Lu Hua Zhi You Feng Lin Lou

Chapter 6 The case that went further and further away

When he visited Bu Mansion again, the police from the Yamen had already arrived, and there were also a group of people that Lu Xiaofeng was thinking about last night.

"Lu Xiaofeng!"

The bearded and the others were arguing and confronting the policemen, and when they saw Lu Hua approaching from a distance, they shouted out of joy.

"Tsk tsk." Lu Xiaofeng looked at the scene in front of him and said helplessly, "Don't be what I think."

Hua Manlou continued smoothly: "Usually when you say that, things are exactly as you think."

......

——Hua Manlou, are you sure you didn't buy a book called "A Crash Method of Sarcasm in One Month of Magical Skill Training" on the way to the capital?

"Lu Xiaofeng Lu Daxia?" The head catcher of the yamen saw the two coming, and stared at Lu Xiaofeng for a moment.

"Don't dare to be." Lu Xiaofeng waved his hands, "It's just an idler who came to enjoy the flowers."

"Then leave quickly, this is the scene of a murder case, and idlers are not allowed to enter."

......

Recently, Master Lu has definitely committed a crime against a villain, and he has been squeezed everywhere.

"What about these few? They don't know martial arts, and they have brute force. They don't seem to be related to the murder, right?" He pointed to the bearded and others surrounded by the yamen.

"Last night when Bu Escort died, they happened to appear in Bu Mansion, and according to what they said just now, they came here to have a feud with Bu Escort. The servant also confirmed that they had gathered at the door to make trouble this morning. As for not Knowing martial arts, I just learned about it. Bu Daxia has been in poor health recently, and they are large and powerful, and they are young and strong," Catcher said confidently, "Lu Daxia, what do you think I should do?" Shouldn't they be suspicious?"

Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard: "The head catcher said he should be suspicious, so naturally he should be suspicious. But what I want to ask is, has the head catcher ever found the murder weapon?"

"Not at all." The head catcher pointed to his catchers, "But I have ordered to search every corner of this house. As long as they are thrown here, they will not be found. But even if they are not found, it is possible It was taken elsewhere by them."

"Very good." Lu Xiaofeng nodded, "Then we won't interfere with your lord's handling of the case. However, we have met Bu Escort for a while, and I want to go in to mourn him. I wonder if Mr. Bu can make it easier for us?"

Hua Manlou stood behind Lu Xiaofeng without saying a word, and only now did he speak: "Don't worry, Chief Catcher, we will definitely not touch anything at the scene."

"Okay then, you go in and come out quickly, don't delay the business!" The head catcher thought for a while, he didn't want to offend these two people, so he let them in.

Lu Xiaofeng winked at the bearded beard, telling them not to act rashly, then walked with Hua Manlou to Bu Sandao's bedroom.

Last night, after a hasty look at the scene, Lu Xiaofeng came in again, and found nothing unusual, except for the place where the two corpses were lying horizontally, now only puddles of dried blood remained.

Hua Manlou stood in the middle of the room, while Lu Xiaofeng walked up and down, observing the scene carefully.

"Bu Sandao is a very clean and particular person?"

Lu Xiaofeng was reading around a shelf of books he found when he heard Hua Manlou ask.

"Why do you say that?"

"There is a faint scent of sandalwood in the room." Hua Manlou reached out and touched the back of the table, "And there is no dust in the corners, which means that he is usually cleaned carefully."

"But the books on his bookshelf are very dirty." Lu Xiaofeng squatted down and picked up a few books that were spread on the floor and flipped through them. If the pages were flipped because they were dropped, but there were still ink stains on them, or even damaged or missing. explained.

"Unless he doesn't like books." Hua Manlou said, "Or the owner of these books is not him."

"If you don't like it, why would you put it here?" Lu Xiaofeng stood up.

"So the owner of the book is not him."

"Then who are the owners of these books, and why are they in Bu Sandao's room?" The second doubt.

Hua Manlou pondered for a while, then suddenly asked: "Are there some vases by the wall, are there any fragments of porcelain on the ground?"

Lu Xiaofeng looked at the wall and the foot, and suddenly said: "You mean that there were some decorations on this shelf, not books, these books were brought in on purpose."

"Just ask the servants. There must be a special reason for a room with no books in the first place."

Hua Manlou walked a few steps to the side, and stood in front of the door of the secret room that Lu Xiaofeng mentioned.

"If the prediction is correct, the exit of the secret room must be blocked." Lu Xiaofeng followed with a book.If the beards and the others appeared here again because they were framed and blamed, then this secret room must be eliminated for the real murderer.

"Have you ever thought that the people in Sanzhang Village may also be the murderers?"

Hua Manlou turned to ask him.

"Have you ever thought about it?" Lu Xiaofeng put the book in his hand towards him, pinched his temples and said, "I want to know why the investigation of flower picking thieves will lead to murders. Could it be that the flower picking thieves are not taboo?"

Hua Manlou was dumbfounded, and unconsciously brushed the book that Lu Xiaofeng stuffed in with his hand, a letter suddenly fell out, he touched it with his hand, the edges and pages were covered with blood.

"Even if he doesn't care about men and women, Bu Sandao is already 60 or [-] years old, so he shouldn't pick such an old flower?"

Lu Xiaofeng was still complaining, Hua Manlou closed the book, but put the letter into his sleeve.

The murder weapon was not found in the end, and the bearded and the others were brought back to the Yamen. In any case, they were the biggest suspects at the scene of the murder as soon as they appeared.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou returned to the Earth Temple, and Chai Chai's family was guarding the door.

"What's the matter?" Seeing their anxious faces, Lu Xiaofeng's heart trembled again - this won't be a wave of ups and downs.

"There's news about Xia Xia!"

Xiao Chai couldn't help shouting out, and Mrs. Chai next to her had obviously cried again, her eyes were circled red.

"Isn't this good news?" Lu Xiaofeng said, "Then why do you have such expressions? Could it be that the other party has asked for something?"

Old Chai took out a letter: "Hero Lu, read it for yourself."

Before Lu Xiaofeng took it, Hua Manlou's nose moved slightly, and he blurted out, "Lan Xiang."

......

"The first kind or the second kind?" Speaking of which, this is the third time I've smelled it, but Lu Daxia still can't tell the difference.

"The second type." Huaman walked down the corridor, and after thinking for a while, he added, "The ones in Ping'an Escort Bureau and Huachang before were not one of these two types, but the pure fragrance of the famous cold orchid."

"You mean so far, only the Lan Xiang on those two letters is strange, but the one on this one is the same as the second one?" Lu Xiaofeng shook the third letter in his hand.

Hua Manlou nodded, that's right.

Lu Xiaofeng put it under his nose and sniffed it, then opened it to read, before reading, he said quietly: "This time, if there is another poem that makes people puzzled, I will teach him something when he finds out who wrote the letter." Call it open and honest, in a nutshell."

It seemed that he noticed that Master Lu was full of resentment. After unfolding the letter paper, there were only two simple sentences:

If you want to find your daughter Xia Xia, you must first break Xiaoliu's death.

"What do you mean?" Lu Xiaofeng read it over and over three times, and asked Hua Manlou: "The person who wrote you the letter, does he know Xia Xia's whereabouts?"

Hua Manlou shook his head: "I asked Hua Ping and asked him to describe it, but I don't recognize this handwriting."

"It seems that I'm not the only one who will cause trouble, you're not bad at Huamanlou either!" Lu Xiaofeng sighed gloatingly, folded the letter and returned it to Lao Chai, and asked him, "How did you receive this letter?"

Mrs. Chai replied from the side: "When I got up this morning, I was caught in the crack of the door."

Lu Xiaofeng nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

"It's still early, why don't we go to that temple?" Hua Manlou suggested.Since the other party said that Xia Xia's incident was related to Xiao Liu's death, it would be a good idea to ask Miao Zhu who found the body at that time.

"Okay." Lu Xiaofeng readily agreed, "I've been taken away for so long, it's time to go back to the original point, anyway, this is the reason why I came to Xianghe, so I can find out as soon as possible and go back to stop the mouths of fat and thin people .”

Hua Manlou knew that he was plotted against by the fat man and the skinny man, but he just smiled and said nothing.

Although Xiaoliu of Caiyun Seven Girls is not a beautiful girl, she is also a heroine with a red scarf. She has a good reputation in the rivers and lakes. Lu Xiaofeng also had a relationship with her. Don't feel sorry for the unlucky beauty.

"That girl died so badly! Her face was covered in blood, her clothes were soaked in blood, and she looked like she had been fished out of blood. My old man was terrified when he saw it. I ran back to the village to call for help, but when everyone came back, the yard was already on fire."

"Is that fire any different?"

Lu Xiaofeng calmed down, and asked Miao Zhu with a sad face.

"It's no different." Miao Zhu recalled it carefully, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "By the way, the fire seemed to be only burning around the girl, and it didn't burn into the temple at all. Poor old man, I kept begging for Qian Don't touch the mold of the land god."

"Will Wu Zuo come soon after the fire is extinguished?" This time it was Hua Manlou who spoke.

"Wu Zuo came, but as soon as he saw the sword thrown beside the girl, he said it was a Jianghu affair, and quickly sent someone to notify the Shenhunsi, but he didn't move the body." Miao Zhu obviously remembered it clearly.

Lu Xiaofeng looked at Hua Manlou: "The fat man and the thin man said that Xiao Liu's body is complete, but only the bones are left. Apart from no external injuries, there is no way to see where the fatal injuries are."

"It's a powerful fire." Hua Manlou nodded. It can burn a corpse to the bones in a short time. This fire is really weird.

Coming out of Miaozhu's house, the moon has risen and the night wind is blowing.

"Hua Man Lou, do you know the situation of the fifteen women killed in the capital in the past two months?"

The two were walking side by side on the country road, Lu Xiaofeng asked.

"I heard that five were missing, and the remaining ten were trapped in the embroidery building by the fire." Although Hua Manlou was in the south of the Yangtze River, he had also heard about it.

"Not bad." Lu Xiaofeng put his hands behind his back, "But there are still things you don't know."

"what?"

"It wasn't 15 people who were killed." Lu Xiaofeng pouted, "It should be said that there were far more than 15 people who actually went to the Yamen to report the crime."

"How could this be?" Hua Manlou was surprised.

"The homes of a few friends I know have been broken into before, but they set up traps at home, so they were not harmed." Lu Xiaofeng explained.

"So that's how it is." Hua Manlou understood, "You, Lu Xiaofeng, Lu Daxia should help set up this mechanism, right?"

friend?It's better to just say confidante.

......

"Not at all." Lu Xiaofeng hooked the dimple with his index finger, and the cat blinked, "I just asked Zhu Ting for a small favor."

"Wonderful Zhu Ting." Hua Manlou sighed, "It's really safe to ask the best craftsman in the world to help you set up traps in your house, and to be your confidante to Lu Xiaofeng."

......

He shouldn't have mentioned it! ——Master Lu was busy slapping his mouth.

Leaving other matters aside, Hua Manlou said seriously: "In this way, there is not only one flower picker." The experiences of the victimized women are different, and it can only be explained by the fact that there is more than one murderer.

"More than that," Lu Xiaofeng quickly responded, "Judging from what happened to Chai Chai Chai's family and Sanzhang Village, the murderer is obviously not just a simple flower picker."

"Then how do you plan to find out?" Hua Manlou looked at him.

"Start with Caiyun Seven Girls." Lu Xiaofeng yawned, and looked up at the moon that was almost at its zenith—I didn't sleep well for two nights, so I should have a good sleep tonight.

"Indeed, Xiao Liu is dead, but they are nowhere to be seen. The Liangchong Mountain will not be silent." Hua Manlou said.

"En." Lu Xiaofeng responded—will you still sleep in the temple today?Chai Chai and his family are here, will it be a bit crowded?

Unknowingly, the two had already walked out of the village along the country road. The autumn harvest was over, the first snow had not yet fallen, and the sight was deserted, and it was only when the sky was full of stars and the moon was twinkling that it seemed a little peaceful.

"Let's separate here, Brother Lu, I'll take a step first."

Lu Xiaofeng was thinking wildly about where to stay tonight, but he didn't realize when Huamanlou had stopped, until he heard his unique, elegant and not greasy voice filled with the fragrance of flowers in the silence.

"Hey, where are you going?" He hurriedly stopped and called someone who was walking in the other direction.

Hua Manlou turned around and shook the handle of the fan: "Since Brother Lu has a direction to pursue and the night is dark, I will naturally go back to the inn to rest and recharge my batteries for the Flower Fighting Conference two days later."

"You booked a room at the inn?" Lu Xiaofeng said pleasantly.As soon as he arrived here, he was busy investigating the case. He didn't expect so many people from the rivers and lakes to come. When he remembered it again, the inn was already full of places connected to the shop—it was a small county after all, and it couldn't stand such a large crowd. battle.

Huamanlou slapped the fan on the palm of his hand: "Of course it's decided, why?"

"Great!" Lu Xiaofeng walked over, put his hand on his shoulders, and pulled him forward, "It's really sleepy if I don't sleep for two days, I don't need a high bed and a soft sleeper, I can have you spend a lot of money on half a bed , I was so happy that I almost laughed in my dreams!"

Hua Manlou pulled his hand down: "Did I promise to help you?"

"If you don't refuse, you agree." Master Lu took the man by the arm.

"Then you have to pay half of the rent." Hua Manlou tapped the hand that was borrowed from her arm again with a fan.

"...The house is full of flowers, don't be so stingy, your family earns so much money, it is used to help poor friends."

"Are you a poor friend?"

"Poor, the poor can't even sleep in a bed."

"Who made you get into trouble?"

"Don't you just go for it! Who knows the pain in my heart, Lu Xiaofeng? Huamanlou, I'm relying on you tonight, let's save some effort and make the bed later!"
