Chapter 85: Rock Sugar Meat (3)
Liu Yiyi pointed out that what she suspected was not a certain yacha, but Lu Tingqi and Lu Zong's head catcher.
Lu Tingqi still cried out for himself: "Miss Liu, I missed it because I was trying to rescue you!" "Isn't it right to save people?
Is she ungrateful? Liu Yiyi didn't feel guilty, why did the black-clothed masked man appear that day? Why did she spread rumors all over the city afterwards? It was Lu Tingqi who saved people, and it was not this famous arrester in Jiangnan who destroyed people?
"Miss Liu, do you still have any doubts?" This time, Lin Yuxiao took the initiative to ask.
"Nope." It is not easy for Liu Yiyi to summarize the three.
"It's hard Miss Liu, let's ask next," Lin Yuxiao raised his head and smiled at Lu Tingqi, "The content of my question will be a little repetitive with Miss Liu's, Mr. Lu doesn't mind answering again, right?" ”
Can't ask for it! Liu Yiyi and Du Shaonan are in good spirits, to be honest, they are not interested in this romance novel, the plot of the male protagonist and the female protagonist being noisy and enhancing their relationship is too vulgar, but it is the rivalry between Lin Yuxiao and Lu Tingqi that is exciting, especially when they didn't know that this was a series of texts, Lin Yuxiao is the real male protagonist, and he is very concerned about a few chapters.
Now that I can watch the live version with my own eyes, this is not a trip in vain.
Liu Yiyi is a fan of Lin Yuxiao, the male god is about to exert power, she can't help but be excited when she sits, her hands are a little damp, her body is a little shaky, and she can't take her eyes off it.
Du Shaonan simply appreciated the wonderful plot, biting sesame shortbread with tea, and nostalgic for the days when there was popcorn and coke.
"Lord Lin, please ask," Lu Tingqi didn't think that he wouldn't ask if he didn't agree with Lin Yuxiao. "But Lord Lin, can you let Lu take a look at the jade piece in your hand, if Lu is not mistaken. It should be a jade unicorn, right? ”
"It's the jade unicorn in the jade unicorn, what does this jade unicorn mean to Jiangnan, I believe that as the head of the famous Lu in Jiangnan, you must know, so I can't hand it over to you, in case I accidentally break a little jade slag, or scratch a little trace, I can't explain it there." Lin Yuxiao refused with a smile.
What does the jade unicorn represent to Jiangnan? Liu Yiyi didn't know. Because it was not written in the novel at all, she could only listen intently, hoping to find the answer from the words on both sides.
"It's really that pair of jade unicorns. So should Lu congratulate Lord Lin on finding stolen goods? But I don't know where Lord Lin found it? Lu Tingqi wanted to pretend to be a bystander, but his words couldn't hide a trace of eagerness.
Liu Yiyi and Du Shaonan, who were watching from the sidelines, frowned together, even if the jade unicorn was a lost property and a treasure, but as long as it was not a stolen one, Lu Tingqi could not be convicted. Lu Tingqi is not a fool who would rather give up his life than his wealth. Did he think about it so much that he almost lost his temper?
"It seems that Lin Mou said it just now, and I asked it first, but Mr. Lu really wants to know, as long as he answers Lin's question truthfully." When Lin Yuxiao wants to speak, how can he let others seize the right to speak.
"Lu also said it just now, and Lord Lin asked casually." Lu Tingqi re-put on a look of resignation.
"The first suspicion that Miss Liu just said, she thinks that the murderer is someone from the yamen, does Mr. Lu agree?" Lin Yuxiao was really repeating Liu Yiyi's question.
Liu Yiyi was embarrassed. If others don't know her, she will inevitably be weak-hearted, these words were originally her lines from Lin Yuxiao. As a result, it seems that Lin Yuxiao himself will not speculate on the credit for robbing her.
In fact, Liu Yiyi thinks too much about being a thief, how long has she been here in this time and space? The original heroine has been publicized here for seventeen years, Governor Li thinks that Miss Liu has no brains, and Lu Tingqi prefers this simplicity that is not polluted by the world, if Liu Yiyi is holding a sword on his neck to let him admit it, Lu Tingqi will still believe that this is her own words and deeds, but sit down and analyze it a little bit......
Are you sure someone secretly transmitted the secret into the secret and taught her word by word? Or did you write it down for her to memorize beforehand?
Therefore, Lu Tingqi's questioning of Liu Yiyi can be divided into two uses, Lin Yuxiao asked him personally, he thought about it carefully, and replied again and again: "It is not impossible for the prison to steal, but Lu also said that the brothers in the yamen are all innocent, if they suspect their own people without evidence, I am afraid that the brothers will chill." ”
"But if you don't find out the real culprit for a long time and let him mix in the middle of the good people, won't it be even more panicked, and the brothers will be even more suspicious of each other, and it will hurt the harmony even more, besides, Miss Liu just suspects that people in the yamen are better at committing crimes, and I asked if there is such a possibility, and Mr. Lu only needs to answer yes or no." Lin Yuxiao explained.
Just asked if it was possible, who would dare to guarantee that there must not be, it has always been easier for the prison guard to commit theft than outsiders, and he even insisted on denying this point There is a suspicion of wanting to cover it up, Lu Tingqi thought about it for a while, and then nodded: "It's possible." ”
"Okay, Miss Liu's first speculation is true, let's talk about the second one, there will be no real killing in this world in invisible spells, surprise is true, the murderer is already standing by their side when the time comes, about this, Mr. Lu said that he can't get a record of scheduling, so he denies it, right?" Lin Yuxiao said and put the jade qi in his hand back into his sleeve pocket, and then took out another one and continued to play.
The corner of Lu Tingqi's eyes twitched, he couldn't see clearly, so he couldn't be sure if the one Lin Yuxiao was holding in his hand now was the one he had just put back, if it was, Lin Yuxiao's actions were completely targeted, if not, a pair of jade unicorns were all obtained by Lin Yuxiao, should he plan for the worst?
"Yes, there is no record of the brothers' standing at the time of the crime." Lu Tingqi was glad that Liu Yiyi asked this question first, so that he could answer it at the moment.
"But Mr. Lu also said that there is a record of when the brothers were on duty, since the Mengzhou strange case occurred, a total of seventeen people have received letters and their lives have been threatened, these seventeen people first exclude Young Master Du, and then exclude the three people who did not act after the murderer sent the letter after Qin sent a letter, a total of thirteen people, of which eight people lost their wealth to save their lives, and five people lost their money and property, right?" Lin Yuxiao counted first.
"Exactly." There is a record of this, and there is no need for Lu Tingqi to deny everything.
"So as soon as I came to Monju, I reviewed the case file, including a record of who was present at the time of the crime. Then I summed it up, there were thirteen cases, and there were five people who were all present on all thirteen occasions. Among them happens to be you, Mr. Lu, who catches the head. Lin Yuxiao said.
Lu Tingqi was stunned: "Five? "How can it be so little?
"It's only five, probably because the time of the crime was early in the morning, it's overtime, I checked, not all the people present every time are family, it's understandable to think about it, who doesn't want to guard the hot kang head of his wife and children on a cold day. Whoever let this murderer choose to do it after the autumn, if it is summer, the full attendance rate will be much higher. Lin Yuxiao said with a smile.
Lu Tingqi couldn't laugh, he was a foreigner who came to Mengzhou to be the chief catcher. And with an ulterior purpose, good popularity is a must, in order to make friends with subordinates, the means are naturally relaxed and gentle, who said that the wife is uncomfortable and the child is sick. Can he force people to work overtime or keep an eye on the murder?
As a result, there are only four people who are diligent and honest? Should he blame himself for being negligent? Or should we reward the four who are truly faithful?
"There were five of them. The scope has narrowed down so much that it is too much to check, I went to ask each one, I was afraid that they would not be able to remember the mistake and asked them to be on duty with them, usually close to each other, with the status of master and apprentice, etc., but the result is not a coincidence? Three of them were on duty thirteen times, five times outside the living room, and another stood guard at the door of the living room three times. Only Mr. Lu catches the head, you stay by the victim's side every time, close at hand. Lin Yuxiao also emphasized the distance at the end.
Lu Tingqi finally fell silent at this time. The atmosphere present suddenly became tense, Liu Yiyi was ready to flee at any time, Du Shaonan didn't dare to eat snacks leisurely, he still held the tea bowl in his hand, and it could also be used as a secret weapon when necessary.
Lu Tingqi took a while before he spoke: "Lu Mou, as the chief catcher, must be at the scene at the time of the crime, this is not only human nature but also duty, such a big case, even the saint is shocked, if Lu is not loyal and dutiful, Lord Qincha's reprimand is the right thing, Lord Lin said that you have checked all five people, but Lu Mou doesn't remember that you once asked me, the adult will not think that it was a person from the yamen who committed the crime before coming to Mengzhou, and then Lu, who is the chief catcher, became the most logical one?" ”
This is simply to say that Lin Yuxiao just wanted to close the case if he was wronged, Lin Yuxiao still smiled good-naturedly: "Mr. Lu remembered wrongly, Yuxiao once asked Mr. Lu to catch the head, whether you were present every time the case happened, you answered the responsibility and you must do it yourself, this is the first time you and I have met." On the fourth day of my visit to Mengzhou, I went to Yang's house, and you introduced me to the deployment inside and outside the Yang family. You say yes. Later, the black-clothed masked man who suddenly appeared in the Liu family was killed, and I asked you why you were there at the time, and you said that it was your duty to catch the murderer in the strange case of Mengzhou, and you can't be lazy just because Lord Qincha is there, right? ”
Lin Yuxiao counted from the beginning, he asked Lu Tingqi a total of three times, and completely overturned what Lu Tingqi said once he suspected that he was a murderer.
Lu Tingqi recalled carefully, it was really like that, Lin Yuxiao really asked him, but this Lord Lin didn't ask seriously and cautiously!
The first time was when they met for the first time, Lin Yuxiao's tone was extremely polite, and he was polite; The second time, Lin Yuxiao asked very casually, and he was upset because Yue Linfeng paid attention to Shangliu Yiyi, so he asked casually; The third time he had just killed someone, and there were many follow-ups to deal with, and Lin Yuxiao also seemed to be absent-minded because of the rumors about Yue Linfeng, so he also replied absent-mindedly.
“…… It's Lu who remembered wrongly, and Lord Lin asked, but it's indeed my duty to be present every time, and my lord won't condemn me because I'm too responsible, right? Lu Tingqi tried to relax a little, and he hadn't lost yet.
"Of course not, when did the Qin Cha handle the case not have evidence and make people confess their guilt convincingly," Lin Yuxiao's tone was extremely confident, "I don't hide it from Mr. Lu, I suspect that Mr. Lu will catch you, not only the three points that Miss Liu said, but also because I found out the cause of death of those victims, they were all killed instantly by the strange poison rainbow flower." ”
"Rainbow flowers?" Lu Tingqi pretended to hear this term for the first time.
"Rainbow flower is a rare poisonous plant in the southwest region, only live in the depths of the mountains, different from the town, people in a small village called the barbarians will boil, the barbarians lack iron tools, can only see the blood to seal the throat of the poison yao on the bamboo bow and arrow, in order to deal with large beasts, and this rainbow flower also has a very special place, that is, it is highly poisonous in the body of the living thing, but after poisoning the living thing, only a cup of tea time toxicity will be dissolved, just like a rainbow, Barbarians will be able to eat and sell non-poisonous prey. ”
Lin Yuxiao sighed, barbarians make poison to survive, but some people use it to harm people, how can it be the sin of plants.
"All things are mutually reinforcing, rainbow flowers will leave traces as long as they have existed, I was coated with 'golden clothes' on the silver needle during the autopsy, and it will become colorful when it encounters rainbow flowers and silver needles, so I can decide, and Mengzhou City has been to the southwest and the only one related to the barbarians is Mr. Lu to catch you, Mr. Lu caught the head You traveled to the southwest when you were a teenager, and made a feud with the barbarians, and when you grew up, you became a fast catcher, and because of a case, you went to the southwest, and the communiqué personal vendetta killed a few enemies of the year, and also got the rainbow flower, isn't it?"
Although he asked Lu Tingqi, Lin Yuxiao still smiled confidently.
Lu Tingqi's face turned blue, there is a record on his resume of going to the southwest to handle the case, and what kind of personal vendetta can not be determined by Lin Yuxiao's words, this has to be re-examined in the old case, but how could Lin Yuxiao know that he went to the southwest when he was a teenager and made a feud? Unless......
Liu Yiyi and Du Shaonan were also surprised, Lu Tingqi used the case to get the plot of rainbow flower killing, which was written in the novel, but he didn't mention it in this part of the novel when he was a teenager, so this is a hidden plot, or did it change because they crossed over?
No, it won't be because of the crossing, Du Shaonan calculated, he has traveled for seventeen years, but he has not had any contact with Lu Tingqi, otherwise even if he doesn't remember, with Lu Tingqi's hatred of the rich, he won't be eyeing him now, Liu Yiyi has only been through for half a year, and he won't change Lu Tingqi's youth, so ......
"Lord Lin, where did you get your jade unicorn?" Lu Tingqi couldn't sit still, and when he got up, Yue Linfeng took a step closer to Liu Yiyi, this obviously protective act in the novel got Lu Tingqi's resentful and resentful eyes countless times, but at this moment he didn't even have time to give a blank eye.
"Well, this matter starts with my disappearance before, that is, Xiao Tang, you investigated me in the yamen to check the file until late, and then no one saw me that night, in fact, I left the yamen by myself, because I remember that Shaonan Restaurant was going to open, and I promised to go to He, where can I break the appointment." Lin Yuxiao is very credible, but those who know him know that he is going to eat and drink.
"That day, Xiao Tang not only made assorted sugar buns, but also dried hydrangea scallops, which have been put hot on the stove waiting for you to come and eat." Du Shaonan said with a smile, he interjected at this time for a triple purpose, one was to please Xiao Tang, the second was to gluttonous Lin Yuxiao, and the third was to see that Lu Tingqi was really anxious to make him more anxious, as for whether he would pull hatred, Lu Tingqi still had time to find him?
