Chapter 067: Catch it right
In the afternoon, in order to find his daughter, he ran until the evening, Shen Zhonglei asked someone to bring home the official business that he couldn't finish in the afternoon, and he planned to finish the day, but sitting at the table, he couldn't concentrate, and finally he was even more stunned.
"Master, the eldest girl asks to see you."
"Let her in." Shen Zhonglei came back to his senses and straightened his sitting posture.
"Daddy."
"Shu'er, it's a cold day, it's so dark, why are you here, can't you wait for tomorrow to talk about anything urgent?"
"The daughter doesn't want to disturb her father so late, but she is worried that something will happen tomorrow, and it will be unclear when the time comes."
Shen Zhonglei frowned and asked, "Shu'er, what do you mean by this?" ”
"My daughter implored her father to interrogate the two criminals overnight, so as not to have too many dreams at night and cause trouble."
"Shu'er, what are you implying by this?"
"Don't you think today's events are very strange?" Shen Tianshu said, "First of all, Cheng Gongzi suddenly fell ill in the garden, and when I left, I also told the two younger sisters to leave Mingyu to take care of the two, but when I helped Fan Gongzi deal with Cheng Gongzi's affairs and then came back, the two younger sisters disappeared, and asked the people in the garden, only to know that the second sister said that she wanted to go home, but she took everyone to the most remote northwest gate of the garden, and got into a stranger's car outside, does Dad think this is reasonable?" ”
Shen Zhonglei didn't know these details before, but when he heard Shen Tianshu coming one by one, he couldn't help but fall into contemplation.
"So what do you mean? Could it be that Yun Yao was sent to the door by herself and was kidnapped by the prisoner? ”
There was a hint of displeasure in Shen Zhonglei's tone, and he looked at Shen Tianshu with twisted eyebrows.
Shen Tianshu knows people like Shen Zhonglei, a typical patriarchal style, a small success in his career, he doesn't know anything about how to deal with family relationships, he is very confident, he feels that he teaches well, everyone in the family is kind and beautiful, and he can't listen to the slightest objection.
At this time, if she said that she doubted Shen Yunyao, Shen Zhonglei would not only not believe it, but would definitely try her best to protect Shen Yunyao.
Naturally, she would not make such a low-level mistake.
"Dad, think about it, who is the strangest person who appeared in today's incident?" Shen Tianshu slowly guided, and after making sure that Shen Zhonglei followed his train of thought and fell into contemplation again, he reminded, "You said before, how did you get the handkerchiefs and letters of your two sisters?" ”
"It's Yihao who hurriedly came over and handed it over to ......" Shen Zhonglei was not stupid originally, but today he was just concerned about it, and he didn't suspect his family, so he didn't think of the problem, and he was reminded by Shen Tianshu at this time, and he also felt that Xu Yihao was very suspicious.
"Yes, Dad, you think, if the prisoner really deliberately robbed the two younger sisters, it must be to know in advance which girls they are, not to mention how bold they are to send letters to the yamen to ask for money, the yamen is full of people every day, he throws things on the side of the road at the door, what if someone picks them up? What if you get kicked away by a child? There are so many variables. ”
"Yi Hao said at the time that he bumped into a person sneaking around at the door, and that person probably saw him nervous and threw things down......" Shen Zhonglei said more and more powerless, and even he felt that he couldn't explain it.
Although Xu Yihao is the nephew of the Xu family, his family is not in Yongzhou Mansion at all, and he has lived in the Shen family for less than two months.
Since that person is here to make money, how can he throw away something vital so rashly.
And he clearly remembered that when Xu Yihao came over with something, the layer of paper wrapped on the outside was very dirty.
With his understanding of Xu Yihao, let alone such a dirty paper bag being thrown on the ground, even if it was a silver horn on the ground, he would not bend down and pick it up with condescension.
Shen Zhonglei's expression finally became solemn,
"Shu'er, you mean that this matter is related to Xu Yihao?"
"I'm just guessing." Shen Tianshu said, "Whether it's or not, my father should interrogate the prisoner as soon as possible, I always have a sense of foreboding, I think that after tonight, something will happen." ”
Shen Zhonglei was already very tired today, and he didn't want to stay up late to go to the prison to interrogate the prisoners, and when he heard this, he said: "The prison is heavily guarded, even if Xu Yihao has something to do with this matter, he doesn't have the ability to enter the dungeon to do anything." ”
"Xu Yihao may not have this ability, but what if someone in the family helps him?" Shen Tianshu said cautiously, "Mother usually loves Cousin Yihao so much, in case my cousin begs for my mother's head, my mother is protective of her nephew, if she doesn't notice anything for a while, she will ......."
Shen Tianshu saw the look of resistance in Shen Zhonglei's eyes, and said deliberately: "It's all my fault that I'm too anxious, in fact, it doesn't matter if there is a problem with the two prisoners, Fan Gongzi has been involved in this matter from beginning to end, and you can also find him as a circumstantial evidence......"
As soon as Shen Zhonglei heard Fan Gongzi, he immediately came to his senses.
Such a shameful thing is known by Fan Gongzi, which is equivalent to being known by Rui Wangfu.
In the northwest corner this afternoon, Fan Gongzi also said that he would come to visit in a few days.
The good ones came to visit something, apparently to find out how things were going.
If he is not active enough in his investigation, and even asks Fan Gongzi to testify in the end, it will be too embarrassing for him to be the prefect of Yongzhou.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhonglei finally got up and said, "Shu'er is right, I'll go to the cell tonight and ask first." ”
Thinking that the matter was likely to be related to Xu Yihao, Shen Zhonglei was also very unhappy.
Even if he was telling the truth, if he had been able to catch the messenger at that time, he might have found some clues, but in the end he let the person go in vain.
"You go back, I'll go to the Yamen prison to have a look." Shen Zhonglei got up and put on a big hat, and when he got closer, he saw something yellow hanging between the hair strands of Shen Tianshu's sideburns.
"What's going on?"
Shen Zhonglei just wanted to take a closer look, but Shen Tianshu dodged quickly, and even lowered his head to avoid his gaze and said, "Dad, it doesn't matter." ”
Shen Zhonglei immediately said: "Hurry up, otherwise I won't go to prison." ”
Shen Tianshu lowered his head and looked at his toes and said, "Just now, my mother heard about today's incident from someone and thought that I didn't take a good look at my sister and almost killed my second sister, so she went to my room and reprimanded me a few words......"
"Reprimand? What reprimand can make it like this? Shen Zhonglei said angrily.
"Mother just feels sorry for her second sister, it's just impulsive, dad don't be angry about this."
"Yun Yao is her daughter, aren't you?" Shen Zhonglei said angrily, "If you don't have an accident, you really can't see that she is so favoritous!" ”
