Chapter 796: Who Would You Protect

Xie Qiao thought it would take at least ten days to half a month for the people to investigate the case. That would be considered fast…

“This case is easy to investigate,” Xie Pinggang said straightforwardly. “Fortunately, she used the silver ring powder. Otherwise, it would indeed take some time.

“The silver ring powder is not available locally. Only foreign merchants would bring this medicine or medicinal herbs to make it. Lingnan is far away, and there are not many merchants from there. You can find it by asking around. Moreover, this kind of thing is sold at the black market. If you manage to catch one person from there, you will be able to find the source of the goods. Yesterday, I spent the entire day and searched around. I found a tea merchant, but this kind of big merchant has a family behind them…”

If they followed the clues, they would find even more relevant people.

With more people, the case would develop smoothly.

“Guess which family brought this thing to the capital?” Xie Pinggang still looked mysterious.

Xie Qiao was a little confused. She was a half-immortal, not a living God. How would she know everything?!

“This family has the surname Qi!

“They even gave my stupid brother gifts! A few days ago, someone came to the criminal division and accused the tea merchant named Qi of stealing someone. However, because there was no evidence, they tried to negotiate with the tea merchant several times, but they couldn’t find any clues,” Xie Pinggang said.

“Stealing someone? What does that mean?” Xie Qiao did not understand.

“The person who came to complain wasn’t a local, but a woman from another city. She came to the capital to escape and said that she met the tea merchant of the Qi family on the way. Later, her daughter disappeared. She suspected that it was the tea merchant who did it, so she followed him all the way to the capital and said that she saw the tea merchant send the person to the mansion of the direct branch of the Qi family. Unfortunately, she went to investigate, and the people she sent were all ordinary slaves. They didn’t have her daughter, so the case was difficult to handle…”

When Xie Qiao heard that, her mind was full of thoughts. She thought for a moment and said, “Qi Huai is the direct descendant of the Qi family and has a good relationship with Young Lady Dong.”

“There’s such a thing?” Xie Pinggang raised his eyebrows.

He was going to go back to the Qi family and capture Qi Huai to ask about it.

If he had mentioned the silver ring powder to Dong Xiyun, then perhaps she would have been tempted and sent someone to buy it secretly!

Xie Pinggang hurriedly went back to the cell.

Xie Qiao did not like to go there. There were too many ghouls, so she sat in the side hall.

There were quite a number of people kidnapped today. A few of them were tea merchants’ stewards. They were not punished, but they were anxious and worried.

“We have already told what we know. There were indeed people from the Dong family who came to us, but they really did not buy the silver ring powder. They only bought a few medicinal herbs to enhance beauty and new tea from Lingnan…”

Even if they bought it, they would not dare to tell!

The silver ring powder was an unspeakable thing in the capital. If they said the name of the customer, who would dare to do business with them in the future?

When they returned, they would also be reprimanded by the main family!

“I guess you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin!” Xie Pinggang snorted. “It seems that you’d better question your young master. That kid dares to give gifts to my family. He must know a lot!”

Xie Pinggang had just thought of using Qi Zhen to threaten them.

When he said that, the stewards widened their eyes.

“I can’t torture you guys. After all, I have no evidence. However, it’s different for your young master. That guy has already violated the laws of the country by bribing. I can skin him directly! Of course, on account of his young age, I’ll give him a lighter sentence. It just depends on… whether you choose to protect someone else or him..”
