After Wei Wu received the lead about the Hongyun Gambling House from Yu Da and Sang Que, he took Xue Er and Ma Zi there in the morning and mobilized a squad of city patrol guards to surround the entire gambling den airtight.
The gambling house didn't open during the day. Wei Wu had people bring all related personnel to the entrance and interrogated them one by one.
To be cautious, Wei Wu didn't enter the gambling house personally. He first sent several constables from the government office inside to carefully search every corner for any shrines or spaces worshiping the Evil God, as well as any suspicious secret rooms.
The boss of the gambling house knelt and cried, repeatedly claiming innocence. Wei Wu killed a few of his subordinates on the spot, only then did the boss have his men recall that indeed, the men from the five households in Buiyi Lane had visited the gambling house one after another.
