123 Murder in the Secret Room (2)

As the saying goes, don't do bad things and don't be afraid of ghosts calling the door.

He has nothing to be afraid of.

Didn't you do something unseemly.

"I want to meet your second young master."

The maid realized that she had said the wrong thing, and the maid on the side squeezed her eyebrows, I was afraid that she would bring trouble to the second young master.

You, look, the master won't let you go.

The little maid looked at the other little maid and frightened.

Ren Yongyu saw the second young master.

He sat on the couch in a daze.

"I was sent by the Yamen to investigate the case, and I want to come to see you."

He was extremely nervous, looking at Ren Yongyu, trembling from time to time.

"You seem nervous." Ren Yongyu gradually approached.

"What's the matter with you?" He opened his mouth in a trance, and his expression was gone.

The two chatted for a while, and this second young master had a habit of holding his right hand with his left hand when he spoke.

The worry between his brows was deeply imprinted.

The panic in his heart had already been noticed by Ren Yongyu.

"I want to ask you where and what you are doing at noon and noon?"

Several maids in the house hurriedly stepped forward to explain that the second young master was resting at that time, and they could prove it.

The second young master resignedly hid on the couch, panting, and asked Ren Yongyu if he doubted himself.

"I will ask everyone, and I don't just doubt you, you don't have to be nervous."

He explained: "You have heard it, I am resting at noon.

Ren Yongyu laughed and asked softly, his relationship with his eldest brother must be very good on weekdays, so he is so sad at this moment.

"I have always had a good relationship with my eldest brother, we have played together since childhood, and when the third brother died, someone said that our brothers would also have an accident, but I didn't expect the eldest brother to ......" he thought in pieces. Maybe it's me next.

His fear may have been due to the fear of his life.

The second young master's house and the eldest young master's house are not next to each other, that is to say, if he wants to kill the eldest young master, whether he goes out through the window or the door, he has to bypass the master's door and pass through the stove house and the firewood room.

"You have a good rest, I will ask you again if there is anything."

Ren Yongyu carefully observed the structure of this courtyard in the courtyard.

An open compound. From east to west is the old man's house. The study, the room of the second young master.

The eldest young master's house was originally connected to the second young master's house, but later the eldest young master had an accident because of the young grandmother. So he moved to another room and had everyone move out of the house.

Judging from the room, if the murderer wants to kill the eldest young master unknowingly, then unless he sneaks out through the window of the firewood room. and then jump in through the window of the eldest young master to complete this series of killing processes.

Noon. Many minions work, and if this person is a minion, he can be directly in the crowd and will not be noticed by anyone.

"Sir. I want to ask the eldest young master if he has anything to do with any minion. ”

Master Chen thought carefully, "I haven't seen him have ever had a feud with any minion, and he rarely speaks. I won't offend anyone. ”

The two talked, and the maid on the side couldn't help it. She is Qiu Yue, and she has been serving the eldest young master.

Seeing that she wanted to speak, Master Chen stopped talking, and told her that at this time, she must say something.

"Master, the young master did have a quarrel with someone a few days ago."

"Who is it?"

Master Chen got up suddenly, and his voice became louder.

Ren Yongyu looked at Qiuyue with several maids in the house.

The old man couldn't wait to urge, "You said it!" ”

She rolled her gaze and said a name—Rifle

A few days ago, the eldest young master came out of the house, and Laifu was carrying some firewood to the firewood room, and collided with the eldest young master.

Laifu apologized, and the eldest young master happened to be in a bad mood, so he scolded him.

The crowd speculated about the blessing, and he was called over for questioning.

I was asked, what were you doing around noon?

He said that around noon, he was sorting out the firewood in the firewood room, and then the old man told him to go to Liu's house to deliver some things.

Master Chen thought about it and nodded, indeed, around noon, he suddenly remembered the good fruit sent by the Liu family last time, and now that the Liu family wants to marry, the gift should be returned, so he asked people to send some congratulatory gifts.

Ren Yongyu decided to stay for one night, so he chose to stay in the eldest young master's house.

"This-" Master Chen looked at him, no one would normally want to live in a dead person's house, Master Chen looked at him worriedly.

"Inconvenient?"

Master Chen shook his head, just ......

"As long as it's convenient for you."

Ren Yongyu said that he entered Young Master Chen's house and closed the door.

At night, the maids did not dare to approach the eldest young master's house, and taking advantage of this effort, Ren Yongyu carefully inspected the house.

He carefully inspected the window.

The door was pinned from the inside, so the person must have walked through the window.

Since it was caused by hitting the head and causing death, then there must have been a quarrel or a fight, and the house was empty, so naturally there was no way to tell whether there had been a fight or not.

But if the dead resist, of course, they will make a noise, so that the minions outside will notice.

These things did not happen, and perhaps the deceased was killed unconsciously.

If it weren't for Xiao Mu's urging, he would definitely ask him, why did the person who died from internal injuries have no external injuries? There wasn't even a trace of bumps on that body, which was so strange.

It's late at night, and people are sleeping.

Ren Yongyu took advantage of the fact that no one was carefully investigating.

Sure enough, there was a mark on the window, which made him frown.

Two parallel scratches were deeply carved into the frame of the window.

Ren Yongyu changed positions in the room alone to observe, looking left and right.

The windows are large and it is not difficult for a person to come in.

Why are there two scratches, and they are both on the top of the window, Ren Yongyu had a whim and sat in the position of the deceased.

He sat with his back against the wooden couch as if he had seen the dead that day.

The window was only three feet away from the corpse.

The murderer wanted the deceased to put on such an arrogant show?

When a person dies, he falls to the ground or hangs in the air.

How could he be sitting here strangely?

Ren Yongyu tried to get up, and with a gesture, if the deceased was grabbed by the head and hit the edge of the bed, there would definitely be a wound.

Laifu was sent by the master to deliver things, and he was ruled out of the possibility of killing.

Ren Yongyu was thinking about it, and he had a new idea.

Everyone said that the young master went out and came back at some time.

Then this murderer must be someone who is very close, so he can know his traces.

The next morning, Mr. Chen came to greet him how the night was.

Ren Yongyu didn't sleep all night, but he was still in good spirits.

"Fortunately, I want to ask, who often follows the eldest young master on weekdays?"

Old Man Chen thought about it, and while saying that he was getting older, he asked the maid beside him.

"Back to the master, it has been a tiger race recently."

Saihu?

Ren Yongyu asked him to come over. (To be continued.) )
