night.
Ma Min comes to visit.
"Brother Xu Xian, I have basically investigated the case. Zhang Yu, Zhao Gu was bribed to do harm to you. Someone in the martial arts school saw that they had contact with the shopkeeper Zhou Ji yesterday."
Shopkeeper Zhou Ji.
Xu Ning frowned slightly, and instantly understood the reason. Was it because he had pawned too many banknotes, so he found someone to kill him and wanted to get the banknotes back?
"Brother Xu Xian, the Zhou family is a large family in Yongping County and pays a lot of business taxes every year. Now Zhang Yu and Zhao Gu are dead. Although some people have seen them in contact with Zhou Ji, there is no evidence to prove that it is Zhou Ji. The shopkeeper pays for murder, so..."
Ma Min paused for a moment when he said this, believing that Xu Ning could understand what he meant.
Xu Ning understood. Even if it was true that Zhou Ji's pawnshop hired a murderer, it would be difficult for the county government to arrest him because there was no evidence. Moreover, the Zhou family was a large family and a large taxpayer, so even the county government would have to give him a small amount of money.
He nodded, "The hard-working horse has been arrested. These silver coins will be used to drink wine for the brothers in charge of the government office."
As he said this, he stuffed a piece of silver into his hand.
Ma Min squeezed the silver ingot and felt happy. These were ten taels of silver ingots, which were equivalent to half a year's salary. Xu Ning was really generous.
The smile on his face couldn't help but grow a little more, and he said with a smile: "It cost Xu Xiandi money, I will have people patrol this area more at night, so as not to disturb Xu Xiandi's good dreams."
"Then Rauma will catch the head."
"We're all brothers, why are you so polite? Don't call me head-to-head. How much older am I than you? Just call me Brother Ma."
"Besides, Brother Xian is very good at concealed weapon skills. I saw the two corpses today and the hidden weapons were deeply embedded in the bodies. His techniques were very domineering. If you ask Brother Xian for help in the future, please don't refuse."
Xu Ning's face jumped. It would be great if he knew how to use hidden weapons. No wonder he called himself Mr. Xu in the morning, and this evening he called his wise brother to get closer. It turned out to be a misunderstanding that he was a master of hidden weapons.
But when Ma Min said this, he could only clasp his fists and say: "Easy to say, easy to say."
…
Late at night.
Xu Ning did not return to the modern world. He had nothing to do when he returned now. It would be better to stay here and wait for Li Daniu to come back tomorrow and hand over the shop to him. It would not be too late for him to go back.
In the room, Xu Ning took out the drone. Since the shopkeeper Zhou Ji was unkind to him, he would not be polite. This time he did not succeed. What if the shopkeeper was still evil and found someone to kill him?
Although I have a gun and can protect myself, I can't always be on guard. I am not afraid of thieves stealing, but I am afraid that thieves will remember me. I have to solve this problem.
Use your mobile phone to connect to the drone, so that you can watch the footage captured by the drone on your phone. Then, Xu Ning hung a grenade on the robotic arm of the drone.
He spent a lot of money to buy this drone. Its maximum remote control range is more than ten miles, and it can also take high-definition aerial photography at an altitude of hundreds of meters.
Not only that, the battery life is up to 36 hours, and there are two mechanical arms under the fuselage that can make some simple movements similar to human hands.
Originally, in this different world, without radio communication technology, mobile phones and drones could not connect.
But after these two things pass through the Bronze Gate, they will be able to communicate with each other. This is also an auxiliary function of the Bronze Gate. Otherwise, Xu Ning would not buy a drone in the main world.
Soon Xu Ning controlled the drone and flew towards Zhou Ji's pawnshop.
The night was very quiet, and the vibrations of drones could be heard in the air. The camera was turned on at night, and the picture was clearly transmitted back to Chu Yun's mobile phone.
However, Zhou Ji's pawnshop had already closed at this moment, and the camera could not see through. Xu Ning didn't know if Zhou Xing had spent the night in the pawnshop, so he could only hover the drone at high altitude.
After doing this, Xu Ning set an alarm clock, then decorated the room the same as yesterday before going to bed.
…
Jingle Bell!
An alarm rang, and Xu Ning woke up from his sleep. He took a look at his cell phone, which showed the footage taken by a drone.
It was still only a little bright, but there was already smoke in the county town. As usual, Zhou Xing came to the pawn shop early to open the door.
Although he hired a waiter, he opened and closed the door himself, as he had done for decades. At this moment, Zhou Xing had a smile on his face. Yesterday, Ma Min went to Zhou's house, asked some simple questions and then left.
Zhou Xing knew that the incident had passed, and as he thought, the two people he hired were dead, but without evidence, no one could say that he hired people to kill Xu Ning.
Of course, in private, the head of the Zhou family reprimanded him severely. He felt that what he did was too rough and he did it without investigating clearly, so he should reflect on it.
At this moment, Zhou Xing was humming a tune, opened the door of the pawn shop and walked in.
Xu Ning quickly looked through the pictures taken last night and confirmed that there was no one else in the pawn shop. Only Zhou Xing was in the pawn shop now.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Ning gave orders to the drone through his mobile phone.
In an instant, the drone landed quickly from a high altitude. It was not too bright at this moment, so no one noticed the drone falling from the sky.
Not long after, the drone landed at the door of Zhou Ji's pawnshop. Then, under Xu Ning's operation, the mechanical arm pulled the grenade's ring, threw it in, and then quickly flew away.
As soon as Zhou Xing entered behind the counter, he heard a crisp sound coming from the floor. He stretched out his head and saw a black, fist-sized oval object rolling in.
what?
This idea just popped into Zhou Xing's mind.
boom--!
A deafening explosion sounded, and the entire pawn shop suffered a violent impact instantly. This was a high-explosive grenade with huge power.
The surrounding air was torn apart, grenade fragments flew out like meteors, wood chips and gravel flew into the pawn shop, and smoke and dust billowed.
Zhou Xing didn't even hum before he was blown to pieces and his soul returned to the west.
Soon, Zhou Ji's pawnshop collapsed and became a ruin.
The people around the pawn shop looked horrified and had no idea what was happening. Was this being punished by the gods?
…
Xu Ning watched Zhou Ji's pawnshop being blown up through the drone's camera throughout the whole process, feeling unfazed. There was nothing he could do in modern society, but in this different world, if he dared to provoke him, he would strike hard.
Of course, no one knew that he did it. After all, he didn't go out at home. It was a perfect alibi. Although the Yamen might suspect that it was his revenge, there was no evidence.
He took the drone back and had breakfast under Cuixue's service. Cuixue had washed her body with shower gel and no longer smelled of shit, which made Xu Ning feel much happier.
"If Uncle Daniu comes back, ask him to come to the store to find me."
Xu Ning said nothing and went to the store. Today was the first day the store was open, so he had to go and watch it in person.
