Chapter 204: Fleeing for Your Life
When Wei Ling and the others did this, the green cloth was still dry. They just needed to find a suitable location and put it at the bottom of the water.
But if people imitate the same thing later, it will be even more difficult.
You can find someone’s location at will, but you can’t let it go. How do you know whether someone’s location is randomly found or carefully selected?
Although the rope tied to the shore can provide them with some help, as long as the rope is tightened, you can find the approximate location of the green cloth.
But as the saying goes, being a thief is guilty, and even a few Wuhou can’t avoid the vulgarity.
Although this is a normal act of performing official duties for them and there is no suspicion of stealing, they are still afraid that Wei Ling will see something strange.
Wei Ling, the Western Market, used his unbearable reputation to shock all the serious Wuhou who was in charge.
They were afraid that they would lose the rice if they were stealing chickens, so they were bitten by Wei Ling.
If it weren't for the fact that Chen Qiguan had been encouraging and urging behind him, maybe they would have stepped back and ran away.
After the Wuhou went into the water, they worked hard and worked hard. Unfortunately, the sky was dark and the pool water was soaked, which was really inconvenient to operate.
After struggling for a long time, I could only achieve 70% or 80% similarity. Fortunately, the water in the pond is also flowing, and the direction of a piece of cloth will not remain unchanged.
After a few people jumped onto the shore, Chen Qiguan took them away. Behind them, streams of water droplets accompanied their steps.
Can they successfully catch Wei Ling, the notorious old fox in Xishi?
…………
The words were divided into two sides. In the dim lights of the West City Bureau, the closed door suddenly opened. The city chief Wei Ling pushed the guard aside with anger and let the officials enter the door.
What's going on?
It's dark, where has the city chief gone?
I've never seen him go out, why did he come back so late?
Several questions lingered in the servant's heart for several times, and the little official who followed Wei Ling also had piles of questions in his heart.
It's just that the problems are different.
"City Chief, can we just let it go?"
Sometimes people's psychology is so strange. Once you are sure to return to safety, you will feel full of strength.
Wei Ling drank two bowls of hot tea in a row and looked at them squintly.
"I'm so embarrassed to mention that who was so scared that he almost dripped his pants?"
Everyone was shocked. Wei Shicheng was too direct in his words.
"We, aren't we afraid of implicating the city chief?" The little official smiled embarrassedly. In order to save face, he had to force himself to continue speaking.
"It sounds nice, forget it, you don't blame me for this. Anyway, the green cloth has not been taken up. Wait a few more days and the time is right, so let's go and do it again."
Wei Ling waved his hand and asked them to retreat. As loyal subordinates, they could not retreat so quickly.
Now is a good time to express your determination. Besides, the few people have returned to the municipal office. According to general operations, Wuhou can't do anything to them.
Not to mention the minor officials who were in charge, even the white people, as long as they were not caught on the spot, Wuhou and the others could do nothing.
"But, will those Wuhou pursue it again in the future? I look at that Chen Qi official, it seems to be very powerful."
Wei Ling threw off his boots and put on the wooden clogs that fit, and finally loosened a little. Just now, he was afraid that Chen Qiguan would regret it, so he ran very fast.
Since he became the city chief, he has not exercised like this for many years. Now that he has sat down safely, he realized that his bones are almost falling apart.
"No, don't worry."
"Besides, even if they want to pursue the matter afterwards, they have no evidence. What can they do to me?"
yes!
They have no evidence!
The dark clouds on his face swept away, and the minor officials finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"The city chief is right. They have no evidence and we did nothing. Just bite to death and don't admit it."
"Yes, you guys remember this, too."
"If anyone asks, we will answer according to what we said on the bridge today. We are going to patrol and there is absolutely no other purpose."
The few people nodded heavily, with a serious attitude. Wei Ling was relieved to see their behavior like this.
These people are indeed a little less courageous, and they are all honest and well-behaved people inside, and they cannot do anything beyond the distance.
But it's okay to tell a lie.
Every time this happens, Wei Ling misses Pei Fanxian in another corner of the West City. If such a thing is encountered by that kid, he will definitely not blush and not beat his heart, and will not even stumble and tell a complete set of lies, and cooperate with him.
Why did he disagree with him going into the water to make money?
"Why did officials Chen Qi and others appear near the bridge? Do you know the news?" Wei Ling suddenly asked, and this question caught everyone present off guard.
"If we knew, we would have reminded the city chief long ago."
Wei Ling nodded: "What he said is right."
At this time, a small official who had not spoken much suddenly stood in the front row and stuttered: "I heard that these Tianwuhous have also arrested a lot of people in the West City, and I don't know what they did."
Wei Ling looked overwhelmed and his tone turned cold in an instant: "There is such a thing, why didn't you say it earlier?"
The little official was also in a dilemma.
"I heard that the Wuhou arrested those people without any punishment. They just gave a few lessons and let them go. They felt that it was not important, so they did not report to the city chief in time."
No punishment?
How is this possible?
Wei Ling fell into deep thought, but asked again: "Did you catch them only after night?"
"Indeed, I heard that in just a few days, the Wuhou people worked very hard to patrol at night and caught dozens of people!"
"I just don't know why they were arrested."
Wei Ling jumped up on the spot and roared: "Since you know someone has been arrested, you still don't ask clearly. If you don't say that for today's matter, you are always working in the municipal office."
"Do you don't care about the big and small things that happened in the West City? Shouldn't you all investigate it clearly!"
The questioning made the officials embarrassed and couldn't even raise their heads. Apart from keeping nodding, they didn't dare to react any other than to nodding.
"Tell me, if I weren't there in this city office, how could I keep going on this day!"
Thinking of these people's incompetence, Wei Ling was filled with emotion.
"The city chief works diligently and has excellent abilities. If it weren't for the sympathetic people, he would have been in the train for a long time!"
"The West City Office must not be without a city chief for a day!"
"From the future, the young people will definitely follow the lead of the city chief!"
Wei Ling didn't say anything. These flatteries were not innovative at all, and they didn't even sound unpleasant, and they couldn't even compare to Pei Fanxian's half.
The clerks seemed to have flattered them on cotton, and they were so soft that they had no effect and could only leave in disappointment.
It is also a blessing for Wei Ling to successfully escape the clutches of Wu Hou today. Although he is confident on the surface, he is not guilty at all.
Fortunately, the minor officials were caught before they even got into the water. If they waited for the copper coins to come ashore and were caught, even if they had eighteen mouths and a lot of words, they would be quibbling.
Why did Chen Qi official appear at that time? I am afraid that he still has no connection with the information provided by the minor official.
From this point of view, those people must have been arrested in Xishi, and maybe they were near the release pond.
But why did these lazy Wuhou stare at that place?
Wei Ling couldn't figure it out. Logically speaking, Wu Hou and the others rarely visited the release pond in the past to inspect, and they all thought the journey here was long.
Could it be that it is because the popularity of the market has been too popular recently and the business has been too hot, which has attracted their attention?
The subordinates reminded me correctly that Chen Qiguan is indeed not an easy task to deal with.
When he left, Chen Qiguan's suspicion did not ease, but he was just letting him go. If he wanted to continue investigating this matter, what would he do?
Wei Ling couldn't help but feel that the inexplicable danger was still hidden in the dark and threatened him at any time.
Dingling bell...
In the dark, a slight sound came from Lao Wei's ears, faintly, but very clear.
It was intermittently and repeated several times.
Old Wei suddenly had a light of inspiration and slapped his desk.
My money!
I won't let them find it!
