Save the Bachelor of Heaven

"There was a robbery case in Qixia Town two months ago. A master stole a finger puller from a pawn shop without anyone noticing it, which caused a lot of trouble in the city." Xiang Nan said.

"You suspect that he has come out of the rivers and lakes again?" Madam Qian felt justified when she heard this.

"It's suspicious, but it can't be ruled out that it's the inner ghost who committed the crime." Xiang Nan said again, "How about this, Madam Qian, you are in charge of investigating the inner ghost, and I'm in charge of the external investigation. Xiao Liu, is there any new face in Qixia Town recently? Especially those with good skills."

When Xiao Liu heard this, he nodded immediately, "Yes, three swordsmen have come to Tongfu Inn in the past two days, and their martial arts are very high."

When Madam Qian heard it, her eyes lit up.

"Oh, what is their origin?" Xiang Nan asked.

"It is said that he is a disciple of the Hengshan School, so he invited Mo Xiaobei to be the head." Xiao Liu explained.

"Do you think they have a motive for committing the crime?" Xiang Nan asked again.

"The motive for committing the crime?" Xiao Liu scratched his head and asked in confusion.

"That is to say, they are not short of money." Xiang Nan explained.

"Then there must be a lack of money." Yan Xiaoliu said immediately, "I was eating at the Tongfu Inn yesterday, and I heard from Xiao Guo that the three men couldn't even afford a room, so they crowded into the kang where you slept before. Come on. I don’t have money for dinner, so the three of us eat a steamed bun.”

The more Madam Qian listened, the brighter her eyes became, and she clenched her fists excitedly.

She had long wanted to trouble Tong Xiangyu.

On the one hand, it was because shopkeeper Qian always went to Tongfu Inn for dinner, and he also praised this pretty widow a lot while talking. Madam Qian naturally knew her husband's mentality, and was naturally dissatisfied with this potential rival in love.

On the one hand, it is because one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Tong Xiangyu is very popular in Qixia Town, and her business is getting more and more prosperous. Madam Qian is also a strong woman in the business world, and she thinks that she is not inferior to Tong Xiangyu in business and conduct, but her reputation and personnel are far behind, which naturally makes her very dissatisfied.

That's why in the play, she always wants to trouble Tong Xiangyu and Tongfu Inn.

But for no reason, it's not easy for her to come looking for trouble. But now, the opportunity has come.

...

"Well, it does sound a bit suspicious." Xiang Nan nodded, "But the Hengshan School is a famous school after all, and I still don't believe that its disciples can do something sneaky. Let's visit again, investigate and investigate, See if there are no other suspicious people."

After speaking, he stood up and made a gesture to leave.

"Wait." At this moment, Madam Qian suddenly stretched out her hand to stop her, "Captain Li, you used to be the cook of Tongfu Inn, and you had a close relationship with Shopkeeper Tong. Shopkeeper Tong is the daughter-in-law of the Hengshan School. The three of you The disciples of the Hengshan School are like her family..."

"Madam Qian, what on earth are you trying to say, you might as well say it bluntly, and don't talk about it." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said.

"Okay, then I'll just say it straight. I'm afraid you'll bend the law for personal gain, so I don't dare to investigate those three Hengshan sect disciples." Madam Qian said bluntly, "So I'll ask them. You are in charge of investigating the inner ghost."

Xiang Nan's face suddenly darkened, "Mrs. Qian, what you said is unreasonable. I have never met the Hengshan School disciples. Why should I bend the law for personal gain? Besides, you are not a business official, and you have no right to interrogate."

"I don't interrogate them. I lost the money. Is it alright to ask them?" Madam Qian said sharply, "If you don't even agree with this, then you are taking sides with them."

"Okay, okay, you go, but as I said in the head, the three of them are from famous families and martial arts masters. I won't help you clean up any trouble you cause." Xiang Nan warned, choosing himself first .

"Hmph, they come from famous families, and I'm not easy to mess with. Who hasn't practiced martial arts?" Madam Qian curled her lips and walked out.

Seeing this, Xiang Nan sighed, but he was actually secretly happy.

He knew that Mrs. Qian was dissatisfied with Tong Xiangyu, and now he just gave her an excuse.

With Madam Qian's temper, there would definitely be a big fuss. When the time comes, just wait and see the good show.

...

After Mrs. Qian left, Xiang Nan immediately turned his head to look at Shopkeeper Qian, "Treasurer Qian, please invite everyone from the pawnshop one by one. I'm going to start asking for confessions."

"Ah, do you really need to investigate?" Shopkeeper Qian said in shock when he heard this.

"Why, shopkeeper Qian, you already know who stole it?" Xiang Nan asked immediately.

"I don't know, I don't know." Shopkeeper Qian waved his hands repeatedly.

"Then it's over." Xiang Nan glanced at him, "Since you have reported to the government, then I have to take care of it. Otherwise, won't you be free?"

"Okay." Seeing what he said, Shopkeeper Qian had no choice but to nod, and asked the people in the pawn shop to be investigated one after another.

"Where were you from last night to this morning, is there anyone who can prove it, have you seen anyone coming in, have you seen anyone who is suspicious..." Xiang Nan questioned one after another.

Wanli Pawn Shop has eight employees, three of whom are court servants.

Three of them have their own homes, and they all go back to their homes when they finish work at night. When Mrs. Qian woke up early to go to the counter, they hadn't arrived yet, and they hadn't seen them coming in and out, so the loss of money had nothing to do with them.

The eight guys all lived in the backyard, but after asking, most of them had alibi. In this way, it seems that the inner ghost does not exist.

"Captain Li, everyone has asked. Since they haven't been found out, should we just explain that the ghost did it?" Seeing that Xiang Nan hadn't found anything, Shopkeeper Qian asked with a sigh of relief.

"Has everyone asked?" Xiang Nan looked at him and asked.

Shopkeeper Qian's heart skipped a beat, but he still smiled and said, "That's right, everyone has asked."

"Everyone should have asked." Yan Xiaoliu echoed.

"No, shopkeeper Qian, I haven't asked you and your wife yet," Xiang Nan said.

"Captain Li, are you kidding me? The Wanli pawn shop belongs to us, so will we still steal our own money?" Shopkeeper Qian immediately laughed along with him.

"That's right, how can there be any reason to steal money from your own family?" Yan Xiaoliu also thought that Xiang Nan's nonsense was completely unreasonable.

"Xiao Liu, you haven't got a family yet, and you are alone, of course you won't steal your own money." Xiang Nan laughed, "But after you get married, you will know what private money is. If you don't believe me, ask the money shopkeeper, he will give you money." Can you hide your private money?"

"No, no, absolutely not." Shopkeeper Qian was taken aback and waved his hands repeatedly.

"Look, I get blown up when I mention private money, it seems like nothing." Xiang Nan pointed at him and smiled.

When Xiao Liu saw him, he also felt that Shopkeeper Qian's reaction was a bit big.

When Shopkeeper Qian said that, his face immediately became embarrassing.

"Okay, shopkeeper Qian, don't say anything else, just accept the investigation obediently." Xiang Nan said again.

Shopkeeper Qian could no longer refuse, so he nodded.

At this moment, someone shouted, "It's not good, Madam Qian was beaten."
