Chapter 429 Brother Tang is in trouble
After arranging the matter with the poisonous insect, the couple planned to let Xiaobai rest in the space for a day before leaving.
Moreover, they also discovered that although Xiaobai and Fantuaner were two different species, the two little guys had unknowingly established a deep friendship in the space.
Although they often seem to fight and quarrel when they are together and neither of them gives in, they will miss each other if they can't see each other for a long time.
For example, now, Mo Jiuye had just taken off the box that he was trying to tie to Xiaobai's legs, and the little thing flapped its wings and ran to find Fantuaner to play.
Xiaobai landed on Fantuan'er's head and pecked the cat fur on its head from time to time.
Fantuaner bleated a few times and then reached out to pat it.
Xiaobai flew up and ran away, and Fantuaner chased after him with his short legs. The scene of the two little guys chasing each other was so harmonious in the eyes of the couple.
It’s still early now, and Mo Jiuye plans to continue looking for Tang Mingrui in the city.
He was in a hurry to find Tang Mingrui, not entirely because of the jewelry business, but because the watermelons at home had ripened and it was the best time to pick them.
A few days ago, Tang Mingrui's melon business was doing very well, generating an income of ten thousand taels of silver for himself and the Mo family.
He should know that these days are the season when Mojia watermelons are ripe. Given Tang Mingrui's personality, he should have brought people over to transport the goods long ago.
Mo Jiuye waited for two days, but there was no movement from Tang Mingrui.
If it were in the past, for such a profitable business, even if Tang Mingrui himself was too busy to get away, he would still send someone to transport the goods.
The result was surprisingly unusual this time. Not only did he not come in person, but his subordinates also did not come.
Out of concern for his friend, Mo Jiuye also felt it necessary to go and see him.
As soon as he entered Yuncheng, he saw Myna leading a group of people, including officials and a middle-aged man who was tied up. The group walked quickly into an alley.
Myna is the chief constable of the yamen, and it is normal for him to lead people to investigate cases. However, the middle-aged man Mo Jiuye who was escorted by the officers looked somewhat familiar.
He thought about it carefully and instantly remembered who this person was.
It was the subordinate of that Erye who was hired by Boss Jin that day.
Normally it was normal for a group of hooligans to commit crimes, but when Mo Jiuye looked at Bage just now, his expression was not as calm as before. He subconsciously thought that this matter might be more or less related to his Mo family, or involved someone related to the Mo family.
Thinking of this, Mo Jiuye strode forward and followed.
At this time, an official was banging hard on the door of a civilian's house.
"Officials are investigating the case. Open the door quickly..."
Mo Jiuye walked over: "My dear, what happened?"
Seeing that it was his brother, Mo Chuhan frowned and whispered, "Brother Tang is in trouble."
When Mo Jiuye heard what the starling said, he immediately had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Did anyone die?"
Myna nodded: "Yes, Boss Jin was killed this morning."
Although the mynah bird didn't speak very clearly, Mo Jiuye could still get the general idea from it.
Boss Jin died, Brother Tang got into trouble, and the police took the gangster to arrest people. It was nothing more than that Tang Mingrui had a feud with Boss Jin because of the cold-eaten rabbit business, and then hired someone to kill him.
I have to say that Mo Jiuye completely analyzed the superficial meaning.
However, he didn't believe that Tang Mingrui would do such a thing.
With that kid's cleverness, it's impossible for him to do something that could easily be used against him. Someone must have framed him.
Seeing that Myna was doing his job, he didn't dare to ask too much.
At this moment, the gate of the courtyard was slammed open and was forcibly pushed open by several officers. Then the officers rushed in with swords in their hands.
Mo Chuhan handed the gangster over to one of his men for custody, then turned around and greeted Mo Jiuye.
"Ninth brother, come with me and take a look."
The two brothers were skilled in martial arts and quickly passed the officers and walked at the front of the yard.
Almost at the same time, the two men flew up and jumped onto the west wall of the courtyard.
Then, a scream was heard: "Ouch..."
A very burly man fell heavily from the wall to the ground.
Mo Chuhan shouted to the officers, "Come here, tie him up for me."
Soon, several officers came forward with ropes and tied the man up skillfully.
Once the person he wants to arrest is caught, Mo Chuhan will definitely bring him back to the yamen.
On the way, Mo Jiuye took the opportunity to ask, "My dear brother, what happened to Brother Tang?"
Although he had already guessed most of it in his mind, he still needed to get confirmation from the starling.
"I just arrived at the government office this morning, and Lord Meng gave me a document from the prefect, asking us to immediately arrest Tang Mingrui from Yuncheng.
I heard it was Tang Mingrui, so I carefully checked the document. It recorded that before midnight last night, Boss Jin was killed in the street by gangsters.
The perpetrators were the subordinates of Erye, a gangster in the state government.
The man was unlucky. He was caught on the spot by patrol officers after committing the crime. After an overnight interrogation, he confessed that he was hired by Tang Mingrui to kill Boss Jin.
Mo Chuhan pointed at the middle-aged thug being escorted by the officials and said, "This is the man. The prefect sent him to our Yuncheng together. What he meant was that Brother Tang is from Yuncheng, so this matter should be handled by Lord Meng.
The prefect is pushing the matter away this time, which is also a good thing for Brother Tang. Lord Meng is honest and upright, and he will definitely find the real murderer and bring him justice. "
"Myna, what you mean is that Brother Tang is in the county government office now?"
"Yes, Lord Meng sent someone to invite Brother Tang to the yamen as soon as he received the official document."
Mo Jiuye knew that even if the mynah brother said that Meng Huaining had sent someone to invite Tang Mingrui to the yamen, he would not be allowed to leave until the case was closed.
Judging from the starling's appearance, he didn't understand the specific situation and couldn't get anything useful out of it.
He followed the mynah bird to the county government office. Meng Huaining was in the study, but he didn't see Tang Mingrui.
Mo Jiuye entered the study and asked, "Brother Meng, what's going on with Tang Mingrui?"
Meng Huaining didn't treat Mo Jiuye as an outsider. He picked up a document on the table and handed it to him.
"Someone accused Tang Mingrui of hiring someone to commit murder. You can find out the details yourself."
Mo Jiuye took the document and started reading it.
The previous content is consistent with what Myna said, that is, Boss Jin was killed on the street last night, and the murderer was caught by a patrol officer who was passing by.
At the same time, the murderer also insisted that it was Tang Mingrui who paid him to do this because Boss Jin was eyeing his cold-eaten rabbit business, and Tang Mingrui held a grudge against him and hired someone to kill him.
Mo Jiuye read the document quickly and put it on the table after reading it.
“Brother Tang can’t possibly do such a thing.”
His tone was very firm.
