Chapter 88 An Unusual Thing Happened

Chapter 88 An Unusual Thing Happened
Drinking weak tea in Commander Luo's office, Li Xing waited patiently for the final result of Commander Luo's interrogation, surrounded by curling sandalwood.

"Young Master, here are the portraits and descriptions provided by the two of them."

Not long after, a younger brother naturally took over the images drawn by the two dentists and called them paintings, which was a bit of an insult to the word painting.

Li Xing took two strange and inexplicable drawings that can be called the flow of visions, and briefly compared some key points, plus the detailed text descriptions they described below the paintings.

"The two people seem to be talking about the same person?" Li Xing looked at Commander Luo.

Commander Luo nodded: "Yes, I also tend to think it's the same person. But I have already arranged for a painter to paint again according to the descriptions of the two, and we will compare them at that time!"

Well organized!Li Xing nodded in satisfaction, and his thoughts turned back to the matter itself.

The same person can sell the yard in as little as a year and then buy it back from another dentist for a higher price.

What kind of strange operation is this?Is it because there is too much money and no place to use it?
Li Xing put down the two pieces of drawing paper and fell into deep thought.

Commander Luo continued: "My lord, next I will go to find out how this yard got into the hands of the first person at that time, and then continue to stare at them and explain the details!"

"Let's assume that these two people are the same person, and they are Zhang San!" Li Xing was not so hasty about the matter of tracing the source. There is a rhythmic but not so crisp sound.

"Then why did Zhang San do this? Selling the yard and buying it back is only a short period of one year. Under what circumstances would a person make such a move?"

Li Xing couldn't find the answer, and Commander Luo fell into deep thought.

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" Li Xing muttered to himself, and Luo Commander couldn't help but nodded.

After being silent for a while, Li Xing couldn't find a clue, so he wanted to change the topic to expand his thinking, so he asked Commander Luo.

"I found out that Zhang and Liu's partnership business seems to involve poppy poppy. What's your opinion on this matter?"

"Poppy?"

Commander Luo just frowned, and didn't show any surprise.

"No wonder I heard that poppy poppy is added to the food sold in many places in the city recently... and the price seems to have dropped a lot!"

This attitude is too bland!Li Xing was puzzled. This is an addictive drug. Has no one noticed how harmful it is?
"Do you think this matter is a trivial matter?" Li Xing asked with a solemn expression.

"My son's words..." Commander Luo immediately became serious when he heard Li Xing's rhetorical question.

"I only know that the origin of poppies is located in the southwestern regions, which are all territories occupied by foreign races."

"In the past, there were only a few large restaurants, and they were able to find channels to buy in small quantities. The sales volume has always been stable, and the price is also high. Basically, it belongs to the top of all kinds of spices!"

"When it was the most expensive, one tael of poppies was even worth a hundred taels of silver!"

Is this the problem?

Li Xing turned his head and looked at Commander Luo expressionlessly: "Isn't this stuff addictive?"

Commander Luo nodded: "Yes, after eating a certain amount, you will indeed have an addictive reaction that is difficult to quit."

"But it's too expensive. Even the largest inn will only add it to a small number of dishes, and use it as a recipe to attract repeat customers! Or in major medicine stores, it will be used in small amounts in certain medicines."

"However, recently, I heard that there are many such things in Huan'an City. Even ordinary rice noodle shops will add a small amount of poppy powder."

"No, you also know that this powder will be adulterated, and it will cause a large area of ​​addiction. Is there no one to care about this kind of thing?"

Commander Luo obviously didn't understand what Li Xing meant, and he didn't fully understand the seriousness of this problem.

Li Xing had no choice but to ask straightforwardly: "If the people in Huan'an City become addicted to poppies on a large scale, how terrible will this matter develop? Have you ever thought about it?"

"This, I don't know!" Commander Luo lowered his head and admitted frankly, "But the jurisdiction over such incidents should belong to the sects."

"I'm small, but I heard that the upper sects have already taken action. I think your concern has already been considered by the leaders of the upper sects!"

Hearing Commander Luo's words, Li Xing immediately thought of Hua Qizong and Luo Mingfeng. He did things neatly and killed them cleanly and happily. It seemed that he had indeed taken action!
It's just that Chang Pingsi, or the city lord, has no jurisdiction over this matter, so even if he knows the danger, he thinks it has nothing to do with him!Li Xing instantly understood what Gao Dusi and Commander Luo were thinking.

Forget it, I really care about this matter, maybe I should ask my master to inquire about it later.

Then I thought about it again: the people in the bounty shop should think the same way. The transportation route and contact person of the poppy poppy are nothing more than an ordinary business in their eyes. It is rich, so the price is 1000 taels of silver, so it makes sense.

"Commander Luo, there is still one thing I don't understand!" Li Xing saw that there was no one around, so he quietly approached Commander Luo and whispered to him.

"How far do we have to solve the matter to receive Changping's bonus?"

"This..." Commander Luo was surprised, but what surprised him was that Li Xing didn't know this standard.

"Actually, as long as you can form a complete logical chain of the case, and persuade both parties to accept your logical chain, and sign and pledge, the case will be over!"

"Logical chain? No need for evidence? No need to arrest suspects?"

Commander Luo shook his head. To be able to sort out the logical chain of a case completely is already a difficult task in the eyes of Chang Ping, not to mention convincing both parties...

Over the years, those who have accomplished this feat are only a few small cases every year, not to mention the arrest of suspects. Being able to lock the suspects and issue arrest documents at sea is already a great achievement!

"This standard is really low!" Li Xing couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Young master?" Hearing Li Xing's sigh, Commander Luo seemed to have some idea about the case, so he hurriedly asked, "Could it be that you already have an idea?"

"I have always had ideas!" Li Xing rolled his eyes, thinking that what Commander Luo said before, no need for evidence, was just a humble remark, but he didn't expect it to be so casual.

"I have at least 50% of the clues in this case! It's just that there are still a few questions, and I can't figure it out!"

"Who is the murderer?"

"Who has the most to lose?"

"Who profited from it?"
