Bu Huishu is a down-and-out young man who loves to read. People call him the "madman."
He has no interest in fame or officialdom, and he has no interest in women.
He is good at solving cases, all because he found a silver ring in a charity field inscribed with the words "Yahweh."
Earlier, a man's body was found at the mouth of Jinghu Lake in Xiangyang. There were no visible wounds, and he may have drowned.
After the villagers found him, they reported the matter to the local headman. The headman asked a petition writer to draft a report for the authorities, but the writer demanded 1,000 taels of silver as payment.
The headman neither had that much money nor wanted to pay, so he was willing to offer only 200 taels.
The madman hastily wrote a report: "At the mouth of Jinghu Lake, one body found floating."
What happened next? What did the petition writer do? Find out in the story...
