Chapter 9: Thief

The boy blinked, feeling a little unbelievable, then his face collapsed and he looked at Zhou Ze with heartache.

"I am the three treasures. It doesn't matter if my son doesn't remember me. I will take good care of my son in the future."

Xu Gongzhu knocked Sanbao's chest with a scabbard, and he couldn't move for a moment.

The three treasures are anxious.

"Who are you? What are you going to do?"

"Are you a servant of the Zhou family? Why haven't you been in the mansion before?"

"I am the young master's book boy. After the last exam on August 14th, the young master went home to take care of his mother's funeral. When I came back three days ago, I found that the mansion was sealed. I found out that everyone in the mansion was killed and the young master was imprisoned.

I was frightened at that time and didn't know what to do. I wanted to go to Tianzhu to see the young master, but I couldn't get in. In the past two days, I saw someone open the courtyard and wash it up, and I also sent a lot of tablets in. I guess the young master's injustice was revealed, so..."

Xu Gongzhu looked at Zhou Ze, wondering why he didn't recognize this book boy.

"You don't remember him?"

Zhou Ze nodded.

"I also asked the bad coach to help me check in the county government. I don't know what happened. I can't even remember the previous incident, and I don't even remember the images of my father and mother."

Xu Gongzhu didn't ask, whistled, and Zhao Hu appeared for a moment.

"Go and check, this person is called Sanbao. Whether he is Zhou Ze's Shutong? There are records in the county government office, and whether the neighbors know him."

After agreeing, Zhao Hu turned around and left, Sanbao's face calm and composed.

Zhou Ze was a little confused. It was a coincidence that he went home on August 14 to handle the funeral.

But looking at Sanbao's appearance, it was useless to do anything with this body. The doubts in his heart were suppressed, and he probably thought too much.

After waiting for a while, Zhao Hu came back, whispered a few words to withdraw, and Xu Gongzhu smiled at Zhou Ze.

"Don't think too much. This person is your book boy, your Zhou family's son, and your neighbors recognize it. Just pretend that the case has not happened before. If you pursue it, it will only add to your worries."

Zhou Ze knew that this was the meaning of the saint, and he didn't want to pursue it too much.

"Thank you, bad handsome, for your help!"

Xu Gongzhu waved her hand, as if she wanted to say something and swallowed it back, and finally sighed.

"I'll say goodbye first. I heard that you have participated in the imperial examination. The next day, the results will be released on the fifth day of September. Let your book boy go and see it. If you are on the imperial examination, it will also be a comfort to your father."

Zhou Ze smiled. He was really not interested in the release of the results. What are the benefits of being a civil servant in such a world?

"Title on the Golden List? Forget it, I don't remember anything, so what can I do if I get on the list?"

Xu Gongzhu seemed not surprised at all about Zhou Ze's words, and he exchanged greetings and said goodbye directly.

After seeing Xu Gongzhu off, Zhou Ze returned to the yard. Sanbao had already taken time to wash his face. He looked at a pretty clean boy. He probably had deliberately dirty his face in order to cover up his eyes and ears.

At this moment, rubbing hands, hesitating, as if there was something to say.

"Speak straight away if you have something to do."

"Young master is almost noon. Are you hungry?"

At the same time, Sanbao's stomach rumbling twice in cooperation.

"You're hungry, you're ready to eat!"

The face of Sanbao suddenly collapsed, which was even worse than crying.

"Young master, I can only serve your daily life and study. I can't cook. I just went to the backyard to see it. There were only some cooking utensils and tableware left in the kitchen, and there was no food. This house is like being robbed, and there are too many things missing!"

Zhou Ze put his fingers on his lips and made a sound ban.

"There are ears in the partition walls. The whole family was killed. What can the things inside be left behind? Forget it, I'm too lazy to move. Go and buy some food and come back."

As he said that, he took out a piece of the smallest piece of silver and handed it to Sanbao.

"Young Master, I'll come later."

As he said that, Sanbao ran away. Zhou Ze carefully looked around the room and walked to a study room. When he saw a huge vase on the ancient shelf, Zhou Ze's eyes lit up.

This thing is not small in size, and it is more than enough to hide things, and it is not easy to be discovered.

Thinking of this, I quickly took out the silver notes and put them on the bottom of the bottle, with only the house deeds pressed on it.

Then he put a lot of paper balls into pieces and threw them into the bottle to fill them, and then he smiled with satisfaction.

"If you recruit a thief, you must go for the exquisite box. If the house deed is lost, you can make up for it. You still have to hide the money and live on this in the future."

......

The west city of the capital.

The cat demon sat on Xu Gongzhu's shoulder and integrated into his collar. From time to time, he turned his head to look at Xu Gongzhu. Something was wrong with this person, and it seemed that he had suffered some blow.

"Do you regret finding Ma Chao?"

"If you deserve sin, how can you say regret?"

"Then why are you like this? I'll help you with it, and it's a blessing."

Xu Gongzhu shook her head.

"The case was not tried by the Third Department, so it was directly ordered to kill and reveal these filths. Although it was investigated clearly, this was not the result that the saint wanted. Therefore, even if Zhou Ze was released now, it is still hard to say what the future will be. Just like Zhang Xingquan, do you think he is really crazy?"

The cat demon tilted his head, obviously she couldn't understand these words.

"It's really troublesome to be a human being. What do you mean by saying so much?"

Xu Gongzhu sighed again and looked at someone performing juggling in the distance, which was very lively.

"I should ask the whole story, let me tell you that it is not a day or two for a saint to catch monsters. It is necessary to use it no matter what. This is not bad.

But Zhou Ze is different. It would be fine if he failed the imperial examination. He became an official in the court. Wouldn’t the saints look at him every day and think of this case when they see him. Sooner or later, I will not end well, I will harm him!"

...............

Two days later, a rapid knock on the door rang out.

Zhou Ze was startled and jumped up from the bed. Hearing the shouts of Sanbao, then patted his chest.

"What about the soul-hunting? I'm so screaming early in the morning?"

Zhu pulled his shoes and Zhou Ze opened the door.

Sanbao had already brought the basin in and then found a new set of white robes.

"Young master quickly wash up and change your clothes. The results are released today. The student will wait before dawn. It is about to be on the silence of the silence. Why are you not in a hurry at all?"

Sanbao's mouth did not stop, but his movements were quick and helped Zhou Ze finish washing. Zhou Ze frowned.

"If you don't go, you will report good news from household to household. Can you erase it if you don't go to see it?"

Sanbao was speechless and pulled Zhou Ze out of the door.

When he arrived at the front yard, Zhou Ze sat on the chair and stopped moving no matter what he said.

"I'm hungry and I can't hide what should be ours, and we can't earn it if we shouldn't be ours."

Sanbao couldn't resist Zhou Ze, so he stomped his feet and walked out with the basket in his arms.

Zhou Ze then started to laugh. This kid is quite interesting, he is an idea.

As soon as I stood up, I stretched my waist when I suddenly heard a creaking sound from the backyard, just like the sound of a wooden door being carefully closed. There was not much noise, but Zhou Ze was nervous.

Could it be that the family has recruited thieves?

Thinking of the silver notes in the vase in the room, he ran to the backyard. As soon as he entered the backyard, he saw a black shadow rushing into the room.

Zhou Ze couldn't take much care of it, so he hurried into the room.

The scene in front of him made his blood pressure rise suddenly.

The books and various objects were thrown all over the floor, and the largest vase was also poured on one side, and the paper and boxes inside were thrown out.

"Ah, who is shameless who actually stole my money?"

He shouted and rushed out of the room. He didn't have the ability to go to the room. He quickly ran towards the door. When he opened the door, Sanbao happened to be in front of the door and the two almost bumped into it.

"Young Master, what's wrong with this? "

Zhou Ze pointed to the street on the east side, and just ran fast at 180 meters, he was already a little dizzy, and it was unrealistic to catch the thief by himself.

"Hurry... Go and report to the official. A thief just entered and stole all the money in the house."

Sanbao was so scared that the basket in his hand almost overturned. Zhou Ze quickly took it and kicked Sanbao's butt. The stunned boy recovered.

Before the Three Treasures could turn around, a sound of gongs and drums broke through the eardrums.

The group rushed towards Zhou Ze's door quickly, and the gong beat the gong to death, bowing to Zhou Ze with a smile on his face.

"Are you General Zhou Ze, Zhou Sanyuan, the third son of General Zhou?"

Zhou Ze's mind is full of silver notes now, so he has no intention of caring about them, but he blocks the door one by one and can't get out even if he wants to.

"Yes, why do you want to say it quickly? I have something urgent to do?"

The man in the leader was stunned.

It seems that the first time I saw such an impatient host, I quickly presented the good news with both hands.

"I've won, congratulations to Mr. Zhou for becoming the top scorer in Longmen High School!"

Zhou Ze was anxious and took the good news and nodded perfunctorily without even reading it.

"I understand, thank you for your trip. Zhou still has important things. I won't have more greetings when I'm in a hurry to go out! Sanbao greets me and I'll report to the official."

Zhou Ze didn't say nonsense, he pushed away the crowd blocking them and squeezed out like this.

The official who sent the good news looked around and stood there in a daze.

The imperial examination once every three years is definitely a good gift. People in high school usually give rewards, and it is very generous.

But he saw something just now, thank you just now, and the people left and left them here. Is this what people do?
