Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

Shouting all the way, walking all the way.

By the time we arrived at the March Inn, there were already more than 100 people following us.

It seems that gossip is everyone’s nature!

The ancients were no exception.

When they arrived at the inn, Zhao Yuanzhen, the county magistrate, his servants, and the waiter prepared to go upstairs.

Before going upstairs, Zhao Yuanzhen stopped everyone again.

"Wait a minute!"

"What's wrong? Are you regretting it?"

The county magistrate asked casually.

"No, I just think we should find a few more witnesses. After all, the March Inn is a big inn in Xiafang County. What happened today? What if I expose the truth and kill people to silence them? After all, we are outsiders. I am very scared. I wonder if there are any enthusiastic people willing to help us be witnesses!"

Zhao Yuanzhen was afraid that the news would not be spread or the facts would be distorted, so she planned to find a few witnesses.

"I, I can, I can help you be a witness."

"I, I can also bear witness for you."

"I can too."

"And I can, too."

"And I."

After a while, more than one person stood up.

Zhao Yuanzhen was very satisfied. Such helpful people all had a gossipy heart.

Moreover, the person who stood up must be a prominent figure in the society, so there is no need to worry that the news will not spread.

"Okay, thank you all. Please follow me up to witness it."

Zhao Yuanzhen wanted to lead them upstairs.

"Wait a moment.!"

One of the witnesses suddenly stopped.

"What's the matter, kind-hearted man? What's the matter?"

Zhao Yuanzhen asked kindly.

The person who was called a kind-hearted person scratched his head embarrassedly.

"I am willing to be a witness, but I don't know the whole story. How can I bear witness? What should I bear witness to? You have to tell us!"

He just heard Lan Ying's shouting and followed over, and didn't know the details.

The others also had the same expression on their faces. They were still a little confused after eating this melon!

"I'm sorry, everyone. I forgot. Here's what happened. Let me explain it to you in detail.

Yesterday, my family and I, the four of us, took a carriage into the city from the east gate. After entering the city, we looked for a relatively large inn to rest, and then found the March Inn. The innkeeper saw us coming in and warmly entertained us. We chose four upper rooms. The waiter saw that our carriage was luxurious and large, so he enthusiastically said that he would take us to the backyard to take care of it.

Our carriage was very big, like a small house, and was pulled by four horses. I wonder if anyone saw us entering the city yesterday."

Zhao Yuanzhen felt that someone should have seen them. When they entered the city yesterday, it was around five o'clock, and there were quite a few people on the street at that time.

Since our own carriage is so eye-catching, people should still have an impression of it.

"Now that you put it that way, I know. I saw it yesterday. It was a huge carriage. It was pulled by four horses. The carriage was almost as big as a house, so tall and big. The horses were also very good-looking. You can tell at a glance that they were from the north. They were tall and big, with shiny coats!"

"Yes, yes, I saw it too. The carriage was really big. I took a few extra glances at it. At the time, I thought that I had never seen such a carriage in Xiafang County. It couldn't be a gatekeeper from outside. I didn't expect it to be true!"

"I saw it, too. I wanted to go up and touch it."

"Me too."

"Although I didn't see it, I heard from my friend that it was two very large carriages, the same size as the house, and each carriage was pulled by four horses."

"I've heard that, too."

"Me too, I heard it from my friend."

Zhao Yuanzhen was very satisfied. You see, the public has a good memory.

"Yes, those two carriages belong to my family. The waiter enthusiastically sent them to the backyard for me, saying that he would help us take care of them. But now the carriages are gone. What's even worse is that someone broke into my grandson's bedroom last night and stole something. But he knew a little martial arts and subdued the thief. I thought I would report it to the police in the morning, and I couldn't bother the county magistrate in the middle of the night."

"Oh, what a considerate lady! That's great. This lady is so considerate, she can't be lying."

"Who says it isn't?"

"Yeah yeah!"

Look, the people's mouths are as sweet as honey, which is really good.

"We got up early in the morning and locked the thief in the room. We didn't dare to disturb the shopkeeper, so we went out to eat breakfast. It took about two quarters of an hour. When we came back, the thief in the room was gone. The doors and windows of the room were all fine, and there were no traces. Where do you think he went? We were afraid that the thief would harm others again, so we quickly sent our family members to report to the police. We don't know how the thief got out."

Zhao Yuanzhen asked everyone present sincerely.

Those who listen to gossip and eat melons instantly have their thoughts divided.

It's impossible for such a living person to die for no reason.

The doors and windows were not broken, and there were no traces, so he must have left through the door.

If you go through the door, you need a key to unlock it.

Who has the key to this room?

Zhao Yuanzhen and the others have them, but the inn must also have spare keys.

Then this...

Isn't this obvious!

The case is solved!

This March Inn might really be a shady shop!

“They sent someone to report the case, and we wanted to go and check out the carriage and the horses.

When they arrived at the backyard, these people said they didn't see any carriage or horses.

There are no such cars.

Moreover, our informant had not returned, so we had to go to the government office again. The county magistrate called the waiter, but the waiter said that we did not live here and had never seen us. I said that we had the key, so he invited the county magistrate to testify that our key could not open the lock at all. And this is exactly what I asked everyone to testify. "

"Don't worry, the key will open the lock, and we will all be your witnesses. Don't be afraid."

"Yes, don't be afraid, we will bear witness for you."

"Yes, there we are, this black shop!"

Zhao Yuanzhen felt it deeply.

There are still many good people among the masses.

"Well, I would like to thank you all in advance, but now there is a problem. Our key is not only ours, but someone else also has it. What if he opens the lock while we are reporting the case and changes it to another one? Wouldn't our key be useless?"

"Yes, this lady is absolutely right!"

"Yeah, it's just a matter of changing the lock."

"Yeah yeah!"

"Fortunately, when we go out to play, we all have a habit. Every time we arrive at a place, we will leave a note saying who was there. For example, the one in my room says, "Miss Zhao, was here."

"Mine is [Blue Girl Was Here]."

"Mine is [Young Master Zhang was here]."

What is this habit?

After hearing what Zhao Yuanzhen said, the waiter and the shopkeeper looked unhappy.

So does the county magistrate.

This guy is really smart.

"Okay, everyone, in order to prevent someone from destroying the evidence, we are going to open the lock now. What I want everyone to witness now is that this lock cannot be opened. There must be a note in the room. Come on, everyone, follow me to witness it. Thank you all for your kindness!"

Zhao Yuanzhen raised her arm and called everyone to go upstairs.

Just now on the stairs, she was at the top, guarding the stairs, and basically people below couldn't go up.

Now, everyone followed Zhao Yuanzhen upstairs.

Zhao Yuanzhen found her key and handed it to one of the witnesses.

"In order to prevent people from accusing me of lying, we asked kind witnesses to open the lock. Thank you for your hard work."

Lan Ying and Zhang Zijin's keys were also handed over to the enthusiastic witness.

A few enthusiastic spectators took the key and tried to open the door for a long time, but failed.

Zhao Yuanzhen looked at the county magistrate.

"Mr. County Magistrate, please ask the waiter to open the door now."

The county magistrate's mouth twitched, feeling like he was being forced to do something he was not prepared for.

"Go, get the keys and open all the doors."

The waiter, who had been full of confidence, now became a little timid, fearing that there really was the note Zhao Yuanzhen mentioned in the room.

Therefore, he hesitated and was unwilling to move.

"Why, Xiao Er, are you afraid of my note? Are you feeling guilty?"

"It's okay if you feel guilty. Just admit that you stole our things, and we will beat you less. Let everyone know that your March Inn is a black shop that takes human life lightly."

"Nonsense. Our March Inn is obviously a legitimate inn. I'll go get the key now."

Now that things have come to this point, I can’t stand it anymore.

I can only follow Zhao Yuanzhen's wishes.

The waiter reluctantly got the key and came to open the door.

Sure enough, it opened immediately.

For searching the note.

Zhao Yuanzhen still found a few kind-hearted people to go in and search.

The few people followed the place Zhao Yuanzhen said and found the note that Zhao Yuanzhen mentioned about visiting the place.

"I found it."

"I found it too."

+2.

"Ma'am, look, I really found it. Are these the ones you put there?"

An enthusiastic citizen quickly took it and showed it to Zhao Yuanzhen.

"Yes, these are the ones we wrote ourselves. They are our own handwriting and others cannot imitate them. Thank you so much to all the enthusiastic people."

Zhao Yuanzhen took a few notes, brought them to the county magistrate and showed them to him.

Just as the county magistrate was about to reach out to take it, Zhao Yuanzhen took it back.

"My Lord, I'll keep this important evidence myself."

The county magistrate glared at this man, who openly refused to give him face.

"You don't trust me?"

Zhao Yuanzhen nodded truthfully.

"Yes, I just don't trust you, the county magistrate. After all, you asked me to prove that the carriage I lost was mine. I dare not trust you."

"Hmph! Sharp teeth and sharp mouth."

"Sir, now is not the time to criticize me. Shouldn't you deal with this thieving black shop first?"
