ancient criminal minds
Chapter 35
Tang Min talked eloquently: "Lin's maid said she took a cloth bag and hurried out, but when we found Lin's body, we didn't see any cloth bag. Except for the murderer, who else would take it?"
Wu said with a sneer: "Master Tang is so unreasonable. My wife's shoes are stained with mud because I went to the Zhuangzi yesterday afternoon. What's more, which of the servants in the house is clean? Because of this, you can say This lady is the murderer, Master Tang is too arbitrary!"
Tang Min frowned, but Zhao Xueqian said unhurriedly: "When Mr. Tang investigated the poison of hook kiss that day, Mrs. Lu didn't explain your reason. Now, I want to ask again, what is the reason for Mrs. Tang's hook kiss? What are you going to do, where is the hook kiss now?"
Wu-shi stood up while supporting the hand of the nanny, her face was pale, her cheeks trembling slightly: "That hooked kiss..."
The nurse next to her couldn't bear it any longer, she knelt down on the ground, her nose burst into tears and she said, "My lord, our madam is really wronged! That hook kiss... was bought by the madam to kill herself!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Mrs. Wu wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and the nanny went on to say: "Madam is really suffering. The master dotes on his concubine, and beats and scolds Madam. Madam's family background is low, and she can only endure it for the sake of the young master and young lady. Madam is really I couldn't take it anymore, so I bought hooked kisses and wanted to commit suicide by taking poison, but just after I bought it, the master passed away."
Wu choked up and said: "This is a scandal in the family. I don't want to say it myself, but I am afraid that the adults will be deceived, so..."
She covered her face with a handkerchief: "I really don't want to live anymore..." As she spoke, she was about to bump into a pillar beside her.
The nurses and maids at the side hurriedly held her back, persuading her and crying, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
Tang Min frowned: "Since that's the case, Ma'am should take out the hook kiss first, so that you can be innocent."
Wu's sobbing became a little softer, she pointed to the nanny: "Go and get the things."
After a while, the nanny brought a box with the prepared hook kisses in it, and the police quickly counted the quantity, and there were no mistakes or omissions.
Tang Min's face darkened, he looked at Wu who was still crying, and said unwillingly, "It's so cold, why is Madam going to Zhuangzi?"
Wu wiped the corners of her eyes: "I'm not afraid of making fun of you if you say it. Yesterday was my birthday, but thinking about my own life was caused by sadness, so the nanny said to let me go to Zhuangzi to relax, but you can ask The coachman or the man on the farm."
Since she said so, no matter whether she really went or not, they must not be able to ask anything.
Tang Min left the Lu residence disappointed, but Lu Zheng always felt a sense of disobedience. Thinking of Wu's crying, making troubles and hanging himself two days ago, she was able to answer so clearly today. Was she talking about others? The acting school who is talking about the devil, or is it because someone taught her all this today?
Seeing Wu's body still twitching from crying, Lu Zheng left with a full stomach full of doubts.
After returning to the mansion, Lu Zheng was still a little depressed, and couldn't help walking up and down in the yard.Liu Zhi happened to come in from outside the courtyard, saw his appearance, and asked strangely, "Master, why don't you enter the house in such cold weather?"
Lu Zheng couldn't figure it out, so he opened his mouth and said, "Liu Zhi, if you have an enemy and you want to poison him, what will you do?"
Liu Zhi froze for a moment: "Master?"
Only then did Lu Zheng come back to his senses, embarrassedly said: "Forget it, forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."
Liu Zhi smiled slightly: "Master, if a servant wants to poison, he must first inquire about this person's habits, and according to his habits, he will put it in some inconspicuous places, bit by bit. It’s also impossible to find out who poisoned it.”
Lu Zheng fell into deep thought when he heard her answer, isn't that the case of Lin's case?The murderer put the poison on her hair oil, because everyone in the mansion has it, so no one would doubt it at all, Lin does not wear gold and silver jewelry, if Dendrobium is not cautious, I am afraid that it is really impossible to find out how she was poisoned .
But in contrast, in Lu Zhi's case, the murderer seemed much bolder. However, if you look at the two cases together, you can see that the murderer was careful and meticulous. bold.
Seeing that he was only thinking about problems, Liu Zhi didn't bother him, but went back to the room and brought him a cloak to put on him, and then retreated silently.
As soon as he went out, he saw Ji Xiang holding a plate of snacks and looking straight at her.
Liu Zhi was taken aback, but remained calm: "Sister Jixiang made some snacks for the young master, why didn't you bring them in?"
Ji Xiang glanced at Liu Zhi, and suddenly smiled: "When the young master couldn't figure out a case, he asked me the same way."
"What does Sister Jixiang want to say?"
"The young master once had a very good companion named Ah Ren, but unfortunately he was betrayed because of his ineffective protection of the young master. Then there was sister Jinlu, and then... me." Ji Xiang's breathing became heavier, "Liuzhi, guess what?" Guess, is it you next?"
Liu Zhi frowned: "Sister Jixiang, what's wrong? I've heard about these two people. They were both sold because of mistakes. What does it have to do with the young master?"
Ji Xiang turned a deaf ear to it, put the plate of dim sum in Liu Zhi's hand, and said lightly, "You should eat this dim sum, the young master's taste has changed a lot... He probably won't eat these anymore."
Looking at the back of Ji Xiang going away, Liu Zhi frowned again.
In a dilapidated thatched house on Shilipo, outside Beicheng, You Xiaowu rubbed his gurgling stomach, and glanced sideways at Tiedan: "I said, isn't there a steamed bun? Hurry up and eat it." !"
Tie Dan was holding a branch and writing stroke by stroke on the ground. Hearing his words, he didn't lift his head: "No, that's tomorrow's ration."
"Hey! You can do it, kid! Dare I pick you up, are you still in charge of me now?"
"..."
You Xiaowu jumped up and wanted to hit Tie Dan with the sole of his shoe, but Tie Dan trembled but didn't move, You Xiaowu paused, with an unnatural expression on his face: "Okay, okay, you can You've been with me for so long and you still don't know me, and I'm not your heartless stepmother, so I won't beat you."
He put on his shoes awkwardly, saw that Tie Dan didn't speak, and coughed: "...Then what, I'll listen to you, if you don't eat it, don't eat it."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud roar in his stomach.You Xiaowu rubbed in embarrassment, and couldn't help but scold: "Stinky boy, if you hadn't eaten too much fat that day, had diarrhea and collapsed, and spent so much money to see a doctor for you, the young master gave it to us. The silver curds have been enough for us for a long time, so it’s not like we’re going to be hungry now.” They didn’t mention that they went to brothels and gambling halls after taking the money, and they were hungry now because of the reckless spending of money.
Tie Dan stopped, took out half a steamed bun from the broken sieve and handed it to You Xiaowu: "Eat it!"
You Xiaowu stared: "Where did this come from?"
"I saved it."
You Xiaowu was about to tell him, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, their thatched thatched house was blocked by a wooden board, and they didn't have many friends, no one knocked on the door so politely before.
You Xiaowu and Tie Dan looked at each other, You Xiaowu went to move the board away, suddenly a gust of cold wind blew in, he shivered, and then he saw the person in front of him clearly: "Mr. Lu?"
Lu Zheng looked at him with a smile, Changshan Changshui followed behind him, Lu Zheng threw the money bag in his hand: "Brother You, may I treat you to dinner?"
It was still at the restaurant last time, You Xiaowu was a bit reserved, he left Lu Zheng's address last time just casually, but he thought in his heart that a young master would not remember such a small person like himself, he did not expect that the other party would actually come to him up.
Lu Zheng pointed to the food: "Let's eat first."
Tiedan didn't wait for You Xiaowu to say anything, he had already picked up his chopsticks and inserted a chicken leg quickly and mercilessly. You Xiaowu was about to scold him for not remembering to eat, but when he saw him put the chicken leg in his bowl, he immediately burst into words was held in the throat.
Lu Zheng looked at the two of them. Before he came to You Xiaowu, he had already found out about the situation with Bao Zheng. Sure enough, You Xiaowu didn't go out to bluff and cheat, including Tie Dan's life experience. The child who was tortured to death was rescued by You Xiaowu, and now it seems that You Xiaowu treated him well.
After eating and drinking enough, Lu Zheng said to You Xiaowu: "I want to hire you to help me check the news, five taels of silver a month, what do you think?"
"Five taels?!" You Xiaowu almost jumped up, he couldn't believe his ears.
Lu Zheng nodded: "These five taels are just your wages. If there are special tasks in the future that require extra money, I can also pay you another."
You Xiaowu swallowed his saliva.
Lu Zheng continued: "But I also have a request, it's just like spreading rumors last time, I not only need news, but also need you to distinguish the true from the false for me, and even need you to classify the news into different categories, from the surface to the surface. Here, discover the truth."
This is the plan that Lu Zheng has thought about for a long time. After experiencing the baptism of the modern information society, for him, information is everything.He is a majestic man, and he cannot always grow up under the protection of his parents and elder brother, not to mention that Ye Wenguan and Liaochen both know his background, which always makes him feel uneasy, so he decided to start making preparations from now on. He observed After meeting You Xiaowu for a while, he felt that although he was rich and slick, he was generally loyal and had some skills in inquiring about news, so Lu Zheng decided to take advantage of this incident with the Lu family to give him a try.
You Xiaowu didn't think too much about it, he's just a gangster, he has no skills, it's rare that someone thinks highly of him, this makes him feel a wave of heat, he doesn't care if he can do it or not, he agrees immediately.
"it is good!"
Wu said with a sneer: "Master Tang is so unreasonable. My wife's shoes are stained with mud because I went to the Zhuangzi yesterday afternoon. What's more, which of the servants in the house is clean? Because of this, you can say This lady is the murderer, Master Tang is too arbitrary!"
