Zhao Letong sighed, saying that being a good aunt was not easy. She would spank any of her nephews who dared to be unfilial.
Following Zhao Youping, he first reported to the yamen, dealt with his superiors, and then took three officers to investigate the case of the female corpse in red.
Use public power for personal gain, find someone first, anyway, the female ghost in red is just an unclaimed corpse, she has no relatives, and she can be found at any time.
There is a high possibility that nothing can be found, and it would be good enough if the family can be found.
"Hey, Brother Zhao, why are you still carrying the child?"
"This is my aunt, and this is my brother, Zhao Youxi. Please help me find someone today. I'll treat you later."
"It's a small matter, easy to deal with. Who should I look for?"
Zhao Youxi said, "My husband's daughter was abducted when she was young and has been missing for over ten years. Now there is a clue. I will help him share his worries and find his daughter."
Someone named Zhang Hu asked, "He's been missing for over a decade. Can you find him?"
"With my aunt here, it will definitely work."
Zhao Letong began to perform a ritual. He drew a missing person talisman, wrapped Mr. Wu's daughter's belongings, and began to cast a spell. Soon, a map appeared in his mind with a red dot on it. This was probably the person he was looking for.
Zhao Letong drew the map in his mind. Several officers watched it as if they were watching a shaman performance, except that the one doing the shaman performance was a little girl, fair and cute, who didn't look like someone who would do such a thing at all.
"Brother Zhao, you don't care about it and just let the little girl do this job."
It's not that it's bad, it's just too small, right?
"My aunt's situation is special. She's not specialized in this line of work. Don't tell anyone. Keep it a secret."
"Okay, I definitely can't tell you that. You won't be able to get married when you grow up."
Zhao Letong: “…”
She is only three and a half years old, and he is already thinking about her getting married. This guy really worries too much.
"alright."
Everyone gathered around to look at the map. Zhao Letong took out some candy to eat to replenish his spiritual energy. The consumed spiritual energy now needed to be replenished by eating.
"This place looks familiar."
"This is the outer city. Look, is this the city gate tower? It looks like it's near the city wall. This open space looks like the vegetable market."
"Really? So it's in the West City?"
"Wouldn't it be easier to find out if you just go and take a look?"
If she really found it, this little girl would be amazing.
It took two hours to get there by carriage. The capital city is divided into the inner city, the outer city, the imperial city, and forty-eight markets. It has a permanent population of over one million people. It is the largest capital city and is even known as the capital of gods.
It would take two hours to run from the inner city to the outer city.
The West Market is very lively, with people shoulder to shoulder and shoes about to be squeezed off. This is the largest vegetable market in the capital, and countless firewood, rice, oil, salt, fruits and vegetables are transported here every day to supply the food consumption of the entire city.
But it is also a place where good and bad people mix together and it is the most difficult to manage.
It is because of this that Mr. Wu’s daughter has been missing for more than ten years and cannot be found. Even if they are in the same city, it is very difficult to meet her.
Their identities as police officers did not give them much advantage here. On the contrary, there were some desperate criminals who specifically targeted police officers and would become famous by killing one of them. Being a police officer was also a very dangerous job.
Zhao Letong didn't like the mixed atmosphere here. He suddenly reached out and grabbed a young man's hair. "Don't go. He's stealing money."
"Ah, let go."
"Give me back my wallet."
Zhao Youping touched his sleeve and found his purse was gone. He immediately searched him. Zhao Letong pointed at someone and said, "Don't move."
[This is an accomplice, a money-shifter.]
Zhao Youxi immediately restrained him. After finding the purse, Zhao Youping frowned and said, "You dare to steal the official's money? You are so bold."
"I won't dare to do that anymore. I know I was wrong. Please spare me, sir. I haven't eaten for three days and I was so hungry that I did something stupid. Please forgive me, sir. This is really my first time committing a crime."
"What's your name?"
"Hou San'er."
"I'll remember you. If you do it again, you'll be put in jail."
He has important matters to attend to today, so he won't bother with these thieves. The West Market is under the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Prefecture and is not under his responsibility.
"No, no."
Hou Saner lowered his head and merged into the crowd with a sinister smile on his lips. "You damned officer, you dare to arrest me? Do you believe I will stab you to death?"
Zhao Letong waved his hand and sent out a spiritual mark. Hou Saner had an evil face and a bloody aura. He must have taken a life. He couldn't let him go like this.
Now let’s find the gentleman’s daughter first, and then deal with him later.
A small episode, Zhang Hu and others admired: "The little girl has some skills, she actually caught the thief, and we didn't even notice it."
"I've already told you that my aunt is extraordinary. If you please my aunt, you'll definitely get some benefits from her."
"You don't have to tell me, we also treat the little girl as our sister."
"Get lost, you're taking advantage of me, you should call me aunt, not sister."
Zhang Hu and others laughed out loud. They didn’t think so. Who made Brother Zhao have such a young aunt?
Once you get out of the main street, there are not so many people. The alleys are so complicated that anyone who is not a permanent resident will get lost.
After searching through alleys, Zhao Letong finally saw a house. "It's over there."
"This house is a quiet place in a bustling city. It's a good place. It doesn't look like they are from a poor family. Now it's difficult to deal with it."
"Who would buy a child from a poor family? They're probably going to be servants. It's good enough that they haven't been sold to a brothel."
"What are you talking about? The child is listening."
Zhao Letong had a blank expression on her face, pretending that she knew nothing. After so many years of practice, what had she not seen?
There are even men's salons that specialize in serving female cultivators. She has been to all of them, and it is common for her to find a few male cultivators she likes to have some fun with.
Monks don't care about worldly etiquette, strength is everything. Of course, if they become a Taoist couple, they must be loyal. Taoist couples are recognized by the way of heaven, and anyone who dares to betray will be punished by heaven.
To a certain extent, Taoist partners are more loyal to each other, so it is a very cautious matter for monks to find a Taoist partner.
"Go knock on the door, be polite first and then use force."
"I'll do it."
Zhao Youxi knocked on the door. A young doorman opened it. "Who are you looking for?"
"Looking for my cousin, who works as a maid in this house. Thank you for your help. This is a small gift. Take it with you to have tea."
"Cousin? What's your name?"
The concierge took the money and said, "You're looking for someone. I'm willing to help."
This is a bit difficult. Who knows what name Miss Wu will choose now?
"Well, to be honest, this matter is a bit complicated. My cousin and I were engaged when we were young, but then something happened at home and she became separated from her family. After so many years, I don't know if she changed her name.
But I have a token, I can use it to ask my cousin to identify it."
The doorman looked at him suspiciously. Why did he look like a liar?
"I'm definitely not lying to you. My cousin is eighteen years old this year. She was born in April. I can't tell you her horoscope. She has a long face and small eyes."
These characteristics were described by Zhao Letong. Based on Mr. Wu's appearance, she roughly guessed what Miss Wu looked like.
