Those Years When I Appraised Treasures At The Pawnshop

Furthermore, Chen Shaojun might even be involved in this.
Constable Ye glanced at Chen Shaojun and did not suspect anything. He quickly asked the next person.
Some people mentioned the scar-faced man, but it was just a normal transaction. No one would think that he was the murderer.
After collecting the evidence, Constable Ye didn’t find anything. Then, he asked casually, “Is everyone in your pawnshop here?”
“There are still the three official pawnbrokers, but they usually come after noon.”
“Oh right, there’s also the kitchen helper. He said that he ate something bad and hasn’t been here for two days.”
Constable Liu naturally didn’t dare to hide anything in front of the official.
“The kitchen helper? Who’s that?”
Constable Ye’s eyes lit up, thinking that he had found some clues.
“He’s Liu’er. However, he’s just a crippled old man. He shouldn’t have anything to do with this, right?”
Shopkeeper Liu explained.
“We can only know whether he was related to the incident after investigating.”
Then, Constable Ye asked for Liu’er’s address and rushed over.
Recently, many incidents had happened in the pawnshop. Thus, Shopkeeper Liu was also worried that there would be more incidents in the future. After warning everyone not to go out for no reason, he left in a hurry.
“Who do you think killed Mr. Shen?”
“Who knows?”
“Perhaps he had provoked some powerful person?”
“No matter what, he’s our pawnshop’s ticketing manager. He has plenty of money. Thus, it’s very normal for strong people to attack him because he’s rich.”
“I heard that Ticketing Manager Shen was originally a poor scholar. He had only entered our pawnshop for a few years, but he had already bought a large house with two entrances and two exits. It is indeed very easy for him to be targeted.”
“Then could he have offended someone?”
“After all, Ticketing Manager Shen is famous for being petty.”
“The slightest mistake from us apprentice pawnbrokers could result in his vengeance.”
“The previous incident that involved Zhang Wang was a lesson to everyone… Perhaps he provoked someone he shouldn’t have provoked and that person got his revenge?”
A group of apprentices gathered together and discussed animatedly.
There were also people who thought of Zhang Wang, who had been infused with a baleful aura a few days ago and whose life and death were currently unknown. They could not help but speak out in grief.
Did they feel sadness or pity?
Not at all.
Shen Lang was usually serious, petty, and vengeful. He also controlled the life and death of the apprentices to a certain extent. Everyone respected and feared him. Although they would not gloat over his death, they would not pity him at all.
“However, why did Lame Liu’er suddenly fall ill?”
“I’m not sure.”
“I haven’t seen him for the past few days and I was still feeling a little apprehensive. I never expected him to be sick.”
“What other reason could there be? Isn’t it because of his dead dog?”
“Its death was so strange. I think it either met an evil spirit or encountered a ghost.”
“Lame Liu’er is stingy and gluttonous, so he definitely couldn’t bear to bury the dog. He probably stewed the dog meat and ate it all. How could he not fall sick?”
“He’s lucky he didn’t die from an illness.”
It was Xu Hongtao who came over and said with a grin.
Although Xu Hongtao’s status was slightly higher than the apprentices and servants, he usually did not put on airs. Furthermore, he had traveled extensively in his early years and was very knowledgeable. Therefore, everyone was also willing to chat with him.
“The dog either met an evil spirit or encountered a ghost?”
“It was broad daylight at that time. How could there be ghosts?”
Some people immediately became curious.
The strangeness of that time made everyone mutter inwardly.
“Why not?”
“The reason why you don’t usually see them is that we are currently in the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.”
“Do you know how many masters and experts there are in the capital?”
“There are many martial saints and Dao lords.”
“With them around, all demons and monsters would naturally retreat.”
“However, this doesn’t mean that there aren’t any demons or ghosts.”
“You should know that when I ventured into the pugilistic world, I went straight into the Ghost Realm. I’ve seen a ghost bridge get married, ghosts carrying a coffin, and a ghost seducing another ghost.”
Xu Hongtao spoke eloquently as he took this opportunity to recount his early years of experience.
At the very least, it would increase their knowledge.
They had nothing to do anyway, so listening to him brag was fine.
Chen Shaojun was also listening by the side and could not resist taking another look at Xu Hongtao.
Who would have thought that Xu Hongtao would be able to see through the reason behind the black dog’s tragic death?
Fortunately, he was careful in his actions. The Substitution technique was a sinister and unpredictable technique that was impossible to guard against. Thus, no one would suspect him.
As for his words about ghosts, Chen Shaojun would listen to them for now.
It would be best if he didn’t meet them. However, if he did, what else could he do?
It would be up to fate.
Right now, Chen Shaojun was more concerned about Shen Lang’s death.
He had always suspected that his death had something to do with the scar-faced man.
Since the scar-faced man had his eyes on Shen Lang, his next target might be Chen Shaojun.
…
On the other side, Constable Ye found Lame Liu’er, who was still bedridden. His body, which was originally a little rosy, seemed to have gone through something and had become as thin as a matchstick.
His eyes had also turned cloudy.
Hope appeared in his eyes when he saw Constable Ye. “Save me…”
“He’s plagued by a baleful illness.”
Constable Ye took a look and turned to leave.
Baleful aura had definitely entered Lame Liu’er’s body. He did not have much time left.
Thus, he naturally could not be Shen Lang’s murderer.
Would Constable Ye save him?
How?
Once a baleful aura entered one’s body, it would be extremely troublesome to deal with. Many skilled physicians would be helpless when faced with this.
He was just a bailiff. Thus, he didn’t want to get involved in this type of trouble.
When he returned to the crime scene, the two entrances of the residence had already been sealed. Meanwhile, a constable in a dark-colored wide robe was squatting down to examine the corpses carefully.
There was more than one corpse.
Shen Lang’s family of five were lying on the ground, covered by pieces of white cloth.
“Head Constable Xing.”
Constable Ye bowed respectfully.
“You’re here. Did you find anything?”
The head constable stood up, and his gaze could not help but deepen.
“No.”
Constable Ye quickly shook his head.
“What do you think while you’re looking at the wounds on these corpses?”
“Do you find them familiar?”
Head Constable Xing continued.
“Familiar?”
Constable Ye was stunned. He quickly thought about it and his expression changed slightly. Then, he said, “Do you mean the massacre half a year ago?”
“But something is wrong.”
“The case was already solved and the murderer was also caught, right?”
“This time, although it is also a murder case, the person who did this is also an expert swordsman. The level of strength that the culprit we caught back then and the person who did this are similar. They are both at the 7th or 8th Stage of the Body Refinement Realm.”
“But just because their level of strength is similar doesn’t mean that they are the same person.” Constable Ye added.
“Who said that the case was solved?” Head Constable Xing said faintly. “It’s just that we weren’t able to find the murderer for a long time. As a result, we have to close the case with a death row criminal to appease the public.”
“Such things are common in a government office…”

“It seems that after half a year, the murderer thought that we have let down our guard and came out to stir up trouble again.”
“However, the problem is that the murderer is obviously very familiar with our method of handling cases and erased many traces that could have been helpful to us.”
“Most importantly, most murderers have a motive for their killings.”
“They either seek wealth or revenge.”
“However, this person attacked twice, but not for money. He probably also had little contact with the people he killed, so it’s hard to determine his motive..”

Everyone also knew that Xu Hongtao liked to brag. This information might not necessarily be from his personal experience, but there should be some basis behind it.At the very least, it would increase their knowledge.
They had nothing to do anyway, so listening to him brag was fine.
