"What!?" Hearing such news, Zhao Yu suddenly became furious, "Mom, you are a bitch, these grandsons from Wude Bank are so bold. Do you know that You Dalang is dead and want to keep this money secret?
?”
"Boss, it shouldn't be!" the detective said, "We checked their account books and there is indeed no record of You Dalang!"
"Yes," another echoed, "We have interrogated all the shopkeepers and clerks of the bank separately, and they all proved that You Dalang has indeed never deposited money from them!
"Besides," the person added, "You Dalang died in prison. How could people outside know about it so quickly?"
"Yeah, it's really strange," Zhao Yu touched his head and speculated, "Could it be that... You Dalang didn't deposit the money in Wude Bank at all? Did he deposit it in another bank?"
"But," the policeman replied, "we only have Taketoku Bank in the entire Akiye County. If we don't store it there, where else can we store it?"
"What the hell happened?" Zhao Yu glanced at Xu Zun and said anxiously, "According to the clerk's estimate, the profit of the silk and satin shop is at least several thousand taels of silver. How can such a large amount of money be lost?"
Xu Zun didn't care too much about the deposits, but he was naturally very curious about the whereabouts of the money.
These disappearing deposits further prove that there is something wrong with You Dalang, and make the case more meaningful.
It is conceivable that the whereabouts of this money may be related to the truth of You Dalang's wife murder case.
"Let me ask you!" Zhao Yu grabbed Jia Liu's collar and asked angrily, "Tell me, where did You Dalang keep his money?"
"Wu...Wude Bank!" Jia Liu replied tremblingly, "Every time after collecting the accounts, shopkeeper You always said he went to Wude Bank!"
"What? He said?" Zhao Yu finally realized the problem, "So, you haven't seen it with your own eyes at all?"
"Yes, yes," Jia Liu nodded, "Shopkeeper You always saves money alone and doesn't let us follow him."
"This...sigh!" Zhao Yu smashed his fist in frustration, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked Jia Liu, "Do you know who your shopkeeper You usually has a good relationship with? Who does he often keep in touch with?
?”
Jia Liu thought for a while, shook his head and replied: "On weekdays, except for those customers who buy silk and satin clothes, I don't see any friends from shopkeeper You?"
"Your Majesty, you are a bear!" Zhao Yu cursed angrily again and said to Xu Zun, "Sir, it seems that we can only cast the net and try our luck!"
Zhao Yu's so-called "casting the net" was to ask the detectives to go to the shops and ask people to see if anyone had seen where You Dalang had taken the money.
However, everyone knew in their hearts that since You Dalang concealed the whereabouts of the money from the clerks, he would definitely do it very carefully, and the probability of finding clues was low.
Of course Xu Zun can think of this level, but at this moment, his mind has already thought of a deeper level, and it is an exciting level.
"Captain Zhao," Xu Zun said, "Didn't I say it many times before? Although You Dalang has no close friends, he has many confidants..."
"Oh?" Zhao Yu tasted Xu Zun's meaning and suddenly understood, "Oh... Sir, you mean - Huaxianglou!?"
Xu Zun smiled slightly, which was obviously what he meant.
He has watched many costume detective dramas, and it seems that the protagonists in them all find clues from the land of beautiful women and fireworks!
Since You Dalang is a VIP at Huaxianglou and has so much fun every time, is it possible that he is just trying to deceive others?
Could the whereabouts of his huge savings be related to Huaxianglou?
"Your Excellency is really wise!" Zhao Yu was a shrewd man and immediately understood what Xu Zun meant and said, "I will take someone to investigate now!"
"How about..." Xu Zun said excitedly, "I'll go with you! I have to check them out!"
On the surface, he looks serious, but in his heart, he is already eager to give it a try.
He has long been very curious about this ancient fireworks place, and now that this opportunity is rare, he naturally wants to broaden his horizons.
"This..." However, Zhao Yu coughed, pulled Xu Zun aside, and reminded him in a low voice, "Sir, I think it's better for you not to go!"
"Why?" Xu Zun was surprised.
"Well, although we know that you are going to investigate the case openly, but..." Zhao Yu said, "Miss Shen's side..."
emmm…
Xu Zun suddenly felt like cold water was poured over his head, and he even forgot that he was still the son-in-law.
Zhao Yu was right to remind him, he had just gotten into a lot of trouble, and the scandal with Chun Niang had been spread among the people. It would obviously be wrong to go to Huaxianglou again.
All right!
For his own ideals, Xu Zun had no choice but to endure it and said to Zhao Yu: "In this case, I won't go!"
"Don't worry, sir!" Zhao Yu clasped his fists, "In my humble position, I will investigate thoroughly and never let go of any clues!"
Naturally, Xu Zun wouldn't worry about this. Zhao Yu wanted to find You Dalang's savings more than anyone else.
Thousands of taels of silver, with a little profit, can cover his expenses for several years.
"Okay!" Xu Zun warned, "When you come back, try to explain the details to me as clearly as possible. If you still can't, bring those girls who are in love with You Dalang to the Yamen and let me interrogate them personally!"
"yes!"
After receiving the order, Capt. Zhao immediately took his men to Huaxianglou to investigate.
Xu Zun went around the silk and satin shop and explored it carefully, but still found nothing.
Seeing that it was getting late, he ordered the detectives to guard the silk and satin shop, and then left on his own.
Walking on the avenue of Higurashi in Akiye County again, watching the people passing by on the street and feeling the cool air, Xu Zun couldn't help but feel emotional again.
Will we have to live in this strange world from now on?
Recalling the past life and looking forward to this life with sadness, I have mixed feelings, but I also feel longing for it.
In this way, his desire to live forever became stronger again.
Although he does not have a golden finger, and although he was involved in the whirlpool as soon as he appeared on the stage, he believes that he will be able to solve the predicament and make himself better off.
In fact, now that the case has been investigated, it can be basically concluded that You Dalang killed Chun Niang because of a grudge and conflict with her.
Therefore, Xu Zun just needs to go home and have a good sleep now, and when Capt. Zhao finds out the whereabouts of the deposits, the case will come to an end.
His focus is still on how to marry Miss Shen, a beautiful woman.
However, Xu Zun's keen intuition after many years of undercover work still made Xu Zun unable to let go of the case.
He still felt that there was something fishy about this case, and that some details seemed to have been overlooked.
So, he returned to the prison again without bothering to eat dinner, preparing to examine You Dalang's body with Zuo Zuo.
Unexpectedly, by the time he returned to the prison, Wu Zuo had already completed the examination of the body.
"Master Xu," Wu Zuo is a hairless old man named Wang Shuncai, "I have checked the body of Shopkeeper You. He did hit the wall and died!"
"Nonsense!" Xu Zun asked, pointing to the body lying flat on the autopsy table, "I asked you to come over, not to see if he died after hitting a wall, but to see if it was homicide or suicide?"
"Ah? Well..." Wang Shuncai said tremblingly, "This is really hard to see! I have seen many corpses that died after hitting the wall, but the one like Shopkeeper You who happened to hit the corner was the first one.
Suffer!"
indeed……
Xu Zun thought in his mind that You Dalang's head happened to hit the corner, so it was really difficult to judge whether it was homicide.
At this moment, You Dalang's clothes had been taken off, and Xu Zun saw that there were body spots on his body, and there were also some bruises.
However, these bruises also mean nothing, because You Dalang was beaten by the police when he was taken to the prison, and it is normal for bruises to appear on his body.
However, when Xu Zun took a closer look at You Dalang's body, he suddenly discovered something and his eyes couldn't help but light up!
And the next second, he took another breath of cold air...
