Song Yuyan naturally did not agree to Rouer's request. She was eager to take revenge, but she would not do anything to get revenge.

Even if she really did do anything, she would do it to herself, not to the poor sisters who followed her to survive.

She didn't want to implicate the innocent.

"Xu An..."

Song Yuyan glanced at the young man who had turned over and climbed up from the ground, chasing Cheng Hu and the other two, and suddenly laughed: "Don't worry, just wait and see!"

The revenge of the Song family was a big revenge for her, but in the face of the general trend in Kyoto, it seemed a little insignificant.

Now that people are dying all over the world, who would care about the lives of a few ants among the powerful people in Kyoto?

Perhaps what she can do is to use the general trend to seek justice for her family.

Rouer bit her thin lips and looked at Xu An without saying anything.

Just now, she was ready to sacrifice herself in exchange for information for the young lady, but she found that she didn't seem to be very resistant to this matter in her heart.

In her heart, she was looking forward to it.

Thinking of this, her pretty face turned redder, and she lowered her head and dared not look up.

After Xu An and Cheng Hu played for a while, they returned to the government office.

Qingyi and several maids had already rushed over, and under Gongsun Yan's arrangement, they cleaned the house for Xu An.

After Xu An returned to the county government office, he asked someone to call back Zhan Peng who was investigating the case, and then returned to the study to continue writing his Dream of Red Mansions.

So far, he has written the third chapter.

When Xu An decided to write the sixth chapter, he would start printing it as the first volume, but before that, he had to build up momentum.

He wrote until nightfall, and the head of the police, Zhan Peng, finally returned to the government office to ask for an audience.

"Sir, you are right. Li did keep the account book."

As soon as he saw Xu An, Zhan Peng clasped his fists and said excitedly: "I followed the direction you said and found Li's accomplice."

"After interrogation, Li's accomplice has confessed. Li's husband Li Ergou is also an accomplice. He is in charge of the account book."

"Because Li Ergou can read, the account book is actually the safest in his hands."

Xu An was shocked when he heard this. Li Ergou is an accomplice?

In other words, I was wrong that day. This guy's acting skills actually concealed him?

Damn, this acting skill can win the Golden Man!

"Have you got the account book?" Xu An asked immediately.

"The account book has not been obtained yet. Li Ergou... wants to see you."

Zhan Peng looked at Xu An and bowed: "He said he has something to tell you. If you don't see him, you will regret it!"

See me? Seeing me is nothing more than bargaining!

Xu An pondered for a moment and said, "Bring him here! To prevent accidents, he no longer needs to be locked up in the jail today, but in the middle room of the government office."

"Your Excellency is wise, I will do it right away."

Zhan Peng cupped his hands, he knew this was to prevent the news from leaking out and Li Ergou from being silenced.

After half an incense stick of time, Xu An saw Li Ergou again.

Unlike the pitiful look of that day, Li Ergou's face was grim at this time, his eyes were full of cruelty, kneeling on the ground and staring at Xu An coldly.

"Your acting skills are not bad, you even fooled this young master!"

Xu An put down his pen, walked around the desk and looked Li Ergou up and down.

"According to you, with your cruelty, why would you choose to kill your wife at home?"

Xu An held his hands and tapped his elbow with the fingertips of his right hand: "Wouldn't it be better to kill her and bury her in any secret place? Why did you choose to kill her at home and disguise it as suicide?"

This is what Xu An couldn't figure out. This guy was engaged in trafficking children and women, and he could easily cause a death. Logically, this guy should be able to do this kind of thing easily.

But there were many flaws at the scene that day!

"Kill her because I heard her conspiracy with her adulterer."

Li Ergou raised his head, his face grim: "The matter has been exposed. They actually want to kill me together, and then pretend to commit suicide, and put all the blame on me, so that the people in the government will think that I am committing suicide out of fear of punishment."

"Then, take the money you have earned over the years and go out to have fun!"

"I just did what they wanted to do."

He had a grim face and a crazy smile: "After that bitch came back, she cooked for me personally, trying to knock me out with a knockout drug before taking action."

"Little did she know that I had already replaced the bowl she put the drug in."

"I wanted to strangle her to death while she was unconscious, but I didn't expect her to wake up in the middle..."

Xu An narrowed his eyes slightly, which made sense.

Li Ergou originally wanted to use the knockout drug to strangle his wife who wanted to kill him, but the drug was too strong.Not enough, his wife woke up halfway.

Li Ergou fell into panic, revealing so many flaws.

Well, so many flaws are because of him. If it weren't for him, Li Ergou could have escaped from the hands of Zhan Peng and others with his superb acting skills.

"You just said that the matter was exposed? What does that mean?"

Xu An came back to his senses and looked at Li Ergou.

From Li Ergou's words, he heard that Li Ergou killed his wife because he knew that the trafficking of children and women was exposed.

Li Ergou said coldly: "The woman you arrested is the one under the hands of that bitch."

The woman arrested? Which woman?

Xu An was stunned for a moment, then suddenly woke up: "Are you talking about the woman trafficker who was imprisoned by me that day?"

"Yes, it's her."

Li Ergou said angrily: "It's because of that stupid woman that we have fallen to this point..."

Xu An looked at Zhan Peng, who hurriedly bowed and said: "My Lord, it was through the confession of that woman that I found Li."

Xu An nodded slightly.

No wonder Li Ergou's wife became a frightened bird, because he vowed in front of the county government that day that he would investigate this matter to the end.

"Where is the account book?"

Xu An looked at Li Ergou.

"The account book? The account book is my amulet now. Do you think I will give it to you easily?"

Li Ergou grinned and stared at Xu An and said, "As long as you promise to let me go, I can even tell you...some very important things."

Xu An looked down at Li Ergou and smiled, "Do you think I will agree?"

"Let you go, then what about those women and children you trafficked?"

Li Ergou sneered and said disdainfully, "Why is your Excellency doing this? Those mud legs, if they die, they die, what's the big deal?"

"And I can give you a great credit!"

Xu An narrowed his eyes slightly. This guy is indeed educated.

He knows how to talk.

But this way of talking...

Xu An calmly drew out Zhan Peng's sword: "Hmm? What did you say?"
