Chapter 968 I Didn’t Come to the Inn Alone
Cruel, they are really cruel.
The speed of destroying evidence is also extremely fast.
Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan looked at each other. County Magistrate Mi lowered his head and slightly curled his lips where they couldn't see.
"knew."
Song Jiuyuan was not angry, but held Jiang Wan's hand and spoke in a gentle tone.
"My lady, why don't you go back to the inn and rest? I'm afraid you'll be scared."
"If my husband is not afraid, then I am not afraid either."
Jiang Wan cooperated closely and followed Song Jiuyuan's footsteps, and they soon found the cell where the waiter was held.
He was not locked up with the people in the inn opposite. He sat alone in the corner, looking a little lonely.
Compared to him, the owner, waiter and even the helper of the inn opposite were very calm and were sitting together chatting.
Obviously, he was very confident that nothing would happen to him and he just came here to go through the process.
Glancing at Jiang Wan, Song Jiuyuan and the others coming over, they stopped talking and looked at them curiously.
It was that look of the person sizing up his prey, which was particularly unpleasant.
But Jiang Wan knew that this was the true face of this group of people.
"The shopkeeper is dead, the next one is you...or you all."
Song Jiuyuan stood in front of the waiter and said, "You know better than anyone how he died, right?
How can someone who knows so many secrets live a good life? "
"Don't try to irritate me."
The waiter rubbed it vigorously with his fingertips, and it was obvious that he was a little irritable because he had not worked the night before.
His tone was cold, "We didn't do anything, why did you frame us?"
"Framed?"
Jiang Wan was so angry that she laughed, "Those corpses in the kitchen cellar are not fake.
Do you really think that if your boss destroyed the things, we would have no evidence?"
Jiang Wan raised her eyes and glanced at Magistrate Mi, who was watching his heart and eyes, and said, "Stop joking, okay?
You really think that our presence here is accidental, then you are too naive. "
She looked like someone who was sent to do something, which successfully changed the expressions of Xiao Wai and the others.
There were so many people here that Song Jiuyuan and the others didn't expect to be able to ask anything. He glanced at the waiter meaningfully.
"Take good care of yourself, and I hope we can see each other again."
After saying this, he took Jiang Wan out of the cell, and County Magistrate Mi followed them in fear.
For a moment, he was a little unsure of Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan's intentions.
Could it be that they were really sent by the Dali Temple in Kyoto?
Magistrate Mi was confused and uneasy. "Sir, what are you going to do next?"
"Go to the inn and wash up and have a good rest."
Song Jiuyuan and Jiang Wan looked at each other, and they both understood each other's meaning, with the same indifferent expression.
This made County Magistrate Mi a little anxious. He was so anxious just now that he wanted to see someone.
Why are you so calm now?
"My husband, I thought these people were quite smart, but I didn't expect them to be so stupid."
Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows and noticed that County Magistrate Mi pricked up his ears, so she didn't continue.
"Okay, my lady, let's go back to the inn and rest."
Song Jiuyuan took Jiang Wan away from the government office, which gave County Magistrate Mi a headache.
He watched the two men get on the carriage, then turned and went to the cell. In the cell, Yuan Bai had already smashed the inkstone he had just used.
"A bunch of rubbish."
"Mr. Yuan."
Magistrate Mi frowned slightly, very dissatisfied with Yuan Bai's use of the government office's staff.
However, Yuan Bai didn't notice it. He said coldly, "Where are they?"
"He said he was going to the inn to rest."
Magistrate Mi spoke the truth, which made Yuan Bai fall into deep thought, “They can’t be so calm.
Unless they have something to use against us, Magistrate Mi, my father gives you so much silver every year.
Are you here for a living? You can’t even do such a small thing? ! ! "
Magistrate Mi was an official after all, so naturally he felt unconvinced when being scolded and oppressed by Yuan Bai.
But he didn't show it on his face, "Mr. Yuan, you should have a good rest first.
I'll go check the situation first, and we'll share what we have."
"Mi County Magistrate."
Yuan Bai suddenly stopped Magistrate Mi who was about to leave and said, "Sometimes you can't be too soft-hearted.
If it really doesn’t work…” He made a gesture of wiping his neck, “Just deal with it, don’t cause trouble for my father.”
"Mr. Yuan, please take a rest first."
This time, County Magistrate Mi did not listen to Yuan Bai. To put it bluntly, he listened to Jiang Wan.
If they were really sent by the Dali Temple, even if he killed them, the higher-ups would still send people.
Then he can only...
A hint of cruelty flashed across Magistrate Mi's eyes, and he would naturally protect himself if necessary.
He's just the richest man.
So what if he has connections with the higher-ups? He can just replace someone else to be the richest man!
…
Jiang Wan didn't know that these people had already started fighting among themselves. In the carriage, Jiang Wan and Song Jiuyuan were each lost in thought.
"They even dared to destroy evidence. This group of people is really brazen."
"Just a bunch of mad dogs."
Song Jiuyuan sneered, "Fortunately, we were well prepared. In addition to the physical evidence, we also have Li Ruan."
At that time, Li Ruan's testimony will be crucial.
It’s a pity that he can’t use his status to punish these people.
But as long as the disaster is eliminated, what does it matter who solves it?
"They bite people like crazy without caring about anything. You should be more careful."
Jiang Wan was still a little worried, but she didn't say it.
After returning to the inn, Li Ruan seemed to have recovered a lot, and Song Jiuyuan sent someone else to protect Li Ruan alone.
Jiang Wan brought Muxiang and Ganze as antidote.
Those who have eaten these meals must have suffered damage to their health.
Song Si has also sent people to buy the medicinal herbs that Jiang Wan needs, and he is still outside protecting her.
Gan Ze is smart. Jiang Wan only taught him once and he was able to imitate her.
Muxiang is not as good, but with Ganze around, Jiang Wan is not worried.
Only after making sure that they had learned it did Jiang Wan allow the two of them to work together.
But after leaving the room, she didn't expect Li Ruan wanted to see her.
Arriving at the room where Li Ruan was resting temporarily, Jiang Wan's brows softened unconsciously.
"Miss Ruan Ruan, did you remember anything?"
"Sister Jiang."
Li Ruan smiled and said, "I asked Mu Xiang, and she said your last name is Jiang. Do you mind if I call you that?"
"No problem."
Jiang Wan smiled gently, "Do whatever makes you feel comfortable. The name is just a nickname."
"Sister Jiang is such a nice person. No wonder Muxiang keeps talking about you."
Li Ruan lowered her eyelids and suddenly said, "Actually, I didn't come to the inn alone."
"What?!!"
Jiang Wan was very surprised, but after a while she felt it was normal. Li Ruan's family must be worried about her going out alone as a girl.
Perhaps guessing Jiang Wan's thoughts, Li Ruan shed tears crazily, "She is not my maid."
"Who is with you then?"
Jiang Wan felt like there was a fog in front of her, and Li Ruan did not mention the other party when she woke up.
Why are you saying it now?
"It's me..."
Li Ruan said in a very low voice, "I'm not here for fun, my parents asked me to marry someone I don't like.
So Yuanlang and I eloped..."
Although it was a little difficult to say, Li Ruan was more worried about Yuan Lang's safety. She said:
"I didn't dare to tell you at first because my memory was vague at that time and I didn't remember it."
