Chapter 62 Crisis

Qin Chi went to the kitchen to get dishes and chopsticks.

Song Jin sat in the hall, watching him busy in amazement.

Qin Chi felt uncomfortable with her gaze. He took out a bowl of soup from the lunch box and placed it in front of Song Jin. "My lady, why are you looking at me like this?"

"No, I just wanted to see something strange."

Song Jin's brows relaxed and he smiled gently.

When she looked at Qin Chi, there seemed to be a light in her eyes, which was incredibly gentle.

Qin Chi's heart was pounding.

It's not what he thought, but it's beyond his control.

Why is my wife looking at him like this? Could it be...

This world is harsh on women.

Husbands rarely do housework for their wives, as if it is shameful for men to do housework.

Qin Chi just went to get the dishes and chopsticks.

But it is also extremely rare, especially since he is a scholar.

That's why Song Jin would say it's strange.

Qin Chi thought calmly and understood the meaning of Song Jin's words. He simply pretended not to hear her teasing and brought up another topic: "Madam, I heard that the government has closed the case of Ji Fang."

"Wang Mazi was caught?"

Wang Mazi is the man who sold medicine to Xing Lun and Zhou Wei.

Huang Bingliang is dead.

It is difficult to link it to the Zeng family or Huairen Pharmacy again.

Qin Chi knew about this case.

So when Qin Chi mentioned it, Song Jin had no doubts.

"How did you catch him? Didn't you say he was hiding?"

"Ha, I heard he hid in the mountains. He couldn't stand the mosquito bites and he hadn't received any news for a long time. He was about to go down the mountain to inquire about it, but he was caught by the people arranged by the Dianshi."

Qin Chi said something else.

After interrogation, Wang Mazi gave out Huang Bingliang and Huairen Pharmacy.

Huang Bingliang is dead and there is no evidence to prove his guilt.

The clerks and the manager of the pharmacy were arrested and taken to jail for interrogation. It was discovered that Manager Chai had teamed up with Huang Bingliang to harm Jifang's people.

The Zeng family only sent a housekeeper to deal with it.

Huairen Pharmacy is closed.

Xing Lun and Zhou Wei each received 100 taels of silver in compensation.

The case was closed.

Song Jin pondered in his heart, "I didn't hear about this matter today. When was the case closed?"

"Oh, about seven or eight days."

Qin Chi said it casually.

Song Jin thought that Aunt Ling and the others didn't tell her, probably because they forgot about it for a moment, so it wasn't a big deal.

Qin Chi reminded him again: "The Zeng family is not easy to deal with. After this incident, they will definitely bear a grudge against Shangjifang."

"I've been holding a grudge for a long time..."

You can tell from the fact that Mr. Zeng is trying to kill someone.

Song Jin looked too calm, so Qin Chi had no choice but to say, "The Zeng family recently got involved in a murder case."

"Tell me about it?"

Song Jin pretended to be unaware.

Like an outsider.

If Qin Chi didn't know that she was the one who committed the murder, he wouldn't have believed that she did it. No one can match her stable mentality.

"A murder occurred in the city a few days ago..."

Qin Chi told Song Jin everything one by one, no matter how big or small.

"The case has been widely reported in the capital, and has even spread to Yi County. I heard about it from a classmate today."

Qin Chi was not very careful in covering it up.

This time difference is very problematic.

But Song Jin's focus is not here.

Jin Ling and others are from the Song family. The Zeng family vows not to tolerate Ji Fang's existence. There will definitely be other means later...

Qin Chi took in Song Jin's serious look.

There are some things that Qin Chi cannot tell Song Jin with his current identity.

While they were returning to Qinjiagou, several waves of people had come to investigate Jifang.

Song Jin wore a veil when going out every day, which still attracted people's attention. Someone has already approached Old Li to inquire about it.

Qin Chi used thundering means to clear out the spies from all sides, thus preventing Song Jin's identity from being revealed.

After Song Jin washed up.

People go back to their rooms to rest.

She felt sleepy easily during this period and fell asleep after a while.

"Bang!"

Qin Chi, who was originally planning to turn off the lights, suddenly stood up and strode to the carved window.

Push open a gap.

I suddenly saw people fighting outside.

A masked man in black.

The other figure looked like Lao Huo.

The man was caught by Lao Huo after only a few moves.

Qin Chi closed the windows and doors, looked at Song Jin who was sleeping on the bed in the light, and gently lowered the bed curtains on both sides.

He walked out of the room, looking intimidating without being angry.

Went to the next door through the secret door.

When I entered, I heard suppressed screams. Someone was gag-boxing and torturing me.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Old Huo’s interrogation method was brutal.

I didn't treat the other person as a human being.

"Well, move, move..."

The man couldn't stand the repeated torture.

Old Huo's hands were stained with blood, but he was still not satisfied and said, "Why don't you hold on a little longer? I still have many ways to force a confession that I haven't tried yet."

Shopkeeper Tao standing next to him felt his scalp tingling.

This guy is a pervert.

Old Li was not surprised.

He had long seen through Old Huo.

It fits his ferocious appearance very well, he is not a good person. The two people who hurt him before were tortured by him in the dark cell until they wanted to die, but they are still not dead yet.

Old Huo pulled out a white handkerchief next to him and wiped the blood from his hands. "This man is weak-willed, and the power behind him is average. Brother Tao, you can ask him now."

"Okay, leave it to me next."

Shopkeeper Tao went up to inquire.

The man was so frightened that he answered every question.

It didn't take a moment to ask.

This man's name is Liu Sixi. He has been working for Uncle Zeng for a long time. This time he was sent to investigate the people behind Jifang.

Among the group of people who had been inquired about before, there were also people sent by Uncle Zeng. Liu Sixi had no idea about this and just thought that Uncle Zeng arranged for him to come to Yi County alone.

This shows that Uncle Zeng is cautious in his work.

I am usually worried that the people below me will deceive me.

Liu Sixi was able to get here by following Trace because Uncle Zeng found out from somewhere that the owner of Jifang Pharmacy was a woman. He had targeted Song Jin when he went to the pharmacy today, but he didn't see Song Jin's true face, so he wanted to come and check it out at night.

Shopkeeper Tao said: "This guy is smart, he is the fish that slipped through our net earlier..."

"Send him to his companions."

Qin Chi's face was gloomy and he gave the order directly.

Shopkeeper Tao felt a chill down his spine.

The body of the previous spy from the Zeng family had long since sunk to the bottom of the river.

Then Liu Sixi was dragged away like a dead dog. When he got outside, he heard a snap and his larynx was broken.

The next step is to destroy the body.

Qin Chi looked at Shopkeeper Tao and said, "Go see the lady tomorrow and tell her everything. At least let her know her situation clearly."

"Yes, sir."

Shopkeeper Tao responded respectfully.

After Qin Chi left, Shopkeeper Tao and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"The Master is angry!"

Old Li was still frightened.

Shopkeeper Tao was annoyed, "You wouldn't be angry?"

"That's right! If anyone dares to target my wife, I will smash their skulls!"

Old Huo laughed from his wide mouth.

Then he sat down at the coffee table, poured a big bowl of cold tea and drank it.

Shopkeeper Tao glanced at him sideways and sneered, "What a pity, you don't have a wife."

"Go away! I have the beauty of Chunguiyuan, and that's enough for me."

“They are selling it.”

"What's the big deal? There are a bunch of girls for me to choose from. They serve me comfortably. I can do whatever I want to you. If you break them, I can always find another one."

The more Old Huo spoke, the more unruly he became.

What's the point of marrying one? Just like his father before, he was controlled by an old woman every day, and there were noisy noises all day long.

Shopkeeper Tao just wants to say that everyone has their own aspirations.

It's not like he is a man who keeps himself clean and just wants to have a family.
