Among the six doors, no one has really thought about it in this direction, but fortunately, the individual amounts of each item spent by Pucheshi have been learned from previous interviews with the villagers, and all the police detectives have begun to add and subtract. Multiply and divide, trying to figure out Mr. Pu's account flow.
A quarter of an hour later, a catcher gave a very precise answer: "Master Qi and Miss Zhuo, the expenses for the Pu carriage attendant for the past two days should total 755 taels."
"That's wrong." As soon as the number came out, Zhuo Jing immediately denied it.
The catcher became anxious: "It can't be wrong. We worked together to check and calculate it several times, and we are sure it is this number."
"I don't mean that this number is inaccurate, but I want to say that the 755 taels of money does not match the total amount of banknotes carried by Pu Che Shi."
"Oh?" Qi Xianke's eyes flashed: "You actually know how much gold and silver the Pu chariot attendant has with him?"
Zhuo Jing nodded: "Yes, Mr. Pu has a very strict attitude towards Pu Che Shi, his only son, and deliberately restricts his lavish spending behavior. This has developed his habit of hiding private money behind the old man's back. According to me As far as I know, this amount should be around 3,000 taels, but what he is currently spending in Jie Tang Village is less than 30% of the total."
"Is the Pu family really so rich? Even the eldest son has saved three thousand taels of private money, which is almost equal to my salary for more than ten years."
Even though he was a god-catcher gifted by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, he could break his defense in one second in front of Versailles of this level. However, Qi Xianke did not say the above-mentioned thoughts. Putting those irrelevant thoughts behind, Qi Xianke asked the important point: "But how are you sure that Pu Chai Shi took all his three thousand taels with him when he fled Pu's house?"
"Yesterday afternoon, after Deputy Lin rode away, he left me in Pu Mansion to collect clues." Zhuo Jing fell into memories: "I carefully searched the residence of the Pu chariot attendant, and there was not even a copper plate left there. I’m sure Pu Che Chai will only hide all his private money everywhere in the Gongzi Building where he lives, and there will be absolutely no exceptions.”
"Miss Zhuo is truly worthy of being Pu Che Shi's teacher. She even knows these secrets clearly. In other words, Pu Che Shi still has at least two thousand taels of silver notes on her body." Qi Xianke frowned. Frowning, he was puzzled by Pu Che Shi's behavior of spending money like water in this village: "Of course, the prerequisite is that he has no other expenses. It's so weird, Pu Che Shi and Yun Ming, what on earth do these two people want to do... "
Zhuo Jing was silent for a while, then suddenly said abruptly: "It's a pity, we don't have enough manpower."
"Why did the girl say this?"
"Because now, we should divide our forces into two groups." Unfolding the map of the Gyeonggi area, Zhuo Jing began to scold Fang Qiu: "After leaving the capital, we searched for any trace of Yunpu and Lin He or Deputy Commander Lin He along the road, but there was no sign of them. No results. It wasn't until we arrived at Jie Tang Village that we gained something. At least we were sure that Pu Che Shi and Yun Ming had stayed here for some time, for unknown purposes, and spent a lot of money. Buying properties on a large scale."
"Since we can't figure out their purpose, we should leave some people in Jitang Village to investigate the matter clearly; the rest will continue on the road and pursue the original plan in the direction of Tianjin."
Qi Xianke pointed at the map, his heart full of embarrassment: "What the girl said is true, but we only have so few troops, so it is impossible to divide the troops."
At this time, it was the arrester who had previously asked Zhao to return to the capital for help.

He jumped out quickly and said: "Master Qi, I am willing to whip the horse and return to the capital as soon as possible..."
Then came the imitators: "Sir, I am also willing to go with you!"
"I am willing to go there too!"
"Down here..."
Faced with the raging public sentiment, Qi Xianke looked at the map calmly, as if if the piece of paper was stared at for long enough, a flower would bloom. Seeing that Qi Xianke's mind was wandering, the group of police officers slowly made their petitions quieter.
"Haha, that's a little clever."
Qi Xianke looked at the picture calmly, then suddenly let out a chuckle and some unexplained comment.
"grown ups?"
"Oh? Oh... I'm sorry, I lost my composure." Qi Xianke put down the map, and when he spoke again, his tone was already full of confidence: "Please wait a moment, gentlemen, I mean... there is no need to divide the troops, so naturally there is no need to send anyone back. Please help the city."
"Sir, what does this mean?" The subordinates expressed their confusion.
"It's just the most rational choice. Let's take a look here first. How many villages and towns are there along the entire Beijing-Tianjin Road? This Jietang Village is our first stop. We can still divide it into two groups. If we continue What should we do if we encounter a situation like the one in Jitang Village? How should we divide our troops?"
"It's better to simply not divide the troops at this time and directly concentrate on finding out the conspiracy behind this place. This is the best strategy. As for asking for help...have you forgotten that the disappearance of Deputy Envoy Jinyi Lin is very involved, and it is really not appropriate to make a big deal about it. Therefore, Don’t talk about sending more manpower in the future, we are enough.”
At this point, Qi Xianke stopped, picked up a cup of tea and moistened his throat, and then continued: "There is another point that is just my personal guess. I just thought of it, that Pu Chai Attendant, Yun Ming, have It is very likely that he is still in Jietang Village at this moment."
"Why?" The person who spoke this time was the policeman who advocated the "tactic of luring the tiger away from the mountain".
"Your idea is actually not completely unreasonable. Most people, including me, at the beginning, only thought that everything that happened in Jitang Village was just a conspiracy by the thieves to lure us into a trap and waste time and energy here. "
"But then Miss Zhuo woke me up with something - the money was wrong."
"What's wrong? Naturally, the cost of building this trap is too high!"
Qi Xianke paused for a while to give the audience some time to react. Soon, there were echoes from the audience.
There are no idiots in this team, and there is no need for Qi Xianke to go on to talk about anything in depth. Everyone can understand: Yes, if Yun Ming and Pu Che Shi just want to lead the task force astray and kill Liu Fan Given the strength of the door, they shouldn't have spent so much money to do this trick.
Then think about it on the other hand, why do the two of them want to run several major industries in Jitang Village at all costs? The answer is ready to come out - this is the hiding place of Yun Ming and Pu Che Shi! Only in this way can it be explained.
"It seems that everyone understands." Qi Xianke glanced at everyone and was very satisfied with their understanding: "It can be said that by confirming the positions of those two people, half of our goal of this trip has been achieved. , the only thing left is to find them and find out the whereabouts of Deputy Commander Lin He."
When everyone saw the dawn of victory, one person jumped out and poured cold water on everyone to cool down. She was Zhuo Jing: "But Mr. Qi, after confirming this
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
While the ground is a den of thieves run by Yun Ming and Pu Che Shi, it also means that we have probably been exposed to their surveillance since we entered Jie Tang Village. "
"I've thought of this too." Qi Xianke admired Zhuo Jing's agility and wisdom: "But don't forget, Pu Che Shi and Yun Ming are not powerful at all."
"I'm stupid, please tell me clearly."
"They fled here in a hurry and did not make any arrangements in Jitang Village in advance. Therefore, the only people who can act as sentinels and keep track of them are ordinary villagers in Jitang Village.
"I think since they are just ordinary people who have been bribed by Puche's money, it should be relatively easy to deal with them."
After Qi Xianke explained, he received another wave of flattery:
"Your Majesty, please be clear!"
"Master Qi's words are like clearing the sky and seeing the sun, it's like a sudden enlightenment!"
"Your Excellency is worthy of being the best arrester in the world in the Ming Dynasty. Wherever he goes, thieves and bandits are restrained."
Qi Xianke has heard this kind of flattery a lot, so he is still calm in his heart; but then again, no matter how much his subordinates praise him, it is not too exaggerated. Qi Xianke is indeed worthy of the title of "criminal killer" .
One of the catchers raised a very pertinent question: "Sir, we have visited all the inns in Jie Tang Village before and found no trace of the two thieves, which means they must be hiding in the houses. Jie Tang Village is a big village, and there are There are hundreds of households, and we rely on the current manpower to eliminate and target the target buildings step by step, so I am afraid it will be difficult."
"Don't be anxious, I have already thought of a plan." The smug Qi Xianke struck while the iron was hot and explained the plan to his subordinates: "We might as well use the plan to lure the snake out of its hole."
"Your Majesty, you want us to pretend we don't know anything about the above inference and put on a show?"
"Yeah, exactly."
Qi Xianke nodded approvingly and said: "Although we lost the first move and every move at the moment is under the eyes of the thieves, this also gives us the conditions to cover up the situation and sneak into Chencang."
"Those villagers who are responsible for monitoring our movements will definitely go back and inform the Puche attendants if they see any trouble here. As long as someone can lead the way, then this is our opportunity."
"What a brilliant idea." Zhuo Jing's eyes lit up when she heard this plan: "Pu Che Shi and Yun Ming don't know how far we have reached in our reasoning. We can just use this to try to calculate back."
Seeing that everyone understood, Qi Xianke smiled and said, "Yes, as for how to get those two big fish to bite the hook, let's discuss it carefully."
…………
The chess game in the void between Yun Ming and Qi Xianke, two generals belonging to their respective camps, has come to an end for the time being. The result is a 50-50 draw, and the two are evenly matched.
In this battle of wits between police and robbers, Yun Ming, as the gangster, completely ignored the factor of total amount of money, which directly led to the exposure of his own position; while Qi Xianke, on the other hand, basically ignored the extra elements in the enemy team. He knew nothing about the three top Jianghu guests, and then caused a misjudgment of manpower allocation in the formulation of follow-up actions. In short, the performance of this round of offensive and defensive confrontation between the two sides was remarkable and evenly matched.
As the night approaches, the next round...
Yun Ming is ready to play his cards.
