Hunting and betting: The black-bellied champion can't be provoked

(41) tit for tat

The next morning.

Duan Yifeng and the others wanted to visit Liu Yitian, so they got up early the next day.

"Xiao Er, I want to ask you something." Duan Yifeng greeted Xiao Er, took out a silver coin from his pocket, and put it in his hand.

Seeing Yinzi, Xiaoer immediately replied with a smile on his face, "Hey, you two, if you have any questions, as long as you know, you will know everything."

"We want to ask you about Liu Yitian's residence." Duan Yifeng didn't listen to his nonsense, and asked straightforwardly.

"Oh, so you wanted to inquire about Mr. Liu. He should be living at Guo Yuanwai's house. I heard that he was invited by Guo Yuanwai to his house yesterday to paint a portrait of Mr. Guo Dashan's soon-to-be-married youngest daughter." Xiao Er When it comes to this matter, he looks very excited.

"Then I wonder if my little brother can tell us where Guo Yuanwai's home is?" Lie Qingchen stopped him and said.

"Oh, this Guo Mansion is so easy to find. It's the last one on the south side of this street. As long as the two masters leave the inn and walk south, they will see the two big characters of 'Guo Mansion'. "After Xiao Er finished speaking, seeing that Lie Qingchen and the two had no intention of continuing to inquire about other matters, he smiled and took the initiative to leave to greet other guests.

Duan Yifeng couldn't help but said to Lie Qingchen after watching Xiaoer leave, "Oh, it's really uncomfortable to wear a human skin mask all day long, and I don't know that we will suffer for a few more days wearing it, all of this will be counted That murderer is simply too hateful and cunning."

Seeing his uncomfortable appearance, Lie Qingchen couldn't help but feel distressed and said, "Yifeng, bear with it for a few more days, I believe we will solve the case soon."

"Hehe, it's okay, I'm just talking casually." Hearing his formal tone, Duan Yifeng quickly said with a smile.

Duan Yifeng and Lie Qingchen found the Guo Mansion easily according to the address given by Xiaoer, and this Guo Yuanwai is also a big man, the two big stone lions at the door and the door plaque of the Guo Mansion are very impressive.

The two explained their purpose to the porter, and after being informed, they were invited directly to the living room. The two didn't care to appreciate the layout of the mansion, and followed the servants of Guo's mansion to the living room after a while.

At this time, there were already two people talking in the living room. Before Lie Qingchen and the others entered the door, they saw a middle-aged man sitting on the seat facing the door. The guys call him Guo Dashan, and it's not hard to tell from his face.

And the young man sitting obliquely facing him should be Liu Yitian, with a tall and elegant figure, dressed in fine light blue silk, the snow-white piping embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns and the jasper hairpin on his head complement each other, and his posture Xianya, with a handsome face and a modest and gentlemanly appearance, this is how Duan Yifeng felt when he first met him. How can you say that this person is a murderer?

Seeing the guests arriving, Guo Yuanwai hurriedly got up to greet the two, "Hehe, I don't know that the two distinguished guests are here, but I'm too far away to greet you, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

"Master Guo, you are too polite. We two juniors came here uninvited. How presumptuous." Lie Qingchen politely returned.

Guo Yuanwai secretly praised in his heart, and then said, "Hehe, I don't know how to call the two young masters?"

"Under Lie Qingchen, this is my friend, Duan Yifeng."

"Mr. Guo is being polite!" Duan Yifeng clapped his hands aside and said.

"Young Master Lie, Young Master Duan, I don't know why you two came to our mansion?" Guo Yuanwai couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"Ahem..." Liu Yitian coughed twice and interrupted the conversation of several people.

"Oh, look, I forgot to introduce you." Guo Yuanwai slapped his head and suddenly realized.

Guo Yuanwai forgot, but the two of them did not, because they were here for Liu Yitian himself.

"This is the painter I invited for my little girl, Liu Yitian, Mr. Liu."

"Mr. Liu, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Lie Qingchen greeted quickly.

Liu Yitian also replied politely, "Young Master Lie, you are polite!"

"Guo Yuanwai, in fact, the two of us came today to have a good talk with Mr. Liu."

"Looking for me?" Liu Yitian didn't remember that he knew the two young masters in front of him.

"Uh... Mr. Liu, look at this..." Guo Yuanwai asked with his eyes.

Lie Qingchen saw Liu Yitian's doubts, and quickly explained, "Mr. Liu, you can rest assured. We just want to chat with you casually. There is nothing else. I heard that Mr. Liu has extraordinary painting skills. I want to ask for advice." (A gentleman: Even if Lie Lie really has other ideas, he will never tell you the truth, lol lol~~~)

"Hehe, it's a great honor to be here!" Of course Liu Yitian would not refuse.

"Well, since that's the case, I won't disturb you young people's conversation, excuse me!" Guo Yuanwai left the three of them to leave as soon as he finished speaking.

After Guo Yuanwai left, Liu Yitian suddenly suggested, "I think, why don't the three of us go to the gazebo in the courtyard and have a talk?"

"That's great, please!" Lie Qingchen nodded to Duan Yifeng.

"Please!" Liu Yitian readily agreed.

(42) Head-to-head confrontation

As soon as the three sat down, Lie Qingchen said straightforwardly, "It was inconvenient to say something in front of Member Guo just now, but the main purpose of the two of us today is to learn something from Mr. Liu."

Of course Liu Yitian didn't believe what he said just now, he was already smart, so he understood Lie Qingchen's words as soon as he heard it, and simply asked, "I wonder what the two young masters want to know from me?"

Lie Qingchen knew that the other party was a smart person, so he stopped playing around with him, "Mr. Liu, have you heard of the recent 'headless female corpse' cases?"

Hearing that the two came here for this matter, Liu Yitian was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and calmly replied, "I have heard about this matter."

"Hehe, now that you know, it's easy to handle," Lie Qingchen patted the table with a smile, and continued, "About this case, I really want to ask Mr. Liu because there is something unclear."

"I don't know what you two want to know?"

"Hehe, as far as I know, most wealthy families in Qi County dress up their daughters and invite Mr. Liu to paint."

"Indeed." Liu Yitian was not modest either.

"However..." Lie Qingchen suddenly changed the topic, "However, all the girls who have been painted by Mr. Liu died in seventy-eight out of ten. Don't you think this is too coincidental?"

"Oh, Mr. Mo Feilie suspects that I did it."

"Hehe, I just think that before the truth comes to light, everyone may be, and I will never prematurely judge who is definitely the culprit, or who is absolutely innocent, and I hope Mr. Liu will not be suspicious and misunderstand. "Lie Qingchen explained politely.

As soon as the words fell, the two laughed tacitly, and then chatted for a few more words, Lie Qingchen said, "We still have things to do, so we will leave first, and I hope Mr. Liu will take care of you." When he said 'Take care', he emphasized his tone, and he gave him a farewell look that seemed to mean something.

"Hehe, then I won't give it away." Liu Yitian got up and said.
