Climbing over the wall, Jin Su and Bai Zhi tiptoed back to Hanlian Courtyard. It was inevitably eye-catching, and he rested after entering the house in the dark. I don't know if I was too tired, alert like her, and I didn't notice anything wrong in the room until the morning of New Year's Day......

"Ah————h

A scream shattered the silence of Hanryin.

All the maids gathered at the door, looking at the room with different looks, and when they saw her coming out of the inner room, they consciously lowered their heads and dispersed, pretending to be busy with the work in their hands, but their eyes still unconsciously glanced inside.

Inside the room, Bai Qi squatted at the table as if sobbing lowly.

"What's wrong?"

Walking quickly to Bai Qi's side, Jin Su saw clearly that three half-grown birds were lying on the ground, their round eyes still wide open, but they were no longer angry.

"Miss~" Bai Qian raised her head and called her, tugging at her sleeve helplessly, the sadness and helplessness in her eyes were like a mother who had lost her child.

"What's wrong with them? How so? Wasn't it okay yesterday? As the words fell, two tears the size of beans slid down their cheeks.

Jinsu exhaled heavily, took Bai Qi over and held her in his arms, gently soothing her back.

These three birds can grow so big, all thanks to Bai Qi's care, although it is only a few months, but they are indeed like her children. Now seeing them die so painfully, the saddest person is none other than Bai Qi.

"What are you doing?" Bai Zhi shouted in the courtyard, her tone still cold.

Seeing the maids looking into the house, Bai Zhi knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly handed the food she had taken back to Xing'er under the porch, and then strode into the house.

Seeing the death of the three birds, Bai Zhi was also stunned for a moment, but after all, it was a high-level killer who could stand alone in the Night Gate, and she quickly regained her composure.

After a brief examination, he replied softly, "The body is already cold, and it can be seen that he has been dead for less than two hours." There is a little foam on the edge of the beak corner, which can be seen that he died of poisoning, and the long neck can also confirm this. Looking around, not a single feather was spilled, which shows that before dying, he did not struggle for too long, and the toxicity attacked quickly, and there was a lot less pain. ”

In the last sentence, Bai Zhi deliberately said a lot softer, as if to make Bai Qi feel relieved.

"Good and decent, why are you poisoned? It's just three birds, and they haven't learned to spread their wings yet, so who would do this to them? Bai Qi was so unwilling that she asked with a whimper.

Bai Zhi quickly found the answer to this question. She got up and looked around, only the food box dumped on the table and the spilled snacks were unusual, she clearly remembered that the three of them had not opened the snacks when they went out last night. Now these snacks are spilled, it must be these little guys who are not eating them secretly, who knows the result......

Finding this problem, Bai Zhi immediately gave Jinsu a look.

Jinsu nodded in agreement. In fact, she noticed the spilled dim sum on the table when she came out of the inner room, but she was in a hurry to appease Bai Qian, and she didn't have time to investigate it carefully, and now Bai Zhi also had doubts about it, so she could basically conclude that there was something wrong with this dim sum.

Gently patted Bai Qi on the back and said, "No one wants to attack them, it's just that they stole snacks and gave us their lives!" ”

"What?" Bai Qi looked at Jin Su in surprise and wiped away the tears that were about to fall.

Getting up to the table, Jin Su twisted a little dim sum powder and sniffed it, frowned, and then asked Bai Zhi to take some water, dissolve some dim sum powder, and put it on the tip of his nose to explain carefully.

Bai Zhi and Bai Qi sisters both held their breath and stared at her intently.

"Hmph~" Jin Su snorted coldly, then picked up the handkerchief and wiped the things on his hands.

"How? Is it toxic? Bai Qian tilted his head and asked eagerly.

"Not only poisonous, but also a good poison that is not easy to detect, if there is no water, it is non-toxic, when it encounters water, it is highly toxic, and the rivers and lakes call this poison - see blood and seal the throat!"

"See blood seal your throat?" Bai Zhi muttered, and then sighed, "What a poisonous technique, such a poison, where can it be detected with a silver needle!" By the time you get it in your mouth, it's too late! ”

"Yes, this poison attacks very quickly, once poisoned, it is a god, and it is also weak." Jinsu went on to add.

"This snack ......" Bai Zhi stopped talking, looked at Jinsu, and the two exchanged eyes, and immediately called Xing'er in.

When Xing'er entered the house with her front feet, Bai Zhi went out, closed the door by the way, and stood under the porch to urge the maids in the courtyard to perform their duties and not to gather to discuss. With her guarding the door and Jinsu in the house, she can speak freely, and she doesn't have to worry about the ears on the wall.

Besides, after the apricot entered the house, she cowered at the root of the door, lowered her head, and didn't even dare to gasp.

"Who told you to bring this snack in?" Jinsu walked up to Xing'er, not angry and arrogant.

"Yes, it's the second miss......" Xing'er is stumbling, giving people a feeling of being a thief.

"Second Miss? How could it be the second miss? She ......" Bai Qi stood up and asked again and again.

"Baiji!"

Inevitably, Bai Qi didn't choose to speak, Jin Su stopped her in time, and said softly, "Why don't you go find a box to put them up first, so that they can be buried in the ground." ”

Bai Qian thought about it, nodded, and then ran out with red eyes.

There were only two people in the house, Jinsu and Xing'er, and Xing'er was quite loyal to Jinsu, so she told Jinsu everything about last night.

It turned out that when the three of them were talking and laughing in the house last night, An Xiayu came over with a food box and circled in the courtyard for a long time, but he didn't mean to knock on the door. At this time, Xing'er came out in a hurry, and An Xiayu handed her the food box, saying that it was a snack that An Heqing brought back from the palace and asked her to transfer it to Jinsu.

"Since it has been delivered to the door, why don't you send it in person and let you hand it over?" Jin Su wondered.

At that time, the slave maid was also curious, but the second lady said that she didn't want you to worry, and she was in a hurry to go back to accompany Mrs. Wang, so it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so she asked the slave and maid to do it for her. Moreover, she also specially told the slave maid not to tell you that she sent it herself! Xing'er said to herself, also full of suspicion.

Jin Su pinched his nose, thought for a moment, and saw Bai Qi come in with the box, so he ordered the two of them to find a quiet place and bury the three birds first. and instructed them not to discuss the poisoning until a conclusion had been reached.

Today is the first day of the new year, according to custom, she is going to celebrate the New Year for the old lady and An He, and when the housekeeper came to deliver the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner yesterday, she also specially advised. It just so happened that she also took the opportunity to inquire about the situation.

On the way to Yunxiang Courtyard, seeing that there was no one around, Bai Zhi and Jinsu talked about poison.

"You heard what Xing'er said just now, what do you think?" Jinsu asked.

"Although the second lady's behavior is a little strange, it shouldn't be her poison. Besides, the poison of seeing blood and sealing the throat is not common in the rivers and lakes, and it is definitely not a common person to be able to get this poison. Bai Zhi answered pertinently.

"Not bad."

"Isn't the young lady going to report this matter to the master?" Bai Zhi asked.

"For the time being, there is no need, the thing was nominally brought out of the palace by my father, and there are many people in the middle, and it is widely implicated. Besides, the top priority is to find out who asked Xia Yu to send it to us, and how much she knows. ”

"Oh, by the way, when I came back from eating just now, I saw a mother-in-law sneaking on the wall outside the gate of our courtyard. Bai Zhi said disdainfully.

"Can you see which courtyard it is?"

"No, I also wanted to follow a paragraph, but when I saw that the courtyard was unusual, I went with her." Bai Zhi said with some regret.

"It's okay, it's a fox that always shows its tail!"

Unconsciously, they had already walked outside Yunxiang Courtyard, and there were more maids and women coming and going, so the two of them were silent, and they just walked forward unhurriedly.

Unexpectedly, after a morning of tossing, she was still the first person to come to greet her, and the old lady was freshening up. It was also boring to sit in the house left and right, so Jinsu played with snowballs in the yard.

After a while, An Xia Yu arrived. When he saw Jinsu, he was immediately stunned in place, his expression was extremely nervous, and he didn't know whether he was sad or happy.

"What are you doing here! Is the first day of the new year going to stand in the way of Miss Ben? With an impatient voice, Anya Sheng came.

Jin Su stood in the center, staring at An Xiayu with an expressionless face, and An Yasheng who came in the next second.

"Ahh Are you a human or a ghost? Anya Sheng screamed, hid behind Qiu Yue, and covered her eyes and didn't dare to look at her.

"Heh~ This is strange," Jin Su hooked the corners of his mouth, slowly walked towards Anya Sheng, and joked as he walked, "But I haven't seen it for a few days, why can't the third sister tell if I'm a human or a ghost?" ”

gently patted An Xiayu's shoulder, and said, "Xia Yu, you tell the third sister, am I a human or a ghost!" Haha......"

An Xiayu came back to her senses and muttered, "Chief, eldest sister~ Happy New Year!" ”

"Happy New Year," after returning to Xia Yu, Jinsu looked at An Yasheng again and said with a smile, "Third sister, Happy New Year!" But looking at the third sister's expression, it seems that she doesn't want to see me! ”

"The ghost is not gone!" Anya Sheng scolded coldly.

Jin Su didn't care, still with a smiling face, stepped forward to An Yasheng's ear, and said in a voice that only she could hear, "I'm disappointed to see me!" Didn't anyone tell you, common poisons are useless to me! ”

After hearing this, Anya Sheng didn't rush to refute, and after glaring angrily, he glared at An Xiayu twice.

From this, it is enough to judge that An Yasheng also has a part in the poisoning matter.

After that, An Heqing arrived with Princess Jinyan, and Jinsu and other sisters worshiped the New Year one by one step and in accordance with the rules, received the hearts of the elders, chatted with them for a long time, and after lunch, they went back to each hospital.
