Outside a dilapidated thatched house in the eastern outskirts stood a group of chattering people.
"How is it? Did you find anything?" Tang Xiaotian and Mu Jiayu said when they saw Ji Hexuan who was doing an autopsy on the man's body beside the well.
Ji Hexuan squatted on the ground, rolled up the inspection equipment and got up: "The deceased's face was gray and white, his lips were livid, and his lower body was incontinent. It can be concluded that the death was caused by his own sudden illness. I have verified the wounds on his head, chest, and abdomen with the light-white method. Not fatal enough."
Tang Xiaotian raised his hand and wiped his chin, "Sudden illness... grey, white, livid, myocardial infarction?
"You mean he has a heart attack?"
Mu Jiayu looked at the thoughtful person beside her: "What is a heart attack?"
Tang Xiaotian immediately realized that there was no such thing as myocardial infarction in ancient times: "I heard from merchants who went abroad to sell it that this kind of situation is called myocardial infarction."
"Are there any other discoveries?" Mu Jiayu asked Ji Hexuan eagerly.
"There is also a female corpse in the room. It seems that she committed suicide by taking poison. There is no external injury on her body, and there is no poison inside."
"My lord, the villain is just here to ask for debts. I really didn't kill him."
Mu Jiayu and Tang Xiaotian heard the reputation and looked around, only to see a short and tall man in gray and black being interrogated by the yamen servants.
Tang Xiaotian stepped forward: "When did you find the body?"
The man glanced at Tang Xiaotian: "My lord, the villain came to ask for a debt today. After knocking for a long time, no one came out to answer the door. Then he asked the boy to kick the door open."
"You said you want a debt, but the two dead people in the house owe you a debt?"
The man said anxiously: "No, it's their son Zhong Zhi who owes us 200 taels of silver in the gambling house, and he just refuses to pay it back. He has no choice but to ask for the debt."
Hearing what the man said, Tang Xiaotian remembered that when he checked the files in modern times, he saw many things about killing his parents because of debts. "Which casino are you from?" Tang Xiaotian looked at the man without showing any emotion and said.
"Go back to my lord, Pingle Casino."
"Come on, now take me to meet your supervisor"
Along the way, the man was detained by two government servants and locked his arms, leading Tang Xiaotian and Mu Jiayu back to the casino.
"Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi, hurry up and ask the second boss to come out."
The boy in coarse linen at the entrance of the gambling house watched his elder brother being escorted back by the government, and after hearing what he said, he hurried up to the second floor to call the second boss of the gambling shop.
In the private room on the second floor of Pingle Casino, a "man" in a white gown with an embroidered lightning logo on the sleeve was standing on a chair, humming a little tune and eating grapes.
"Second Master, there are people from the government downstairs looking for you." Xiaoyi leaned over his luggage and said after entering the door.
The man glanced at Xiao Yi who was standing at the door, spat out the grape seeds in his mouth, stood up and said, "We neither steal nor rob, how did we attract people from the government?"
"Second Master, it's Eldest Young Master...Yesterday I took the account book of the gambling house and found that there was a debt, so I asked my elder brother to ask for the debt." Xiao Yi knelt down and said tremblingly to the person on the bed.
"Okay, I see." After saying that, the man in brocade clothes put on his shoes and socks, got up and went downstairs.
Downstairs, Tang Xiaotian and Mu Jiayu followed the crowd into the backyard of the casino.
"Adults are here to welcome you." The long-clothed man opened the curtain at the connection between the lobby and the backyard, and said while walking, clasping his hands.
Tang Xiaotian turned around when he heard the sound, and couldn't help sizing him up when he saw the man approaching. "Willow brows and peach blossom eyes, not a rough body like a man's, wait...how come there is... a famous modern trendy logo on the sleeve, is it a coincidence?"
"My lord, you're welcome. We're just here to learn about the murder case of the Zhong family."
"Oh? The Zhong family, the Zhong family who owes us 200 taels of silver in the gambling house?"
"Exactly."
"My lord, it's cold outside, we said inside, please come in." The man raised his hand to invite everyone to enter the main hall and take a seat.
"My lord, Pingle Gambling Shop is doing serious business, if it doesn't steal or rob, how can it be related to the murder case?"
"Maybe talk about your dispute with the Zhong family?"
"That gambler Zhong Zhi has already been blacklisted in our gambling house. He is physically strong but not in a hurry. He just wants to get rich overnight by gambling. But our gambling house has an unwritten rule. People are prohibited from re-entering, and they will not ask for debts."
"Oh, I wonder if my lord can explain why this big brother appeared at the gate of Zhong's house early in the morning to beat you up and ask for debts?" Tang Xiaotian looked at the man in front of him, the more he looked at him, the more suspicious he became, and every word he said was in line with his modern tone almost.
"Of course, Brother Wang was entrusted by my elder brother to ask for money. It is inconvenient for the family to disclose the rest of the facts, but the villain can guarantee that Brother Wang will never be that vicious person. The man in the long coat raised his hand to write as an apology.
Tang Xiaotian nodded: "Let him go."
"Wait, how do you determine that he is not the murderer, and how can you let him go just because of a single word?" Mu Jiayu stood up to stop him.
Tang Xiaotian looked up at Mu Jiayu, who was showing a slight anger, and said softly, "Trust me."
"Both of you, take this man back to the government office and wait for Mr. Wei to inquire in person." Mu Jiayu ignored Tang Xiaotian's words and turned to the government servant.
Tang Xiaotian turned his head in embarrassment and said to the man: "I don't know the name of the young master, but I still need the assistance of the young master in this case."
"Small things, I'll leave it to Zhu Chang." Zhu Chang said calmly with his hands on both sides of the chair.
"Oh, I don't know where the games played in the gambling workshop of the young masters come from. I am very interested." Tang Xiaotian asked nonchalantly.
A difference flashed in Zhu Chang's eyes: "Oh, it's Dou Dizhu and Mahjong, both of which are created by villains. If adults are interested, you might as well try two.
Looking at Tang Xiaotian's interested expression, Mu Jiayu had an idea in her heart: "Yes, Captain Tang is proficient in all kinds of mundane things, why don't you show your hands to everyone today."
After listening to Zhu Chang's words, Tang Xiaotian had an answer in his heart, but when he heard Mu Jiayu's words, he felt a ray of doubt in his heart, how could this person know so well without knowing Yuanshen.
"That's not necessary. If you are willing to make friends with me, you might as well come to my house to learn about Sichuan mahjong and playing bastard together in the future. Tang Xiaotian got up and left, ignoring Mu Jiayu who followed behind with a strange look.
"Come here, go and inquire about this arrester, the sooner the better." Zhu Chang exchanged for a follower, thinking that this person should also come from time travel just like himself, wishing to become friends with him immediately.
Tang Xiaotian was about to go home after searching for nothing for a day. Seeing that Mu Jiayu was still following him, he said, "Miss Mu, I'm going home, won't you come back?"
"I'll go and see Zitong Ziyun, you don't need to worry about me." After saying that, Mu Jiayu walked towards Tang Xiaotian's house.
As soon as the two arrived at the door, Tang Xiaotian saw Miss Ling'er standing at the door holding a suit of clothes. "Why is Miss Ling'er here?"
Ling'er glanced at Mu Jiayu who was standing by the side and said with a smile to Tang Xiaotian: These are the clothes I just made for you, and I will take the dirty clothes back and wash them for you. "
"This...you don't have to trouble Miss Ling'er, your life is not easy, how could I ask you to handle those trivial things for me." Tang Xiaotian felt Ling'er's admiration for the original body and subconsciously refused.
"Where are you talking? It wasn't always like this before. Take it quickly." Seeing that the other party wanted to refuse, Ling'er stuffed the clothes into Tang Xiaotian's arms and entered the room alone.
"Oh, I didn't expect that a girl like you who is greedy for power and sex would have such affection for you." Mu Jiayu threw off her whip and walked into the house, leaving Tang Xiaotian alone at the door.
In the room, Tang Xiaotian took out an old clothes from his original body and handed it to Ling'er who was handling two children at the square table: "Miss Ling'er, you don't have to do this kind of rough work for me in the future, you also have business to attend to."
Ling'er felt a sense of loss in her heart, suddenly she didn't need to do things she was used to, so she felt bitter and uncomfortable.
Ling'er: "Don't say that, you are so busy living alone in this case, it is inevitable that you can't take care of yourself, besides, these two children also need someone to take care of them, I'm just sharing the burden for you.
Hearing that Mu Jiayu was sitting on the chair, "Tui'er, you will come and take care of Zitong Ziyun from tomorrow on."
Tweety looked at her princess differently: "Yes, miss." How could this be arguing with others.
"It's getting late, Miss Ling'er, let me take you back."
"it is good."
Looking at the two people who went out together, Mu Jiayu felt an inexplicable fire burning in her heart: "Tweety!" Mu Jiayu patted the table and said.
"Miss."
"Tomorrow, go to the toothmaid and buy me a maid and a boy to take care of the two children for you!"
Seeing her princess who hasn't made such a big fuss in 19 years, Tweety said helplessly, "Yes, Miss."
Not long after Tang Xiaotian came home, he saw a large group of people carrying all kinds of furniture to his home.
"Wait, what are you doing?" Tang Xiaotian grabbed a worker and asked.
"Moving furniture, this wife bought a lot of furniture in our store."
"Ma'am?" Tang Xiaotian entered the house and saw Mu Jiayu pointing at the workers moving the furniture to various places.
"What are you doing."
"Can't you see? I'm having people move things."
"This is my home." Seeing the other party's unreasonable appearance, Tang Xiaotian had a splitting headache.
"I bought it for Zitong Ziyun, not for you."
"I didn't say I was going to adopt them."
"Catcher Tang, are you willing to let their brother and sister fall into this life without relatives and no reason? Do you want them to become idle people like you?" Mu Jiayu turned around and said to Tang Xiaotian with a little anger.
Helpless, he could only go back to his room and sulk. "It's not impossible to adopt them, but I can't even afford to support myself now, let alone two children. Sitting on the bed, Tang Xiaotian began to think about how to get a large profit without investing a lot of money.
......
Early the next morning, Tang Xiaotian and his brother and sister were eating the freshly bought breakfast in the main house.
"Zitong, are you familiar with the forests in Pingyang?"
"I know, what does brother want to do?"
"In this way, after you feed Ziyun the medicine during the day, you will go to the mountains in the suburbs to pick up some thicker branches for me. You don't need to do too much. Wait for me at home at night, and I will teach you how to make fine ink pens."
"What is a fine ink pen?" Ding Zitong looked at Tang Xiaotian suspiciously while covering the hot porridge in the bowl on the table with both hands.
Tang Xiaotian thought about how to explain it for a long time: "Well...it's a kind of writing tool in my hometown. You will know its usefulness when we make it."
"Good brother, then I will go back today."
"it is good."
Having said that, Tang Xiaotian began to draw a grand blueprint for his sideline business in addition to his main job as a police officer.
"How is it? Did you find anything?" Tang Xiaotian and Mu Jiayu said when they saw Ji Hexuan who was doing an autopsy on the man's body beside the well.
Ji Hexuan squatted on the ground, rolled up the inspection equipment and got up: "The deceased's face was gray and white, his lips were livid, and his lower body was incontinent. It can be concluded that the death was caused by his own sudden illness. I have verified the wounds on his head, chest, and abdomen with the light-white method. Not fatal enough."
Tang Xiaotian raised his hand and wiped his chin, "Sudden illness... grey, white, livid, myocardial infarction?
"You mean he has a heart attack?"
Mu Jiayu looked at the thoughtful person beside her: "What is a heart attack?"
Tang Xiaotian immediately realized that there was no such thing as myocardial infarction in ancient times: "I heard from merchants who went abroad to sell it that this kind of situation is called myocardial infarction."
"Are there any other discoveries?" Mu Jiayu asked Ji Hexuan eagerly.
