Chapter 131: The Second Letter

The reaction that these two lines of Liao Liao brought to Su Jingmo was to make him forget the season, and it also made Jingmo break out in a cold sweat.

"Plugging in the sky", although Jing Mo has never met, he has had several indirect contacts. Although the previous experiences, in general, were all fake tricks in the end, but judging from the facts received after the two cases, it seems that there should really be such a snitch.

What is the purpose of this "plugging in the sky" saying that he wants to come to the meeting? And is the letter hostile or friendly?

Nie Xiaoman asked Jing Mo, "You really don't know the origin of this letter?" ”

Jing Mo said innocently: "I don't know, before you come." Just now, the little flag officer sent the file of the Criminal Department's report. So I made tea, opened the door of the duty room, and sat here reading the case. No one has ever come in except for the little flag and you. ”

Nie Xiaoman looked at the window. "You opened this window?" He stood up and walked to the window.

Jing Mo responded: "I opened it." ”

Nie Xiaoman looked at the letter again and nodded: "Hmm, it must have flown in through the window." ”

"Why am I unconscious?"

"Because you can read God. You didn't even notice when I walked in, let alone a light letter? He came back from the window and sat down in a chair behind his desk.

"This is the duty room of the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division, and there is a short wall outside, how can it be so clever that it will fall on the desk not far away?"

"It's a little trick, and it's not surprising. You always know what kind of person "Plugging in the Sky" is. ”

"Oh, do you believe that he is the real "Flying in the Sky"? ”

Nie Xiaoman bit his lip and replied slowly, "Why not?" I believe that most of the cases of the Treasure Antique Shop were committed by him. ”

Jing Mo hesitated a little and said, "I see that the tone on the letter is not quite right. ”

"Oh, what's wrong?"

"We've never seen him before, but he says 'long gone'. Isn't that disproportionate? ”

"Well, Jingmo, you really make me ashamed to mention it. I won't mention other cases, but do you remember the 'Severed Fingers' case? We were locked in the temple by the traitors, and we were able to escape thanks to the "flying in the sky". Though we did not see him then, he must have seen us. Now he actually uses the words 'long time gone', maybe it is a joke! ”

"So do you think he came to us this time, is it good or malice?" Jing Mo asked this question after thinking for a while.

Nie Xiaoman took a rabbit hair from the pen holder and dipped it in the inkstone on the table, wrote a few words on the back of the letterhead, folded it and hid it in the small book he carried with him every day.

Then, Xiaoman responded: "There will be good intentions there?" What do you think we do and what do he do? We eat the food of the court, wear the clothes of the court, and contribute to the court. He fell into the hands of your brocade guards, can he be okay? I'm afraid that my limbs are incomplete. ”

"Well, we are naturally hostile to his position, but the previous two theft cases had fake 'Flying in the Sky', and we have cleared him of the fake twice, and he still seems to have some good feelings for us. ”

He has already repaid this favor twice. Now that you have a conflict of interest, do you think this goodwill can be maintained forever? People are all butts and heads, interests determine positions, and they never change their positions because of their favor. ”

"In that case, we can't afford not to prepare."

Nie Xiaoman nodded: "Yes, I expect his intentions to be nothing more than because I have some so-called reputation in Jinling, and he is slightly dissatisfied in his heart, and now he has committed a crime, and he will bring me in so that we can see each other." If I can't fight him, then it will be even harder for others to trouble him. He can run amok. ”

"Do you think that the theft of Yuxing's treasure store is his temptation to you?"

"Maybe."

"If you take on this case, are you sure you can solve it?"

"It's hard to say. 'Plugging in the sky's unusual bandits, not only is his skills strong, but there must be a lot of feather parties under his command, which is really not easy to deal with. ”

"How do you know he has a feather party?"

"Not to mention anything else, this time the robbery, the janitor of the treasure store has not been whereabouts yet."

"Could it be that the janitor is his feather?"

"Whether it's a real party or not, it's certainly possible to have a connection with him. Otherwise, he has neither wings nor a way to be invisible, so how can he start? ”

Saying that it was almost time for lunch, Nie Xiaoman invited Jing Mo to eat boiled dried shreds together, at this time the late autumn was slightly cold, if you can come to a bowl of authentic Jinling food hot, boiled dried shreds are the best, this dish is cut into thin strips with a piece of dried food and then cooked with ham, mushroom slices, black fungus, shrimp, bean tips, winter bamboo shoots, salt, chicken essence, broth, and then mixed with sesame oil and soy sauce, the entrance is refreshing and the aftertaste is endless.

However, just out of the gate of the yamen, I saw a little guy waiting here, the little guy wore a blue hat and a blue hat, and when he saw Xiao Man, he was very happy, and knelt down and kowtowed while asking: "Dare to ask you are Lord Nie, Mrs. Nie, right?" ”

Xiao Man was stunned for a moment and said, "I am, who are you." ”

The little guy was overjoyed and said: "You can be regarded as finding the master, this is a letter to the master, and the little one will leave." ”

Nie Xiaoman stopped the little guy and rewarded him with a reward of two coins of silver, and the little guy went happily.

Jing Mo said with a smile: "It seems that today's boiled dried shreds, it is very likely that you can't eat it, maybe it is a letter from the credit treasure store to invite you to go, right?" ”

Nie Xiaoman didn't answer, hurriedly opened the letter and read it at a glance, then raised his head again with some apprehension.

Jingmo asked, "How's that?" ”

Nie Xiaoman shook his head and said, "It's not a treasure antique shop, it's a person named Pan Shibi at No. 9 Feng Street looking for me." ”

Jing Mo frowned: "What's the matter with this surnamed Pan?" ”

"He didn't explain, he just said that there was an urgent matter, and he asked us to go."

"Shall we go or not?"

"I guess we'll go first."

This Pan Shiqi, who came to ask Nie Xiaoman, has always been an official in salt affairs, and finally became a deputy envoy of the salt envoy from Wupindu. After Nie Xiaoman and Jing Mo arrived at Pan's house, they only looked at the house where he lived, which could really be described as the sun and moon on the seat, and the dark and dark smoke in front of the hall.

Su Jingmo looked left and right, and saw that the servants were all orderly and orderly, and there was no panicked expression, which was greatly unexpected by Jingmo, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Jiangtou is not a storm, and it is difficult to walk in the world!" ”
