Kang Anping and Ying Feiyu had no intention of paying any attention to the county magistrate, but just discussed the case.
Whether this guy usually goes to a brothel or who he goes to has nothing to do with them!
What they are now concerned about is whether their previous guesses are correct and whether these things are really related to Feng Kuan!
"Hurry up and check. Is there Feng Kuan in the household registration? Where does this person live?"
Taking advantage of the time when the yamen servant followed the old madam to obtain the household registration, Ying Feiyu explained to the county magistrate.
"yes!"
The county magistrate was feeling embarrassed, and there was something he could do to alleviate the awkward atmosphere.
So I quickly took the yamen and went to look for it on the list I just copied down!
After a while, he turned back and said, "His Royal Highness, there are two people named Feng Kuan in the household registration, but this matter has absolutely nothing to do with them!"
"Oh? Why?"
"Because one of them is only three years old and has not yet been weaned, and the other is already over sixty years old. He doesn't even know if he can walk smoothly, let alone go to Xiangmanlou! Moreover, the Yamen servant has seen the man named Feng Kuan. , said to be around middle age, there’s no way it’s them!”
"Well! It seems that this Feng Kuan is not a local!"
Ying Feiyu nodded.
"I wonder if the madam knows that guy's address!"
“I’ll tell you when I ask you later!”
With the government servants taking him with him, the madam returned quite quickly.
"Okay, okay, don't rush me! My waist is about to fall apart...!"
The madam twisted her waist crazily and complained dissatisfiedly.
When I met the county magistrate, I complained even more fiercely, "Oh! Master, can you please take care of you later? These government servants don't know how to show mercy at all. They urged me eight hundred times along the way, and the soles of their feet were gone when I left." It’s going to smoke!”
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Have you brought the deed of sale?"
The county magistrate frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Hmph! Take it!"
The madam reluctantly took out a stack of paper from her arms, rolled her eyes, and slapped it on the county office table.
Just as the magistrate was about to reach out to take it, the madam put her hand on the stack of contracts again, "I can tell you, this stack of contracts is related to our entire Xiangmanlou. If you lose one, I will fight you to the death!" "
"Bring it to you quickly, don't worry, we are not interested in these contracts!"
The county magistrate took it away angrily.
"Hmph! I don't know about you yet? You may not be interested in other people's things, but you are not interested in Xianglian's? If I take advantage of my inattention and take her away, I will suffer a big loss! "
The madam rolled her eyes and muttered while holding her throat.
Ying Feiyu couldn't help but laugh.
As expected of someone who spends all day in a brothel, he really dares to say anything!
After getting the deed of sale, the county magistrate didn't bother to argue with her in vain and quickly rummaged through it!
After a while, he picked out a few pictures and approached Kang Anping, "Kang Shangshu, Your Highness the Crown Prince, look!"
"Look here...here...and here, it's different from the others!"
The county magistrate's sharp eyes noticed several oddities.
"Well! These deeds of sale are not registered with the government at all, but forged!"
Kang Anping nodded.
"What? Forged? How could there be a forgery?"
As soon as he heard this, the madam immediately became anxious. He quickly ran over and grabbed the several deeds of prostitution on the table in front of Kang Anping.
"These...these are all girls sold to me by Master Kuan. How could the contract be forged?"
After briefly reading through it, the madam's brows deepened and she seemed to have a bad premonition.
"You should understand now why we are looking for you, right?"
Kang Anping asked sternly with a cold face.
"Master Shangshu, I don't know. These contracts are all accompanied by girls, and those girls are also very docile. I have never doubted these contracts at all!"
It wasn't until it was pointed out that it was fake that the madam remembered to compare it with other contracts.
Only after this comparison did I realize that something was really not quite right!
"Sir, I really don't know what's going on. Please look into it!"
The madam plopped down and knelt on the ground again, tears falling down.
In this situation, at best she is the victim.
To put it mildly, it means abducting and selling women and forcing girls into prostitution!
"Master County Magistrate, you know that our brothel has always abided by the laws and regulations and has never done anything out of the ordinary! Last year, when there was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, our brothel even donated ten truckloads of food!"
After praying for Kang Anping, the old bustard went to the county magistrate again, hoping that he would be more lenient in view of his past performance.
This scene successfully made Ying Feiyu laugh.
Don't tell me, these guys are really interesting.
He gave in so quickly. When the situation turned bad, his attitude immediately changed without any hesitation!
"Okay, okay, we haven't said anything yet!"
It had only been a moment, but the county magistrate was already overwhelmed by his quarrel and was very impatient.
"Sir, won't it be too late by the time you speak?"
The madam muttered softly.
"Please make sure that the girls on the contracts were all bought from Feng Kuan? Is there no one else?"
Kang Anping had no time to listen to their quarrel. After glancing at the differences in the contract, he set his sights on the madam.
"That's right! These girls were all bought from Feng Kuan!"
This time the madam stopped talking nonsense and said firmly.
"Is there anything I missed?"
"No more! But everyone who was sold by Feng Kuan was picked out by you!"
The madam opened her mouth flatly.
"Did you read that correctly?"
"Don't worry, Master Shangshu. What I have to do every day is to manage and train these girls. How could I be wrong? Let's put it this way, if a hair of the girl in our Xiangmanlou falls off, I know who it belongs to!"
The madam guarantees that she can't go wrong.
"Do you know where Feng Kuan lives?"
Through the contract of betrayal, it is almost certain that Feng Kuan is in the same group as those in the mountains.
Over the past year or so, the cases of missing girls in the surrounding areas should be inseparable from him!
"Live in... residence... uh... this?"
When asked about this, the madam's always sharp mouth immediately began to hesitate.
Ying Feiyu and Kang Anping understood it immediately!
This guy must know, but he is afraid of implicating himself, so he has concerns and dare not speak out!
"It seems that the madam doesn't know Feng Kuan's address. Let's leave this case as it is. We don't need to investigate anymore. Anyway, we have found out that the deeds of sale are all fake. We will go back first and treat women as traffickers. , Force Liang to be punished for prostitution!"
"Yes, other missing cases in the surrounding area must be related to the Madam, so let's push them all together!"
Ying Feiyu and Kang Anping pretended to be serious and stood up leisurely to leave.
I don’t believe it. Is it more serious to abduct and sell a good woman, or to help the government investigate the case and reveal the address of the criminal?
