Chapter 37-Investigation! (New book!)
The San Qian family lived in the west of Langya City, which was diagonally opposite to Su Mu's family.
Looking at the dilapidated houses and courtyards around them, most of the people living in the surroundings should be poor families.
Qin's laws were strict.
To be exact, it should be very strict.
Li Si, who was now in power in Great Qin, was from the Legalism school, and everything was about the word 'Legalism.'
Therefore, Qin's laws were very strict.
It was not easy for ordinary people to live, so who would dare to easily violate the laws of Qin?
To barge into someone else's house in broad daylight to kill, this kind of person must have something to rely on.
Sweeping his eyes around, Su Mu already had an idea.
"Tie Ba, take Hu Nu to San Qian Jia and see if there are any traces left behind. Xiao Qi, come with me to investigate the surroundings and ask the surrounding neighbors to see if there are any other abnormalities in San Qian Jia!”
Everyone nodded and began to move.
Iron Guard was a loner and not good with words, so he naturally could not let him scout out the situation.
And the tiger slave's appearance was too frightening, so it was not suitable for him to do such a thing.
So only Su Mu and Little Seven went.
"Dong dong dong!"
Su Mu knocked on the door of a house not far from San Qian's.
" Who is it?" An old voice rang out in the courtyard.
"Hello, old man. I'm a relative of that family over there. I'm here to visit them. I want to ask where their family went. Did you move?"
Su Mu stood outside the door and said.
Squeak ~
The wooden door opened a crack, and an old man with age spots all over his face and a head full of white pulled open the door.
In this era where life was hard, it was a miracle that he could live to this age.
Su Mu quickly took a step back and bowed to the old man in the room.
"Please forgive me for disturbing you.”
Su Mu was very polite. Regardless of whether he could get anything out of it, he still had a glimmer of hope.
The old man looked at Su Mu through the courtyard door, and then looked behind Su Mu.
"Young man, you're not Xiao Er's relative. Xiao Er doesn't have any relatives in his family. I've lived here for decades, so I know this.”The old man in the courtyard looked at Su Mu with a hunched back.
Su Mu had nothing to hide, so he nodded and admitted it.
"Old man, I'm indeed not. I'm his friend. I took the liberty to disturb him because I wanted to know what happened to his family.”
"We served in Liaodong together and have a life-and-death relationship. I can't sit idly by when something happens to his family. If the old man knows anything, please tell me!”
After saying that, Su Mu bowed again.
"Ah!"
The old man sighed, then turned around and pushed open the courtyard door.
"I'm already old, I don't have much time left, so I'm not afraid of those bastards.”As he spoke, the hunchbacked old man walked into the courtyard with trembling steps.
Su Mu quickly followed.
He understood what the old man meant.
The reason why the people around them didn't say what had happened to the Sanqian Family was because the other party had a background. If they said it, they would be afraid of revenge.
After Su Mu entered the courtyard, he stood in front of the door.
The old man leaned against an old well in the courtyard and sat down. Then, he rubbed his waist.
"This old man has received a lot of favors from others. If I don't say it now, I can't bear it.”
The old man sat by the well, shaking his head and sighing.
Su Mu stood at the door and listened carefully.
"Since you are Xiao Er's friend, you should know that Xiao Er has an elder sister. That girl is beautiful, and the people around her want to marry her. However, Xiao Er went to Liaodong to do corvee work to build the Great Wall, and there are only his old parents at home, so Xiao Er's elder sister is not married.”
"Originally, this was nothing much. However, recently, the scoundrels in the city have specially found some good families to attack. Xiao Er's sister has been targeted by them.”
"Fortunately, the waiter came back in time and beat away a few ruffians, but it also attracted more ruffians!”
Su Mu's eyebrows knitted together.
"Old man, are you saying that their entire family has been captured by hoodlums?”Su Mu frowned and asked.
The old man nodded." They are not ordinary ruffians. These people have committed all kinds of crimes in the city and have no regard for the laws of Qin. They must have a backer. Young man, you'd better do what you can. Don't get yourself involved."”
"I don't know much. Those scoundrels are always active in a large mansion in the south of the city when they have nothing to do!”
Su Mu, who was standing in front of the door, took a deep breath and bowed deeply to the old man.
"Thank you for telling me the truth, Elder Su Mu. I guarantee that this matter will not involve you. Please rest assured!”
The old man sitting at the well gently waved his hand." It's alright, it's alright. She's already so old. The waiter still has her sister."
Su Mu turned around and left the old man's courtyard, closing the door.
At this moment, Little Seven, Iron Guards, and Tiger Nu all surrounded him.
"Brother Mu, the other party should have a sharp weapon.”Tie Gao said coldly.
Su Mu nodded, his eyes a little gloomy.
"The matter has been clarified. The person is in a large mansion in the south of the city. It was done by a group of people, so it's not difficult to find him.”
