"Madame! Madame, help me! Madam! ”……
A spirit, suddenly woke up from a dream. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"What's wrong?"
Suddenly, I was startled by the sound of the sacrifice, and I looked to the side. Through a layer of curtains, there was a faint light burning outside, but it could be vaguely seen that he was holding a bamboo slip, but he was careful to pay attention to the movement on this side of the bed. At this time, he didn't care about the content on the bamboo slips, and when he heard the movement, he wanted to come over, and he abided by the etiquette, and gradually became uneasy.
"I had a nightmare." I tried to reassure him as briefly as possible, then sat up and leaned back on the edge of the bed, "It's getting late, why are you still here?" ”
"Don't worry, girl, it's just that you have a high fever in the afternoon, so it's convenient for me to pay attention to your condition before I stay, and I want to see if it will recur." When he answered me, his eyes were on the ground, and he tilted his head without any blasphemy.
High fever does not go away......
When I first met Xiao Jue, I also contracted a cold for some reason, why did I refuse to take medicine, which delayed my illness, and I had a particularly bad fever one night. Xiao Jue opened my mouth and poured the decoction into my mouth to save my life.
"Thank you." I whispered.
"The girl's tone sounded a little sad, but was she nostalgic for her old friend?" Sai Yu asked.
"Yes." I'm missing Xiao Jue.
"The girl said that it was after three hundred years of sleep that she woke up again, only to find that the old man had passed away, in this case, I think that the old man did not deliberately leave the girl and leave, if fate is difficult, why should the girl be too persistent." Xi Yu's voice was very soft, if I didn't look at him, I could imagine that the person talking to me was Xiao Jue.
It's a pity that I understand all this truth, but I can't accept the fact that he has left me. I don't understand why, after I fell asleep, the time that had stood still in us no longer sheltered, I survived, but fate took them all away. What is the reason for the stagnant time? "I'm just sad, even if he is dead, why doesn't he even want to leave the bones......"
This time, Sai Yu was silent.
After a long time, I came back to my senses, "Childe's surname sacrifice?" Does that have anything to do with the people who came to the village a few days ago to look for her? ”
I remember that the man who seemed to be called Wandering Yan was a house slave of a certain adult. And when they came to the village for the second time to look for Mi Ji, I met Sai Yu, who was almost exactly the same as Xiao Jue, and Sai Yu knew that Luo Yan and Mi Ji might have a relationship with them......
"This is Zheng Guo, and at that time, it was at the behest of my father that he went to arrest Mi Ji who had escaped." Sai Yu said, putting away the bamboo slips, "My father is this Zheng Guo doctor. ”
"So that's ......" I breathed a sigh of relief, he is now the son of Dr. Zheng Guo's family." I heard that Mi Ji escaped because she killed someone in the house, but I don't know what happened to the house? ”
"Mi Ji is a dancing girl in the house, young and beautiful, and she is very fond of her father, and her father intends to take her as a concubine. However, Mi Ji killed Mrs. Fang that night. "Sacrifice Yu is cautious in words and deeds, and it is simple without too much description.
The dancing girl in the house, that is to say, it was this Dr. Zheng Guo who fell in love with her and wanted to take her as a concubine, but she killed Dr. Zheng Guo's side wife. "That Mi Ji can be executed now?"
"Not yet. My father is not a person who kills innocents indiscriminately, and even if he wants to deal with Mi Ji, she needs to confess his guilt. Although Mi Ji has now been arrested, she insists that she was framed, and her father is also very embarrassed, so this murder is still under investigation. Sai Yu said.
Fortunately, he has not been executed.
Although Mi Ji is reckless, she should not be a person who can kill people ruthlessly, although she is a little clever, but she is really different from the people I have come into contact with in the past, those who are extremely vicious.
"Yesterday, my father was still in the city, looking for people with lofty ideals to thoroughly investigate the case." Sacrifice Yu Dao.
If Mi Ji is really innocent, if she meets someone who is irresponsible, she may really not be able to wash it up.
……
"What's going on?" I heard movement in the courtyard, and I didn't know what was going on, but after thinking about it, I opened the door in my cloak anyway.
The maid in the courtyard was also a little surprised when she saw me at first glance, "The courtyard in front is on fire, and everyone is rushing to see it." ”
On fire?
But then again, what about Saiyu?
Seeing that the people in the courtyard were hurrying to care about the fire, my bad premonition became stronger and stronger, and I couldn't care about anything else, so I walked towards the place where the crowd was boiling.
Flavor...... It's a vague smell of burnt paste.
Very choking, a moment full of snorting is very uncomfortable, in the burnt smell, there is a faint stench, but the smell of burnt is stronger, only to suppress the stench.
The innermost part of the crowd looked like a straw hut.
The ground was full of water, and the fire had been extinguished, but wisps of black smoke were still wafting from the carbonized wood of the straw shed. I'm afraid the fire was just extinguished......
"Oops, oops, ......"
"This ......"
In a loud noise, the house slaves in the house had already lifted the straw shed, and a dozen strong men carried out a burned horse from the straw shed......
Although the onlookers were a little frightened, they sighed for a while and breathed a sigh of relief.
"There's one more!" The house slaves who were searching near the hut suddenly screamed.
After a while, they brought another ...... out of the hut Person. A man who was burned to the ground.
The people around couldn't help but feel nauseous, and they scattered and vomited.
“…… My lord, Mi Ji is gone! ”
The house slaves who were guarding Mi Ji also came to report.
My lord?
The person in front of him is the father of Xi Yu, this Zheng Guo doctor?
"My lord, this corpse is a woman." I could hear the house slave report back to the adult, "Look, could it be Mi Ji?" ”
Mi Ji ...... According to their reasoning, Mi Ji escaped and hid here, and then somehow caused a fire, and as a result, not only her, but also a horse in this grass shed were miserably.
But, no.
It shouldn't be like this.
"It's not Mi Ji." In order to attract attention and prevent them from mistakenly closing the case, I raised my voice and walked out of the crowd and walked directly to the female corpse that had been burned to death.
As expected.
"Who are you!" The doctor asked.
"Miss Huo Xi." Coincidentally, Sai Yu arrived, and while he was surprised that I was here, he did not forget that his father was still standing aside, "Father, this girl is a friend of Yu'er. ”
"Friends? Do you have any friends I don't know! "The doctor has clearly misunderstood his relationship with me.
I was afraid that he would be embarrassed, and when I was about to explain it to him, I heard that Sai Yu had already spoken. "The day before yesterday, the son went to the village of the Xiao family with Luo Yan to track down Mi Ji, and when Mi Ji had no way to escape, he kidnapped the girl as a threat, and hurt her even more. The son just brought the girl back and treated her. ”
"Oh?" He was quite skeptical of Sai Yu's statement, and despite Sai Yu's side, he asked me for confirmation, "But so? ”
"What Sai Yu said is indeed true, and I am very grateful to Gongzi for his benevolent rescue of Huo Xi." I owe him a debt of honor.
"You said your name is Huo Xi? Then what you just said, this female corpse is not Mi Ji, may it be proven? Perhaps my answer made him unable to find any more difficult words, so he asked me about what he had just said.
"Huo Xi has some interest in solving cases, so he has a general understanding. Just now, the son also said that he went to the village with Lord Wandering Yan, and brought back Mi Ji the day before yesterday, until the house slave in the house came to report just now, saying that Mi Ji was missing, can you please ask this person again, when did you last see Mi Ji? "I must have recovered from a serious illness, and my body was still a little weak, but now a cool breeze blew, and I shivered unconsciously, so I reached out and pulled the coat that I had draped over my body.
The lord immediately called the messenger and asked him.
"This ...... The last time I saw Mi Ji was last night, when the little one delivered the food, Mi Ji was still in prison. "The people who watched Mi Ji before are now overwhelmed with fear.
"Miss Huo Xi, what else can you say?" Adults obviously don't understand why I'm asking about this.
"It's actually very simple," I said, walking back to the female corpse, "although the corpse has become indistinguishable after the fire, and under the smell of burning, there is actually a foul smell, which is different from the smell of burning the corpse, which emanates from the inside out of the female corpse. ”
Sai Yu thought about it carefully, and then walked to the female corpse and confirmed, "That's true, unlike the smell of burning on the surface of the corpse, there is a ...... It smells bad. ”
"What does this mean?" The adult asked again.
"Father, if this woman had been burned to death, the smell that remained on her body should have been the smell of her flesh when it was consumed by fire. But now, the woman's body emitted this stench, perhaps because she was dead before it was burned by the fire. Sai Yu got up and replied.
"Already dead?" The adults exclaimed.
"Yes, the deceased was dead before it was burned, and I am afraid that the deceased had been dead for days. Now the weather is still very cool, not like summer, after the death of the corpse will quickly decay, and then emit a peculiar smell, from this basis to assume that the death of the deceased is definitely before the last time the house slave in the house saw Mi Ji, therefore, from the time of inference, Mi Ji disappeared, this girl has been killed, so she will not be Mi Ji. I also stood up, "Moreover, Mi Ji is a dancing girl in the house, and Mai Ji should be a person with a light body and a beautiful body, and look at the female corpse on the ground, although the body has been deformed after the burning of the fire, but if you roughly estimate it, this girl is low, and the length of her arms and legs is not enough to constitute the conditions of Mai Ji, so it is even more confirmed that this person is not Mi Ji." ”
