She clearly remembered that after covering Chun Tao to death with a quilt last night, she was so scared that she left in a hurry.

But I remember clearly that I didn't close the door for Chun Tao! So who closed the door for Chun Tao after he left? She felt a slight sweat on her forehead, and a chill ran down her spine.

She thought silently in her heart, "Could it be that Chun Tao's body was discovered?" Impossible? If Chun Tao's body had been discovered, the courtyard of the sisters would have been a mess now, and it would have been impossible to be so quiet. What's going on? Forget it, just forget about it for now, let's go in and have a look. ”

Liuzhu didn't understand, she shook her head gently, took out the key from her arms and opened the door......

She stood at the door of Chun Tao's room, and let out a long breath at first. Then he mustered his courage and looked into the room with his eyes wide open......

Fortunately, Chun Tao is still lying quietly on the bed, no different from last night.

Liuzhu relaxed slightly, she took a deep breath, plucked up her courage, and walked in generously......

She stretched out her hand and lifted a corner of Chun Tao's quilt, pretending to have just found out that Chun Tao was dead......

"Ahh Liuzhu shouted......

"Come on, people! It's a big deal, Chun Tao seems to be dead! ”

Then she ran out screaming......

Mengyun raised an eyebrow, and she let out a long breath and retracted her thoughts......

If that's the case, then everything will be fine.

However, Mengyun thought of Liuzhu's thin body and her slender hands.

She began to ask herself again and again in her heart, "Is the murderer who killed Chun Tao really Liuzhu?" ”

Thinking, thinking, Mengyun gradually fell asleep......

"Whew...... Call...... Whew"

August 16.

In the early morning, the sky was blue.

The sun has just risen through the clouds.

The soft light it emits is quiet and elegant, and the light shining on the human body makes people feel relaxed and comfortable......

Mengyun got up early.

After a simple grooming and dressing, she walked out of the small courtyard where the maids lived with brisk steps.

She wanted to go to the "Wind Moon Pavilion" to have a good look......

She first stood in the courtyard of her sisters and looked around casually......

Actually, there was nothing to see, she just wanted to breathe a few more breaths of the fresh morning air here......

The sun shone on the lawn around him, the dew was shining, and the cool morning breeze was blowing beside him, with a faint fragrance.

Around the yard, there are a few feathered birds singing to their heart's content.

Mengyun saw that a few flowers were also blooming this morning, and she felt that she was in a particularly good mood today......

Mengyun hummed the little song she had learned with her sisters, and she walked into the 'Wind Moon Pavilion' with brisk steps.

'Fengyue Pavilion' is the residence of the top sisters, and it will naturally be cleaned by the maids.

Mengyun stepped on the wooden stairs and slowly walked up to the second floor......

The second floor is a long corridor, and the overall area of the corridor is not very large.

On the south side of the corridor there is a row of red-painted wooden fences, while on the north side are the four rooms where the four big names live.

Directly facing the staircase is a double carved window, and in front of the window there is a small space. There are several pairs of rosewood trellises, and on top of the trellises are several pots of flowers in full bloom.

Mengyun's eyes widened, and she began to search carefully on this side wall of Qiulan's room......

She searched for a long time, but found nothing.

Her eyes were half-squinted, slightly deflated. At the same time, he thought in his heart, "It seems that the night Chun Tao died, Liuzhu was not hidden here. ”

Mengyun was a little disappointed, she shook her head slightly, slowly walked down the stairs, and came to the hall on the first floor.

In the hall, there are only a few wooden cabinets near the walls, on which are neatly placed some modern vases and less valuable porcelain, and on the empty snow-white walls are a few landscape calligraphy and paintings.

Mengyun first glanced at the entire hall. Finally, her eyes were fixed on the corner of the staircase......

There was a large round pillar that led up to the roof of the second floor.

Mengyun thought silently in his heart, "If Liuzhu hides behind this big pillar, the people upstairs should not be able to see it." ”

She first went to the back of the stairs and took a general look, but found nothing.

She walked around the pillar again and looked around carefully......

The large pillars are wooden, and the surface is painted with a layer of red paint.

Mengyun crouched down and looked from under the large pillar.

She looked up carefully, little by little......

Finally, she made a discovery.

Close to her height, there was a small piece of paint that had fallen off the paint, and a few long strands of hair hung from it.

Mengyun stretched out her hand, she carefully plucked these long hairs, put them in a handkerchief and looked at them carefully......

These are a few long white hairs, and if it weren't for her sharp eyes, it would have been really hard to spot.

Mengyun thought in his heart, "In the 'Fengyue Tower', only Liuzhu's hair is white. It seems that on the night Chun Tao died, Liuzhu did not go back to the room immediately after leaving Chun Tao's room, but hid here to eavesdrop......"

Actually, it's not a big deal for Liuzhu to eavesdrop on Xia He and Chun Tao's quarrel, but why would she lie? Could it be that she is really the murderer of Chun Tao? It seems that it is necessary to have a good chat with her.

Mengyun is now very happy to have found the clue to 'Liuzhu's hair'.

She carefully wrapped the 'beaded hair' in a handkerchief, put it in her arms, and jumped to the door of Dongmei's room.

She was about to reach out and knock on the door, but Dongmei opened the door from the inside......

She saw Mengyun standing at the door of the room early in the morning.

She quickly showed a surprised expression on her face, and said with a smile: "Oops! What's going on today? How did you come so early? Could it be that the sun is coming out in the west? ”

Mengyun didn't speak, she just smiled.

She walked in and sat on the chair next to the table, and asked very happily, "Sister, just now, guess what I found?" ”

Dongmei rolled her eyes, revealing a wicked smile, and she said, "I guess, it must be Zhang Erbao who gave you a dowry." ”

Hearing Dongmei's teasing words, Mengyun's smile collapsed from his face in an instant.

She said listlessly: "Sister! Early in the morning, can you not mention him? I'll tell you! I just found a couple of long white hairs on the big pillar on the first floor. ”

As he spoke, Mengyun took out a handkerchief wrapped in long hair from his arms, opened it carefully, and put it in front of Sister A.

Dongmei stretched out her hand to take the handkerchief, looked at it carefully for a while, and then put it under her small and delicate nose and sniffed it......

After a while, she thought about it and said, "These long white hairs must be beady, and only her hair is white in the 'Fengyue Tower'. It's just that in addition to a faint floral fragrance on this hair, there seems to be a smell similar to kitchen fumes, but this smell is too faint for me to be sure. ”

After a pause, Dongmei said suspiciously: "It's really strange! Liuzhu is Chun Tao's personal maid, it stands to reason that she shouldn't often go to places like the kitchen? However, these long hairs at least prove that Liuzhu lied. On the night of Chun Tao's death, after she came out of Chun Tao's room, she did not go back to her room immediately, but hid behind a large pillar on the first floor. It seems that she heard the whole process of Xia He and Chun Tao's quarrel. But the question is, why would she lie? Behold! There is only one answer, she is the murderer of Chun Tao. ”

Mengyun held the handkerchief in her hand, and she also put it under her nose and sniffed it gently.

There was a faint smell of flowers, but she didn't smell the smell of oil smoke.

Mengyun thought for a moment and said, "There are only two possibilities for Liuzhu to lie. The first possibility is that she is the murderer of Chun Tao. The second possibility is that she may know who the killer is. ”

Dongmei also thought about it, she nodded slowly, and said, "You better come over and help me comb my hair first, and we'll go to Liuzhu together to ask in detail later." ”

"Hmm."

Mengyun agreed, she stood up, and walked to Dongmei's side.

She casually picked up the wooden comb on the dresser.

Dongmei sat on the stool in front of the dresser, she stretched out her hand to hold the bronze mirror in front of her closer, and adjusted the angle of the mirror.

Mengyun stood behind Dongmei, and she stared blankly at the slightly tilted mirror.

Through the mirror of the bronze mirror, she can not only see Dongmei's beautiful face, but she can also see the beams of the roof.

Mengyun was slightly stunned, she frowned, and the hand holding the wooden comb slowly drooped down, and she fell into deep thought......

Dongmei saw that Mengyun was stunned, she blinked her beautiful eyes, couldn't help but laugh and tease her, and said, "What's wrong?" What are you thinking? You're not going to be fooled by my beauty again, are you? Hurry up and comb my hair! Feed! Little girl, don't think about it anymore, are you thinking about Zhang Erbao's stinky boy again? Don't think about him! Feed? Wake up! ”

I saw Mengyun pat Dongmei's shoulder hard, and she said loudly: "Sister, I know what's going on." ”

"Oops! It hurts! What's going on? Dongmei stretched out her white hand, and she gently rubbed her shoulders and asked.

Mengyun explained, "Qiulan once said that after the murderer entered Chun Tao's room, he once stood in the room for a short while. It was him standing in front of Chun Tao's dresser, and he wanted to take the jewelry from the dresser. Then after he covered the spring peach with the quilt, he went around the room again, and then he suddenly ran away in a panic. I've always been puzzled by the fact that he's going to run away suddenly. It wasn't until I saw the bronze mirror on my sister's dresser just now that I suddenly realized that this was the case. ”

"Oh? What the hell is going on? Tell me about it. Dongmei turned her head, she raised her eyebrows, expecting Mengyun to continue.
