Shen Chuchu looked at Zhao Feng with some confusion and asked Zhao Feng.
"Mr. Zhao, what are we going to do out of the city so late? Are we trying to get those fabrics back?"
Zhao Feng nodded and said to Shen Chuchu.
"Those fabrics are very precious, and they are all high-quality products from the Shen family. There are only two possibilities for these fabrics to be stolen. Either someone does not want your Shen family's fabrics to be sent to the capital, or someone is simply motivated by wealth. "
"No matter what the reason is, these fabrics should not have been destroyed yet, so we should still go over and search carefully to see if there are any clues."
Shen Chuchu nodded quickly, and the servants also said to Zhao Feng.
"Mr. Zhao, after we noticed that the fabric was stolen, we left two companions there to guard the inn. We came over quickly to report the news!"
Zhao Feng suddenly laughed, patted their shoulders with great satisfaction, and then turned to Shen Chuchu and said.
"You see, the fact that these servants can be selected for such an important task shows that their minds are still very bright. Thanks to them leaving people there."
When Shen Chuchu heard this, she had no choice but to nod her head and said to the servants.
"Humph, I'll settle the score with you this time when I get back."
The servants felt as if they had been granted amnesty. At this time, every one of them prayed that Zhao Feng could find the lost fabrics.
Several people quickly mounted their horses and rushed to the county seat next to the capital overnight, where the servants stayed.
Arriving at the door of an inn, the servants pointed at the inn's signboard and said.
"Miss, Mr. Zhao, this is where we stayed last night!"
"The county magistrate here heard that the Shen family's fabrics were intercepted, and he is also helping to investigate the case."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Feng couldn't help but shook his head slightly.
Near the capital, at the feet of the emperor, if someone dares to steal these fabrics, they are definitely not afraid of the county magistrate here to pursue them. It is not even certain whether the magistrate here is with those people.
So Zhao Feng said directly to the servants.
"Go over and pick a few rooms, and then tell us what happened last night in detail."
The servants quickly opened the door of the inn, opened several rooms amidst the very dissatisfied mutterings of the waiter, and then led Zhao Feng to the door of a room and introduced to Zhao Feng.
"Mr. Zhao, we stayed in this room last night, and all the fabrics were also in this room!"
"But when we woke up, the fabrics had disappeared! We had to quickly report it to the government and let the officials check here, but no clues were found."
Zhao Feng nodded slightly when he heard this and walked directly into the room. It was a multi-person room with five or six beds. It could be seen that the servants also knew how precious these fabrics were, so they lived with them. Inside the room, but unexpectedly the fabrics were stolen.
The servant pointed to the beds and continued to talk to Zhao Feng.
"We packed all the fabrics in a big box with a seal on it. In order to protect the fabrics, we moved the bed into a circle and slept around the box."
"But no sound was heard all night, and according to the watchman, no one entered last night."
Zhao Feng was suddenly surprised and asked the servants.
"There was actually a watchman last night? Didn't he discover anything?"
"When was that box lost?"
The servant who spoke before quickly pulled out a servant who was staying here and asked him very seriously.
"Mr. Zhao and the eldest lady are here. Please tell me, what happened last night?"
The servant did not dare to raise his head to look at Zhao Feng and Shen Chuchu. His eyes were always evasive, as if he was very afraid of being blamed.
"Miss, eldest lady, I was responsible for keeping vigil last night and kept guard at the door. But suddenly when I turned around, I realized that the big box was missing!"
"I thought it would be safe if no one came in at the door, but I didn't expect that the box would just disappear!"
As he said this, he knelt on the ground and begged Shen Chuchu.
"Miss, please punish me! It's me who deserves to die for not protecting these fabrics!"
When Shen Chuchu heard this, she was immediately angry and wanted to go up and kick the servant.
But Zhao Feng stopped Shen Chuchu, directly pulled the servant up from the ground, looked into his eyes tightly and said.
"you are lying."
The servant couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then quickly defended with his eyes widened.
"I really didn't lie, everything I said is true!"
Zhao Feng chuckled and said to the servant.
"First point, if you really haven't slept all night, your eyes should be bloodshot at this time, and there may even be dark circles."
"But not only are there no red bloodshot eyes in your eyes, but your whole spirit is not depressed at all, which means you slept soundly last night!"
"The second point is that people will subconsciously look to the right when they are recalling, but they will look to the left when they are lying!"
Zhao Feng said this, grabbed the servant's collar with force, and asked in a stern voice.
"Now that you have made a mistake, these fabrics are enough for the Shen family to hold you accountable for a crime that was not investigated by the supervision. Do you still want to make all these family brothers die with you because of your own fault?"
Hearing Zhao Feng's words, Gading was so frightened that he became paralyzed. After Zhao Feng let go, he collapsed on the ground like a pile of mud, and then nodded in despair and said.
"Yes, I lied. Somehow last night, I suddenly felt sleepy and fell asleep!"
"I was the first to wake up the next day and found that the box with the cloth bag was missing, so I quickly woke up the others."
He said this, directly covering his face in pain.
"Miss, this matter is all my fault. If you want to punish me, then punish me!"
Shen Chuchu was so angry that she almost lost her temper. She didn't expect that these people had been cautious for so long along the way, but in this inn, all the fabrics were stolen because of his negligence!
Shen Chuchu was about to have a seizure, but Zhao Feng shook his head, walked directly to the door, gently picked at a piece of window paper, and directly peeled off a carefully cut piece of paper.
Seeing the window paper in Zhao Feng's hand, Shen Chuchu suddenly asked strangely.
"What's this?"
