Chapter 31

There is no way out when the mountains and rivers are at the end of the road, and there is another village with dark willows and flowers.

He Er, who had not read many books, couldn't help but want to recite these two lines of poetry in his heart.

After eliminating Bai Shier's suspicion, He Er, who was cruel in his heart, left Dongsheng Inn early the next morning on the grounds of going out to discuss business and began a search in a net-like manner.

Although Yao Town is not big, it is obvious that it is impossible for He Er to complete the entire population in such a short period of time. So after a day, He Er just roughly looked at the situation of several merchants near Dongsheng Inn. But as for the clues, I think it is not at all.

When the sun sets and He Er returns to Dongsheng Inn again, his body and mind are already extremely tired, but compared to fatigue, what really makes He Er suffer is the deep sense of powerlessness deep in his heart.

During this day, he was very serious and desperate, but the reward was still zero. This made He Er no matter how much he injected himself into blood, he could no longer allow him to continue to maintain his current standard of concentration.

Now He Er feels like he is walking in a cave without a trace of light. He doesn't know the end of the cave, the size of the cave, and even the entrance to the cave can't be found...

But just when He Er felt it was really difficult to persevere, when he returned to the guest room, he never got a torch to illuminate the dark roads by Jiang Ming, a naughty head who was not favored by him.

"Where did you find this thing?" Looking at Jiang Ming getting the brush in front of him, He Er's originally decadent expression became excited in an instant. He took the brush and put it in front of his eyes to look at it. As soon as he opened his mouth, he almost suppressed his tone.

"It's in the donkey shed next to Wang Jinbao's room." Jiang Ming, who just felt that the brush was a little strange, and was found near Wang Jinbao's room. It might be a clue. He was startled by He Er's excited attitude, but then his expression became excited, "Why, this brush is really related to Wang Jinbao?"

"This is Wang Jinbao's thing." He Er looked at the brush twice carefully, nodded and said affirmatively, "Because I gave this pen to Wang Jinbao back then."

"So, this should be the night when Wang Jinbao disappeared. He knew that there was a lot of danger, so he deliberately left it." Jiang Ming looked at the brush in He Er's hand, and his eyes were shining.

"I think it should be," He Er nodded, and the excited expression on his face had disappeared. "It's a pity that this pen is just enough to help us." He Er, who had not discovered anything all day, just felt subconsciously excited just now because he suddenly saw something about Wang Jinbao. But after calming down, he realized in his heart that this pen actually had no effect.

"He Chatou," Jiang Ming was not as pessimistic as He Er. "With your understanding of Wang Jinbao, do you think he would throw this pen that could prove that it belongs to him for no reason?"

"What do you mean?" He Er was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood Jiang Ming's thoughts.

"That's right, I guess there must be bigger clues hidden in the donkey shed. This pen is a secret code. Before something happened, Wang Jinbao might have had a premonition, so he left this backup plan in advance. He knew in his heart that what kind of head would still come to meet him this year, so he left this brush you gave him as a secret code."

"It's very likely." The extinguished flame in He Er's eyes had already been reignited at this time. Jiang Ming's analysis did make some sense in his opinion. For He Er, who had gained zero all day, he would never give up any chance to find clues. "However, we must be careful. It's not yet known whether the murderer behind the scenes is still in Dongsheng Inn. We have to find a way to avoid everyone. Otherwise, if it is accidentally exposed, it will not only waste the clue left by Wang Jinbao, but also put both of us in a very dangerous situation."

"Don't worry, although I'm young, I still know this truth." Jiang Ming knew what He Er was worried about, so he immediately patted his chest and said in a somewhat proud tone, "I went to the donkey shed today because I saw that the inn's servant was too busy. He was worried that he would not be able to serve our donkeys in a hurry, and he had to feed and serve them by himself before entering the donkey shed. In addition to me, there are many guests of their own animals, who also did this, so it would definitely not attract other people's suspicion."

"Okay." He Er's face suddenly showed approval and praised, "It's worthy of being from the capital. He is indeed thorough in doing things. Don't worry, no matter what the final result of Wang Jinbao's affairs will be, when I return to Xin'an County, I will definitely report your contribution to you truthfully and ask for your contribution."

"Thank you for your promotion." Jiang Ming hurriedly bowed to thank you, "Don't worry, I will do my best to search in the donkey shed tomorrow to find the clues left by Wang Jinbao."

"Okay, I'll leave the clues to you." He Er nodded, "But you don't have to worry too much. Then I will cover you."

"Where is any help from the boss, the younger one will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort." Jiang Ming hurriedly praised.

...

He Er and Jiang Ming fell asleep with some excitement and expectation, waiting to obtain the clues left by Wang Jinbao the next day, and then followed the clues to find the real murderer behind Wang Jinbao's disappearance, reported to the provincial government, or even the capital, and retaliated for all their efforts to promote the power of the East Factory again. Of course, whether they can make great contributions with this is insignificant. As long as the Shangguan above can remember the names of their two, it will be a great blessing for them.

But what the two of them didn't know was that in their eyes, the brush like a torch in the dark was not stingy. Except that it did belong to Wang Jinbao, it had no relationship with Wang Jinbao in other aspects.

That was just the bait that Bai Shier deliberately sprinkled to them after confirming that they were the spys who came to Dongchang to connect with Wang Jinbao.

The reason why Bai Shier thought of using the donkey shed and brushes was because he felt that he had been a little too tired these two days.

Even if Jiang Ming did not scold Bai Shier with "smart" and used the excuse that Bai Shier would neglect to serve the animals well in a busy and took the opportunity to run into the donkey shed by himself, Bai Shier would make him "think of" this excuse soon.
