"Ma'am, go in. The maid Fu Yinyin returned to the hall.

Zhao Cheng Wangquan, Wu Guang and Sun Peng entered, closed the courtyard door, guarded all the entrances and exits, and acted low-key and quietly.

Fu Mingrui saw that the old slave should be the governor, so he looked at the old slave: "Who are you Lord Wang Yi?"

"The old slave is the steward of my family, and the lord gave him the name of Wang Fugui, and he has followed the lord for twenty years. Wang Laonu made a brief self-introduction.

Fu Mingrui nodded: "When did your family disappear? Where did you disappear? Does your family have an enemy or a mistress?"

Wang Lao Nu frowned: "My family...... Disappeared five days ago, it was in ......" Wang Laonu became speechless and stopped.

Fu Mingrui saw the clue and asked, "Is there anything inconvenient to say?"

Wang Lao Nu shook his head: "Hui Yu, it's because my family has disappeared strangely, old slave...... I am a little afraid to say it, I am afraid that if I say it, adults will not believe it. ”

What kind of person has Fu Mingrui never seen? Indeed, some people feel that they dare not say incredible things, for fear that they will be ridiculed or disbelieved by others if they say it, for example, someone once said that they saw people flying in the sky, but Fu Mingrui checked the real time, and it was brought up by a tornado.

Therefore, Fu Mingrui has seen a lot of things, and now, there is really nothing that can make him feel untrustworthy.

"Tell me about it. Let go of the bold. Fu Mingrui asked Wang Laonu to say boldly.

Wang Laonu nodded slightly, and said: "My family entered Beijing a month ago, so there is no enemy, and he is very low-key, and he is not looking for a mistress. But...... Ever since he bought that painting...... He became strange, he used to look at that painting all the time, just for one night......"

"Yes, yes, the adults used to love the concubine very much, but since he bought that painting, he looked at it when it was empty, and he hadn't had sex with the concubine for a long time......" Yin Yin raised her eyes and looked at Fu Mingrui aggrievedly, her cheeks were pink, and her eyes were full of spring.

Fu Mingrui twisted her eyebrows slightly, not looking at Yin Yin. He has investigated the case until now, and there is often such a situation, that is, after checking and checking, the young woman of the family began to flirt with him.

Zhao Cheng, who was standing outside, and the four of them saw it, but they also smiled silently. They don't know how many times they've seen this picture. Some even came to propose marriage after solving the case. Who made their family the top three beautiful men in the capital, and the lover in the hearts of thousands of girls.

"On the night when the adult disappeared, the adult was looking at the painting in the room, and the old slave remembered it clearly...... "Wang Lao Nu said while recalling, "Because the ginseng soup every night was sent by the old slave, and the old slave sent the ginseng soup to the adult as usual, and it should have been three o'clock in the evening, my lord...... Just like that, sitting in front of that painting, staring at that painting, the old slave greeted him, but he couldn't hear it. The old slave came out, closed the door, and then patrolled the house, and then in the morning when the old slave went to wake up the adult, the adult disappeared!"

When Wang Laonu said these words, those house slaves showed cautious expressions that seemed to be in conflict with evil spirits, and they stroked their arms one after another.

Fu Mingrui looked at the courtyard door after hearing this, and looked at the courtyard door: "When you get up the next day, can you find that the courtyard door is open?"

The old slave sighed: "The old slave understands what the adult means, and thinks that the adult may go out in the middle of the night, but when the old slave gets up the next day, the courtyard door is clearly tied inside, and if the adult goes out in the middle of the night, it is impossible to tie the door from the inside." Therefore, the old slave also looked around before and after, and the front and back doors were closed well, but the adults were gone, and the old slave also felt very strange.

"Then why didn't you report the case that day?" Fu Mingrui looked at Wang Laonu in a deep voice.

Wang Lao Nu tightened his eyebrows, showing a hint of civilian fear: "Because the old slave is not sure what happened, although it is strange, but he also does not dare to report to the official because the adult is not at home in the morning. ”

Fu Mingrui is already twisting his eyebrows, and the people in the market dare not take responsibility. This is something he often encounters in solving cases. Because many small people do not dare to take responsibility and do not want to cause trouble, they often delay some cases and even lose key clues.

However, this is human nature, and he has nothing to do.

And the Qianchao is respectful and humble, and the master's affairs are really not something that a servant can ask. This old slave did not dare to report the case precisely because of this humility and strictness. It stands to reason that Wang Yi's wife should report the case. However, Wang Yi did not bring a wife, but only a concubine, and the identity of this concubine is sometimes not as good as the loyal old slave housekeeper for the past twenty years.

In the end, it was Lin Zhengying who reported the case.

Fu Mingrui felt that she couldn't ask anything here, so she got up: "I want to see your master's room." ”

"Yes, please come with the old slave. Wang Laonu took Fu Mingrui into the backyard.

The small courtyard house, the front and back two courtyards, and eight rooms, are clear and clear.

Wang Laonu pushed Wang Yi's bedroom open: "This is the adult's bedroom, and the painting is hanging on the wall." Wang Laonu pointed to the painting on the wall.

Fu Mingrui looked at him: "What do you think...... Is the disappearance of your family related to that painting?" After all, this old slave is a person close to Wang Yi, and he must know Wang Yi's living habits very well, otherwise Wang Yi would not let him follow Beijing and be a housekeeper. The one who entrusts the family to him will be a man of great trust.

If a person's habits change suddenly, there must be something in it, and many clues are also derived from this.

Wang Lao Nu looked like he wanted to speak again, and from time to time he secretly looked at the painting twice, and his face showed a look like looking at an evil thing: "My lord, there are some things that the old slave doesn't dare to say." But it's true that after the painting was bought, the adults changed a lot, like ...... It's like being evil, staring at the painting every day, and sometimes talking to himself, very cautious...... "Wang Laonu said in the end, he didn't dare to look at the painting anymore, and lowered his face.

If it was before, Fu Mingrui didn't believe it, and he would feel that it was ignorant people who were thinking nonsense and confused again.

But since so many things have happened, and I went to the underworld to see ghosts, and now some things that are chattering about gods will also be put into Fu Mingrui's suspicions.

Fu Mingrui stood outside the bedroom, the bedroom was very clean, but for some reason, there was a faint smell of blood in the air. The eight doors of them are handling criminal cases, so the most they go to is naturally the scene of the murder, so he is very familiar with the smell of blood.

It was the smell of blood that made him suspicious. A clean room, where does the smell of blood come from?

He looked at Wang Laonu: "Steward Wang, since your family disappeared, have you entered this room again?"

Wang Laonu shook his head again and again: "Of course you can't enter, the adult is not there, and his bedroom can't be entered at will." ”

Fu Mingrui believed in the words of the king's steward, this master and servant were humble and red tape. If the master is not there, the servant will enter the master's room at will, and he will be beaten.
