Yin Fu Daojun

Chapter 13
After the reward was in place, the man on the stage smiled and asked the vase girl to sing a song, which immediately won the applause of the audience.

Xie Duan watched for a while, and saw that there were more and more people around, and the monkey was beating the gong, walking towards the crowd again, and even leaning back, without saying a word, he simply pulled away and left.

Those who have money hold a money market, and those who have no money hold a personal market. This is what they say. If they have no money, they have the right to increase their popularity.

At this time, Xie Duan was walking, recalling the scene just now.

Looking at the girl's face, it is estimated that she is twelve or thirteen years old. In ancient times, a girl of this age had already matured in stature, and it was absolutely impossible for her to enter such a small bottle. There must be a mystery behind it.

But if it wasn't the so-called ancient tricks, what would it be?

He suddenly thought of the modern report about the vase girl. There was an exhibition of the vase girl in a certain place before. When the reporter interviewed, the vase girl said that because of her weak body, she was put into the vase at a very young age. Once she left the vase, Immediately die.

However, this statement was quickly denied, and it was completely revealed to the public. It was nothing more than a scam to win the attention of others.

Although it is false, this kind of statement gave Xie Duan a reminder to imagine boldly, could the vase girl in Yixiyuan be like this?
It was stuffed into a vase when it was a baby, and it was nourished with medicine like a flower, but if this is the case, it is too unbelievable. What is the origin behind the people who perform strange tricks to earn money in this way?
However, no matter whether the facts are as he expected or not, now he has no intention to investigate deeply. In this world, no matter how weird things happen, it is not surprising.

What's more, there are a lot of things in front of me, which have nothing to do with me. It's good to clean the snow by myself, and there's no need to worry about it.

After wandering in the street for a while, Xie Duan turned back to the yamen.

"Master Duan is back, the master is waiting for you!"

Stepping into the inner house, the porter saw him with a smile on his face.

"Brother-in-law looking for me?"

"Well! The master said that as soon as you come back, he will let you see him."

Xie Duan thought for a while and could guess what it was.

"I'm going right now!"

After asking where his brother-in-law was, he walked towards the mansion.

In the study, Li Qing put on a coat and sat at the desk writing something. Judging from the state of his face, his injuries were no longer serious.

"Brother-in-law, are you looking for me?"

Xie Duan stepped forward to salute, and said at the same time.

"Come back, sit down!"

Li Qing looked up at him and stopped writing.

"The county captain Jiang told me about the Hulu Village case. The real culprit behind the abduction of the child and the serious injury to me is a monster, and he has already been executed! I heard that the whole plan came from you?"

With an incredulous look on his face, he asked.

"It's all thanks to everyone, and I didn't do much."

Xie Duan was neither humble nor overbearing, expressing his attitude.

As early as when he entered the mansion, he heard from the porter that he was looking for him. At that time, he had guessed in his heart that it must be because of this incident.

After all, apart from that, there was nothing worthy of his summons.

But Li Qing heard Xie Duan's answer and saw that he was so low-key, so he couldn't help nodding his head slightly, looked at him, and his expression was quite satisfied.

"Very good! It seems that I underestimated you before!"

Xie Duan smiled politely, not surprised by this.

"Thank you brother-in-law for your compliment! It's just that although the case in Calabash Village has been solved, it doesn't mean that the case of the missing child will be closed."

"I checked the files carefully and found that there are many doubts in this case! For example, the three missing children in the county town were almost all during the day, while Hulu Village was the opposite, it was all night."

"As far as I know, the black hole is afraid of crowds and doesn't like the daytime, so it will never appear in the daytime. There are several cases in the county town. The culprit is probably someone else. Hulu Village is just a coincidence."

Xie Duan didn't feel complacent because of his praise, but struck while the iron was hot, revealing everything he thought was abnormal.

He can think of what he can think of, and the reason why he said it again is just to hear his opinion. After all, there are only six or seven days left before the time limit for solving the case. If the case is not closed as soon as possible, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Haha...cough cough cough! Good, good! I never thought that you have such a high talent for investigating cases. I am really impressed."

After listening to his narration, Li Qing couldn't help laughing out loud, but he forgot that he was still injured, this smile made him grin his teeth in pain.

"I know what you said. It's just that there are no clues. The perpetrator is too cunning! Apart from the county town, Zhaojiaping next door and Jiajia Town in the south have all had similar disappearances of children. The spies sent out, Still no news."

"These several cases, according to my judgment, should be related. Originally, the clues in Calabash Village were thought to be a breakthrough, but it turned out to be the work of monsters. Now even the only hope is cut off."

Li Qing shook his head helplessly, expressing that he had no choice.

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, no matter how clever the crime is, it will always leave clues! I have already thought of a countermeasure, but the method is a bit risky. Whether to adopt it or not depends entirely on my brother-in-law."

As soon as Xie Duan said this, Li Qing's interest was instantly aroused.

"Oh? What good plan do you have, tell me quickly!"

Xie Duan looked resolute, and slowly uttered four words from his mouth.

"Lead the snake out of its hole!"

……

As the saying goes: If you can't bear children, you can't hold wolves!
In order to solve the case as soon as possible, Xie Duan did his best. The criminal master added 36 tricks, which were completely learned by him.

Before the official implementation of the plan, Xie Duan went to the homes of the victims who lost their children one by one, asked about the incident, and investigated the scene of the crime.

Undoubtedly, the information obtained was the same as that in the file, and the criminal behind the scenes was really good at disguising, and no clues could be found at all.

The child followed beside him, and disappeared as soon as he turned his head. It was like disappearing from the world, and no one noticed the key point.

No matter whether it is a busy city with many people or an alley with few people, as long as you are targeted by criminals, you will basically be unable to get rid of the fact that you have been abducted.

Since there are no clues, then take the initiative to create clues.

……

Qingshi Street is located at the north gate of the county seat, with less traffic. Among the three missing children in the city, one of them happened here.

At this time, in the center of the street, a four or five-year-old boy was walking along the road, holding a candied haws in his hand, followed by a woman.

From time to time there were thick men coming and going around, some carrying burdens, some pushing small carts, and some carrying shelves, hiding weapons, crossing the streets and alleys, including the upstairs of the shops on both sides.

Xie Duan was dressed as a scholar, walking around on the street.

"It's already the third day, and there's not even the slightest movement. Could it be that the plot was seen through by the criminal behind the scenes? It shouldn't be!"

Xie Duan stared at the child in front of him closely, thinking to himself.

There are less than four days left before the deadline for closing the case. If the "snake" still cannot be lured out, then all their efforts will be in vain.

For three full days, the busiest Zhengyuan Street was guarded for one day, Hongyun Street with the most shops and markets was guarded for one day, and now Qingshi Street, the most deserted, was guarded for another day. Logically speaking, the criminal should have noticed it too!

Because of this incident, the city was in a state of panic, so there were hardly any children on the street. In order to look more natural, he deliberately made the "bait" disguise and change roles every day. Yesterday was father and son, today it is mother and son. wander the streets.

"Did the criminal run away? Or was there something wrong with the acting?"

Xie Duan couldn't help sighing, this case is really fucking tiring.

He continued to follow up, and before he knew it, he came to a turning point.

"Hey... Hey..."

Just at this time, a carriage suddenly came around the corner.

When they arrived in front of the child, mother and child, they were facing an alley with high walls and buildings on both sides, which blocked a lot of sight.

The compartment of the carriage was square, and Xie Duan glanced over from this side, his sight was completely blocked by the compartment, including the policemen he had placed around him, they didn't react at all for a moment.

When the carriage passed by, at the corner, only the woman was left walking alone, but there was no sign of the child!
