There is a black mole on the left side of the neck. Is it really Xu Yihao?
Shen Tianshu frowned when he heard this. This detail was mentioned by the black-faced man when he was in the northwest corner.
Like Shen Zhonglei, she immediately recognized it as Xu Yihao.
But when I calmed down and thought about it, Xu Yihao could really be that stupid. Would he do such a thing on his own, and would his features and appearance even be seen by others?
Shen Zhonglei said with a sullen face: "Come here, send the lady back to the inner house, find a doctor, and then bring the young master over."
Not long after, the yamen servants brought in some women, carried Xu out of the dungeon, and went to Xikuoyuan to find Xu Yihao.
Xu Yihao drank medicine in the evening and felt hot and uncomfortable for most of an hour. He finally waited for the medicine to wear off and just fell asleep when he was suddenly woken up by Lingxue.
"Looking for death!" Xu Yihao was furious.
"Master, I'm looking for you." Lianxue said cautiously, "It's something important, so I should go there quickly, otherwise I won't dare to disturb my rest."
Xu Yihao felt a little guilty when he heard that Shen Zhonglei was looking for him.
But although he dared to challenge Mrs. Xu, he did not dare to make a mistake in front of Shen Zhonglei. He stood up, dressed up, and followed the servants waiting outside the door to see Shen Zhonglei.
Who would have thought that this servant was leading the way, not to the main courtyard nor to Shen Zhonglei's study, but all the way to the Yamen in front.
"Where are we going?" Xu Yihao became more and more unsure as he walked and couldn't help but ask.
"Young Master Cousin, I'm at the Yamen now. Just come with me. I won't lead you astray."
He was thinking about whether he had left any mistakes along the way. As he walked, the servant who led the way said: "Young Master Biao, we are here."
When Xu Yihao heard this, he looked up and saw that it was the prison door of the government office. He immediately stopped and his legs felt a little weak.
He frowned and said, "Are you kidding me?"
"Young Master Cousin, look at what you said, how dare you kid to play tricks on you? My master is waiting for you inside!"
"Then I'll go in and take a look." Xu Yihao pretended to be calm and followed the servant into the dungeon, and unexpectedly saw Shen Zhonglei and Shen Tianshu there.
He glanced in Shen Tianshu's direction involuntarily. He hadn't seen her for a few days, and she seemed to be more beautiful than before.
She used to be very beautiful, but people always felt that something was missing, some charm.
Nowadays, the eyes are getting clearer and clearer, and the person's energy and spirit are different, as if a beautiful object has been given a soul, making it more and more attractive.
"My nephew has met my uncle. I don't know why my uncle called my nephew here." Xu Yihao greeted Shen Zhonglei politely, and then said to Shen Tianshu, "I didn't expect my sister to be here."
"Cousin." Shen Tianshu reluctantly greeted.
Shen Zhonglei's eyes swept across Xu Yihao's neck, and there was indeed an obvious black mole on the left side of his neck.
"Look, is it this person?" Shen Zhonglei said.
No one expected that the black-faced man would shake his head and say: "Sir, I have never seen this young master before."
Xu Yihao looked around inexplicably, laughed dryly and said, "Uncle, what on earth is going on?"
From Xu's behavior, Shen Zhonglei had already determined in his heart that it was related to Xu Yihao. At this time, seeing that the black-faced man failed to recognize the person, he was not in a hurry.
"I called you here mainly because I wanted to ask you how you got that paper bag wrapped with a handkerchief today." After all, Shen Zhonglei was someone who had been in the officialdom for several years, so he rounded off his words very skillfully. He said, "The two prisoners caught now neither admit that they came to deliver things, so I want to call you over to see if you can identify the prisoner, and then tell you in detail the specific situation at that time."
Although the black-faced man didn't understand what was going on, he still closed his mouth wisely.
"Look, is it this person?" Shen Zhonglei repeated the question he just asked, as if it was Shen Zhonglei he was asking from the beginning, and it was just the black-faced man who was too talkative and answered incorrectly.
Xu Yihao shook his head and said: "My nephew has never seen this person before. The person who bumped into me in the afternoon was about the same height as me, but his face was blocked so tightly that I couldn't see his face clearly at all.
"He was in the alley next to the Yamen. He was sneaky and had no eyes to walk with. After accidentally bumping into me, he threw the paper bag into my arms and ran away without looking back."
"What you said this afternoon seemed to be that the man threw the paper bag on the ground and you picked it up?"
Xu Yihao immediately said: "To be precise, it was the person who threw the paper bag into my arms, hit me and then dropped it to the ground. At that time, it fell a little open. I saw a corner of the silk handkerchief exposed inside, and I immediately felt Something was wrong, so I hurriedly brought my things to see my uncle.”
Compared with his previous remarks, Xu Yihao's words this time added a lot of details and were more reasonable.
"Well, it seems that the two of them didn't tell the truth. Maybe there are other accomplices." Shen Zhonglei stood up and said, "I'm really sorry that I bothered you to come over so late at night."
"My uncle is so outrageous when he says this." Xu Yihao thought that he had once again successfully passed the test. A flash of pride flashed through his eyes, and he said in a tone filled with righteous indignation, "These thieves are so rampant, they dare to kidnap people in broad daylight. The two sisters, thanks to their uncle's decisive action, caught the criminal so quickly and rescued the two sisters, otherwise it would be unthinkable.
"My nephew can't help much in finding the two sisters, but it's good to be able to help track down the criminal. It's a pity that things happened in a hurry, and my nephew didn't notice any more details. , I’m really ashamed.”
"It's okay, you've done a good job." After Shen Zhonglei said that, he ordered his subordinates to send Xu Yihao back to Xikuoyuan, and handed the black-faced man to the head catcher, "You ask someone to draw a portrait of the person he said. , send people out to look for them tomorrow."
The arrester left with the black-faced man, and Shen Zhonglei stood in the dungeon, staring at the ground in a daze.
"It's great that the matter has nothing to do with my cousin. It seems that I thought too much before. Fortunately, I didn't question my cousin on impulse. Otherwise, it would be really rude." Shen Tianshu raised his hand to touch his chest. "Dad, since the matter has nothing to do with my cousin, let's go back and see our mother quickly! My mother's sudden fainting just now scared me. She was already ill, and she was so frightened today. She definitely needs her family. Stay with me more..."
Shen Zhonglei said nothing, but his suspicion of Xu Yihao deepened.
Xu Yihao's performance just now was too impeccable. It was not at all the state he should be in when he was called in for questioning at short notice. He was clearly thinking out his words in advance.
This little trick was enough to deceive an inexperienced girl like Shen Tianshu, but it couldn't deceive Shen Zhonglei, who had been the prefect for many years.
