Let Me Draw a Card In the Infinite World - Chapter 109
Fu Xiangxiang’s eyes widened at once, and he walked two steps closer to the bed, leaning over to look.
Qin Shisan stretched out his arm, and a small group of spiritual light gathered in his palm to illuminate her.
I saw that there were indeed two people on the bed, under the same quilt, but only one was a living person.
Lying on his side was a chubby middle-aged man in his forties, and his chubby belly could be seen clearly through the quilt.
And the one lying flat beside him was actually a sheepskin dummy, reflecting the light golden aura of Qin Shisan’s palm, and the hand-painted facial features on the sheepskin dummy’s face were clearly visible, which looked very strange.
The middle-aged fat man didn’t feel it, and slept soundly next to it.
Fu Xiangxiang: “…”
This person has multiple tastes to sleep on a quilt next to a sheepskin dummy, and sleep so soundly!
Although this is an inflatable thing, you don’t really need to use it as an inflatable doll!
Myeyes! Myeyes!
Fu Xiangxiang frantically complained: If I make a mistake, please let the law punish me instead of letting me see this kind of picture!
She looked at Qin Shisan in a complicated mood, and their expressions were a little hard to say.
After a long while, Fu Xiangxiang pointed towards the door, and the two of them walked out of the upper room.
Fu Xiangxiang twitched his lips: “There are no wonders in the world. Maybe some people just have special hobbies…”
Qin Shisan scratched his head in embarrassment, “About me.”
Fu Xiangxiang touched his chin and wondered: “Is it because they slandered and deceived the corpse, the people in the patrol room are about to arrest them? Isn’t the Kongshe Taoist also very dangerous?”
Qin Shisan: “Then what are you going to do? Do you want to change to an inn?”
“The Taoist Kongshe means that tomorrow will take a day off during the day and start to drive at night. If I propose to change the inn for no reason, or leave early, he will certainly not agree, and it does not conform to my personality.” Fu Xiangxiang frowned: “Moreover, the name of this mission is called’Zombie Inn’, and the main storyline will inevitably take place in this inn. It seems that we are destined to not leave tomorrow night. As for the reason why we can’t leave, it depends on how the plot develops. “
Qin Shisan lowered his eyes to look at her, raised his right hand, stroked her finger between her eyebrows, and gently smoothed her tightly twisted eyebrows with his warm fingertips: “Don’t worry, there is me!”
Fu Xiangxiang raised his head and pursed his lips and smiled lightly, his bright eyes gleaming in the moonlight: “Okay.”
No new clues could be found in the inn, so Qin Shisan took Fu Xiangxiang directly to the county office.
This era is about to break the old and establish the new. The feudal dynasty has just collapsed, but the old rules and regulations in remote areas have not had time to change. Therefore, although the title of the leader of this small town has been changed from the county magistrate to the county magistrate, the office location is still the old Yamen, and the people are still not used to the western name of “county government”, and they are still called “county government”.
The area of the county office is comparable to that of the patrol house. It is a three-in-one courtyard, obviously just renovated, and the courtyard walls and gates are all new.
Unexpectedly, this small town has become so poor, the county government can still be so stylish, Fu Xiangxiang pulled the corners of his mouth, the county magistrate must be very bad.
It’s a pity that although the county office is large, there is still a small vault hidden in the magistrate’s room. Fu Xiangxiang and the others have searched the entire courtyard, but there is still no trace of the “transmission formation”.
Seeing that the time is too late, the sky will soon be bright any more. It seems that tonight is destined to be nothing, Fu Xiangxiang sneaked back to the firewood room and lay down to rest.
Taoist Kong She and Mo Yu were also tired about yesterday, and there was no schedule in the daytime the next day, and the two of them slept until three poles in the sun.
But until the two of them finished washing, Fu Xiangxiang rubbed his sleepy eyes and struggled to get up. Mo Yu couldn’t help being curious: “Sister, why do you still look sleepy when you wake up so late? Did you go as a thief last night?”
Fu Xiangxiang yawned greatly, and took out the Spirit Lu from Qin Shisan from his pocket to relieve his fatigue. He said to his heart, Senior Sister, I was just a thief.
The three of them had just eaten some breakfast casually, and there was a loud noise outside the inn.
Fu Xiangxiang and Mo Yu looked at each other: “Is there any excitement? Go out and have a look!”
Taoist Kong She sighed: “What’s so beautiful, kid’s character!”
He said that he waved to them disgustingly, and sat cross-legged on the spot, sitting and resting leisurely.
As soon as the two walked to the lobby of the inn, Fu Xiangxiang saw a few familiar figures that he had seen in the patrol room last night.
The uncle of the police uniform is inquiring with the patron in the inn: “Are all the guests in the room still there?”
Seeing that the officer is coming, the little brother Paotang nodded hurriedly: “It’s all here, Captain Feng, you are coming to the shop, what’s the point?”
“It’s all right!” Captain Feng didn’t answer, and led his men directly to the second floor: “Brothers, go up and arrest people!”
Just two steps up, two young men in bright yellow robes stretched out their hands to stop him.
These two were born tall and mighty, and they don’t have a sense of immortality in their robes. They are more like bodyguards or thugs than Taoist priests.
“Who caught?” The two mighty brothers looked very bad: “These are our people who live in the upper rooms, this–“
Brother Paotang quickly added: “This is Captain Feng from the patrol room.”
“The patrol room?” The two mighty brothers frowned at the same time, and one of them said coldly: “Even in the patrol room, you can’t break into someone else’s room for no reason, right?”
Captain Feng’s face was so hard to see where he was going, and he stared at them: “I suspect that you are related to a big case. I advise you to be honest!”
“Major case? Hehehe, what major case deserves Captain Feng you to fight so hard?”
There was a slightly hoarse voice from upstairs. A middle-aged man in a black robe pushed open the door, touched his fat belly, walked out slowly, and stood in the corridor looking down at Captain Feng.
When Fu Xiangxiang saw this, his eyelids jumped uncontrollably. Isn’t this the heavy taste buddy who slept next to the parchment man last night!
“You are in charge?” Captain Feng confronted him.
“Exactly.” The man smiled very kindly: “The next name is Wang Cheng, and he has temporarily received the imaginary title of steward.”
Captain Feng: “You came right in time! Now we suspect that you are related to a major theft. We also ask Guanshi Wang to cooperate in the investigation.”
“I wonder how Captain Feng hopes to cooperate?” Wang Cheng frowned.
Captain Feng snorted: “It’s easy! Just ask you to ask a few questions for us on the patrol house!”
Wang Cheng still smiled, but his eyes were full of coldness: “All of us? Captain Feng. Although Wang is not talented, he also knows that even in the patrol room, he can’t take people for no reason. I don’t know if Captain Feng is on this trip. Is there an arrest warrant?”
Captain Feng puffed up at the people around him: “Where’s the arrest warrant?”
The gray suit around him looked a little embarrassed, and he leaned close to Captain Feng and said in a low voice: “I went to the county office early this morning, the county magistrate…”
Captain Feng twisted his eyebrows: “What did the county chief say?”
The gray suit was helpless, and said: “The county chief said that we have insufficient clues and evidence, and the arrest warrant…not approved…”
“No approval?” Captain Feng gritted his teeth with anger: “I the **** know that I have insufficient evidence, but as long as the person is arrested and the trial is done, won’t there be evidence?”
The gray suit wiped the sweat from his forehead: “This is also no way…”
Wang Cheng looked at Captain Feng in his spare time: “What’s the matter? Captain Feng is still planning to take us back to make a move.”
“You!” Captain Feng was so angry that his mouth was almost crooked.
At this moment, someone hurriedly walked in outside, in a black suit who had a meeting in the patrol room last night.
The paper in the black suit was stuffed into Captain Feng’s palm: “I’m **** it, the county magistrate finally issued a search warrant, and we can search their room!”
Captain Feng smiled and waved his hand: “Search for me!”
“Who would dare to search?” The two mighty brothers immediately stepped forward, trying to block people.
The players behind Captain Feng were also annoyed: “Why don’t you dare?”
At this time, several young men in bright yellow robes walked out from the upper rooms upstairs, each with a guarded face, looking at the bunch of people in the patrol room with solemn expressions.
The two sides confronted each other, and the atmosphere was quite tense for a while.
In the end, Wang Cheng gave in and smiled: “Don’t be nervous, Captain Feng has a search warrant in his hand. It is normal to want to search in our room.”
Speaking of Captain Feng, he made a “please” gesture: “Captain Feng, please.”
As Captain Feng was about to step upstairs, Wang Cheng faintly added: “Forgot to tell you, I have made an appointment with the magistrate tonight for dinner. I wonder if Captain Feng is interested in having a meal together?”
“You!” Captain Feng remembered the magistrate’s virtues, and instantly understood the meaning of his words.
He calmly looked at his surrounding men: “You must search carefully later, you must find things out, and you can’t give him a chance to meet the county magistrate!”
Since this person has made an appointment with the county magistrate for dinner, he must be ready to pay bribes to the county magistrate. If you can’t find any physical evidence here, the county magistrate will benefit by then, and most likely will let this group of people go. Then the case that I have been pursuing so hard has gone horribly wrong.
The subordinates immediately responded: “Yes!” As they said, they went upstairs and searched each room carefully.
Captain Feng slowly went upstairs, walked to Wang Cheng’s side, and looked at him up and down: “Guan Shi, it seems that the corpse business is pretty good now!”
Wang Cheng looked back at him and smiled: “So average, just eat it.”
Captain Feng snorted, “Guardian Wang, please don’t be humble. For the ordinary corpse chaser, four or five people in a team are too many. Your team, there are more than ten Taoist priests, and you can still be so good. A few days in the guest room, this business is also called average?”
Wang Cheng’s eyes rolled round and round, and he laughed dryly: “Hehe, Captain Feng, Wang is willing to hire a few more people and live in a better guest room. Isn’t it illegal?”
Captain Feng overflowed with a sneer on his lips: “Hehe, naturally you are not against the law. But if we find out that you are doing other things under the name of chasing the corpse, then you are not sure!”
Wang Cheng deliberately made a look of sincerity and fear: “It’s true that I don’t want to hide it, I really did something else. The path of corpse chasing is too deep, and we have not been able to fully grasp it yet. Wang Mou claims to chase corpses back home, in fact. In other words, a few sheepskin dummies were made, and the real corpses have been cremated by us, and they are all well packed in jars.”
“Swaggering and deceiving is really wrong, please forgive me, Captain Feng. I remember that this charge is not serious, deceiving money and destroying other people’s bodies, it is only a small punishment. Moreover, if I can get mercy from employers, I can be private. Right, Captain Feng?”
“You!” Captain Feng was angrily. With his clever tongue, he pushed things clean.
Obviously, he had been prepared. He only admitted that he was bluffing and deceiving, and he would not admit anything else.
Fu Xiangxiang, who was on the sidelines, saw this and realized the deep meaning of it.
She originally thought that Wang Cheng and his accomplices were just like Taoist Kongshe, they just used sheepskin dummy to pretend to be a corpse to swindle and get money.
But as Captain Feng said just now, Wang Cheng’s corpse chasing business is too profitable.
Usually the corpse chaser is commissioned to transport the corpse without much money. After all, wealthy people who die in a foreign land can afford to hire carts and horses to transport the coffin back. Where do you need to drive the corpse? Just like the customers of Taoist Kongshe, the money he paid was only enough to raise two young apprentices, and live in a wood-house.
But Wang Cheng had so many people under him, and he could afford a few upper houses. With such a lavish shot, this business could never be as simple as killing a corpse.
Fu Xiangxiang looked at Wang Cheng curiously, recalling the sheepskin dummy that he saw on his bed last night, and had some guesses in his heart.
