Lu Li first explained why he guessed that Wei Zhutou asked for a confession.

"Wei Zhutou is a very upright person, very responsible, very capable, and a trustworthy person who does practical things." Zhenyue's murder case has been contacted, and Lu Li knows a little about this person. He may not be as unique as himself in autopsy or reasoning, but he is bold and careful, and he is very efficient. At that time, the confessions of the Yu family, especially the subordinates of the Yu family, were all asked in his prompt and effective organizational arrangements, and it was because of these facts that he was able to scrutinize the details back and forth, so that the whole case could be clearly understood.

"Such a person, whose duty is to handle the case independently, received the clues we gave a few days ago, and he must have paid attention to the Mu's carriage and horse shop as soon as possible, waiting for Li Gui who may appear. As soon as Li Gui appeared, he would immediately go to ask for a confession, and when he got the conclusive news, he would inevitably visit Li Tong immediately. Lu Li and Shen Wansha walked side by side, motioning for him to look at Wei Zhutou's face, "There is serious progress in the case, but he has no joy on his face, why?" ”

Shen Wansha touched his chin and looked at Wei Zhutou steadily.

Wei Zhutou has a square face and broad lips, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is upright, and his temperament is very suitable when he catches heads, and he can even be praised by people, but if he is good-looking...... It's too against the will. Wei Zhutou has a very self-aware reputation, and after years of training, he has developed a cold and sharp momentum, and the idlers dare not look at him, and now he is stared at by a young young master like a golden blessing doll, he is a little embarrassed, took a step back, and coughed lightly with his fist against his lips.

That's it, Yan Sù's face is not a little less.

So...... How did the little oak see if this flat face was happy or not? Shen Wansha felt amazing.

Lu Li understood the meaning in his eyes, sighed slightly and explained, "Whether a person is happy or unhappy, eyes will not deceive." ”

Walking all the way, just in front of the carriage, Lu Li raised his feet to get into the carriage first, and noticed that the carriage was not very spacious, he subconsciously glanced at Zhao Zhu, who was walking last.

Zhao Zhu's face was very indifferent, as if someone owed him tens of thousands of taels of silver, and his eyes were arrogant, and he didn't let go of anyone, including Lu Li.

Lu Li raised his eyebrows, didn't say anything, and sat straight into the carriage.

Shen Wansha looked at Lu Li, then at Zhao Zhu, and smashed his palm, he understood!

King Ping is such a wonder, the little oak can sense its subtle mood changes, no matter how powerful the head of the guard catches is, it is several levels worse than King Ping, how can the little oak not see it!

Shen Wan jumped into the carriage and sat down next to Lu Li, his big shining eyes full of adoration.

Lu Li didn't pay attention, and was still explaining to himself, "Wei Zhutou wore more regular clothes for convenience when he was on an errand, but recently he was busy with the guillotine case, and he was running around, I never saw him wear a public uniform, but today he wore it." In the past, when chatting, Wei Catcher once mentioned that Lord Fu Yin was very friendly, and never minded that his subordinates were informal, especially the diligent head catcher. He said that he had done this kind of 'disrespectful' thing many times, and he was lucky to meet a good boss with self-deprecation, otherwise he might not be able to catch the head for the rest of his life, so he deliberately wore a public uniform not because he saw Fu Yin. ”

"He came to me on the order of Fu Yin, his eyes were calm and sincere, and when he mentioned Li Tong's name, his eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and his eyes were dissatisfied, obviously not dissatisfied with Fu Yin interrupting his inquiry, nor did he dislike me to join the investigation, but only dissatisfied with Li Tong as a person."

How did Li Tong offend him and frustrate him? I agreed to work with him to handle the case, with a positive attitude, and also clearly pointed out that young master, you have convenient conditions, which may make Li Tong more cooperative, Wei Zhutou's eyes are even more joyful——"

"All kinds of appearances show that he hit a nail in Li Tong's place." Lu Li's eyebrows and eyes stretched, and the corners of his lips raised a smile, indifferent and calm, "I can't think of anything else except the possibility of asking for a confession." ”

Wei Zhutou was slightly stunned, the observation is meticulous, and the analysis is sharp!

Shen Wansha is used to it, Lu Li has used this reasoning to impress him several times, but unfortunately he hasn't learned a little bit until now...... But friends are always so good, and there is a lot of work!

Zhao Zhu didn't get into the car, I don't know where he got a horse, and it wasn't too hot under the sun, so he just rode along.

Lu Li quietly glanced out the window...... It's not distressing at all!

Who called this cheeky man thicker than the city walls to spank him! I didn't know how to apologize after the fight, I hung it for so long, I was given many opportunities, and I still didn't repent!

Ignore you! Sunburn you! Peel off the skin to see if the face can be thinned!

Having said that, after a long time, Lu Li still couldn't help but glance out of the window from time to time, paying attention to whether the one outside would faint from heat stroke.

Zhao Zhu didn't get into the carriage, first, the carriage was too small, even if ice was used, it was uncomfortable for so many people to be crammed into one space; Second, I don't know how to do it recently, as soon as he gets close to Lu Li, this person's handsome and slender body and delicate and beautiful face and eyebrows appear in his field of vision, and he can't help but react.

It's okay to react outside, when there are a lot of people...... Isn't it a little embarrassing?

King Ping actually wants to be faced.

……

The head of the guard catches the responsibility, is diligent and responsible; Lu Li has the ability in hand, and the post-mortem reasoning is unmatched; Zhao Zhu...... Although he has a black face, he is here, and security issues and news channels are all trivial. Everyone has their own things to do, and Shen Wansha said that he must not fall behind, but also give full play to his light and heat to contribute to the cause of solving cases.

The one who can help in front of me is probably the Li family.

Then he rolled his eyes, and he talked to everyone about the Li family.

This Jingzhao Mansion Li family, is a well-known wealthy family, specializing in grain and rice business, grandfather's generation, two generations of steady dìng growth, the scale is not small, if it is not for Yu Tianyi suddenly appeared family, this Jingzhao Mansion business district number one, I am afraid it will fall into the hands of the Li family.

Li Tong has to be in his forties this year, and he is a good hand at doing business, before Yu Tianyi fell, everyone flocked to it, but in the end, the most benefited was this fat man who seemed to walk slowly behind.

A few years ago, Li Tong had the opportunity to be an imperial businessman, but he went around the capital and refused. said that his ancestors had never had any big names, and his children and grandchildren couldn't see anything, and he really went to the capital to mix one and accidentally filled in the old bottom again, and it was too late to cry, so it was better to stay in Jingzhao Mansion and be a rich man, how the Li family developed later, it depends on the juniors, anyway, if it is not strong in his hands, it cannot be defeated in his hands.

……

Lu Li was thoughtful. This Li Tong hasn't read too many books, but his heart is very cautious, and he is a smart person.

When he arrived at the place, Shen Wansha threw a famous sticker, and after a cup of tea, Li Tong personally greeted him, and saw Shen Wansha, who was the most conspicuous and luxurious in gold, and slapped his thigh, "Ouch, my little uncle, which warm wind is blowing you?" Come here, my Li family is really shining! ”

Shen Wansha is very much in line with the image of the young master of the Shen family, the richest man in Great Xia, and he is reserved and amiable with Li Tong.

The two said a few words, and Li Tong saw Wei Zhutou's eyes, his eyes narrowed, and then he snorted, as if to say, 'Why are you here again', which is very unwelcome.

But his movements were obvious, but he didn't show any disrespect, nor did he say anything unflattering, and politely invited a few people into the door together.

Lu Li watched quietly, wondering in his heart what kind of person is this?

Thinking about it, his gaze wandered at will, and unexpectedly fell on Zhao Shu again. Zhao Shu was standing beside him, three steps away from him, and was also looking over at the moment.

The two of them looked at each other, and there seemed to be a fire on the ground.

Lu Li's eyes flashed with anger, I don't know if he was angry with himself who was worried about Zhao Zhu from time to time and had no interest, or if he was angry that Zhao Zhu didn't do anything these days, that is, he didn't apologize by holding his neck.

Zhao Zhu's slender eyes narrowed slightly, and the inky black eyes were surging and undulating, as if there was a storm, which seemed to be quiet but was actually dangerous; It seems to be fiercely suppressing something, and the more obvious the suppression at the moment, the more violent it will become.

……

Since Shen Wansha was the representative this time, after talking a little about business, he asked, "I don't know if Li Yuanwai knows Si Xingying?" ”

Li Tong's family is rich, and he donated his official position early, so he can be called a foreigner, but others call it that, but Shen Wansha's call is too face-saving. Li Tong put down the teacup and looked flattered, "How can you be so polite to the little uncle?" Just call me by name. ”

Shen Wansha smiled, "You are an elder, if you don't want to be outside of this voice, I will call my uncle." ”

"I can't help it!" Li Tong really didn't dare to joke now, what is the status of the Shen family, how dare he let the young master of the family recognize him as an uncle, "The young master is a famous family, and the etiquette is heirloom...... Outside the staff is outside the staff, but it's just a title. ”

"Does Li Yuanwai know about Si Xingying?"

Li Tong waved his chubby hand, "I know." The answer was very crisp.

Wei Zhutou's eyes were round, and he actually said this! When he came, the fat man said that it just didn't cooperate, and when he asked in a hurry, he said he didn't know!

"Aren't you no, know, and way?" Wei Zhutou gritted his teeth.

"Oh......" Li Tong looked at Wei Zhutou and smiled out of his white teeth, "I remembered it again!" "I just forgot when you asked, what's the matter!

Wei Zhutou took two deep breaths and ignored him. Today, with Mr. Lu and Young Master Shen here, he can't make trouble because of his feelings.

"Are you related to him?" Lu Li raised his eyes.

Li Tong looked at Shen Wansha and then at Lu Li, the relationship between the two was ...... How does it look like the latter comes first?

Shen Wansha immediately added, "Si Xingying claims to be your relative, are you?" ”

Li Tong immediately understood that the most important thing to be offended here was the delicate young man beside Young Master Shen with sparse eyebrows and a temperament as warm as jade. Even Young Master Shen respected, of course he had to be even more respectful!

He immediately put on the most cordial smile, "Distant relatives who can't be beaten by eight poles, if they get closer, they are relatives, and if they go far, they are ordinary people." ”

He didn't know that King Ping, the highest-ranking king here, was glaring at the back of his head, eager to burn a hole in him with his gaze.

What did the princess do to watch him do this! Shameless old man! Beware of this king chopping you alive!

Shen Wansha covered his mouth and snickered on the side, he could see that King Ping and Xiao Oak were arguing and making awkward noise!

Lu Li's slender fingers held the teacup, "Then are Li Yuanwai and Si Xingying close or far?" ”

Li Tong had already thought about it in his heart. When Wei Zhutou came, he could still be perfunctory, anyway, he didn't commit anything, he was just worried about setting himself on fire, and it didn't matter much whether he said it or not, but the young master of the Shen family came to the door, and this thing was unusual.

The young master of the Shen family is well-known, and there are few people who dare to provoke everyone in Shangjing, but a case in the house can attract this young master to help...... It's not simple.

He never thought that something would happen to Si Xingying before. Although the man thinks of himself a little higher, but he is a little slippery, these days I don't see, he thinks that this person is unconsciously thinking of some ghost idea, when Wei Zhutou came to ask, he didn't pay much attention, thinking that the government was mistaken, but now think about it, that person should not really have an accident......

He thought for a while and glanced at Lu Li.

Lu Li's expression is quiet and indifferent, his eyes are clear and clear, as if he can see the bottom at a glance, but if he looks more, he feels that there seems to be a water mirror at the bottom of his eyes, bright and clean, which can reflect all things in the world and human nature.

A person can see very clearly, what you are thinking, what you are planning, whether you are lying or not, he can see it clearly.

There was a 'groan' in his heart, his back was cold, and his armpits were sweaty, Li Tong didn't understand why he had been trained for many years, why he would bow down to a young man in an instant, but this was the case, he didn't dare to lie, he didn't dare to hide anything, otherwise he would die the next moment.

Of course, he didn't understand that this was actually just because Zhao Shu was looking at him with the eyes of a dead man, and people always had instinct when their lives were threatened.

So the fact is that it is quite smooth, and Li Tong said that he had been in contact with Si Xingying.

"I have never met Si Xingying, and if he hadn't come to the door this time, I wouldn't have known that there was such a person. He is a native of Jiaxing, cultivating and reading heirlooms, his family background is not too good, but fortunately, he is smart, he studied all the way up and became a Beijing official. But everyone knows what kind of place is in Beijing, and how can officialdom be so easy to mix? With no family background, no financial resources, it is impossible to go far. ”

Li Tong's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Si Xingying is ambitious and ambitious, which is very good, but he came over to ask me to clean up the Jingzhao Mansion business district and take over Yu Tianyi's power in Shangjing...... He said that he had a relationship and could help me to ensure that I would develop faster, and even promised not to ask me for benefits as long as I didn't want to, but I felt something was wrong and didn't promise him. ”

"I pondered, it's not easy to mix in Beijing. Yu Tianyi fell because he hurt his wife and implicated the evil things he had done, but he was a young man who did not have any connections in the business district in his ancestors, and he developed and expanded so much, and he was able to stand in Kyoto, not only because of the in-law relationship with the county lord. In this, there must be a deeper reason......" Li Tong looked determined.

In the face of huge interest attraction, it is impossible to say that he is not tempted, but he has already planned for this life, so he forced himself not to agree.

Moreover, he doesn't trust Si Xingying so much, there are many brothers who have turned against each other these years, not to mention a relative who can't be far away? If Si Xingying deliberately set up a trap to harm him, and he stepped into it, who knows if he can get up?

So he came into contact with Si Xingying several times, and they were still in the stage of testing each other.

"I don't know why he didn't show up again, obviously he didn't talk about it, he should look for me again."

When Li Tong spoke, Lu Li kept looking at him quietly. Li Tong's expression was very natural, he recalled the past very carefully, and carefully analyzed the mentality of the time with them, which can be described as full of sincerity.

He wasn't lying.

Lu Li couldn't find anything wrong, but he just felt that something was wrong, could it be because of ...... Zhao Zhu is standing right behind Li Tong?

Li Tong was sitting, Zhao Zhu was standing, tall and full of feeling, and from time to time he looked at him with special meaning, it was impossible for him not to see it.

Lu Li closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and asked Li Tong again, "Do you know that Si Xingying's pseudonym is Sheng Yu?" When was the last time you saw him? ”

"I know, he repeatedly warned me not to call him by his real name, and when he did, he was very angry, as if he were facing a great enemy. He has a sleek temperament, it stands to reason that he shouldn't be like this, his name is called by someone, what's there to be angry about? Li Tong recalled for a moment, "The last time I saw him was about half a month ago. ”

"I don't remember the specific day, but I remember that it was raining that day, and we met to drink at the drunken Eight Immortals wine shop. There were a lot of drunken eight immortal guests that day, and the afternoon was full, so we asked for a private room. He wanted to continue to persuade me to expand my business, saying that he had met great people in Shangjing, and that he would introduce me to me if I wanted to, and promised that I would not suffer. ”

"In business, even if you refuse, you can't be particularly direct, it's too offensive to people, so I talk nonsense with him and talk about it."

"He is young, a little less pound, I coaxed him, we chatted for a long time, until Xiao Er came over and asked if he wanted to add food." Li Tong suddenly laughed, "When Xiao Er said that the time had passed, Si Xingying jumped up in fright and asked, 'Isn't it dark?' After receiving an affirmative answer, his face turned pale and his body trembled, he was afraid of the dark! Hahaha-"

"I never thought that a man would be so afraid of the dark, knowing that it was dark, he kept muttering to himself, saying that he was going to die...... I've seen him before when it's dark, and he's not so scared! Li Tong tried hard to stop laughing, and patted his thigh with his fat hand, "Business is not benevolent, I can't look at him so pitiful, right?" So I poured him some wine. Wine is strong and intimidating, and sure enough, he is not afraid when he is drunk. ”

"It's a pity that I only know that he is under the pseudonym Sheng Yu, and I don't know where he lives, he didn't tell me, and I didn't ask. He was too drunk, I couldn't let him stay in the wine shop, but I had other things to do that night and couldn't go home immediately, and secondly, I had invited him before, and he said that he didn't want to live in my house, and I didn't want to go against people's wishes, so I helped him go out, found a nearby inn and opened a room for him, and gave him some silver, please take a look at it in the middle of the night, don't have anything. Of course, he didn't like this person either, and it was his duty to send him to the inn and give him the money. What if something happens after that...... Nothing to do with him. Li Tong touched his nose and stopped talking.

Shen Wansha was anxious, "What about after that?" ”

"After that?" Li Tong spread his hands, "After that, it was gone, and he never came to me again." ”

Shen Wansha: ......

Lu Li's fingertips tapped on the table, "Have you gone to the inn to ask about his whereabouts?" ”

"Yes." Li Tong took a sip of tea, "Xiao Er said that when he went to see it the next day, the guests had already left. ”

"What about at night?" Lu Li noticed a little in Li's call, "You gave a reward, did Xiao Er go to see it in the night?" ”

"This ......" Li Tong patted his head with his fat hand, "I forgot to ask!" ”

Lu Li paused, then smiled again, "It's okay." Li Yuanwai still remembers which inn it is, and what is the name of Xiao Er? ”

"Remember, it's next to the Drunken Eight Immortals Wine Shop, and it's the Inn. But what's the name of Xiao Er...... I didn't ask, I just remembered the left side of his face," Li Tong gestured to the left side of his face, "here, there is a mole, black, big, very obvious." ”

In this way, I'm going to go to the Yuanlai Inn...... Lu Li's eyes fluctuated.

"Thank you, Li Yuanwai." He was the first to stand up and say goodbye to Li Daodao, and since he got the clue, he went over to take a look earlier.

Wei Zhutou's thoughts were the same as his, and Shen Wansha was also full of energy, saying that he had to go, Zhao Zhu...... It's useless to agree or disagree.

The group left the Li Mansion and hurried to the Yuanlai Inn.

Xiao Er's characteristics are obvious, it's easy to inquire, and when you ask, you know, it's a sixteen-year-old boy called a plug.

It's a pity that the plug is off duty today and is not there.

Everyone's hearts sank, but Shen Wansha was the first to react, took out a piece of silver and threw it over, "The young master has something to ask him, can you invite him over for questioning?" ”

The shopkeeper took the silver and smiled, "The nobles are calling, it's too late for us to be happy, how can we not?" I arrange the small one immediately! ”

"Wait," Lu Li called out to him, "You can leave this matter to the people below, we still have something to ask." ”

"Okay-" The shopkeeper beckoned a guy to talk, the guy nodded and left, the shopkeeper stood in front of a few people with a smile, "The young master has something to say, just ask!" ”

"Do you have any records of arranging guest accommodation in this store?" At that time, the plug received guests, which room did the guests live in, and it was possible to find out? ”

"Yes!" The shopkeeper nodded firmly, "This month, the bolt is on night shift, and there are very few temporary guests at night. ”

"Great!" Shen Wansha immediately described to him the possible date, time, Si Xingying's physical characteristics, and the state of drunkenness at that time......

Thanks to the small number of guests during the night, the shopkeeper quickly identified two rooms, both of which happened to be empty now.

Several people, led by the shopkeeper, went to the two rooms to have a look.

The first room is sunny, and in the past half a month, five people have lived, and a few people have looked at it carefully, and then came to another room.

This room is in the shade, the light is not very good, in the summer off-season, the frequency of use is not high, half a month, only one person has lived.

About ten square meters of room, only a shelf bed, a few low, a rounded wardrobe, a set of eight immortal tables and chairs, although there are few objects, the decoration is good, there are calligraphy and paintings on the wall, there are ornaments on the window sill, white porcelain tea sets, wild ornaments, there is a thin neck round belly porcelain bottle on the table of the eight immortals, with a fake.

Such a place can be regarded as luxurious and comfortable.

Lu Li walked into the room, first walked around the room, carefully looked at all kinds of ornaments and utensils, and finally came to the bed.

Notice that the head of the bed is a little dark...... He bent down and squinted his eyes to take a closer look.

For a moment, the corners of his lips lifted slightly, "Shopkeeper, can there be spirits and vinegar?" ”

He probably found the first scene of the murder of the deceased.
