Chapter 1584: Knock Him Out

However, it was like Fan Jianxi knew he’d have visitors snooping around. There was nothing in his office except for some official doc.u.ments.

There were no clues that could lead Xue Yan in the right direction at all.

Not finding anything in the office, Xue Yan looked around in the other rooms in the front yard of the government office but it was to no avail.

The government office also had a storeroom. He secretly went in and found the tax records of Dianhe County. However, it was a general record, which was the same as the general record that the Dianhe County Office had in its place. Although he still did not know who the mastermind was, it was obvious that Fan Jianxi was a jackal of the same feather as the Dianhe County Magistrate.

He then went to the backyard of the government office, where Fan Jianxi and his family lived.

Because it was late at night, other than those on duty, everyone else was asleep.

Night guards were patrolling the area. Other than the officers who wore the uniforms exclusive to officers, the maids and servants were all asleep.

Xue Yan didn’t go into the occupied rooms to check on them. He only checked some empty rooms, especially the hall. The decoration of those rooms was very simple. The tea sets and other things were very ordinary. It was no wonder that the people outside believed that Fan Jianxi was honest and upright.

After he confirmed everything, only then did Xue Yan return to the rented courtyard.

He changed out of his night-traveling clothes and gave them a simple wash before returning to the room he and Jiang Yue were staying in.

There was only him and Jiang Yue in this courtyard. There was no one else, so it was much more convenient to do whatever they wanted.

Jiang Yue was originally asleep. She only opened her eyes when she heard the sound. She knew that Xue Yan had returned, but she did not get up. Instead, she waited. She knew that Xue Yan would come into the room and get on the bed. She hugged him and asked, “How was it?”

Xue Yan shook his head and sighed again, indicating that he didn’t find anything.

Jiang Yue knew that Fan Jianxi was an old fox. Otherwise, Xue Yan would have come back with news and they would be able to discover more clues.

In the following days, due to Jiang Yue’s pregnancy, Xue Yan tried his best not to let her sit in the carriage. Instead, he asked her to rest more. Xue Yan himself was getting busier. During the day, he would ride a horse to randomly check three different places to see if those hired people had properly helped to post and distribute missing person notices. At night, he visited the government office.

He didn’t go to scout too late into the night.

After ten days, there was still no trace of any clues.

It was rare to see someone so cunning cover up their traces well.

In two days, they would have stayed in Da Chen for half a month and would have to return to Da Long by then. However, they still found nothing. Jiang Yue thought for a while and said, “Forget it. We shouldn’t investigate like this. There won’t be any results if we keep going on. We should knock them out. Let’s check the government office and search Fan Jianxi’s body to see if there is anything wrong.

“Logically speaking, there should be something on the person involved. Fan Jianxi is so cunning. He must have kept some solid evidence to protect himself. He hasn’t been anywhere else these days. He’s either in the front yard or the backyard of the government office. We’ve asked around.

“They say that Fan Jianxi is a diligent magistrate. He’s always in the government office. I think the solid evidence he has must be in the government office. However, we shouldn’t cause a commotion. You’ll have to knock him out.”
