Chapter 39: Night Detective
"Auntie, I know that your granddaughter has passed away, you are very sad, the white-haired person sends the black-haired person to feel uncomfortable, we are not here today to make matters worse, we also know that this happened to us, we are responsible."
While saying this, Qin Kexin took off the purse he brought from his waist, and handed the heavy purse to Li's hand.
Li looked at Qin Kexin with a suspicious face, and asked coldly, "What do you mean by this?" ”
"It's a little bit of our heart, after all, the lotus flower is something in our workshop, we can't have no responsibility at all, here is ten taels of silver, and I hope you can laugh." Qin Kexin's face was sincere, looking at the Li family.
But without saying a word, Li threw the purse to the ground again, and even took a sip.
"That's just a little bit of silver, and it's used as hush money, right? I tell you, my granddaughter's life is not in your place, you don't want to escape, I will report this matter to the official, my granddaughter who died unjustly, I must find out her real death. ”
Qin Kexin also looked at the Li family gloomily, and he was forced to take out the ten taels of silver by himself.
It stands to reason that the lotus matter can only be regarded as a work injury, and it is already too much for ten silver trucks to be given, and the real cause of death of this person has nothing to do with herself, so she sympathizes with others and gives so much money.
Who knew that this old woman not only did not appreciate it, but also took a bite back.
"Auntie, you also know that we are just a small shop, if you want to squeeze some oil out of our small shop, I'm afraid it will be more difficult than climbing to the sky."
Qin Kexin's words were very tactful, but Li understood it.
Li stood up suddenly, where was the weak appearance just now?
"What do you mean you damn girl? Do you mean that my wife blackmailed you today? ”
Qin Kexin's heart was alarmed, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Auntie, we also gave this money, and we apologized for apologies. If you are not satisfied with anything, you can bring it up again, so why choose such a lose-lose method as reporting to the official? ”
Li sneered, pointed at Qin Kexin's nose and began to scold.
"I'll tell you a cheap girl, you killed my granddaughter in that broken place, and it is natural to repay debts and kill people to pay for your life, either give me my granddaughter's life, or we will see you in the government!"
Before Qin Kexin could open his mouth, the Li family began to abuse again.
"Don't think I'm afraid of you if you open a small broken shop, even if the king of heaven comes today, he can't save you, and you don't want to be responsible for killing people? I tell you! There are no doors! Hit where I got it, go back to where I go, you're not welcome here. ”
With that, Li unceremoniously pushed the two out of the door and slammed the door shut.
Qin Kexin stood at the door with a heavy face, it seemed that this matter was going to be hidden.
"What can I do? If this old woman goes to report to the official, then our efforts these days will be in vain. ”
Aunt Mei was so anxious that she turned her head to look at Qin Kexin, who had a calm face.
Compared with Aunt Mei, who was anxious, Qin Kexin looked very calm, she turned around, frowning and thinking slightly.
"I think this old woman might be the one we're looking for."
Hearing this, Aunt Mei was suddenly a little incomprehensible, "What? How is this possible? She's the lotus's grandmother! ”
The way the old woman cried just now did make Qin Kexin very moved, but there was one thing that made Qin Kexin suspicious.
The lotus purse is carried with the body, basically never leaving the body, and the body of the lotus was only seen this morning, so where did the purse in the old woman's hand come from?
There is another one, although the old woman has been crying all the time, but the tears have not shed half a drop, and it seems that it is inevitably too fake.
After Qin Kexin raised these doubts, Aunt Mei seemed to be in thought.
Just now, because this old woman was too imposing, Aunt Mei didn't even question these things.
Now think about it, aren't these all suspicious places?
"You mean this old woman is looking for someone to buy someone to kill her granddaughter?"
Qin Kexin nodded slightly, "There is also a possibility." ”
"What?"
"Someone else hired this old woman to kill her granddaughter."
As soon as Qin Kexin's words came out, Aunt Mei suddenly felt a chill behind her, and the old woman just now cried so much that Aunt Mei thought how deep the relationship between their ancestors and grandchildren was.
Now that I think about it, this grandmother can actually kill her own granddaughter without blinking, and this kind of family affection is not needed.
"So this matter needs to be considered in the long run."
Qin Kexin nodded, frowned, and followed Aunt Mei back to the Silver Silk Hall.
The murder was too much of a coincidence, and the cause of Lotus's death was so strange that it was difficult for Qin Kexin not to pay attention to it.
"Who do you think is behind this?" Aunt Mei opened her mouth and asked Qin Kexin.
At this time, Qin Kexin broke away from her contemplation, she pondered for a while, and the red-clothed woman suddenly appeared in her mind.
"Red Smoke!"
Previously, Hongyan boasted that Haikou would make them unable to turn over forever, and the matter might try to check Hongyan's body.
But Aunt Mei, who heard this, was confused.
"Who's Red Smoke?"
"It's the boss of the Golden Jade Workshop."
Thinking of this, Aunt Mei couldn't help but feel creepy.
"For the sake of her business, a human life, she can actually destroy it without blinking."
It turns out that this is how the term femme fatale came about.
Qin Kexin's gaze gradually deepened, she could actually start investigating the case from Hongyan's body.
If Qin Kexin is not mistaken, Hongyan should not be from the capital, Hongyan's hometown is in the Western Regions, and the longest research in the Western Regions is those strange poisonous Gu techniques.
"I'm going to go to the Golden Jade Workshop tonight."
Hearing this, Aunt Mei hurriedly shook her head, "No, no, it's too dangerous for you to go alone, let's report to the official." ”
What's the use of reporting to the officer? There is no cooperation between the government and Jinyufang, and if Jinyufang is brought down, then the government will not let them go.
"We can't report to the official, we can only come out to investigate this matter ourselves, Jinyufang can get to this point today, there must be someone behind it, we can't touch the stone with eggs."
The only way is to find hardcore evidence, and at that time, even if the government wants to deny it, it can't be.
Even if Aunt Mei was reluctant, she could only nod, after all, there was only one way to do the current situation.
"Okay, then you must be careful after you pass, and you must pay attention to safety."
That night, Qin Kexin wore a night suit and secretly went to Jinyufang.
Because he had been here once, Qin Kexin was still familiar with this place, and he was familiar with the car and touched the room where he was locked before.
If Qin Kexin guessed correctly, this place should be Hongyan's bedroom.
When she came here before, Qin Kexin was thrown on the bed, and at that time, Qin Kexin noticed that the room was full of strange fragrance, and the dress was also very feminine.
Qin Kexin was pleasantly surprised to find that the window was not closed, so he secretly turned in through the window, because he had also practiced martial arts with Xiao Ruoxue for several years in the palace, so Qin Kexin still knew some basic skills. fluttering, Qin Kexin fell into this house.
After looking around, Qin Kexin breathed a sigh of relief.
Tonight, the red smoke is not in the bedroom, the room is quiet, which is very suitable for Qin Kexin's actions.
Qin Kexin looked around and slowly came to the bookcase.
This bookcase is one-sided, and after Qin Kexin looked left and right, he found a jade net bottle.
I can't say why, Qin Kexin felt that this bottle was very strange at first sight, and an extremely incongruous jade net bottle suddenly appeared in the pile of books.
Out of curiosity, Qin Kexin reached out and fiddled with it, but he didn't expect that the jade net bottle was firmly connected to the bookcase.
Qin Kexin was a little surprised, maybe this jade net bottle was something that could help him find the poison.
So, Qin Kexin gently twisted the jade net bottle.
Sure enough, with a click, the bookcase slowly opened a layer of dark compartments, which was a small drawer.
Qin Kexin's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and he hurriedly opened the dark grid, wanting to find what he was looking for.
But the dark grid was empty, and there was no poison that Qin Kexin was looking for.
Qin Kexin was a little confused, and looked back and forth several times before confirming that this dark grid was indeed empty.
What's going on?
Just when Qin Kexin was puzzled, a familiar and coquettish voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Miss Qin broke into my boudoir at night, is it because she is looking for this thing?"
This charming voice was accompanied by a string of silver bell-like laughter, and Qin Kexin's hair stood up even more when he heard this voice.
As soon as he turned around, Qin Kexin really saw Hongyan's charming face.
Hongyan was holding a delicate small porcelain bottle in his hand, and Qin Kexin could see a little bit of liquid shaking in the translucent porcelain bottle.
Looks like that's what I'm looking for.
At the same time, this also means that Qin Kexin has exposed his whereabouts.
"How did you know I was looking for this?" Qin Kexin took half a step back vigilantly, looking at the smiling red smoke in front of him.
Hongyan carelessly stroked the corners of his wrinkled clothes, and there was still a hint of bloodthirsty danger in his smile.
"You don't care how I know, just tell me, are you looking for this thing?"
Qin Kexin looked at the red smoke coldly, it seemed that the lotus must have been killed by the red smoke.
"You don't have to look at me like that." Hongyan pretended to be sad and frowned, "Although I did kill this lotus, how can you guard me like this?" ”
Hearing this, Qin Kexin was suddenly shocked, it turned out that the death of the lotus flower was really related to the red smoke.
