Xia Shi did not enter the room through the threshold, and greeted Lu Qinghuan, and then said in a dumb voice: "Last night I tossed and turned, and I heard movement in the Wutong room, it seemed that she was crying, I was a little worried and came out to take a look, and I happened to see Xiao Langjun coming out of the Wutong room. ”

Xiao Lu? Did he see Sycamore last night? "What time is that, Xia Niangzi knows?"

"It should be the second watch...... Xia Jinhua's voice was hoarse, the speed of speech was very slow, and after finishing speaking, she coughed and added: "Because Xiao Langjun will go to the Chengdong Gambling House every day to gamble money, and he will come back around the second watch, so I guess it should be the second watch day at that time......"

Xiao Lu

Second watch? But the guard of the door once said that Wutong committed suicide in the early hours of the morning, and there was a few hours in between, could it be Xiao Lu's doing?

Lu Qinghuan immediately sent someone to find Xiao Lu.

Taking advantage of the fact that Xiao Lu had not yet been found, Lu Qinghuan asked people to interrogate all the subordinates on duty near last night, wanting to see if they could find any clues, but unfortunately all of them were in vain.

Lu Qinghuan stood under the eaves of the corridor a little depressed, looking at a plaster shadow on the wall not far away, and his heart was indescribably lost. In Xiao Dalang's case, the biggest suspect Wutong died for no reason, and the last person he saw before his death was Xiao Lu, but Xiao Lu had an alibi in Xiao Dalang's case, and after a big turn, all the qiē returned to the original point.

It's like the sun that rises in the east and sets in the west every day, and no matter how it turns, it will eventually return to its original place.

But it is precisely because of this that she is so clueless.

"What are you bothering about?" A clear voice sounded from behind, waking Lu Qinghuan up from his confused thoughts.

She turned around and saw Pei Yuan standing in the courtyard, wearing a dark color coat that made him long and jade, gentle and elegant. He has an eternal and shallow smile on his face, which is obviously indifferent like water, but it makes people feel gentle and poignant in a trance.

Lu Qinghuan shook her head and bit her lip, she didn't want to sue Pei Yuan, she was a little helpless now. She didn't want to disappoint him, she didn't want to throw in the towel!

"Does Mrs. Lu have time at this moment? You might as well accompany me to Wangxian Pavilion to drink a cup of Holy Sparrow Heart. Pei Yuan didn't care about Lu Qinghuan's silence at all, took off the big coat on his body, and draped it on Lu Qinghuan's shoulder, "The weather is cold and frosty, and the wind is strong under the corridor, so don't catch a cold." ”

"At this time, how can I still have the leisure to drink tea?" Lu Qinghuan touched the warm big custard on his body, pouted his lips very helplessly, and added silently in his heart: Besides, an egg custard in Wangxian Pavilion is half a penny of silver, and the legendary unavoidable holy sparrow heart must not be worth dying?

Speaking of Wangxian Pavilion, Lu Qinghuan naturally remembered the incident of eating at the elegant seat yesterday, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and the thoughts that were still chaotic just now suddenly seemed to be enlightened.

She didn't even have time to talk to Pei Yuan, so she lifted her skirt and ran towards the courtyard where Xiao Dalang's study was located.

"Yes, there must be no mistake...... It turned out to be like this......" Lu Qinghuan ran all the way, while connecting things, although there were still some strange places, but she had already thought of how the murderer made a secret room!

As soon as Lu Qinghuan ran to Xiao Dalang's study, he immediately rushed into the inner room and took a closer look at the inner room-sure enough, it was the same as what she thought!

The architectural layout of the Zhou Dynasty has always been symmetrical, but on the wall of the inner room, there are two windows on the west side and only one window on the east side, which is what she has always felt is wrong but cannot find the reason.

Presumably, Pei Yuan deliberately took her to Wangxian Pavilion for dinner yesterday, just to remind her, but unfortunately her mind was on other things at that time, and she didn't think about it.

It wasn't until just now, Pei Yuan mentioned Wangxian Pavilion again, Lu Qinghuan was excited by light and shadow, and then remembered that yesterday on Wangxian Pavilion, he saw that there were obviously two window lattices on the outer wall of Xiao Dalang's study, but one showed light, but the other did not, at that time she swept it over and didn't pay attention, thinking that it was just a light problem, and then connected with the fact that she was shaken by the sunset in the room yesterday, Lu Qinghuan realized that if there was a window, why didn't there be light through?

Then there is only one possibility, this window is blocked!

According to the position of the windows on the west wall, Lu Qinghuan corresponded to the east wall, and what caught his eye was a vertical wardrobe with two doors.

Opening the cabinet door, Lu Qinghuan immediately noticed something different.

Usually people put clothes, they like to put them in a convenient place, that is, as high as people, there are very few clothes in this wardrobe, only a few pieces in the top and bottom layers, but the middle position is vacant, it is really not very reasonable.

On the partition in the middle, there are still a few traces of gray-brown dust, which is obviously not naturally falling.

Lu Qinghuan gently touched the gap along the wooden board of the wardrobe with her hand, feeling that the position of the fingertips touching was a little loose, and she raised her eyebrows - sure enough, the wooden board of this wardrobe turned out to be alive! Carefully removing the plank, the light immediately came through, and it was the hidden window that came into view.

The window is also mullioned, but the surrounding frame has been loosened between the wall and is simply placed on the wall and can be easily removed if needed.

"Looks like you've found a way to make the Chamber of Secrets."

Lu Qinghuan turned around and looked at Pei Yuan, who was smiling as usual, and didn't know what it was like in his heart - obviously he had already seen through the truth, but he had been silent, and even the dots seemed so quiet. If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be grateful for his guidance, but for Lu Qinghuan, who used to be a policewoman, Pei Yuan's actions were like a slap in the face. It's as if all her qiē is in his hands, and this feeling makes her really unable to accept it calmly.

"Haven't you thought that maybe I can't see through this qiē at all?" Lu Qinghuan's eyes faded with joy, and there was a hint of coldness in his words.

Seeing Lu Qinghuan's displeasure, Pei Yuan didn't care, but his tone was softer: "I said, I believe you." ”

Lu Qinghuan was stunned - I believe you...... What a familiar phrase......

When Ah Li and the strange girl were kidnapped by gangsters, Ah Li said this to her. But in the end, she chose to save the strange girl first and gave up Ah Li, and it was precisely because of her thought that Ah Li chose to commit suicide by jumping off the building.

Since then, whenever someone dies in front of her, she will unconsciously think of Ah Li.

It's like being hit by a magic barrier, a magic barrier that you can't get out of anyway.

No matter how much she forces herself to be calm and self-controlled, not to be disturbed, she will still be affected by such feelings, disturbing her thinking and judgment.

Lu Qinghuan subconsciously fiddled with the wrist hidden in his sleeve, the piece of safety buckle, the tentacles were cold, just like Ah Li's face during the nightmare.

Ah Li, forgive me, in order to find you as soon as possible, I have to forget about you for a while!

"I'll do my best to solve the case." Leaving these words, Lu Qinghuan left Xiao Dalang's study.
