I went back to the house, and I didn't know what the people behind me were having. If it's just to harm the aunt, there is no need to take such a poisonous chronic medicine, if it's to take the soul to control the aunt's actions, it seems that no one has to harm, or rather, the murderer's key person, we don't know, the aunt is usually alone at home, and it is easy to become the murderer's slave.

"Why hasn't Madame come back yet?" As soon as I entered the mansion, Liu Chunfang happily asked me, "What happened?" ”

"Madame is very good, don't worry about my aunt."

"That's not necessarily, if something happens, the master will blame me, I don't want to be responsible."

"How does my aunt know that the master will blame you? Could it be that you did this? ”

"What?! How could I frame Madame? ”

"Then you say, what is the purpose of your drugging?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Forget it, Madame has already told the master, and Madame will tell the master everything, let alone this kind of thing."

Liu Chunfang didn't speak, but I could clearly see the fear in her eyes.

"Maybe Madame will be negligent, but we won't, let alone sir. Even if the aunt is pregnant with the lord's heir, what the lord wants is just the meat in the aunt's belly, not the aunt. ”

"You! How dare you go against me! Liu Chunfang wanted to beat me, but she probably remembered that she couldn't beat me at all, so her tone changed, and she pretended to be pitiful: "Oops...... It's really a headache for me, the master is not here, you are presumptuous, the heir in my belly can't stand your appearance, when he grows up, you just wait to suffer. ”

I ignored her, went directly to call two maids, brought some food and drink, and took the carriage to the suburbs.

"Ah Yan, you ......" I was about to speak, Ah Yan said: "Let me stay with my mother for the last night, I know, the weather is hot, and I can't let my mother stay ......here all the time."

"Let's just stay outside, if you're tired, sleep for a while, and if you're hungry, come out and get something to eat."

Ah Yan sobbed and didn't speak, but I was thinking about Liu Chunfang's reaction. I don't know what tricks this woman has for a while, but I know that what she wants most is the favor of the master, so the person she wants to harm the most is still Mrs.

A few of us walked out of the house, and Madame sat down on the stone steps in the courtyard and motioned for me to sit down, and I obediently walked over and sat down, and Madame asked, "Yuxing, the house is still stable, right?" ”

"Settle down, ma'am, it's all right."

"That's good, I'm afraid that if I'm not in the house, what will Liu Chunfang do...... But she should only want to harm me, Zhang Simei's identity is there, and the lord does not show any preference for Zhang Simei, Liu Chunfang will not be stupid enough to provoke Zhang Simei. And I'm just a civilian, equal to her, and the biggest threat to her......"

I couldn't help but be irritated when I heard it, thinking that this Liu Chunfang was so damned, she actually made the originally carefree lady live like a concubine in the palace, thinking about how to prevent Liu Chunfang every day. "Madam, don't think about it, don't we still have us to protect you? The lord is so partial to his wife, how dare Liu Chunfang mess around. ”

Madam looked in Ah Yan's direction, sighed, and said, "Ah Yan's matter, I also met it for the first time, tell me, what kind of person would do such a thing?" ”

"I don't know, but I think this person will come anyway."

"What do you mean?"

"Madam, Doctor Zheng said that the aunt was given a Soul Snatcher, but I think that the person who took the medicine was given a split liver and a Soul Snatcher at the same time."

"What is Soulsnatcher?"

"Soul snatching, very powerful medicine, the person who is drugged will obey all the instructions of the person who drugged it, this medicine is a forbidden drug, and the efficacy is also what I have heard, everyone in the rivers and lakes says so, and I have never seen it."

"That'...... I understand, you mean that the murderer wanted to control Ah Yan's mother, so he ordered the Soul Snatcher? ”

"Yes, but he used the wrong medicine, and if he used the medicine together, it would make the victim die faster and more uncomfortable. I don't understand this, if my aunt doesn't usually have anything to do with anyone, why would she be so blackhanded, I really can't figure it out. ”

"You can call Shangxuan to check on this."

"He? Forget it, this kind of unreasonable casualties of ordinary people, the yamen is too lazy to take care of it, and it is impossible to let a head catcher to investigate, it is estimated that he is too busy with the affairs of many big officials, how can he have air to manage the common people. ”

Madame stared at me for a moment and said, "You seem to hate him." ”

"Madam, to tell you the truth, except for the master, I don't have a good impression of other officials, the lord is good to us, we all know it, and I don't dare to praise the rest."

"It is true that some officials are corrupt and pervert the law, but that does not mean that all officials are like this. Although Xuan Gongzi is a head catcher, I still know a little about his personality, and he doesn't look like a corrupt official like you said at all. ”

"Madam, I don't know my face but I don't know my heart, if I hadn't said that I was a killer, would Madame have thought about it?"

Madam sighed and said, "Then what about today's affairs, Ah Yan can't give up finding the murderer, but how can she find it on her own?" ”

"I'll do my best to help, ma'am. At least I'd use my old thoughts to go to that person and what would I do if I were him. ”

"But ......"

Madame wanted to say something, but she never said it.

I waited all night, although I brought a lot of food, but no one had the heart to eat, in fact, I was used to seeing people die, I could eat it, but everyone didn't eat it, I couldn't eat it myself.

When it was dawn, Ah Yan walked out, the sunlight shining on her pale face, as if it was about to turn into a thin piece of paper, and the dried blood stains on her body were more eye-catching by the sun.

"Ah Yan, let's eat something." As soon as I stepped forward and said a word, Ah Yan's body softened, and I hurriedly hugged her and shouted, "Ah Yan! ”

Ah Yan was so sad that she fainted, and her wife hurriedly told me to go back to the house and call two guards to dispose of the body.

"Madam, that person is probably going to go, but I want to crouch there and see if I can catch him." I said.

"Do you want to ask the maid to accompany you?"

I shook my head and said, "Where there are dead, girls are afraid. I've dealt with dead people a lot in the past, and it's okay to go alone, and besides, it's easy to expose a lot of people. ”

A few people went back in the carriage to recuperate, I took a shower, ate a casual meal, and rode back to the suburbs.

There were only a few dilapidated houses nearby, uninhabited, and I climbed onto the roof of one of them, lay on the tiles, and kept my eyes on my aunt's house.

From the afternoon to the evening, when it was getting dark, I crept into my aunt's house, lit the lamp, disguised myself as someone was there, and went up to the roof. After waiting a little longer, I was hungry and didn't see half a figure. But I knew that only patience could wait for that person, so I continued to stare at my aunt's house.

At last a man came out of the darkness, slowly and hesitantly walked to the aunt's house, and knocked on the door. Seeing that no one answered, he looked around, kicked the door open, and walked in.

I hurriedly jumped down from the roof and leaned to the door to look, only to see the man leaning over close to my aunt's corpse, observing carefully, and not at all afraid. I tried to look closer, but there was a click under my feet.

The man turned his head sharply, and I didn't intend to peek at it again, so I simply walked in and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The man didn't look very old, his face was a little pale, and his eyes were full of fear. "You...... Who are you?! ”

"I'm my aunt's friend, what, are you too?"

"I am, of course I am, I've been friends with her for many years."

"Yes, this is my godmother, why have I never heard of you?"

"She's sure she did! You must have missed it! ”

"You look like my godmother's son when you look at your age, but unfortunately it's not, it's something like 'many years of friendship'." After I finished coldly, an arrow rushed behind him and clamped his right arm fiercely, but this guy was so thin that he didn't even have the strength to resist.

"Hero, spare your life! I'm really hers—"

"Less nonsense! What's your name, why did you come in, what was the purpose of coming in, and why did you drug your aunt?! ”

"I ...... I didn't do it! ”

"What's your name?"

The men under him didn't speak, but threw something on the ground with his left hand, and a large white mist floated on the ground with a pop, and my eyes were instantly so hot that I couldn't open them, and my men took the opportunity to escape.

When I finally opened my eyes, I was back to the way I was, my aunt's body was on the side, and the person seemed to have never appeared.

And I knew he wouldn't come back.
