Chapter 402 Young Master

Gu Mingda and Jingzhao Fuyin frowned at the same time.

They asked together again, but the guy couldn't tell what the other person looked like for a while.

He sells goods in the store every day, and there are too many customers coming and going. Although he can recognize people when they come and walk in front of him, but when it comes to describing the person's appearance, it seems that the only thing in his mind is " Four words: "Ordinary".

"What kind of eyes? Are they almond eyes or pink and squinty eyes?" Gu Mingda asked.

When the boy heard this, he scratched the back of his head anxiously: "I...I can't tell..."

"What about the lips? What about the nose? A flat nose or a high nose? Or an ordinary nose?" Gu Mingda asked again.

The boy shook his head: "I didn't pay attention..."

"How many moles are there on the face? Are there any special scars on the body? Are there calluses on the palms?" Gu Mingda has given up hope.

The boy suddenly said: "Calls! There are indeed calluses! There are calluses in the mouth of both hands!"

Because every time I came to buy candy, the candy was delivered to the palm of the person's hand, so the little boy could clearly tell about the calluses on the tiger's mouth.

Gu Mingda nodded, turned to Jingzhao Prefecture Yin and said: "It should be this person. Although his appearance is still unclear, he is about the same height. There are calluses on the tiger's mouth of both hands. He is probably a martial arts practitioner, or even It's possible that it was a two-handed weapon."

Jingzhao Prefecture Yin was stunned and asked: "Height? What height? Where do they match up?"

The boy said before that the people who often come to buy cakes are short in stature.

Gu Mingda said: "The wound on Master Lu's neck was cut from bottom to top. The man should be shorter than Mr. Lu. Based on past experience, I judge that the man should be this tall."

Gu Mingda stretched out his hand and made a gesture on Jingzhao Fuyin's neck.

Gu Mingda's original intention was to show the height of the murderer, but Jingzhao Prefecture Yin was so frightened that he took a step back.

Jingzhao Fuyin seemed to realize that his behavior seemed a bit embarrassing. He immediately made up for himself: "If it is really an acquaintance who committed the crime, and the attack was sudden from below, it would be really difficult to guard against it."

Gu Mingda also wanted to save face for the governor of Jingzhao. He frowned and said: "Now it has been confirmed that this person likes to buy ginger candies at Baiweifang. I just want to confirm where the other person lives and who he is. I'm afraid there will be more. A lot of hard work.”

Only then did the governor of Jingzhao realize the difficulty of this matter, and said with emotion: "The capital is so crowded, how can we find someone so easily, and we don't even know if this person has left the capital."

"He works quickly and leaves almost no clues at the scene. Judging from his martial arts skills, the master behind him may value him very much and will not leave the capital easily. But for the sake of caution, please send people to the four gates to conduct a careful investigation." People leaving the city," Gu Mingda said.

The governor of Jingzhao nodded and said: "I will send people to guard the four city gates to ensure that no one who is short and has limited mobility will be allowed to leave."

Speaking of these words, it seemed as if they had the entire capital in their hands, but in fact both of them knew that the city gate was not the only way to leave the capital.

What's more, even the city gate may not be able to stop everyone. After all, there are so many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital, so how dare the officials rush into them at will.

"Sir Gu, even if we are to interrogate people who have left the city, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop them for too long." The governor of Jingzhao hinted to Gu Mingda to catch the real culprit as soon as possible.

At this time, Gu Mingda only felt that he was in a deadlock.

Niuniu suddenly said to the little boy: "I'll buy a pack of ginger sugar balls!"

The young man also knew that these people were noble people, and he did not dare to look down upon even a little girl. After getting the nod from his shopkeeper, he took out a pack of ginger candies and handed them to the little girl, and said with a smile: "Little girl, why don't you Calling ginger candy "ginger candy balls" is exactly the same as what the criminal who bought the candy said."

Niuniu handed over a piece of silver from her purse and said, "Some people over there talk like this. When they call "candy", they always mean "candy balls."

The young man did not accept the money and said casually: "Is that the murderer still a fellow countryman of yours?"

This sentence made Gu Mingda raise his eyebrows. He changed his accent and said, "Does that person speak with an accent like this?"

The boy was full of surprise and nodded: "That man usually speaks in Mandarin, but he only spoke like this once."

Gu Mingda only felt that there was another clue.

On the other hand, Jingzhao Prefecture Yin on the side said casually: "Even if we know that this man is from your hometown, how can we find him? Even the clerk said it. He speaks good Mandarin. In the huge sea of ​​people, I'm afraid it won't be possible." Easy to find.”

Niuniu pressed the piece of silver into the little boy's hand and said, "You have to give money when you buy things. My family has taught me this!"

When she said this, it made Jingzhao Prefecture Yin, who had always been asking for cards, a little embarrassed.

Gu Mingda was vaguely aware of some clues, but he just didn't know where to start.

After Niuniu forced her to give the money, she asked again: "Which workshop is your young master's house in? I'm going to see him later!"

The young man said: "Young lady, it's a coincidence that you came here. Our young master said he would come over in the morning, so he will probably come soon."

Niu Niu turned her head and looked at Gu Mingda expectantly.

"Dad, can I talk to the young master? I want to play with him?" the little girl said.

Gu Mingda also understood what his daughter was thinking. It was rare to meet someone who was good at making ginger candy, so she became curious.

Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly had an idea and asked, "Does your young master have any dealings with the murderer?"

Before the young man spoke, the shopkeeper of the head office immediately said, "Sir, this is not a good thing to say. My young master has always liked to make things. He is kind and will never have any dealings with the murderer!"

On the other hand, a strange color flashed in the eyes of the young man next to him.

Niuniu said, "But if I really like ginger candy, I would really like to know the maker of ginger candy."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the Jingzhao prefecture governor lit up, and he immediately showed his authority to the group of people: "Tell me! Does your young master have any dealings with the murderer?"

Several people in the store didn't know what to say for a while.

"What murderer?" A young man's voice came from behind the crowd.

A young man in green clothes, handsome face, who looked only seventeen or eighteen years old, walked in.

"Young master!" the shopkeeper of the head office shouted.

Gu Mingda explained the incident clearly and concisely.

After listening to it, the young man frowned and said, "Murder? Brother Wu just likes to eat ginger candy, he doesn't seem like someone who would do such a thing."

Gu Mingda immediately understood that the two men did have contact, and before he could speak, the prefect of Jingzhao said loudly.

"Do you want to hear the murderer hide something? Do you have any clues? Do you know where he lives? Where is he going? Tell the truth!"
