I seem to have dragged on for a century

To their surprise, the residence of the crazy woman that Zhang Qingming mentioned was near Zhangji, behind the noodle shop where they had eaten the not-so-delicious food that morning.
Jin Suting subconsciously felt that the crazy woman might have something to do with the noodle shop owner.
When they arrived at the noodle shop, the owner was rolling noodles and there was no customer in the shop.
I suggested going to the backyard to find the crazy woman, but the boss refused.
"We are here to investigate the case. We must find her."
Jin Suting patiently explained to the noodle shop owner, but he had a paralyzed expression and was reluctant to talk.
Just make way and continue rolling the noodles.
His strange behavior made Jin Suting even more certain that he had a relationship with the crazy woman.
The backyard is connected to the noodle shop. There is no door at the back door, only a big door of the noodle shop.
There was a big tree in the backyard, and under the tree was a well. They had seen it before, but it was dry. Even during the day it was pitch black underneath. The boss didn't come with them, so they had to find someone themselves.
It didn't look like anyone had ever lived here. There were two rooms, one was a woodshed, and the other had only a bed and cobwebs on the door.
Helan Ruizhe was very curious about where the noodle shop owner usually lived, so he pushed open the door and looked, and there was indeed no sign of anyone living there.
The bedding was covered in dust and there were bugs crawling in the corners.
Jin Suting walked in, looked around and made sure there was nothing special before walking out.
"That's strange, where does he usually live?"
Helan Ruizhe closed the door of the room, walked under the tree, looked up a few times, then lowered his head and looked at the dry well carefully again.
He reached out and touched the edge of the dry well, then turned back and said to Jin Suting, "Let's go to the woodshed first."
In the quarter of an hour since they entered the backyard from the main entrance of the noodle shop, they did not see the crazy woman that Zhang Qingming mentioned.
Apart from the noodle shop owner, no one was seen alive.
A woodshed, it is indeed a woodshed.
All that was stored there was firewood, which was covered in dust and had a musty smell as if it had been there for a long time.
Jin Suting covered her nose and said, "That's strange. Doesn't the noodle shop owner need to burn firewood?"
Helan Ruizhe took her out of the woodshed, whispered a few words in her ear, and then returned to the noodle shop.
I politely told my boss that I had investigated the case but didn't find the person I was looking for.
When he took Jin Suting away, she was so excited and confused, "Why didn't you expose him right then and there?"
Helan Ruizhe said, "Lure the snake out of its hole."
They returned to the government office and asked Zhang Qingming for a few capable constables, and had them lie in ambush around the noodle shop without making any noise.
The two of them observed every move of the noodle shop in Zhangjili. The noodle shop did not make any business until the evening.
The stove was not even turned on. Now Jin Suting understood why the firewood was covered with dust.
When there were fewer people on the street, the police took action.
Surrounding the noodle shop, the boss was powerless to escape even if he wanted to.
But they didn't expect that the boss was so skilled that he managed to break free from several constables and escape from the noodle shop. Jin Suting subconsciously rushed out and caught the boss.
Because it is a sneak attack, the success rate is very high.
She pinned the man to the ground. Helan Ruizhe and several constables rushed over and brought the noodle shop owner to justice.
"When did you learn Kung Fu?"
Helan Ruizhe asked this question when he helped Jin Suting up.
She panicked and attacked subconsciously. Helan Ruizhe didn't know that she was skilled in martial arts.
