true identity

Chapter 6 Ping An Inn

After two days of examination, Xiao Hei's body was no longer in good shape. The author judged the cause of his death and basically ruled out poison, Gu, hidden weapons and other methods.His fatal wound was a blow to his neck, a small and round hole, from which blood gurgled out. Excessive blood loss caused the heart to beat rapidly to strengthen the supply to the body, but who knew that every beat was accelerating the process of his death , until the heart could no longer pump the blood, until he died.

Going back yesterday to check the case file rewritten by Qinbi, Jiang Yanyi discovered a very interesting detail.

The owner, couple and chef of the Ping An Inn have their mouths covered with sticky rice. They don’t say anything important, and shape Xiao Hei into a waiter outside the inn. He usually likes to gamble and hang out, and he also likes to find another The stubble of the waiter.Fortunately, a guest provided some rich stories, otherwise Jiang Yanyi would have been hard to get started.

Jiang Yanyi came here today because she wanted to find out the truth again.

Fang Yaoge moved upon hearing the wind, walked up to Jiang Yanyi, squeezed Zhao Ci away, and poured a glass of wine weakly and bonelessly: "Did your lord come to the door today to find the murderer?"

Jiang Yanyi sniffed the aroma of wine with her slender hands, raised her eyes and smiled with spring on her face: "Could it be that I can't come to see you because I can't find a clue?"

This concubine is interested, that man is affectionate, and the interaction between Lang's love and concubine's intentions caused the corners of Zhao Ci's mouth to twitch.Fang Yaoge laughed tremblingly, and the cloud of today's share dissipated.

"But I do have something important to do today." Jiang Yanyi glanced at Zhao Ci who was about to leave the meeting, forcing the latter to sit up straight again.Jiang Yanyi got up and pressed Zhao Ci's shoulder. He winked, and the guards called Boss Hu and Zhou Dongsheng to the lobby.Ah San, who was soundly asleep, was imprisoned in the guest room. In the lobby downstairs, four servants of the Ping An Inn had a table just right.

Zhao Ci had Zhou Dongsheng on the left, Yaoge on the right, and a sick Boss Hu in front of him.The remains of food on the table had already been cleaned up, leaving only the freshly poured wine.The scene was weird and the atmosphere was surprising, all of which made him dare not look for Jiang Yanyi who was walking back and forth behind him.

"Wu Zuo's autopsy results have come out. Xiao Hei's fatal cause of death was that someone stabbed a blood vessel in his neck with a sharp object, and he bled to death." To hook your heartstrings, Zhao Ci felt the voice coming from behind his ears, and a layer of goosebumps appeared on his neck.

Jiang Yanyi said while observing the reactions of the four people at the table: "The blood at the scene can also explain this."

"Is it unreasonable to bleed to death alive?" Zhao Ci knew that there would be a shock reaction if he lost too much blood, so how could Xiao Hei not resist.Moreover, the blood at the scene did not indicate the messy fighting marks.How can a person watch himself bleed to death without resisting.

Jiang Yanyi glanced at him approvingly: "Why do you say it's unreasonable?"

With doubts on his head, Zhao Ci shook his head like a rattle.A table full of wolves, tigers and leopards, he didn't want to be targeted by the murderer and become the second little black.

"Where were you doing at the time of the incident, do you have anything to add?" Jiang Yanyi looked around at people with different expressions.

The four of them silently shook their heads as expected.

He had already expected this situation, so he simply asked by name: "Zhou Dongsheng, during the interrogation yesterday, you told me that you had been sleeping soundly in your room that night and didn't hear the sound, right?"

Startled, Zhou Dongsheng nodded after being stunned.

"But in the early morning of that day, my guard found pig's trotters simmering on a low fire in the back kitchen. If the fire was lit at the sleeping time you said, even if the stove was filled with firewood, it would have been extinguished by then, but in fact the fire is still there. It's burning. So who added the firewood?" Jiang Yanyi pushed the wine glass in front of the proprietress to Zhou Dongsheng's eyes.Zhou Dongsheng tightened his shoulders and lowered his head.

"Who else has been in the kitchen?" Jiang Yanyi looked at the others.

The other three shook their heads.

"Zhou Dongsheng, do you have any explanation?" Jiang Yanyi leaned on Zhao Ci's left shoulder with one hand, leaning over to catch up with Zhou Dongsheng's avoiding gaze.

This atmosphere is scary enough, what's even more frightening is that Yama is still leaning on you to confront the suspect.Zhao Ci's heart was beating like a roller coaster, and the close distance of the people around him made him uncomfortable and nervous.What was even worse was that Jiang Yanyi's hair that had slipped down swept his neck, and some even poked on his skin. This secret itching made him shrug his shoulders and want to stay away from Jiang Yanyi.

Jiang Yanyi noticed that she was restless with her hands, and turned her eyes to look at Zhao Ci meaningfully, then stood up as if nothing had happened, and swayed casually behind everyone again.

Zhao Ci: Damn it!What does he mean by looking at me!Is it the next one to ask me, did I say I missed something, but I am not a murderer, why should I be afraid, I am too scary, I want to go home!

Chef Zhou was sweating in the steamer-like environment.

"My lord, I did tell a lie." In the deathly silence, Zhou Dongsheng wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand.The distant pigeon opposite him looked up at him in surprise.Boss Hu was still staring at the table, as if a flower had grown on it.Zhou Dongsheng's hand wiping sweat never stopped. Taking advantage of the moment when he raised his hand, he glanced at Jiang Yanyi: "I added firewood when I got up at night."

"Good cook." Jiang Yanyi led the applause, and then asked in puzzlement, "But why did you hide it?"

"I, I forgot." Zhou Dongsheng covered Jiang Yanyi's menacing gaze with gestures.

"Great!" Jiang Yanyi yelled, and the four of them were shocked: "Then let me ask you, have you forgotten when to get up at night again?" Seeing him nodding hesitantly, Jiang Yanyi said with confidence: "Then The cats and dogs in the kitchen are all fed by you."

Chef Zhou nodded hesitantly.

Zhao Ci was led away by his thoughts, and suddenly felt that there was something to be done about solving the case, but he felt something was wrong.

"In the middle of the night, you went to the back kitchen to change firewood. The wild cats in the backyard thought you were coming to feed them, so they got close to you and followed you to Xiao Hei's room. After you killed Xiao Hei, the wild cats were spotted with blood spattered by Zhao Ci. You took the opportunity to escape. Boss Hu was woken up by the noise, and found Xiao Hei's body and reported it to the police. Chef Zhou, do you recognize what happened this time or not?" Jiang Yanyi sternly said.

"What kind of wild cat? I don't know." Chef Zhou was so scared that his face turned ashen. He waved his hands again and again: "Your Excellency is aware, it's not a villain. The villain didn't kill Xiao Hei. I really just got up in the middle of the night to add some firewood."

"Add firewood and continue to simmer the pig's trotters?" Jiang Yanyi was dubious.

"Yes, stewed pig's trotters over low heat. A customer ordered this dish. There is only such a small stove in the small kitchen. I can only get up in the middle of the night to add firewood." Chef Zhou explained hastily.

"It's just such a small stove, so you get up in the middle of the night to add firewood?" Jiang Yanyi continued to ask.As soon as Zhao Ci heard this persuasive tone, he knew that he was about to start a king bomb again.

However, Zhou Dongsheng, who was eager to defend himself, did not have such ingenuity.

Jiang Yanyi patted the table, and said slowly with a knife hidden in her smile: "Pork trotters that have been simmered slowly all night don't look like that at all. You're lying, you didn't cook this dish before."

Zhou Dongsheng's face turned pale, he sat slumped on the stool, his eyes swept across the three people in front of him and muttered: "No, it wasn't me, I didn't kill Xiao Hei." No one dared to respond.He struggled to get up and hurried towards Mr. Jiang. The guards thought he had mischievous intentions and immediately took him down.

It's ridiculous that he has a strong back but only the strength to restrain a chicken in his hands. Facing the guards with real knives and guns, he has no courage, let alone resist, and just keeps saying that he didn't kill Xiao Hei.

"You still dare to argue." Jiang Yanyi raised her hand, "Take me away." The guards immediately took Zhou Dongsheng out of the lobby.The chef, who was as majestic as a bear in front of people, was like a naughty toddler in the hands of the guards, and was easily dragged away.

The three remaining people were all colorless. If they were killing chickens and monkeys just now, the monkeys would have lost their hair in fright.

It's one thing to be scared, another to have doubts.Jiang Yanyi's analysis was indeed reasonable, but Zhao Ci was still puzzled. If Zhou Dongsheng was really the murderer, and the time between hearing the screams and discovering Xiao Hei's death was so close, why didn't the boss find Zhou Dongsheng on the way over?How did Zhou Dongsheng leave the murder scene?That night, Zhao Ci hurried to the next room. Apart from the boss, there were also a few other guests who had heard the sound and came to see the excitement.Zhou Dongsheng was the last to rush to the little black room.Jiang Yanyi also proved these, so what about Zhou Dongsheng's presence certificate?

Zhao Ci was still thinking about it, while Jiang Yanyi was already sitting in Zhou Dongsheng's seat, picked up the wine glass and continued to push it, and put it in front of Boss Hu like throwing a gun.Everyone stared at the glass of sake with bated breath.Jiang Yanyi looked around and said mischievously, "This is the wine your wife poured. Would you like to try it?"

The crisis was temporarily eliminated, and Zhao Ci breathed a sigh of relief.

Boss Hu tremblingly reached out to pick up the wine glass and stuffed it into his mouth. His hands were shaking violently. In the end, there was not much wine left in his mouth, but the strong alcohol still made him cough.

Fang Yaoge patted him on the back with one hand, and picked up a handkerchief with the other to help wipe the corners of his mouth.

At this moment, Jiang Yanyi's face is blown by the spring breeze, as if she were an ordinary friend chatting with you: "How does it taste?" Zhao Ci was shocked by his face-changing skills. The moment before, he was still a murderous spirit, but now he is laughing and joking with you. Wei teases people.He didn't understand what the official wanted to do.

Yao Ge smiled apologetically: "My lord wants someone to accompany me to drink, my family will never get drunk after a thousand cups, and he just pours it down after a glass. If you don't have fun, you will add to the chaos. Come on, let my family do it for you—"

Jiang Yanyi pressed Yaoge's hand, and looked at Boss Hu: "I don't need you, I just need a glass of Boss Hu. It's better not to drink, because a person who is strong enough to speak the truth, alcohol is a bad thing, he dare not say it Everything that can be said will be revealed.”

Yao Ge smiled stiffly: "What are you going to say, hasn't your lord identified the murderer?"

"Who?" Jiang Yanyi purposely looked at Yao Ge with a blank expression.He asked back: "When did I say who the murderer is?"

Yao Ge froze, and pointed to the direction where Zhou Dongsheng was taken away: "He has already been taken away, hasn't he?"

"Oh! You said him, indeed, he is a major suspect. But I also want to check my statement with you, right?" Jiang Yanyi had a teasing expression on her face, and she compared the gesture that the proprietress made to Asanbi just now—this is It's upright to bribe.

It is also a good thing to be able to spend money to get rid of troubles and open the doors early.The Hu couple looked at each other and nodded happily.

Zhao Ci felt disgusted, and Jiang Yanyi seemed to sense the look in his eyes.Jiang Yanyi glanced at him vaguely.Zhao Ci lowered his eyes, looking at his nose and heart, with a dumbfounded expression on his face.

Jiang Yanyi sneered, and turned her head to look at Boss Hu: "Boss Hu, you told me that day you got up and went over to have a look when you heard the sound of an argument, right?"

Boss Hu nodded: "Yes."

etc?Why didn't he hear the dispute.Zhao Ci thought for a while to make sure there was no sound.

"Did Mrs. Hu hear that?" Jiang Yanyi asked.

Madam Hu shook her head, then nodded hastily.

"What does this mean?" Jiang Yanyi raised her eyebrows, "Where is there something that I heard and didn't hear?"

"I didn't hear it at first, but I only heard him when he got up and woke me up." Mrs. Hu said hastily.

Jiang Yanyi gave a meaningful groan, and joked, "It turns out that the two of you slept in the same room the night the incident happened."

"My lord's words are interesting. We are husband and wife, so it's justified to sleep in one room." Yao Ge said.

Jiang Yanyi waved her hand: "Offended offended." After finishing speaking, she turned to Boss Hu and asked in a soft voice: "Dare to ask Boss Hu, can you stand Mrs. Hu?" He raised his eyebrows, the vulgar meaning was obvious , Boss Hu, who had been silent all this time, turned pale for a while.

Qingyu can allow himself to be destroyed wantonly, how can he allow others to speak nonsense?Madam Hu was so angry that she showed her shrew nature, she raised her eyebrows and said: "My lord, please respect our boudoir matters."

Jiang Yanyi, who was full of apologies and eyes full of smiles, clasped his hands together and signaled to Yaoge: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, but I heard—" His eyes swept over the three people on the table one by one, and he grinned and smiled softly. Sound, I don't mind making the farce a little more exaggerated.

"I heard people say that madam has an affair with Xiao Hei?"

In an instant, the complexion was different.
