Chapter 18: The Epidemic

The white-bearded doctor said faintly: "Madam, you have to cherish it, recently Hequan had a strange illness, and the herbs have been in an emergency since yesterday, but the old man specially kept it for Mrs. to ensure that Mrs. has medicine to drink, Mrs. drink it quickly, don't waste it." ”

Strange disease? Since yesterday?

Lin Xiaoyou's medicine bowl to his lips stopped, rubbing his fingers together, and asked, "What disease?" ”

The white-bearded doctor simply said, "Hypothesis." ”

After finishing and a little puzzled: "But it's a little weird, according to the patient's family, the patient is in a state of madness, saying that he is about to become an immortal, and he must double cultivate, etc., and he also reports the other party's name, which is really ......" The doctor shook his head. "It's ridiculous, where in this world is there a cultivator, it's just an anecdote in some romance biography."

Lin Xiaoyou bit her lip, paused for a while and seemed to be thinking, and finally made up her mind to ask, "So, did you have a ...... for the Lu family?" Was it treated by the Izumi Lu family? ”

The white-bearded doctor twisted his beard and said, "It seems that there is such a thing as being told by you, but it was half a month ago." Then he said. Why does Madame care about this, maybe it's just an epidemic, and it will be okay in a while. "After all, those people seem to be relieved a lot after drinking the drug.

Lin Xiaoyou didn't continue to ask when she heard him say this, she drank the decoction in one gulp, and after the old doctor left, her eyes slowly turned to Su Yan: "Lu family." Su Yan also understood: "The Lu family! ”

It seemed that something broke through the ground, and doubts withered in an instant.

Miss Lu's family, eager to get married, the epidemic, ten ladies, and young children...... It seems that something is strung together, and something is broken.

"That's a thank you." Lin Xiaoyou frowned and looked weak. The probe gave him a minot. "It's not respectful at all." Sent the doctor away.

Closing the door, she looked at Su Yan with burning eyes.

"What do you think?"

Su Yan was not stupid, he sat down and looked out the window. "Say whatever you want."

Lin Xiaoyou said his speculation about the ten ladies, after all, the two of them are also grasshoppers on the same rope, if Su Yan is assassinated, he will definitely not be able to escape.

What's more, there is also the hatred of treasure hunting.

Ten ladies are now trying to see the dagger, and they don't hide it, so they must be ready. It's time to snatch back the jade pendant.

didn't know she was so good at planning. Why did you lose this treasure in the first place, could it be that you also lost to Su Yan's golden finger?

Thinking about it, he smiled, and said to Su Yan without a head: "Actually, you are really an absolute golden finger." ”

Su Yan was displeased: "You don't treat me as a human being." ”

But after Lin Xiaoyou said this, he changed his tone. It's a little heavier. "But such carefree days. But I don't know how long it will be. ”

Whether the man broke the rules. So you dare to blatantly calculate the male protagonist?

What exactly are the rules?

I was thinking about it, but I heard a report from outside the door, saying that someone had reported the crime.

Lin Xiaoyou's nerves tensed again all of a sudden. I don't know why, Xu is handling cases for some years, and his sixth sense is always a few points more than ordinary people, and he always feels that this case started in the painting pipa building, and the ten ladies are important people in the painting pipa building, which makes people jealous.

Holding down his heart, he also held down the faint feeling of unease, or he put on a flat expression and went to the front of the hall with Su Yan.

The bad premonition was fulfilled, and it was a murder case.

The informant was a beggar who picked up garbage for a living, his body was tattered and exuded a slight smell, and the new maidservant Qingzi showed a look of disdain beside Lin Xiaoyou.

When he saw Su Yan, he immediately knelt down, and said in a loud voice: "My lord, the little one's name is Wang Er, and he is a beggar on East Street, and this time he found that it was not good when he was picking up rags." After speaking, with fear in his eyes, he looked at a corpse not far away, which was already covered with a white cloth, but the exposed part was naked, which showed that the death was not beautiful.

Seeing Wang Er's appearance, he was stunned.

Su Yan looked at him and said with a serious face: "When did you find out?" ”

Wang Er kowtowed again and again: "It's when the sky is slightly bright, the villain feels a little hungry, so he thinks about where there is food, remembering that there are many restaurants and restaurants nearby, often in the middle of the night to throw some leftover banquets in the alley, I will look for the past according to my memory, it is really a coincidence, let me find food outside the treasure building, although it is leftovers, but it is quite rich, I am very hungry, so I opened the bag and took some with my hands, but for some reason, I found the ......"

After saying that, he seemed to have a palpitating look at the corpse not far away.

Su Yan was about to speak, but he felt that the hem of his clothes was pulled, but he saw Lin Xiaoyou sitting on the side and didn't speak, but his eyes hinted that something was wrong, so he looked at the little beggar kneeling under the hall and didn't speak.

Seeing this, Wang Er became nervous, and his lips trembled: "What the little one said is the truth. ”

At this time, before his words fell, he found that the plain woman who had been sitting beside Master Su raised her head and looked at herself, although she looked weak and delicate, her face was pale and seemed to be very weak, but her eyes were firmly frightening.

"Really?" Lin Xiaoyou suddenly laughed.

Wang Er wanted to say it completely seriously, but when he touched those eyes, he found that he couldn't spit out when he choked on words, he didn't swallow it, he didn't say it, he was so stiff, and the whole person was not good.

Why does an ordinary woman have such a neat momentum, as if nothing can escape her eyes.

"Villain, villain......"

"Well, I'll tell you for you." Lin Xiaoyou knew that his psychological defense line was about to collapse, this kind of ruffian who did not make a proper living, was obviously strong but refused to work and lived by stealing chickens and dogs, she could tell at a glance.

It's too much.

"First, you are not a beggar, because beggars beg, it is difficult to find a place to live in the open air, food and food, you must be malnourished and have yellow muscles, but Wang Er, although your face is pale, but there is oil and water on your lips, and your eyes are not dull, and you do not look like a person who has been starving all year round; Second, you have never been to the government but you can recognize Lord Su at a glance, this is strange, although Lord Su loves the people and Ruozi, he has never shown his face every day, let alone explained his identity to outsiders, and what he is wearing today is no different from an ordinary servant in a family, how do you recognize him? Third, the beggars of Hequan, especially around the Yamen, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu are all recorded, but there has never been you, who are you? Why lie, where did this corpse come from? ”

Lin Xiaoyou was full of words, crisp and neat, and when the knife fell, Wang Er lost his armor.

He kowtowed and said: "The adult atonements, the villain received the money and came to report the case, but there was a middleman, and I don't know who the employer is." ”

While listening to his explanation, Lin Xiaoyou walked towards the corpse, and his hand suddenly lifted the white curtain, and the corpse was exposed in front of everyone.

Everyone in the hall gasped.

Su Yan is the worst. (To be continued......)
