Chapter 213

After lunch, Su Bai continued to investigate the case non-stop. Maybe he was really lucky. The third-class case this time was not difficult, and he quickly settled it. However, it took a lot of time on the road, so he didn't He was in a hurry to go back to "Jiugongmen" to deliver it, and planned to wait until tomorrow, and then pick up a third-class case, and he would be promoted to second-class head arrester smoothly.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Su Bai didn't meet Xiaosan. It seems that the other party didn't come back last night, but he didn't worry too much. After all, this is Shangjing, and Xiaosan is the third son of the Lu family. It is basically impossible for something to happen. The biggest possibility is that it was delayed by some case.

He already knew the way to the "Jiugongmen" headquarters, so he left early. On the way, Su Bai thought, he couldn't stay at Xiaosan's house all the time. He himself feels a little bit sorry, after all, it doesn't feel very good to depend on others.

He was thinking about whether to buy a house in Shangjing and set up his family here from now on. After all, he felt that if he wanted to find a way to return to Earth, he might not be able to do so for a while. If he couldn't go back, he would always settle here.

Are you really going to be in Beijing?And are you really sure you want to stay in one place?Before, he thought about wandering the rivers and lakes, experiencing wind and rain, and fighting the world with his sword!

After leaving Nanxuan City, he has been through the rivers and lakes, and he thinks that's the case, and it doesn't mean that wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes!Even if he stays in Shangjing, it doesn't count as quitting the arena, but Su Bai feels that he hasn't reached the time to start a family and start a business. If he is really asked to buy a house and marry a wife, he doesn't seem to have such a plan.

After thinking wildly for a while, Su Bai didn't make a decision. He planned to take a step forward. What he was thinking now was to break through to the first-class realm first, and the closer goal was to be promoted to the second-class headhunter!
When they arrived at the "Jiugongmen" station, Su Bai was already familiar with the road, and the elder Zong was still there. This time, Su Bai was looking for the other party deliberately, but the elder Zong didn't say hello, and seemed to be asleep.

Su Bai went underground, handed in the case, got another third-class merit, and then looked for the next target.

Ordinarily, it would be easier to solve another simple case of finding someone, but it was successfully solved twice in a row, which made Su Bai feel a little more confident, and felt that he should be able to challenge more difficult cases!
So he turned his gaze and looked at other cases, those cases that had been hung up for some time.

The cases here are basically listed in chronological order. The part that Su Bai looked at was one to three months old, which is relatively difficult to deal with. It can even be said that it has the potential to become a deadly case. There are more people looking for items, but very few people looking for people.

Su Bai had just scanned around, but was suddenly attracted by the brief introduction of a case. The brief introduction of this case is very simple: a jug of fine wine worth thousands of dollars was lost!
Su Bai raised his eyebrows, a fine wine worth thousands of gold?If he had seen it when he first traveled through time, he might have believed it!But now he knows the price of wine in this world, not to mention anything else, even the "burning knife" he made is considered a first-class wine here!And even if it is "burning knives", it dare not boast that it is worth a thousand dollars!
After all, 100 taels of silver is equal to one tael of gold, and 100 taels of silver is equal to 1 yuan before crossing!Isn't the value of thousands of gold equal to 1000 million?Is this still wine?I'm afraid the queen mother's fine nectar and jade liquid are not worth so much money, right?Of course, it's hard to say, if it really can prolong life, and even drink the fine nectar of immortality, then it is really a priceless treasure.

However, the wine in this mortal world is absolutely impossible to be worth so much money. Of course, Su Bai also knows that the so-called value of thousands of gold is probably just an adjective, which contains a lot of exaggeration and cannot be taken seriously.

It's just that the other party dared to boast so much, and the altar of wine was probably famous, which made Su Bai interested. After all, he is also a good drinker now, and he is no longer the same as before. It's about really starting to taste and experience, and different wines can also taste different.

Su Bai really wanted to know what kind of wine this wine was, although he thought it would be very difficult to get it back if it was lost, but what if it could be found!In addition, he felt that even if the case could not be solved, it was nothing. It was nothing more than delaying his promotion to the second-class chief arrester for a while, and at worst he would give up and change another case.

Thinking in this way, Su Bai found relevant personnel, accepted the case, and received more detailed information.

It turned out that the person who lost the wine was an old man who lived in the southwest city. He reported the case a few months ago, saying that he had lost a family heirloom of fine wine, which was worth thousands of dollars!At that time, the people in "Jiugongmen" didn't believe it, but the old man justified himself and accepted the case. However, no one accepted the case afterwards, so he kept it open.

After all, in the eyes of normal people, this case has too many false elements, and it is even possible that the old man fabricated it himself. If it weren't for Su Bai, who has a special interest in wine, he would naturally sneer at this case, and this case has been put on hold. Here it is.

After getting the information, Su Bai went to find the old man first according to the above address. Southwest City is a place where martial arts practitioners gather. Could it be that the old man also knows martial arts?Is it a person in the martial arts?Thinking about it this way, Su Bai became more interested.

Su Bai quickly arrived in the southwest city and found the old man's home, but the scene in front of him made him frown. He went to the northeast city twice before, where the rich people live, the house repair plan is very reasonable, The streets are straight, and the houses are neat and beautiful. The current house of the "Huiyou Escort Bureau" that I went to before also looks like a rich family.

But what Su Bai saw now was a low earthen wall, a dilapidated gate, and three thatched huts. Is this the old man's home?Su Bai really didn't know that there were houses like this in Shangjing!
In fact, Su Bai was a little surprised. After all, whether it was before crossing or in the current Wu Dynasty, no matter how developed a city is, there are still slums. Su Bai followed Xiao San to the center of Shangjing when he came, and everyone he saw He is from a rich family, the son of aristocrats, and the few urban areas he went to later were either rich or expensive.

If he went to the relatively chaotic northwest urban area, he would understand that even in Shangjing, where the capital of the Wu Dynasty was located, slums still existed, and even the people there couldn't afford to live in the broken thatched cottage in front of him!

Su Bai shook his head secretly, stretched out his hand and patted the door, he didn't expect the door to open suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, raised his foot and walked in, and found that the yard was empty, he shouted loudly: "Is anyone at home?"

"Who is making the noise? It's so early in the morning that no one can rest!" An old, impatient voice sounded.

Su Bai took a look at the sun hanging high in the sky, it was almost noon now, so early in the morning?
Then he saw the door in the middle of the row of three thatched huts opened, and an old man in unlined clothes came out. Although it was already March, Shangjing belonged to the north, so it was still a little early this morning. It's cold, the old man only has a single suit with a few patches, it seems that life is really difficult.

But Su Bai quickly noticed that the old man was in good spirits, although his thinning hair was all white, his face was wrinkled, and Mung Bean's small eyes were full of sleepiness, as if he had just woken up, the most eye-catching thing , it was the red nose, obviously caused by drinking too much.

The reason why Su Bai felt that the other party was in good spirits was because although the other party was thin, his footsteps were steady, and the voice he spoke just now was also steady, not even the voice that such an old person could make.

Su Bai's heart skipped a beat, did he really meet an expert?After all, someone like this old man should not be able to say martial arts, otherwise his body should not be so good, and his breath should not be so strong.

Su Bai cupped his fists and said: "Mr., you reported the case earlier, saying that you lost a jug of good wine. I'm here to investigate the case in a complicated way. Can you tell me the specific things?"

Hearing Su Bai's words, the old man suddenly became interested, and the sleepiness in his eyes disappeared instantly. He clapped his hands together and said, "'Jiugongmen' has finally sent someone? But how long has it been? This work efficiency is too poor Already!"

Then he raised his eyes to look at Su Bai, as if he had just discovered Su Bai, and his old face instantly sank, and said: "Why are you the only one? And you are only a third-class head catcher? Just rely on you Can you find my good wine too?"

Su Bai's face froze. Originally, he was still very respectful. After all, the other party might be an expert!But why is the other party's words so ugly!What do you mean there is only one person, or just a third-class head catcher?It's good to come alone!If the wine is really lost, no matter whether the wine is good or bad, it is afraid that someone has already drunk it!He just came here with the mentality of giving it a try, but the other party didn't appreciate it?

Moreover, in the previous two cases of looking for people, when those people saw Su Bai, which ones were not respectful, calling each official, and when they came to you, they turned into a kid?This is completely ignoring the "Nine Palace Gate" headhunters!
Of course, Su Bai's official addiction is not great, and he doesn't want to put on airs, and the old man's words are probably not simple.Thinking of this, Su Bai calmed down a bit, and said, "Don't worry, if I can't solve this case, more people will come. Please tell me about the situation first. For example, what is the jar of wine?" Alcohol? When did you find out it was stolen? Is there anyone you suspect?"

Su Bai acted like he was doing business, and all he asked was the main points. As for saying that if he can't solve the case, someone else will take over, that's naturally a lie, after all, this case has been hung up in the "Jiugongmen" a lot It's time, if other people are interested, they would have picked it up long ago, and they won't wait until now.
