If it wasn't done by the government, what was the person who drew this map was thinking?

Thinking of this, he had goosebumps all over his body. His heart and liver also trembled. Suddenly, he realized that he seemed to be walking in a bottomless abyss.

In the darkness, it seemed there was a hand pushing him, and a pair of eyes staring at him.

The young man busily said: "Answering back master, when this subordinate went to the post house today to pick up the suspect, they found this in the corner of the post house's courtyard. This subordinate thought it was very useful, so I took it when I left. Just now, because we have been searching for the suspect's whereabouts aimlessly, I suddenly thought of this picture, so I rushed back to present it to Daren. I would like to ask Daren's opinion and learn from you."

Qian Daren naturally believes him. Although this subordinate was young, he has been working as a government official in the yamen for many years, which was even longer than longer him, the county magistrate. If this picture belongs to him, why should he take it out at this time to arouse his suspicion?

Qian Daren nodded his head: "Since it was picked up, it has nothing to do with you. Tell me, who else did you show this picture?"

The young man shook his head hurriedly: "No no, no one else. Since returning from the post house, this subordinate hasn't stopped searching for a moment. This subordinate has no time to talk to his companions."

This was also true. Qian Daren nodded his head again and picked up the map. After carefully reviewing it, he found that some shops on the map no longer exist. In those shops, new shops have already been opened. Obviously, this map was not newly painted, at least it was drawn 1 or 2 years ago.

Is it from one of the envoys of the Jin Country?

If they brought this with them, what are they planning to do? They said that came to the Chu Country to negotiate peace, but in fact, they have other purposes. And this detailed map proved that they have internal contacts in the state of Chu.

If so, why should his highness need to pour dirty water? He couldn't understand a thing.

"Daren!" The young man called.

Qian Daren returned to his senses and hurriedly said: "Tell me, how can I narrow it down?" Since he can't understand it, he wouldn't try to do so. He was just a small county magistrate who obeys orders. What will happen next was beyond his control.

The young man pointed to several streets and lanes on the map: "Daren, although the inn in the city hasn't been fully searched out yet, this subordinate thinks that they will definitely not stay in the inn. That is equivalent to waiting for us to catch them in the inn."

"So?" Qian Daren asked.

The young man said: "So, this subordinate guess that they are either hidden in this residential area or hidden in these deserted courtyards. There is also a brothel gambling house that only sees profit but not blood. This subordinate think that they only need to send people. Focus on searching these places and you will surely find them."

Qian Daren found it feasible after hearing it. He waved his hand and said: "Okay, I'll leave this matter to you to do it. If you do it well, you'll get a reward. If you don't, you will get the penalty yourself."

The young man was overjoyed and quickly thanked him.

Qian Daren waved his hand and motioned him to step back. Then he slowly closed his reddened eyes.

When Qian Daren closed his eyes, the corner of the young man's lips curved with a smile. His temperament and expression seemed to have changed with this smile.

He picked up the map on the table, turned, and left.

Just after the third shift, Zhou Gang rushed into the room, and Hu Feng, who closed his eyes, woke up immediately: "Are they here?"
