Chapter 703, Red Boots
Jiahe asked the sons of the west one by one, and knew that one was in the west building.
The Qinshui Pavilion is not open during the day, and there are no outsiders in the building except for the people of the Qinshui Pavilion.
Chang Companion saw Zhiyi approaching and bowed, "I've seen the girl." ”
Zhiyi spread out Lao Chen's portrait, "Have you seen him?"
Chang Ban looked at it and shook his head, and Zhiyi asked again, "What time does Qin Shui Pavilion usually close?"
"Ugly times are over. ”
"If there are no guests, do you go back to your room to rest or stay outside?"
"Stay outside, Qin Shui Pavilion has a rule, as long as it doesn't close, we are not allowed to go back to the room to rest. ”
Chiichi pointed to the hall on the first floor, "Are you just sitting there?"
Chang Ban nodded, and asked again and again, "You are sitting in the hall, where are the maids?"
Some of them were listening, and some were cleaning. ”
Zhiyi remembered that the well of Qin Shui Pavilion was in the backyard, and water was needed to clean it, so it seemed that the person who cleaned it had a chance to meet the corpse burial.
"Yes, the body was found in the backyard, and the cleaners had to go get water, and the girl and the adults asked them, and maybe they would find it. ”
Chang Ban also thought of this, and Zhiyi approved, "You are quite clever." ”
"I don't dare to be clever, I just want to find the murderer as soon as possible. Because of the murder, the number of guests who came has dropped sharply, and many brothers have said that they will not be able to survive, and we all hope that the city will return to peace as soon as possible. ”
Qinshui Pavilion is one of the best gold sales places in a fierce city, and it is rumored that Qinshui Pavilion has a year's salary for five years, and Zhiyi smiled and said, "Not so much." ”
"Qin Shui Pavilion pays according to the number of guests received that day, there are few guests, and some people don't have a day to sit, but they can't survive, so everyone is anxious. ”
"Shouldn't the boss be the most anxious?" Zhi glanced at Qin Shuige, but didn't find the boss, "Your boss doesn't seem to be there?"
"The owner hasn't been here for a long time. ”
Qin Shuige is a chicken that lays golden eggs, chickens don't lay eggs, and the boss is not in a hurry, which is really strange.
Jiahe had already finished asking and was waiting on the side, and when he saw Zhiyi approaching in confusion, he said in a low voice, "The boss is General Gu's younger brother Shanping." ”
Knowing it suddenly, no wonder he didn't care about Qin Shui Pavilion, it turned out that his back was on Jinshan.
Jiahe found the little guy who was in charge of cleaning that day, interrogated them one by one, and finally asked for useful clues from a guy named Night Cat.
That night, just after the hour, there were not a few guests left in Qinshui Pavilion, and the little ones began to clean up, and the night cat was in charge of the guest room on the second floor.
There were stains in the room that the guests vomited after drinking, and the night cat sighed that he was unlucky, and went downstairs to the backyard to fetch water, and when he reached the well, he saw a person standing by the well.
The man was dressed in a military uniform, and the night cat did not dare to come forward, so he waited for him to go before approaching the well.
When he was fetching water, he found a large puddle of mud stains on the ground, thinking that it was left by the man, he didn't think much about it and rinsed it off, if it wasn't for Jiahe's special questioning, he wouldn't take it seriously.
Jiahe immediately checked the list of people who had been to Qinshui Pavilion that night, and found no officers or guards, and the two guessed that he might have climbed over the wall to enter Qinshui Pavilion, not a guest.
Zhiyi asked the night cat, "What kind of uniform is this man wearing?" ”
Night Cat scratched his ears, "It's a normal red and gray uniform, but his boots are red." ”
Jiahe and Zhiyi glanced at each other, "Are you sure?"
The night cat nodded, and Jiahe waved his hand to signal the night cat to go down, "Only soldiers above the captain level wear red boots." ”
"Don't you think it's strange, why doesn't he wear a nocturnal black coat instead of a military uniform?"
Jiahe nodded, "Yes, the military uniform is conspicuous, and the night clothes are more conducive to hiding your identity, and it is strange not to wear night clothes." ”
"There are two reasons, one is that he is on official duty, and he has to wear it because of the urgency of time, and the other is that it is easier to transport corpses than night clothes, and when the patrol is in the street, if one person wears black clothes and carries a cloth bag, it will arouse suspicion, but the person in military uniform will not. ”
Jiahe was taught to worship, and immediately went out of Qinshui Pavilion to investigate.
