Chapter 43: Speculation
Xie Zhen stood in front of the rocks and looked up.
The murderer stood there last night and watched her.
Xie Zhen frowned, walked around the rock, and turned to the back of the rockery.
There are several particularly prominent stones on the back of the rockery, and it is believed that the murderer climbed to the top of the rockery with these stones.
Xie Zhen rolled up her sleeves, reached out and grabbed a stone, then stepped on another stone, and slowly climbed up with a hard hand.
She didn't climb fast, the rough stone stung her delicate hands, and when she got off her feet, she panicked, so she had to lower her head little by little, step by step, and try to stretch her feet.
In the end, he is used to being pampered. Xie Hao smiled self-deprecatingly.
Fortunately, the rockery is not too high, and I climbed it slowly, and I finally reached the top.
There was a candlestick and a half-cut candle poured on the top, and a little or two candle tears fell around it.
This is the menorah she threw up last night.
Xie Zhen walked over to himself, stood at the position of the candlestick, and looked down.
From this angle, you can see the bloodstains left by Xie Fei at that time.
Thinking about her guess last night, she was right, the murderer attacked Shephee yesterday afternoon in the same place where she was standing now.
Xie Zhen unconsciously bit her fingers lightly, trying to restore the scene in her mind.
Xie Fei may have walked here unintentionally, or he may have deliberately hid here, and then the murderer hiding on the top of the rockery suddenly made a sound, Xie Fei was frightened and fainted to the ground, and the murderer came down to attack Xie Fei at this time.
So, who is it? How did that killer know Shephery was coming here? Did she follow Sheffie all the time? Or was she hiding here first, doing something unknown to anyone, and was accidentally bumped into by Xie Fei, and she hurt Xie Fei in order to kill her?
If it is the first guess, then the murderer's original intention is Xie Fei, there is no doubt! If it is the second guess, then the murderer's injury to Sheffie can only be explained as Xie Fei was unlucky to bump into ......
Xie Zhen couldn't help but be silent when she thought of this, in fact, if she thought about it carefully, both guesses were very likely, after all, Xie Fei's stinky temper was easy to offend people......
Of course, if you follow the first guess and extend the idea, then the murderer must know Xie Fei and have had a holiday with Xie Fei.
Xie Hao fell into deep thought, she didn't know how many people were dissatisfied with Xie Fei, but there was no one who had a holiday with Xie Fei and could enter Xie Mansion, let alone those people who had the opportunity to enter Xie Fei's garden to hurt Xie Fei.
Therefore, the murderer must be from the house, and he is familiar with each house and courtyard, otherwise she would not have turned around and ran away after seeing Mama Jin last night.
The murderer knew Mama Jin and knew that Mama Jin was serving by the old lady's side, so she didn't dare to offend Mama Jin.
Who is it? Xie Hao's brows furrowed even deeper, Xie Mansion is so big, if she really wants to find it, I'm afraid she won't be able to find it for a few days, not to mention, the old lady may not allow her to find someone with great fanfare.
Thinking about it, in a few days, Xie Fei would have woken up early, and when he asked, he would know, why bother?
Xie Zhen felt that it was better to wait for Xie Fei to wake up and ask about the situation before making plans.
She crouched down and picked up the candlestick to go down, and when she stood up, her gaze swept casually.
"Huh?" She raised her eyebrows in surprise, only to realize that the pavilion next to the lotus pond could be seen in this place.
Pavilion, Nan'er was there at the time. The third sister hid behind the tree next to the pavilion.
Wait a minute......
Wrong! A thought suddenly flashed in Xie Hao's heart, and her body shivered unconsciously.
――――――――――――――――――――
"Miss, it's time to get up."
Nan'er held the copper basin in one hand and knocked gently on the door with the other, but there was no sound in the door.
"It seems that Miss was really tired yesterday, and now she is sleeping so deeply in the morning!" Nan'er covered her mouth and chuckled twice, and slowly pushed the door open, "Miss, Nan'er is here!" ”
Turning the screen, her smile suddenly froze on her face.
The bed was empty.
"Boom." The basin fell to the ground.
"Miss......" Nan'er muttered, turning sharply and running out of the house.
In the Chonggui Courtyard where the third room is located, the maids were busy with each other, and suddenly saw a maid hurrying with a panicked look.
"Huh?" An acquaintance grabbed her and said in surprise: "Sister Nan'er, aren't you going to serve Miss Six?" How did you come back again? ”
Nan'er's body trembled, her tongue seemed to be shaking, she opened her mouth, and she couldn't say a word, so she had to hold the girl's sleeve tightly and shake her head vigorously.
"Oh." The maid nodded knowingly, and guessed, "Is Miss Sixth bad to you?" Have you been wronged? ”
No, no! Nan'er shook her head, took a deep breath, and finally squeezed out a sentence from her trembling teeth.
"What about husband and wife?"
When the maid saw her ask Liu's family, she felt that she had suffered at Xie Zhen's place, and came to ask Mrs. to intercede, so she said with a little sympathy in her tone: "It's unfortunate that you came, someone just came to look for her, and Mrs. went out with that person." ”
Out? Nan'er was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "What about the third master?" ”
"Third master? The third master wants to come and plan to plate in the study! The maid said.
"Really?" Nan'er breathed a sigh of relief, no longer as nervous as before, and hurriedly took her hand and said, "I'm not a person in the third room now, and it's inconvenient to act, can you do me a favor?" Take me to the study? ”
"It's not that you don't know the way, can't you just go by yourself? What's the matter? You were serving in front of your wife, and who would dare to say that your hands and feet are not clean? The maid laughed and said, "You're too careful." ”
Nan'er shook her head and said: "No, you can't break the rules, besides, if you don't talk about me in front of me, I'm afraid you'll chew the root of your tongue behind your back." ”
The maid thought about it and thought about it, but she just looked embarrassed: "You should have this concern." Originally, I shouldn't have shirked, but I was busy with things at hand and couldn't leave people, so let's call a maid to take you there, how about it? ”
Nan'er thanked her again and again.
The maid beckoned to a maid not far away and said, "Hongling, come and take Sister Nan'er to the study." ”
Hongling? Nan'er was stunned, isn't this the one that the third lady exchanged for herself? I don't know what kind of clever person he is, so that the third lady can't ......
Nan'er was quite resentful in her heart, and her eyes were staring at the person who was walking towards her.
She wore a double bun and a pink pinched pink bud-edged bikin.
The facial features are delicate, but the eyes are too floating. Nan'er pursed her lips: Look at this eyeball rolling around, I don't know what idea I'm thinking in my heart! In short, it's not a good match at first glance! Hum!
