Three Kingdoms: Everything Can Be Gamified

Chapter 8 The Evidence Is Conclusive (for further reading)

Back at Sanchakou, continue walking along the alley, and as clues were found out one by one, Zhang He was lucky not to make a wrong choice.

Mainly at the fork in the road, he carefully checked the other two wrong options, only to realize that he had not observed carefully:

The black cloth is silk, which thief would go out in black silk?
On the other side of the main road is the yamen, and the thieves come in and out from time to time. The thieves have ghosts in their hearts, so they definitely won't go here.

The answer corresponding to the clue was there from the very beginning, it was just that I didn't dig it out seriously.

After all, how complicated can a low-difficulty game be?
As long as you follow the rules of the game, a perfect customs clearance is a matter of course...

"Looking at it from here, it's not a place where hooligans gather." Zhang He frowned when he came to a house.

"Difficulty (low), result (perfect), tracking boost 20 (+10) experience, current (beginner 20/1000)"

The game has been cleared, and the settlement has arrived, which means that the house is where the den of thieves is located.

No matter how you look at it, these are big families.

Having said that, there will be so many options, and the clues are so obscure, which is also directly related to the low skill.

"It's them?" Zhang Fei's face turned dark, no wonder he felt that this was a bit weird.

If the other party's purpose was not to make money in the first place, many things would make sense.

"Here?" Zhang He was a little surprised, Zhang Fei seemed to know this house.

"Da Dao, there are two iron shops in Zhuo County..." Zhang Fei looked at Zhang He, "It's better to say that another iron shop opened and poached our craftsmen, so our iron shop was closed."

It turned out that the iron shop couldn't continue to operate, so he threw it to himself, and Zhang He was also speechless.

"The opponent's goal is not money, but you!" Zhang Fei said seriously.

Zhang He also realized that if he didn't go to Zhang's house for dinner, he would most likely stay at home.

Normally, it would be very easy for three or five people from the other party to break in and take away the weak 16-year-old me.

From the very beginning, the other party's goal was not the family's money, but for him!
"Then what are you waiting for, it's rare to have an excuse to come to your door, rush in?" Zhang He pointed to the house.

"Of course it's okay to rush in, but if the other party denies it, there's nothing we can do..." Zhang Fei was a little confused, "The other party is official, but there is something to do with it."

If the other party has no background, and the background is a bit big, Zhang Fei brought someone to the door when he was digging for Zhang's iron shop craftsman.

"Rush in now, maybe I still have a way." Zhang He was thoughtful.

"That's what you said!" Zhang Fei endured the other party for a long time, and immediately led someone to call for the door.

Just as the servants of the other party opened the door, two or thirty people entered in a file, and the house was frightened for a while.

It's just that the other party is not waiting to be slaughtered, and a dozen guards rushed out immediately.

"What are you arguing about?" Not long after, a man with a pot belly came out, "Who is so bold to bully our Zhao family?"

"It's just a trash who bullies men and women by relying on eunuchs." Zhang Fei snorted coldly, but didn't dare to shout out loud.

Zhao Zhong was an eunuch, and he was an official until Da Changqiu. He had experienced the two emperors of Huan Ling, and he could be said to have great power.

Relying on this relationship, his clansmen did many things that hurt nature and reason.

It is said that Zhang Yuan's daughter was changed from a refugee to an official slave by their hands.

Not to mention being an outsider, bullying and dominating the market is a matter of course. There is no big mistake on the surface, and the eunuch is not easy to start.

"What bullied you, you guys bullied us!" Zhang Fei stood up, "Patriarch Zhao is so powerful, not to mention the craftsmen who dug up the Zhang family before, but now he wants to kidnap my younger brother?"

"Patriarch Zhang, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense!" Patriarch Zhao's face immediately darkened, "You can't talk nonsense about things without evidence, otherwise I will go to the yamen and sue you for trespassing and slandering others!"

"If you want evidence, I have it!" Zhang He walked out, "The three nursing homes over there, can you please come out for a while! Of course, there are two over there!"

"What do you mean?" The head of the Zhao family immediately became vigilant.

"A few people broke into my house tonight. Unfortunately, Mr. Zhang has done a lot of blacksmithing in the past three months, and there is a lot of carbon ash every day. This thing can fertilize the fields, so I collected it specially and put it near the back door..." Zhang He pointed to the five people.

Everyone immediately noticed that the bodies of these five people were more or less covered with carbon ash.

"The five of them are guarding the firewood room. It's normal to have carbon ash on their bodies." The Patriarch of the Zhao family insisted.

"It's just that someone accidentally got a lot of carbon dust on their hands, and when they passed by the alley, they put their hands on the wall, leaving a very clear palm print. Just take him there and compare them to confirm whether it is him!" Zhang He pointed to one of the guards.

He did not have any carbon ash in his hand, after all, it had been a while since he was engaged in hairpin.

But when Zhang He mentioned this, he subconsciously wiped his hands on his trousers, and Zhang He noticed it immediately.

"How can you tell it's him based on just one palm print?" The Patriarch of the Zhao family sneered, this was the funniest joke he had ever heard.

"Of course, there are no two identical leaves in the world, and naturally there are no identical palms." Zhang He stepped forward and grabbed each other's hand, "There are no identical palm prints!"

"Then how do you conclude that the palm print was printed tonight?" the Patriarch of the Zhao family retorted.

"Ah?" Zhang He looked at Patriarch Zhao with a puzzled look on his face, "Zhang didn't seem to say when they broke in, why did Patriarch Zhao insist on the time of 'tonight'? Could it be that Patriarch Zhao knew about this?"

"You rush in now, that couldn't have happened last night, could it?" Patriarch Zhao immediately denied it.

To be honest, Zhang He even wanted to punch him, but unfortunately he couldn't. Zhang Fei was afraid of the opponent's background, so he could only follow the legal procedure.

"Well, it is a fact that these five people broke into private houses and looted property. Please also ask Patriarch Zhao to hand it over to us and send it to the government to deal with it!" Zhang Fei took the initiative to ask the Zhao family to be the master.

"Hmph, are you still an official post? Why do you take people?!" Patriarch Zhao retorted.

"It's okay if I come to fetch people, right?" A voice came from behind, but it was Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei who came hand in hand.

Behind the two of them, there is Cao Cao, a thief from Zhuo County, and a dozen or so thieves arresting him.

Zhang He looked at Gongsun Zan in surprise, and then looked at Zhang Fei, only to see him grinning.

I didn't know it was the Zhao family before, but I just thought it would be better for the government to come forward for things like catching thieves, so I asked the nursing home to call someone in advance.

"Magistrate Gongsun, do you know the consequences of arresting people here?" Patriarch Zhao sneered.

"Someone under my rule is committing thieves, and it is my duty to catch the thief!" Gongsun Zan was reckless in the first place, and he took advantage of the reason, so he didn't give the other party any face.

Immediately ordered people to take the five nursing homes away, one of them took to the alley, took his hand up and pressed it, it was really not too big or too small.

In order to confirm Zhang He's statement, I asked several people to compare and found that the sizes are indeed different, not the same.

"It's a pity that there is no evidence of Zhao Shu's crime, otherwise he must be dealt with!" Gongsun Zan ordered the five people to be escorted down, but he was not satisfied with the result.

"You can't say that. If the five of them come out to commit a crime once, they will naturally commit crimes countless times." Liu Bei thought for a while, "If we can interrogate them properly, we may learn many interesting things."

"Haha, Xuande is still the smartest!" Gongsun Zan was overjoyed, and immediately arranged manpower for interrogation overnight.

Now that the matter has come to this point, there is nothing to do with Zhang and Zhang Fei. Naturally, they go back to their respective homes.

　One thing is very interesting, that is, there are actually 12 people in the ten permanent attendants...

　　Later I checked, Zhao Zhong was not simple, he was already a regular attendant during Emperor Huan's time.During the period of Emperor Ling, with the death of Cao Teng, he became Da Changqiu as a substitute.In other words, Zhao Zhong is no longer a regular attendant.

　　The Zhao family was indeed overstepping. When Huangfusong was the governor of Jizhou, he reported this matter to the court.

　　At the same time, he refused Zhang's request for a bribe of 5000 million yuan, and was finally dismissed from office, and [-] households in Shiyi were cut off.

　　As far as the arrogance of the Zhao family is concerned, if they really come to Zhuo County to develop, they don't care about the distribution of benefits at all.
　　By the way, let me explain why Zhang's family doesn't have an iron shop, and why they gave the protagonist the unmanned iron shop.

　　Of course, it's just a setting, it has nothing to do with history, just read it.

　　Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, ask for follow-up reading!
