Outside the county government cell, Xia Jingyun saw Capt. Wu with an injured arm.
Seeing Xia Jingyun, he stood up excitedly, with admiration on his face, "Mr. Xia, you are really clever! I listened to your words and asked everyone to pretend to be unprepared, and the thief came at night!"
Xia Jingyun said anxiously: "Where is the person? Where is he?"
A hint of embarrassment suddenly flashed across Capt. Wu's face, "It's a pity that the thief's martial arts skills are not low, so he still escaped."
He immediately added, "But don't worry, although I was injured, I also wounded the thief with a knife. His right arm holding the knife was also injured by me!"
Xia Jingyun:......
You're still very proud, right?
Do you think you are Li Chungang, here to play the trick of exchanging arms?
Now the person has run away, I look at you, oh no, look at what I will do!
What if you kill me while walking on the road?
Pressing down the depression in his heart, he turned his head and glanced at the night, "Have you arranged a hunt?"
"It's been arranged, don't worry, two capable and fast men have already chased him, and they will definitely catch the thief."
Xia Jingyun sighed, "Can those two beat you?"
"What are you talking about? My reputation as a head catcher is not in vain. Let alone two people, there are three or four people..."
Wu Captou was bragging when he suddenly stopped.
Yes, those two people can't beat me, and I can't keep that thief. How can they keep him?
Sure enough, after a while, the two detectives returned without success.
------------------
When another early morning arrives, the sky has not yet fully lighted up. The scattered fallen leaves in the yard and the gray sky together outline the depression.
The autumn colors are already in full bloom.
In the kitchen, the two housewives were already busy making breakfast.
The firelight of the stove, the light of the oil lamp, and the sizzling sound of the food flipping in the pot are the simple and pure smell of fireworks.
After a while, everyone got up one after another and sat around the dinner table.
"Hey, son, what did the police officer ask you to do last night?"
Xia Hengzhi asked, and everyone also cast curious glances.
Xia Jingyun thought for a while and said, "It's nothing. Our previous bearded supervisor was also unlucky. He actually met a bandit when he went out of the city and died! Capt. Wu from the county government knew about my relationship with him, so Tell me. You must also be careful not to leave the city these days!"
The last sentence successfully diverted everyone's attention. Xia Hengzhi said in surprise: "Bandits? They actually came to the edge of the city?"
Xia Mingxiong snorted, "What's so strange about this? Our Sishui Prefecture is located in a remote area, and life has become increasingly difficult in recent years. There are more and more bandits and bandits. I heard some big shots say before that we are afraid of troubled times. It’s coming again.”
The three-hundred-year law... Xia Jingyun murmured in his heart, and smiled in a pretense of relaxation, "Don't worry so much, just stay well in this Jiang'an city, as long as Old Master Yun is here, as long as the court does not fall, This is the safest place in Surabaya Prefecture after the prefecture city.”
Everyone felt that it made sense and breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Jingyun's heart suddenly moved, "Uncle, you have traveled through the world and have seen a lot. What do you think is the most suitable place to get information?"
Xia Mingxiong's praise of his nephew was quite useful. He leaned back, touched his full belly, and said loudly: "Of course it's a brothel! There's a mix of fish and dragons coming from the south and the north. What news? You can all find out.”
A voice suddenly said coldly and insidiously: "You know it very well, don't you?"
"Of course...ma'am! Nothing, I have a friend who told me this."
"Oh? Which friend?"
Mrs. Xia Zhang refused to give up and refused to forgive others.
Xia Jingyun and Xia Yunfei looked at each other and threw away their chopsticks at the same time, "I'm full!"
Then apply oil on the soles of your feet.
"Hey! Gao Yang, Dingyuan, you two..."
"What the hell! Tell me the truth!"
------------------
Jiang'an County, County School, Xu Dapeng sat in a pavilion in the courtyard, reading silently, glancing at the door from time to time.
"Xu Boyi, are you still waiting for your friend Wen Kui to come see you?"
Several students walked by together and said with a teasing smile.
"Now that I have a civil servant and become Mr. Su's disciple, do you really expect people to remember you, a person who just met you once?"
Xu Dapeng snorted and insisted: "Brother Gao Yang is not that kind of person!"
"Of course he is not like that to someone who is equally powerful, but why do people remember you? Because you are not good-looking, or because you are not outstanding in reading?"
"It's been more than a day, are you waiting for someone to come to your door?"
"you......"
At this moment, a clear and gentle voice sounded at the door, "Excuse me, are Xu Dapeng and Xu Boyi here?"
"Brother Gao Yang!"
Xu Boyi stood up, excitedly waved the book in his hand, and responded loudly.
Seeing Xia Jingyun standing tall and handsome, several students who had previously mocked Xu Dapeng looked at each other in confusion.
I didn't expect it to come.
I don't know who took the lead. Everyone quickly followed and saluted, "I've met Brother Gao Yang."
Xia Jingyun immediately returned the gift with a gentle and friendly smile, which also won the favor of many people.
...
Walking in Jiang'an City, among the bustling crowds, Xia Jingyun said softly: "I was busy yesterday, so I didn't come to visit. Brother Bo Yi, please forgive me."
Xu Dapeng suddenly felt warm and moved, "Brother Gao Yang, what are you talking about? I can't thank you enough for coming."
"We are all friends, so why are we grateful?" Xia Jingyun said with a smile: "Besides, being the leader of a cultural gathering is neither an imperial examination nor a formal occasion. It is nothing more than a false name and not worth caring about."
"Brother Gao Yang is so upright and upright, I can't match him!"
Xia Jingyun rolled his eyes, "If you keep talking like this, we won't be able to play anymore."
Xu Dapeng was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Where are we going to play today?"
"Go and visit the unique places in Jiang'an City."
"Oh?" Xu Dapeng raised his eyebrows, "I haven't heard of any unique places here!"
Xia Jingyun thought for a while and suddenly asked: "When did Brother Boyi die on his first night?"
Xu Dapeng shrank his neck and quickly turned his head and looked around. Can this be said in public?
Seeing that no one seemed to notice him, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Twenty-one."
Now it was Xia Jingyun's turn to be stunned, "I remember Brother Boyi is only twenty years old?"
Xu Dapeng smiled sheepishly, "So this is a hope for a better future."
Xia Jingyun silently gave a thumbs up, "Then, do you want to fulfill your wish today?"
Xu Dapeng's eyes lit up, "So, Brother Gao Yang, are we going to a brothel to meet a prostitute?"
"Don't say it so obscenely." Xia Jingyun chuckled and said, "We are here to educate women who have made mistakes."
"How to educate?" Xu Dapeng showed a smile that all men understand.
Xia Jingyun turned to look at him and slowly said two words, "vulgar."
Jiang'an City is not big, but daily necessities such as brothels still exist.
Although there is no clear hierarchy like the buildings, courtyards, pavilions and pavilions in Zhongjing City, there are still three brothels and some shady clandestine brothels to meet the daily needs of men.
Especially after the Empress Dowager De's marriage came and the brothels in Zhongjing City sent their main forces to carry out technical poverty alleviation, prostitutes from the entire Sishui Prefecture... ahem, literati and prostitutes, all gathered here.
Let the three brothels be in dire straits.
Especially in Yicui Building, business is booming after attracting the famous courtesan Ning Bing from Zhongjing City to settle there.
Standing in front of Yicui Building, Xia Jingyun looked at Xu Dapeng with a smile, "Brother Boyi, what do you think of this place?"
Xu Dapeng's eyes were fascinated, "This building is so big, oh no, it's so white!"
Xia Jingyun smiled playfully, "Then let's go to this place."
As Xu Dapeng walked in, he was greeted by the enthusiastic madam, chattering words that made Xu Dapeng lively.
Veterans like Xia Jingyun don't do that. They look at the girl in front of them indifferently, and then wave and say something indifferently when they don't like her.
Change a batch.
However, although Xia Jingyun came to check for information today, he did not act rashly. Instead, he first found a seat, ordered some food and drinks, and slowly observed.
Xia Jingyun silently watched the people coming and going outside. While scanning his eyes to see if there were any people with injured arms among them, he couldn't help but be attracted by the magnificent breasts of the girls passing by.
Xuan even discerned some clues from that unnatural leap, tsk tsk, what a bluff!
After watching for a while, I found nothing. Just when I was thinking about what to do next, an old madam came over with a smile on her face, with the unique fragrance of powder, "You two gentlemen, in another quarter of an hour, Miss Ningbing will have tea tonight. It's time, if you two gentlemen are interested, I can lead you there."
