Chapter 409 Déjà vu?

The moment she suddenly realized, the case was closed in her heart.

Because of inexplicable jealousy, Princess Huaizhen sold a maidservant, and that maidservant held a grudge, and when she arrived at the brothel, she spread the things she knew everywhere, which led to her present catastrophe.

At this moment, Xie Yuan felt very tired, and she really didn't want to care about it.

Princess Huaizhen's gossip story has led to a bunch of gossip stories, and now she still wants to investigate the source of this gossip story, really...does one have nothing else to do while alive?

Xie Yuan gritted his teeth, let out a sigh of relief with his eyes closed, calmed down his inner resentment, and asked in a deep voice:
"Where's that Huayan?"

The madam quickly said: "...A few days ago, a merchant named Shui bought her body and bought it. I heard that she has left the capital and lived in another place."

Xie Yuan's eyes flickered, and he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember what was wrong.

At this moment, Sun Tian from the outside came back with someone. They were the third way to arrest people, and they went to Sifang Casino.

As soon as he came in, he walked up to Xie Yuan and reported:

"General, most of the people have been arrested, but... there seems to be something wrong with the shopkeeper of the gambling shop. When we went to arrest him, he was very good at martial arts, and he fought desperately to resist arrest, and escaped."

As he spoke, he stretched out his fingers and wiped a small cut on his forehead, and said to Xiao Erdan:
"Thanks to your crow's mouth, it saved my life."

"My mother, I'm talking nonsense!" Xiao Erdan said in shock.

Xie Yuan frowned, and looked solemnly at Si Yu who was kneeling.

Si Yu smiled obsequiously at Xie Yuan, but she didn't show anything on her face, but she cursed in her heart:
Damn it, the owner of the gambling shop must also be a spy of Wei Guobu, but he couldn't hold back, he was afraid of death and ran away!

It was a good scapegoat and a good situation, but now, all previous efforts have been wasted!
Xie Yuan looked away from Si Yu's face, looked at the confused old bustard again, and asked Sun Tian:

"Have you ever told the shopkeeper of the gambling house that you came here just to cooperate with the investigation and ask some questions, not a conviction."

Sun Tian pointed to the small cut on his head and said:
"As soon as I entered, I was attacked by him. Then after a few moves, we couldn't tell the difference, so I told him these words. He hesitated and agreed to go with us, but Put on some clothes.

I saw that he was wearing very thin clothes, and I needed to add another one, so I agreed, but he turned around and ran away from the secret passage..."

After hearing this, Zhang Qing came out from the side and said:

"General... There must be something wrong with this person. Ordinary people, who would open a secret passage in their own home? What's more, he is the shopkeeper of a gambling shop, operating legally. Is there someone else chasing him?"

Xie Yuan also felt that this person's reaction was a little too much.

Although this case is said to have a dangerous element, and there is a risk of decapitation if caught, but for ordinary people, it is a risk after all.

If he is not guilty, why is he running?Leaving a family home is not an easy decision for ordinary people.

Unless he concluded that after he was caught, he would definitely die.

Then... If this is the case, the reason that she thought it was simply a betrayed little maidservant's outspokenness was ruled out?

With a headache, Xie Yuan touched his brow with his slender fingers, and asked Zhang Qing:
"Then in this situation, what should we do next? Now the two people who are showing signs, that Huayan has escaped, and the shopkeeper of the gambling house has also escaped. Issue the sea arrest document? Wait until someone catches it?"

Zhang Qing said:

"Arresting people is one thing. At the same time, you can also carefully investigate Huayan's interpersonal relationships, as well as the interpersonal relationships of the gambling shop owner. As long as they are premeditated, they can always find some clues."

Xie Yuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll leave these to you, and I'll sort them out later, just show me."

"Yes." Zhang Qing said with a smile, his expression was very relaxed. It was obvious that he was very happy to work under Xie Yuan's hands.

He felt that although this man had high martial arts skills and was young, he was not frivolous.

On the contrary, this person is very aware of his strengths and weaknesses, and is much more mature than his peers.

When Zhang Qing turned his head, his eyes glanced at Ma Shuo who was sitting on the other side, and he rolled his eyes unconsciously.

I thought to myself: That guy, if General Youjie hadn’t been pressing him down, he wouldn’t dare to act recklessly for fear of being beaten, maybe he would be so mad.

"General Xie, what about us? What shall we do?" The old bustard asked pitifully, "There is nothing for us, can we go back?"

Xie Yuan glanced at them, and then looked at Zhang Qing with a questioning look. Zhang Qing closed his eyes and bowed, which meant that it was at your disposal.

Xie Yuan then said to the bustard:
"You can go back first, but you have to ask questions later, don't run around, and don't lose one more person. At this juncture, if anyone runs away, it means that someone has a ghost in their hearts."

As she spoke, she scanned the crowd with sharp eyes, which made people feel flustered.

"Okay, good, good..." The always eloquent old bustard could only speak this word stammeringly.

Then, while observing Xie Yuan's face, he carefully led the person back.

Later, they asked a waiter in a teahouse.

The guy cried and cried for injustice, and said:

"I just like to sing a song when I boil water and make tea. I have had this problem for many years, and the regular visitors to the building know it.

I just thought the rhythm of that song was nice, so I sang it for two days without realizing it... God pity, most of the time, I don't sing the lyrics, I just hum... My son-in-law, you can't just because I love you Sing, kill me! ...Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

Xie Yuan flipped through the summary article about him, put his hand on his forehead, and asked:
"Tell me, you heard about this song from a guest drinking tea. What does he look like?"

The fellow cried and said:

"That man looks strange, the first time he came here, he looked like a merchant. Then he came just once, in his thirties, with short stubble..."

"What else?" Xie Yuan asked.

The guy cried even worse, and said: "I see so many people every day, an ordinary person I only met once, how can I remember his appearance! You don't think I made it up... My dear mother, Now I can't explain clearly wow, woo woo woo..."

Xie Yuan couldn't bear to cry and make trouble like this, it disturbed people.Furthermore, after having a clue, the suspicion of this guy is really nothing.

So after discussing with Zhang Qing, he was released.

And when Huayan's interpersonal relationship was presented, Xie Yuan looked at the name of the businessman surnamed Shui, and suddenly froze...

It seems...deja vu?
