Dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty, I was working as a detective in Chang'an

At this time, Carpenter Cai's wife came out with a tea tray. She was an enchanting woman with a sense of charm all over her body.

She had a nice voice, smiled at us, and said, "Everyone, please have some tea." As she said that, she stretched out her delicate hands, held a bowl of tea and handed it to me with a seductive look in her eyes.

At this time, I noticed that Carpenter Cai's face had turned livid. He clenched his fists, but did not explode. It could be seen that he was forcibly suppressing his anger.

But he soon calmed down, put on another face, and said with a smile: "Guys, what do you need to know?"

I asked: "Do you know Mrs. Li?"

"I met her once, but I don't have much impression. Her husband bought a wardrobe from me a few months ago, and I gave it to him at home. He was not at home at the time, so I gave it to her. Her mother-in-law was also present."

"Where were you during the days when Mr. Li was killed?"

"Do you suspect that I am a murderer? What evidence do you have?"

"Because the crime scene is near your home, we will ask all nearby residents this way. Don't mind."

"Oh, those days I was rushing to make a batch of tables and chairs for the academy. I was busy at home every day and hardly went out."

"Can anyone prove it?"

"My wife can prove that the neighbors also saw me busy." I saw a tremor in the corner of his mouth, which was difficult to detect, but it dared to indicate that he was a little nervous.

After returning from Carpenter Cai's house, we made another pretense and went to his neighbor's house to make the same inquiry, so that he would think it was a routine matter.

We became more suspicious of him. I said to the fat man:

"Have you noticed that her wife and the deceased have a common characteristic?"

The fat man said: "Young man!"

"Yes, this is a characteristic they share, and they are both very beautiful. The murderer may have hated or even hated women with this appearance. He could not kill his wife for various reasons, so he took all the The resentment was vented on other women, cruelly harming her.

Now that we have no more direct evidence to prove that he is the murderer, there is no way we can do anything about it? "I shook my head helplessly and said.

The fat man said: "Since he is very interested in such a woman, we can pretend to be such a woman, and maybe we can lure him into taking the bait."

"No, it's too dangerous. We can't try it easily in the face of such a fierce villain."

Xiao Tianbao was silent for a while and said: "I can, let me go. I sang Hua Dan in the Caotai class. After dressing up, I looked like a woman. And I also have martial arts. I'm not afraid. Besides, there are you." Woolen cloth?"

"That's not possible, it's too dangerous!"

"Brother Guo, if you don't catch this murderous demon quickly and let him meet other similar-looking women, he might commit murder again. We can send more people to hide nearby. As long as I send a signal, you will come. Save me, there’s no danger.”

The fat man said: "I think this method is feasible. When his wife came out to pour tea today, he was obviously stimulated. If he meets another woman who looks similar to his wife, he may kill again. "

It seems that the only way now is to lure the snake out of its hole.

Back at the Yamen, we reported the results of this investigation to Magistrate Wang and told us our plan for this operation. The magistrate agreed very much. He sent people to lurk near Cai Carpenter's house. If Xiao Tianbao was found, If there is any danger to life, you can rush to save people as soon as possible.

Wang Laifu's cousin is called Wang Cheng, who lives near Carpenter Cai's house. In order to make the play more realistic, we asked Wang Cheng to help us. We said we needed to build a pavilion at home and asked him to come and measure the dimensions in person. When he came in, we arranged for Xiao Tianbao to meet him and made some teases to lure him in.

He won't commit murder at Wang Cheng's house. He will definitely lure Xiao Tianbao to the inn or a more remote place. We can just follow him secretly.

We put all our plans in place and returned home.

In order to make the suspect cancel his suspicion, we did not take action immediately. Instead, it took a day before Wang Cheng went to Carpenter Cai's house.

I have to admit that Liu Qingqing is really an expert in makeup. Her makeup kit is like a treasure chest, including rouge, gouache, and everything. Our task now is to turn little Tianbao into a very beautiful girl with the same mole on her nose. girls.

Oh my god, after Liu Qingqing put Xiao Tianbao into her long dress, gave him exquisite makeup, and gave him a bun like that of the deceased, Xiao Tianbao actually looked exactly like a girl. , even more beautiful than women.

"Remember, don't panic. We are all by your side to protect you." I patted Xiao Tianbao on the shoulder.

"With Brother Guo and Brother Zheng here, I'm not afraid of anything!"

"Good boy, this time it's up to you." We sent Tianbao to a relative's house in Laifu in advance and waited for Carpenter Cai to arrive.

At noon, Wang Cheng went to Carpenter Cai's house. They were not familiar with each other, but they recognized each other and just said hello when they met.

Wang Cheng came to Carpenter Cai's house. Seeing that he was a neighbor, Carpenter Cai let him in. After a few words of greeting, he explained his purpose of coming.

"Master Cai, you are always kind. I have something to trouble you today."

Carpenter Cai said: "Those who are troublesome or not are all neighbors. If you have any questions, please speak to me."

"I recently told my daughter that I have a relative who will entertain her in-laws in the next two days. There are many people coming and the house is hot, so I want to build a pavilion in the yard. You are one of the best here, so we need to do this this time. Please help me, the price is easy to negotiate, you just have to make an offer, I won’t give you a counter-offer."

Carpenter Cai smiled and said, "How can we talk about the price if we are from the neighborhood? I will go to your place with you and take measurements first."

At this time, Carpenter Cai followed Wang Cheng to his house with his pocket on his back.

Wang Cheng pointed to an open space in the yard and said to Carpenter Cai, "It's right here. See how big it is."

Carpenter Cai looked at it for a while, then took out the ink fountain and flicked the thread on the ground to determine the approximate size.

Wang Cheng continued: "It's hot today. Come in and have a rest, drink tea, and let's discuss the style and wages."

"You're welcome, you're welcome." After saying that, they entered the house together.

At this time, Wang Cheng shouted to the inner room: "Hurry and serve tea to the guests, why are you so blind?" Then, he said to Carpenter Cai: "My wife left early, and I am not used to such a daughter." Think about it, don't laugh at me."

Fatty, me, and little Tianbao were in the back room when we heard Wang Cheng shouting, so we handed the tea tray to Tianbao and told him not to be nervous.

As expected, Xiao Tianbao did not disappoint us. He walked out Yingying, met Carpenter Cai, gave him a slight bow, handed over the tea, and said, "Please use the tea."

At this time Wang Cheng said: "I'm a little anxious. Let my daughter talk to you first. I'll come back as soon as I go."
