Chapter 1213: Could there be an insider?
Xia Baoer just drank half a cup of tea.
She dipped her handkerchief into the corners of her lips.
Wu Lingling's eyes were shining brightly under the lights in the hall.
"Master Yu, I thought about this matter carefully in the afternoon, and some details are quite confusing.
I can't understand it after thinking about it, so I just want to tell you and listen to it, but maybe I'm overthinking it, and it's up to Mr. Yu to make his own judgment. ”
Prefect Yu sat down quickly and stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation: "It's okay, Miss."
Xia Baoer lowered his eyelashes and said in deep thought: "This group of thieves has been around for a long time.
According to the character of the shopkeeper in the inn where they were hiding, he must have tried every means to report him to the official.
No matter what reason he failed, the people in that small town were not blind.
Someone must have seen these thieves entering and leaving the inn, or left some traces behind.
After all, there were so many of them, it was impossible to keep them airtight. ”
Governor Yu nodded while listening, and began to think.
Xia Baoer pursed her lips: "They killed people without any scruples, robbed a lot of property, and were very familiar with the method of infusing sweat.
Thinking about it, he must be confident. However, North Vietnam's laws are strict, and those who commit such crimes will be punished with death if caught.
But they didn't seem to be afraid. I thought of what Mr. Yu said. Every time I tried to catch them, they ran away.
From this, we can guess whether there might be some insiders from them around Mr. Yu? If someone delivers the news in advance, they will naturally run away after hearing the news. ”
The little girl gave a clear explanation.
Like a clear thunderstorm, it fell directly on the top of Prefect Yu's head.
yes!
Why didn't he think of that?
Traces of thieves have been found every time before.
There are also many people who report to officials or secretly explain.
But every time I went to arrest him, it was all in vain. Apparently the thieves received the news in advance!
Prefect Yu already had a calculation in his mind.
He quickly cupped his hands and thanked her: "My lady's words are like enlightenment. Please accept my worship!"
After saying that, Prefect Yu stood up and bowed to Xia Baoer.
The little girl laughed and hid behind Gong Yu Fei.
"Master Yu is my elder after all. How can I accept a courtesy from my elder? Sir, please sit down and don't be too polite."
Next, the Yu couple treated Gong Yufei and Xia Baoer even more enthusiastically.
After finishing the meal, Prefect Yu was almost drunk.
Mrs. Yu supported him while he sprayed the smell of alcohol on his face, and said without forgetting: "Ms. Young Master, tomorrow I have made an appointment with a bureaucrat friend to keep you company. I will take you to the famous Maple Leaf Tower in the city to see the scenery. Please be sure to show your respect."
After speaking, he leaned his head and was drunk.
Mrs. Yu smiled apologetically: "He doesn't drink well and makes the distinguished guests laugh."
Gong Yufei nodded, with a gentle and calm temperament: "Mrs. Yu doesn't need to see anyone outside. You are a big master, but you still have to take care of yourself."
Mrs. Yu nodded and said that she would not accompany him much, so she asked the servants to support Prefect Yu while she followed behind.
Gong Yufei held Xia Baoer's hand, and the two of them strolled along the corridor to the courtyard.
Stars are falling, embedded in the velvet black night.
The evening breeze blew gently by, and Xia Baoer's hair was gently raised.
Gong Yufei chuckled: "Bao'er is getting more powerful now, and he actually got the truth of the matter."
What he was talking about was that just now in the hall, the little girl speculated that there were thieves in the government.
Xia Baoer blinked: "I didn't calculate it, I guessed it based on clues!"
