Chapter 222: Yuan Shanchuan Didn ‘t Travel Far

They did receive the case. The Yuan family came to report the case, which was recorded in the case file of the county office.

However, the officer knew well that this case would only be placed aside. The entire county office, including Lord Xiang, was prioritizing the stability of some unstable factors in Jiangyuan County. They also had to investigate the original officials and collect evidence of their crimes. They were doing everything they could to bring down the Shu family of the Dongan Province magistrate.

Not to mention the Yuan family’s case, where there was no helpful information, and they could only look for people aimlessly. Even if it was a more important case, they could only suppress it now and delay the handling.

Therefore, when the Yuan family reported the case yesterday, the clerk in charge of recording the case quickly placed the file at the bottom.

It wasn’t that they were neglecting their duties but that they had limited manpower. Such small cases were basically distributed to the officers who had not made any mistakes in the county office.

It was just that under the leadership of the original county magistrate, those officials were not efficient and smart enough. By the time it was time for the Yuan Family’s case, it would probably be half a month later.

However, the soldiers did not expect Yuan Shanchuan to be Miss Lu’s uncle.

It seemed the Yuan family had returned and said the authorities were unconcerned about this matter, so Miss Lu came personally?

That was a little awkward.

Fortunately, Shu Yu quickly resolved the awkwardness.”When the Yuan family came to report the case the day before yesterday, they were in a hurry and didn’t have a clue. I thought that how could you find someone like this? You don’t even have a clue, which would add to your burden. Later on, we thought about it and suddenly thought of a clue, so I hurried over to see if this clue was helpful. ”

The soldier immediately asked, “What clue do you have?”

“Travel pass.” Shu Yu said, “We thought we could find out if my uncle had gone on a long journey through the travel pass. The search area would be reduced if he didn’t travel far.”

The soldier was stunned. Indeed, if the officer wanted to do the job, he would first check the travel pass.

“Yuan Shanchuan disappeared half a month ago, right? I’ll go find the documents and check if he traveled.”

Shu Yu immediately said gratefully, “Thank you. Sorry for troubling you.” “It’s fine. It’s nothing.” The soldier said, “Wait here for me.”

After saying that, he turned around and ran inside. Shu Yu looked at the sun. The weather was getting hot now, so she estimated they would have to wait a while.

There was a tea stall in the distance. Shu Yu sat down with the old lady and ordered two cups of herbal tea.

The old lady was a little excited. “I didn’t expect the officer to be so enthusiastic.”

Shu Yu coughed lightly and asked her to drink some tea.

The streets were filled with people coming and going. After half an hour, Shu Yu saw the officer come out of the county office.

She stood up and took the herbal tea to the table.

Shu Yu handed it over without waiting for the officer to speak. “Thank you for your hard work, officer. Have a sip of herbal tea first and speak slowly.” The soldier was stunned for a moment before he chuckled. His heart instantly felt very warm.

Although this Miss Lu was young, the things she did make people feel very comfortable.

After drinking the tea, he raised his head and said, “I’ve checked. Yuan Shanchuan didn’t travel far. He is still within a radius of a hundred miles. The area of search could be reduced.”

Shu Yu and the old lady looked at each other, and the latter let out a long sigh of relief.

But soon, she was worried again.. Since Yuan Shanchuan was not far away, where did he go?
