After arranging things, Lin Haoran planned to go back to the mansion, and Shen Liuye and the others saw him off at the door, their eyes revealing respect.

Lin Haoran did not have the habit of taking the official bridge, so he walked slowly on the street with the tiger girl, enjoying the tranquility of this street. The ancient city under his rule was noticeably more lively than before, with more shops lining the streets.

Especially in the City God Temple, there are two troupes every night, and many small traders are shouting and selling there, which is really a night of fish and dragon dance.

The tiger girl was wearing a cyan catcher dress, her face was red at this time, and her beautiful big eyes were shining brightly, because she was holding a small thing called a pocket watch in her hand.

I came to the restaurant to look for my brother on a temporary basis, but I got this big benefit, and Mr. Simon gave her this magical thing. For this magical thing that can "tick" sound, she immediately can't put it down, as if she has picked up a treasure.

In the past, she thought that the soybean-sized flame of the oil lamp was magical, but gradually she found that there are too many magical things in this world, and there are countless of them.

"Brother, why does this thing keep ringing?" The tiger girl asked, holding a pocket watch with a chain, looking up curiously.

"It's not right to say it rings all the time! If you don't wind it in a few days, the watch won't ring and the needle will stop turning! Lin Haoran shook her head and pointed out the mistake in her words.

"That's pretty good, too!" The tiger girl's love continued undiminished, and then she blinked her beautiful big eyes and asked in a crisp voice: "Brother, can this pocket watch really see the hour?" What do you think of the hour? ”

"Didn't I teach you just now?" When Lin Haoran heard this, he said helplessly.

Hu Niu frowned, stood up and said in a complaining tone: "You said it too fast just now, I didn't even remember it!" And this thing is so complicated, you only teach it once, how can I do it so quickly? ”

"Go back and teach again!" Lin Haoran's footsteps did not stop, and he dealt with it casually.

"Brother, can't you teach it now?" Hu Niu looked at him and didn't stop, and also followed.

"No way!" Lin Haoran knew that the tiger girl was urgent, and deliberately hung her appetite.

"Then you carry me back!" Hu Niu put the pocket watch in her arms, and one hurried forward, jumping up with her body facing up, and with a beautiful throat locking movement, her body hung on Lin Haoran's back.

Terrible!

Ah Li and others, who followed behind the brother and sister, saw this scene and praised the tiger girl one after another.

Lin Haoran didn't like it, he only felt suffocated for a while, and then he had difficulty breathing, and then complained with difficulty: "You belong to a monkey?" As he spoke, he helplessly held her thighs and carried the girl on her back.

The tiger girl's face was full of smiles, her eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and she was shaking her calves proudly, and she liked the feeling of being carried.

Oh!

The little golden monkey seemed to know that these words were prejudiced against their monkeys, and immediately roared at Lin Haoran. In essence, Lin Haoran almost shot Xiaojin a while ago, and it was still angry with Lin Haoran.

"What a refinement!"

Lin Haoran looked at Xiao Jin, and suddenly felt bitter again.

Despite his refusal, Tiger Niu gave her a serious lesson when he put the pocket watch in front of him.

No matter how the times change, the watch hands are spinning, and the time marked is also traceable, which is naturally difficult for Lin Haoran.

It is worth mentioning that pocket watches of this era only have one hand, so there will be a certain amount of error.

The tiger girl is actually very smart, and after Lin Haoran's explanation, she also knows how to use this pocket watch to confirm the time, and her interest in this thing has become stronger.

Back at the mansion, Sun Jixiang immediately greeted him and reported a message: "The sub-patrol road has arrived at the post station in the north of the city, and it will be at the mansion tomorrow!" ”

Lin Haoran's brows furrowed slightly, this Master Diao was obviously coming for his son-in-law, so he ordered: "Arrange that Mr. Diao to the Yin Hotel!" ”

After this torture, Lin Haoran's anger also disappeared a lot. After all, they are all mixed in the officialdom, although he doesn't have to be afraid of that Diao Da, but he doesn't want to make the relationship too stiff.

Back in the back house, because the weather was cold at night, he didn't choose to work in the cold signing room, but chose to go back to the room in the back house, where a charcoal fire had already burned.

After Lin Haoran dealt with some work, he also opened the file of "Cao Xiucai's Wife Murder Case", but he didn't see any grievances.

Cao Xiaju's sister-in-law Zhao died in the well, and the Wuchuan magistrate preliminarily concluded that Zhao committed suicide. It's just that Zhao's mother's family does not agree with this judgment, claiming that it is impossible for their daughter to commit suicide, and she will go back to her mother's house to learn needlework during the day, and she must have been killed by Cao Xiucai.

This incident caused a lot of movement in Wuchuan County, and there were different opinions, so it attracted the attention of the adults of the sub-patrol road.

The Lord of the Patrol Road took Zhao Fu's words and determined that Zhao had no motive to commit suicide, and also characterized the case as homicide. After some investigation, Cao Xiucai was imprisoned and severely interrogated.

In the end, Cao Xiucai confessed to the facts of the crime, and confessed that he suspected his wife of adultery with others, so he knocked his wife unconscious and threw her into his own well.

According to this dossier, all this is logical, and there is nothing out of the ordinary about this sub-tour. What's more, Cao Xiucai has already confessed, why should Cao Xiaju still complain?

Now Cao Xiaju went to Guangzhou Mansion to complain, and then came back here to find him, which seems to be more out of unwillingness.

"What are you doing here without playing with your pocket watch?" Lin Haoran found that there was a small creature next to him, so he said helplessly.

Hu Niu raised her bright eyes and said crisply as a matter of course: "Brother, I want to help you!" I asked Cao Xiaju in the afternoon, and she said that her brother was wronged, and her brother was bent into a trick by that Diao adult! ”

"People are brothers and sisters, of course they are towards him and her brother, you are careful of being deceived by her!" Lin Haoran glanced at the tiger girl helplessly, and found that this girl was too easy to trust people.

"No, she's telling the truth, I can feel it," Tiger Girl said with certainty as she met his gaze.

Lin Haoran was quite helpless, he didn't believe in any sixth sense, but he didn't want to argue about this issue, so he stood up and prepared to blow out the lamp and said, "Tiger girl, where are you sleeping tonight?" ”

"I ...... Sleep with you! Tiger Niu hesitated, then walked to the large wooden bed.

Lin Haoran sighed lightly, knowing that he might have to sleep very late tonight. This girl is a curious baby, whether it is a pocket watch or this case, she will inevitably have to get to the bottom of it.
