My wife is not a demon

Mu Dahe?

While Chen Mu was thinking, Hu Butou came with an old man in his 50s.

"Brother Chen, his name is Wu Shigui, and he was the one who first discovered that Mu's house was on fire, and he called the neighbors to fight the fire."

Chen Mu looked at him.

The latter was a little cautious, nodded and bowed his head and said hello: "Xiaomin pays homage to the official."

"When did you find out the house was on fire?"

Chen Mu asked directly.

The old man Wu replied honestly: "It was probably around the beginning of the Xu Dynasty."

At the beginning of the Xu Dynasty?

At that time, Mu Erhe, who was far away in Qingyu County, had already attacked his niece, and the 'corpse' was also taken away by the snake demon...

Chen Mu took out a small notebook to write down the timeline, and asked, "Did you hear the shouts coming from the room?"

"Yes, and there was the sound of knocking on the door."

"The sound of slamming the door?" Chen Mu's eyes were sharp. "That is to say, the door inside cannot be opened?"

"It should be like this. I guess the fire was too big and the door was blocked by something. I tried to save it, but I couldn't get close to the house."

A bit of shame appeared on Old Man Wu's face.

"When you called other neighbors for help, was there any sound inside?"

"No, everyone was in a hurry at that time. Anyway, I didn't hear the sound of the door being smashed again. I guess I passed out from choking."

Old man Wu said.

The charcoal pen between Chen Mu's fingers tapped the book lightly, carefully chewing on the hidden information in the other party's words.

Afterwards, he asked a few more questions before letting Old Man Wu leave.

Chen Mu put away the notebook and said to Hu Butou:

"Just now I found some herbs from the ruins, it's quinine, which is used for abortion.

I asked Ah Wei to investigate and found that Mu Dahe bought it from a nearby pharmacy. What does Brother Hu think about this? "

After listening to Chen Mu's words, Hu Butou immediately raised his brows and muttered to himself:

"Could it be that the rumors are true?"

"What rumor?"

Chen Mu suddenly smelled gossip.

Hu Butou pursed his lips and said:

"This Mu Xiang'er's mother used to be a good-looking lady, and she was good-looking, but she eloped with a poor scholar and ruined her reputation."

"elopement?"

"Yes, her family caught her and punished her severely, then sold her to Mu Dahe and gave birth to a boy and a girl."

Hu catcher paused, and continued:

"However, the scholar came back last year and became a businessman. He even paid a special visit to Mrs. Mu and left some money.

For some reason, there were rumors that Mrs. Mu and the scholar had reconnected.

Namu Dahe was originally irritable. During those days, he beat his wife every day and almost killed him.

Even so, many people really believed that the scholar and Mrs. Mu had rekindled their old relationship.

Looking at it now, I'm afraid Mrs. Mu..."

Hu Butou didn't continue talking, but Chen Mu understood the meaning.

It was nothing more than Mrs. Mu accidentally ruining the scholar's child after cheating. Mu Dahe beat his wife violently after learning about it, and bought medicine to have an abortion.

"What about the scholar?"

"He left Maling County by boat this morning and went to Xiangzhou."

Hu Butou said.

After finishing speaking, his expression changed suddenly, and he stared at Chen Mu: "By the way, he also participated in the fire fighting. Could it be... this scholar did it!"

Chen Mu didn't speak.

Judging from the current situation, if Mrs. Mu really had an abortion, then the scholar must be the most suspicious!

But it's just a suspicion.

"Interesting, the case is getting more and more involved, and all kinds of messy information is coming out."

Chen Mu laughed at himself.

At this moment, he really hoped that this case was done by a monster, at least he wouldn't have such a headache.

"Boss, the transcripts are ready."

At this time, several arresters hurried over and handed over a large stack of transcripts in their hands to Hu Butou, which was as thick as a brick.

Chen Mu's eyes lit up, and he quickly took it over.

These transcripts are all described by people who have had contact with Mu Xiang'er's family on weekdays, and they are the biggest reliance to solve the case so far.

The direction of the case is all here.

"Thank you brothers for your help, you have worked so hard, I will definitely treat you to a drink some other day."

Chen Mu did not forget to thank these police officers in Maling County.

Seeing that Chen Mu was so polite, the police officers also had a good impression, and responded modestly.

"Are these things useful?"

The Yin Yang sect woman was puzzled.

Chen Mu smiled and said, "To a certain extent, this is surveillance. By the way, have you ever heard such a sentence——"
