Zhou Yun'er coaxed Lan Yue into submission with a few words, who would not say a word of admiration after seeing this.

Lan Yue laughed like a hype, holding Zhou Yun'er's hand and walked into the house, Su Qingyu followed closely behind.

"do it."

Lan Yue said.

Everyone sat down.

"While I have time now, if you have any questions, just ask."

Lan Yue shook the fan in her hand, looking defiant.

Su Qingyu asked, holding back the feeling of wanting to give her a sword.

"When was the last time you saw your husband?"

"He has a lot of things outside, and he hasn't returned home for a long time. I also forgot when the last time we met."

Lan Yue said lightly.

"Your husband's body was found in an alley near your home. Didn't he come home that day?"

Su Qingyu asked.

"I don't know that! I haven't seen him anyway."

"Aren't you home?"

Su Qingyu raised her eyebrows lightly.

"I happened to be out on the night of his accident."

Lan Yue said.

"Why did you go?"

"He spends his time outside all day, and I have to have my own life."

Su Qingyu sneered.

It turned out that they went out to find someone, no wonder they didn't talk about it all the time, they were another superficial couple.

"Does your husband have any enemies?"

I saw Lan Yue chuckled: "The enemy? You should ask whose enemy we are."

"Do you know these two people?"

Su Qingyu took out the portraits of Zhao Dabao and Chen Biao.

Lan Yue glanced roughly, pointed at Chen Biao's portrait and said.

"This one is the owner of the rice shop next door. All the rice in our place is bought from him."

"I heard that he also died a few days ago, is it true?"

Lan Yue's face was full of gossip.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask, what about the other one?"

"Is this person surnamed Zhao?"

"Where did you meet, what's the relationship?"

Su Qingyu approached step by step.

"I'm not very clear. Wang Jian often mentioned him to me before. It seems that they have a good relationship. I saw them go to a restaurant for dinner a month ago."

"Have you heard of Chen Ping?"

Since the uncle said that his son borrowed money because of gambling, the casino must be Wang Jian's.

"See you, king? Don't say that I seem to have heard of it. Wait a minute."

Lan Yueqi walked towards the door, and after a while came with a ledger in her hand.

"Here! Look!"

Su Qingyu saw Chen Ping's name on the ledger, but it was crossed out.

"What does it mean."

"Presumably you also know that Wang Jian owns a casino, and the records in this book are all those who owed money, and those that have been crossed out have already been repaid."

Su Qingyu saw that the number below Chen Ping was 320 taels, which is a number that ordinary people can't get in a lifetime, so he could only choose to go to Zhao Dabao's bank to borrow money, and use one hole to fill another, so that It led to a fatal disaster.

"okay, I get it."

"Has anything strange happened at home recently?"

Su Qingyu asked.

Lan Yue thought back carefully,

"Strange things... really not, by the way! Recently, you can always see big mice, does that count?"

Another big mouse!Does this have any connection?

"Is it only in your house or in the neighborhood?"

Lan Yue shook her head: "I really haven't heard anyone else say this. It may be that the house is too big and some places haven't been cleaned well. I asked the people below to tidy up inside and out. In the past few days Never saw it again."

"After your husband died?"

"Yes! What you said is true. After Wang Jian died, I never saw that mouse again."

"Other people say that everything has a spirit, do you think that mouse is not clean!"

Su Qingyu ignored Lan Yue's boring question.

"What does that mouse look like?"

Lan Yue thought about it carefully, and used her hand to draw the size of the mouse, which was four to five times the size of an ordinary mouse.

"It's about this long, its eyes are glowing, and it's so fast that it's impossible to catch it,,,,,,"

Originally, Su Qingyu didn't take the big rat that Mrs. Zhao said to heart, but Wang Jian's family also had it, so it must have something to do with this matter

Chapter 257 The Investigation Continues

"Okay, I see, let's not bother."

Su Qingyu and Zhou Yun'er got up and left the house.

"Sister Qingyu! Do you also think there is something wrong with that mouse?"

Zhou Yuner asked.

Su Qingyu nodded.

"Since both of them appeared before, and they both appeared a few days before the deceased's accident, and then disappeared after death, the mouse must have something to do with this matter. If we continue to investigate this mouse as a clue, maybe will find out the truth of the matter.”

After walking for a while, the two arrived at Chen Biao's rice shop, which was very large.

There are still people running it.

"Please, guest officer, what do you need? We have rice and wheat..."

The waiter in the shop gave warm hospitality.

"We're not here to buy rice."

"It's from the yamen."

Su Qingyu showed her waist card.

"Yo, please come inside the official, but the proprietress is inside!"

The waiter took Su Qingyu and Zhou Yun'er to the backyard.

Chen Biao's home is connected with Mipu.

"Miss Boss, the people from the yamen are here."

The waiter stood outside the door and shouted loudly.

"Let them in."

The voice was extremely gentle, with a hint of hoarseness, it should have been crying.

The door was opened, and the two entered together.

There are no servants in the house, but the house is tidy and cleaned in an orderly manner. It can be seen that there is a virtuous mistress in the house.

The woman was sitting in front of the table, weeping silently. Seeing the two people coming in, she quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and stood up.

"I don't know why the two officials came here?"

"Please sit down."

The woman thoughtfully poured water for Su Qingyu and Zhou Yun'er.

"We just came to ask about your husband."

Hearing the word husband, the woman's nose became sour and her eyes began to turn red.

"Officer, you must make decisions for my master!"

"Don't worry, we will definitely seek justice for him."

Zhou Yun'er tried her best to ease Mrs. Chen's emotions.

"Please tell me when and where you last saw your husband."

Mrs. Chen tried hard to control her emotions.

"The last time I saw him was the night of his accident. We were going to rest that day, and then he told me that there were still two bags of rice in the rice shop, so he got up and went to the rice shop, and then... Woooo...he never came back! Woooooo..."

Mrs. Chen cried again.

Zhou Yun'er gently patted Madam Chen on the back to calm her down.

"Shouldn't rice bags be placed on the ground? Why do you have to collect rice bags in the middle of the night?"

Su Qingyu felt very strange about this behavior.

"The rice bags used to be placed on the ground, but a few big rats were found a few nights ago. The master was afraid that the rice would be ruined by the rats, so he picked up the rice bags every night, but who knew that he forgot that night, sir. Just... something happened."

After Chen Biao left, Mrs. Chen shed tears all day long.

Hearing the word "mouse", Su Qingyu and Zhou Yun'er looked at each other and strengthened their minds.

"What does the mouse look like?"

"I haven't seen it either. I heard from the master that the mouse is four or five times the size of a normal mouse. It has red eyes and runs very fast. It's impossible to catch it..."

This statement is exactly the same as Lan Yue's description.

"Is there any more now?"

Mrs. Chen thought about it carefully: "I really haven't heard of it in the past few days."

"Your husband has only been away for three days, why is the rice shop still in business?"

Seeing Mrs. Chen's sad look, Su Qingyu didn't seem to be able to take care of the rice shop.

"This rice shop is the master's life's painstaking effort. He certainly doesn't want to let it go down like this. I want to keep it open for him."

Su Qingyu looked up at the several ledgers on the table, and it could be seen that Mrs. Chen was really working hard to manage the rice shop.

"Did you find your husband's body?"

Su Qingyu continued to ask.

"Yes! That night, I took a nap because I was too sleepy. I didn't expect that when I woke up again, the master hadn't come back yet. I took the lantern and went to the rice shop to look for him. When I opened the door, I saw the master lying on the bed. On the ground, I went up to check, and shone a lantern on his face, his face was pale, without a trace of blood."

"Later, the waiter from the shop came, and we reported to the officials at dawn."

"Officer, when will you return the master's body to me, I want him to go away properly."

Madam Chen asked with red eyes.

"You don't need to worry about this matter. When we find out the truth, we will naturally send you the body."

Zhou Yun'er said from the side.
