"Oh, I believe you? What do you want me to do to you? You just came here and I lost the stone jade. You didn't take it, who took it? Could it be that he ran away on his own? You can't find a reason.

You have to find a better one."

"Don't be too pushy.

My master said if it was not taken by us, it was not taken by us.

Although we came here this time to borrow your stone jade, your stone jade has disappeared before we even asked.

So none of this has anything to do with us.”

I really can’t stand the flat head.

This city lord is not a good person either.

Flathead frowned tightly. He didn't expect that this operation would be so unlucky. He was framed as a thief before he even got the things.

At this time, he set his sights on Wang Yifeng. After all, Wang Yifeng was experienced. He gave Ping Tou a warning and told him not to act rashly.

"Everything must be based on evidence. Although I disturb your people, I never do anything sneaky. I think there must be a lot of misunderstandings. Why not clarify them all?" The other party snorted coldly: "Misunderstandings, I think this is

It's not a misunderstanding at all. Why did our treasure get lost just after you two arrived? It must have been you two who did it?" If he was really angry, if the master hadn't stopped him, he would have gone up and beat this guy up.

After a meal! "Can you please be reasonable and catch the thief and the stolen goods? The two of us will just stand here and have no time to steal anything? Maybe you are still guarding theft by yourself and framed the two of us.

?" Flathead sneered, and from the very beginning he directed all his hatred towards the other party. They could see that these people were already at odds with each other, and perhaps were suspicious of each other. It would be great if they could provoke internal conflicts among them.

Well, after listening to Ping Tou's words, those people looked at each other in confusion, as if they all had their own thoughts.

At this time, Wang Yifeng said: "Well, you said that I stole your things, and you are not convinced. This is a matter of principle after all. If the things are really lost, then my apprentice and I are willing to find them for you.

Something!”

A man stood up. He had been silent just now and watched everything on the field. He felt that the master and apprentice spoke quite openly, and their expressions were very calm, and they did not look like thieves.

"In that case, the matter is settled like this. If you two thieves find the treasure, I will believe you two!"

This man is extremely smart. He can see that these two people are not simple. The people around him can no longer be trusted. It is better to trust an outsider, at least there will be no partiality or favoritism.

Flathead stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers: "Then it's settled, but I have a request. If we really help you find the person who stole the treasure, you must lend us the treasure!"

It seemed that things were going more smoothly than expected. At this time, Wang Yifeng looked at Pingtou with admiration. He knew that this boy was getting richer and richer in experience, and his response to crisis situations was remarkable.

He not only had his own point of view and settled the situation on the court, but also successfully set a rhythm. Then he made several requests that made the other party embarrassed to refuse.

One of the grumpy people wanted to stand up and go back, but was stopped by the person next to him.

They all know that in this case, the conditions proposed by Ping Tou are indeed the best way, otherwise it will be a tense ending.

"I agree to your request, but there is also a time limit. I will only give you three days. Within three days, you must find the thief who stole the things, otherwise I think you are just playing tricks!"

Flathead snapped his fingers again: "Don't worry, I will never let you find the murderer, but before that, I still need to make a request..." The person standing aside frowned tightly.

The boy is quite courageous. He originally wanted to clear himself of suspicion, but in the end he had to make demands.

"You tell me, as long as your request is not too excessive, I think we can agree..." Pingtou nodded. It seems that the people in this place are not unreasonable, but these people have high power and are used to

Everyone treats him like an ant and will not take a small person like him seriously.

"Since I want to help you find the real murderer who stole the treasure, of course I have to look for clues. How can I make inferences without clues, so I need a free way out of your place, and everyone must cooperate with my investigation. This should

Can you do it?" From the moment this request was made, everyone's expressions became ugly. In their view, being investigated by an unknown person was indeed a very shameful thing.

"Based on this kid's identity, he can't come in and out of here freely. But on the other hand, the conditions proposed by Flathead Suo don't seem to be too much. It seems impossible to ask him to find the real thief and completely restrict his movements?

If everyone is silent, they always feel that this flat-headed man is playing tricks. At this time, there is one person who can't come out. This person is the steward Situ Lei, the most trusted person of the current city lord.

It is said that Situ Lei is extremely smart, otherwise he would not be appreciated by the city lord. He can solve any problem with his own intelligence, and everyone here respects him.

"Tell me first what your name is?" "You can just call me Flathead!"

Situ Lei nodded. He always felt that this boy looked dignified and upright, and seemed to speak openly. He did not seem to be the filthy thief that everyone imagined.

It seems that he is in such a hurry to find a place. The real thief just wants to clear his grievances, and the condition he proposed is indeed not too much.

"Okay, then I will reluctantly keep your request and give you a privilege, but I also have a few requirements. First of all, you can walk around here at will. If you don't touch a very confidential place, no one will stop you. But

During this period of time, someone must monitor your actions throughout the entire process. After all, your mind has not been cleared yet. If you take this opportunity to steal other things, we will be unable to prevent you."

Flathead sneered, this guy didn't believe in him anyway? How could such an open-minded person like him do such petty thefts?

"Okay, I promise you, it's your one-third of an acre of land anyway, you can follow if you want!"

Situ Lei nodded: "As for your second condition, I can also promise you that everyone here will accept your investigation and cooperate with your actions. There is no doubt about this. This is the privilege I give you, but

You must make good use of this privilege, but this date cannot be endless, I need some time."

Otherwise, he will always be aloof. In his opinion, other people are just playing tricks on him. In fact, he just wants to use the crew cut to find the real thief.

And the smart flat-headed brother has long seen that this guy has a lot of hidden secrets in his belly, but the two of them are still in the stage of using each other, so it is difficult to expose it.

"No problem. Didn't I say it before? This matter will definitely not be backlogged endlessly. We still have business to do. We can't waste all our time on this. In three days, say

Three days is three days. If we still can't find the real thief after three days, then I am willing to accept any punishment from you. What do you think?" Situ Lei had a bright smile on his face. Yes, this young man

He really appreciates people and speaks the truth.

"This gentleman has said it all over again. I won't sign any paper agreement with you. How about we just call it a gentleman's agreement?" When Situ Lei said this, several people around him disagreed.

No, they didn't believe Ping Tou. If it was really a verbal agreement, what would happen if Ping Tou didn't admit it? Hearing other people's doubts, Situ Lei waved his hand: "You guys can stop being embarrassed here.

This thing has been hidden so secretly. You still have the nerve to shout loudly here. Go back and do what you need to do. Remember, no one is allowed to delay Pingtou's search for clues to the thief within these three days. And you must

Full support to him!”

The male protagonist put a proud smile on his face and wiped his nose with his hand. This was indeed a good start.

It can be seen that the identity and status of the housekeeper Situ Lei are relatively high in this place, and everyone else has to give way to him. Although the real city lord has not yet appeared in front of others, he has already shown a certain majesty at this time.

At this time, Pingtou took his master Wang Yifeng into the city lord's mansion. The mansion was more magnificent than he imagined, and the decoration was quite good. It seemed that the lord of Jade City was more luxurious than he imagined.

Situ Lei specially sent a subordinate to take care of Pingtou and Wang Yifeng's daily life, and provide them with guidance and answers.

This subordinate didn't look very old, he seemed very patient, and he had a good mind. Flathead patted him on the shoulder. What's your name? How long have you been working here? "Brother Flathead, my name is not enough."

Xi, everyone here calls me Douzi, so you should call me Douzi. I have been working here for two years. The housekeeper treats me quite well and thinks I am reliable, so he transferred me to him!

"

Oh... So the butler named Situ Lei is still a good person with a good mind? Maybe this is the legendary bird of a feather flocking together. You can basically judge the character of the master by looking at the temperament of his subordinates, but Situ Lei's scheming

Hecheng Mansion is too deep, and for a while, I can't see anything fishy.

"Then you will introduce the general situation of this mansion, how to subdivide it specifically, and what kind of people live here?" After all, he has lived in this place for two years, Douzi has no idea about the situation here.

He still knew everything, which was one of the reasons why Situ Lei sent him to Ping Tou.
