On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1669: Paralyzed by 3 rounds of shock

The headlights came on and almost blinded the two thieves.

They immediately covered their eyes, feeling as if their souls were about to be illuminated out of their bodies.

"what?"

The abbot honked the horn again, and two loud "beeps" echoed through the night sky.

The two were startled and took a few steps back, covering their eyes.

Just as I was about to look through my fingers to see what kind of monster it was, I heard a woman's voice.

"Please pay attention, back up. Please pay attention, back up."

Yan Ruyu: "..."

The two thieves heard it clearly, but they didn't understand. The key point was, who was this woman that caught their attention?

The woman who had just stood in front of them did not speak in this tone.

How should I describe this voice? It sounds gentle, but also stiff and lacks any human touch.

What kind of person would be like this, repeating the same thing over and over again without any change in emotion?

Countless terrible thoughts flashed through the two people's minds, and they frightened themselves to death.

The abbot made a gesture to Yan Ruyu, and Yan Ruyu took out a rope and tied up the two men.

The headlights were turned off and the abbot took out the flashlight and put it away, making the light much softer.

He got off the tricycle and kicked the two men on the ground: "How is it? Without bloodshed, a tricycle and a lamp can catch these two thieves."

Yan Ruyu gave a thumbs up: "Great."

"Then I'll leave it to you to judge."

The abbot was in high spirits and was willing to take on any job, so he agreed readily.

"Where are you two from? Who asked you to come? Tell me!"

While he was interrogating her, Yan Ruyu went to the side to look at the two fallen objects.

A steel knife, very ordinary, nothing special.

The other big sword looked quite old. The handle was polished to a smooth surface and the handle on it was made of soft silk cloth, dark red in color. It was possible that the color was bright at first, but became dirty and dark over time.

They stole the materials using cloth bags as big as a five-kilogram rice bag that could be carried away with one hand. They probably just wanted to take some samples back to look at.

The cloth bag was quite old, and there was a vague mark printed on it, but it was mostly torn off and it was impossible to tell what it was.

"We are both from Rongchang Escort Agency," said the man with a mustache, "and one of the agency's former customers asked us to come."

"What customer? Explain clearly." the abbot shouted.

"It was the escort agency that escorted the goods before," said the man with a mustache, "and it was just transported last month."

"What are you talking about? Just say it out loud, don't waste your time."

The abbot has never had such a happy life in his life, no, in these two lives.

"It's transporting medicinal herbs," the mustache replied, "three carts of medicinal herbs."

Yan Ruyu paused and turned to look over. The abbot also had a serious expression.

"What medicinal materials?"

"We don't understand this," Dadao took over, "We are not doctors, we don't understand, we just know it is a medicinal herb."

"Where to transport it?" the abbot asked again.

"We transported them to Shencheng. There is a herbal medicine store there. I heard that they do business with people outside the Great Wall. The business is very big. The customers asked us to send the herbs there."

The man with the mustache also said, "Yes, that's right. On the day we went there, they were just about to load a truck to go outside the Great Wall. They didn't have enough manpower, so they asked us to go with them for a while."

Da Dao nodded: "Because this is a private job, our escort agency has rules and cannot accept private jobs, so we didn't tell anyone."

Yan Ruyu asked, "Who is the customer?"

Da Dao looked at her, and the abbot said loudly, "Answer."

"He is a young man from a wealthy family," the man with the mustache had a twinkling look in his eyes. "I heard his last name is Qiu, but I don't know his full name..."

"I don't know?" Yan Ruyu smiled.

Upon seeing this, the abbot took the flashlight and pointed the beam at the moustache.

The man with the moustache was so frightened by the strong light that he covered his eyes again.

"Say or not?"

"Tell me, tell me, he is the son of the Qiu family, his family is rich, and he is doing well in border trade. We..."

The abbot sneered: "Have you ever thought about attacking him?"

Otherwise these two people wouldn't be so hesitant.

"We didn't do it, we just thought about it," Ba Hu said quickly, "and then we found out that he was a big spender, and it would be easy to get money from him if we just coaxed him, so why would we kill him?"

Yan Ruyu thought to herself that these two people were not that stupid and were not carried away by the situation.

"Why did he ask you to steal these things?"

"He said he wanted to build the road himself and wanted to see what was used."

Yan Ruyu came to them and said, "That's not right. What you said before was, Sir, the young master of the Qiu family has no official position or job, so what kind of lord is he?"

The man with a mustache swallowed his saliva and said, "He is not an official, but he has always wanted to pursue a career in politics and wanted to donate money to become an official. I heard that he tried to get it and it seemed possible, but it fell through later."

"From that time on, when he was in private or drunk, he would ask people to call him 'sir', and we... just followed suit to make him happy, unconsciously..."

The abbot rolled his eyes, he really is good at flattering.

After asking the two men to tell everything they knew, Yan Ruyu drugged them and threw them both on the tricycle.

The abbot has made such complete preparations tonight, with clothes and shoes already changed, you can't come here in vain.

Yan Ruyu waited on the side, her consciousness entering the space, thinking about what to do next, while the abbot began to work with a rumbling sound.

In the space, Yan Ruyu began to draw a mind map and opened a separate book for Shen Cheng's matter.

Now the Qiu family has appeared and transported three truckloads of medicinal materials to Shencheng and even to outside the Great Wall. The Qiu family is definitely involved in this matter.

Even if he was not the mastermind and did not know the specific circumstances, he should have heard about it, otherwise he would not have been able to seize the business opportunity so accurately.

It’s the Qiu family again.

Yan Ruyu still remembers the third master of the Qiu family who was killed in Shencheng, but she still has no clue about it.

A while ago, when the West City project started, Mr. Qiu wanted to buy a shop, but she refused.

Unexpectedly, this time the young master of the Qiu family wanted to steal materials for road construction again.

It really hit the muzzle of a gun.

What role does the Qiu family play in this? Do they have any dealings with Mr. Mo?

Yan Ruyu drew a question mark.

……

Huo Changhe did not return to the Dutong Mansion, but stayed in the government office with Xiao Chiye, reading the collected records written by the yamen runners.

What were they doing and who were they with when the fire started.

There were eleven yamen runners, eight constables, and nineteen records.

"I remember that there were originally ten detectives."

"Indeed," Xiao Chiye explained, "One of the detectives died while chasing the murderer, so there is one less person."

"There is another one. He has asked for leave today and is not on duty."

Huo Changhe nodded, asked no more questions, and looked through their records.

Originally, there were only five or six people on duty at night, but because of the special circumstances in the past two days, Xiao Chiye ordered that everyone should stay in the government office at night in case they were deployed at any time.

So, except for those who have taken leave, everyone is here.

When we have nothing to do in the evening, we get together and play cards, but we don’t dare to drink alcohol for fear that something really happens and delays us.

Therefore, there will be no problem if you look through the records.
