Yin Seventeen interrupted: "I am not from the Qingcheng Yamen, my name is Yin Seventeen, this is Ye Ziluo, Zeng Pinzheng." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Pretending to be an official is guilty, and she doesn't want to be blamed in a daze.

Ming Lu was slightly stunned: "No...... Bad master? ”

Then why do you force him like that?!

Minglu was furious.

Yin Qiqi saw that Ming Lu's face changed immediately, obviously still holding a grudge against her for forcing him to ask him about it, and he originally endured it, but when he heard that the three of her were not officials, he didn't want to bear it:

"Although the three of us are not official errands, but the magistrate asked us to help investigate the case of human skin and corpses, so if there is anything to explain, I advise you to be honest."

Ming Lu's tense face relaxed, and his face was full of surprise:

"Lord Zhixian asked you to investigate the case? Are you the three outsiders who stayed at the inn? ”

Jiang Xiangliu's eyes also raised from staring at the abnormal Xiao Daguan, and the squatting body stood up, and exclaimed:

"It turns out that the golden shopkeeper is talking about you!"

I've heard that things are much easier.

Because he was forced to ask by Yin Seventeen, Ming Lu was a little frightened by Yin Seventeen's questioning in his heart, and he always felt that the next sentence would hit his death hole at any time.

Jiang Xiangliu's attitude was much better, and Ming Lu, who was sitting alone at the table next to him, explained to Yin Seventeen, who was obviously the head of the three:

"Since that person was executed thirteen years ago, Ming Lu has been extremely sensitive to that person's name, not to mention it, even hearing it can stimulate Ming Lu, so over the years, no one in the neighborhood who knows the beginning and end will not mention that person's name in front of Ming Lu!"

That person was referring to Wang Erzhu.

From the mouth of Minglu's wife, Yin Seventeen has heard of Minglu's taboo, which will listen to Jiang Xiangliu's words, and even feel that Minglu's psychology of being extremely jealous of Wang Erzhu's name should be related to the corpse crushing case of the year.

This is especially important.

No matter what, no matter what Ming Lu avoids, she has to ask and figure it out.

You can't give up investigating the things of the year because Minglu is alone.

Jiang Xiangliu understood what Yin Seventeen meant, and he could also understand Yin Seventeen's position in doing so, after all, it was the Yamen who invited him to investigate the case of human skin and corpses, but he didn't understand one thing:

"Yin Gongzi, listen to what you said, what you mean is that the current human skin and corpse shredding case is related to the corpse shredding case back then, so you want to know more about that person back then, but ...... But how can this be related? The two cases are separated by thirteen years, and that person has already been punished, how can it be related? ”

Yin Qiqi glanced at Ming Lu who was sitting alone at another table with his hands on his sleeves, there were four people sitting around the table on her side, she and Jiang Xiangliu's words, Ming Lu could also hear it, when Jiang Xiangliu began to explain for Ming Lu, Ming Lu was not abnormal, and he didn't even react, but his lowered eyes dimmed.

Listening to what she said to Jiang Xiangliu again, she also paid attention to Ming Lu's reaction during the period, and really found that as long as the name Wang Erzhu was not mentioned in the words, Ming Lu did not react, everything was as usual, and she couldn't imagine that the person who was so frightened that she lost control would be Ming Lu at this moment.

Yin Seventeen withdrew his gaze from Ming Lu, and his eyes fell on the innermost table behind the two tables.

Xiao Daguan was huddled at the bottom of the table, holding his head in his hands, his eyes buried between his legs as he sat bent, looking trembling.

Yin Seventeen did not respond, but glanced at Ming Lu and the abnormal Xiao Daguan back and forth, and Jiang Xiangliu said again:

"If Yin Gongzi, Ye Gongzi and Zeng Xiaogongzi have time and are willing to listen, then please move to the three of you, and I will carefully talk to the three of us about the situation of our few people back then."

Jiang Xiangliu's question, Yin Seventeen didn't want to go back, but she just felt that there was probably a connection between the two murders that were thirteen years apart, but specifically, she couldn't say it casually now.

After all, people's words are terrifying, Jiang Xiangliu and Ming Lu met the murderer Wang Erzhu and the deceased Xiao Yatou, maybe there is something else to do with it.

Listening to Jiang Xiangliu take the initiative to say that he was willing to talk about the things of the year, Yin Seventeen agreed:

"Then let's go inside and talk about it, as for Minglu...... Think about it, there are some things that you can't just run away from, one day, you have to face it, and this day, now is the time! ”

Ming Lu didn't move, just when Yin Seventeen and the three people got up and wanted to go inside with Jiang Xiangliu, he suddenly opened his mouth:

"I know you're right...... Give me some time......"

Yin Seventeen paused: "I hope this time won't be too long, after all, such a murderous murderer doesn't wait for anyone." ”

Minglu said with difficulty: "I know ......"

The dumpling shop is not big, not deep, basically divided into two parts, the front of the shop to greet guests, a few tables are placed to be full, and the back is a compartment, which is considered the inner room, which is the place used by Ming Lu to steam dumplings.

In addition to a complete set of stoves, some steamers, knives, plates and other utensils, there is also a log table, and two low tables.

On weekdays, Ming Lu is alone, and at most, when business is good, his wife comes to help.

Yin Seventeen occupied one, Jiang Xiangliu didn't dare to sit on the other one, and let the dwarf want to let the leaves sit down, but Zeng Lu Zheng returned to the room early and carried a round stool on the left and right, which was the stool for entertaining guests outside.

The inner room is very narrow, so that two low tables and two round stools occupy half full.

None of the four had the heart to think about anything else, and as soon as they sat down, Yin Seventeen motioned to Jiang Xiangliu to start talking.

Jiang Xiangliu sat on the low table, at first it seemed a little difficult, his mouth opened and closed a few times, but he couldn't say a word.

Yin Seventeen is not in a hurry.

After thirteen years like this, it is a matter of human life and childhood friendship, and it is normal for Jiang Xiangliu to have a little difficulty opening his mouth.

As for the fact that Jiang Xiangliu and Ming Lu were childhood friends, she still listened to the situation when Wei Hai sent him to the dumpling shop to inquire about the neighbors.

The officials who went to know about it also knew very little, in addition to finding out that there was a childhood friendship between Minglu and Jiang Xiangliu, he also mentioned a few people other than these two people in passing.

Among them, there is Xiao Daguan.

It's just that I didn't expect this to be the case when I met Xiao Daguan.

Before Jiang Xiangliu could speak, Yin Seventeen didn't urge, but only began to ask something else:

"How long has Officer Xiao been like this?"

Jiang Xiangliu seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and it also seemed to have found an exit in the chaos:

"It's been an hour or so, and when I passed out, I thought I would be fine when I woke up, but I didn't expect ......"

Unexpectedly, Xiao Daguan's situation was even worse.

Zeng Pinzheng was a little impatient, but the leaves fell the same as Yin Seventeen, and he understood Jiang Xiangliu's mood a little:

"Why don't Boss Jiang talk about this matter first!"

This matter is easy to say, Jiang Xiangliu nodded quickly, and talked about the part where he met Xiao Daguan in front of his incense candle shop, and talked about Xiao Daguan fainting in the middle of the road in front of the dumpling shop.

Yin Qiqi listened to a few questions in his heart, but this will first listen to the affairs of Jiang Xiangliu and the others.

Before and after Jiang Xiangliu finished talking about Xiao Daguan's abnormality, Yin Seventeen did not wait for Jiang Xiangliu to delay the time, but changed to the form of questions and answers.

She asked, and he replied.

The first question is, who were the people who had a relationship with Wang Erzhu back then?

Not to mention that Ming Luji heard the name Wang Erzhu, Jiang Xiangliu was actually very taboo, so when he talked about Wang Erzhu next, he always tried to avoid it.

Jiang Xiangliu, Ming Lu, Xiao Daguan, Xiao Yatou, Wang Erzhu, Jiang Fulin, and Tian Luli, the seven of them are childhood friends who grew up together and have the same smell.

Seven people, two of them, Yin Seventeen has not heard:

"This Jiang Fulin and Tian Luli also live around here?"

Jiang Xiangliu said: "Originally, they all lived in Guwei Street, but later after the corpse crushing case, Fu Lin and Lu Li left Qingcheng one after another, Fu Lin heard that the family moved to Kaifeng County, and the Lu Li family heard that they went to Yanjing to join their relatives in the clan, I don't know who it is." ”

Yin Seventeen said: "Kaifeng County? ”

Ye Ziluo said: "It's the county where Xu Zhixian is located, if we want to check this Jiang Fulin, we can go to Xu Zhixian to help." ”

After a pause, he added:

"If you don't want to go through Xu Zhi County, you can also find out."

As long as Yin Seventeen is unwilling to trouble Xu Minghui, then Ye Ziluo can also let the Ye family in Qingcheng go to Kaifeng County again to investigate Jiang Fulin.

The meaning of the leaf falling, Yin Seventeen and Zeng Pinzheng can understand it.

Jiang Xiangliu was a little confused, but Xu Minghui, the magistrate of Kaifeng County, had heard of it:

"Do you know the magistrate of Kaifeng County?"

Yin Seventeen nodded: "By chance, although we haven't met, we can recognize each other." ”

Jiang Xiangliu hadn't heard of the deeds of Yin Seventeen and Three in Jiebei County, so he naturally couldn't think of anything, and felt that Yin Seventeen and Three People could ask Weizhi County to invite them to help investigate the case, and gave a death order to the golden shopkeeper who came and went to the inn, saying that the three of them would be treated as guests and entertained, and there must be no mistake!

Thinking about it like this, and hearing that Yin Seventeen and the three people actually knew the magistrate of Kaifeng County, Jiang Xiangliu felt more and more that the background of the three of them was not simple.

What happened next, Jiang Xiangliu wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and narrated, and she didn't dare to play tricks in the slightest.

Where I originally wanted to hide, I no longer dare to hide it.

But there are some words, Jiang Xiangliu was worried in his heart, and he couldn't help but refute it first:

"That...... Why do you want to check Fulin? The case had nothing to do with us! It's just that we happen to be friends between the murderer and the deceased! ”

Yin Seventeen said: "Boss Jiang doesn't have to be nervous, we will ask you about what happened back then, and we just want to see if we can learn the clues of the current human skin and corpse case, two of the seven of you died, and now there are five people left, and two of them are far away, except for Ming Lu and Xiao Daguan, who have heart disease, Boss Jiang can tell us a thing or two about the events of the year." ”

Although Yin Seventeen made Jiang Xiangliu not have to be nervous, he was still a little flustered:

"I, I, I'm not nervous! I just feel that the murder case today really has nothing to do with us, and the case back then has caused a lot of trouble for the rest of us......"

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiangliu glanced outside.

There was no door panel between the inner and outer rooms, only a curtain hung down to separate them, and the curtain was hung high and not lowered, which did not hinder the four people sitting in the center of the inner door looking out at the situation of Minglu outside.

Jiang Xiangliu looked at it like this, and saw that Minglu still maintained his original posture.

That posture has been on for more than a quarter of an hour, and I don't know how to change it, so I must be stiff.

Sighing in his heart, Jiang Xiangliu retracted his gaze, turned around and sighed to Yin Seventeen and Three:

"It's also ironic to say, although I, Minglu and Daguan are still in Qingcheng, and we all live in the same place, and there has been no change, but in the past thirteen years, the three of us have obviously only been separated by one street, but since the case of the corpse crushing case was closed, we have never said a word, and even occasionally accidentally met, they just went their own ways, and they didn't even give each other a look!"

But because of the human skin and corpse case that happened half a month ago, the two were surprisingly reconciled!

Not to mention, it's kind of ironic.

Zeng Pinzheng asked Jiang Xiangliu: "Although you were friends of the murderer and the deceased back then, didn't you have nothing to do with the corpse shredding case?" How could the two of them leave their hometown? The three of them fell out and didn't get along? ”

Jiang Xiang said: "It's not a fallout...... At that time, I don't know why, I listened to the closing statement of the corpse shredding case in the Yamen Court, and I listened to it ...... Hearing that the man had made a decision, the five of us were already strangers when we left the yamen. ”

Unlike Jiang Fulin and Tian Luli, who still have relatives who can take refuge in other places, Jiang Xiangliu, Zeng Pinzheng, and Xiao Daguan have nowhere to go.

There is no extra silver taels, which can be used for the family to move another property and land.

Especially Xiao Daguan, who is the poorest of the three.

Not to mention that the family moved out of Qingcheng, even if they want to rent another house, they can't afford to rent it.

And the small corner of Linxi where Xiao Daguan lives with his old mother now, because next door is Xiao Yatou's family, who has been killed for thirteen years, so Xiao Daguan's family rents there, and the rent is the cheapest.

It's not that the landlord doesn't want to increase the rent, it's really can't.

In the entire Qing City, except for Xiao Daguan's mother and son, no one dared to rent the house adjacent to Xiao Yatou's house.

It's better to charge a small rent than to have no income at all.

So Xiao Daguan's mother and son rented it for so many years.

Jiang Xiangliu said: "The rent of the big official's house is the cheapest in the entire Qing City, although it is due to the situation, but in the end, it is also because the landlord sees the big official's mother and son as pitiful, and the landlord is kind!" ”

This is true.

Even if you can't rent it out, as long as you try your best to attract tenants, there will always be people who don't believe in evil and are more greedy.

Xiao Daguan's family is poor, but there are many people in Qingcheng who are as poor as Xiao Daguan's family.

Yin Seventeen asked: "Did Ming Lu and Xiao Daguan have any big things happen with Wang Erzhu or Xiao Yatou back then?" Good or bad, is there any? ”

When Jiang Xiangliu heard this, he seemed to think of something, his face changed a few times, and finally stared at Yin Seventeen and asked:

"Yin Gongzi just said that as soon as Ming Lu heard that person's name, he would collapse and the official suddenly went out of order, all because of heart disease?"

Yin Seventeen nodded.

Heart disease, in layman's terms, refers to the disease of the heart, which is the knot of the heart.

This disease can be large or large, and it is not easy to treat, let alone break the root. (To be continued.) )
