little couple

Chapter 27 Close to the truth

When Catcher Wang interrogated the servants of Chen's family one by one, Ning Yin saw that the time was getting late, and left without staying any longer. Qianqian was afraid of Chen's house, so he simply followed, but when he left Chen's house, Ning Yin proposed to go to the residential area on South Street together.

Qian Qianqian has been running around for the past few days, and hasn’t eaten much every day. Seeing that he can finally go home and have a delicious meal, he heard Ning Yin say: “When it’s dark and there are no people, go there once. Let's go to Yang Rui's house and see if there are any new discoveries."

Hearing this, Qianqianqian's eyes were red, he was frightened, and mixed with a trace of grievance: "Can I not go?"

Ning Yin paused, then looked at Qian Qianqian: "Say it again."

Qian Qianqian looked at the calm Ning Yin, swallowed, and didn't dare to babble any more.But he was still afraid to go to Yang Rui's residence, even if his best friend died there.

Qianqianqian deliberately slowed down his pace and moved forward slowly, while Ning Yin looked at his appearance and laughed angrily, so he didn't go away at all, and stood there with his hands behind his back to see how Qianqianqian deliberately dawdled.

Zuo Wuxun left Chen's mansion, and was about to leave towards another street, but he saw Qian Qianqian and Ning Yin beside him, he paused, and took a detour: "What are you doing here?"

Only then did Ning Yin discover Zuo Wuxun, he coughed dryly, stood up quickly, and said, "Has the third son of Zuo returned yet?"

"Just going back, I don't know if you two are..." Zuo Wuxun hid the strange feeling in his heart and asked.

Qian Qianqian's eyes lit up, he trotted slowly to Zuo Wuxun's side, he said with a smile: "We are going to Yang Rui's house, if the third son of Zuo has nothing to do, you can also go with us."

Zuo Wuxun readily agreed, but Ning Yin was full of entanglements. He didn't want to meet Zuo Wuxun, but he wanted to stay with him for a while. He was very annoyed, but he still acquiesced and did not refuse.

The self-assessed Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief, he comforted himself psychologically, if there are more people, he will be more masculine, so he doesn't have to be so afraid.

At the same time, in the Chen Mansion.

"Cough, cough..." The girl Xiaodong lay on the bed, she was covered with two layers of quilts, but she still felt cold: "Xiao Xia, tell me, I am hopeless now, why do I feel cold all the time, okay?" chilly."

Xiao Xia is Miss Chen's second maid, and Xiao Dong is Miss Chen's maid. Because the yards of the two ladies are close to each other, the relationship between the two maids is quite good.

Hearing this, Xiao Xia said "Bah, bah, bah" to the ground, anxious and worried: "Don't talk nonsense, you just have a cold, and you'll be fine with some medicine later, it's okay, I'll go to the kitchen to cook a bowl of porridge for you, drink it You'll be well after that."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Xia turned around, held up her skirt, and trotted away.

After a while, Xiaodong, the maid lying on the hospital bed, was drowsy again. When she was about to fall asleep, there was a creaking sound at the door, and someone pushed open the heavy wooden door. She got up: "The medicine is ready, you can take two sips."

Xiaodong opened his eyes and whispered, "Nurse, why are you here?"

The nanny fed Xiaodong a mouthful of soup and medicine, with a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth: "Xiaoxia is cooking porridge for you, I will bring you a bowl of medicine first, drink it while it is hot, and you will be fine when you wake up tomorrow morning."

The nanny has stayed in the Chen Mansion for more than ten years, and she is very dignified in front of the servants of the Chen Mansion. Hearing that, Xiaodong drank the medicine obediently. When she lay down, she felt her head was heavy and seemed to be even more uncomfortable: " Nanny, why am I getting more and more dizzy?"

The nurse tucked the quilt up for her, and said softly: "It's okay, you can go to sleep, and when you fall asleep, you can see Miss San. You have served her since childhood, and she is not used to being away from you, so you also go to accompany Miss San Go to sleep, Xiaodong."

Fear flashed in Xiaodong's heart, but her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and after a while, she fell into a deep sleep.

The nanny looked indifferently at Xiaodong who was already 'asleep', sneered, turned around and left.

Not long after, Xiaoxia came back with steaming white porridge. As soon as she entered the room, she smelled a faint scent of medicine, which was not obvious. Xiaoxia tried to smell it again, but she didn't smell anything. It's my hallucination.

After walking two steps, Xiaoxia saw that Xiaodong was already sound asleep, she paused, put the porridge on the wooden table, turned and left, and didn't notice anything unusual.

In Yang Rui's yard.

A few days after Yang Rui's death, the book boy didn't dare to live here, so he stayed in Datongpu in the inn for the past two days, and the yard has not been rented out until now because of the unlucky death. It was convenient for Ning Yin and the three to explore the yard at night.

Qian Qianqian stood at the door, pretending to be calm: "I'll be right here waiting for you."

Ning Yin didn't argue, he glanced at Zuo Wuxun who was standing on the side, and awkwardly said to Zuo Wuxun: "I'll go with him to the backyard to have a look."

Zuo Wuxun nodded: "Okay."

Ning Yin walked to the door, grabbed Qianqian by the collar, and strode towards the backyard.

Qian Qianqian walked in a mess, and said anxiously: "Why are you so reckless, wait for me, wait for me."

But Zuo Wuxun, who was deliberately left behind, turned his head and looked at the direction where Ning Yin and the two left for several times, with a slightly complicated expression on his face, this Jiu Xian felt more and more familiar to him.

The three of them walked around the small yard that Yang Rui rented before his death, but they didn't find anything weird, so they went back to their respective houses.

Ning Yin's house was nearby. He stood at the entrance of the alley, watched the two leave, thought for a while, and walked in the opposite direction to them. Chen Fu.

The group of them have been to the Chen Mansion several times. Although they found some small clues every time they came, they never found any big or more important clues, so Ning Yin thought of going around at night to see if they could find anything. What a bigger discovery.

Ning Yin had been to the Chen Mansion a few times, and he almost remembered the general route. He walked to the front of a wall. Behind this wall was the stable of the Chen Mansion. There should be few people at night, so it is most convenient to enter from here.But when Ning Yin tried to climb over the wall, a voice suddenly sounded behind him: "Didn't you say to go home, why did you come here?"

Ning Yin froze, turned around and said angrily, "Zuo Wuxun, why are you so scary!"

After a pause, Ning Yin asked suspiciously: "Didn't you go back, why did you follow?"

Zuo Wuxun was speechless, he originally wanted to go back to Zhu Jianzong, but he thought of something and wanted to ask Ning Yin, but found that Ning Yin didn't go home, but walked in the direction of Chen's house, his heart I thought it was weird, so I followed.

His martial arts are better than Ning Yin's, and he doesn't take the initiative to show up, so Ning Yin didn't notice Zuo Wuxun following him all the way.

Zuo Wuxun asked back: "What did you come to Chen's residence for?"

"We came here several times during the day, and although we found a few clues, we didn't find any more important clues," Ning Yin said seriously, "I found out that there are a few people in Chen's house who have problems, so I made a special trip to see there. Will a few people show their feet when no one is around?"

Zuo Wuxun smiled helplessly, he stretched out his hand to grab Ning Yin, and pulled him away: "Let's go, it's impossible to go in without the owner's permission. Besides, the truth about the Chen residence has almost been found out." gone."

Ning Yin followed him obediently: "Why don't I know?"

"Investigating cases is the responsibility of the government, so naturally they will not casually inform others." Zuo Wuxun said succinctly: "Catcher Wang has already obtained the key from the maids of the two young ladies. They said that the dead second young lady and Miss San each received a clay doll before she was alive, but there was nothing in it, they threw it away, but they appeared in the room again the next day, and they passed away not long after."

Ning Yin said: "This clay doll..."

"Those two clay dolls were bought in a clay sculpture shop in the city, but the shop owner can't remember who bought them. The clay dolls found in Dry Well seem to be some years old. Wang Butou and the others searched for several shops and found them too. They didn't ask anything." Zuo Wuxun said: "But because of this, we all believe that the murderer must be someone from the Chen family."

After careful consideration, Ning Yin said: "Indeed, the person who can not only know the situation in Chen's mansion well, but also put clay dolls in the rooms of the young ladies without disturbing others, must be a member of Chen's mansion, or a top expert. But a top expert will not target a few weak women, so nine out of ten are from the Chen family."

Zuo Wuxun hummed, and he continued: "As for the paper ashes found beside the dry well, it was burned by the nanny of the Chen residence. Several servants of the Chen residence have said that they have seen it with their own eyes several times. The nanny of the Chen residence Every month on the first and fifteenth day of the month, she would go to the backyard or the back mountain to burn paper, but when Wang Butou and others asked her, she refused to say who it was for, and only said that it was to worship the dead."

Ning Yin frowned: "Which undead?"

"I don't know, but there's nothing wrong with her burning paper in a dry well in the backyard, that's why Catcher Wang and the others didn't take her away directly." Zuo Wuxun thought for a while, but still didn't say that he now thinks that the problem of the nurse in the Chen family is more serious. big.

Ning Yin pursed her lips, feeling more and more suspicious of the nanny of the Chen family.

Zuo Wuxun continued in a gentle tone: "By the way, Mr. Chen was worried that something would happen to Miss Chen who received the clay doll, so he invited a group of people to guard it on the inner and outer floors, and nothing will happen for the time being. "

Ning Yin said thoughtfully: "Chen Fu's maid, Die Die, seems to know something, maybe we can start with her."

"Catcher Wang already knows about it, so leave this matter to him." Zuo Wuxun paused, and continued: "By the way, the nanny of the Chen family has already admitted that the silver hairpin is hers, and she said that she misses the second young lady, so she went to After looking around in the second lady's room, I found out that my silver hairpin was missing the next day. It happened not long after I heard the rumors from the maids in the mansion, so I realized that my silver hairpin had fallen into the second lady's room. .”

Ning Yin was happy: "But this is too coincidental."

Countless clues flashed through his mind, Ning Yin felt a pain in his head, and he couldn't help but sigh: "This matter is really tricky."

Zuo Wuxun looked at Ning Yin, turned his gaze away after a while, and said casually, "It's okay."
