Chapter 820: The Bank Escapes
Jiang Youzhen had already changed himself into clean clothes and was leaning back on the pillow.
"Are you awake?" Li Dongsheng walked in and saw that Jiang Youzhen was already awake, so he asked hurriedly.
Jiang Youzhen found that there was no one behind her, so he asked, "Did you bandage my wound?"
Li Dongsheng's breath was choked, and he said awkwardly: "I bandaged it, you... didn't you want to keep it a secret? I was afraid that others would find out, so I did it myself. But I didn't look at what I shouldn't have seen, don't worry!"
Jiang Youzhen breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you!"
The more people who knew, the more danger there would be. She didn't trust Jiang Li and the others. Since Li Dongsheng already knew about it, it would be best for him to treat the wound.
Seeing Jiang Youzhen's calm face, Li Dongsheng felt something strange. He was happy about Jiang Youzhen's trust, but there was also a hint of disappointment.
What was he disappointed about? He himself didn't know.
"Has the person been caught?" Jiang Youzhen asked about this immediately.
Li Dongsheng shook his head, "Not yet, but I found a suspicious person in the bank, I plan to go over and take a look."
"I'll go with you." Jiang Youzhen said as he was about to lift the quilt and get out of bed.
Li Dongsheng hurriedly stepped forward and held Jiang Youzhen's right shoulder. "Just lie here, I'll go over. You've been seriously injured and lost too much blood. You're very weak right now and need to rest."
"I'm worried if I don't go over and keep an eye on him. He's a ghost with extremely fast movements, and I'm afraid you won't be able to catch him. He can rest at any time, even after this case is over."
Jiang Youzhen had already stood up and put on his shoes. If he didn't catch the ghost and the masked man, it would be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain. These people would definitely come back in the future.
Moreover, the power of the masked man is still in the dark. If it is not exposed, it will become a big problem in the future.
"Well! Then let me help you over there!" Li Dongsheng sighed. Jiang Youzhen is just too strong-willed.
"No need, my leg is not injured." Jiang Youzhen smiled and shook his head.
Seeing Jiang Youzhen walking in front, Li Dongsheng looked at her back and suddenly became curious. Why did Jiang Youzhen dress up as a man? Did her family and clan members know her identity as a girl?
However, even though Jiang Youzhen is a woman, her strategy and courage are admirable.
Jiang Youzhen and his companions were about to rush to the money house when a guard came running over to report in a panic.
"Sir, a suspicious person in the bank ran away."
"What? Then this person must be a ghost." Li Dongsheng was a little annoyed. It seemed that Jiang Youzhen's worries were right.
They couldn't catch the ghost at all, and now Jiang Youzhen was seriously injured. I'm afraid they wouldn't have much chance of winning even if they fought against the ghost.
Jiang Youzhen immediately understood what happened. The guard handed her a seal. "This is the personal seal he brought when he took the banknotes. There is also a bloody handwriting. The bank owner compared the handwriting and it should be the same person who deposited the money at that time."
"In other words, he went to collect the banknote with the masked man's personal seal? Was the banknote given to him?"
"The shopkeeper didn't give it to us at that time, but now the banknote is in our hands."
Jiang Youzhen took the seal in his hand and checked it, and found a name engraved on it, "Yu Yonglin."
"This is definitely not a real name." Li Dongsheng came over to take a look, and then said affirmatively.
Jiang Youzhen took the seal in his hand and examined it. "How much money is left in this person's account? Or did he use something else as collateral?"
In ancient times, money shops were similar to banks. If one took a token of trust or a personal handwriting to withdraw money, one either had to deposit the money in a local money shop or use some valuable item or identity as collateral.
If you take the deposit deed and token given by the money house, then no matter which branch it is in, you can receive an amount not exceeding the amount on the deposit deed.
But this person took the token and the handwritten letter, which means it is the latter situation that Jiang Youzhen mentioned.
"There is no money on the account. It is said that the guarantee was made in the name of Lord Lu. Lord Lu personally went to the bank to stamp this private seal and put his fingerprints on it. He said that if anyone uses this seal to withdraw silver bills in the future, no matter how much, he will give it to them. They can go to his house to find him afterwards."
"Hmph!" Jiang Youzhen snorted coldly.
This Lu Shengyuan really made things very convenient for these people, even providing them with unlimited silver and money.
The banknotes were in their hands now, and they would most likely return them to the bank later, because Lu Shengyuan was already dead, and no one would go to the bank to return the money.
Just because Guimei didn't get the banknote, would he let it go? But they had already alerted the enemy, and Guimei would not appear again in a short time.
"Have the entire city been searched thoroughly? Especially those abandoned houses. Have the homes of ordinary people been checked one by one?" Jiang Youzhen asked again.
"The people's homes are being checked. As for the abandoned houses, Lord Fu said there is an abandoned City God Temple in the city, in the south city."
"Have you sent anyone to search?"
"We searched, but there's no one there."
It was Li Dongsheng who stepped forward and told Jiang Youzhen about a doctor's disappearance without reason, and Jiang Youzhen suddenly had an idea.
"Where is that clinic? Is it in South City?"
"Exactly!"
"Follow me to search in the south city." Jiang Youzhen immediately walked ahead.
The ghost moved out the masked man and the doctor who were hiding inside the City God statue. The officials had just searched them, and fortunately he found that the inside of the statue was empty and could barely accommodate three people.
"Hurry up and boil some medicine for him. Don't let him die." the ghost ordered.
Seeing the masked man unconscious, he was a little anxious. He hadn't received the silver yet, so he had to ask the masked man to find a way to give it to him.
The doctor immediately looked sad and said, "But how can I boil the medicine without a medicine pot?"
"You said before that you were missing a few herbs, and I took the risk to get them for you. Now you say there are no medicine jars. Are you looking for death? Can't you explain it clearly once and for all?" Guimei was furious.
The doctor trembled, "But you left before I even finished speaking!"
He is innocent, okay? He was arrested for no reason and treated, and I don’t even know if he has money?
These two strange men don't look like good people. If the masked man dies, it is unknown whether the masked man will kill him too.
"Wait here." The ghost said viciously.
He took two quick steps, then thought of something and turned around and said, "Don't even think about running away, or I can't guarantee what I can do if I catch you again."
"Yes, yes, yes! Hero, if you don't have a medicine jar, a small clay stove will do." The doctor nodded rapidly.
Jiang Youzhen led his men to South City and asked them to focus on investigating the South City area.
"Didn't we search South City just now? I'm afraid they are no longer in South City." Tao Chendong was worried.
"From the ghost's accent, he is not a local and must not be familiar with Jiangling. In addition, the masked man is poisoned and cannot be delayed. He will not go far away. We can only find a doctor nearby..."
