The Real Thief!
"Having a system is amazing. In just a short period of time, not only did he obtain two divine skills, but he also turned from a weak scholar into a hidden expert.”
Yang Yi was in a good mood after receiving the Newbie Gift Pack.
With martial arts and godly skills, he had the capital to settle down in the Great Song.
In the future, as long as he signed in according to the requirements, he would become stronger and stronger.
"Master, master, someone suddenly beat the drum outside the yamen to complain. Quickly go to the yamen to take a look.”
Yang Yi was planning to find an opportunity to try out his divine skills and martial arts.
A bailiff hurriedly ran in and reported respectfully. He was very afraid of the new county magistrate.
"Someone complained? You go ahead, I'll be there soon.”
Hearing the report from the bailiff, Yang Yi turned around and replied calmly.
He still wanted to experiment with the three divine skills. Since someone had complained, he had to deal with this matter first.
"Yes, sir! Master."
After receiving the order, the bailiff did not dare to look at Yang Yi again. He hurriedly turned around and left.
When he left, the bailiff was extremely shocked.
He did not expect the new master to be so young.
Not only was she young, but she also had delicate features and a talented appearance, which surprised him.
Looking at the back view of the bailiff leaving, Chu Xun tidied his official robe and headed towards the main hall of the county government.
This was the backyard of the county government, so he quickly arrived at the main hall.
"This humble Xing Tong greets County Magistrate Yang.”
Yang Yi appeared in the main hall of the county government office. A burly man in a robe and a long saber at his waist immediately came forward and bowed.
This person was the head of Yanggu County's capital, Xing Tong. He was in charge of investigating all the big and small cases in the county, and was an existence at the bottom of the hierarchy.
"Yes, ascend the hall!"
Yang Yi nodded in response to Xing Tong's goodwill.
Even though the county magistrate was only a seventh-grade official, he really did not care about a small official like the head of the capital.
Becoming a county magistrate was not something that ordinary people could do.
"Ascension! Bring the person who complained."
Xing Tong was a burly man in his thirties. Upon receiving Yang Yi's response, he immediately ordered his men to enter the hall.
In fact, he really wanted to rely on the new county magistrate. After all, in the workplace, he had to get the approval of his superiors.
A high official position could crush a person. To him, Yang Yi was the biggest mountain in Yanggu County.
"Might!"
Upon receiving the order, a group of bailiffs hurriedly ran in with wooden staffs in their hands and stood on both sides.
These people belonged to the class and only worked in the yamen. He was responsible for maintaining order in the yamen and protecting the county officials.
It was fundamentally different from ordinary government laborers who were collecting food, capturing people, and catching thieves.
"Bring the people who beat the drum to complain!"
The two shift attendants stood with solemn expressions on their faces. Xing Tong immediately shouted outside.
Following Yang Yi's order, the Yanggu County government entered a state of trial.
Yang Yi sat behind the table and stared at the door expressionlessly. He seemed very calm.
"Eh? So this was the new Magistrate? He's actually so young."
Hearing the drumming, not only Yang Yi came to the county government.
Some of the citizens who were on the street also came to the entrance of the county government with curiosity, wanting to meet the new county magistrate.
"Being young is secondary. Let me tell you, this new county magistrate is the top scorer of this year's examination. He was personally appointed by the emperor to take over Yanggu County.”
As one of the commoners spoke, a fat man who looked like a gentry reminded him in a low voice.
Hearing this, the onlookers who had come first were shocked. They looked at Yang Yi with admiration.
He was already a county magistrate at such a young age, and his future was limitless.
Yang Yi was unmoved by these discussions.
A moment later, five figures appeared in front of him.
Two of them were bailiffs, while the other three were related to the case.
"Magistrate, I have brought him here!"
When the three of them arrived at the main hall of the county government, Xing Tong hurriedly reported to Chu Xun.
After saying this, he hurriedly retreated to the side, his right hand tightly pressing on the hilt of his sword, constantly watching the movements of the three people.
As long as the three of them made the slightest movement, they would immediately draw their swords and attack.
Yang Yi realized that the relationship between the three people in the hall was somewhat strange.
One of them was an old woman, while the other two were middle-aged men. The three of them hated each other and seemed very unfriendly.
"Bang!"
"Who is complaining? Tell me the reason in detail. If you lie to me, I will punish you with fifty strokes of the cane!”
Yang Yi didn't waste any time and slammed the gavel hard according to the procedure of the trial.
He immediately warned the three of them.
"Might!"
When Yang Yi said this, the bailiff shouted again, and the atmosphere in the hall became even more solemn.
After hearing Yang Yi's words and the dignified shouts of the bailiffs, the three of them hurriedly calmed down.
She looked at Yang Yi curiously, then lowered her head in fear.
"Who was the one who beat the drum to complain? Hurry up and answer the magistrate.”
Xing Tong immediately reminded them loudly when he noticed that the three of them were very nervous.
He had seen this kind of situation many times. Of course, he would not let Yang Yi speak again.
Yang Yi was not in a hurry. Some people might not have entered the yamen in their entire lives, so it was not strange for them to be nervous at this moment.
"Magistrate, you must help me! Last night, I braved the night to travel on the dark road, carrying a bag with me…"
The old woman was startled by Xing Tong's fierce words.
With a perturbed mood, he immediately told her the entire story.
Yang Yi finally understood what was going on.
It turned out that the old woman's bag had been snatched away by someone in the evening.
After being snatched away, she immediately chased after him and begged for help.
A passerby heard the cry for help and immediately chased after the thief and snatched back the bag.
The old woman caught up from behind and saw the two of them fighting. She picked up the bag and hugged it in her arms.
At this moment, the case happened.
Because the old woman's eyesight wasn't good, she couldn't see the person who helped her. Therefore, the two middle-aged men claimed that they were not thieves, so that the old woman could not know who was the thief.
He wanted to minimize the matter, but he thought that the thief was really detestable.
Not only did he bully her because she was old and frail, but he also bullied her because she had poor eyesight.
Therefore, she decided to hurry through the night and let the two of them come to the court to confront each other. She asked the county magistrate to find the thief and bring him to justice.
"Master, I'm innocent! I'm really not a thief. This person is the thief.”
After the old woman finished speaking, a dark-faced man hurriedly stood up to defend himself.
"Nonsense, you're the thief! Magistrate, I am the innocent one, he is the thief!”
After the dark-faced man finished speaking, the bearded middle-aged man also immediately defended himself.
It was difficult to tell the truth for a moment!
After listening to the case, Yang Yi sized up the old woman and then his gaze fell on the two of them.
Noticing that both of them looked nervous, he could not immediately tell who was the Thief.
"Ding! He found the check-in location, Yanggu County.
[Check In Mission: Find the real thief and complete this check in.]
