After Mr. Jiang and the others fell asleep, Yu Zizhen, with the help of the system, avoided the patrolling guards, climbed over the wall of the inn, hid his tracks all the way, and went straight to the county jail.
At this moment, she no longer looked like a child. After using the one-time "disguise" skill exchanged from the system, she decisively changed herself back to her previous life's appearance temporarily.
As for the transformation function that allows you to pinch your own face, which is simply a miracle, Yu Zizhen thinks the system should not name it "disguise", but should directly call it "transformation".
After the transformation, Yu Zizhen felt that this body was extremely easy to use.
In addition, she had a baby-voice system in her mind that could detect the surrounding environment in real time, remind her of the correct route, and help her avoid irrelevant people. It could be said that her journey from the inn to the county government office was not difficult at all.
After sneaking smoothly outside the county government office, Yu Zizhen did not sneak into the prison immediately.
She hid at the entrance of a dark alley and used "disguise" to change herself into a new look.
This new look is based on the criminal lawyer of the Baofeng County Magistrate, who is also the biological brother of the Baofeng County Magistrate's third concubine.
One of these siblings works as a legal advisor to the Baofeng County Magistrate, while the other is the only wife the Baofeng County Magistrate brought with him to take office. They have complete control over the Baofeng County government.
Look, Yu Zizhen disguised himself as him, and the gatekeepers didn't dare to question him why he came in from outside instead of helping the county magistrate entertain guests inside.
The first moment they saw Master Liu, they immediately jumped up from the threshold in a panic, bowed and greeted him with auspicious words.
After all, Yu Zizhen was a fake "Master Liu". She didn't dare to stay in front of anyone who was familiar with Master Liu for a long time. After waving her hand casually, she imitated Master Liu's walking posture and continued to walk in with a square step, swaying three times with one step.
It was the first time that the two yamen runners were not reprimanded for being lazy, and they felt a little uncomfortable.
After realizing what they were thinking about, the two of them joked with each other for a few words, and then sat on the doorstep again and continued to be lazy.
Having passed the checkpoint smoothly, Yu Zizhen continued to walk forward without looking around. With the precise navigation of the system, she soon arrived at the office of the Baofeng County Government.
There should have been someone on duty at the office all the time, but the situation was special tonight. In order to entertain those officials and eunuchs from the capital, all the people in the Baofeng County Government were transferred by their county magistrate to help entertain the guests.
The county magistrate, county lieutenant, legal advisors and the like were responsible for seating guests, while yamen runners and clerks were responsible for running errands and doing miscellaneous work behind the scenes. In short, no one was idle.
Thanks to the county magistrate, the only multiple-choice question Yu Zizhen needed to solve right now was "should I climb in through the window or sneak in through the door and pick the lock?", which was an easy choice anyway.
In the end, Yu Zizhen, who didn't really want to climb out the window, used a thin hairpin to poke open the lock hanging on the office door. The lock was large in size but had a very simple internal structure.
She closed the door, lit the oil lamp, and then, with the help of the small voice system, quickly found the blank pass in a corner of the office.
She pulled out a dozen or so sheets, then, in the dim light of the oil lamp, opened the lock, took out the official seal, dipped it in ink, and stamped one sheet after another.
The Da Qi's road permits had a fixed format. Although the personal information that needed to be filled in the blanks varied, the set phrases written on them and the locations where the seals were stamped by various government offices were all similar.
Yu Zizhen knew very well that her calligraphy skills were not good enough, so she did not dare to write the necessary information such as the name, identity, age, hometown of the applicant and his companions, as well as the reason for going out, destination, and checkpoints to pass. But she could stamp the three words "Baofeng County"...
After stamping the document with swift movements, he put the seal back in its place and locked the drawer. Then Yu Zizhen blew out the oil lamp and walked out of the office carrying the dried blank pass.
She locked the big lock on the door back to its original state, and then ran straight to the county government prison cell facing Mr. Liu's face.
It was late at night and there were only four people guarding the cell. Yu Zizhen, relying on the fact that he was using Master Liu's face, walked directly to the small table where the four people were drinking and gambling.
When the four men saw him and were about to stand up and salute, Yu Zizhen got ahead of them and mumbled "No need for the salute".
Although her voice was a man's at this time, the system had limited voice templates for her to choose from, so it was impossible for her to completely imitate Master Liu's voice.
In order to avoid revealing the truth, she could only speak as little as possible.
After handing a bag of braised pig ears to the jailer, Yu Zizhen walked into the prison in a very arrogant manner.
The jailer and others wanted to follow, but Yu Zizhen waved at them without even turning his head.
The jailer was worried. He had a feeling that Mr. Liu, who was highly regarded by the county magistrate, was most likely planning something bad.
The other three were different from him. They didn't care what Master Liu was trying to do by coming to the prison late at night. Having meat to eat was the most important thing for them.
The three of them couldn't wait to open the oil paper package. One of them even called out to the prison boss to pick up his chopsticks while peeling off the oil paper, "Boss, hurry up and eat it while it's hot!"
They also knew that the county magistrate was hosting a banquet at the county government office tonight to entertain distinguished guests. If they hadn't had the chance, they would have really wanted to go there to get some benefits.
People in their line of work have low salaries and low status. Even if they have some gray income, it is basically used to support their parents, wives and children. They are very greedy for good things like wine and meat.
It’s this Master Liu, he’s really stingy. You said he took everything, so why didn’t he give them some bigger pieces of meat?
If we don't have fat chickens and ducks, fragrant pork belly would be nice too! Or even some pig liver and pig heart.
The three men complained in their hearts while staring at the jailer, urging him to pick up his chopsticks quickly with their eyes.
The jailer thought more and more that something was wrong, "No, I still have to go in and take a look."
Their Master Liu would not normally stoop to such lowly places as to wander around in their prison. He even disdains to pay attention to those of them who are doing unlucky work.
But tonight, Master Liu not only came, he even brought them a bag of pig ears...
It's outrageous.
The jailer felt more and more uneasy the more he thought about it, and he wanted to chase after "Master Liu".
"Hey, boss." One of his minions quickly grabbed him. "That guy waved his hand to stop you from following, but you refused to listen. Do you think he'll let you go later?"
The jailer was grabbed by him and couldn't help but feel suspicious.
He quietly peeked inside the dark cell, then lowered his voice to his younger brother, "But I'm always worried. What on earth is he up to by being so mysterious?"
