Chapter 296 Crispy Roasted Pork Belly (7)

  Ji Caimai's rumors were quickly confirmed!

  The remaining corpses were found together, and they were completely pieced together into a complete corpse.

  According to what Wu Bucai said, the man must have died two days ago. Although the appearance of the corpse has changed a little, but due to the cold weather, the change is not as fast as in summer. After cleaning up the turbidity on the face, people can still recognize the dead at a glance.

"The deceased's surname was Feng, and he was one of the city magistrates in charge of this market. His age and so on all matched the conclusions drawn by Wu Bu." A month ago, he was a small laborer helping to carry goods at the wharf by the Weishui River, and he has only been appointed as a city order not long ago."

Lin Fei raised his hand when he heard this, and asked, "What's the matter with the old and new scratches on this Feng's hand? It's just that three months is not long, and he doesn't have to go to the dock after the listing order Carrying the goods, where did he get the scratch?

   About this, the guard has already asked me.

"This Feng Shiling disappeared five days ago. Before he disappeared, he was moving," said the guard. There are many left behind."

  Lin Fei nodded, and asked the guard: "Where is Feng Shiling's new home?"

"Lin'an Hutong." The guard spoke up to this point, and before Lin Fei could continue to ask questions, he said the rest of the sentence, "There are a lot of shopkeepers living in that area, which is better than where he used to live. Quite a few."

Although he hadn't visited Lin'an Hutong yet, after hearing the guards mention who lived in this Lin'an Hutong, Lin Fei immediately understood: "How did he transform from a small worker who has been handling goods at the wharf for many years?" Let's not mention the market orders..."

When the guard heard this, his face was also very strange, and he nodded subconsciously: Although this market order is not an official, it is indeed a tiptoe worker for a dock worker who works hard to carry goods and sleeps in the open. The beauty is too bad. This kind of good job is something that everyone is vying for among the dock workers, so although it is not an official, it is not an easy task to become a market order. "No. 1 scholar" is not a market order.

  This city order is quite strange, but right now, there is no time to investigate it in the future.

  Of course Lin Fei knew that this matter needed to be investigated carefully, so he did not continue to ask this question, but brought up another matter.

"It means that you have become a city order, but after being a city order for three months, you can live in a house in Lin'an Hutong?" Lin Fei shook his head and said, "Not to mention buying it, it is renting it. As far as I know, renting a house in Chang'an City usually requires deposits ranging from three months to half a year, or a year's rent, how can the money obtained in the three-month market order be enough for the rent deposit?"

   The guard shook his head, and said frankly: "I don't know where Feng Shiling got the money, but in the past three months, Feng's surname has indeed been a little... er, a little ostentatious, and attracted a lot of attention at the market."

As for how to attract attention, the guard said with a strange expression: "Probably because he has been working as a small worker for many years, and he has accumulated resentment, so that he can't get used to his situation being better than the old one, and deliberately finds fault or something. ..."

  Finding faults is not limited to those who are in a better situation than him, and Feng Shiling is also picky and contemptuous of those who are in a worse situation.

"For those who are miserable, they just disdain and look down on them. The daily words of 'lowly' and 'lowly' are endless." When the guard said this, he shook his head and said, "After stepping on the high and then stepping on the low, yes Therefore, Feng Shiling's popularity in the market is very bad, and I searched around, but I couldn't find anyone who likes Feng Shiling."

  Hearing this, Liu Yuan came to a realization: "So... this Feng is a villain who has gained power for no reason."

   The guard nodded, and said: "What the listeners said is true. Before Feng Shiling disappeared, every time they saw him coming, the people in the market would say in private, 'the Hades surnamed Feng is here again'!"

   Such a person is really unpleasant, Liu Yuan thought for a while, and then asked: "Then the person he offended..."

   "There are quite a few." The guard continued, "Most of the stalls in this market have had direct conflicts with him, but if they didn't have direct conflicts, there were also quite a few who complained and abused him in private."

   This means that the offended people have offended too many people, and the enemies are all over the market, so it's really hard to check.

  Liu Yuan was sighing, when he heard Bai Zhu's voice: "Where's that Hu Siming? Have you ever had a conflict with him?"

  An important suspect, Hu Siming, was still being held in the prison at this time.

  The guard nodded and said, "Just as I was about to talk about this, the two had a conflict."

"He was one of the people who made a fuss about exchanging chickens, ducks, poultry and livestock," said the guard. "He took a chicken and jumped in line to slaughter it, and the people who had been waiting all morning complained, 'The city order took the lead in jumping in line. Not good', Hu Siming helped regular customers and said something like 'jumping in line is not good' when he saw this. Of course, because he is a market order, no vendor in the market dared to offend the market order, and Hu Siming was no exception. He still slaughtered the chicken for him, but he thought Hu Siming was quick and suspected that he had replaced the chicken, and finally poured out the slop bucket before giving up!"

  Hearing this, Liu Yuan couldn't help shaking his head, and sighed: "He's really a villain!"

   Isn't it? The guard coughed lightly, and said: "Anyway, everyone hates dogs, so he didn't come, and everyone thought he was sick, but no one wanted to visit him."

   This person is not a good guy, who would go to see him on purpose? Is it itching to be ridiculed?

  Lin Fei nodded when he heard this, and said, "Let Wu Bucai find out the specific cause of death. Let's go to Lin'an Hutong to have a look."

  Lin'an Hutong is just one of the alleys where many people gather in the north of the city. Because shopkeepers "gather", there are many shopkeepers who come and go to buy and deliver goods. People come and go in the alley, noisy and lively.

Seeing that Lin Fei came to the entrance of the alley, he stopped and looked into the alley. The guard hurriedly said, "Lin Shaoqing, there are many people going in and out of this alley every day, and it's very chaotic. Feng Shiling just moved here again." Yes, he didn't buy some cakes and pastries to distribute as a 'housewarming gift' like some people do, so if the neighbors didn't see him moving things in and out, they wouldn't know that the house was rented out. What's the point of making friends with neighbors? Yes, this Feng has never done it, so he has been missing for several days, and no one knows about the same reporter."

  Lin Fei nodded, and looked at the house at the end of the alley where a few servants stood in front of the door: Although there was no housewarming ceremony or anything, there was a red banner on the door of the house—Tunjinnabao.

  I don’t know if this house can swallow Jinbao, but as far as this city magistrate named Feng Tong is concerned, this house can swallow people.
