Chapter 461 The crime of having a jade(2/2)
Shiluo is little known locally, and none of these big players may have been involved in it.
He frowned again at this point: "But there's one thing I haven't figured out: since the murderer knows our whereabouts, why doesn't he wait for us to leave Youtian Town or Zhitian Township before taking action?"
"Yes, if they ambush us in such a hurry and fail, it will expose the fact that they are active nearby." Jiao Yu asked him, "What are you going to do now?"
"Muddy the water first, maybe the big fish will appear on its own." He Lingchuan said to him, "Master Jiao, please find Li Dahu."
"Now?" It's getting dark.
"Yes, now." He Lingchuan affirmed, "This is the effect we want."
Jiao Yu is a man of action, and as expected, he found Li Dahu in less than two quarters of an hour.
Li Dahu was dug out of his sleep. Although he was neatly dressed, he had feces hanging from the corners of his eyes and was yawning continuously. He is fifty-seven this year. Although he takes good care of himself, his energy is far less than that of young people.
The prince's special envoy actually called him to the door all night, and he kept beating in his heart. He kept asking Jiao Yu sideways, if anyone else was going with him?
Who can make such a big deal? Who has truly clean hands?
If all the old things are brought out, then...
He was feeling uneasy when He Lingchuan took out a note and showed it to him with a smile:
"Someone is reporting you."

The next day, the end of Yin time.
The magistrate of Baishi County had just dreamed that he had been promoted to an official position and was holding a tail-burning banquet to be congratulated by everyone. He was ruthlessly awakened by an old servant at home:
"Sir, Li Dahu and Wang Dahu would like to see you."
"Now?" Magistrate Baishi rubbed his eyes and saw that it was not yet dawn outside the window. He couldn't help but get angry, "Are they crazy?"
"They said it was related to some messenger case."
Messenger? The county magistrate sat in bed and was stunned for a long time. He came back to his senses little by little and then remembered the missing case of the messenger in Lingxu City.
From the bottom of his heart, he didn't think that Zhitian Township had anything to do with this case, so he didn't think much about it in the past two days. Why did these two big business owners come to him in such a hurry?
"Let them wait in the study."
Two quarters of an hour later, Li and Wang, two village sages, had finished a cup of tea, and the Baishi County Magistrate arrived belatedly.
