Chapter 80: Catching the Thief and Catching the Stolen Goods
Jing Mo felt a little believable at this time, and said: "Your words are really credible, I should congratulate you." However, how do you catch a thief? Where is the stolen jewelry? I'm still at a loss for words. Now that you have a trace of it, why don't you go and retrieve it at once, lest it cause any trouble. ”
Nie Xiaoman nodded: "The stolen goods I want to get are already guarded, so it's very safe and don't worry." ”
But Jingmo was even more surprised after hearing this, he didn't understand the mystery at all, and was about to inquire, when suddenly Wei Pu walked into the study and reported that a guest had come. When Jing Mo walked to the hall to look, in addition to seeing that the two guests had already entered the hall, one was Pang Shangjiu Pang Dianshi who met in the Li Mansion yesterday, and the other was not an acquaintance, and from the outside, he might also be a public in the yamen.
Jing Mo was very strange, and he didn't understand the meaning of these two people at all. Nie Xiaoman also came out of the study at this time, asked the name of the guest, and learned that the other person was the new general judge of Jinling, named Tong Meng.
The reason why the two came to find Xiaoman was because they got a report from Feng Yunqi, claiming that the thief was not "flying in the sky" himself, and that he had found another main culprit, so Feng Yunqi asked to remove the police on guard. The general judge didn't believe it, so he came to consult Nie Xiaoman to confirm whether this was true or not.
Gu Tongju said to Nie Xiaoman: "Lord Nie, what Feng Yunqi said seems to be well-founded, but I still can't believe it, he recommended the adult as proof, saying that the adult agrees, so he took the liberty to visit, please instruct what to do?" Feng Yunqi's words are really credible, is it reliable? ”
Nie Xiaoman smiled and said: "Master Gu is too humble, Feng Yunqi's words are not wrong, this theft was not done by "flying into the sky", now that he has asked to remove the guard's arrest, he will do it." ”
Pang Dianshi interjected: "However, he also said that another main culprit has been found, can this be believed?" ”
Nie Xiaoman asked with some surprise, "Did he tell you that he has already won the main culprit?" ”
Pang Shangjiu said: "Although he didn't say that he had been caught, he thought he was sure." ”
Nie Xiaoman suddenly smiled at Su Jingmo and said, "Jingmo, you can rest assured, I have already started first, and I will probably not be taken advantage of by others, you don't have to worry about me anymore, haha!" ”
He turned back to the two guests and said, "I really told you that although this case is very mysterious, it is about to be closed." You might as well revoke the guards first, and when the case is revealed, you can repay the merits in peace!" After saying that, he got up to see off the guests.
After listening to Nie Xiaoman's words, the two guests were a little skeptical, but it was inconvenient not to leave, so they had to leave reluctantly.
Nie Xiaoman pushed Jing Mo's shoulder and said, "Jing Mo, let's have breakfast first, and after dinner, you can help me solve the case, I guess your curiosity is about to be satisfied." ”
Jing Mo was very happy when he heard this, and promised to help him solve the case, so he immediately had breakfast. When he was about to finish eating, Li Shicheng suddenly came in and said that his father had asked Nie Xiaoman to discuss something.
Nie Xiaoman immediately threw down the small half of the Hu cake in his hand and said, "Yes, yes, Jingmo, have you eaten enough?" We set off at once. ”
Jing Mo agreed again and again, straightened his clothes and went out. When he was about to arrive at the Li Mansion, Nie Xiaoman suddenly flashed to the back alley to take a look, and then turned back. Nie Xiaoman leaned into Jing Mo's ear and said, "The messengers at the back door have really been evacuated!" ”
The three of them walked into the Li Mansion together, and Li Wenchang greeted them in the main hall house. Nie Xiaoman stepped forward and exchanged a few perfunctory words with Li Wenchang, and asked with a smile: "Is Mrs. Zun better?" Have you recovered your health? ”
Li Wenchang looked at Nie Xiaoman's expression and said, "Thank you, my lord, I am already much better." I asked you to ask one thing. According to Feng Yunqi, after his investigation, the thief did not really "fly into the sky", so he had already evacuated the guards, do you think it is appropriate to deal with it in this way? ”
Nie Xiaoman immediately said: "Okay, I already have another thief, so it is indeed not the act of "Flying in the Sky". ”
Li Wenchang exclaimed: "Really? Did Master Nie really catch the thief? ”
Nie Xiaoman nodded again and again, "That's right, but it can't be announced who the thief is yet." Is Feng Yunqi here? ”
Li Wenchang said: "He has been tracking for two days in a row, and told me that there are clues, and now that the tolerance has been withdrawn, he has gone out to secretly investigate, and I am waiting for his reply." ”
After Li Wenchang finished speaking, he looked up: "What a coincidence, Feng Yunqi is here, I don't know if I have already gotten the news?" ”
Everyone looked back at the clouds at the same time, and sure enough, Feng Yunqi staggered in from outside. Nie Xiaoman quickly walked out, talked to a small group in a low voice, and then came back. After Feng Yunqi approached, he immediately reported: "Just as the master said, I met a friend who had just returned from Yangzhou. He said that at three o'clock the day before yesterday, he met a horse leper at Lijin Gate, and when he met him, he had a small package in his arm, and he was in a hurry, which was completely consistent with what I said. ”
Li Wenchang hurriedly asked: "Then you really suspect that Ma Lezi is the main culprit!" ”
Feng Yunqi said with a confident look: "There is nothing wrong at all, think about the day before the case, Li Weisan saw him sneakily wandering at the mouth of the alley, and now someone met him at Lijin Gate in Yangzhou, guessing by time, after he stole and hid all night, he found a carriage and a horse and fled all the way to Yangzhou the next morning. ”
Feng Yunqi spoke very freely, Jing Mo couldn't help but sweat for his good friend, but Xiaoman didn't seem to care, listening to Feng Yunqi with a serious face.
"He took advantage of the situation to sneak in, it must have been Gao Laosi who told him. Now Gao Laosi denies denying it, if he catches Ma Leper back, he will definitely be able to confront him face to face. Therefore, I mean to immediately send someone to Jinling to arrest him, and if he is not prepared, he will definitely be able to completely recover the jewelry and jade. Otherwise, let him escape too far and be caught off guard. ”
Li Wenchang nodded while listening, and said slowly: "You say, who can rush to Yangzhou to arrest?" ”
Feng Yunqi immediately said: "If the master believes me, I am willing to take a trip, because I know all of Ma Lezi's friends in Yangzhou, and it may be much easier to track his whereabouts than others." ”
When Li Wenchang heard this, he didn't answer immediately, he looked at Nie Xiaoman and said, "Even so, I remember that Master Nie just said that he has also obtained the main culprit." ”
When Nie Xiaoman heard the question, he cheered up and said loudly: "That's right, I not only found the main culprit, but also the stolen goods." ”
When Li Wenchang heard this, he was even more shocked and asked: "My lord, my lord, no, it's a joke!" ”
"What is this event? Can I be kidding? ”
"So is the thief that Master Nie is referring to the same person as Feng Yunqi said? Or is it someone else ......? ”
