Gongsun Ce's house is not bad. Although it is not as good as the mansion of a wealthy family, it is still beyond the reach of ordinary people. The gate faces south, and there is a patio after entering. There are two rooms on each side, and there is a wall outside. This made Bao Qing feel a bit like a smaller version of the Yanjing courtyard house surrounded by walls. Gongsun Ce¡¯s house is a room in the northeast. But when Bao Qing entered the house, he no longer felt how nice Gongsun Ce's house was. There is a bamboo strip bed covered with a long quilt, and a low cabinet on one side. There are only two pieces of furniture in the whole house. Bao Qing frowned and said jokingly: "Looking at your house from the outside, it looks decent, but when you get inside, it's so miserable. You haven't pawned everything in the house, have you?" Gongsun Ce After hearing this, his face suddenly turned red, and then he nodded. "You are so stupid. You lost two thousand dollars. That money is enough for you to become a rich man. Why are you doing this?" "Poverty can stimulate one's ambition. I want to use this method to constantly motivate myself. You must pass the imperial examination." Bao Qing shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about your family's affairs." "What? Are you still interested in solving the case?" Gongsun Ce asked with some confusion. "Haha, Brother Bao is a real Luzhou prosecutor who has cracked many cases. Gongsun Ce, tell me quickly. Maybe Brother Bao can really help you find the culprit." Qin Yuxian said with a smile. "Okay! I said. The thing is like this, just after noon the day before yesterday, after I came back from having a glass of wine outside, I wanted to take a look at my family heirloom secretly hidden under the cabinet and the two thousand dollars. You know, when you move the cabinet and lift up the floor tiles under the cabinet, the exquisite black jade and the money disappear." After Gongsun Ce finished speaking, he moved the cabinet away, revealing half a foot of square tiles. This location is a good place to hide things. If you don't pay attention, it's really hard to find. In addition, if a cabinet is placed on top, even if an ordinary thief looks through the cabinet, it will be difficult for him to discover the mystery behind the bricks under the cabinet. "If there is something hidden in this location, very few people will find it. Have you told anyone about your treasure?" Bao Qing asked. "Of course I can't tell others, but even so, many people still know. When my father brought this treasure back, it attracted a lot of people's attention." "Tell me, what is this exquisite black jade? It's jade "?" Bao Qing asked. "I don't know if it's true. I don't think it looks like jade. It's gray-black and looks like a stone. I only saw it once. Later, my father used a small iron box to put the exquisite black jade in." "As for it? What else do you know? Why is it considered a treasure? "What's the origin?" Bao Qing was a little confused. The so-called treasure should naturally have something special about it. Gongsun Ce paused and said, "What's wrong with people? It should be bad. My father once warned me never to open this box, saying that the stones in this box were ominous stones, stones cursed by the devil. Therefore, I never opened it. Others knew that my Gongsun family had a family heirloom, but I didn¡¯t think so. So I was not sad that the exquisite black jade was gone. What I was sad about was that my two thousand strings were gone. "Most of it was left to me by my parents." "Don't worry about the money, but tell me why the stone is ominous." It will die inexplicably. This is what my father said. It must be cursed. Later, someone heard that it can be suppressed by using an iron box engraved with runes." Bao Qing lowered his head and thought about it. The curse was obviously not true. It's reliable, but this stone is really weird. If according to Gongsun Ce, stones can kill people, this stone should be a stone with extremely strong radiation. If explained in this way, Gongsun Ce's thank you uses an iron box to contain the stone, then it makes sense. This iron box should be used to prevent radiation. It's a pity that no one in Song Dynasty knows this. Bao Qing doesn¡¯t know if his guess is right, and he can¡¯t find the exquisite black jade now. "It's okay if that thing is lost, but it's a pity that the two thousand guan of money is lost. By the way, Gongsun Ce, are you sure that you didn't tell anyone who hid the thing under this floor tile? For example, you drank one day, so-called vomiting after drinking. Zhenyan, who accidentally told you where the money was hidden?" "Probably not. Besides, I don't drink either," Gongsun Ce said. Bao Qing glared at Gongsun Ce seriously and said, "You just said that you went to get a pot of wine the day before yesterday. Didn't you drink it yourself?" "Oh, that wine was for Jia Captou and Wang Capt. Kuai. Not only did I fail the exam twice, but Inspector Wang quickly told me that the government office was looking for temporary clerks and asked me to make a living while earning money to support myself.While continuing to read. But I really didn't want to think about it, but they refused to leave, so I had no choice but to go out and get a bottle of wine and come back. " "You went to get a drink by yourself, but you left Jia Tou and Wang in the house? "Qin Yuxian also felt that something was wrong. Gongsun Ce nodded and said, "I can't help it. I can't let him go in person. Besides, I thought, since my family was so poor, there was nothing to throw away, so I ran out to get a drink by myself. " "and after? " "Later, for some reason, only Jia Captou was left. Jia Captou said that Capt. Wang had something urgent to do and went back first. He said that drinking alone was boring, so he didn't stay. " As soon as Qin Yuxian heard what Gongsun Ce said, he immediately said: "Needless to say, it must be the two of them! " "impossible! After they left, I felt something was wrong, so I immediately closed the door, moved the cabinet away, and opened the floor tiles to check. Everything was there at the time. "Gongsun Ce said with certainty. "Then when did you realize that the thing was gone? "Bao Qing asked. "Well, probably the evening before yesterday, I closed down the calligraphy and painting stall, ate a bowl of noodles, and then went home. But when I opened the door and took a look, I immediately found that the cabinets in the room had been moved. I was shocked and immediately opened the floor tiles to check, only to find that the items had been stolen. Strangely enough, the door lock was still in good condition at the time, and the window was also bolted on the inside. I don¡¯t know how it was stolen. "After hearing this, Bao Qing moved the cabinet away, studied it for a while, and said, "That Capt. Jia and Capt. Wang are indeed suspicious! What kind of interactions do you have with these two people? " "No interaction! Just because we bumped into each other from time to time on the road, it can be regarded as acquaintance. " "Then you went to the Yamen to report the crime? "Bao Qing asked. "Of course I went to the Yamen to report the crime. I immediately locked the door and went to the Yamen to report the crime. Because it was already evening and the sky was getting dark, the policemen were initially reluctant to investigate. In the end, it was the police chief who brought seven or eight people to investigate the case. Gongsun Ce replied. Bao Qing thought for a moment and said, "When Captain Jia came, did you see Captain Wang coming with him?" " "I did see Detective Wang. Before he left, he even said hello to me. "The door lock has not been broken, and there is no sign of damage to the window. Bao Qing carefully inspected the door and window. "It's strange, could things disappear? Oh, it turned out to be a secret room case. There are only a few things in the room, and What can be checked? The last thing Bao Qing checked was the bamboo strip bed. He opened up all the bedding and looked carefully inside and out. "What is this?" "Don't mention it, this seriousness really made Bao Qing discover something. Bao Qing pulled out a small piece of blue cloth from the crack on the back of the bamboo strip bed. "It's a piece of cloth! "Qin Yuxian said seriously. "Nonsense, it was cloth at that time! Bao Qing rolled his eyes at Qin Yuxian. "Look at this cloth, it shouldn't be yours, Gongsun Ce, right?" " "No, my bedding is all blue and white, not blue like this. Moreover, the bedding is not ruined either! " Gongsun Ce checked his bedding. Bao Qing pondered for a while and said: "Maybe it's not the cloth caught in the bed, maybe it's under the bed. Someone passed under the bed, and accidentally, the clothes on his back got caught on the bamboo strips bed. Thus leaving the clothes and fabrics on his body here. " "Sir, what you mean is that someone secretly hid under the student's bed? And the students don¡¯t know it yet? " Gongsun Ce was horrified when he heard this. "It's possible! Let's assume now that I am the thief. I have thought of a way and have been hiding under your bed, trying to find a way to steal something. Originally, I didn't know where your treasure was hidden. But that day you took the baby out to check it out. As a result, I happened to see it, so after I waited for you to leave, I quietly stole the treasure out. "Bao Qing analyzed. "Brother Bao, but you don't know when Gongsun Ce will take out the things to check. Are you going to hide under his bed and wait like this? Qin Yuxian asked. Bao Qing laughed loudly after hearing this: "You are stupid!" I just need to move the cabinet or the furniture in the room randomly. When Gongsun Ce comes back and takes a look, he must have thought he was robbed. What do you think he will do immediately? " "See if something is there? " "By the way, what's the result? Gongsun Ce will obediently expose the place where the treasure is hidden in front of me. Also, I thought, it happened to be evening that day, so maybe the thief had been hiding under the bed in this house. It wasn't until many people came that he slipped out to mingle with the crowd, and then left together. "Bao Qing said. "Ah? Is that so? "Qin Yuxian and Gongsun Ce shouted together. "Who is the most suspect? And this piece of cloth should be from the clothes worn by the police officers." Bao Qing asked. "Brother Bao, what you are saying is that Detective Wang is the thief?" "It should be so, and Capt. Jia is also suspected. Maybe he cooperated with it, otherwise it would be difficult for Detective Wang to blend directly into the police without being discovered. , he must be covering up. If you want to know the truth, just check with Detective Wang." (To be continued.)
