Can't afford to mess with the fast-traveling boss

"what news?"

In a place like Juchun Building, people come and go every day is the most mixed, there are all kinds of people.You can hear and see more.

He Gu would often come to Juchun Tower to inquire about news, and when he encountered any case that he couldn't figure out, he would come here to sit for a while, and he would often have some unexpected gains.

In addition, Chunniang would deliberately help He Gu pay attention, so He Gu could indeed get a lot of help.

This time, I didn't think about getting any information from Chun Niang. Regarding the news about the theft, even the people in the yamen are at a loss. What useful news can Chun Niang get?

So this time I really brought Shao Jing over for a meal, but I didn't expect Chunniang to actually gain something.

When the case was brought up, both He Gu and Shao Jing's expressions became serious.

Before Chunniang opened her mouth, she deliberately walked to the door of the private room, opened the door and looked outside.After confirming that there was no one else outside, he closed the door and walked back to sit down.

Neither He Gu nor Shao Jing interrupted her, they just stared at her the whole time.

After Chunniang sat down, she leaned forward and said in a low voice, "Didn't you investigate the theft again recently? I heard that Zhang Yuanwai's house was also stolen two days ago. It is said that a Donghai night pearl was lost. Yes or no?"

He Gu frowned: "How do you know?"

The progress of the case has always been kept confidential. If someone in the yamen did not leak it, others would not know too many details.It is true that Zhang Yuan's family lost the night pearl of the East China Sea, but the Yamen did not announce the news to the public.

In order to cooperate with the work of the yamen, Zhang Yuanwai only said that he lost the dowry prepared for his daughter.

But I didn't expect Chunniang to know so clearly, which obviously didn't conform to common sense.

Seeing He Gu's expression, Chunniang snorted softly, "Why are you looking at me like that? I didn't specifically inquire about the case handling in your yamen, but just happened to hear someone mention it in the building the day before yesterday."

"Someone mentioned the theft of Zhang Yuanwai's house in the building?" He Gu's brows frowned even tighter.

It is unlikely that someone in the yamen will bring up the case in such a public place.The officials in the yamen didn't dare to break the law so blatantly, they couldn't bear the consequences.

Then it could only be someone from Zhang's mansion.Except for the people in the yamen, only the people in the Zhang Mansion knew what was lost in the Zhang Mansion.

Zhang Yuanwai did say that he would restrain the people in the mansion and not let them go out and talk nonsense.But there are many people in the Zhang family, and there will always be some unruly servants who will talk badly.

This is not something incomprehensible, but if this is the case, it will cause a lot of trouble for the Yamen.

"I know what you're thinking. But I saw that the person who spoke was a stranger, and he didn't look like someone from the Zhang family." Chun Niang said.

He Gu still frowned: "Are you sure?"

Chunniang thought for a while, then waved her hand and said, "Oh, maybe it's a newcomer in Zhang's mansion, or maybe it's a house slave who doesn't come out very often in Zhang's mansion. Anyway, I recognize those who often come out, not any of them."

He Gu thought about it carefully.There are not many servants in the Zhang Mansion, and everyone in the town has seen them. If there is anyone who you haven't seen, it may only be the servants that the Zhang Mansion bought back recently.

But recently I haven't heard that Zhang's mansion has bought new servants to go back.

"Do you also feel that something is wrong?" Chunniang saw He Gu's doubts, and continued, "The town is so big, and it takes only half a day to know what happened. If a stranger suddenly appears, it will inevitably happen. Get everyone's attention."

"Has no one noticed that unfamiliar face?" Shao Jing asked suspiciously.

Chunniang looked at Shao Jing, her eyes brightened slightly: "That's what I want to say! Where did that person appear from? But he seems to know everyone very well, and he can chat with everyone, yes Everyone knows their situation well and seems to have lived in this town for a long time."

Shao Jing and He Gu looked at each other, their eyes filled with surprise.

"To be honest, even I was almost caught in it at the beginning. When he came to talk to me, his attitude was very familiar, and I was led into his trap by him for a while. Later, I thought about it carefully , the more I thought about it, the more strange it became. Only then did I realize something was wrong."

"What about after that?" He Gu asked.

Chun Niang said: "I have been observing him quietly since then, and found that this man has a familiar attitude with the people in the town. Not only that, the people in the town don't think there is anything wrong."

"Then how did you notice something was wrong?" Shao Jing asked curiously.

Chun Niang smiled triumphantly: "It's not for nothing that I've been able to live in this town until today!"

Shao Jing was even more puzzled.

He Gu explained kindly: "Chun Niang has a very good memory, especially when she recognizes people. He can never forget anyone he has met once."

Shao Jing looked at Chunniang in amazement, and Chunniang couldn't help but giggle.

"Hehehe... He Gu, where did you abduct this young master from? It's so interesting! I'm really a little moved!"

He Gu glanced at the knife and flew over, Chunniang immediately returned to seriousness.

"Oh, it's just a joke!" Chunniang said resentfully.

He Gu was too lazy to take care of her.

Shao Jing also pretended not to hear what he said just now, and instead asked, "If Chunniang sees that person again, will she recognize him?"

"It's natural!" Chun Niang said without hesitation.

Shao Jing looked at He Gu: "Since that's the case, why not let Chun Niang personally recognize the person?"

He Gu shook his head: "It's not that simple. First of all, we are not sure that the person is from the Zhang family; moreover, if that person is really from the Zhang family, we will easily startle the snake if we go so rashly."

"Then what should we do?" Shao Jing was taken aback by He Gu's words.

He Gu shook his head, looking thoughtful.Obviously also thinking about how to deal with this matter.

Chun Niang propped her chin with one hand, and looked at the two with an ambiguous smile on her face.After he had seen enough, he opened his mouth again and said, "Besides, there is one more thing I want to tell you."

Shao Jing and He Gu looked at Chun Niang in unison.

Chun Niang showed a bright smile, and said quietly: "After I realized that there was something wrong with that person, I already asked someone to investigate. That person is indeed from the Zhang family, but he is just a newcomer recruited by the Zhang family. It’s been less than half a month since I entered Zhang’s mansion, that is, I just arrived at Zhang’s mansion not long before the theft happened.”

Chunniang's words made He Gu and Haojing Qiqi fall silent.

After a while, He Gu slowly asked, "What's his name?"

Chunniang suddenly covered her mouth and burst out laughing, and it took a long while before she stopped.

"His name is Liu Ying. The name may be fake, so you have to investigate it yourself. That's all I know."
