Chapter 105: Getting the Stolen Goods (Plus Update)
He carefully looked at the two pictures of the door gods hanging on the main gate, stroked his beard and said, "The door god, huh?"
He could indeed feel the projection of the door god. It has the ability to resist evil, but it is not like ordinary people who look good and have peace of mind.
Of course, it doesn't care about living people.
Not long after Hu Chengli walked in, he saw the stalemate inside, and his face turned cold: "Those who stand in the way, those who get in the way, kill!"
Chen Zhonghe was stunned, and Hu Chengli patted him on the shoulder, "Oh, I forgot that this is the house." Then don't kill it, put it in a wing room instead. ”
No matter how prosperous Cloud City is, it is also within the jurisdiction of the Sand Realm. Hu Chengli is a special envoy of the Sha Sect, running errands for the sect master, and has great power. The official did not dare to touch the fish again after receiving his order, and began to search seriously.
When the Chen family heard that the envoy from the Shazong sect had arrived, they did not dare to obstruct them from handling the case.
Hu Chengli asked someone to bring tea and snacks, pulled Chen Zhonghe to sit down in the middle hall, and did not let him leave during the whole process, nor did he allow the Chen family to come in.
Chen Zhonghe knew that this was to prevent him from asking his family to transfer his belongings.
Chen's mansion is very large, and after more than half an hour, various officials came to report, except for gold and silver calligraphy and paintings and valuable antiques, there is nothing else to find.
Chen Zhonghe quietly breathed a sigh of relief, okay.
Hu Chengli secretly paid attention to him, and saw that although he looked at his nose and nose and heart, he looked like he was out of control, but his heart was beating extremely diligently, and he immediately ordered: "Search again." ”
Chen Zhonghe's fear turned into anger: "Lord Hu, just stop in moderation! Look what my family has turned into!"
The search is not a matter of taking things lightly and returning them to their original places after they have been seen. They searched the house, and it was like a hurricane passing through the house, and everything was crooked, and even the bedding had to be cut open to see it, so as not to miss the hidden things.
This is still the Yacha who remembered that the owner of the house was judged by Chen Tong, and how many subordinates showed mercy.
"Where's the 'but', I'll have the final say tonight. Thinking that he was stepping on his turf, Hu Chengli gave him a cup of tea, "Chen Tongju, I won't live with you tonight." If I can't find anything, I'll come tomorrow morning to plead guilty!"
After a long time, the official came to report again, but still found nothing.
Hu Chengli played with the tea cup and gave the third order: "Search again!"
The officials looked at each other and understood: If you can't find something, this Lord Hu doesn't plan to leave tonight.
From this point on, they played twelve points seriously.
Two hours passed.
At this time, it was already the third watch in the middle of the night, and Chen Zhonghe was frightened for most of the night, and everyone was a little dizzy. As soon as he picked up the teacup and took a sip, two officials hurriedly stepped in from outside, holding something in their hands, and said loudly:
"Report! A dark compartment was found in the study!"
"Ding", with a crisp sound, the teacup in Chen Zhonghe's hand fell to the ground.
The secret compartment he hid under the desk has really been found!
Hu Chengli sighed, strode over, first took out a book from it, flipped through a few pages, and then raised it and shook it at Chen Zhonghe: "What is this?"
Chen Zhonghe opened his mouth and was speechless. This is his roster and account book, which records the personal contacts since he took office, and the names and amounts of people in it are there, if they are circulated, the consequences will be unimaginable!
Although there are code words, it is only a matter of time before they are deciphered.
When he grabbed the booklet, Hu Chengli smiled to himself, but when he saw the remaining two things in the grid, his face suddenly turned solemn.
He grabbed the brass-riddled box and opened it quickly.
Of course, it was empty inside.
Hu Chengli's previous composure was gone, and he asked sharply: "Where is the pen! Where are you hiding?"
This box is long and narrow, is it a pen box? Chen Zhonghe looked dazed: "What is this? I—I don't know, I only put a booklet in the dark compartment." ”
"Oh?" Hu Chengli squinted at him, "This thing is in your secret compartment, you don't know what it is?"
"I've never seen this!" Chen Zhonghe said anxiously, "It must have been Shi's who put it in!
Hu Chengli said word by word: "Are you saying that she is so sick that she can sneak into your mansion, hide from your nursing home, climb into your study, find your secret compartment, and then stuff it into this pen case, so that she can blame you?"
"I, this ......" Chen Zhonghe was dumbfounded, and only after a few breaths did he have an idea, "She can instruct others!" He suddenly understood, this box is for treasures?
Hu Chengli said coldly: "For example?" Civilians can make friends, only civilians, otherwise Shi Xinglan and Su Yuyan will be bullied to death by this surnamed Chen?
Chen Zhonghe couldn't speak, he just felt that his mouth was full of coptis.
"This box is broken, and it has no power to seal it. Hu Chengli asked again, "Where did you hide the Spring and Autumn Pen, or where did you send it?"
Chen Zhonghe can only deny it.
Hu Chengli stretched out his hand and took out the third thing from the dark compartment.
One side token.
The material is neither gold nor jade, it is black, but when the cards are flipped under the lamp, there is occasionally a hint of gold reflected as if there is no hint of gold.
The brand is very concise, and the word "win" is engraved in the middle, and the bottom is marked with "One Bai Lu Shi Er".
"It's still the same old question. Hu Chengli shook the token, "What is this?"
Chen Zhonghe could only shake his head. So many things happened tonight, and it was long beyond his bearing. I don't know if he was frightened for too long, but now he is numb.
"Everyone has stolen goods, take Chen Tong away!" Hu Chengli waved his hand, "Even the Chen family." ”
"Wait a minute, I'm not convinced!" Chen Zhonghe rushed quickly, but was stopped by the yacha, "I don't know what these two are!"
"Is this—" Hu Chengli grabbed the sign in his hand and looked at it repeatedly, "I'll find out soon." I hope that Chen Tong will be honest before that. ”
¥¥¥¥¥
Shi family.
Tonight, Hu Chengli had already ordered to strictly guard the stone house, and no one was allowed to enter or leave, and when he left, he left seven or eight officials to guard here.
There was a mess in the inner wings, and it was neither pleasing nor pleasing to the eye to stare at a seriously ill, wrinkled woman, so the servants went out of the courtyard and occasionally patrolled the courtyard.
I don't know how long it took, but there was a sudden cry in the inner wing, and the beams were about to be lifted.
Several people looked at each other in shock, and rushed into the house to take a look, the fat sister-in-law covered the towel and cried and grabbed the ground, everyone in the stone house hung their heads and wiped their tears, and Dr. Zhai sat on the side, gloomy.
The famous Lingsu family in Cloud City was half-sitting at the head of the bed, holding the person in their arms motionless, as if they had turned into a wood carving, and they wouldn't even shed tears.
Shi Xinglan left.
The scene of the crying and funeral was the most unlucky, and the officials shrank their hands and feet and were about to go out, when one of them suddenly said: "Hey, it seems that there is no one else?"
