in his heart.

No matter how you look at it, Jing Heng is more like his boss...

The soldiers are extremely fast, and the speed of the two is faster than before. In less than an hour, they came from Zhao Si's family in the north of the city to the south of the city.

The south of the city is desolate, much worse than the north of the city. The old and the weak are not in the minority here. He watched helplessly, but didn't bother to help.

Du Si looked at Jing Heng's cold face, and felt unlucky in his heart.

The two stopped in a remote area, and Jing Heng was facing a dilapidated courtyard.

"Lai Si lives here, please come in, my lord."

Du Si stepped forward and knocked on the door. After waiting for a long time, he heard footsteps.

Behind the door was a face full of flesh. A man about the size of a six-year-old child shrank behind the door, staring at Du Si with a pair of triangular hanging eyes, looking back and forth, very vigilant.

"Who are you?" His voice was extremely rough and unbearable.

"My name is Du Si. Today, I was ordered by the government to investigate the happiness index of the people in the south of the city, and implement a comprehensive well-off living standard..."

Du Si's words made Lai Si dizzy and his eyes dazed. He rubbed his head, and the creases on his face were a little more than before.

Jing Heng squinted his eyes, watching Du Si silently.

"Is it convenient for me to go in now?" Du Si asked with a smile.

"Please, please come in." Although Lai Si didn't understand, he understood that this was someone from the government, so he stepped aside again and again to let the two of them in.

Du Si opened the door and walked into Lai Si's house.

Lai's family was barren, and there was only a pitiful little pagoda tree in the yard. Except for a handcart and farm tools in the corner of the yard, there was nothing else.

Du Si went to the front of the car and looked at it carefully.

The body of this hand frame is eight feet long, and the handlebars are tilted upwards. In order to prevent the goods from falling, there is a wooden base under the frame, so it will not fall down no matter whether it is running or stopping.

Du Si observed carefully, and couldn't help squatting down to measure the size of the wheels; the diameter of the wheels was about five inches, and the width of the wheels was less than three fingers, all of which were normal sizes.

He looked again, and when he was about to get up, he saw a strange color. He saw a few traces of crimson mixed in the black mud stained on the wheels. Du Si buckled the black mud behind him, and some traces of crimson mud gradually faded away. unfolded.

Although the weather has entered spring, it is also cold. The mud is still moist to the touch, and it has only been used recently.

Du Si's eyes and pupils moved slightly, and he wiped off the mud on his hands. Then he saw that the edge of the frame was also covered with a lot of mud. Du Si moved to the front of the frame, only the front of the edge was covered with mud, and the It's red mud.

Lai Si groped his palm back and forth, looking around behind Du Si.

"Lai Si, you are doing a good job with this car, you must often use it to transport goods."

Lai Si hurried over. He was four feet long and had short limbs. He kicked his legs hard, but there was no response to the car.

"Yes, your lord is right. The villain often uses it to carry things. No, I only used it a few days ago, and the wheels are covered with mud."

A careful light flashed in Du Si's eyes, and he smiled again, "Where do you often go to get stuff?"

"It's on Longhua Avenue." Lai Si replied hastily.

After Du Si asked some unimportant things, he didn't go into the room to check. Before he left, he suddenly smelled a familiar fragrance.

"You have a good life, you can eat meat."

"If you can make it through, this meat was given by someone else."

Du Si exchanged some pleasantries, and finally left.

"You two officials, please go slowly—" Lai Si rubbed his hands, sending Du Si away with a smile.

Du Si went out to the south of the city and went straight to Longhua Avenue, Jing Heng was very close behind him, seeing Du Si in such a hurry, he didn't ask any questions.

After walking for about one stick of incense, the surrounding scenery became pleasant and the houses improved. Du Si stood panting on the avenue and looked up.

The sky was full of snow and white, and apricot blossoms bloomed, stinging Du Si's eyes.

"My lord, have you discovered something?" Jing Heng's calm voice came.

"Lai Si is lying..." Du Si turned around suddenly and asked eagerly, "Do you know where there is red mud in Longhua County?"

Jing Heng shook his head, and Du Si began to ask some passers-by.

"May I ask where the red mud grows in Longhua County?" "I don't know."

"May I ask where there is red mud in the county?" "I don't know."

"..."

Jing Heng looked at Du Si's extremely focused expression and said nothing.

After Du Si asked about dozens of people, he finally got the letter.

"The place where the red mud is made is very remote. It seems to be in the west of the city. The roads there are not good and few people go there."

Du Si and Jing Heng hurried to the west of the city. Du Si asked a few more people in the west of the city before learning the exact location.

It turns out that there are red mud not only in the west of the city, but also in other places, and the area occupied cannot be underestimated. Looking closely, they are distributed in the east, west, north, south, and there is a faint sense of connection. However, there are few people living there, and Du Si asked all the way. It is back to the north of the city.

Apart from Longhua Avenue, there are still many trails to walk on. Although roads covered with red mud are rare, they are not impossible to find.

After busy several times, Du Si finally found the red mud in front of a residence.

Jing Heng followed Du Si to search along the road. Du Si stopped and stopped, not knowing what he was looking for, and Jing Heng followed behind him patiently.

Du Si searched for an unknown amount of time, and finally found what he was thinking of—the traces left by the string of wheels. Du Si bent down to measure it, and the size was actually the same size as that of Lai Sijia's cart.

"Go up here, turn a few corners and you will be where Zhao Si and Li San are..." Du Si said to himself, and began to walk down along the footprints.

Therefore, there are very few people in the place, and the wheel marks are more and more obvious, but this road is more difficult than the south of the city. Du Si fell several times in a short while, Jing Heng had to support him, so that Du Si could continue to investigate the case.

Du Si moved his legs tirelessly until the sun went down and the birds returned to the forest before he finished the journey.

"It's not too far from the south of the city. If you continue walking, you can reach the fourth Lai's house..." Du Si said, and found a strange object.

A large piece of light-colored cloth was hung on the branch of a tree beside it. It was rough in workmanship, but it was familiar to Du Si.

Du Si wrapped it in a white cloth and carefully packed it into clothes.

"My lord, is Lai Si suspected?" Jing Heng suddenly said.

"It's not just suspected, he is one of the thieves. There are so many suspicious points on Lai Si that I am too embarrassed to expose him face to face!"

Du Si turned his head, his eyes seemed to contain thousands of stars, which were astonishingly bright.

"How do you say that?" Jing Heng's eyes moved slightly, maybe it was because the setting sun was too bright, but there seemed to be some warmth in the young man's eyes.

"Wait for me to tell you one by one."

Du Si and Jing Heng came back together, neither of them noticed, they got along like friends for many years, without gap.

Street peddlers, and farmers coming and going returning with farm tools, the apricot blossoms are gorgeous, and layers of white petals are falling.

The red sunset filled the two of them, and soon, they gradually melted into the vast crowd.

The author has something to say: a friendly reminder; there are three more chapters in the theft case

By the way, I didn't get into metaphysics last night, Sang Xin
