Chapter 51 Two Dead
It was dawn.
Suddenly, there was a burst of crying in the cell.
Baozhu, who was on duty, was startled.
He got up with a thud.
He saw the female kidnapper crying loudly.
She cried and pushed the dwarf beside her: "Boss, boss, what's wrong with you? Help, this ointment is poisonous, someone, someone come quickly."
However, no matter how loud she cried or how hard she pushed, the peddler had already stopped breathing.
Baozhu, the intern editor, encountered this for the first time and was a little panicked. Where could he find someone so early in the morning? No one had come to the government office to report.
He stood at the door of the cell and looked around.
He saw a tall figure, like a savior.
"Mr. Jiang." Baozhu shouted.
Jiang Changtian walked over and asked, "Captain Liu, what's the matter?"
Baozhu was panicking at first, but when he was called Captain Liu, he subconsciously straightened his chest and blushed.
"Yes, it's like this. One of the two kidnappers seems to be in trouble. I don't know what happened. Mr. Jiang, don't you know about medicine? Can you help take a look?"
"Captain Liu, although I know a little about medicine, he is a serious criminal, so it's not easy for me to go in and see him. Besides, it involves my family. Can I take a look outside?"
Baozhu felt very respected when he heard Mr. Jiang calling him Captain Liu. He just nodded.
Jiang Changtian followed Baozhu to the cell where the two kidnappers were imprisoned.
When the peddler's wife Juan'er saw the newcomer, she felt that he was very noble. Could this be the noble who was pleading for her and her husband?
Juan'er hugged her husband, knelt down on her knees, and kowtowed.
"Sir, please save my master. He, he, please help me call a doctor. My master is dying."
Jiang Changtian took out a piece of silk cloth with aqua blue patterns and covered his nose with it.
He said to Baozhu, "Captain Liu, please move aside. I'm worried that it's a serious disease. What if it spreads?"
Hearing this, Baozhu immediately stepped back a long way.
He hasn't married yet.
Jiang Changtian said to the people in the cell, "Pinch his philtrum and see if it moves."
Juan'er pinched it hard, but the peddler didn't move.
Jiang Changtian shook his head and said, "Looking at the appearance, he must be dead, maybe he died in the middle of the night. You were sleeping so soundly that you didn't notice it? Tsk tsk, looking at the expression, he must have died of pain, died silently in pain. You were sleeping beside him, didn't you hear it?"
Juan'er was confused. How could it be? Did the master call her in the middle of the night
? Was the master in pain before he died?
How could she not know ?
She widened her eyes and tried to refute. She looked
up at the nobleman, but saw that he was covering his nose with a silk cloth, looking disgusted with the dirt.
Suddenly her eyes fell on the silk cloth in the nobleman's hand. Only
then did she realize that the nobleman was wearing coarse cloth, and only the silk cloth in his hand was the most gorgeous.
And the more she looked at the silk cloth, the more familiar it became.
"My dear nobleman, where did you get this handkerchief?"
Jiang Changtian said to the woman in the cell, "I am not a nobleman, I am a victim. Among the three girls you kidnapped, two are my own daughters."
Juan'er suddenly dropped her husband from her arms and stood up suddenly, as if she was going to rush out.
She yelled at Jiang Changtian, "I ask you, where did you get this handkerchief?"
Jiang Changtian unfolded the silk cloth that covered his nose. It was a beautiful silk cloth, but it was stained with some dirt, dotted with red.
"My wife gave me this. I don't know where she got it from. Although it's made of silk, it's stained with blood. But the fabric is good and I couldn't bear to throw it away. It's just right for making a handkerchief. By the way, my wife said that she did what she promised you." Jiang Changtian covered his mouth and nose with the handkerchief and retreated.
He said to Baozhu who was standing at the door: "Captain Liu, your job is also hard and dangerous. You should also prepare a handkerchief. Next time you encounter such a dead person, what if it is infected with a serious disease? It's a problem. That woman seems to be infected and crazy."
Baozhu nodded quickly. Mr. Jiang is really a good person.
He watched Mr. Jiang leave.
Looking back, he saw that the female kidnapper was not crying with her husband, but was mumbling something.
He quickly retreated further.
Baozhu heaved a sigh of relief when someone finally came to relieve the yamen.
He immediately took people to see the two kidnappers.
However, the female kidnapper suddenly ran headfirst into the wall, breaking all the bricks on the wall. Her head was covered in blood and she died instantly.
Suddenly, there were two more corpses in the cell.
Jiang Changtian returned to the side room and continued to sort the herbs.
The small window was dimly lit.
There were three newly carved lines on the wooden windowsill.
