Pei Ye, with [Quail Head]'s record branded in his mind, went to the Wannian County Office to search through the records of Pingkang Square, but he found nothing unusual, still the same fights and thieves. For convenience of capturing thieves citywide, the case had already been reported to Chang'an County. As for the fights, the names and surnames of those involved were clearly listed. Pei Ye searched but did not find the name of Zhang Piaoxu from that night among them.
Thus, he realized that many fights went unreported, and with only two or three dozen constables in the Arresting Office, it certainly didn't look like they were equipped to inspect the whole city. It seemed that only reported cases were considered official.
