907 Strange
The stolen warehouse is easier to investigate than Zhu Wuyang imagined. After eliminating the option of demons and ghosts, Hao Jiyong quickly discovered an abnormality through effective tracking and investigation.
At the old blacksmith in Tongxin Town, Hao Jiyong got his wish without getting clues about key matching. According to the old blacksmith, no one asked him to match the keys of Chaoyun Warehouse a few months ago.
As a warehouse in Chaoyuntianzhuang, the door locks in the warehouse are specially made and the keys are also specially made, so if someone comes to prepare them, the old blacksmith will definitely have an impression.
But the old blacksmith had no impression here, and it can be seen that he did not steal Hao Jiyong's key to get a new key a few months ago.
In the entire Tongxin Town, except for the old blacksmith, there is no second place to get keys. Unless you go to another town dozens of miles away, it will take more than a hundred miles a day, and there will be dangers on the way.
That night, Hao Jiyong had only been drunk for a few hours. The few guards who drank with him were only forging the first and second floors outside, and they did not have that powerful strength.
In this case, is it that the warehouse theft was not artificial, or something else is strange?
Hao Jiyong continued to investigate, and then found that one of the guards who were drinking with him had abnormalities. The man was named Bai Qiang. A few days ago, he lost his wife, children and house while gambling in Tongxin Town, and even owed a lot of money.
During this period of time, the casino has been collecting debts and almost forced him to death. If he hadn't been the guard of Chaoyuntianzhuang, the other party would have chopped him up and fed him to the dog.
Even so, Bai Qiang has been living a miserable period, but in recent days when he was being collected from debt, he often told the casino that he would soon have money and asked them to give him a while.
This made Hao Jiyong feel strange. After all, everyone knows what Bai Qiang looks like and can't afford such a large gambling debt, but he said so, is it related to the theft of the warehouse?
Hao Jiyong focused on Bai Qiang, and soon discovered clues. Bai Qiang was indeed not at the house of several friends he often stayed at the night that Bai Qiang was stolen in the warehouse, and his whereabouts were a bit mysterious.
After discovering this, Hao Jiyong took action decisively and arrested Bai Qiang with his guards. After some intimidation and coercion, he successfully poached the truth of the matter from Bai Qiang.
It turned out that a few months ago, Bai Qiang did take advantage of Hao Jiyong's idea of killing the warehouse keys, and took the key away and wanted to configure it. He wanted to go to the warehouse occasionally to get some food and subsidize the household income.
But later, thinking that the traces of doing this are too heavy, Bai Qiang did not do this. Instead, he asked Hao Jiyong where he usually put the keys when he was drunk.
After getting drunk, Hao Jiyong did not have much precautions. Bai Qiang used a trick to ask about the hidden place where he usually puts the keys.
In the following months, Bai Qiang occasionally took away the keys at night and took some food and vegetables from the warehouse. Because of the small amount, Hao Jiyong did not notice the abnormality.
Because he no longer had to buy food and vegetables, Bai Qiang gradually became more generous and became addicted to gambling.
It was okay at the beginning, but as time went by, Bai Qiang's addiction to gambling became stronger and stronger. In the end, he caused a big mess half a month ago, not only did he lose his wife and children, but he even lost his own family.
Not only that, Bai Qiang also owed a lot of money in the casino.
Faced with the casino's debt collection, Bai Qiang, who was desperate, made up his mind to the warehouse of Chaoyuntianzhuang.
Because of many experiences and skills before, Bai Qiang successfully stole a large number of the most precious medicinal materials in the warehouse, which was worth enough to pay the gambling debts, and Bai Qiang also wiped out all traces.
Because it entered through the main entrance, there were naturally no traces left around it, which made Hao Jiyong mistakenly think that it was a demon and monster.
Bai Qiang has not been sold yet. After all, they have just been purchased. They have to find a good buyer, and they cannot be discovered by Chaoyuntianzhuang.
Bai Qiang didn't expect that he would be found out if he had less than a day. In panic, he naturally said it like a bamboo tube poured beans.
Upon learning about the situation, Zhu Wuyang waved his hand and asked Hao Jiyong to send him to the government, but did not kill him directly. After all, doing so would violate the criminal law of Xia Kingdom.
There are very few death sentences in Xia Kingdom. Any prisoner who commits a serious crime will basically be sent to serve his sentence. After all, the number of human races is limited, and there are enough human races killed by demons and monsters, so it is better to kill less by yourself.
Therefore, for those mortals who committed death crimes, most of the Xia State governments would send them to some closed mines and let them dig until they die, which would be considered as doing their last part for the human race.
Of course, there are also those who choose to go to the front line to confront monsters and monsters. Generally speaking, these people die faster, and few persist for more than a year.
Most death row prisoners still choose to go to the mine to serve. They can live longer when they die of exhaustion. It is much more comfortable than being eaten by monsters and monsters.
Of course, if you perform well on the front line, you will still have the opportunity to reduce your crimes and even gain freedom. Of course, there are fewer such prisoners, and most of them will still be unable to escape the word "death".
Bai Qiang's experience is hateful and annoying. Before leaving, he cried and said that if Hao Jiyong and Chaoyun Tianzhuang had not given him the chance, he would not have become addicted to drugs and eventually embarked on this path of no return.
Not only did my wife and children be gone, but I would also spend my whole life in hard labor. After all, the amount of medicinal materials obtained by the white bandits angered the Lin family of the imperial merchants, and once they were in service, it would be difficult to come back.
But after all, Bai Qiang is too poor in his willpower, without the forced or temptation of demons and monsters, he became addicted to gambling and embarked on such a path of no return. His originally good family and life were destroyed like this.
After the incident came out, the whole Chaoyun Tianzhuang was cleared, and news about Zhu Wuyang solving the case in one day spread, which made many people who looked down on him change their minds.
This incident was also reported to the Lin family in the imperial capital by Pan Yufeng, the butler of the countryside. After receiving the news, the Lin family also gave Zhu Wuyang some magic medicines to enhance physical fitness.
Some senior executives of the Lin family also reduced their opinions on Zhu Wuyang, but Zhu Wuyang did not take this seriously. For him, this matter was not even a small episode. Regardless of whether Bai Qiang was caught or whether the medicinal materials were recovered, it was not worthwhile to waste time in this regard.
