Chapter 45 You are well-informed
Su Nuobai looked at Wei Lixian who was sitting in front of him and handed over three buns: "Master Wei, what is this?"
Wei Lixian stuffed the bun into Feng Zhi's hand and said, "Master, since you can count the bodies in the wall, you should also know why I am here."
"You've dug a hole for me. If you don't fill it for me, I'll have a hard time explaining this to my superiors."
He had seen Su Nuobai's abilities, so he knew that she was the one who figured it out. He didn't even go back to the yamen, but directly bought three meat buns and sat in front of her stall.
Su Nuobai looked at the buns that Feng Zhi had put away. He had already received the divination fee, so he couldn’t just not help!
"Let's go. I'll go back to the government office with you and talk about it."
Wei Lixian immediately asked the yamen runners who followed him to help Su Nuobai clean up the stall.
Uncle Jia watched them leave and knew that there would be no fun today, so he could only start selling vegetables seriously.
Su Nuobai went directly to the morgue, and the ghost floating next to the corpse was the deceased.
Wei Lixian hurried over and said, "The deceased's name is Mao Yongshou. He was a merchant who came to Shengjing to purchase goods. He was engaged in the business of bird's nest."
"He came to Shengjing half a year ago and placed an order with a merchant. No one has seen him since."
"The merchants who placed orders didn't even wait for him to pay, and they still said he had no credit."
Su Nuobai looked at Mao Yongshou's soul and asked, "Do you remember how you died?"
Mao Yongshou saw that someone could see him, and immediately floated over: "You, you can see me?"
Su Nuobai looked at his smashed head, with red and white things still everywhere, and pushed some away with her hands in disgust.
Nowadays these ghosts don’t pay attention to their appearance.
Wei Lixian, the coroner, and the yamen runner beside him all had their hair standing on end when they heard what she said.
They stared around nervously, afraid that a ghost would suddenly appear and scare them to death.
Su Nuobai rolled his eyes at them and said, "You must have very bad luck to see these things."
"Plus, one of you is a yamen runner, and you have both righteousness and evil spirits. Ordinary ghosts will stay away from you and won't easily provoke you."
She looked at the coroner again and said, "You don't have to be afraid. You have the light of merit and virtue. You have sought justice for them. They will all bless you."
Wei Lixian saw that she didn't mention himself, and looked at her expectantly: "What about me?"
Su Nuobai took a look at Wei Lixian's face. He had a round head, thick feet, a straight body, a pair of beautiful eyes and two curved eyebrows. He was a second or third rank official.
"Lord Wei is an honest official, so he naturally has nothing to fear."
Everyone in the room except Su Nuobai and Feng Zhi breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Nuobai saw that he couldn't get anything out of Mao Yongshou, so he had to think of other ways.
He cut a strip of cloth from the clothes Mao Yongshou was wearing, took out the folded paper crane, and lit the strip of cloth.
Watching the smoke rising from the cloth strips as they burned, she drew out a wisp of smoke from the middle and stuffed it into the paper crane, muttering something.
Wei Lixian and the others saw the paper crane flying in the air and rubbed their eyes unconsciously.
Su Nuobai looked at the yamen runner behind him and said, "Follow the paper crane! As for whether this person is in Shengjing or somewhere else, I don't know."
Wei Lixian's mouth twitched: "You mean, he might have left Shengjing."
"I can't rule out the possibility. It's already been half a year, and this is all I can do to help you."
Su Nuobai shrugged helplessly. There was really not much useful information about Mao Yongshou. No one knew who killed him.
Half a year has passed, and it is still unknown whether the person can be found.
Wei Lixian frowned. This was easy to deal with in Shengjing, as it was within his jurisdiction. But if it happened outside of Shengjing, it would be difficult for him to intervene.
"Master, how long can this paper crane last?"
Su Nuobai thought for a moment and said, "I'm not sure if I can find it. If he lost it, I might not be able to find it."
"After all, this scent was obtained from Mao Yongshou. I can't guarantee it to you."
There is no face, no horoscope, nothing at all. No matter how good you are, you can't figure out who it is.
Wei Lixian frowned: "I need to ask the Ministry of Justice to issue an official document."
After he said that, he turned and left.
Su Nuobai reached out and threw Mao Yongshou's soul into a talisman, rubbed it and threw it into his backpack.
The little paper man in her arms stuck out his little head and saw it, and suddenly realized that he was treated quite well and even had a paper man's body.
Lu Heyu came to the yamen in his official uniform and saw her sleeping in a very unpresentable manner leaning against a pillar.
He handed the document in his hand to the yamen runner behind him and asked him to deliver it to Wei Lixian, then walked over to sit next to Su Nuobai.
"Didn't you sleep well?"
Su Nuobai opened her eyes slightly and saw that it was him, then closed them again: "Why are you here?"
"I heard that there was a case of a body hidden in a wall in Shengjing today, so I came to take a look out of curiosity." Lu Heyu turned around but didn't see Feng Zhi.
"Feng Zhi is not with you?"
"He went to buy me food." Su Nuobai opened his eyes and leaned against the pillar listlessly.
Wei Lixian got the official document and called the yamen runners to bring them over: "Master, everyone is here."
Lu Heyu got some news: "If the paper crane doesn't find anyone where it goes, it will ask along the way to see if anyone has suddenly become rich in the past six months."
"Have you ever been to Shengjing? I know your whereabouts over the past six months."
"Yes!" The yamen runners took it to heart.
Su Nuobai looked at Lu Heyu and thought he was really smart!
We know that this person may throw away some things on the road, but we can check along the way. Although it takes a little time, it has to be said that it is a method.
Wei Lixian also arranged for people to investigate those who had contact with Mao Yongshou in the past six months. These people were the key targets of investigation.
Su Nuobai looked towards the morgue: "Won't Mao Yongshou's body be sent back to his family?"
Lu Heyu smiled and said, "The case is not over yet. When it is over, someone will take him back. You can meet them when they come back soon."
Su Nuobai became interested when he heard him say that: "Corpse driver."
Before Lu Heyu could say anything, two people came jumping in from outside.
"Master Wei, we are here to retrieve the body."
Su Nuobai saw that the two people were wearing unique clothes. The girl was wearing a colorful short skirt and silver accessories on her body, which made crisp sounds as she walked.
A young man followed behind her, and his eyes were full of doting as he looked at the girl in front of him.
Wei Lixian saw the two of them and said with a smile: "Miss Miao Miao, Master Miao Jiang, I am going to trouble you again this time."
Miao Miao smiled and waved her hand: "We also received money."
Miao Jiang saw Lu Heyu and Su Nuobai and saluted them: "Master Lu."
Lu Heyu nodded: "I may have to make another trip when you come back."
Miao Miao smiled and said, "Is it the corpse hidden in the wall today?"
Wei Lixian looked at the two of them and said, "You are well-informed."
