Gu Ya stepped forward.
Upon seeing Gu Ya approach, both Shopkeeper Sheng and Fan Wu felt a pang of guilt. Both of them looked at Gu Ya warily, with Shopkeeper Sheng especially anxious as he asked, "What are you doing? Mr. Gu, I warn you, the Magistrate is still here! Don't do anything rash." He was afraid of Gu Ya.
The voice of Shopkeeper Sheng trembled as he spoke.
Gu Ya didn't even glance at Shopkeeper Sheng and walked straight up to Fan Wu, grabbing the purse tied around his waist, which was made of fine satin.
It was the same purse that Shopkeeper Sheng had given to Fan Wu initially.
There were a hundred taels of silver in the purse.
However, after all this time, most of the silver that Fan Wu and Liu Kui had was squandered away. Now, only about fifty taels were left in the purse.
Gu Ya presented the snatched purse to the Magistrate, "My lord, look, this purse is the evidence." He too thought that Gu Ya actually had some evidence.
