Chapter 21: The Secret of the Mansion

Stepping through the door of the room, I came to the house, as if it had spanned a century, the old desk lamp, the old record player, and even the curtains on the balcony were the same as the last century, but there were more modern things in the room, the air conditioner that was about to be repaired, and a set of orange brand desktop computers.

But there is no bed in the room, there is a very large bookshelf by the wall, which is full of books, red-skinned, green-skinned, quite a lot, Jiang Xia looked around, but found that most of these books were written by everyone in the last century, and they were books related to love.

"Little girl, do you see a higher chair around here? It's better to go next door, I remember the last time I came, I used the chair there. ”

The worker put down the toolbox on his shoulder, sighed happily, as if he had run a few miles, and gasped for breath in his mouth, he opened the toolbox, which contained some tools, wrenches, vices, small hammers, impact drills, quite a lot.

Listening to the worker's words, Jiang Xia went to the next door as he instructed.

Next door to the house is a storage room, although there is a lock on the door, but it is not locked, just a separate appearance, Jiang Xia pushed the door open and walked in.

There were old things, broken bear toys, toddlers with broken arms, and the chair that the worker had asked for was placed on the edge of the doorway, which could be seen when you entered.

"What is that, it's familiar. Is it monosodium glutamate, or is it sugar?"

A package of white crystal-like things caught Jiang Xia's attention, the bag seemed to have been deliberately placed in the mezzanine of an abandoned black schoolbag, but a little bit was exposed outside, Jiang Xia walked straight along the bag of things, it looked very suspicious, if it was MSG, what was it doing here?

Jiang Xia's hand slowly stretched out towards the black bag, and he was still a little hesitant in his heart, not knowing what this white crystalline thing was, was it monosodium glutamate, or white sugar.

Driven by curiosity, Jiang Xia directly pulled out the package of crystal-like things with his hands, so a package of white crystals was revealed in front of Jiang Xia, and it was quite heavy in his hand, who had opened it before, so when Jiang Xia picked it up, he left some on the ground.

Jiang Xia subconsciously opened the bag, leaned against his nose, sniffed, frowned, but there was no taste, it was obvious that this was not what Jiang Xia thought was MSG before.

"And what is it?"

She frowned and thought about it, her expression was sudden, until an unbelievable thought popped up in Jiang Xia's mind, Jiang Xia woke up like a dream, her eyes widened, staring at the white lens, and suddenly felt very incredible.

She stretched out her hand and slowly reached into her bag, making this decision, she also thought it through, now, if you smell it with your nose alone, you can't smell it, you can only rely on your mouth.

The lens of less than one gram was crystal clear in Jiang Xia's hand, which was no different from the lens of MSG, which made Jiang Xia think about it again, and then slowly approached the inexplicable thing in his hand to his mouth.

As soon as the lens was close to his mouth, the worker's impatient urging voice came from next door to the room.

"Little girl, haven't you been able to find it yet? No, I remember it's there, do you need my help?"

"No, I've seen it, wait, I'll send it to you right away, I just felt a little headache, it's much better now, I'll send it to you now." ”

Jiang Xia's mouth was hurriedly explaining, but he didn't forget to put the bag of lenses in his hand back into the black bag, and then went to the side to move the chair that the worker wanted to use and went out of the room.

But that bag of things, in Jiang Xia's heart, did not forget what it was, although it only stayed on the lips for a short time, but the faint bitter taste, but still so familiar, what is this? For Jiang Xia, how could he not know, the faint bitter taste, the transparent lens, just like monosodium glutamate, and like ice, this is obviously ice.

That's right, methamphetamine, one of the five crazy drugs in City C, heroin, cocaine, K powder, morphine and methamphetamine, these most unforgivable things, I didn't expect to reappear in City C after only a few years.

The methamphetamine that appeared in this mansion implicated the owner of this mansion and his family, and the change in this matter made Jiang Xia feel that things were not so simple.

"Just put the chair here, thank you, girl. ”

The worker took a wrench, stepped on the chair that Jiang Xia put there, and stood up, the chair was indeed quite high, and the worker standing on it had the same height as the air conditioner, and he could reach the air conditioner by reaching out.

Jiang Xia stood by the wall against the door, her eyes were looking at the books in the closet, but her mind was thinking about the packet of methamphetamine she had smelled just now, she held her cheeks, and her eyes blinked from time to time.

That package of methamphetamine, in terms of weight, should be one pound, that is, five hundred grams, according to the law of the island country of Kyushu, it should also be possible to set a felony, if it is not a death penalty, it is life imprisonment, but is such a huge methamphetamine really owned by Chen Ou.

Think about it carefully, Chen Ou is also a policeman, and he should know the severity of this kind of thing, and if he thinks about it, it won't be him. It can't be him.

But Chen Zhihui is so young, she is only a sophomore in high school, and she has just become an adult, although she looks very ruffian on the outside, but she really doubts that the package of methamphetamine is Chen Zhihui's, whether it seems too abrupt, after all, it is a drug, and if you say so, it is not a joke.

"By the way, uncle, is there anything wrong with this room? ”

For the worker's behavior before entering the house just now, it aroused Jiang Xia's suspicions, she still remembered the worker's frightened expression, with panic, if it wasn't for something that happened in this room, the worker would not have this expression.

The worker stood on a high chair, carefully removed the filter of the air conditioner, and put it on the cabinet on the side, and then continued to be busy, ignoring Jiang Xia's words, and was busy with his own affairs there.

Seeing that the workers ignored him, Jiang Xia also felt bored with himself, so he wanted to walk out of this room and go to other places.

But as soon as Jiang Xia stepped out of the door with his front foot, he ushered in a lament from the worker on his back foot, and the wrench in his hand was twisting the nut on the air conditioner, but he said in his mouth.

"It doesn't matter if you say it, anyway, so many years have passed since this incident, and there must be many people who can remember it. ”

The worker unscrewed a nut, put it in the pocket of his jacket, took a deep breath, and continued.

"About fifteen years ago, I also heard from people in the neighborhood that originally this house did not belong to Mr. Chen, but to his wife, Miss Jiang, that is, the woman in the photo, the family originally lived in harmony, but one afternoon, Miss Jiang was found dead in the villa, which is this room. ”

The worker unscrewed another nut, put it in his jacket pocket, and continued to screw the nut.

Mr. Chen said that she died of illness, but after a few days, there were rumors nearby that Miss Jiang was killed by Mr. Chen, because she was dissatisfied with the feeling of being under the fence, so she killed Miss Jiang with drugs, of course, this is just a rumor, but since then, Mr. Chen has never loved other women, this house is also Miss Jiang's favorite room during her lifetime, and Mr. Chen also retains the decoration that Miss Jiang liked before her death. ”

The worker removed the innermost part of the air conditioner, so the layout of the air conditioner could be seen clearly, he tilted his body, looking at the furnishings in the air conditioner, this air conditioner is still very old, it is outdated, if you want to repair it, it is better to replace it.

"The refrigerator is broken, the others are okay, but if you want to change the refrigerator, it is better to change the air conditioner, but Mr. Chen said, the air conditioner cannot be replaced, this air conditioner cannot be changed for the time being, and when tomorrow, I will bring a new refrigerator and replace it again." ”

After saying that, the worker put the removed things back on and screwed on the nuts.

But for what the worker said, it did make Jiang Xia feel that things were not so simple, if those public opinions were correct, Miss Jiang was really killed by Chen Ou, and the prosecution period was twenty years, and now it has only been fifteen years, if there is evidence, this police officer can still be put in prison.

"What's that Miss Jiang's name?"

With Jiang Xia's question, the worker still had the filter of the air conditioner in his hand, and at that moment, his hand stopped, was there something on his mind, sighed, and continued to do what he was doing, but he spit out three words in his mouth without panic - Jiang Xiaoyu.

These three words are naturally unfamiliar in Jiang Xia's mind, but why did she ask, naturally there is a reason for her, and she may be able to reopen the case of the year and bring the real sinners to justice, but the most core evidence is missing.

After the workers repaired the air conditioner, it was only three o'clock in the afternoon, after all, it was the end of autumn, and the weather was still cold.

The huge villa, the real hollow, Jiang Xia sat on the sofa with a pillow, her expression was a little gloomy, but in her mind, she still thought about the package of methamphetamine in the storage room that was enough to sentence people to death, this may be the family's secret, or maybe even Chen Ou doesn't know, Jiang Xia doesn't know, whether it is better to stand by and watch, or persuade people to surrender.

But after thinking about it, Jiang Xia still decided to go back to the storage room on the second floor to determine whether it was methamphetamine, or whether there was something else mixed in the methamphetamine, of course, this was just Jiang Xia's self-thought.

It was still that shocking place, the moment Jiang Xia's footsteps stepped past the door frame, she held her breath, she knew what she was about to face, it was a packet of methamphetamine that was enough to sentence people to death.

Her heart was fluttering, and her hand slowly reached for the black bag, which was close to the black bag, but she felt far away.

"Did you find out?" little girl......"

The familiar old man's voice hit Jiang Xia's ears, but before Jiang Xia could come back to his senses, a thick iron rod hit Jiang Xia on the back of the head, and the familiar sly laughter sounded in Jiang Xia's ears, and before he could turn around and take a look, Jiang Xia fainted on the cold ground.
