Warm fragrance cloud around

Lin Junnuan also suddenly had a flash of inspiration, prying open the bulging qin tube under the huqin, and found the murder weapon.

It was a small hand | crossbow, she could hold it completely with one hand, and she would not be noticed if she hid it on her body.Although the crossbow was small, the workmanship was very delicate. The edges and corners were polished to be smooth and round. The material of the string could not be seen, but the elasticity was very strong. She had to use all her strength to pull it.What people are most concerned about is the crimson flame pattern on the hand|crossbow handle.

This handle|crossbow is also made by Chi Yan.

Lin Junnuan turned to look at A Yao, "The deceased was killed on the spot, and the one who had the opportunity to hide his crossbow could only be you sitting next to him, A Yao, what else can you say?"

A Yao bit her lower lip and looked at her with tears in her eyes. Lin Junnuan calmed down and turned her eyes away from her. How could he soften his heart just because the suspect looked so pitiful at the moment of his life.

Cheng Jiangyun took the crossbow from her hand, and compared it to the long needle on the forehead of the corpse. The width of the arrow slot coincided with the thickness of the long needle, so it should be the murder weapon.

"Be honest, why did you kill your father?" Cheng Jiangyun frowned, with a hint of coolness in his tone.

"I didn't, I didn't!" Maybe she was stimulated by the word "father killing", or the murder weapon was found, and she had no way to escape. A Yao suddenly became excited, and suddenly raised her voice and shouted, "What father?" , he is not my father, he is a devil, a beast!!"

It seemed that there was something inside, Lin Junnuan couldn't help shaking his head, walked to the window silently, and handed over the task of interrogating the motive to Cheng Jiangyun.She is the worst at coping with this kind of scene where the perpetrator states his motives, not to mention that now she still has some affection for A Yao who looks weak and helpless.

No matter what the reasons are, to make a mistake is to make a mistake, to commit a crime is to commit a crime, there is no sympathy to speak of, this is the principle she set for herself.

Lin Junnuan looked out the window at the dimly lit night scene outside. The night was getting darker. Although the street was full of people during the day, it was still a bit quiet at this time. The occasional footsteps were very clear. The street market There are only a few scattered lights on both sides, and I don't know who is waiting for the return.

On the other side of the box, Ayao cried for a while, gnashed her teeth for a while, and told Cheng Jiangyun about the inhuman treatment she had suffered under the hands of the deceased in the past few years. A statue without emotion. After A Yao finished speaking in tears, he asked casually, "So you killed him?"

In the past, A Yao, who was always successful in being cute and miserly, couldn't help but feel discouraged, and nodded bitterly, "Yes, he deserves to die!"

"Where did you get the hand | crossbow?"

This kind of crossbow is exquisite in workmanship, easy to carry and concealed. It is very suitable for assassination. It is not something that a singing girl who has been forcibly kidnapped and abused for several years can get it.

A Yao lowered her head and did not answer.

"I advise you to tell the truth, so that you don't have to suffer when you go back to Dali Temple later." Lin Junnuan shrugged and walked back to them, deliberately putting on a vicious expression, "How dare you commit murder in front of the Dali Temple Secretary?" , I think you are quite courageous."

"You are the Minister of Dali Temple?!" A Yao looked at Cheng Jiangyun in horror, "You are actually the Minister of Dali Temple, haha, you are the Minister of Dali Temple! Even God is unwilling to help me!" A hint of madness.

"So you should explain everything in detail. Maybe our adults will see your good performance and are willing to punish you lightly." This sentence Lin Junnuan said sincerely.

"Heh, so what about Dali Siqing?" A Yao changed from being weak and pitiful before, and her gaze became firm. "It's just one life, and I'm not at a loss if I can catch this beast before I die!"

What a weak woman, why do you have to force yourself like this, Lin Junnuan couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, "Why not, it's a big loss to trade your blossoming future for his life that deserves to go to hell."

After hearing what she said, A Yao closed her eyes and didn't know what to think, suddenly said in a low voice: "I don't know where the crossbow came from, it suddenly appeared on the table in my room last night, sending the crossbow The man also left a note, teaching me how to kill in public and how to dispose of the murder weapon after committing the crime, he did not leave his name.”

"What time was last night?"

"At that time, I just heard the beeping sound, at the time of the third watch."

"Once you get the crossbow, you can kill the dead immediately and run away. Why do you spend so much time committing murder under the eyes of everyone?" Lin Junnuan was more curious about this.

"That beast is very vigilant, and I can't compare to him in terms of strength. When the two of us are alone, I have no chance to strike." A Yao gritted her teeth, "Others thought I was his daughter. He was killed suddenly. If I Sudden disappearance will definitely make people suspicious, and I won’t be able to run away when the time comes, it’s better to follow the plan on the note, as long as the hand | crossbow is not found, I am innocent!”

"It's a pity that the murder weapon was still found," Lin Junnuan sighed without sincerity, "Humans are most afraid of being smart."

***

A Yao had already pleaded guilty, and the rest of the Dali Temple, who was separated from another room, were released, each of them dejected, and hurried home after bidding farewell to Cheng Jiangyun.It's not easy for someone to treat a guest to a big meal, but unexpectedly, they encounter a murder case and are treated as a suspect. Thinking about it, it is very unlucky.

Cheng Jiangyun asked Guanqi to escort A Yao back to Dali Temple, turned around and looked at Lin Junnuan, "Send you back?"

That's right, she still has to go home, Lin Junnuan couldn't help but froze, and rushed home at this time, if An Shi finds out, I'm afraid she won't have any good fruit to eat.

On the way back, Lin Junnuan kept frowning in confusion, while Cheng Jiangyun walked beside her, silently watching the ever-changing expressions on her face, and found it very interesting, and did not make a sound to break the silence between the two.

"I found that you are very hard-hearted." Lin Junnuan said suddenly.

Cheng Jiangyun was puzzled, "Why did you say that?"

"A Yao looked so pitiful just now. She is also a woman, and I was almost moved by her. You are good, Mr. Cheng. You are cold and cold to others, and you don't know how to be sympathetic."

"It's just pretentious." Cheng Jiangyun commented lightly.

Since entering Dali Temple, he has handled many cases, large and small, and it is not like he has never seen a prisoner in a more miserable situation than A Yao. He would be a little moved at the beginning, but he got used to it as time goes by, and any difficulties will be erased. The fact of crime cannot be eliminated.

Besides, a woman like A Yao seems to be very accustomed to taking advantage of her appearance. What she says is more likely to arouse others' sympathy, and what angle she uses to cry or laugh is more likely to arouse others' sympathy. Every move seems to be carefully calculated, which makes people feel Hypocrisy.

It's not as touching as her happy and angry expression on her face.

Lin Junnuan chuckled, "Master Cheng's words and deeds remind me of a word."

"what?"

"Zhu Gusheng," Lin Junnuan raised the corners of his mouth, smiling like a stealing cat.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't you understand? Just don't understand," Lin Junnuan raised his eyebrows, "This is a term used by foreigners, and it probably describes a person with aristocratic temperament." Single noble.

Although Cheng Jiangyun didn't understand the meaning of the word, and he knew from the word "solitary life" that it was definitely not a good word, but seeing her smile brightly, he stopped asking questions.

Getting closer to Uncle Chengyi's mansion, Lin Junnuan frowned again. After seeing the towering wall, her eyes suddenly lit up, "Master Cheng, your kung fu is not bad, right?"

"It's okay, what's the matter?"

Lin Junnuan winked at him, "Do me a favor and send me in."

Cheng Jiangyun was slightly taken aback, "How can I help?"

Lin Junnuan pointed to the inside of the wall, "Just take me over there."

The hole she used to climb when going in and out of the mansion was blocked by An's people a few days ago. Now, no matter whether she walks through the main entrance or the side entrance, she will attract attention. If Cheng Jiangyun uses light work to lead her over the wall, it will save a lot of trouble .

Cheng Jiangyun was silent for a moment, then approached her ear suddenly, said "offend" in a low voice, put one hand on her waist and hugged her, tapped her toes lightly on the ground, and kicked a few steps along the wall to get better and better. past.

Lin Junnuan only felt that his whole body was suddenly covered by a burst of warm air, and he rose into the air, with the wind blowing past his ears, before he recovered, he was already standing on the ground on the other side of the wall.

Until Cheng Jiangyun let go of her arm, she was still in a daze. It was the first time for a bumpkin from modern times to experience the black technology of Qinggong. She thought it was just an arm or something, but she didn't expect it to be this face-to-face hugging posture, which was a bit exciting ah.

Having said that, I usually don't feel it when I look at it, but Cheng Jiangyun's shoulders are quite broad, which actually gave her a solid and reliable sense of security.

Footsteps sounded on the small road ahead, Cheng Jiangyun approached her ear again, and whispered "I'll go first", Lin Junnuan only hummed subconsciously, and his figure had disappeared from sight.

Now she also came back to her senses, and hid in the shadow of the trees to escape the guards who were watching the night before quietly returning to her courtyard.

That night, Lin Junnuan suffered from insomnia. He kept repeating the scene of flying over the wall in his mind. He seemed to be able to feel the temperature of his breath. He finally fell asleep, but he had a messy dream.

At the beginning of the dream, it was An Shi who tried her best to persuade her to go out to see someone, she had no choice but to agree, and when she arrived at the meeting place, the young man of the other party turned into Cheng Jiangyun for some reason, and when the parents on both sides left the stage, only the two of them were left behind. , Cheng Jiangyun approached her suddenly, bowed his head and blew in her ear, "What do you think of me?"

With a change in the dream, she came to the modern age that had been away for more than ten years, and returned to the moment before she died.During rush hours in the early morning, when people come and go on the platform, she eagerly waits for the train she is going to take. The person next to her offers a cup of coffee. She takes it with a smile and holds it in her hand cherishingly.

Before she had a few sips of coffee, the car she was waiting for arrived, but her eyes were suddenly blurred. Someone pushed her from behind, and she fell to the ground, and was run over by another car in front. Before she closed her eyes, she looked at the last thing. Glancing at the people around him, he fell into complete darkness.For some reason, that person also turned into Cheng Jiangyun's face.

Lin Junnuan woke up in astonishment, and found that she was already dripping with cold sweat.
