Chapter 20: The Wind

CHAPTER XX

In fact, Xie Hao still believed in his heart that the Cui family would not kill people, at least not an accomplice of the clan, otherwise he would have done it so obviously, and even told the Xie family in private.

"Uncle, the patriarch is invited. "There is humanity outside.

Xie Hao thought to himself, "Changyuan will come with me." ”

"Good. Wei Qian said.

The two of them followed the little maid to the council hall in the Cui clan.

The patriarch of the Cui clan was unhappy when he saw that Xie Hao had brought an outsider over, but his face did not show the slightest, after all, even if the Xie family did not die, the Cui family owed her a lot, "Uncle brought Wei Langjun here I don't know why?"

"It just so happened that my virtuous nephew was there, so I called over. Xie Hao explained, "The patriarch doesn't know, my virtuous nephew is quite capable, Xu You once praised him for his talent as Di Gong, and assisted the government to solve several unsolved cases when he was in Beijing, for the reputation of the Qinghe Cui family, I don't plan to ask the government to intervene, so let Changyuan investigate in private, if there is nothing suspicious, I will give up." ”

The clan elders were a little relieved when they heard this, and felt that Xie Hao really knew how to do things. Thinking of this morning's discovery, the patriarch was full of confidence, so he said generously, "Thank you uncle for your understanding, Wei Langjun only needs to investigate, we will fully cooperate." ”

"I don't know why the patriarch called me here?" Xie Hao asked.

The patriarch took a letter from the table and handed it to Xie Hao, "When I cleaned up the Buddhist hall today, I found Xie's suicide note. ”

Xie Hao's heart trembled, and many thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

He took the letter and looked at it, and every stroke on it was familiar, and it was indeed his sister's handwriting, but he still said, "This letter must be fake!"

"Isn't it Xie's handwriting?" The patriarch looked solemn, they had all seen Xie's handwriting, in case someone deliberately forged it, they also specially found the books that Xie had copied in the past to compare, it shouldn't be fake!

Xie Hao was speechless, this letter was indeed his sister's handwriting, but he had absolute confidence in his sister! Because it was a particularly unlucky thing for a married woman to commit suicide, whether it was to the reputation of her mother-in-law or her mother's family, and the big family was very taboo, so even if such a thing happened, if you didn't want to be enemies with your in-laws, you would settle it in private and declare that you would die violently.

Xie Chengyu is from a background, everyone understands this, she has never killed herself when the relationship between husband and wife has been unhappy for many years, why did she suddenly make this move?

"A letter doesn't mean anything. Wei Qian opened his mouth to break the deadlock, "This letter may have been forged by others, or it may indeed be from the old lady, but it is very likely that the old lady left a will in advance when she is old, maybe the murderer just saw this point and did it, so as to create the illusion of suicide." ”

The two major families are deliberating, and the people present are all seniors, Wei Qian should not speak casually even if he has some ideas, but he is not such a person who is so rigid about human feelings.

The elders of the Cui clan listened to the meaning of his words, as if the old lady must have been killed by him, and they were a little annoyed with him in their hearts, but because Xie Hao was not present, he directly reprimanded.

For Wei Qian, for death under abnormal circumstances, he must first analyze the possibility of homicide, and only when the possibility of homicide is ruled out will it be considered as an accident or suicide. Since he promised Xie Hao to do his best, he will definitely do his best.

Xie Hao listened to his words, and his heart instantly calmed down, "What Chang Yuan said is also possible, this kind of thing is good to find out after all." What do you think?"

Since Xie Hao asked for this, it means that there is suspicion in his heart, if he doesn't find it out, he will definitely have a pimple in the Cui family in the future, if it is really done by the clan, it is good to ask for the guilt, and the Cui family is not afraid to bear this responsibility, the patriarch thought of this, and said, "What my uncle said is that I still said before, and our Cui family will fully cooperate." ”

Then, he said some sensational words, "Xie is a member of our family when she marries into our family, and she has been virtuous and gentle for the past 30 years, filial piety to her in-laws, and the children she has raised are all outstanding, if she is really harmed by gangsters, we will never tolerate it!"

"That's fine. Xie Hao didn't have the strength to say anything more, so he only replied and took Wei Qian to the Buddha Hall to have a look.

The patriarch asked the two to go and asked a clan elder to go with Cui Jing, indicating that the Cui clan was also actively investigating the matter.

The Cui family has sealed the Buddhist hall, and no one is allowed to enter.

The patriarch took the key to unlock the door and invited the group in.

The paulownia flowers in the yard were uncleaned, and the light purple and light brown were covered with a thick layer, exuding a slightly rotten aroma.

Wei Qian asked where the Buddha Hall was, and went there first.

As soon as I entered the house, I felt that time had stood still, and it seemed that it had always been like this.

There were three doors in the room, front, back, and side, all closed, and Wei Qian turned around and found that the side doors had been sealed. The furnishings in the room are very simple, the case is quite clean, the Buddha is kind and kind, and there is a string of rosewood Buddha beads and incense burners in front of the seat. The Buddha beads are black and purple and bright, and at a glance you know that you often hold it in your hand, and there is some incense ash in the incense burner, but there is no incense.

After Wei Qian took a closer look, he asked the elder of the Cui clan, "Senior, I wonder if I can look elsewhere?"

"Whatever you want. "The old man.

Wei Qianqian made inches, "Then can I meet Cui Erniang and Lin Niangzi?"

The patriarch had just released his words, how could the clan elder refuse Wei Qian's request, "The old man sent someone to call them over. ”

"Thank you. Wei Qian said.

With permission, Wei Qian looked around the Buddhist hall, and then went to the old lady's house, and then looked around every room without saying a word. No one knows what he sees or not.

Cui Qian has always followed Wei Qian's side with a sense of responsibility, and when Wei Qian stared at a certain place, he also looked at it a few times.

A maid had already come to report that Cui Ning and the Lin family had arrived, but Wei Qian was not in a hurry, and he didn't go over to see the two until he looked at the entire Buddhist hall.

"I want to meet Cui Erniang first, and I am not busy meeting the Lin family. Wei Qian said.

Does it mean that you want to separate the two from each other?

The clan elder understood, so he arranged the place for the conversation to the place where the old lady chanted Buddha, and called Cui Ning in first.

After half a month, Wei Qian saw Cui Ning again, and he felt like a different person. When Cui Ning was smoking a strip, coupled with the fact that she was getting thinner and thinner these days, and her whole person was like a bamboo pole, the death of the old lady seemed to hit her hard, and she was no longer naΓ―ve and ignorant in her eyes, and she seemed quite deep.

"You may be seated. Wei Qian said.

His attitude was very casual, just like when he drank tea that day, Cui Ning unconsciously relaxed a little.

After she sat down, Wei Qian said, "The old lady died suddenly, presumably Cui Erniang felt uncomfortable, if the old lady was murdered by the gangsters, Cui Erniang will definitely try her best to cooperate with the murderer, right?"

Cui Ning looked at him suspiciously and nodded.

"Then tell me about the situation when you found out that the old lady was poisoned that day, the more detailed the better. ”

"Are you looking into this?" Cui Ning asked.

Wei Qian's jaw head.

"You must catch the murderer!"

Wei Qian's expression did not move, "Second Lady Cui seems to be sure that the old lady was killed?"

"Grandmother must have been killed!" Cui Ning's eyes were sour and stinging, but she couldn't shed tears anymore, her throat choked slightly, and she said slowly, "The day before that, my grandmother also said that she would teach me perfume, and that she would find comfort in me, and that she would teach me well in the future." ”

Cui Ning had been thinking about this matter when she was guarding the spirit, and it took several days to figure it out, and she firmly believed that the old lady did not commit suicide.

Wei Qian felt the great grief that the little girl suddenly erupted in, so he had to think of a few words that he thought were comforting, "Let's mourn." In this case, you should carefully recall the situation of that day, only by catching the murderer and avenging the old lady can you comfort her old man's soul in the sky. ”

This sentence seems to have opened a door to another world for Cui Ning! She has been immersed in the grief of the death of the old lady and her senior brothers, and she has never thought of avenging them! Now she wants to find the murderer of the old lady, and when she returns to the master in the future, she will definitely go to heaven and sea to catch the villains who killed her senior brothers and tear them into pieces!

Cui Ning's dead heart seemed to be ignited all of a sudden, burning a raging fire of revenge.

Wei Qian saw that the little girl had a spirit, and suddenly felt that he was quite comfortable with people, and he didn't know that he might single-handedly make an extreme revenge girl.

Cui Ning calmed herself down, and talked to Wei Qian carefully about what happened that day, from reading the book to discovering that something was wrong, she told him everything in detail.

"I shouted that no one answered, and I couldn't open the door, so I sat under the porch for half a cup of tea. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, and I started kicking the door. ”

"You mean, the door was locked from the inside at that time?" Wei Qian confirmed to her.

Cui Ning affirmed, "Yes, I kicked two feet and didn't kick away, and my heart became more anxious, so I kicked harder, and kicked until my legs were numb, and the door opened." ”

"What was on your mind while you were waiting on the porch?"

Cui Ning didn't understand the use of asking this, but she still said carefully, "I thought very messily at the time, for example, my grandmother never likes to close the door when she recites Buddha on weekdays, and if my grandmother goes out, she won't tell me or call me to eat breakfast, so she must be inside, and she doesn't open the door with such a loud voice, something must have happened." ”

An eight-year-old girl who was flustered was able to think of so many keys in a short period of time, which can be regarded as quite agile thinking. Wei Qian couldn't help but be impressed by her.

You go on, especially from the moment you open the door, as detailed as you can. ”

"After the door opened, I still heard a clang, and then the wind was very strong, I could only squint my eyes, the wind was full of the smell of incense, I saw my grandmother's dress blown up by the wind......" Cui Ning's voice gradually lowered, "I ran over and saw her pale face with blue and black, blood at the corner of her mouth, and she didn't react when I shouted at her, I went to shake her hand and found it was very cold, so I hurriedly ran out of the yard for help." ”

Wei Qian grasped a few key points, but did not interrupt her memories.

"I bumped into two servant women and told them to go to Doctor Sun, and they both ran away, one to the east and the other to the west, and I went back to the temple to guard my grandmother. I heard that people can't move casually after being poisoned, otherwise it will speed up the poison, so I don't dare to move, I think when Doctor Sun comes, my grandmother will definitely be saved. After a while, Doctor Sun and the patriarch came together, but after seeing it, Doctor Sun said that Grandmother had been gone for about two hours. ”

Cui Ning said everything she could remember that day.

Wei Qian asked, "When you kicked the door in, you felt a lot of wind, so what was the house like after you came in? After you ran to ask for help and returned, what changes did happen in this house?" ―――――――――――――――― everyone reported that the updated chapter can't be read, I don't know if it has anything to do with my insect catching modification, I don't catch insects for the time being, can mobile phone users see it?
