Chapter 717 Small House
Mo Cheng Hutong, Ma's hometown.
When Meng Shisan came here for the first time, the neighbors frequently poked their heads out of the courtyard to look. Anyone who saw her would say that she was here to see Mr. Ma.
But when the neighbors saw that she was a little girl, rich and dignified, extremely beautiful, and with an air of grace all over her body, she must be a daughter of a noble family. They did not dare to criticize her, and they did not dare to further ask her why she came to see Mr. Ma.
Meng Shisan knocked on the door, and Mr. Ma opened the door quickly. When he walked out of the door, he saluted: "Miss."
He had a smile on his face and a respectful voice, which further established in the hearts of his neighbors that Meng Shisan must be the daughter of a wealthy family that they could not afford to offend.
Meng Shisan nodded: "I apologize for the suddenness."
"Eldest lady, please come in." Mr. Ma stepped aside, revealing the courtyard door behind him, and said loudly to the neighbors who were still peeking their heads in, "This noble lady is the eldest lady of Meng Tian's official residence. You don't have to Worry, the eldest lady is very kind to the little old man. She is here for business, not to cause trouble for the little old man.”
When the old woman next door heard this, she bravely walked out of the courtyard and said, "That's good. We thought it was another dog taking advantage of others..."
Before the old woman could finish her words, she was forcefully pulled back by the people inside the courtyard gate. A low and urgent voice reached the ears of Meng Shisan, who had just stepped into the courtyard of Ma's hometown: "Mother! Uncle Ma is here." After all, this noble man is very kind to Uncle Ma, so mother can’t talk nonsense!”
"Hey, hey, I'm just quick to talk..."
"Don't talk too fast!"
As the mother and son returned to the house, their voices became fainter and fainter, until they could not be heard at all.
Mr. Ma turned around and explained to Meng Shisan: "In the past, there was a government official who used his power to make things difficult for me. Both mother and son knew about it. When the eldest lady came, they misunderstood."
"Nothing." Meng Shisan walked into the courtyard.
Ma Lao closed the courtyard door and led Meng Shisan to the main room.
After entering the main room, Mr. Ma went to boil water and make tea, while Meng Shisan sat down in an old armchair on one side of the room.
As long as you are a monster, you can actually live a good life if you pay a little attention to it, at least you don't have to live like Ma's hometown.
After a while, Mr. Ma came back with two bowls of tea and placed one of them in front of Meng Shisan’s table: “Miss, please use it.”
"Before I came here, I first visited the place where the two refugees lived." Meng Shisan bluntly stated the reason for coming here today.
Ma Laodao said: "I also looked at that shack and found nothing."
"That's right." Meng Shisan continued, "I guess they should have another place where they eat."
Mr. Ma also agreed with this: "I also asked some people today, but I haven't asked the second place yet."
Meng Shisan said: "I asked Baozhu to inquire about it."
"The eldest lady came here specifically to ask about this?"
"I first went to my Mingyue Di store in Nanshu Hutong and met with the shopkeeper Yu. I also asked shopkeeper Yu about some rumors about this matter, as well as what shopkeeper Yu asked the waiter to go and see the excitement that night."
Mr. Ma asked: "Miss, do you want to check it yourself?"
"Since I asked you to check, I won't check anymore. Today I went to Di's shop to ask if anyone has been raped by Poppi. I asked along the way, and also stopped by Wase to have a look." Meng Shisan had no intention of checking the group fight by himself. There was only one thing she wanted to explain clearly about the whole story of the bloodshed, "As you said, I couldn't see the true nature of those two evil spirits, so I just wanted to see them." Look, see if you can see any traces of it in the place where the two refugees live. "The eldest lady wants to find out the true nature of the evil spirit that is possessing the two refugees, and then target its weaknesses to destroy it?" Mr. Ma also thinks that the meaning of three is a way, "Then the eldest lady wants to go to the Jingya Prison in person?"
Meng Shisan nodded and said truthfully: "My sister Meijing's uncle is Wu Pinbai, the official in charge of the Beijing Yamen, and he is also the official who is presiding over this matter."
Then, she told Mr. Ma about Wu Pinbo's head being smashed with brute force by one of the refugees because he was interrogating two refugees.
After hearing this, Mr. Ma said: "So that's the case. For Miss Meng's uncle, the eldest lady really has to deal with the evil spirit possessing her in time. Is there anything I need to do?"
< br>
He called Meng Shisan directly as the eldest lady, and Meng Meijing as the second lady Meng. The extra surname Meng separated the close and distant ones.
"You don't have to worry about this. I'll let Baozhu inform you when the results are available. Just follow your progress and check your results." Meng Shisan said, "I came to you to tell you this. , The second is to wait for news about the orb.”
Ma Lao understands.
The two then chatted about other things and waited while chatting.
After Baozhu inquired about it, he went to Ma's hometown to report back. It was almost noon.
Mr. Ma didn't go out, and there was no other direction to check, so he and Meng Shisan went to the second place that Baozhu asked about.

The second place is a small house. As soon as you enter, it is located in a back alley on the side of Nanshu Hutong across Santiao Hutong outside the house.
Mr. Ma looked at the boundary: "This is the back alley between Datie Hutong and Nanshu Hutong."
"Yes, Miss, I have already asked you clearly. This small house faces Nanshu Alley in the front, and faces the Blacksmith Alley in the back." Baozhu inquired about the location and understood, "And this small house I heard that the house was bought by a merchant. Because he often travels between the capital and Jinling, it remains empty most of the year. "
"So no one knows about the two refugees living there?" Meng Shisan expressed doubts after asking, "Then the merchant just left his small house empty and closed?"
Although it was only a one-time move in, it was only bought with real money and silver. It was used to do business in the capital. How could he ignore the place where he could live?
Baozhu shook his head and said: "It's not that he doesn't care at all. The merchant has asked the family next door to help take care of him, and he also gave him some money. It's just that the family next door also has their own work, and they don't have time to look after this little one all the time. This gave the two refugees an opportunity to take advantage of the house.”
"How to get in?" This question was asked not only by Ma Lao, but also by Baozhu. Meng Shisan looked between the two.
Both Ma Lao and Baozhu understood instantly.
Baozhu's face fell: "Miss, I failed to get the key that the merchant left in the house next door."
It was Ma Lao's turn to take action: "Then...I'll do it."
Meng Shisan understood: "Okay."
Baozhu didn't understand: "How can the old gentleman get here?"
Mr. Ma smiled very mysteriously: "Wait a moment."
After saying that, he walked around to the back wall of the small house.
Baozhu looked at it and asked Meng Shisan: "Miss, does the old gentleman want to enter through the back door?"
Meng Shisan didn’t want to take action, so Ma Lao took action. Everyone was a demon, so she knew how to take action without even thinking about it: “I don’t know.”
