Chapter 112 Casino
Xinnuo smiled mysteriously: "This is my secret dipping sauce. If you want to know it, you have to pay me."

Chu Wei thought of going to look for her for the first time, and she was the same way. He said that if he wanted to know, he had to agree to a condition, but later she actually asked him to buy food.

He smiled and said: "Let's be honest, what do you want to eat?"

What to eat?
Xinnuo turned over the meat slices on the grill, took out a clean cabbage leaf, wrapped it up and ate it in one bite, then said, "I'm eating it right now."

Chu Wei said: "Then what do you want?"

Xinnuo actually couldn't think of what he wanted. He thought for a while and said, "The reward is that no matter what the situation is in the future, you must put me first."

Can this be requested?
He only has it in his heart, no need to ask for it.

Chu Wei did not hesitate, nodded and said: "Okay."

Xinnuo smiled and told him about this versatile barbecue dipping sauce.

The other three people:---
Let’s just talk about my master, do you lack this thing?

After a while, venison skewers came over from the kitchen.

Chu Wei replaced Xinnuo's position and took over the barbecue, and Xinnuo became the one responsible for eating. One moment, he first made a bunch of steamed buns, and the next he handed over a bunch of beans and leeks.

Chu Wei, who had never seen so many roastable vegetables, looked at her again and again in surprise.

Xin Nuo smiled and said: "What's the matter? With such a delicious dipping sauce, everything can be grilled."

They were halfway through eating when Zhang Ku came back.

"What errands did you go on and it took you so long to come back?" Xin Nuo was curious.

The whole person still looked sad, and it seemed that things were not going well.

Zhang Ku took a steamed bun skewer from Piaofeng and took a bite. He was surprised by the deliciousness of this small grilled steamed bun, and his whole body was relieved from the depression just now.

"Although we try our best to let those people describe the victims' characteristics clearly, there are still a large number of victims who cannot be identified based on their characteristics alone."

He said, shaking his head.Thinking of the people who came to look for their relatives, my appetite wasn't that great.

When Xin Nuo, who now has a complete memory of two lives, heard this, he suddenly remembered a course he had taken in modern times, human face restoration.

If you don’t have a computer, you can rely on clay sculpture.

As long as you know enough about the human body and have certain physiological knowledge, you can try to complete it.

Xin Nuo said: "Didn't we find a lot of bones? I can try to restore the face according to the skull."

As soon as these words came out, the master and servants of Chu Wei were shocked.

"Girl, can you recognize people by their bones?" Xiao Shan said.

Can you tell people by their bones?

"That's right," Xinnuo said, "It should be possible to restore the faces of those corpses to almost the same appearance as before they were alive."

For a moment, Zhang Ku and others were surprised and couldn't wait to see Xin Nuo perform his magic.

Chu Wei was shocked for a moment and then calmed down and said, "Eat first."

Xinnuo looked at him: "Don't you believe it?"

Chu Wei said with a smile: "Of course I believe it, but I thought that it shouldn't be able to recover with a wave of my hand, so I'd better eat first."

He handed her a skewer of venison that was still sizzling with oil and said, "Let's talk about the rest when you're full."

Xinnuo took it with both hands. After waking up from her dream today and seeing Chu Wei again, her own childish mentality became even stronger.

I especially want to rely on him, and I especially want to express myself in front of him.

It is said that male peacocks open their tails when courting, but I never thought that a little girl like me would also have this characteristic.

When she heard that he was just worried that she didn't have enough to eat, Xin Nuo unconsciously sat down next to him and whispered: "Thank you, senior brother."

This was the first time she called Chu Wei that way after the two of them learned about the identities of their senior brothers.

Chu Wei had never thought that the simple words "Elder Brother" sounded so beautiful. The corners of his lips curled up, and then he took off the golden meat slices from the grill, wrapped the cabbage and handed it over.

Xin Nuo smiled.

There seemed to be some indescribable sweet scent coming out of her body. Chu Wei took a deep breath inconspicuously, and immediately felt a little uncomfortable.

After lunch, Xinnuo and his party walked vigorously towards Yizhuang, west of the government office. On the road, people kept hearing that Xinnuo was going to reshape the human bones. When they arrived at Yizhuang, there were already more than a dozen people following them.

Xinnuo said he wanted clay.

Soon it came from outside.

The sun gradually moved to the west. Liu Bantou, who woke up from his nap in the yamen, came out and found that the entire yamen was quieter than before, and he was instantly shocked.

He ran out in a hurry.

"Master Liu, what are you in a hurry for?"

Walking to the gate, the guard guard asked curiously.

Bantou Liu hurriedly said: "The master of the palace has taken people out to work, and I have to go with him."

The guard said amusedly: "Who told you that the Master is out?"

Leader Liu: "I heard in the morning that Brother Zhang said that he was going to arrest the members of the Qianji Sect who are still active outside in the past two days. Why, it's so quiet in the yamen. Didn't you go to arrest them?"

"No," the officer pointed to the east, "the new girl has a unique skill. She can pick out the appearance of the owner of the corpse just by looking at the bones. Everything in the yamen that is okay is visited. Especially that Several gangsters are clamoring to be the new girl's apprentice."

He also went to see it just now. This is the class. Xiao Chen went over and changed him back.

Can you look at the bones and pinch out a person?

Liu Bantou was dubious, and just as he was about to go over, there was an old woman dragging a girl over, saying that she came to the city to see her son, but no one was found when she arrived where her son lived.

The old woman was frightened when she saw the official. She knelt on the ground before she could finish a few words.

However, the rules of the government office are very different now. Mr. Fu Zun loves the people very much. No matter who comes to the door of the government office, he is very approachable.

For an old woman of this age, someone would bring a stool and ask her to sit down and talk.

Bantou Liu did not dare to let the old woman kneel, lest the news would reach the ears of the Lord of the Palace and affect his promotion. He immediately bent down to help the woman up and said patiently: "Old woman, you have something to say slowly, there is no need to kneel down." .You just said that your son can't be found. Is it because he hasn't been seen for a few days, or because your son is working outside and hasn't returned for a while?"

The old woman's arms were shaking, she was scared and a little excited at the same time.

She never expected that the official in the capital's yamen would be easier to talk to than Bao Jia in their town.

"Replying to your lord," the old woman became calmer, but even more grateful than before, "The old woman's surname is Mo. She is from Xinghua Village on the outskirts of Beijing. She has a son who works in a rice store in the capital. She rents a house. I went to the street across from Mihang and couldn't find my son, so I asked in the yard and they all said that he hadn't been seen for three to five days. When the owner of the house heard that I was going, he went over specifically and said that I My son didn’t pay the monthly rent last month.”

"I also heard people say that there was a big case that killed many people recently. The old woman was really worried, so she came over to report the case."

The old woman spoke in detail. Liu Bantou asked her son which street he lived on and which rice store he worked at. Then he said, "Please go inside and have a cup of tea first. You must send someone there later." Help you find your son."

"Hey, thank you, sir, thank you, sir," the old woman said as she bowed and followed a servant to the government office.

Although I was too scared to go in, I didn't dare to say that I didn't dare to go in.

Bantou Liu thought that the master of the palace was here now, so he didn't make the decision himself and walked towards the Yizhuang next door.

Yizhuang is a very large hall design, because there are some unclaimed bones in the yamen, and when you walk in, you feel that there is a draft going into the bones.

This is not the first time that Team Leader Liu has been here, but today is different. Before he even entered the door, cheers could be heard.

"It's like, it's so similar."

"New girl, can you ask me to try it?" This person shouted the loudest.

Bantou Liu recognized that it was the old man in the yamen who gasped three times with every step he took.

Is it really that amazing?
Confused, he walked to the east side where many bones were placed, and then shouted: "Sir."

At the sound of "Sir", several people turned around, and it turned out that two colleagues were also there.

After meeting Li, Bantou Liu told the story about the old woman who came to report her son's disappearance, and then glanced through the gaps in the crowd.

Mom, this is too similar.

Bantou Liu said in his heart that although he didn't know whether he looked like the owner of the bones during his lifetime, he actually looked like the same person.

Chu Wei looked at Xinnuo, who was surrounded by several people asking for advice, and stopped his two colleagues who were about to handle the case, "I'll go take a look."

He left the crowd and told Zhang Ku, who had followed his father out when he saw him leaving, "You are here to take good care of the girl."

"Sir, what's the matter? Why don't you go and handle it?" Zhang Ku said.

"You all stay here," Chu Wei said a few more words before leaving.

Bantou Liu wants to stay and see this craft. Didn’t he see that many people want to learn it?
But if I think about it carefully, it would be better for me to follow along.

In the government office, the old woman was holding tea and had not even taken two sips when she saw a tall and noble young man walking in. The official who had a good attitude just now followed behind and said: "Old woman, this is our Your Excellency, if you are free today, I will personally help you find your son. Why don't you thank me very much?"

The old woman kept chanting Buddha's name, put down the tea bowl and kowtowed on the ground. Chu Wei hurriedly helped her up and said: "Old lady, don't worry, I already know the specific situation. I will take a few people to take a look near Mihang. look."

"Thank you, sir, thank you--" the old woman nodded.

Seeing that she had a child with her, Chu Wei said, "You and your child should wait in the yamen first. I should be able to help you find the person before night."

Upon hearing the adult's firm words, the old woman's heart finally fell.

No matter what, as long as nothing happens.

When they came out, Bantou Liu followed Chu Wei and said, "Master Chu, why are you so sure? What if there is an accident?"

Chu Wei strode out with his hands behind his back. A group of officers came from both sides with their waist knives. Hearing this, he said: "There are two big gambling shops nearby, Zhang's rice shop. I have passed there before and I have seen it before." Avoid day laborers wearing coarse linen clothes coming in and out. Another thing is, in the capital, under the emperor's feet, unless it is a deliberate act like the Thousand Machines Sect, few people can hide the body for three to five days."

Bantou Liu received such a detailed explanation, and his heart felt grateful and warm.

The Lord of the Palace can be so patient in explaining to him a small official. From now on, he will do his best to serve you.

Sure enough, as Chu Wei expected, he first took his people to the gambling houses near Zhang's rice store to search for them. The first one they found was Mo Youxian, the son of old lady Mo.

This man's eyes were red from gambling at the gambling table. It turned out that he finished his work three days ago and wanted to come here to gamble with a few guys he frequented. Unexpectedly, he was very lucky and won three games in a row.

The two coins that were originally just a casual bet suddenly swelled to two taels. Mo Youxian also swelled and continued to gamble excitedly.

By midnight, I had won 30 taels of silver.

None of his companions expected that his gambling luck would be so good today, so they advised him to stop and go home in time.

With these 30 taels of silver, I can buy three or four acres of fertile land and live a stable life at home.

But there is no time to be reluctant. In front of him at this time, three or four acres of fertile land are nothing.He wants to take advantage of his good luck in gambling and win a high-rise building, a concubine and a beautiful maid.

All the most beautiful things in life flashed through his mind.

However, gambling luck would not always favor him. After resting the next day, Mo Youxian, who had a good meal, went to the gambling table again. This time, he would miss nine times out of ten.

He couldn't accept this result, and even made a splash, saying that there was a crook in the casino, and he had to be taught a lesson by the casino's thugs before he became honest.

After losing all the 30 taels he won and his capital, Mo Youxian was even more unwilling to leave. He wanted to make money back. This time, he didn't ask for more than the 30 taels he won yesterday.

However, the more he gambled, the more he lost. The more he lost, the more impatient and afraid he became. In the end, he signed a contract to sell his daughter in exchange for his wife.

Now, what Chu Wei is holding in his hand is a deed signed by several people who look like Mo Youxian.

He frowned deeply, finally folded it and handed it to the servant beside him, and asked, "Where is the casino owner?"

A short, fat, black, middle-aged man wiped his sweat and crawled out from a nest of gamblers and thugs squatting on the ground. He knelt down and said, "See you, Lord Prefect."

Chu Wei asked: "Do you know that the law stipulates that people are not allowed to be bought and sold at will?"

The fat middle-aged man said: "Sir, this is not forced by villains, they are all voluntarily signed."

Chu Wei said: "In the casino, there is no so-called love between you and me. From today on, your casino will sign any deed, and you cannot sign the deed of sale on behalf of others. Do you understand?"

As for children, in the Great Moon Law, those under the age of 12 are not allowed to be bought or sold.

The fat black man was in a dilemma. He looked at the fat sheep in the room and said, "But sir, repaying debts is a principle that has not changed since ancient times."

There is no law prohibiting gambling in Dayue. Chu Wei did not refute the position of the casino owner, but only said: "Then the debtor will sell himself."

Looking at this room where no sunlight could penetrate, he knew that this place, like the bright brothel, was the darkest place in the moon.

If you roll around here, people who are obviously humans will turn into beasts.

"It's gone. It's gone."

The police officers were driving around the place randomly, and then some smart people took advantage of the chaos and escaped.

Chu Wei asked someone to mention Mo Youxian and went directly to the government office.

The fat black man looked at the messy casino, straightened up, and shook his sleeves fiercely.

This Ruiminghou really regarded himself as the lord of the capital.

"Here comes someone," he said. "Prepare the sedan chair. I'll go to the mansion for a walk."

In this line of work, who would dare to stand on the streets of the capital without a backstage?
